cpuidle: Return nohz hint from cpuidle_select() Add a new pointer argument to cpuidle_select() and to the ->select cpuidle governor callback to allow a boolean value indicating whether or not the tick should be stopped before entering the selected state to be returned from there. Make the ladder governor ignore that pointer (to preserve its current behavior) and make the menu governor return 'false" through it if: (1) the idle exit latency is constrained at 0, or (2) the selected state is a polling one, or (3) the expected idle period duration is within the tick period range. In addition to that, the correction factor computations in the menu governor need to take the possibility that the tick may not be stopped into account to avoid artificially small correction factor values. To that end, add a mechanism to record tick wakeups, as suggested by Peter Zijlstra, and use it to modify the menu_update() behavior when tick wakeup occurs. Namely, if the CPU is woken up by the tick and the return value of tick_nohz_get_sleep_length() is not within the tick boundary, the predicted idle duration is likely too short, so make menu_update() try to compensate for that by updating the governor statistics as though the CPU was idle for a long time. Since the value returned through the new argument pointer of cpuidle_select() is not used by its caller yet, this change by itself is not expected to alter the functionality of the code.

sched: idle: Select idle state before stopping the tick In order to address the issue with short idle duration predictions by the idle governor after the scheduler tick has been stopped, reorder the code in cpuidle_idle_call() so that the governor idle state selection runs before tick_nohz_idle_go_idle() and use the "nohz" hint returned by cpuidle_select() to decide whether or not to stop the tick. This isn't straightforward, because menu_select() invokes tick_nohz_get_sleep_length() to get the time to the next timer event and the number returned by the latter comes from __tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick(). Fortunately, however, it is possible to compute that number without actually stopping the tick and with the help of the existing code. Namely, tick_nohz_get_sleep_length() can be made call tick_nohz_next_event(), introduced earlier, to get the time to the next non-highres timer event. If that happens, tick_nohz_next_event() need not be called by __tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick() again. If it turns out that the scheduler tick cannot be stopped going forward or the next timer event is too close for the tick to be stopped, tick_nohz_get_sleep_length() can simply return the time to the next event currently programmed into the corresponding clock event device. In addition to knowing the return value of tick_nohz_next_event(), however, tick_nohz_get_sleep_length() needs to know the time to the next highres timer event, but with the scheduler tick timer excluded, which can be computed with the help of hrtimer_get_next_event(). That minimum of that number and the tick_nohz_next_event() return value is the total time to the next timer event with the assumption that the tick will be stopped. It can be returned to the idle governor which can use it for predicting idle duration (under the assumption that the tick will be stopped) and deciding whether or not it makes sense to stop the tick before putting the CPU into the selected idle state. With the above, the sleep_length field in struct tick_sched is not necessary any more, so drop it.

sched/core: Call __schedule() from do_idle() without enabling preemption I finally got around to creating trampolines for dynamically allocated ftrace_ops with using synchronize_rcu_tasks(). For users of the ftrace function hook callbacks, like perf, that allocate the ftrace_ops descriptor via kmalloc() and friends, ftrace was not able to optimize the functions being traced to use a trampoline because they would also need to be allocated dynamically. The problem is that they cannot be freed when CONFIG_PREEMPT is set, as there's no way to tell if a task was preempted on the trampoline. That was before Paul McKenney implemented synchronize_rcu_tasks() that would make sure all tasks (except idle) have scheduled out or have entered user space. While testing this, I triggered this bug: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffffffa0230077 ... RIP: 0010:0xffffffffa0230077 ... Call Trace: schedule+0x5/0xe0 schedule_preempt_disabled+0x18/0x30 do_idle+0x172/0x220 What happened was that the idle task was preempted on the trampoline. As synchronize_rcu_tasks() ignores the idle thread, there's nothing that lets ftrace know that the idle task was preempted on a trampoline. The idle task shouldn't need to ever enable preemption. The idle task is simply a loop that calls schedule or places the cpu into idle mode. In fact, having preemption enabled is inefficient, because it can happen when idle is just about to call schedule anyway, which would cause schedule to be called twice. Once for when the interrupt came in and was returning back to normal context, and then again in the normal path that the idle loop is running in, which would be pointless, as it had already scheduled. The only reason schedule_preempt_disable() enables preemption is to be able to call sched_submit_work(), which requires preemption enabled. As this is a nop when the task is in the RUNNING state, and idle is always in the running state, there's no reason that idle needs to enable preemption. But that means it cannot use schedule_preempt_disable() as other callers of that function require calling sched_submit_work(). Adding a new function local to kernel/sched/ that allows idle to call the scheduler without enabling preemption, fixes the synchronize_rcu_tasks() issue, as well as removes the pointless spurious schedule calls caused by interrupts happening in the brief window where preemption is enabled just before it calls schedule.

