| * kernel/reboot.c: add orderly_reboot for graceful rebootJoel Stanley2015-04-151-5/+48
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The kernel has orderly_poweroff which allows the kernel to initiate a graceful shutdown of userspace, by running /sbin/poweroff. This adds orderly_reboot that will cause userspace to shut itself down by calling /sbin/reboot. This will be used for shutdown initiated by a system controller on platforms that do not use ACPI. orderly_reboot() should be used when the system wants to allow userspace to gracefully shut itself down. For cases where the system may imminently catch on fire, the existing emergency_restart() provides an immediate reboot without involving userspace.

| * kernel: conditionally support non-root users, groups and capabilitiesIulia Manda2015-04-156-20/+41
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are a lot of embedded systems that run most or all of their functionality in init, running as root:root. For these systems, supporting multiple users is not necessary. This patch adds a new symbol, CONFIG_MULTIUSER, that makes support for non-root users, non-root groups, and capabilities optional. It is enabled under CONFIG_EXPERT menu. When this symbol is not defined, UID and GID are zero in any possible case and processes always have all capabilities. The following syscalls are compiled out: setuid, setregid, setgid, setreuid, setresuid, getresuid, setresgid, getresgid, setgroups, getgroups, setfsuid, setfsgid, capget, capset. Also, groups.c is compiled out completely. In kernel/capability.c, capable function was moved in order to avoid adding two ifdef blocks. This change saves about 25 KB on a defconfig build. The most minimal kernels have total text sizes in the high hundreds of kB rather than low MB. (The 25k goes down a bit with allnoconfig, but not that much. The kernel was booted in Qemu. All the common functionalities work. Adding users/groups is not possible, failing with -ENOSYS.

| * mm: allow compaction of unevictable pagesEric B Munson2015-04-151-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, pages which are marked as unevictable are protected from compaction, but not from other types of migration. The POSIX real time extension explicitly states that mlock() will prevent a major page fault, but the spirit of this is that mlock() should give a process the ability to control sources of latency, including minor page faults. However, the mlock manpage only explicitly says that a locked page will not be written to swap and this can cause some confusion. The compaction code today does not give a developer who wants to avoid swap but wants to have large contiguous areas available any method to achieve this state. This patch introduces a sysctl for controlling compaction behavior with respect to the unevictable lru. Users who demand no page faults after a page is present can set compact_unevictable_allowed to 0 and users who need the large contiguous areas can enable compaction on locked memory by leaving the default value of 1. To illustrate this problem I wrote a quick test program that mmaps a large number of 1MB files filled with random data. These maps are created locked and read only. Then every other mmap is unmapped and I attempt to allocate huge pages to the static huge page pool. When the compact_unevictable_allowed sysctl is 0, I cannot allocate hugepages after fragmenting memory. When the value is set to 1, allocations succeed.

| * memcg: zap mem_cgroup_lookup()Vladimir Davydov2015-04-151-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | mem_cgroup_lookup() is a wrapper around mem_cgroup_from_id(), which checks that id != 0 before issuing the function call. Today, there is no point in this additional check apart from optimization, because there is no css with id <= 0, so that css_from_id, called by mem_cgroup_from_id, will return NULL for any id <= 0. Since mem_cgroup_from_id is only called from mem_cgroup_lookup, let us zap mem_cgroup_lookup, substituting calls to it with mem_cgroup_from_id and moving the check if id > 0 to css_from_id.

From Floria Fainelli. 3) Allow 'ip address' commands to initiate multicast group join/leave, from Madhu Challa. 4) Many ipv4 FIB lookup optimizations from Alexander Duyck. 5) Support EBPF in cls_bpf classifier and act_bpf action, from Daniel Borkmann. 6) Remove the ugly compat support in ARP for ugly layers like ax25, rose, etc. And use this to clean up the neigh layer, then use it to implement MPLS support. All from Eric Biederman. 7) Support L3 forwarding offloading in switches, from Scott Feldman. 8) Collapse the LOCAL and MAIN ipv4 FIB tables when possible, to speed up route lookups even further. From Alexander Duyck. 9) Many improvements and bug fixes to the rhashtable implementation, from Herbert Xu and Thomas Graf. In particular, in the case where an rhashtable user bulk adds a large number of items into an empty table, we expand the table much more sanely. 10) Don't make the tcp_metrics hash table per-namespace, from Eric Biederman. 11) Extend EBPF to access SKB fields, from Alexei Starovoitov. 12) Split out new connection request sockets so that they can be established in the main hash table. Much less false sharing since hash lookups go direct to the request sockets instead of having to go first to the listener then to the request socks hashed underneath. From Eric Dumazet. 13) Add async I/O support for crytpo AF_ALG sockets, from Tadeusz Struk. 14) Support stable privacy address generation for RFC7217 in IPV6. From Hannes Frederic Sowa. 15) Hash network namespace into IP frag IDs, also from Hannes Frederic Sowa. 16) Convert PTP get/set methods to use 64-bit time, from Richard Cochran. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next: (1816 commits) fm10k: Bump driver version to 0.15.2 fm10k: corrected VF multicast update fm10k: mbx_update_max_size does not drop all oversized messages fm10k: reset head instead of calling update_max_size fm10k: renamed mbx_tx_dropped to mbx_tx_oversized fm10k: update xcast mode before synchronizing multicast addresses fm10k: start service timer on probe fm10k: fix function header comment fm10k: comment next_vf_mbx flow fm10k: don't handle mailbox events in iov_event path and always process mailbox fm10k: use separate workqueue for fm10k driver fm10k: Set PF queues to unlimited bandwidth during virtualization fm10k: expose tx_timeout_count as an ethtool stat fm10k: only increment tx_timeout_count in Tx hang path fm10k: remove extraneous "Reset interface" message fm10k: separate PF only stats so that VF does not display them fm10k: use hw->mac.max_queues for stats fm10k: only show actual queues, not the maximum in hardware fm10k: allow creation of VLAN on default vid fm10k: fix unused warnings ...

