If we reach the limit of modprobe_limit threads running the next
request_module() call will fail. The original reason for adding a kill
was to do away with possible issues with in old circumstances which would
create a recursive series of request_module() calls.
We can do better than just be super aggressive and reject calls once we've
reached the limit by simply making pending callers wait until the
threshold has been reduced, and then throttling them in, one by one.
This throttling enables requests over the kmod concurrent limit to be
processed once a pending request completes. Only the first item queued up
to wait is woken up. The assumption here is once a task is woken it will
have no other option to also kick the queue to check if there are more
pending tasks -- regardless of whether or not it was successful.
By throttling and processing only max kmod concurrent tasks we ensure we
avoid unexpected fatal request_module() calls, and we keep memory
consumption on module loading to a minimum.
With x86_64 qemu, with 4 cores, 4 GiB of RAM it takes the following run
time to run both tests:
time ./kmod.sh -t 0008
real 0m16.366s
user 0m0.883s
sys 0m8.916s
time ./kmod.sh -t 0009

This adds a new stress test driver for kmod: the kernel module loader.
The new stress test driver, test_kmod, is only enabled as a module right
now. It should be possible to load this as built-in and load tests
early (refer to the force_init_test module parameter), however since a
lot of test can get a system out of memory fast we leave this disabled
for now.
Using a system with 1024 MiB of RAM can *easily* get your kernel OOM
fast with this test driver.
The test_kmod driver exposes API knobs for us to fine tune simple
request_module() and get_fs_type() calls. Since these API calls only
allow each one parameter a test driver for these is rather simple.
Other factors that can help out test driver though are the number of
calls we issue and knowing current limitations of each. This exposes
configuration as much as possible through userspace to be able to build
tests directly from userspace.
Since it allows multiple misc devices its will eventually (once we add a
knob to let us create new devices at will) also be possible to perform
more tests in parallel, provided you have enough memory.
We only enable tests we know work as of right now.

The following test cases currently fail, as such they are not currently
enabled by default:
# tools/testing/selftests/kmod/kmod.sh -t 0008
# tools/testing/selftests/kmod/kmod.sh -t 0009
To be sure to run them as intended please unload both of the modules:
o test_module
o xfs
And ensure they are not loaded on your system prior to testing them. If
you use these paritions for your rootfs you can change the default test
driver used for get_fs_type() by exporting it into your environment. For
example of other test defaults you can override refer to kmod.sh
allow_user_defaults().
Behind the scenes this is how we fine tune at a test case prior to
hitting a trigger to run it:
cat /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/config
echo -n "2" > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/config_test_case
echo -n "ext4" > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/config_test_fs
echo -n "80" > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/config_num_threads
cat /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/config
echo -n "1" > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/config_num_threads
Finally to trigger:
echo -n "1" > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/trigger_config
The kmod.sh script uses the above constructs to build different test cases.
A bit of interpretation of the current failures follows, first two
premises:
a) When request_module() is used userspace figures out an optimized
version of module order for us. Once it finds the modules it needs, as
per depmod symbol dep map, it will finit_module() the respective
modules which are needed for the original request_module() request.
b) We have an optimization in place whereby if a kernel uses
request_module() on a module already loaded we never bother userspace
as the module already is loaded. This is all handled by kernel/kmod.c.
A few things to consider to help identify root causes of issues:
0) kmod 19 has a broken heuristic for modules being assumed to be
built-in to your kernel and will return 0 even though request_module()
failed. Upgrade to a newer version of kmod.
1) A get_fs_type() call for "xfs" will request_module() for "fs-xfs",
not for "xfs". The optimization in kernel described in b) fails to
catch if we have a lot of consecutive get_fs_type() calls. The reason
is the optimization in place does not look for aliases. This means two
consecutive get_fs_type() calls will bump kmod_concurrent, whereas
request_module() will not.
This one explanation why test case 0009 fails at least once for
get_fs_type().
2) If a module fails to load --- for whatever reason (kmod_concurrent
limit reached, file not yet present due to rootfs switch, out of
memory) we have a period of time during which module request for the
same name either with request_module() or get_fs_type() will *also*
fail to load even if the file for the module is ready.
This explains why *multiple* NULLs are possible on test 0009.
3) finit_module() consumes quite a bit of memory.
4) Filesystems typically also have more dependent modules than other
modules, its important to note though that even though a get_fs_type()
call does not incur additional kmod_concurrent bumps, since userspace
loads dependencies it finds it needs via finit_module_fd(), it *will*
take much more memory to load a module with a lot of dependencies.
Because of 3) and 4) we will easily run into out of memory failures with
certain tests. For instance test 0006 fails on qemu with 1024 MiB of RAM.
It panics a box after reaping all userspace processes and still not
having enough memory to reap.

