Commit 7b4537199a4a ("kbuild: link symbol CRCs at final link, removing
CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS") made modpost output CRCs in the same way
whether the EXPORT_SYMBOL() is placed in *.c or *.S.
For further cleanups, this commit applies a similar approach to the
entire data structure of EXPORT_SYMBOL().
The EXPORT_SYMBOL() compilation is split into two stages.
When a source file is compiled, EXPORT_SYMBOL() will be converted into
a dummy symbol in the .export_symbol section.
For example,
EXPORT_SYMBOL(foo);
EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS_GPL(bar, BAR_NAMESPACE);
will be encoded into the following assembly code:
.section ".export_symbol","a"
__export_symbol_foo:
.asciz "" /* license */
.asciz "" /* name space */
.balign 8
.quad foo /* symbol reference */
.previous
.section ".export_symbol","a"
__export_symbol_bar:
.asciz "GPL" /* license */
.asciz "BAR_NAMESPACE" /* name space */
.balign 8
.quad bar /* symbol reference */
.previous
They are mere markers to tell modpost the name, license, and namespace
of the symbols. They will be dropped from the final vmlinux and modules
because the *(.export_symbol) will go into /DISCARD/ in the linker script.
Then, modpost extracts all the information about EXPORT_SYMBOL() from the
.export_symbol section, and generates the final C code:
KSYMTAB_FUNC(foo, "", "");
KSYMTAB_FUNC(bar, "_gpl", "BAR_NAMESPACE");
KSYMTAB_FUNC() (or KSYMTAB_DATA() if it is data) is expanded to struct
kernel_symbol that will be linked to the vmlinux or a module.
With this change, EXPORT_SYMBOL() works in the same way for *.c and *.S
files, providing the following benefits.
[1] Deprecate EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL()
In the old days, EXPORT_SYMBOL() was only available in C files. To export
a symbol in *.S, EXPORT_SYMBOL() was placed in a separate *.c file.
arch/arm/kernel/armksyms.c is one example written in the classic manner.
Commit 22823ab419d8 ("EXPORT_SYMBOL() for asm") removed this limitation.
Since then, EXPORT_SYMBOL() can be placed close to the symbol definition
in *.S files. It was a nice improvement.
However, as that commit mentioned, you need to use EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL()
for data objects on some architectures.
In the new approach, modpost checks symbol's type (STT_FUNC or not),
and outputs KSYMTAB_FUNC() or KSYMTAB_DATA() accordingly.
There are only two users of EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL:
EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL_GPL(empty_zero_page) (arch/ia64/kernel/head.S)
EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL(ia64_ivt) (arch/ia64/kernel/ivt.S)
They are transformed as follows and output into .vmlinux.export.c
KSYMTAB_DATA(empty_zero_page, "_gpl", "");
KSYMTAB_DATA(ia64_ivt, "", "");
The other EXPORT_SYMBOL users in ia64 assembly are output as
KSYMTAB_FUNC().
EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL() is now deprecated.
[2] merge <linux/export.h> and <asm-generic/export.h>
There are two similar header implementations:
include/linux/export.h for .c files
include/asm-generic/export.h for .S files
Ideally, the functionality should be consistent between them, but they
tend to diverge.
Commit 8651ec01daed ("module: add support for symbol namespaces.") did
not support the namespace for *.S files.
This commit shifts the essential implementation part to C, which supports
EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS() for *.S files.
<asm/export.h> and <asm-generic/export.h> will remain as a wrapper of
<linux/export.h> for a while.
They will be removed after #include <asm/export.h> directives are all
replaced with #include <linux/export.h>.
[3] Implement CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS in one-pass algorithm (by a later commit)
When CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is enabled, Kbuild recursively traverses
the directory tree to determine which EXPORT_SYMBOL to trim. If an
EXPORT_SYMBOL turns out to be unused by anyone, Kbuild begins the
second traverse, where some source files are recompiled with their
EXPORT_SYMBOL() tuned into a no-op.
We can do this better now; modpost can selectively emit KSYMTAB entries
that are really used by modules.

This reverts commit 700dea5a0bea9f64eba89fae7cb2540326fdfdc1.
The reason for that commit was --sort=ORDER introduced in
tar 1.28 (2014). More than 3 years have passed since then.
Requiring GNU tar 1.28 should be fine now because we require
GCC 5.1 (2015).