livepatch: change to a per-task consistency model Change livepatch to use a basic per-task consistency model. This is the foundation which will eventually enable us to patch those ~10% of security patches which change function or data semantics. This is the biggest remaining piece needed to make livepatch more generally useful. This code stems from the design proposal made by Vojtech [1] in November 2014. It's a hybrid of kGraft and kpatch: it uses kGraft's per-task consistency and syscall barrier switching combined with kpatch's stack trace switching. There are also a number of fallback options which make it quite flexible. Patches are applied on a per-task basis, when the task is deemed safe to switch over. When a patch is enabled, livepatch enters into a transition state where tasks are converging to the patched state. Usually this transition state can complete in a few seconds. The same sequence occurs when a patch is disabled, except the tasks converge from the patched state to the unpatched state. An interrupt handler inherits the patched state of the task it interrupts. The same is true for forked tasks: the child inherits the patched state of the parent. Livepatch uses several complementary approaches to determine when it's safe to patch tasks: 1. The first and most effective approach is stack checking of sleeping tasks. If no affected functions are on the stack of a given task, the task is patched. In most cases this will patch most or all of the tasks on the first try. Otherwise it'll keep trying periodically. This option is only available if the architecture has reliable stacks (HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE). 2. The second approach, if needed, is kernel exit switching. A task is switched when it returns to user space from a system call, a user space IRQ, or a signal. It's useful in the following cases: a) Patching I/O-bound user tasks which are sleeping on an affected function. In this case you have to send SIGSTOP and SIGCONT to force it to exit the kernel and be patched. b) Patching CPU-bound user tasks. If the task is highly CPU-bound then it will get patched the next time it gets interrupted by an IRQ. c) In the future it could be useful for applying patches for architectures which don't yet have HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE. In this case you would have to signal most of the tasks on the system. However this isn't supported yet because there's currently no way to patch kthreads without HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE. 3. For idle "swapper" tasks, since they don't ever exit the kernel, they instead have a klp_update_patch_state() call in the idle loop which allows them to be patched before the CPU enters the idle state. (Note there's not yet such an approach for kthreads.) All the above approaches may be skipped by setting the 'immediate' flag in the 'klp_patch' struct, which will disable per-task consistency and patch all tasks immediately. This can be useful if the patch doesn't change any function or data semantics. Note that, even with this flag set, it's possible that some tasks may still be running with an old version of the function, until that function returns. There's also an 'immediate' flag in the 'klp_func' struct which allows you to specify that certain functions in the patch can be applied without per-task consistency. This might be useful if you want to patch a common function like schedule(), and the function change doesn't need consistency but the rest of the patch does. For architectures which don't have HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE, the user must set patch->immediate which causes all tasks to be patched immediately. This option should be used with care, only when the patch doesn't change any function or data semantics. In the future, architectures which don't have HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE may be allowed to use per-task consistency if we can come up with another way to patch kthreads. The /sys/kernel/livepatch/<patch>/transition file shows whether a patch is in transition. Only a single patch (the topmost patch on the stack) can be in transition at a given time. A patch can remain in transition indefinitely, if any of the tasks are stuck in the initial patch state. A transition can be reversed and effectively canceled by writing the opposite value to the /sys/kernel/livepatch/<patch>/enabled file while the transition is in progress. Then all the tasks will attempt to converge back to the original patch state.
