2015-03-01ebpf: move read-only fields to bpf_prog and shrink bpf_prog_auxDaniel Borkmann2-6/+5
is_gpl_compatible and prog_type should be moved directly into bpf_prog as they stay immutable during bpf_prog's lifetime, are core attributes and they can be locked as read-only later on via bpf_prog_select_runtime(). With a bit of rearranging, this also allows us to shrink bpf_prog_aux to exactly 1 cacheline.

2015-03-01ebpf: add sched_cls_type and map it to sk_filter's verifier opsDaniel Borkmann1-2/+13
As discussed recently and at netconf/netdev01, we want to prevent making bpf_verifier_ops registration available for modules, but have them at a controlled place inside the kernel instead. The reason for this is, that out-of-tree modules can go crazy and define and register any verfifier ops they want, doing all sorts of crap, even bypassing available GPLed eBPF helper functions. We don't want to offer such a shiny playground, of course, but keep strict control to ourselves inside the core kernel. This also encourages us to design eBPF user helpers carefully and generically, so they can be shared among various subsystems using eBPF. For the eBPF traffic classifier (cls_bpf), it's a good start to share the same helper facilities as we currently do in eBPF for socket filters. That way, we have BPF_PROG_TYPE_SCHED_CLS look like it's own type, thus one day if there's a good reason to diverge the set of helper functions from the set available to socket filters, we keep ABI compatibility. In future, we could place all bpf_prog_type_list at a central place, perhaps.

2015-03-01ebpf: remove kernel test stubsDaniel Borkmann2-81/+0
Now that we have BPF_PROG_TYPE_SOCKET_FILTER up and running, we can remove the test stubs which were added to get the verifier suite up. We can just let the test cases probe under socket filter type instead. In the fill/spill test case, we cannot (yet) access fields from the context (skb), but we may adapt that test case in future.

2015-03-01locking/rtmutex: Set state back to running on errorSebastian Andrzej Siewior1-0/+1
The "usual" path is: - rt_mutex_slowlock() - set_current_state() - task_blocks_on_rt_mutex() (ret 0) - __rt_mutex_slowlock() - sleep or not but do return with __set_current_state(TASK_RUNNING) - back to caller. In the early error case where task_blocks_on_rt_mutex() return -EDEADLK we never change the task's state back to RUNNING. I assume this is intended. Without this change after ww_mutex using rt_mutex the selftest passes but later I get plenty of: | bad: scheduling from the idle thread! backtraces.

2015-03-01idle / sleep: Avoid excessive disabling and enabling interruptsRafael J. Wysocki1-1/+0
Disabling interrupts at the end of cpuidle_enter_freeze() is not useful, because its caller, cpuidle_idle_call(), re-enables them right away after invoking it. To avoid that unnecessary back and forth dance with interrupts, make cpuidle_enter_freeze() enable interrupts after calling enter_freeze_proper() and drop the local_irq_disable() at its end, so that all of the code paths in it end up with interrupts enabled. Then, cpuidle_idle_call() will not need to re-enable interrupts after calling cpuidle_enter_freeze() any more, because the latter will return with interrupts enabled, in analogy with cpuidle_enter().

2015-02-27rcu: Tighten up affinity and check for sysidlePaul E. McKenney2-7/+7
If the RCU grace-period kthread invoking rcu_sysidle_check_cpu() happens to be running on the tick_do_timer_cpu initially, then rcu_bind_gp_kthread() won't bind it. This kthread might then migrate before invoking rcu_gp_fqs(), which will trigger the WARN_ON_ONCE() in rcu_sysidle_check_cpu(). This commit therefore makes rcu_bind_gp_kthread() do the binding even if the kthread is currently on the same CPU. Because this incurs added overhead, this commit also causes each RCU grace-period kthread to invoke rcu_bind_gp_kthread() once at boot rather than at the beginning of each grace period. And as long as rcu_bind_gp_kthread() is being modified, this commit eliminates its #ifdef. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