When a tick broadcast clockevent device is initialized for one shot mode
then tick_broadcast_setup_oneshot() OR's the periodic broadcast mode
cpumask into the oneshot broadcast cpumask.
This is required when switching from periodic broadcast mode to oneshot
broadcast mode to ensure that CPUs which are waiting for periodic
broadcast are woken up on the next tick.
But it is subtly broken, when an active broadcast device is replaced and
the system is already in oneshot (NOHZ/HIGHRES) mode. Victor observed
this and debugged the issue.
Then the OR of the periodic broadcast CPU mask is wrong as the periodic
cpumask bits are sticky after tick_broadcast_enable() set it for a CPU
unless explicitly cleared via tick_broadcast_disable().
That means that this sets all other CPUs which have tick broadcasting
enabled at that point unconditionally in the oneshot broadcast mask.
If the affected CPUs were already idle and had their bits set in the
oneshot broadcast mask then this does no harm. But for non idle CPUs
which were not set this corrupts their state.
On their next invocation of tick_broadcast_enable() they observe the bit
set, which indicates that the broadcast for the CPU is already set up.
As a consequence they fail to update the broadcast event even if their
earliest expiring timer is before the actually programmed broadcast
event.
If the programmed broadcast event is far in the future, then this can
cause stalls or trigger the hung task detector.
Avoid this by telling tick_broadcast_setup_oneshot() explicitly whether
this is the initial switch over from periodic to oneshot broadcast which
must take the periodic broadcast mask into account. In the case of
initialization of a replacement device this prevents that the broadcast
oneshot mask is modified.
There is a second problem with broadcast device replacement in this
function. The broadcast device is only armed when the previous state of
the device was periodic.
That is correct for the switch from periodic broadcast mode to oneshot
broadcast mode as the underlying broadcast device could operate in
oneshot state already due to lack of periodic state in hardware. In that
case it is already armed to expire at the next tick.
For the replacement case this is wrong as the device is in shutdown
state. That means that any already pending broadcast event will not be
armed.
This went unnoticed because any CPU which goes idle will observe that
the broadcast device has an expiry time of KTIME_MAX and therefore any
CPUs next timer event will be earlier and cause a reprogramming of the
broadcast device. But that does not guarantee that the events of the
CPUs which were already in idle are delivered on time.
Fix this by arming the newly installed device for an immediate event
which will reevaluate the per CPU expiry times and reprogram the
broadcast device accordingly. This is simpler than caching the last
expiry time in yet another place or saving it before the device exchange
and handing it down to the setup function. Replacement of broadcast
devices is not a frequent operation and usually happens once somewhere
late in the boot process.

swevents in perf_tp_event()
data->sample_flags may be modified in perf_prepare_sample(),
in perf_tp_event(), different swevents use the same on-stack
perf_sample_data, the previous swevent may change sample_flags in
perf_prepare_sample(), as a result, some members of perf_sample_data are
not correctly initialized when next swevent_event preparing sample
(for example data->id, the value varies according to swevent).
A simple scenario triggers this problem is as follows:
# perf record -e sched:sched_switch --switch-output-event sched:sched_switch -a sleep 1
[ perf record: dump data: Woken up 0 times ]
[ perf record: Dump perf.data.2023041209014396 ]

# perf script -i perf.data.2023041209014396
0x11d58 [0x80]: failed to process type: 9 [Bad address]
Solution: Re-initialize perf_sample_data after each event is processed.
Note that data->raw->frag.data may be accessed in perf_tp_event_match().
Therefore, need to init sample_data and then go through swevent hlist to prevent
reference of NULL pointer, reported by [1].
After fix:

inlined callers
Apparently despite it being marked inline, the compiler
may not inline __down_read_common() which makes it difficult
to identify the cause of lock contention, as the blocked
function in traceevents will always be listed as
__down_read_common().
So this patch adds __always_inline annotation to the common
function (as well as the inlined helper callers) to force it to
be inlined so the blocking function will be listed (via Wchan)
in traceevents.

