Pull scheduler fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"This update provides:
- make the scheduler clock switch to unstable mode smooth so the
timestamps stay at microseconds granularity instead of switching to
tick granularity.
- unbreak perf test tsc by taking the new offset into account which
was added in order to proveide better sched clock continuity
- switching sched clock to unstable mode runs all clock related
computations which affect the sched clock output itself from a work
queue. In case of preemption sched clock uses half updated data and
provides wrong timestamps. Keep the math in the protected context
and delegate only the static key switch to workqueue context.

development and testing of networking bpf programs is quite cumbersome.
Despite availability of user space bpf interpreters the kernel is
the ultimate authority and execution environment.
Current test frameworks for TC include creation of netns, veth,
qdiscs and use of various packet generators just to test functionality
of a bpf program. XDP testing is even more complicated, since
qemu needs to be started with gro/gso disabled and precise queue
configuration, transferring of xdp program from host into guest,
attaching to virtio/eth0 and generating traffic from the host
while capturing the results from the guest.
Moreover analyzing performance bottlenecks in XDP program is
impossible in virtio environment, since cost of running the program
is tiny comparing to the overhead of virtio packet processing,
so performance testing can only be done on physical nic
with another server generating traffic.
Furthermore ongoing changes to user space control plane of production
applications cannot be run on the test servers leaving bpf programs
stubbed out for testing.
Last but not least, the upstream llvm changes are validated by the bpf
backend testsuite which has no ability to test the code generated.
To improve this situation introduce BPF_PROG_TEST_RUN command
to test and performance benchmark bpf programs.

Currently, the verifier doesn't reject unaligned access for map_value_adj
register types. Commit 484611357c19 ("bpf: allow access into map value
arrays") added logic to check_ptr_alignment() extending it from PTR_TO_PACKET
to also PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_ADJ, but for PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_ADJ no enforcement
is in place, because reg->id for PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_ADJ reg types is never
non-zero, meaning, we can cause BPF_H/_W/_DW-based unaligned access for
architectures not supporting efficient unaligned access, and thus worst
case could raise exceptions on some archs that are unable to correct the
unaligned access or perform a different memory access to the actual
requested one and such.

For the PTR_TO_PACKET type, reg->id is initially zero when skb->data
was fetched, it later receives a reg->id from env->id_gen generator
once another register with UNKNOWN_VALUE type was added to it via
check_packet_ptr_add(). The purpose of this reg->id is twofold: i) it
is used in find_good_pkt_pointers() for setting the allowed access
range for regs with PTR_TO_PACKET of same id once verifier matched
on data/data_end tests, and ii) for check_ptr_alignment() to determine
that when not having efficient unaligned access and register with
UNKNOWN_VALUE was added to PTR_TO_PACKET, that we're only allowed
to access the content bytewise due to unknown unalignment. reg->id
was never intended for PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE{,_ADJ} types and thus is
always zero, the only marking is in PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_OR_NULL that
was added after 484611357c19 via 57a09bf0a416 ("bpf: Detect identical
PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_OR_NULL registers"). Above tests will fail for
non-root environment due to prohibited pointer arithmetic.
The fix splits register-type specific checks into their own helper
instead of keeping them combined, so we don't run into a similar
issue in future once we extend check_ptr_alignment() further and
forget to add reg->type checks for some of the checks.

