Just to help distinguish the fs->in_exec flag from the current->in_execve
flag, add comments in check_unsafe_exec() and copy_fs() for more
context. Also note that in_execve is only used by TOMOYO now.

sched.h, which defines task_struct, needs nodemask_t - but sched.h is a
frequently used header and ideally shouldn't be pulling in any more code
that it needs to.
This splits out nodemask_types.h which has the definition sched.h needs,
which will avoid a circular header dependency in the alloc tagging patch
series, and as a bonus should speed up kernel build times.

Linus suggested that the kconfig here is confusing:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAHk-=wgUiAtiszwseM1p2fCJ+sC4XWQ+YN4TanFhUgvUqjr9Xw@mail.gmail.com/
Let's break it into three kconfigs controlling distinct things:
- CONFIG_IOMMU_MM_DATA controls if the mm_struct has the additional
fields for the IOMMU. Currently only PASID, but later patches store
a struct iommu_mm_data *
- CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_CPU_PASID controls if the arch needs the scheduling bit
for keeping track of the ENQCMD instruction. x86 will select this if
IOMMU_SVA is enabled
- IOMMU_SVA controls if the IOMMU core compiles in the SVA support code
for iommu driver use and the IOMMU exported API
This way ARM will not enable CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_CPU_PASID

IA-64 was the only architecture which selected ARCH_TASK_STRUCT_ON_STACK.
IA-64 was removed with commit cf8e8658100d ("arch: Remove Itanium (IA-64)
architecture"). Therefore remove support for ARCH_TASK_STRUCT_ON_STACK
as well.
Note: this also reveals a potential bug in powerpc code, which makes use of
__init_task_data without selecting ARCH_TASK_STRUCT_ON_STACK which makes
__init_task_data a no-op. This is broken since commit d11ed3ab3166 ("Expand
INIT_TASK() in init/init_task.c and remove") from 2018 and needs to be
addressed separately.

Low priority tasks (e.g., SCHED_OTHER) can suffer starvation if tasks
with higher priority (e.g., SCHED_FIFO) monopolize CPU(s).
RT Throttling has been introduced a while ago as a (mostly debug)
countermeasure one can utilize to reserve some CPU time for low priority
tasks (usually background type of work, e.g. workqueues, timers, etc.).
It however has its own problems (see documentation) and the undesired
effect of unconditionally throttling FIFO tasks even when no lower
priority activity needs to run (there are mechanisms to fix this issue
as well, but, again, with their own problems).
Introduce deadline servers to service low priority tasks needs under
starvation conditions. Deadline servers are built extending SCHED_DEADLINE
implementation to allow 2-level scheduling (a sched_deadline entity
becomes a container for lower priority scheduling entities).

To charge a freshly allocated kernel object to a memory cgroup, the kernel
needs to obtain an objcg pointer. Currently it does it indirectly by
obtaining the memcg pointer first and then calling to
__get_obj_cgroup_from_memcg().
Usually tasks spend their entire life belonging to the same object cgroup.
So it makes sense to save the objcg pointer on task_struct directly, so
it can be obtained faster. It requires some work on fork, exit and cgroup
migrate paths, but these paths are way colder.
To avoid any costly synchronization the following rules are applied:
1) A task sets it's objcg pointer itself.
2) If a task is being migrated to another cgroup, the least
significant bit of the objcg pointer is set atomically.
3) On the allocation path the objcg pointer is obtained locklessly
using the READ_ONCE() macro and the least significant bit is
checked. If it's set, the following procedure is used to update
it locklessly:
- task->objcg is zeroed using cmpxcg
- new objcg pointer is obtained
- task->objcg is updated using try_cmpxchg
- operation is repeated if try_cmpxcg fails
It guarantees that no updates will be lost if task migration
is racing against objcg pointer update. It also allows to keep
both read and write paths fully lockless.
Because the task is keeping a reference to the objcg, it can't go away
while the task is alive.
This commit doesn't change the way the remote memcg charging works.

