Expose a new system call allowing each thread to register one userspace
memory area to be used as an ABI between kernel and user-space for two
purposes: user-space restartable sequences and quick access to read the
current CPU number value from user-space.
* Restartable sequences (per-cpu atomics)
Restartables sequences allow user-space to perform update operations on
per-cpu data without requiring heavy-weight atomic operations.
The restartable critical sections (percpu atomics) work has been started
by Paul Turner and Andrew Hunter. It lets the kernel handle restart of
critical sections. [1] [2] The re-implementation proposed here brings a
few simplifications to the ABI which facilitates porting to other
architectures and speeds up the user-space fast path.
Here are benchmarks of various rseq use-cases.
Test hardware:
arm32: ARMv7 Processor rev 4 (v7l) "Cubietruck", 2-core
x86-64: Intel E5-2630 v3@2.40GHz, 16-core, hyperthreading
The following benchmarks were all performed on a single thread.
* Per-CPU statistic counter increment
getcpu+atomic (ns/op) rseq (ns/op) speedup
arm32: 344.0 31.4 11.0
x86-64: 15.3 2.0 7.7
* LTTng-UST: write event 32-bit header, 32-bit payload into tracer
per-cpu buffer
getcpu+atomic (ns/op) rseq (ns/op) speedup
arm32: 2502.0 2250.0 1.1
x86-64: 117.4 98.0 1.2
* liburcu percpu: lock-unlock pair, dereference, read/compare word
getcpu+atomic (ns/op) rseq (ns/op) speedup
arm32: 751.0 128.5 5.8
x86-64: 53.4 28.6 1.9
* jemalloc memory allocator adapted to use rseq
Using rseq with per-cpu memory pools in jemalloc at Facebook (based on
rseq 2016 implementation):
The production workload response-time has 1-2% gain avg. latency, and
the P99 overall latency drops by 2-3%.
* Reading the current CPU number
Speeding up reading the current CPU number on which the caller thread is
running is done by keeping the current CPU number up do date within the
cpu_id field of the memory area registered by the thread. This is done
by making scheduler preemption set the TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME flag on the
current thread. Upon return to user-space, a notify-resume handler
updates the current CPU value within the registered user-space memory
area. User-space can then read the current CPU number directly from
memory.
Keeping the current cpu id in a memory area shared between kernel and
user-space is an improvement over current mechanisms available to read
the current CPU number, which has the following benefits over
alternative approaches:
- 35x speedup on ARM vs system call through glibc
- 20x speedup on x86 compared to calling glibc, which calls vdso
executing a "lsl" instruction,
- 14x speedup on x86 compared to inlined "lsl" instruction,
- Unlike vdso approaches, this cpu_id value can be read from an inline
assembly, which makes it a useful building block for restartable
sequences.
- The approach of reading the cpu id through memory mapping shared
between kernel and user-space is portable (e.g. ARM), which is not the
case for the lsl-based x86 vdso.
On x86, yet another possible approach would be to use the gs segment
selector to point to user-space per-cpu data. This approach performs
similarly to the cpu id cache, but it has two disadvantages: it is
not portable, and it is incompatible with existing applications already
using the gs segment selector for other purposes.
Benchmarking various approaches for reading the current CPU number:
ARMv7 Processor rev 4 (v7l)
Machine model: Cubietruck
- Baseline (empty loop): 8.4 ns
- Read CPU from rseq cpu_id: 16.7 ns
- Read CPU from rseq cpu_id (lazy register): 19.8 ns
- glibc 2.19-0ubuntu6.6 getcpu: 301.8 ns
- getcpu system call: 234.9 ns
x86-64 Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2630 v3 @ 2.40GHz:
- Baseline (empty loop): 0.8 ns
- Read CPU from rseq cpu_id: 0.8 ns
- Read CPU from rseq cpu_id (lazy register): 0.8 ns
- Read using gs segment selector: 0.8 ns
- "lsl" inline assembly: 13.0 ns
- glibc 2.19-0ubuntu6 getcpu: 16.6 ns
- getcpu system call: 53.9 ns
- Speed (benchmark taken on v8 of patchset)
Running 10 runs of hackbench -l 100000 seems to indicate, contrary to
expectations, that enabling CONFIG_RSEQ slightly accelerates the
scheduler:
Configuration: 2 sockets * 8-core Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2630 v3 @
2.40GHz (directly on hardware, hyperthreading disabled in BIOS, energy
saving disabled in BIOS, turboboost disabled in BIOS, cpuidle.off=1
kernel parameter), with a Linux v4.6 defconfig+localyesconfig,
restartable sequences series applied.
* CONFIG_RSEQ=n
avg.: 41.37 s
std.dev.: 0.36 s
* CONFIG_RSEQ=y
avg.: 40.46 s
std.dev.: 0.33 s
- Size
On x86-64, between CONFIG_RSEQ=n/y, the text size increase of vmlinux is
567 bytes, and the data size increase of vmlinux is 5696 bytes.