semantic
__GFP_REPEAT was designed to allow retry-but-eventually-fail semantic to
the page allocator. This has been true but only for allocations
requests larger than PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER. It has been always
ignored for smaller sizes. This is a bit unfortunate because there is
no way to express the same semantic for those requests and they are
considered too important to fail so they might end up looping in the
page allocator for ever, similarly to GFP_NOFAIL requests.
Now that the whole tree has been cleaned up and accidental or misled
usage of __GFP_REPEAT flag has been removed for !costly requests we can
give the original flag a better name and more importantly a more useful
semantic. Let's rename it to __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL which tells the user
that the allocator would try really hard but there is no promise of a
success. This will work independent of the order and overrides the
default allocator behavior. Page allocator users have several levels of
guarantee vs. cost options (take GFP_KERNEL as an example)
- GFP_KERNEL & ~__GFP_RECLAIM - optimistic allocation without _any_
attempt to free memory at all. The most light weight mode which even
doesn't kick the background reclaim. Should be used carefully because
it might deplete the memory and the next user might hit the more
aggressive reclaim
- GFP_KERNEL & ~__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM (or GFP_NOWAIT)- optimistic
allocation without any attempt to free memory from the current
context but can wake kswapd to reclaim memory if the zone is below
the low watermark. Can be used from either atomic contexts or when
the request is a performance optimization and there is another
fallback for a slow path.
- (GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_HIGH) & ~__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM (aka GFP_ATOMIC) -
non sleeping allocation with an expensive fallback so it can access
some portion of memory reserves. Usually used from interrupt/bh
context with an expensive slow path fallback.
- GFP_KERNEL - both background and direct reclaim are allowed and the
_default_ page allocator behavior is used. That means that !costly
allocation requests are basically nofail but there is no guarantee of
that behavior so failures have to be checked properly by callers
(e.g. OOM killer victim is allowed to fail currently).
- GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NORETRY - overrides the default allocator behavior
and all allocation requests fail early rather than cause disruptive
reclaim (one round of reclaim in this implementation). The OOM killer
is not invoked.
- GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL - overrides the default allocator
behavior and all allocation requests try really hard. The request
will fail if the reclaim cannot make any progress. The OOM killer
won't be triggered.
- GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NOFAIL - overrides the default allocator behavior
and all allocation requests will loop endlessly until they succeed.
This might be really dangerous especially for larger orders.
Existing users of __GFP_REPEAT are changed to __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL
because they already had their semantic. No new users are added.
__alloc_pages_slowpath is changed to bail out for __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL if
there is no progress and we have already passed the OOM point.
This means that all the reclaim opportunities have been exhausted except
the most disruptive one (the OOM killer) and a user defined fallback
behavior is more sensible than keep retrying in the page allocator.

Add the following tests to ensure we do not regress:
o Test using a buffer full of space (PAGE_SIZE-1) followed by a
single digit works
o Test using a buffer full of spaces (PAGE_SIZE or over) will fail
As tests increase instead of unloading the module and reloading it we
can just do a shell reset_vals() with a reset to values we know are set
at init on the driver.