glibc/musl breakage
Both glibc and musl define 'struct sched_param' in sched.h, while kernel
has it in uapi/linux/sched/types.h, making it cumbersome to use
sched_getattr(2) or sched_setattr(2) from userspace.
For example, something like this:
#include <sched.h>
#include <linux/sched/types.h>
struct sched_attr sa;
will result in "error: redefinition of ‘struct sched_param’" (note the
code doesn't need sched_param at all -- it needs struct sched_attr
plus some stuff from sched.h).
The situation is, glibc is not going to provide a wrapper for
sched_{get,set}attr, thus the need to include linux/sched_types.h
directly, which leads to the above problem.
Thus, the userspace is left with a few sub-par choices when it wants to
use e.g. sched_setattr(2), such as maintaining a copy of struct
sched_attr definition, or using some other ugly tricks.
OTOH, 'struct sched_param' is well known, defined in POSIX, and it won't
be ever changed (as that would break backward compatibility).
So, while 'struct sched_param' is indeed part of the kernel uapi,
exposing it the way it's done now creates an issue, and hiding it
(like this patch does) fixes that issue, hopefully without creating
another one: common userspace software rely on libc headers, and as
for "special" software (like libc), it looks like glibc and musl
do not rely on kernel headers for 'struct sched_param' definition
(but let's Cc their mailing lists in case it's otherwise).
The alternative to this patch would be to move struct sched_attr to,
say, linux/sched.h, or linux/sched/attr.h (the new file).
Oh, and here is the previous attempt to fix the issue:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20200528135552.GA87103@google.com/
While I support Linus arguments, the issue is still here
and needs to be fixed.
[ mingo: Linus is right, this shouldn't be needed - but on the other
hand I agree that this header is not really helpful to
user-space as-is. So let's pretend that
<uapi/linux/sched/types.h> is only about sched_attr, and
call this commit a workaround for user-space breakage
that it in reality is ... Also, remove the Fixes tag. ]

With PREEMPT_RT there is a rt_mutex recursion problem where
sched_submit_work() can use an rtlock (aka spinlock_t). More
specifically what happens is:
mutex_lock() /* really rt_mutex */
...
__rt_mutex_slowlock_locked()
task_blocks_on_rt_mutex()
// enqueue current task as waiter
// do PI chain walk
rt_mutex_slowlock_block()
schedule()
sched_submit_work()
...
spin_lock() /* really rtlock */
...
__rt_mutex_slowlock_locked()
task_blocks_on_rt_mutex()
// enqueue current task as waiter *AGAIN*
// *CONFUSION*
Fix this by making rt_mutex do the sched_submit_work() early, before
it enqueues itself as a waiter -- before it even knows *if* it will
wait.

added ]]

In preparation for freezer to also use saved_state, remove the
CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT compilation guard around saved_state.
On the arm64 platform I tested which did not have CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT,
there was no statistically significant deviation by applying this patch.

There has been a long standing page cache coherence bug with direct IO.
This provides part of a mechanism to fix it, currently just used by
bcachefs but potentially worth promoting to the VFS.
Direct IO evicts the range of the pagecache being read or written to.
For reads, we need dirty pages to be written to disk, so that the read
doesn't return stale data. For writes, we need to evict that range of
the pagecache so that it's not stale after the write completes.
However, without a locking mechanism to prevent those pages from being
re-added to the pagecache - by a buffered read or page fault - page
cache inconsistency is still possible.
This isn't necessarily just an issue for userspace when they're playing
games; filesystems may hang arbitrary state off the pagecache, and so
page cache inconsistency may cause real filesystem bugs, depending on
the filesystem. This is less of an issue for iomap based filesystems,
but e.g. buffer heads caches disk block mappings (!) and attaches them
to the pagecache, and bcachefs attaches disk reservations to pagecache
pages.
This issue has been hard to fix, because
- we need to add a lock (henceforth called pagecache_add_lock), which
would be held for the duration of the direct IO
- page faults add pages to the page cache, thus need to take the same
lock
- dio -> gup -> page fault thus can deadlock
And we cannot enforce a lock ordering with this lock, since userspace
will be controlling the lock ordering (via the fd and buffer arguments
to direct IOs |