While looking into map_value_adj, I noticed that alu operations
directly on the map_value() resp. map_value_adj() register (any
alu operation on a map_value() register will turn it into a
map_value_adj() typed register) are not sufficiently protected
against some of the operations. Two non-exhaustive examples are
provided that the verifier needs to reject:
i) BPF_AND on r0 (map_value_adj):
0: (bf) r2 = r10
1: (07) r2 += -8
2: (7a) *(u64 *)(r2 +0) = 0
3: (18) r1 = 0xbf842a00
5: (85) call bpf_map_lookup_elem#1
6: (15) if r0 == 0x0 goto pc+2
R0=map_value(ks=8,vs=48,id=0),min_value=0,max_value=0 R10=fp
7: (57) r0 &= 8
8: (7a) *(u64 *)(r0 +0) = 22
R0=map_value_adj(ks=8,vs=48,id=0),min_value=0,max_value=8 R10=fp
9: (95) exit
from 6 to 9: R0=inv,min_value=0,max_value=0 R10=fp
9: (95) exit
processed 10 insns
ii) BPF_ADD in 32 bit mode on r0 (map_value_adj):
0: (bf) r2 = r10
1: (07) r2 += -8
2: (7a) *(u64 *)(r2 +0) = 0
3: (18) r1 = 0xc24eee00
5: (85) call bpf_map_lookup_elem#1
6: (15) if r0 == 0x0 goto pc+2
R0=map_value(ks=8,vs=48,id=0),min_value=0,max_value=0 R10=fp
7: (04) (u32) r0 += (u32) 0
8: (7a) *(u64 *)(r0 +0) = 22
R0=map_value_adj(ks=8,vs=48,id=0),min_value=0,max_value=0 R10=fp
9: (95) exit
from 6 to 9: R0=inv,min_value=0,max_value=0 R10=fp
9: (95) exit
processed 10 insns
Issue is, while min_value / max_value boundaries for the access
are adjusted appropriately, we change the pointer value in a way
that cannot be sufficiently tracked anymore from its origin.
Operations like BPF_{AND,OR,DIV,MUL,etc} on a destination register
that is PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE{,_ADJ} was probably unintended, in fact,
all the test cases coming with 484611357c19 ("bpf: allow access
into map value arrays") perform BPF_ADD only on the destination
register that is PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_ADJ.
Only for UNKNOWN_VALUE register types such operations make sense,
f.e. with unknown memory content fetched initially from a constant
offset from the map value memory into a register. That register is
then later tested against lower / upper bounds, so that the verifier
can then do the tracking of min_value / max_value, and properly
check once that UNKNOWN_VALUE register is added to the destination
register with type PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE{,_ADJ}. This is also what the
original use-case is solving. Note, tracking on what is being
added is done through adjust_reg_min_max_vals() and later access
to the map value enforced with these boundaries and the given offset
from the insn through check_map_access_adj().
Tests will fail for non-root environment due to prohibited pointer
arithmetic, in particular in check_alu_op(), we bail out on the
is_pointer_value() check on the dst_reg (which is false in root
case as we allow for pointer arithmetic via env->allow_ptr_leaks).
Similarly to PTR_TO_PACKET, one way to fix it is to restrict the
allowed operations on PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE{,_ADJ} registers to 64 bit
mode BPF_ADD. The test_verifier suite runs fine after the patch
and it also rejects mentioned test cases.

When it is determined that the clock is actually unstable, and
we switch from stable to unstable, the __clear_sched_clock_stable()
function is eventually called.
In this function we set gtod_offset so the following holds true:
sched_clock() + raw_offset == ktime_get_ns() + gtod_offset
But instead of getting the latest timestamps, we use the last values
from scd, so instead of sched_clock() we use scd->tick_raw, and
instead of ktime_get_ns() we use scd->tick_gtod.
However, later, when we use gtod_offset sched_clock_local() we do not
add it to scd->tick_gtod to calculate the correct clock value when we
determine the boundaries for min/max clocks.
This can result in tick granularity sched_clock() values, so fix it.

llvm can optimize the 'if (ptr > data_end)' checks to be in the order
slightly different than the original C code which will confuse verifier.
Like:
if (ptr + 16 > data_end)
return TC_ACT_SHOT;
// may be followed by
if (ptr + 14 > data_end)
return TC_ACT_SHOT;
while llvm can see that 'ptr' is valid for all 16 bytes,
the verifier could not.
Fix verifier logic to account for such case and add a test.

[87487.361084] [<ffffffff99ef0055>] padata_do_serial+0xa5/0x120
padata_reorder calls list_add_tail with the list to which its adding
locked, which seems correct:
spin_lock(&squeue->serial.lock);
list_add_tail(&padata->list, &squeue->serial.list);
spin_unlock(&squeue->serial.lock);
This therefore leaves only place where such inconsistency could occur:
if padata->list is added at the same time on two different threads.
This pdata pointer comes from the function call to
padata_get_next(pd), which has in it the following block:
next_queue = per_cpu_ptr(pd->pqueue, cpu);
padata = NULL;
reorder = &next_queue->reorder;
if (!list_empty(&reorder->list)) {
padata = list_entry(reorder->list.next,
struct padata_priv, list);
spin_lock(&reorder->lock);
list_del_init(&padata->list);
atomic_dec(&pd->reorder_objects);
spin_unlock(&reorder->lock);
pd->processed++;
goto out;
}
out:
return padata;
I strongly suspect that the problem here is that two threads can race
on reorder list. Even though the deletion is locked, call to
list_entry is not locked, which means it's feasible that two threads
pick up the same padata object and subsequently call list_add_tail on
them at the same time. The fix is thus be hoist that lock outside of
that block.