Pull more tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Make buffer_percent read/write.
The buffer_percent file is how users can state how long to block on
the tracing buffer depending on how much is in the buffer. When it
hits the "buffer_percent" it will wake the task waiting on the
buffer. For some reason it was set to read-only.
This was not noticed because testing was done as root without
SELinux, but with SELinux it will prevent even root to write to it
without having CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE.
- The "touched_functions" was added this merge window, but one of the
reasons for adding it was not implemented.
That was to show what functions were not only touched, but had either
a direct trampoline attached to it, or a kprobe or live kernel
patching that can "hijack" the function to run a different function.
The point is to know if there's functions in the kernel that may not
be behaving as the kernel code shows. This can be used for debugging.

If a function had ever had IPMODIFY or DIRECT attached to it, where this
is how live kernel patching and BPF overrides work, mark them and display
an "M" in the enabled_functions and touched_functions files. This can be
used for debugging. If a function had been modified and later there's a bug
in the code related to that function, this can be used to know if the cause
is possibly from a live kernel patch or a BPF program that changed the
behavior of the code.
Also update the documentation on the enabled_functions and
touched_functions output, as it was missing direct callers and CALL_OPS.
And include this new modify attribute.

Patch series "mm/ksm: improve PR_SET_MEMORY_MERGE=0 handling and cleanup
disabling KSM", v2.
(1) Make PR_SET_MEMORY_MERGE=0 unmerge pages like setting MADV_UNMERGEABLE
does, (2) add a selftest for it and (3) factor out disabling of KSM from
s390/gmap code.
This patch (of 3):
Let's unmerge any KSM pages when setting PR_SET_MEMORY_MERGE=0, and clear
the VM_MERGEABLE flag from all VMAs -- just like KSM would. Of course,
only do that if we previously set PR_SET_MEMORY_MERGE=1.

On PREEMPT_RT, rw_semaphore and rwlock_t locks are unfair to writers.
Readers can indefinitely acquire the lock unless the writer fully acquired
the lock, which might never happen if there is always a reader in the
critical section owning the lock.
Mel Gorman reported that since LTP-20220121 the dio_truncate test case
went from having 1 reader to having 16 readers and that number of readers
is sufficient to prevent the down_write ever succeeding while readers
exist. Eventually the test is killed after 30 minutes as a failure.
Mel proposed a timeout to limit how long a writer can be blocked until
the reader is forced into the slowpath.
Thomas argued that there is no added value by providing this timeout. From
a PREEMPT_RT point of view, there are no critical rw_semaphore or rwlock_t
locks left where the reader must be preferred.
Mitigate indefinite writer starvation by forcing the READER into the
slowpath once the WRITER attempts to acquire the lock.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace
Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- User events are finally ready!
After lots of collaboration between various parties, we finally
locked down on a stable interface for user events that can also work
with user space only tracing.
This is implemented by telling the kernel (or user space library, but
that part is user space only and not part of this patch set), where
the variable is that the application uses to know if something is
listening to the trace.
There's also an interface to tell the kernel about these events,
which will show up in the /sys/kernel/tracing/events/user_events/
directory, where it can be enabled.
When it's enabled, the kernel will update the variable, to tell the
application to start writing to the kernel.
See https://lwn.net/Articles/927595/
- Cleaned up the direct trampolines code to simplify arm64 addition of
direct trampolines.
Direct trampolines use the ftrace interface but instead of jumping to
the ftrace trampoline, applications (mostly BPF) can register their
own trampoline for performance reasons.
- Some updates to the fprobe infrastructure. fprobes are more efficient
than kprobes, as it does not need to save all the registers that
kprobes on ftrace do. More work needs to be done before the fprobes
will be exposed as dynamic events.
- More updates to references to the obsolete path of
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing for the new /sys/kernel/tracing path.
- Add a seq_buf_do_printk() helper to seq_bufs, to print a large buffer
line by line instead of all at once.
There are users in production kernels that have a large data dump
that originally used printk() directly, but the data dump was larger
than what printk() allowed as a single print.
Using seq_buf() to do the printing fixes that.
- Add /sys/kernel/tracing/touched_functions that shows all functions
that was every traced by ftrace or a direct trampoline. This is used
for debugging issues where a traced function could have caused a
crash by a bpf program or live patching.
- Add a "fields" option that is similar to "raw" but outputs the fields
of the events. It's easier to read by humans.
- Some minor fixes and clean ups.
