random32: add noise from network and scheduling activity
With the removal of the interrupt perturbations in previous random32
change (random32: make prandom_u32() output unpredictable), the PRNG
has become 100% deterministic again. While SipHash is expected to be
way more robust against brute force than the previous Tausworthe LFSR,
there's still the risk that whoever has even one temporary access to
the PRNG's internal state is able to predict all subsequent draws till
the next reseed (roughly every minute). This may happen through a side
channel attack or any data leak.
This patch restores the spirit of commit

random32: make prandom_u32() output unpredictable
Non-cryptographic PRNGs may have great statistical properties, but are usually trivially predictable to someone who knows the algorithm, given a small sample of their output. An LFSR like prandom_u32() is particularly simple, even if the sample is widely scattered bits. It turns out the network stack uses prandom_u32() for some things like random port numbers which it would prefer are *not* trivially predictable. Predictability led to a practical DNS spoofing attack. Oops. This patch replaces the LFSR with a homebrew cryptographic PRNG based on the SipHash round function, which is in turn seeded with 128 bits of strong random key. (The authors of SipHash have *not* been consulted about this abuse of their algorithm.) Speed is prioritized over security; attacks are rare, while performance is always wanted. Replacing all callers of prandom_u32() is the quick fix. Whether to reinstate a weaker PRNG for uses which can tolerate it is an open question. Commit |

These are the locking updates for v5.10:
- Add deadlock detection for recursive read-locks. The rationale is outlined
in:
224ec489d3cd: ("lockdep/Documention: Recursive read lock detection reasoning")
The main deadlock pattern we want to detect is:
TASK A: TASK B:
read_lock(X);
write_lock(X);
read_lock_2(X);
- Add "latch sequence counters" (seqcount_latch_t):
A sequence counter variant where the counter even/odd value is used to
switch between two copies of protected data. This allows the read path,
typically NMIs, to safely interrupt the write side critical section.
We utilize this new variant for sched-clock, and to make x86 TSC handling safer.
- Other seqlock cleanups, fixes and enhancements
- KCSAN updates
- LKMM updates
- Misc updates, cleanups and fixes.

timers: Mask invalid flags in do_init_timer()
do_init_timer() accepts any combination of timer flags handed in by the caller without a sanity check, but only TIMER_DEFFERABLE, TIMER_PINNED and TIMER_IRQSAFE are valid. If the supplied flags have other bits set, this could result in malfunction. If bits are set in TIMER_CPUMASK the first timer usage could deference a cpu base which is outside the range of possible CPUs. If TIMER_MIGRATION is set, then the switch_timer_base() will live lock. Prevent that with a sanity check which warns when invalid flags are supplied and masks them out.

timekeeping: Use seqcount_latch_t
Latch sequence counters are a multiversion concurrency control mechanism where the seqcount_t counter even/odd value is used to switch between two data storage copies. This allows the seqcount_t read path to safely interrupt its write side critical section (e.g. from NMIs). Initially, latch sequence counters were implemented as a single write function, raw_write_seqcount_latch(), above plain seqcount_t. The read path was expected to use plain seqcount_t raw_read_seqcount(). A specialized read function was later added, raw_read_seqcount_latch(), and became the standardized way for latch read paths. Having unique read and write APIs meant that latch sequence counters are basically a data type of their own -- just inappropriately overloading plain seqcount_t. The seqcount_latch_t data type was thus introduced at seqlock.h. Use that new data type instead of seqcount_raw_spinlock_t. This ensures that only latch-safe APIs are to be used with the sequence counter. Note that the use of seqcount_raw_spinlock_t was not very useful in the first place. Only the "raw_" subset of seqcount_t APIs were used at timekeeping.c. This subset was created for contexts where lockdep cannot be used. seqcount_LOCKTYPE_t's raison d'être -- verifying that the seqcount_t writer serialization lock is held -- cannot thus be done.

