sched: Further restrict the preemption modes
The introduction of PREEMPT_LAZY was for multiple reasons:
- PREEMPT_RT suffered from over-scheduling, hurting performance compared to
!PREEMPT_RT.
- the introduction of (more) features that rely on preemption; like
folio_zero_user() which can do large memset() without preemption checks.
(Xen already had a horrible hack to deal with long running hypercalls)
- the endless and uncontrolled sprinkling of cond_resched() -- mostly cargo
cult or in response to poor to replicate workloads.
By moving to a model that is fundamentally preemptable these things become
managable and avoid needing to introduce more horrible hacks.
Since this is a requirement; limit PREEMPT_NONE to architectures that do not
support preemption at all. Further limit PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY to those
architectures that do not yet have PREEMPT_LAZY support (with the eventual goal
to make this the empty set and completely remove voluntary preemption and
cond_resched() -- notably VOLUNTARY is already limited to !ARCH_NO_PREEMPT.)
This leaves up-to-date architectures (arm64, loongarch, powerpc, riscv, s390,
x86) with only two preemption models: full and lazy.
While Lazy has been the recommended setting for a while, not all distributions
have managed to make the switch yet. Force things along. Keep the patch minimal
in case of hard to address regressions that might pop up.

sched: Reorder some fields in struct rq
This colocates some hot fields in "struct rq" to be on the same cache line
as others that are often accessed at the same time or in similar ways.
Using data from a Google-internal fleet-scale profiler, I found three
distinct groups of hot fields in struct rq:
- (1) The runqueue lock: __lock.
- (2) Those accessed from hot code in pick_next_task_fair():
nr_running, nr_numa_running, nr_preferred_running,
ttwu_pending, cpu_capacity, curr, idle.
- (3) Those accessed from some other hot codepaths, e.g.
update_curr(), update_rq_clock(), and scheduler_tick():
clock_task, clock_pelt, clock, lost_idle_time,
clock_update_flags, clock_pelt_idle, clock_idle.
The cycles spent on accessing these different groups of fields broke down
roughly as follows:
- 50% on group (1) (the runqueue lock, always read-write)
- 39% on group (2) (load:store ratio around 38:1)
- 8% on group (3) (load:store ratio around 5:1)
- 3% on all the other fields
Most of the fields in group (3) are already in a cache line grouping; this
patch just adds "clock" and "clock_update_flags" to that group. The fields
in group (2) are scattered across several cache lines; the main effect of
this patch is to group them together, on a single line at the beginning of
the structure. A few other less performance-critical fields (nr_switches,
numa_migrate_on, has_blocked_load, nohz_csd, last_blocked_load_update_tick)
were also reordered to reduce holes in the data structure.
Since the runqueue lock is acquired from so many different contexts, and is
basically always accessed using an atomic operation, putting it on either
of the cache lines for groups (2) or (3) would slow down accesses to those
fields dramatically, since those groups are read-mostly accesses.
To test this, I wrote a focused load test that would put load on the
pick_next_task_fair() path. A parent process would fork many child
processes, and each child would nanosleep() for 1 msec many times in a
loop. The load test was monitored with "perf", and I looked at the amount
of cycles that were spent with sched_balance_rq() on the stack. The test
was reliably spending ~5% of all of its cycles there. I ran it 100 times
on a pair of 2-socket Intel Haswell machines (72 vCPUs per machine) - one
running the tip of sched/core, the other running this change - using 360
child processes and 8192 1-msec sleeps per child. The mean cycle count
dropped from 5.14B to 4.91B, or a *4.6% decrease* in relevant scheduler
cycles.
Given that this change reduces cache misses in a very hot kernel codepath,
there's likely to be additional application performance improvement due to
reduced cache conflicts from kernel data structures.
On a Power11 system with 128-byte cache lines, my test showed a ~5%
decrease in relevant scheduler cycles, along with a slight increase in user
time - both positive indicators. This data comes from
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/affdc6b1-9980-44d1-89db-d90730c1e384@linux.ibm.com/
This is the case even though the additional "____cacheline_aligned" that
puts the runqueue lock on the next cache line adds an additional 64 bytes
of padding on those machines. This patch does not change the size of
"struct rq" on machines with 64-byte cache lines.
I also ran "hackbench" to try to test this change, but it didn't show
conclusive results. Looking at a CPU cycle profile of the hackbench run,
it was spending 95% of its cycles inside __alloc_skb(), __kfree_skb(), or
kmem_cache_free() - almost all of which was spent updating memcg counters
or contending on the list_lock in kmem_cache_node. And it spent less than
0.5% of its cycles inside either schedule() or try_to_wake_up(). So it's
not surprising that it didn't show useful results here.
The "__no_randomize_layout" was added to reflect the fact that performance
of code that references this data structure is unusually sensitive to
placement of its members.