2015-02-26rcu: Fixes to NO_HZ_FULL sysidle accountingPaul E. McKenney1-3/+3
On second and subsequent passes through quiescent-state forcing, the isidle variable was initialized to false, which would prevent full sysidle state from being reached if a grace period needed more than one round of quiescent-state forcing (which most should not). However, the check for offline CPUs in the quiescent-state forcing main loop had the wrong sense, which could prevent CPUs from ever entering full sysidle state. This commit fixes both of these bugs. Given that sysidle is not yet wired up, this has no effect in old kernels, but might have proven frustrating had anyone attempted to wire it up. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2015-02-26rcutorture: Make consistent use of variablesPaul E. McKenney1-1/+1
The "if" statement at the beginning of rcu_torture_writer() should use the same set of variables.

2015-02-26rcu: Add Kconfig option to expedite grace periods during bootPaul E. McKenney1-1/+10
This commit adds a CONFIG_RCU_EXPEDITE_BOOT Kconfig parameter that emulates a very early boot rcu_expedite_gp(). A late-boot call to rcu_end_inkernel_boot() will provide the corresponding rcu_unexpedite_gp(). The late-boot call to rcu_end_inkernel_boot() should be made just before init is spawned. According to Arjan: > To show the boot time, I'm using the timestamp of the "Write protecting" > line, that's pretty much the last thing we print prior to ring 3 execution. > > A kernel with default RCU behavior (inside KVM, only virtual devices) > looks like this: > > [ 0.038724] Write protecting the kernel read-only data: 10240k > > a kernel with expedited RCU (using the command line option, so that I > don't have to recompile between measurements and thus am completely > oranges-to-oranges) > > [ 0.031768] Write protecting the kernel read-only data: 10240k > > which, in percentage, is an 18% improvement.

2015-02-26PM / sleep: add configurable delay for pm_testBrian Norris1-2/+11
When CONFIG_PM_DEBUG=y, we provide a sysfs file (/sys/power/pm_test) for selecting one of a few suspend test modes, where rather than entering a full suspend state, the kernel will perform some subset of suspend steps, wait 5 seconds, and then resume back to normal operation. This mode is useful for (among other things) observing the state of the system just before entering a sleep mode, for debugging or analysis purposes. However, a constant 5 second wait is not sufficient for some sorts of analysis; for example, on an SoC, one might want to use external tools to probe the power states of various on-chip controllers or clocks. This patch turns this 5 second delay into a configurable module parameter, so users can determine how long to wait in this pseudo-suspend state before resuming the system. Example (wait 30 seconds); # echo 30 > /sys/module/suspend/parameters/pm_test_delay # echo core > /sys/power/pm_test # time echo mem > /sys/power/state ...

2015-02-25perf/x86/intel: Support task events with Intel CQMMatt Fleming1-0/+2
Add support for task events as well as system-wide events. This change has a big impact on the way that we gather LLC occupancy values in intel_cqm_event_read(). Currently, for system-wide (per-cpu) events we defer processing to userspace which knows how to discard all but one cpu result per package. Things aren't so simple for task events because we need to do the value aggregation ourselves. To do this, we defer updating the LLC occupancy value in event->count from intel_cqm_event_read() and do an SMP cross-call to read values for all packages in intel_cqm_event_count(). We need to ensure that we only do this for one task event per cache group, otherwise we'll report duplicate values. If we're a system-wide event we want to fallback to the default perf_event_count() implementation. Refactor this into a common function so that we don't duplicate the code. Also, introduce PERF_TYPE_INTEL_CQM, since we need a way to track an event's task (if the event isn't per-cpu) inside of the Intel CQM PMU driver. This task information is only availble in the upper layers of the perf infrastructure. Other perf backends stash the target task in event->hw.*target so we need to do something similar. The task is used to determine whether events should share a cache group and an RMID.