timekeeping: Provide multi-timestamp accessor to NMI safe timekeeper
printk wants to store various timestamps (MONOTONIC, REALTIME, BOOTTIME) to
make correlation of dmesg from several systems easier.
Provide an interface to retrieve all three timestamps in one go.
There are some caveats:
1) Boot time and late sleep time injection
Boot time is a racy access on 32bit systems if the sleep time injection
happens late during resume and not in timekeeping_resume(). That could be
avoided by expanding struct tk_read_base with boot offset for 32bit and
adding more overhead to the update. As this is a hard to observe once per
resume event which can be filtered with reasonable effort using the
accurate mono/real timestamps, it's probably not worth the trouble.
Aside of that it might be possible on 32 and 64 bit to observe the
following when the sleep time injection happens late:
CPU 0 CPU 1
timekeeping_resume()
ktime_get_fast_timestamps()
mono, real = __ktime_get_real_fast()
inject_sleep_time()
update boot offset
boot = mono + bootoffset;
That means that boot time already has the sleep time adjustment, but
real time does not. On the next readout both are in sync again.
Preventing this for 64bit is not really feasible without destroying the
careful cache layout of the timekeeper because the sequence count and
struct tk_read_base would then need two cache lines instead of one.
2) Suspend/resume timestamps
Access to the time keeper clock source is disabled accross the innermost
steps of suspend/resume. The accessors still work, but the timestamps
are frozen until time keeping is resumed which happens very early.
For regular suspend/resume there is no observable difference vs. sched
clock, but it might affect some of the nasty low level debug printks.
OTOH, access to sched clock is not guaranteed accross suspend/resume on
all systems either so it depends on the hardware in use.
If that turns out to be a real problem then this could be mitigated by
using sched clock in a similar way as during early boot. But it's not as
trivial as on early boot because it needs some careful protection
against the clock monotonic timestamp jumping backwards on resume.

timekeeping: Utilize local_clock() for NMI safe timekeeper during early boot
During early boot the NMI safe timekeeper returns 0 until the first clocksource becomes available. This prevents it from being used for printk or other facilities which today use sched clock. sched clock can be available way before timekeeping is initialized. The obvious workaround for this is to utilize the early sched clock in the default dummy clock read function until a clocksource becomes available. After switching to the clocksource clock MONOTONIC and BOOTTIME will not jump because the timekeeping_init() bases clock MONOTONIC on sched clock and the offset between clock MONOTONIC and BOOTTIME is zero during boot. Clock REALTIME cannot provide useful timestamps during early boot up to the point where a persistent clock becomes available, which is either in timekeeping_init() or later when the RTC driver which might depend on I2C or other subsystems is initialized. There is a minor difference to sched_clock() vs. suspend/resume. As the timekeeper clock source might not be accessible during suspend, after timekeeping_suspend() timestamps freeze up to the point where timekeeping_resume() is invoked. OTOH this is true for some sched clock implementations as well.

A set oftimekeeping/VDSO updates:
- Preparatory work to allow S390 to switch over to the generic VDSO
implementation.
S390 requires that the VDSO data pointer is handed in to the counter
read function when time namespace support is enabled. Adding the pointer
is a NOOP for all other architectures because the compiler is supposed
to optimize that out when it is unused in the architecture specific
inline. The change also solved a similar problem for MIPS which
fortunately has time namespaces not yet enabled.
S390 needs to update clock related VDSO data independent of the
timekeeping updates. This was solved so far with yet another sequence
counter in the S390 implementation. A better solution is to utilize the
already existing VDSO sequence count for this. The core code now exposes
helper functions which allow to serialize against the timekeeper code
and against concurrent readers.
S390 needs extra data for their clock readout function. The initial
common VDSO data structure did not provide a way to add that. It now has
an embedded architecture specific struct embedded which defaults to an
empty struct.
Doing this now avoids tree dependencies and conflicts post rc1 and
allows all other architectures which work on generic VDSO support to
work from a common upstream base.
- A trivial comment fix.

Pull timekeeping updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A set of timekeeping/VDSO updates:
- Preparatory work to allow S390 to switch over to the generic VDSO
implementation.
S390 requires that the VDSO data pointer is handed in to the
counter read function when time namespace support is enabled.
Adding the pointer is a NOOP for all other architectures because
the compiler is supposed to optimize that out when it is unused in
the architecture specific inline. The change also solved a similar
problem for MIPS which fortunately has time namespaces not yet
enabled.
S390 needs to update clock related VDSO data independent of the
timekeeping updates. This was solved so far with yet another
sequence counter in the S390 implementation. A better solution is
to utilize the already existing VDSO sequence count for this. The
core code now exposes helper functions which allow to serialize
against the timekeeper code and against concurrent readers.
S390 needs extra data for their clock readout function. The initial
common VDSO data structure did not provide a way to add that. It
now has an embedded architecture specific struct embedded which
defaults to an empty struct.
Doing this now avoids tree dependencies and conflicts post rc1 and
allows all other architectures which work on generic VDSO support
to work from a common upstream base.
- A trivial comment fix"