Pull power management fixes from Rafael Wysocki:
"One of these is an intel_pstate regression fix and it is not a small
change, but it mostly removes code that shouldn't be there. That code
was acquired by mistake and has been a source of constant pain since
then, so the time has come to get rid of it finally. We have not seen
problems with this change in the lab, so fingers crossed.
The rest is more usual: one more intel_pstate commit removing useless
code, a cpufreq core fix to make it restore policy limits on CPU
online (which prevents the limits from being reset over system
suspend/resume), a schedutil cpufreq governor initialization fix to
make it actually work as advertised on all systems and an extra sanity
check in the cpuidle core to prevent crashes from happening if the
arch code messes things up.
Specifics:
- Make intel_pstate use one set of global P-state limits in the
active mode regardless of the scaling_governor settings for
individual CPUs instead of switching back and forth between two of
them in a way that is hard to control (Rafael Wysocki).
- Drop a useless function from intel_pstate to prevent it from
modifying the maximum supported frequency value unexpectedly which
may confuse the cpufreq core (Rafael Wysocki).
- Fix the cpufreq core to restore policy limits on CPU online so that
the limits are not reset over system suspend/resume, among other
things (Viresh Kumar).
- Fix the initialization of the schedutil cpufreq governor to make
the IO-wait boosting mechanism in it actually work on systems with
one CPU per cpufreq policy (Rafael Wysocki).
- Add a sanity check to the cpuidle core to prevent crashes from
happening if the architecture code initialization fails to set up
things as expected (Vaidyanathan Srinivasan)"

This patch adds hash of maps support (hashmap->bpf_map).
BPF_MAP_TYPE_HASH_OF_MAPS is added.
A map-in-map contains a pointer to another map and lets call
this pointer 'inner_map_ptr'.
Notes on deleting inner_map_ptr from a hash map:
1. For BPF_F_NO_PREALLOC map-in-map, when deleting
an inner_map_ptr, the htab_elem itself will go through
a rcu grace period and the inner_map_ptr resides
in the htab_elem.
2. For pre-allocated htab_elem (!BPF_F_NO_PREALLOC),
when deleting an inner_map_ptr, the htab_elem may
get reused immediately. This situation is similar
to the existing prealloc-ated use cases.
However, the bpf_map_fd_put_ptr() calls bpf_map_put() which calls
inner_map->ops->map_free(inner_map) which will go
through a rcu grace period (i.e. all bpf_map's map_free
currently goes through a rcu grace period). Hence,
the inner_map_ptr is still safe for the rcu reader side.
This patch also includes BPF_MAP_TYPE_HASH_OF_MAPS to the
check_map_prealloc() in the verifier. preallocation is a
must for BPF_PROG_TYPE_PERF_EVENT. Hence, even we don't expect
heavy updates to map-in-map, enforcing BPF_F_NO_PREALLOC for map-in-map
is impossible without disallowing BPF_PROG_TYPE_PERF_EVENT from using
map-in-map first.

This patch adds a few helper funcs to enable map-in-map
support (i.e. outer_map->inner_map). The first outer_map type
BPF_MAP_TYPE_ARRAY_OF_MAPS is also added in this patch.
The next patch will introduce a hash of maps type.
Any bpf map type can be acted as an inner_map. The exception
is BPF_MAP_TYPE_PROG_ARRAY because the extra level of
indirection makes it harder to verify the owner_prog_type
and owner_jited.
Multi-level map-in-map is not supported (i.e. map->map is ok
but not map->map->map).
When adding an inner_map to an outer_map, it currently checks the
map_type, key_size, value_size, map_flags, max_entries and ops.
The verifier also uses those map's properties to do static analysis.
map_flags is needed because we need to ensure BPF_PROG_TYPE_PERF_EVENT
is using a preallocated hashtab for the inner_hash also. ops and
max_entries are needed to generate inlined map-lookup instructions.
For simplicity reason, a simple '==' test is used for both map_flags
and max_entries. The equality of ops is implied by the equality of
map_type.
During outer_map creation time, an inner_map_fd is needed to create an
outer_map. However, the inner_map_fd's life time does not depend on the
outer_map. The inner_map_fd is merely used to initialize
the inner_map_meta of the outer_map.
Also, for the outer_map:
* It allows element update and delete from syscall
* It allows element lookup from bpf_prog
The above is similar to the current fd_array pattern.