sched/fair: Sort out 'blocked_load*' namespace noise
There's three layers of logic in the scheduler that
deal with 'has_blocked' (load) handling of the NOHZ code:
(1) nohz.has_blocked,
(2) rq->has_blocked_load, deal with NOHZ idle balancing,
(3) and cfs_rq_has_blocked(), which is part of the layer
that is passing the SMP load-balancing signal to the
NOHZ layers.
The 'has_blocked' and 'has_blocked_load' names are used
in a mixed fashion, sometimes within the same function.
Standardize on 'has_blocked_load' to make it all easy
to read and easy to grep.
No change in functionality.

sched/fair: Introduce and use the vruntime_cmp() and vruntime_op() wrappers for wrapped-signed aritmetics
We have to be careful with vruntime comparisons and subtraction,
due to the possibility of wrapping, so we have macros like:
#define vruntime_gt(field, lse, rse) ({ (s64)((lse)->field - (rse)->field) > 0; })
Which is used like this:
if (vruntime_gt(min_vruntime, se, rse))
se->min_vruntime = rse->min_vruntime;
Replace this with an easier to read pattern that uses the regular
arithmetics operators:
if (vruntime_cmp(se->min_vruntime, ">", rse->min_vruntime))
se->min_vruntime = rse->min_vruntime;
Also replace vruntime subtractions with vruntime_op():
- delta = (s64)(sea->vruntime - seb->vruntime) +
- (s64)(cfs_rqb->zero_vruntime_fi - cfs_rqa->zero_vruntime_fi);
+ delta = vruntime_op(sea->vruntime, "-", seb->vruntime) +
+ vruntime_op(cfs_rqb->zero_vruntime_fi, "-", cfs_rqa->zero_vruntime_fi);
In the vruntime_cmp() and vruntime_op() macros use Use __builtin_strcmp(),
because of __HAVE_ARCH_STRCMP might turn off the compiler optimizations
we rely on here to catch usage bugs.
No change in functionality.

sched/fair: Rename cfs_rq::avg_vruntime to ::sum_w_vruntime, and helper functions
The ::avg_vruntime field is a misnomer: it says it's an
'average vruntime', but in reality it's the momentary sum
of the weighted vruntimes of all queued tasks, which is
at least a division away from being an average.
This is clear from comments about the math of fair scheduling:
* \Sum (v_i - v0) * w_i := cfs_rq->avg_vruntime
This confusion is increased by the cfs_avg_vruntime() function,
which does perform the division and returns a true average.
The sum of all weighted vruntimes should be named thusly,
so rename the field to ::sum_w_vruntime. (As arguably
::sum_weighted_vruntime would be a bit of a mouthful.)
Understanding the scheduler is hard enough already, without
extra layers of obfuscated naming. ;-)
Also rename related helper functions:
sum_vruntime_add() => sum_w_vruntime_add()
sum_vruntime_sub() => sum_w_vruntime_sub()
sum_vruntime_update() => sum_w_vruntime_update()
With the notable exception of cfs_avg_vruntime(), which
was named accurately.

sched/fair: Rename cfs_rq::avg_load to cfs_rq::sum_weight
The ::avg_load field is a long-standing misnomer: it says it's an
'average load', but in reality it's the momentary sum of the load
of all currently runnable tasks. We'd have to also perform a
division by nr_running (or use time-decay) to arrive at any sort
of average value.
This is clear from comments about the math of fair scheduling:
* \Sum w_i := cfs_rq->avg_load
The sum of all weights is ... the sum of all weights, not
the average of all weights.
To make it doubly confusing, there's also an ::avg_load
in the load-balancing struct sg_lb_stats, which *is* a
true average.
The second part of the field's name is a minor misnomer
as well: it says 'load', and it is indeed a load_weight
structure as it shares code with the load-balancer - but
it's only in an SMP load-balancing context where
load = weight, in the fair scheduling context the primary
purpose is the weighting of different nice levels.
So rename the field to ::sum_weight instead, which makes
the terminology of the EEVDF math match up with our
implementation of it:
* \Sum w_i := cfs_rq->sum_weight

liveupdate: luo_core: fix redundant bound check in luo_ioctl()
The kernel test robot reported a Smatch warning: kernel/liveupdate/luo_core.c:402 luo_ioctl() warn: unsigned 'nr' is never less than zero. This occurs because 'nr' is unsigned and LIVEUPDATE_CMD_BASE is currently defined as 0, making the check (nr < LIVEUPDATE_CMD_BASE) always false. Remove the explicit lower bound check. The logic remains correct because 'nr' is unsigned; if nr is less than LIVEUPDATE_CMD_BASE, the expression (nr - LIVEUPDATE_CMD_BASE) will wrap around to a large positive value. This will inevitably be larger than ARRAY_SIZE(luo_ioctl_ops) and be caught by the upper bound check.