"This set of changes close the known issues with setting si_code to an

remains work to do on nds32, arc, unicore32, powerpc, arm, arm64, ia64

Also not included is the work to shrink the in kernel version of
struct siginfo. That depends on getting the number of places that
directly manipulate struct siginfo under control, as it requires the
introduction of struct kernel_siginfo for the in kernel things.

Add unprivileged version of ino_lookup ioctl BTRFS_IOC_INO_LOOKUP_USER
to allow normal users to call "btrfs subvolume list/show" etc. in
combination with BTRFS_IOC_GET_SUBVOL_INFO/BTRFS_IOC_GET_SUBVOL_ROOTREF.
This can be used like BTRFS_IOC_INO_LOOKUP but the argument is
different. This is because it always searches the fs/file tree
correspoinding to the fd with which this ioctl is called and also
returns the name of bottom subvolume.
The main differences from original ino_lookup ioctl are:
1. Read + Exec permission will be checked using inode_permission()
during path construction. -EACCES will be returned in case
of failure.
2. Path construction will be stopped at the inode number which
corresponds to the fd with which this ioctl is called. If
constructed path does not exist under fd's inode, -EACCES
will be returned.
3. The name of bottom subvolume is also searched and filled.
Note that the maximum length of path is shorter 256 (BTRFS_VOL_NAME_MAX+1)
bytes than ino_lookup ioctl because of space of subvolume's name.

Add unprivileged ioctl BTRFS_IOC_GET_SUBVOL_ROOTREF which returns
ROOT_REF information of the subvolume containing this inode except the
subvolume name (this is because to prevent potential name leak). The
subvolume name will be gained by user version of ino_lookup ioctl
(BTRFS_IOC_INO_LOOKUP_USER) which also performs permission check.
The min id of root ref's subvolume to be searched is specified by
@min_id in struct btrfs_ioctl_get_subvol_rootref_args. After the search
ends, @min_id is set to the last searched root ref's subvolid + 1. Also,
if there are more root refs than BTRFS_MAX_ROOTREF_BUFFER_NUM,
-EOVERFLOW is returned. Therefore the caller can just call this ioctl
again without changing the argument to continue search.

Simple one-shot poll through the io_submit() interface. To poll for

the first 32 bits of the aio_buf field of the iocb.
Unlike poll or epoll without EPOLLONESHOT this interface always works
in one shot mode, that is once the iocb is completed, it will have to be

The PPPIOCDETACH ioctl effectively tries to "close" the given ppp file
before f_count has reached 0, which is fundamentally a bad idea. It
does check 'f_count < 2', which excludes concurrent operations on the
file since they would only be possible with a shared fd table, in which
case each fdget() would take a file reference. However, it fails to
account for the fact that even with 'f_count == 1' the file can still be
linked into epoll instances. As reported by syzbot, this can trivially
be used to cause a use-after-free.
Yet, the only known user of PPPIOCDETACH is pppd versions older than
ppp-2.4.2, which was released almost 15 years ago (November 2003).
Also, PPPIOCDETACH apparently stopped working reliably at around the
same time, when the f_count check was added to the kernel, e.g. see
https://lkml.org/lkml/2002/12/31/83. Also, the current 'f_count < 2'
check makes PPPIOCDETACH only work in single-threaded applications; it
always fails if called from a multithreaded application.
All pppd versions released in the last 15 years just close() the file
descriptor instead.
Therefore, instead of hacking around this bug by exporting epoll
internals to modules, and probably missing other related bugs, just
remove the PPPIOCDETACH ioctl and see if anyone actually notices. Leave
a stub in place that prints a one-time warning and returns EINVAL.

wiphy names were recently limited to 128 bytes by commit a7cfebcb75
("cfg80211: limit wiphy names to 128 bytes"). As it turns out though,
this isn't sufficient because dev_vprintk_emit() needs the syslog header
string "SUBSYSTEM=ieee80211\0DEVICE=+ieee80211:$devname" to fit into 128
bytes. This triggered the "device/subsystem name too long" WARN when
the device name was >= 90 bytes. As before, this was reproduced by
syzbot by sending an HWSIM_CMD_NEW_RADIO command to the MAC80211_HWSIM
generic netlink family.
Fix it by further limiting wiphy names to 64 bytes.

