This removes the signal/coredump hacks added for vhost_tasks in:
Commit f9010dbdce91 ("fork, vhost: Use CLONE_THREAD to fix freezer/ps regression")
When that patch was added vhost_tasks did not handle SIGKILL and would
try to ignore/clear the signal and continue on until the device's close
function was called. In the previous patches vhost_tasks and the vhost
drivers were converted to support SIGKILL by cleaning themselves up and
exiting. The hacks are no longer needed so this removes them.

Instead of lingering until the device is closed, this has us handle
SIGKILL by:
1. marking the worker as killed so we no longer try to use it with
new virtqueues and new flush operations.
2. setting the virtqueue to worker mapping so no new works are queued.
3. running all the exiting works.

The reader code in rb_get_reader_page() swaps a new reader page into the
ring buffer by doing cmpxchg on old->list.prev->next to point it to the
new page. Following that, if the operation is successful,
old->list.next->prev gets updated too. This means the underlying
doubly-linked list is temporarily inconsistent, page->prev->next or
page->next->prev might not be equal back to page for some page in the
ring buffer.
The resize operation in ring_buffer_resize() can be invoked in parallel.
It calls rb_check_pages() which can detect the described inconsistency
and stop further tracing:

Note that ring_buffer_resize() calls rb_check_pages() only if the parent
trace_buffer has recording disabled. Recent commit d78ab792705c
("tracing: Stop current tracer when resizing buffer") causes that it is
now always the case which makes it more likely to experience this issue.
The window to hit this race is nonetheless very small. To help
reproducing it, one can add a delay loop in rb_get_reader_page():
ret = rb_head_page_replace(reader, cpu_buffer->reader_page);
if (!ret)
goto spin;
for (unsigned i = 0; i < 1U << 26; i++) /* inserted delay loop */
__asm__ __volatile__ ("" : : : "memory");
rb_list_head(reader->list.next)->prev = &cpu_buffer->reader_page->list;
.. and then run the following commands on the target system:
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/enable
while true; do
echo 16 > /sys/kernel/tracing/buffer_size_kb; sleep 0.1
echo 8 > /sys/kernel/tracing/buffer_size_kb; sleep 0.1
done &
while true; do
for i in /sys/kernel/tracing/per_cpu/*; do
timeout 0.1 cat $i/trace_pipe; sleep 0.2
done
done
To fix the problem, make sure ring_buffer_resize() doesn't invoke
rb_check_pages() concurrently with a reader operating on the same
ring_buffer_per_cpu by taking its cpu_buffer->reader_lock.

Adjust the following code documentation:
* Kernel-doc comments for ring_buffer_read_prepare() and
ring_buffer_read_finish() mention that recording to the ring buffer is
disabled when the read is active. Remove mention of this restriction
because it was already lifted in commit 1039221cc278 ("ring-buffer: Do
not disable recording when there is an iterator").
* Function ring_buffer_read_finish() performs a self-check of the
ring-buffer by locking cpu_buffer->reader_lock and then calling
rb_check_pages(). The preceding comment explains that the lock is
needed because rb_check_pages() clears the HEAD flag required by
readers which might be running in parallel. Remove this explanation
because commit 8843e06f67b1 ("ring-buffer: Handle race between
rb_move_tail and rb_check_pages") simplified the function so it no
longer resets the mentioned flag. Nonetheless, the lock is still
needed because a reader swapping a page into the ring buffer can make
the underlying doubly-linked list temporarily inconsistent.
This is a non-functional change.

Commit 1a7d0890dd4a ("kprobe/ftrace: bail out if ftrace was killed")
introduced a bad K&R function definition, which we haven't accepted in a
long long time.
Gcc seems to let it slide, but clang notices with the appropriate error:
kernel/kprobes.c:1140:24: error: a function declaration without a prototype is deprecated in all >
1140 | void kprobe_ftrace_kill()
| ^
| void
but this commit was apparently never in linux-next before it was sent
upstream, so it didn't get the appropriate build test coverage.