This adds a generic script to let us more easily add more tests cases.
Since we really have only two types of tests cases just fold them into
the one file. Each test unit is now identified into its separate
function:
# ./sysctl.sh -l
Test ID list:
TEST_ID x NUM_TEST
TEST_ID: Test ID
NUM_TESTS: Number of recommended times to run the test
0001 x 1 - tests proc_dointvec_minmax()
0002 x 1 - tests proc_dostring()
For now we start off with what we had before, and run only each test
once. We can now watch a test case until it fails:
./sysctl.sh -w 0002
We can also run a test case x number of times, say we want to run a test
case 100 times:

The existing tools/testing/selftests/sysctl/ tests include two test
cases, but these use existing production kernel sysctl interfaces. We
want to expand test coverage but we can't just be looking for random
safe production values to poke at, that's just insane!
Instead just dedicate a test driver for debugging purposes and port the
existing scripts to use it. This will make it easier for further tests
to be added.
Subsequent patches will extend our test coverage for sysctl.
The stress test driver uses a new license (GPL on Linux, copyleft-next
outside of Linux). Linus was fine with this [0] and later due to Ted's
and Alans's request ironed out an "or" language clause to use [1] which
is already present upstream.

KPROBES_ON_FTRACE is only available on powerpc64le. Update comment to
clarify this.
Also, we should use an offset of 8 to ensure that the probe does not
fall on ftrace location. The current offset of 4 will fall before the
function local entry point and won't fire, while an offset of 12 or 16
will fall on ftrace location. Offset 8 is currently guaranteed to not be
the ftrace location.

With some configs, objtool reports the following warning:
arch/x86/kernel/ftrace.o: warning: objtool: ftrace_modify_code_direct()+0x2d: sibling call from callable instruction with modified stack frame
The instruction it's complaining about isn't actually a sibling call.
It's just a normal jump to an address inside the function. Objtool
thought it was a sibling call because the instruction's jump_dest wasn't
initialized because the function was supposed to be ignored due to its
use of sync_core().
Objtool ended up validating the function instead of ignoring it because
it didn't properly recognize a sibling call to the function. So fix the
sibling call logic. Also add a warning to catch ignored functions being
validated so we'll get a more useful error message next time.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm
Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"libnvdimm updates for the latest ACPI and UEFI specifications. This
pull request also includes new 'struct dax_operations' enabling to
undo the abuse of copy_user_nocache() for copy operations to pmem.
The dax work originally missed 4.12 to address concerns raised by Al.
Summary:
- Introduce the _flushcache() family of memory copy helpers and use
them for persistent memory write operations on x86. The
_flushcache() semantic indicates that the cache is either bypassed
for the copy operation (movnt) or any lines dirtied by the copy
operation are written back (clwb, clflushopt, or clflush).
- Extend dax_operations with ->copy_from_iter() and ->flush()
operations. These operations and other infrastructure updates allow
all persistent memory specific dax functionality to be pushed into
libnvdimm and the pmem driver directly. It also allows dax-specific
sysfs attributes to be linked to a host device, for example:
/sys/block/pmem0/dax/write_cache
- Add support for the new NVDIMM platform/firmware mechanisms
introduced in ACPI 6.2 and UEFI 2.7. This support includes the v1.2
namespace label format, extensions to the address-range-scrub
command set, new error injection commands, and a new BTT
(block-translation-table) layout. These updates support inter-OS
and pre-OS compatibility.
- Fix a longstanding memory corruption bug in nfit_test.
- Make the pmem and nvdimm-region 'badblocks' sysfs files poll(2)
capable.
- Miscellaneous fixes and small updates across libnvdimm and the nfit
driver.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jmorris/linux-security
Pull security layer updates from James Morris:
- a major update for AppArmor. From JJ:
* several bug fixes and cleanups
* the patch to add symlink support to securityfs that was floated
on the list earlier and the apparmorfs changes that make use of
securityfs symlinks
* it introduces the domain labeling base code that Ubuntu has been
carrying for several years, with several cleanups applied. And it
converts the current mediation over to using the domain labeling
base, which brings domain stacking support with it. This finally
will bring the base upstream code in line with Ubuntu and provide
a base to upstream the new feature work that Ubuntu carries.
* This does _not_ contain any of the newer apparmor mediation
features/controls (mount, signals, network, keys, ...) that
Ubuntu is currently carrying, all of which will be RFC'd on top
of this.
- Notable also is the Infiniband work in SELinux, and the new file:map
permission. From Paul:
"While we're down to 21 patches for v4.13 (it was 31 for v4.12),
the diffstat jumps up tremendously with over 2k of line changes.
Almost all of these changes are the SELinux/IB work done by
Daniel Jurgens; some other noteworthy changes include a NFS v4.2
labeling fix, a new file:map permission, and reporting of policy
capabilities on policy load"
There's also now genfscon labeling support for tracefs, which was
lost in v4.1 with the separation from debugfs.
- Smack incorporates a safer socket check in file_receive, and adds a
cap_capable call in privilege check.
- TPM as usual has a bunch of fixes and enhancements.
- Multiple calls to security_add_hooks() can now be made for the same
LSM, to allow LSMs to have hook declarations across multiple files.
- IMA now supports different "ima_appraise=" modes (eg. log, fix) from
the boot command line.