Pull rdma fixes from Doug Ledford:
"This is our first pull request of the rc cycle. It's not that it's
been overly quiet, we were just waiting on a few things before sending
this off.
For instance, the 6 patch series from Intel for the hfi1 driver had
actually been pulled in on Tuesday for a Wednesday pull request, only
to have Jason notice something I missed, so we held off for some
testing, and then on Thursday had to respin the series because the
very first patch needed a minor fix (unnecessary cast is all).
There is a sizable hns patch series in here, as well as a reasonably
largish hfi1 patch series, then all of the lines of uapi updates are
just the change to the new official Linux-OpenIB SPDX tag (a bunch of
our files had what amounts to a BSD-2-Clause + MIT Warranty statement
as their license as a result of the initial code submission years ago,
and the SPDX folks decided it was unique enough to warrant a unique
tag), then the typical mlx4 and mlx5 updates, and finally some cxgb4
and core/cache/cma updates to round out the bunch.
None of it was overly large by itself, but in the 2 1/2 weeks we've
been collecting patches, it has added up :-/.
As best I can tell, it's been through 0day (I got a notice about my
last for-next push, but not for my for-rc push, but Jason seems to
think that failure messages are prioritized and success messages not
so much). It's also been through linux-next. And yes, we did notice in
the context portion of the CMA query gid fix patch that there is a
dubious BUG_ON() in the code, and have plans to audit our BUG_ON usage
and remove it anywhere we can.

- Various build fixes (USER_ACCESS=m and ADDR_TRANS turned off)
- SPDX license tag cleanups (new tag Linux-OpenIB)

For certain use cases it is desired to enforce mitigations so they cannot
be undone afterwards. That's important for loader stubs which want to
prevent a child from disabling the mitigation again. Will also be used for

Add two new prctls to control aspects of speculation related vulnerabilites
and their mitigations to provide finer grained control over performance
impacting mitigations.
PR_GET_SPECULATION_CTRL returns the state of the speculation misfeature
which is selected with arg2 of prctl(2). The return value uses bit 0-2 with
the following meaning:
Bit Define Description
0 PR_SPEC_PRCTL Mitigation can be controlled per task by
PR_SET_SPECULATION_CTRL
1 PR_SPEC_ENABLE The speculation feature is enabled, mitigation is
disabled
2 PR_SPEC_DISABLE The speculation feature is disabled, mitigation is
enabled
If all bits are 0 the CPU is not affected by the speculation misfeature.
If PR_SPEC_PRCTL is set, then the per task control of the mitigation is
available. If not set, prctl(PR_SET_SPECULATION_CTRL) for the speculation
misfeature will fail.
PR_SET_SPECULATION_CTRL allows to control the speculation misfeature, which
is selected by arg2 of prctl(2) per task. arg3 is used to hand in the
control value, i.e. either PR_SPEC_ENABLE or PR_SPEC_DISABLE.
The common return values are:
EINVAL prctl is not implemented by the architecture or the unused prctl()
arguments are not 0
ENODEV arg2 is selecting a not supported speculation misfeature
PR_SET_SPECULATION_CTRL has these additional return values:
ERANGE arg3 is incorrect, i.e. it's not either PR_SPEC_ENABLE or PR_SPEC_DISABLE
ENXIO prctl control of the selected speculation misfeature is disabled
The first supported controlable speculation misfeature is
PR_SPEC_STORE_BYPASS. Add the define so this can be shared between
architectures.
Based on an initial patch from Tim Chen and mostly rewritten.

This is the io_getevents equivalent of ppoll/pselect and allows to
properly mix signals and aio completions (especially with IOCB_CMD_POLL)
and atomically executes the following sequence:
sigset_t origmask;
pthread_sigmask(SIG_SETMASK, &sigmask, &origmask);
ret = io_getevents(ctx, min_nr, nr, events, timeout);
pthread_sigmask(SIG_SETMASK, &origmask, NULL);
Note that unlike many other signal related calls we do not pass a sigmask
size, as that would get us to 7 arguments, which aren't easily supported
by the syscall infrastructure. It seems a lot less painful to just add a
new syscall variant in the unlikely case we're going to increase the
sigset size.

