License cleanup: add SPDX license identifier to uapi header files with no license Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default are files without license information under the default license of the kernel, which is GPLV2. Marking them GPLV2 would exclude them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception which is in the kernels COPYING file: NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work". otherwise syscall usage would not be possible. Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDX license identifier. The chosen identifier is 'GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note' which is the officially assigned identifier for the Linux syscall exception. SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the methodology of how this patch was researched.

fork: add clone3 This adds the clone3 system call. As mentioned several times already (cf. [7], [8]) here's the promised patchset for clone3(). We recently merged the CLONE_PIDFD patchset (cf. [1]). It took the last free flag from clone(). Independent of the CLONE_PIDFD patchset a time namespace has been discussed at Linux Plumber Conference last year and has been sent out and reviewed (cf. [5]). It is expected that it will go upstream in the not too distant future. However, it relies on the addition of the CLONE_NEWTIME flag to clone(). The only other good candidate - CLONE_DETACHED - is currently not recyclable as we have identified at least two large or widely used codebases that currently pass this flag (cf. [2], [3], and [4]). Given that CLONE_PIDFD grabbed the last clone() flag the time namespace is effectively blocked. clone3() has the advantage that it will unblock this patchset again. In general, clone3() is extensible and allows for the implementation of new features. The idea is to keep clone3() very simple and close to the original clone(), specifically, to keep on supporting old clone()-based workloads. We know there have been various creative proposals how a new process creation syscall or even api is supposed to look like. Some people even going so far as to argue that the traditional fork()+exec() split should be abandoned in favor of an in-kernel version of spawn(). Independent of whether or not we personally think spawn() is a good idea this patchset has and does not want to have anything to do with this. One stance we take is that there's no real good alternative to clone()+exec() and we need and want to support this model going forward; independent of spawn(). The following requirements guided clone3(): - bump the number of available flags - move arguments that are currently passed as separate arguments in clone() into a dedicated struct clone_args - choose a struct layout that is easy to handle on 32 and on 64 bit - choose a struct layout that is extensible - give new flags that currently need to abuse another flag's dedicated return argument in clone() their own dedicated return argument (e.g. CLONE_PIDFD) - use a separate kernel internal struct kernel_clone_args that is properly typed according to current kernel conventions in fork.c and is different from the uapi struct clone_args - port _do_fork() to use kernel_clone_args so that all process creation syscalls such as fork(), vfork(), clone(), and clone3() behave identical (Arnd suggested, that we can probably also port do_fork() itself in a separate patchset.) - ease of transition for userspace from clone() to clone3() This very much means that we do *not* remove functionality that userspace currently relies on as the latter is a good way of creating a syscall that won't be adopted. - do not try to be clever or complex: keep clone3() as dumb as possible In accordance with Linus suggestions (cf. [11]), clone3() has the following signature: /* uapi */ struct clone_args { __aligned_u64 flags; __aligned_u64 pidfd; __aligned_u64 child_tid; __aligned_u64 parent_tid; __aligned_u64 exit_signal; __aligned_u64 stack; __aligned_u64 stack_size; __aligned_u64 tls; }; /* kernel internal */ struct kernel_clone_args { u64 flags; int __user *pidfd; int __user *child_tid; int __user *parent_tid; int exit_signal; unsigned long stack; unsigned long stack_size; unsigned long tls; }; long sys_clone3(struct clone_args __user *uargs, size_t size) clone3() cleanly supports all of the supported flags from clone() and thus all legacy workloads. The advantage of sticking close to the old clone() is the low cost for userspace to switch to this new api. Quite a lot of userspace apis (e.g. pthreads) are based on the clone() syscall. With the new clone3() syscall supporting all of the old workloads and opening up the ability to add new features should make switching to it for userspace more appealing. In essence, glibc can just write a simple wrapper to switch from clone() to clone3(). There has been some interest in this patchset already. We have received a patch from the CRIU corner for clone3() that would set the PID/TID of a restored process without /proc/sys/kernel/ns_last_pid to eliminate a race. /* User visible differences to legacy clone() */ - CLONE_DETACHED will cause EINVAL with clone3() - CSIGNAL is deprecated It is superseeded by a dedicated "exit_signal" argument in struct clone_args freeing up space for additional flags. This is based on a suggestion from Andrei and Linus (cf. [9] and [10]) /* References */ [1]: b3e5838252665ee4cfa76b82bdf1198dca81e5be [2]: https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/security/sandbox/linux/SandboxFilter.cpp#343 [3]: https://git.musl-libc.org/cgit/musl/tree/src/thread/pthread_create.c#n233 [4]: https://sources.debian.org/src/blcr/0.8.5-2.3/cr_module/cr_dump_self.c/?hl=740#L740 [5]: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20190425161416.26600-1-dima@arista.com/ [6]: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20190425161416.26600-2-dima@arista.com/ [7]: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/CAHrFyr5HxpGXA2YrKza-oB-GGwJCqwPfyhD-Y5wbktWZdt0sGQ@mail.gmail.com/ [8]: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20190524102756.qjsjxukuq2f4t6bo@brauner.io/ [9]: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20190529222414.GA6492@gmail.com/ [10]: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/CAHk-=whQP-Ykxi=zSYaV9iXsHsENa+2fdj-zYKwyeyed63Lsfw@mail.gmail.com/ [11]: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/CAHk-=wieuV4hGwznPsX-8E0G2FKhx3NjZ9X3dTKh5zKd+iqOBw@mail.gmail.com/ Suggested-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Christian Brauner <christian@brauner.io> Acked-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Acked-by: Serge Hallyn <serge@hallyn.com> Cc: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Cc: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@virtuozzo.com> Cc: Jann Horn <jannh@google.com> Cc: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Cc: Adrian Reber <adrian@lisas.de> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Andrei Vagin <avagin@gmail.com> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Florian Weimer <fweimer@redhat.com> Cc: linux-api@vger.kernel.org