Fix in verifier:
For the same bpf_map_lookup_elem() instruction (i.e. "call 1"),
a broken case is "a different type of map could be used for the
same lookup instruction". For example, an array in one case and a
hashmap in another. We have to resort to the old dynamic call behavior
in this case. The fix is to check for collision on insn_aux->map_ptr.
If there is collision, don't inline the map lookup.
Please see the "do_reg_lookup()" in test_map_in_map_kern.c in the later
patch for how-to trigger the above case.
Simplifications on array_map_gen_lookup():
1. Calculate elem_size from map->value_size. It removes the
need for 'struct bpf_array' which makes the later map-in-map
implementation easier.
2. Remove the 'elem_size == 1' test

In both kmalloc and prealloc mode the bpf_map_update_elem() is using
per-cpu extra_elems to do atomic update when the map is full.
There are two issues with it. The logic can be misused, since it allows
max_entries+num_cpus elements to be present in the map. And alloc_extra_elems()
at map creation time can fail percpu alloc for large map values with a warn:
WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 2752 at ../mm/percpu.c:892 pcpu_alloc+0x119/0xa60
illegal size (32824) or align (8) for percpu allocation
The fixes for both of these issues are different for kmalloc and prealloc modes.
For prealloc mode allocate extra num_possible_cpus elements and store
their pointers into extra_elems array instead of actual elements.
Hence we can use these hidden(spare) elements not only when the map is full
but during bpf_map_update_elem() that replaces existing element too.
That also improves performance, since pcpu_freelist_pop/push is avoided.
Unfortunately this approach cannot be used for kmalloc mode which needs
to kfree elements after rcu grace period. Therefore switch it back to normal
kmalloc even when full and old element exists like it was prior to
commit 6c9059817432 ("bpf: pre-allocate hash map elements").
Add tests to check for over max_entries and large map values.

What started as a rather straightforward race condition reported by
Dmitry using the syzkaller fuzzer ended up revealing some major
problems with how the audit subsystem managed its netlink sockets and
its connection with the userspace audit daemon. Fixing this properly
had quite the cascading effect and what we are left with is this rather
large and complicated patch. My initial goal was to try and decompose
this patch into multiple smaller patches, but the way these changes
are intertwined makes it difficult to split these changes into
meaningful pieces that don't break or somehow make things worse for
the intermediate states.
The patch makes a number of changes, but the most significant are
highlighted below:
* The auditd tracking variables, e.g. audit_sock, are now gone and
replaced by a RCU/spin_lock protected variable auditd_conn which is
a structure containing all of the auditd tracking information.
* We no longer track the auditd sock directly, instead we track it
via the network namespace in which it resides and we use the audit
socket associated with that namespace. In spirit, this is what the
code was trying to do prior to this patch (at least I think that is
what the original authors intended), but it was done rather poorly
and added a layer of obfuscation that only masked the underlying
problems.
* Big backlog queue cleanup, again. In v4.10 we made some pretty big
changes to how the audit backlog queues work, here we haven't changed
the queue design so much as cleaned up the implementation. Brought
about by the locking changes, we've simplified kauditd_thread() quite
a bit by consolidating the queue handling into a new helper function,
kauditd_send_queue(), which allows us to eliminate a lot of very
similar code and makes the looping logic in kauditd_thread() clearer.
* All netlink messages sent to auditd are now sent via
auditd_send_unicast_skb(). Other than just making sense, this makes
the lock handling easier.
* Change the audit_log_start() sleep behavior so that we never sleep
on auditd events (unchanged) or if the caller is holding the
audit_cmd_mutex (changed). Previously we didn't sleep if the caller
was auditd or if the message type fell between a certain range; the
type check was a poor effort of doing what the cmd_mutex check now
does. Richard Guy Briggs originally proposed not sleeping the
cmd_mutex owner several years ago but his patch wasn't acceptable
at the time. At least the idea lives on here.
* A problem with the lost record counter has been resolved. Steve
Grubb and I both happened to notice this problem and according to
some quick testing by Steve, this problem goes back quite some time.
It's largely a harmless problem, although it may have left some
careful sysadmins quite puzzled.