Pull tracing user-event updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Minor update to the user_events interface
The ABI of creating a user event states that the fields are separated
by semicolons, and spaces should be ignored.
But the parsing expected at least one space to be there (which was
incorrect). Fix the reading of the string to handle fields separated
by semicolons but no space between them.
This does extend the API sightly as now "field;field" will now be
parsed and not cause an error. But it should not cause any regressions
as no logic should expect it to fail.
Note, that the logic that parses the event fields to create the
trace_event works with no spaces after the semi-colon. It is
the logic that tests against existing events that is inconsistent.
This causes registering an event without using spaces to succeed
if it doesn't exist, but makes the same call that tries to register
to the same event, but doesn't use spaces, fail.

Pull tracing ring buffer updates from Steven Rostedt:
"Add ring_buffer memory mappings.
The tracing ring buffer was created based on being mostly used with
the splice system call. It is broken up into page ordered sub-buffers
and the reader swaps a new sub-buffer with an existing sub-buffer
that's part of the write buffer. It then has total access to the
swapped out sub-buffer and can do copyless movements of the memory
into other mediums (file system, network, etc).
The buffer is great for passing around the ring buffer contents in the
kernel, but is not so good for when the consumer is the user space
task itself.
A new interface is added that allows user space to memory map the ring
buffer. It will get all the write sub-buffers as well as reader
sub-buffer (that is not written to). It can send an ioctl to change
which sub-buffer is the new reader sub-buffer.
The ring buffer is read only to user space. It only needs to call the
ioctl when it is finished with a sub-buffer and needs a new sub-buffer
that the writer will not write over.
A self test program was also created for testing and can be used as an
example for the interface to user space. The libtracefs (external to
the kernel) also has code that interacts with this, although it is
disabled until the interface is in a official release. It can be
enabled by compiling the library with a special flag. This was used
for testing applications that perform better with the buffer being
mapped.
Memory mapped buffers have limitations. The main one is that it can
not be used with the snapshot logic. If the buffer is mapped,
snapshots will be disabled. If any logic is set to trigger snapshots
on a buffer, that buffer will not be allowed to be mapped"

Pull sysctl updates from Joel Granados:
- Remove sentinel elements from ctl_table structs in kernel/*
Removing sentinels in ctl_table arrays reduces the build time size
and runtime memory consumed by ~64 bytes per array. Removals for
net/, io_uring/, mm/, ipc/ and security/ are set to go into mainline
through their respective subsystems making the next release the most
likely place where the final series that removes the check for
proc_name == NULL will land.
This adds to removals already in arch/, drivers/ and fs/.
- Adjust ctl_table definitions and references to allow constification
- Remove unused ctl_table function arguments
- Move non-const elements from ctl_table to ctl_table_header
- Make ctl_table pointers const in ctl_table_root structure
Making the static ctl_table structs const will increase safety by
keeping the pointers to proc_handler functions in .rodata. Though no
ctl_tables where made const in this PR, the ground work for making
that possible has started with these changes sent by Thomas
Weißschuh.

cpu_max_write()
In the cgroup v2 CPU subsystem, assuming we have a
cgroup named 'test', and we set cpu.max and cpu.max.burst:
# echo 1000000 > /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cpu.max
# echo 1000000 > /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cpu.max.burst
then we check cpu.max and cpu.max.burst:
# cat /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cpu.max
1000000 100000
# cat /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cpu.max.burst
1000000
Next we set cpu.max again and check cpu.max and
cpu.max.burst:
# echo 2000000 > /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cpu.max
# cat /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cpu.max
2000000 100000
# cat /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cpu.max.burst
1000
... we find that the cpu.max.burst value changed unexpectedly.
In cpu_max_write(), the unit of the burst value returned
by tg_get_cfs_burst() is microseconds, while in cpu_max_write(),
the burst unit used for calculation should be nanoseconds,
which leads to the bug.
To fix it, get the burst value directly from tg->cfs_bandwidth.burst.

Change se->load.weight to se_weight(se) in the calculation for the
initial util_avg to avoid unnecessarily inflating the util_avg by 1024
times.
The reason is that se->load.weight has the unit/scale as the scaled-up
load, while cfs_rg->avg.load_avg has the unit/scale as the true task
weight (as mapped directly from the task's nice/priority value). With
CONFIG_32BIT, the scaled-up load is equal to the true task weight. With
CONFIG_64BIT, the scaled-up load is 1024 times the true task weight.
Thus, the current code may inflate the util_avg by 1024 times. The
follow-up capping will not allow the util_avg value to go wild. But the
calculation should have the correct logi |