clone: add CLONE_PIDFD This patchset makes it possible to retrieve pid file descriptors at process creation time by introducing the new flag CLONE_PIDFD to the clone() system call. Linus originally suggested to implement this as a new flag to clone() instead of making it a separate system call. As spotted by Linus, there is exactly one bit for clone() left. CLONE_PIDFD creates file descriptors based on the anonymous inode implementation in the kernel that will also be used to implement the new mount api. They serve as a simple opaque handle on pids. Logically, this makes it possible to interpret a pidfd differently, narrowing or widening the scope of various operations (e.g. signal sending). Thus, a pidfd cannot just refer to a tgid, but also a tid, or in theory - given appropriate flag arguments in relevant syscalls - a process group or session. A pidfd does not represent a privilege. This does not imply it cannot ever be that way but for now this is not the case. A pidfd comes with additional information in fdinfo if the kernel supports procfs. The fdinfo file contains the pid of the process in the callers pid namespace in the same format as the procfs status file, i.e. "Pid:\t%d". As suggested by Oleg, with CLONE_PIDFD the pidfd is returned in the parent_tidptr argument of clone. This has the advantage that we can give back the associated pid and the pidfd at the same time. To remove worries about missing metadata access this patchset comes with a sample program that illustrates how a combination of CLONE_PIDFD, and pidfd_send_signal() can be used to gain race-free access to process metadata through /proc/<pid>. The sample program can easily be translated into a helper that would be suitable for inclusion in libc so that users don't have to worry about writing it themselves.

sched/deadline: Add SCHED_DEADLINE structures & implementation Introduces the data structures, constants and symbols needed for SCHED_DEADLINE implementation. Core data structure of SCHED_DEADLINE are defined, along with their initializers. Hooks for checking if a task belong to the new policy are also added where they are needed. Adds a scheduling class, in sched/dl.c and a new policy called SCHED_DEADLINE. It is an implementation of the Earliest Deadline First (EDF) scheduling algorithm, augmented with a mechanism (called Constant Bandwidth Server, CBS) that makes it possible to isolate the behaviour of tasks between each other. The typical -deadline task will be made up of a computation phase (instance) which is activated on a periodic or sporadic fashion. The expected (maximum) duration of such computation is called the task's runtime; the time interval by which each instance need to be completed is called the task's relative deadline. The task's absolute deadline is dynamically calculated as the time instant a task (better, an instance) activates plus the relative deadline. The EDF algorithms selects the task with the smallest absolute deadline as the one to be executed first, while the CBS ensures each task to run for at most its runtime every (relative) deadline length time interval, avoiding any interference between different tasks (bandwidth isolation). Thanks to this feature, also tasks that do not strictly comply with the computational model sketched above can effectively use the new policy. To summarize, this patch: - introduces the data structures, constants and symbols needed; - implements the core logic of the scheduling algorithm in the new scheduling class file; - provides all the glue code between the new scheduling class and the core scheduler and refines the interactions between sched/dl and the other existing scheduling classes.