Pull ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"These mostly update the ACPICA code in the kernel to upstream revision
20170531 which covers all of the new material from ACPI 6.2, including
new tables (WSMT, HMAT, PPTT), new subtables and definition changes
for some existing tables (BGRT, HEST, SRAT, TPM2, PCCT), new resource
descriptor macros for pin control, support for new predefined methods
(_LSI, _LSR, _LSW, _HMA), fixes and cleanups.
On top of that, an additional ACPICA change from Kees (which also is
upstream already) switches all of the definitions of function pointer
structures in ACPICA to use designated initializers so as to make the
structure layout randomization GCC plugin work with it.
The rest is a few fixes and cleanups in the EC driver, an xpower PMIC
driver update, a new backlight blacklist entry, and update of the
tables configfs interface and a messages formatting cleanup.
Specifics:
- Update the ACPICA code in the kernel to upstream revision revision
20170531 (which covers all of the new material from ACPI 6.2)
including:
* Support for the PinFunction(), PinConfig(), PinGroup(),
PinGroupFunction(), and PinGroupConfig() resource descriptors
(Mika Westerberg).
* Support for new subtables in HEST and SRAT, new notify value for
HEST, header support for TPM2 table changes, and BGRT Status
field update (Bob Moore).
* Support for new PCCT subtables (David Box).
* Support for _LSI, _LSR, _LSW, and _HMA as predefined methods
(Erik Schmauss).
* Support for the new WSMT, HMAT, and PPTT tables (Lv Zheng).
* New UUID values for Processor Properties (Bob Moore).
* New notify values for memory attributes and graceful shutdown
(Bob Moore).
* Fix related to the PCAT_COMPAT MADT flag (Janosch Hildebrand).
* Resource to AML conversion fix for resources containing GPIOs
(Mika Westerberg).
* Disassembler-related updates (Bob Moore, David Box, Erik
Schmauss).
* Assorted fixes and cleanups (Bob Moore, Erik Schmauss, Lv Zheng,
Cao Jin).
- Modify ACPICA to always use designated initializers for function
pointer structures to make the structure layout randomization GCC
plugin work with it (Kees Cook).
- Update the tables configfs interface to unload SSDTs on configfs
entry removal (Jan Kiszka).
- Add support for the GPI1 regulator to the xpower PMIC Operation
Region handler (Hans de Goede).
- Fix ACPI EC issues related to conflicting EC definitions in the
ECDT and in the ACPI namespace (Lv Zheng, Carlo Caione, Chris
Chiu).