A set of posix CPU timer changes which allows to defer the heavy work of
posix CPU timers into task work context. The tick interrupt is reduced to a quick check which queues the work which is doing the heavy lifting before returning to user space or going back to guest mode. Moving this out is deferring the signal delivery slightly but posix CPU timers are inaccurate by nature as they depend on the tick so there is no real damage. The relevant test cases all passed. This lifts the last offender for RT out of the hard interrupt context tick handler, but it also has the general benefit that the actual heavy work is accounted to the task/process and not to the tick interrupt itself. Further optimizations are possible to break long sighand lock hold and interrupt disabled (on !RT kernels) times when a massive amount of posix CPU timers (which are unpriviledged) is armed for a task/process. This is currently only enabled for x86 because the architecture has to ensure that task work is handled in KVM before entering a guest, which was just established for x86 with the new common entry/exit code which got merged post 5.8 and is not the case for other KVM architectures. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJHBAABCgAxFiEEQp8+kY+LLUocC4bMphj1TA10mKEFAl82sRkTHHRnbHhAbGlu dXRyb25peC5kZQAKCRCmGPVMDXSYoUs2D/9IZuALnVXtnvsOQh5uMRpxr/I6tpQm KJSRkcSSne9rIV3dQlswDdaT7bGibd7pbKQOnlA0vc37vDwaJHEzmTOJGpHpHnMA fHH2QP3LL2oZ1d7DG6eNJESCmaFBcaYXNbKtluOWQzHQhd9P8yHb4N+kzfxHK0Fr uNd+cd6T658xPsNOLaLP3MG2Yz0rVt2F5c1v8n78NfibeKckYhPov8cwVrf2WGWr XFHKorx4lXZ+vFwKEeZ7qQtqvAsLDixgMkFfY2GGSPhd1AMAaIUICZgsdEj2gg7H YK+lwA0uoqPaXshOCmdkCLkfPA7BRmAySWE7jUPbIvRqM94Uapk9+4CqjgiH1Qs+ T8CWbcZk8tZACFrouhZkhrnjUTev/vE7oirsjn26DRY68/Ec7llpCOjvVA7HZWqN vJ/BN35IufA7WEkf2TWNv5mg1zIlHI0O17zDifFq4g2VKFDVvQB0QYWlvug/eAu9 zYNX3WwA/IP8C9EOHZt54e6AKH8F3dT04oLFUkmRIcVKv1SEbdFufVfV7RavPEwK P21JNXPDdd0aLUO7ksqyQN7pyR3puGXSCb5NAPtZY6UWSMN4G/3SVry3mJa/0BJd mn+uYGpo9vmceh90vAHBoGIena/pez/PyRLWgGeT9jMjk95rNY0sEhaLEAOF9AR5 ck+3K2rY0S3wwQ== =Reot -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'timers-core-2020-08-14' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull more timer updates from Thomas Gleixner: "A set of posix CPU timer changes which allows to defer the heavy work of posix CPU timers into task work context.

A set of locking fixes and updates:
- Untangle the header spaghetti which causes build failures in various
situations caused by the lockdep additions to seqcount to validate that
the write side critical sections are non-preemptible.
- The seqcount associated lock debug addons which were blocked by the
above fallout.
seqcount writers contrary to seqlock writers must be externally
serialized, which usually happens via locking - except for strict per
CPU seqcounts. As the lock is not part of the seqcount, lockdep cannot
validate that the lock is held.
This new debug mechanism adds the concept of associated locks.
sequence count has now lock type variants and corresponding
initializers which take a pointer to the associated lock used for
writer serialization. If lockdep is enabled the pointer is stored and
write_seqcount_begin() has a lockdep assertion to validate that the
lock is held.
Aside of the type and the initializer no other code changes are
required at the seqcount usage sites. The rest of the seqcount API is
unchanged and determines the type at compile time with the help of
_Generic which is possible now that the minimal GCC version has been
moved up.
Adding this lockdep coverage unearthed a handful of seqcount bugs which
have been addressed already independent of this.
While generaly useful this comes with a Trojan Horse twist: On RT
kernels the write side critical section can become preemtible if the
writers are serialized by an associated lock, which leads to the well
known reader preempts writer livelock. RT prevents this by storing the
associated lock pointer independent of lockdep in the seqcount and
changing the reader side to block on the lock when a reader detects
that a writer is in the write side critical section.