sched/core: Allow sched_setattr() to use the current policy The sched_setattr() syscall mandates that a policy is always specified. This requires to always know which policy a task will have when attributes are configured and this makes it impossible to add more generic task attributes valid across different scheduling policies. Reading the policy before setting generic tasks attributes is racy since we cannot be sure it is not changed concurrently. Introduce the required support to change generic task attributes without affecting the current task policy. This is done by adding an attribute flag (SCHED_FLAG_KEEP_POLICY) to enforce the usage of the current policy. Add support for the SETPARAM_POLICY policy, which is already used by the sched_setparam() POSIX syscall, to the sched_setattr() non-POSIX syscall.

sched/uclamp: Extend sched_setattr() to support utilization clamping The SCHED_DEADLINE scheduling class provides an advanced and formal model to define tasks requirements that can translate into proper decisions for both task placements and frequencies selections. Other classes have a more simplified model based on the POSIX concept of priorities. Such a simple priority based model however does not allow to exploit most advanced features of the Linux scheduler like, for example, driving frequencies selection via the schedutil cpufreq governor. However, also for non SCHED_DEADLINE tasks, it's still interesting to define tasks properties to support scheduler decisions. Utilization clamping exposes to user-space a new set of per-task attributes the scheduler can use as hints about the expected/required utilization for a task. This allows to implement a "proactive" per-task frequency control policy, a more advanced policy than the current one based just on "passive" measured task utilization. For example, it's possible to boost interactive tasks (e.g. to get better performance) or cap background tasks (e.g. to be more energy/thermal efficient). Introduce a new API to set utilization clamping values for a specified task by extending sched_setattr(), a syscall which already allows to define task specific properties for different scheduling classes. A new pair of attributes allows to specify a minimum and maximum utilization the scheduler can consider for a task. Do that by validating the required clamp values before and then applying the required changes using _the_ same pattern already in use for __setscheduler(). This ensures that the task is re-enqueued with the new clamp values.

Add support for the SETPARAM_POLICY policy, which is already used by the sched_setparam() POSIX syscall, to the sched_setattr() non-POSIX syscall.

SCHED_FLAG_DL_OVERRUN | \
sched/uclamp: Extend sched_setattr() to support utilization clamping The SCHED_DEADLINE scheduling class provides an advanced and formal model to define tasks requirements that can translate into proper decisions for both task placements and frequencies selections. Other classes have a more simplified model based on the POSIX concept of priorities. Such a simple priority based model however does not allow to exploit most advanced features of the Linux scheduler like, for example, driving frequencies selection via the schedutil cpufreq governor. However, also for non SCHED_DEADLINE tasks, it's still interesting to define tasks properties to support scheduler decisions. Utilization clamping exposes to user-space a new set of per-task attributes the scheduler can use as hints about the expected/required utilization for a task. This allows to implement a "proactive" per-task frequency control policy, a more advanced policy than the current one based just on "passive" measured task utilization. For example, it's possible to boost interactive tasks (e.g. to get better performance) or cap background tasks (e.g. to be more energy/thermal efficient). Introduce a new API to set utilization clamping values for a specified task by extending sched_setattr(), a syscall which already allows to define task specific properties for different scheduling classes. A new pair of attributes allows to specify a minimum and maximum utilization the scheduler can consider for a task. Do that by validating the required clamp values before and then applying the required changes using _the_ same pattern already in use for __setscheduler(). This ensures that the task is re-enqueued with the new clamp values.