The problem is that the tcp_conntracks state table is not smart enough

As stated in the pull request for the unification of CLOCK_MONOTONIC and
CLOCK_BOOTTIME, it was clear that we might have to revert the change.
As reported by several folks systemd and other applications rely on the
documented behaviour of CLOCK_MONOTONIC on Linux and break with the above
changes. After resume daemons time out and other timeout related issues are
observed. Rafael compiled this list:
* systemd kills daemons on resume, after >WatchdogSec seconds
of suspending (Genki Sky). [Verified that that's because systemd uses
CLOCK_MONOTONIC and expects it to not include the suspend time.]
* systemd-journald misbehaves after resume:
systemd-journald[7266]: File /var/log/journal/016627c3c4784cd4812d4b7e96a34226/system.journal
corrupted or uncleanly shut down, renaming and replacing.
(Mike Galbraith).
* NetworkManager reports "networking disabled" and networking is broken
after resume 50% of the time (Pavel). [May be because of systemd.]
* MATE desktop dims the display and starts the screensaver right after
system resume (Pavel).
* Full system hang during resume (me). [May be due to systemd or NM or both.]
That happens on debian and open suse systems.
It's sad, that these problems were neither catched in -next nor by those
folks who expressed interest in this change.

Both powerpc and alpha have cases where they wronly set si_code to 0
in combination with SIGTRAP and don't mean SI_USER.
About half the time this is because the architecture can not report
accurately what kind of trap exception triggered the trap exception.
The other half the time it looks like no one has bothered to
figure out an appropriate si_code.
For the cases where the architecture does not have enough information
or is too lazy to figure out exactly what kind of trap exception
it is define TRAP_UNK.

Most architectures now use the asm-generic copy of the sysvipc data
structures (msqid64_ds, semid64_ds, shmid64_ds), which use 32-bit
__kernel_time_t on 32-bit architectures but have padding behind them to
allow extending the type to 64-bit.
Unfortunately, that fails on all big-endian architectures, which have the
padding on the wrong side. As so many of them get it wrong, we decided to
not bother even trying to fix it up when we introduced the asm-generic
copy. Instead we always use the padding word now to provide the upper
32 bits of the seconds value, regardless of the endianess.
A libc implementation on a typical big-endian system can deal with
this by providing its own copy of the structure definition to user
space, and swapping the two 32-bit words before returning from the
semctl/shmctl/msgctl system calls.
Note that msqid64_ds and shmid64_ds were broken on x32 since commit
f4b4aae182 ("x86/headers/uapi: Fix __BITS_PER_LONG value for x32
builds"). I have sent a separate fix for that, but as we no longer
have to worry about x32 here, I no longer worry about x32 here and
use 'unsigned long' instead of __kernel_ulong_t.

There's currently no limit on wiphy names, other than netlink
message size and memory limitations, but that causes issues when,
for example, the wiphy name is used in a uevent, e.g. in rfkill
where we use the same name for the rfkill instance, and then the
buffer there is "only" 2k for the environment variables.
This was reported by syzkaller, which used a 4k name.

The new struct __kernel_timespec is similar to current
internal kernel struct timespec64 on 64 bit architecture.
The compat structure however is similar to below on little
endian systems (padding and tv_nsec are switched for big
endian systems):
typedef s32 compat_long_t;
typedef s64 compat_kernel_time64_t;
struct compat_kernel_timespec {
compat_kernel_time64_t tv_sec;
compat_long_t tv_nsec;
compat_long_t padding;
};
This allows for both the native and compat representations to
be the same and syscalls using this type as part of their ABI
can have a single entry point to both.
Note that the compat define is not included anywhere in the
kernel explicitly to avoid confusion.
These types will be used by the new syscalls that will be
introduced in the consequent patches.
Most of the new syscalls are just an update to the existing
native ones with this new type. Hence, put this new type under
an ifdef so that the architectures can define CONFIG_64BIT_TIME
when they are ready to handle this switch.

Patch series "linux/const.h: cleanups of macros such as UL(), _BITUL(),

UL() is arch-agnostic, and useful. So let's move it to

scripts/headers_install.sh rips off _UAPI prefix from guard macro names.
I ran "make headers_install" and confirmed the result is what I expect.
So, we can prefix the include guard of include/uapi/linux/const.h,
and add a new include/linux/const.h.
This patch (of 4):
I am going to add include/linux/const.h for the kernel space.
Add _UAPI to the include guard of include/uapi/linux/const.h to
prepare for that.
Please notice the guard name of the exported one will be kept as-is.
So, this commit has no impact to the userspace even if some userspace
stuff depends on the guard macro names.
scripts/headers_install.sh processes exported headers by SED, and
rips off "_UAPI" from guard macro names.
#ifndef _UAPI_LINUX_CONST_H
#define _UAPI_LINUX_CONST_H
will be turned into
#ifndef _LINUX_CONST_H
#define _LINUX_CONST_H