Commit bfc8c90139eb ("mem-hotplug: implement get/put_online_mems")
introduced new functions get/put_online_mems() and mem_hotplug_begin/end()
in order to allow similar semantics for memory hotplug like for cpu
hotplug.
The corresponding functions for cpu hotplug are get/put_online_cpus()
and cpu_hotplug_begin/done() for cpu hotplug.
The commit however missed to introduce functions that would serialize
memory hotplug operations like they are done for cpu hotplug with
cpu_maps_update_begin/done().
This basically leaves mem_hotplug.active_writer unprotected and allows
concurrent writers to modify it, which may lead to problems as outlined
by commit f931ab479dd2 ("mm: fix devm_memremap_pages crash, use
mem_hotplug_{begin, done}").
That commit was extended again with commit b5d24fda9c3d ("mm,
devm_memremap_pages: hold device_hotplug lock over mem_hotplug_{begin,
done}") which serializes memory hotplug operations for some call sites
by using the device_hotplug lock.
In addition with commit 3fc21924100b ("mm: validate device_hotplug is held
for memory hotplug") a sanity check was added to mem_hotplug_begin() to
verify that the device_hotplug lock is held.
This in turn triggers the following warning on s390:
WARNING: CPU: 6 PID: 1 at drivers/base/core.c:643 assert_held_device_hotplug+0x4a/0x58
Call Trace:
assert_held_device_hotplug+0x40/0x58)
mem_hotplug_begin+0x34/0xc8
add_memory_resource+0x7e/0x1f8
add_memory+0xda/0x130

kernel_init_freeable+0x228/0x2d8
kernel_init+0x2a/0x140
kernel_thread_starter+0x6/0xc
One possible fix would be to add more lock_device_hotplug() and
unlock_device_hotplug() calls around each call site of
mem_hotplug_begin/end(). But that would give the device_hotplug lock
additional semantics it better should not have (serialize memory hotplug
operations).
Instead add a new memory_add_remove_lock which has the similar semantics
like cpu_add_remove_lock for cpu hotplug.
To keep things hopefully a bit easier the lock will be locked and unlocked
within the mem_hotplug_begin/end() functions.

While going through the event inheritance code Oleg got confused.
Add some comments to better explain the silent dissapearance of
orphaned events.
So what happens is that at perf_event_release_kernel() time; when an
event looses its connection to userspace (and ceases to exist from the
user's perspective) we can still have an arbitrary amount of inherited
copies of the event. We want to synchronously find and remove all
these child events.
Since that requires a bit of lock juggling, there is the possibility
that concurrent clone()s will create new child events. Therefore we
first mark the parent event as DEAD, which marks all the extant child
events as orphaned.
We then avoid copying orphaned events; in order to avoid getting more
of them.

Dmitry reported syzcaller tripped a use-after-free in perf_release().
After much puzzlement Oleg spotted the below scenario:
Task1 Task2

/* ... */
goto bad_fork_$foo;
/* ... */
perf_event_free_task()
mutex_lock(ctx->lock)
perf_free_event(B)

ctx = B->ctx;

mutex_lock(A->child_mutex)

/* ... */
mutex_unlock(ctx->lock);

free_task();

/* ... */
mutex_unlock(A->child_mutex);
mutex_unlock(ctx->lock)
put_ctx() /* 0 */
ctx->task && !TOMBSTONE

This patch closes the hole by making perf_event_free_task() destroy the
task <-> ctx relation such that perf_event_release_kernel() will no longer
observe the now dead task.

I was testing Daniel's changes with his test case, and tweaked it a
little. Instead of having the runtime equal to the deadline, I
increased the deadline ten fold.
Daniel's test case had:
attr.sched_runtime = 2 * 1000 * 1000; /* 2 ms */
attr.sched_deadline = 2 * 1000 * 1000; /* 2 ms */
attr.sched_period = 2 * 1000 * 1000 * 1000; /* 2 s */
To make it more interesting, I changed it to:
attr.sched_runtime = 2 * 1000 * 1000; /* 2 ms */
attr.sched_deadline = 20 * 1000 * 1000; /* 20 ms */
attr.sched_period = 2 * 1000 * 1000 * 1000; /* 2 s */
The results were rather surprising. The behavior that Daniel's patch
was fixing came back. The task started using much more than .1% of the
CPU. More like 20%.
Looking into this I found that it was due to the dl_entity_overflow()
constantly returning true. That's because it uses the relative period
against relative runtime vs the absolute deadline against absolute
runtime.
runtime / (deadline - t) > dl_runtime / dl_period