posix-cpu-timers: Provide mechanisms to defer timer handling to task_work
Running posix CPU timers in hard interrupt context has a few downsides: - For PREEMPT_RT it cannot work as the expiry code needs to take sighand lock, which is a 'sleeping spinlock' in RT. The original RT approach of offloading the posix CPU timer handling into a high priority thread was clumsy and provided no real benefit in general. - For fine grained accounting it's just wrong to run this in context of the timer interrupt because that way a process specific CPU time is accounted to the timer interrupt. - Long running timer interrupts caused by a large amount of expiring timers which can be created and armed by unpriviledged user space. There is no hard requirement to expire them in interrupt context. If the signal is targeted at the task itself then it won't be delivered before the task returns to user space anyway. If the signal is targeted at a supervisor process then it might be slightly delayed, but posix CPU timers are inaccurate anyway due to the fact that they are tied to the tick. Provide infrastructure to schedule task work which allows splitting the posix CPU timer code into a quick check in interrupt context and a thread context expiry and signal delivery function. This has to be enabled by architectures as it requires that the architecture specific KVM implementation handles pending task work before exiting to guest mode.

timekeeping/vsyscall: Provide vdso_update_begin/end()
Architectures can have the requirement to add additional architecture specific data to the VDSO data page which needs to be updated independent of the timekeeper updates. To protect these updates vs. concurrent readers and a conflicting update through timekeeping, provide helper functions to make such updates safe. vdso_update_begin() takes the timekeeper_lock to protect against a potential update from timekeeper code and increments the VDSO sequence count to signal data inconsistency to concurrent readers. vdso_update_end() makes the sequence count even again to signal data consistency and drops the timekeeper lock.

Last cycle setns() was changed to support attaching to multiple namespaces atomically. This requires all namespaces to have a point of no return where they can't fail anymore. Specifically, <namespace-type>_install() is allowed to perform permission checks and install the namespace into the new struct nsset that it has been given but it is not allowed to make visible changes to the affected task. Once <namespace-type>_install() returns, anything that the given namespace type additionally requires to be setup needs to ideally be done in a function that can't fail or if it fails the failure must be non-fatal. For time namespaces the relevant functions that fell into this category were timens_set_vvar_page() and vdso_join_timens(). The latter could still fail although it didn't need to. This function is only implemented for vdso_join_timens() in current mainline. As discussed on-list (cf. [1]), in order to make setns() support time namespaces when attaching to multiple namespaces at once properly we changed vdso_join_timens() to always succeed. So vdso_join_timens() replaces the mmap_write_lock_killable() with mmap_read_lock(). Please note that arm is about to grow vdso support for time namespaces (possibly this merge window). We've synced on this change and arm64 also uses mmap_read_lock(), i.e. makes vdso_join_timens() a function that can't fail. Once the changes here and the arm64 changes have landed, vdso_join_timens() should be turned into a void function so it's obvious to callers and implementers on other architectures that the expectation is that it can't fail. We didn't do this right away because it would've introduced unnecessary merge conflicts between the two trees for no major gain.

The main changes in this cycle were:
- Improve uclamp performance by using a static key for the fast path
- Add the "sched_util_clamp_min_rt_default" sysctl, to optimize for
better power efficiency of RT tasks on battery powered devices.
(The default is to maximize performance & reduce RT latencies.)
- Improve utime and stime tracking accuracy, which had a fixed boundary
of error, which created larger and larger relative errors as the values
become larger. This is now replaced with more precise arithmetics,
using the new mul_u64_u64_div_u64() helper in math64.h.
- Improve the deadline scheduler, such as making it capacity aware
- Improve frequency-invariant scheduling
- Misc cleanups in energy/power aware scheduling
- Add sched_update_nr_running tracepoint to track changes to nr_running
- Documentation additions and updates
- Misc cleanups and smaller fixes

of error, which created larger and larger relative errors as the
values become larger. This is now replaced with more precise
arithmetics, using the new mul_u64_u64_div_u64() helper in math64.h.
- Improve the deadline scheduler, such as making it capacity aware
- Improve frequency-invariant scheduling
- Misc cleanups in energy/power aware scheduling
- Add sched_update_nr_running tracepoint to track changes to nr_running
- Documentation additions and updates
- Misc cleanups and smaller fixes