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"The big ticket items here are the rework of suspend-to-idle in order
to add proper support for power button wakeup from it on recent Dell
laptops and the rework of interfaces exporting the current CPU
frequency on x86.
In addition to that, support for a few new pieces of hardware is
added, the PCI/ACPI device wakeup infrastructure is simplified
significantly and the wakeup IRQ framework is fixed to unbreak the IRQ
bus locking infrastructure.
Also, there are some functional improvements for intel_pstate, tools
updates and small fixes and cleanups all over.
Specifics:
- Rework suspend-to-idle to allow it to take wakeup events signaled
by the EC into account on ACPI-based platforms in order to properly
support power button wakeup from suspend-to-idle on recent Dell
laptops (Rafael Wysocki).
That includes the core suspend-to-idle code rework, support for the
Low Power S0 _DSM interface, and support for the ACPI INT0002
Virtual GPIO device from Hans de Goede (required for USB keyboard
wakeup from suspend-to-idle to work on some machines).
- Stop trying to export the current CPU frequency via /proc/cpuinfo
on x86 as that is inaccurate and confusing (Len Brown).
- Rework the way in which the current CPU frequency is exported by
the kernel (over the cpufreq sysfs interface) on x86 systems with
the APERF and MPERF registers by always using values read from
these registers, when available, to compute the current frequency
regardless of which cpufreq driver is in use (Len Brown).
- Rework the PCI/ACPI device wakeup infrastructure to remove the
questionable and artificial distinction between "devices that can
wake up the system from sleep states" and "devices that can
generate wakeup signals in the working state" from it, which allows
the code to be simplified quite a bit (Rafael Wysocki).
- Fix the wakeup IRQ framework by making it use SRCU instead of RCU
which doesn't allow sleeping in the read-side critical sections,
but which in turn is expected to be allowed by the IRQ bus locking
infrastructure (Thomas Gleixner).
- Modify some computations in the intel_pstate driver to avoid
rounding errors resulting from them (Srinivas Pandruvada).
- Reduce the overhead of the intel_pstate driver in the HWP
(hardware-managed P-states) mode and when the "performance" P-state
selection algorithm is in use by making it avoid registering
scheduler callbacks in those cases (Len Brown).
- Rework the energy_performance_preference sysfs knob in intel_pstate
by changing the values that correspond to different symbolic hint
names used by it (Len Brown).
- Make it possible to use more than one cpuidle driver at the same
time on ARM (Daniel Lezcano).
- Make it possible to prevent the cpuidle menu governor from using
the 0 state by disabling it via sysfs (Nicholas Piggin).
- Add support for FFH (Fixed Functional Hardware) MWAIT in ACPI C1 on
AMD systems (Yazen Ghannam).
- Make the CPPC cpufreq driver take the lowest nonlinear performance
information into account (Prashanth Prakash).
- Add support for hi3660 to the cpufreq-dt driver, fix the imx6q
driver and clean up the sfi, exynos5440 and intel_pstate drivers
(Colin Ian King, Krzysztof Kozlowski, Octavian Purdila, Rafael
Wysocki, Tao Wang).
- Fix a few minor issues in the generic power domains (genpd)
framework and clean it up somewhat (Krzysztof Kozlowski, Mikko
Perttunen, Viresh Kumar).
- Fix a couple of minor issues in the operating performance points
(OPP) framework and clean it up somewhat (Viresh Kumar).
- Fix a CONFIG dependency in the hibernation core and clean it up
slightly (Balbir Singh, Arvind Yadav, BaoJun Luo).
- Add rk3228 support to the rockchip-io adaptive voltage scaling
(AVS) driver (David Wu).
- Fix an incorrect bit shift operation in the RAPL power capping
driver (Adam Lessnau).
- Add support for the EPP field in the HWP (hardware managed
P-states) control register, HWP.EPP, to the x86_energy_perf_policy
tool and update msr-index.h with HWP.EPP values (Len Brown).
- Fix some minor issues in the turbostat tool (Len Brown).
- Add support for AMD family 0x17 CPUs to the cpupower tool and fix a
minor issue in it (Sherry Hurwitz).
- Assorted cleanups, mostly related to the constification of some
data structures (Arvind Yadav, Joe Perches, Kees Cook, Krzysztof
Kozlowski)"