2015-02-25perf: Add ->count() function to read per-package countersMatt Fleming1-1/+4
For PMU drivers that record per-package counters, the ->count variable cannot be used to record an accurate aggregated value, since it's not possible to perform SMP cross-calls to cpus on other packages from the context in which we update ->count. Introduce a new optional ->count() accessor function that can be used to customize how values are collected. If a PMU driver doesn't provide a ->count() function, we fallback to the existing code. There is necessarily a window of staleness with this approach because the task that generated the counter value may not have been scheduled by the cpu recently. An alternative and more complex approach would be to use a hrtimer to periodically refresh the values from a more permissive scheduling context. So, we're trading off complexity for accuracy.

2015-02-23audit: move the tree pruning to a dedicated threadImre Palik1-28/+60
When file auditing is enabled, during a low memory situation, a memory allocation with __GFP_FS can lead to pruning the inode cache. Which can, in turn lead to audit_tree_freeing_mark() being called. This can call audit_schedule_prune(), that tries to fork a pruning thread, and waits until the thread is created. But forking needs memory, and the memory allocations there are done with __GFP_FS. So we are waiting merrily for some __GFP_FS memory allocations to complete, while holding some filesystem locks. This can take a while ... This patch creates a single thread for pruning the tree from audit_add_tree_rule(), and thus avoids the deadlock that the on-demand thread creation can cause.

Pull MIPS updates from Ralf Baechle: "This is the main pull request for MIPS: - a number of fixes that didn't make the 3.19 release. - a number of cleanups. - preliminary support for Cavium's Octeon 3 SOCs which feature up to 48 MIPS64 R3 cores with FPU and hardware virtualization. - support for MIPS R6 processors. Revision 6 of the MIPS architecture is a major revision of the MIPS architecture which does away with many of original sins of the architecture such as branch delay slots. This and other changes in R6 require major changes throughout the entire MIPS core architecture code and make up for the lion share of this pull request. - finally some preparatory work for eXtendend Physical Address support, which allows support of up to 40 bit of physical address space on 32 bit processors" [ Ahh, MIPS can't leave the PAE brain damage alone.

2015-02-19debug: prevent entering debug mode on panic/exception.Colin Cross1-0/+17
On non-developer devices, kgdb prevents the device from rebooting after a panic. Incase of panics and exceptions, to allow the device to reboot, prevent entering debug mode to avoid getting stuck waiting for the user to interact with debugger. To avoid entering the debugger on panic/exception without any extra configuration, panic_timeout is being used which can be set via /proc/sys/kernel/panic at run time and CONFIG_PANIC_TIMEOUT sets the default value. Setting panic_timeout indicates that the user requested machine to perform unattended reboot after panic. We dont want to get stuck waiting for the user input incase of panic.

2015-02-19kdb: Const qualifier for kdb_getstr's prompt argumentDaniel Thompson2-2/+2

2015-02-19kdb: Provide forward search at more promptDaniel Thompson3-5/+26
Currently kdb allows the output of comamnds to be filtered using the | grep feature. This is useful but does not permit the output emitted shortly after a string match to be examined without wading through the entire unfiltered output of the command. Such a feature is particularly useful to navigate function traces because these traces often have a useful trigger string *before* the point of interest. This patch reuses the existing filtering logic to introduce a simple forward search to kdb that can be triggered from the more prompt.

2015-02-19kdb: Fix a prompt management bug when using | grepDaniel Thompson1-2/+2
Currently when the "| grep" feature is used to filter the output of a command then the prompt is not displayed for the subsequent command. Likewise any characters typed by the user are also not echoed to the display. This rather disconcerting problem eventually corrects itself when the user presses Enter and the kdb_grepping_flag is cleared as kdb_parse() tries to make sense of whatever they typed. This patch resolves the problem by moving the clearing of this flag from the middle of command processing to the beginning.