cpu: Make atomic hotplug callbacks run with interrupts disabled on UP
On SMP systems the CPU hotplug callbacks in the "starting" range are
invoked while the CPU is brought up and interrupts are still
disabled. Callbacks which are added later are invoked via the
hotplug-thread on the target CPU and interrupts are explicitly disabled.
In the UP case callbacks which are added later are invoked directly without
the thread indirection. This is in principle okay since there is just one
CPU but those callbacks are invoked with interrupt disabled code. That's
incorrect as those callbacks assume interrupt disabled context.
Disable interrupts before invoking the callbacks on UP if the state is
atomic and interrupts are expected to be disabled. The "save" part is
required because this is also invoked early in the boot process while
interrupts are disabled and must not be enabled prematurely.

setup_percpu_irq() was forgotten when the percpu_devid infrastructure was

the caller.

perf/core: Fix missing read event generation on task exit
For events with inherit_stat enabled, a "read" event will be generated
to collect per task event counts on task exit.
The call chain is as follows:
do_exit
-> perf_event_exit_task
-> perf_event_exit_task_context
-> perf_event_exit_event
-> perf_remove_from_context
-> perf_child_detach
-> sync_child_event
-> perf_event_read_event
However, the child event context detaches the task too early in
perf_event_exit_task_context, which causes sync_child_event to never
generate the read event in this case, since child_event->ctx->task is
always set to TASK_TOMBSTONE. Fix that by moving context lock section
backward to ensure ctx->task is not set to TASK_TOMBSTONE before
generating the read event.
Because perf_event_free_task calls perf_event_exit_task_context with
exit = false to tear down all child events from the context, and the
task never lived, accessing the task PID can lead to a use-after-free.
To fix that, let sync_child_event read task from argument and move the
call to the only place it should be triggered to avoid the effect of
setting ctx->task to TASK_TOMESTONE, and add a task parameter to
perf_event_exit_event to trigger the sync_child_event properly when
needed.
This bug can be reproduced by running "perf record -s" and attaching to
any program that generates perf events in its child tasks. If we check
the result with "perf report -T", the last line of the report will leave
an empty table like "# PID TID", which is expected to contain the
per-task event counts by design.

genirq: Change hwirq parameter to irq_hw_number_t
The irqdomain implementation internally represents hardware IRQs as irq_hw_number_t, which is defined as unsigned long int. When providing an irq_hw_number_t to the generic_handle_domain() functions that expect and unsigned int hwirq, this can lead to a loss of information. Change the hwirq parameter to irq_hw_number_t to support the full range of hwirqs.

This capability is critical for cloud environments, allowing hypervisors
to be updated with minimal downtime for running virtual machines. LUO
achieves this by preserving the state of selected resources, such as
memory, devices and their dependencies, across the kernel transition.
As a key feature, this series includes support for preserving memfd file
descriptors, which allows critical in-memory data, such as guest RAM or
any other large memory region, to be maintained in RAM across the kexec
reboot.
Mike Rappaport merits a mention here, for his extensive review and

tracing fixes for v6.19:
- Fix accounting of stop_count in file release On opening the trace file, if "pause-on-trace" option is set, it will increment the stop_count. On file release, it checks if stop_count is set, and if so it decrements it. Since this code was originally written, the stop_count can be incremented by other use cases.