We currently fail the MMAP event processing if we don't have the MMAP
event's specific arch unwind support compiled in.
That's wrong and can lead to unresolved mmaps in report output for 32bit
binaries on 64bit server, like in this example on x86_64 server:
$ cat ex.c
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
while (1) {}
}
$ gcc -o ex -m32 ex.c
$ perf record ./ex
^C[ perf record: Woken up 2 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.371 MB perf.data (9322 samples) ]
Before:
$ perf report --stdio
SNIP
# Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol
# ........ ....... ................ ......................
#
100.00% ex [unknown] [.] 0x00000000080483de
0.00% ex [unknown] [.] 0x00000000f76dba4f
0.00% ex [unknown] [.] 0x00000000f76e4c11
0.00% ex [unknown] [.] 0x00000000f76daa30
After:
$ perf report --stdio
SNIP
# Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol
# ........ ....... ............. ...............
#
100.00% ex ex [.] main
0.00% ex ld-2.24.so [.] _dl_start
0.00% ex ld-2.24.so [.] do_lookup_x
0.00% ex ld-2.24.so [.] _start
The fix is not to fail, just warn if there's not unwind support compiled
in.

We should set attr.exclude_kernel when probing for attr.precise_ip
level, otherwise !CAP_SYS_ADMIN users will not default to skidless
samples in capable hardware.
The increase in the paranoid level in commit 0161028b7c8a ("perf/core:
Change the default paranoia level to 2") broke this, fix it by excluding
kernel samples when probing.
Before:
$ perf record usleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.018 MB perf.data (6 samples) ]
$ perf evlist -v
cycles:u: sample_freq: 4000, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|PERIOD, exclude_kernel: 1
After:
$ perf record usleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.018 MB perf.data (8 samples) ]
$ perf evlist -v
cycles:ppp: sample_freq: 4000, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|PERIOD, exclude_kernel: 1, precise_ip: 3
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
$
To further clarify: we always set .exclude_kernel when non !CAP_SYS_ADMIN
users profile, its just on the attr.precise_ip probing that we weren't doing
so, fix it.

Pull objtool updates from Ingo Molnar:
"This is an extensive rewrite of the objdump tool to track all stack
pointer modifications through the machine instructions of disassembled
functions found in kernel .o files.
This re-design removes the prior dependency on CONFIG_FRAME_POINTERS,
with the goal to prepare the tool to generate kernel debuginfo data in
the future. There's also an increase in checking/tracking robustness
as a side effect as well.
No (intended) changes to existing functionality"
* 'core-objtool-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
objtool: Silence warnings for functions which use IRET
objtool: Implement stack validation 2.0

Pull uuid subsystem from Christoph Hellwig:
"This is the new uuid subsystem, in which Amir, Andy and I have started
consolidating our uuid/guid helpers and improving the types used for
them. Note that various other subsystems have pulled in this tree, so
I'd like it to go in early.
UUID/GUID summary:
- introduce the new uuid_t/guid_t types that are going to replace the
somewhat confusing uuid_be/uuid_le types and make the terminology
fit the various specs, as well as the userspace libuuid library.
(me, based on a previous version from Amir)
- consolidated generic uuid/guid helper functions lifted from XFS and
libnvdimm (Amir and me)
- conversions to the new types and helpers (Amir, Andy and me)"