sched/core: Fix psi_dequeue() for Proxy Execution
Currently, if the sleep flag is set, psi_dequeue() doesn't
change any of the psi_flags.
This is because psi_task_switch() will clear TSK_ONCPU as well
as other potential flags (TSK_RUNNING), and the assumption is
that a voluntary sleep always consists of a task being dequeued
followed shortly there after with a psi_sched_switch() call.
Proxy Execution changes this expectation, as mutex-blocked tasks
that would normally sleep stay on the runqueue. But in the case
where the mutex-owning task goes to sleep, or the owner is on a
remote cpu, we will then deactivate the blocked task shortly
after.
In that situation, the mutex-blocked task will have had its
TSK_ONCPU cleared when it was switched off the cpu, but it will
stay TSK_RUNNING. Then if we later dequeue it (as currently done
if we hit a case find_proxy_task() can't yet handle, such as the
case of the owner being on another rq or a sleeping owner)
psi_dequeue() won't change any state (leaving it TSK_RUNNING),
as it incorrectly expects a psi_task_switch() call to
immediately follow.
Later on when the task get woken/re-enqueued, and psi_flags are
set for TSK_RUNNING, we hit an error as the task is already
TSK_RUNNING:
psi: inconsistent task state! task=188:kworker/28:0 cpu=28 psi_flags=4 clear=0 set=4
To resolve this, extend the logic in psi_dequeue() so that
if the sleep flag is set, we also check if psi_flags have
TSK_ONCPU set (meaning the psi_task_switch is imminent) before
we do the shortcut return.
If TSK_ONCPU is not set, that means we've already switched away,
and this psi_dequeue call needs to clear the flags.

sched/fair: Fix unfairness caused by stalled tg_load_avg_contrib when the last task migrates out
When a task is migrated out, there is a probability that the tg->load_avg
value will become abnormal. The reason is as follows:
1. Due to the 1ms update period limitation in update_tg_load_avg(), there
is a possibility that the reduced load_avg is not updated to tg->load_avg
when a task migrates out.
2. Even though __update_blocked_fair() traverses the leaf_cfs_rq_list and
calls update_tg_load_avg() for cfs_rqs that are not fully decayed, the key
function cfs_rq_is_decayed() does not check whether
cfs->tg_load_avg_contrib is null. Consequently, in some cases,
__update_blocked_fair() removes cfs_rqs whose avg.load_avg has not been
updated to tg->load_avg.
Add a check of cfs_rq->tg_load_avg_contrib in cfs_rq_is_decayed(),
which fixes the case (2.) mentioned above.

sched/rt: Remove a preempt-disable section in rt_mutex_setprio()
rt_mutex_setprio() has only one caller: rt_mutex_adjust_prio(). It
expects that task_struct::pi_lock and rt_mutex_base::wait_lock are held.
Both locks are raw_spinlock_t and are acquired with disabled interrupts.
Nevertheless rt_mutex_setprio() disables preemption while invoking
__balance_callbacks() and raw_spin_rq_unlock(). Even if one of the
balance callbacks unlocks the rq then it must not enable interrupts
because rt_mutex_base::wait_lock is still locked.
Therefore interrupts should remain disabled and disabling preemption is
not needed.

changes.
- Reset controller updates with added drivers for LAN969x, eic770
and RZ/G3S SoCs.
- Protection of system controller registers on Renesas and Google SoCs,
to prevent trivially triggering a system crash from e.g. debugfs
access.
- soc_device identification updates on Nvidia, Exynos and Mediatek
- debugfs support in the ST STM32 firewall driver
- Minor updates for SoC drivers on AMD/Xilinx, Renesas, Allwinner, TI

Some filesystems use a kinda-sorta controlled dentry refcount leak to pin
dentries of created objects in dcache (and undo it when removing those).
Reference is grabbed and not released, but it's not actually _stored_
anywhere. That works, but it's hard to follow and verify; among other
things, we have no way to tell _which_ of the increments is intended
to be an unpaired one. Worse, on removal we need to decide whether
the reference had already been dropped, which can be non-trivial if
that removal is on umount and we need to figure out if this dentry is
pinned due to e.g. unlink() not done. Usually that is handled by using
kill_litter_super() as ->kill_sb(), but there are open-coded special
cases of the same (consider e.g. /proc/self).
Things get simpler if we introduce a new dentry flag (DCACHE_PERSISTENT)
marking those "leaked" dentries. Having it set claims responsibility
for +1 in refcount.
The end result this series is aiming for:
* get these unbalanced dget() and dput() replaced with new primitives that
would, in addition to adjusting refcount, set and clear persistency flag.
* instead of having kill_litter_super() mess with removing the remaining
"leaked" references (e.g. for all tmpfs files that hadn't been removed
prior to umount), have the regular shrink_dcache_for_umount() strip
DCACHE_PERSISTENT of all dentries, dropping the corresponding
reference if it had been set. After that kill_litter_super() becomes
an equivalent of kill_anon_super().
Doing that in a single step is not feasible - it would affect too many places
in too many filesystems. It has to be split into a series.
This work has really started early in 2024; quite a few preliminary pieces
have already gone into mainline. This chunk is finally getting to the
meat of that stuff - infrastructure and most of the conversions to it.
Some pieces are still sitting in the local branches, but the bulk of
that stuff is here.