This is bascially analogous to 96be4325f443 ("ebpf: add sched_cls_type and map it to sk_filter's verifier ops"). BPF_PROG_TYPE_SCHED_CLS and BPF_PROG_TYPE_SCHED_ACT need to be separate since both will have a different set of functionality in future (classifier vs action), thus we won't run into ABI troubles when the point in time comes to diverge functionality from the classifier. The future plan for act_bpf would be that it will be able to write into skb->data and alter selected fields mirrored in struct __sk_buff. For an initial support, it's sufficient to map it to sk_filter_ops.

This can worst case lead to unintented stack memory leakage in future helper functions if they are not carefully designed, or unintended application behaviour in case the application developer was not careful enough to match a correct helper function signature in the API. The underlying issue is that ARG_ANYTHING should actually be split into two different semantics: 1) ARG_DONTCARE for function arguments that the helper function does not care about (in other words: the default for unused function arguments), and 2) ARG_ANYTHING that is an argument actually being used by a helper function and *guaranteed* to be an initialized register. The current risk is low: ARG_ANYTHING is only used for the 'flags' argument (r4) in bpf_map_update_elem() that internally does strict checking.

This allows for user space to implement own custom, 'safe' C like classifiers (or whatever other frontend language LLVM et al may provide in future), that can then be compiled with the LLVM eBPF backend to an eBPF elf file. The result of this can be loaded into the kernel via iproute2's tc. In the kernel, they can be JITed on major archs and thus run in native performance. Simple, minimal toy example to demonstrate the workflow: #include <linux/ip.h> #include <linux/if_ether.h> #include <linux/bpf.h> #include "tc_bpf_api.h" __section("classify") int cls_main(struct sk_buff *skb) { return (0x800 << 16) | load_byte(skb, ETH_HLEN + __builtin_offsetof(struct iphdr, tos)); } char __license[] __section("license") = "GPL"; The classifier can then be compiled into eBPF opcodes and loaded via tc, for example: clang -O2 -emit-llvm -c cls.c -o - | llc -march=bpf -filetype=obj -o cls.o tc filter add dev em1 parent 1: bpf cls.o [...] As it has been demonstrated, the scope can even reach up to a fully fledged flow dissector (similarly as in samples/bpf/sockex2_kern.c). For tc, maps are allowed to be used, but from kernel context only, in other words, eBPF code can keep state across filter invocations. In future, we perhaps may reattach from a different application to those maps e.g., to read out collected statistics/state. Similarly as in socket filters, we may extend functionality for eBPF classifiers over time depending on the use cases. For that purpose, cls_bpf programs are using BPF_PROG_TYPE_SCHED_CLS program type, so we can allow additional functions/accessors (e.g. an ABI compatible offset translation to skb fields/metadata). For an initial cls_bpf support, we allow the same set of helper functions as eBPF socket filters, but we could diverge at some point in time w/o problem. I was wondering whether cls_bpf and act_bpf could share C programs, I can imagine that at some point, we introduce i) further common handlers for both (or even beyond their scope), and/or if truly needed ii) some restricted function space for each of them. Both can be abstracted easily through struct bpf_verifier_ops in future. The context of cls_bpf versus act_bpf is slightly different though: a cls_bpf program will return a specific classid whereas act_bpf a drop/non-drop return code, latter may also in future mangle skbs. That said, we can surely have a "classify" and "action" section in a single object file, or considered mentioned constraint add a possibility of a shared section. The workflow for getting native eBPF running from tc [1] is as follows: for f_bpf, I've added a slightly modified ELF parser code from Alexei's kernel sample, which reads out the LLVM compiled object, sets up maps (and dynamically fixes up map fds) if any, and loads the eBPF instructions all centrally through the bpf syscall. The resulting fd from the loaded program itself is being passed down to cls_bpf, which looks up struct bpf_prog from the fd store, and holds reference, so that it stays available also after tc program lifetime. On tc filter destruction, it will then drop its reference. Moreover, I've also added the optional possibility to annotate an eBPF filter with a name (e.g. path to object file, or something else if preferred) so that when tc dumps currently installed filters, some more context can be given to an admin for a given instance (as opposed to just the file descriptor number). Last but not least, bpf_prog_get() and bpf_prog_put() needed to be exported, so that eBPF can be used from cls_bpf built as a module. Thanks to 60a3b2253c41 ("net: bpf: make eBPF interpreter images read-only") I think this is of no concern since anything wanting to alter eBPF opcode after verification stage would crash the kernel.

The reason for this is, that out-of-tree modules can go crazy and define and register any verfifier ops they want, doing all sorts of crap, even bypassing available GPLed eBPF helper functions. We don't want to offer such a shiny playground, of course, but keep strict control to ourselves inside the core kernel. This also encourages us to design eBPF user helpers carefully and generically, so they can be shared among various subsystems using eBPF. For the eBPF traffic classifier (cls_bpf), it's a good start to share the same helper facilities as we currently do in eBPF for socket filters. That way, we have BPF_PROG_TYPE_SCHED_CLS look like it's own type, thus one day if there's a good reason to diverge the set of helper functions from the set available to socket filters, we keep ABI compatibility. In future, we could place all bpf_prog_type_list at a central place, perhaps.

This mode is useful for (among other things) observing the state of the system just before entering a sleep mode, for debugging or analysis purposes. However, a constant 5 second wait is not sufficient for some sorts of analysis; for example, on an SoC, one might want to use external tools to probe the power states of various on-chip controllers or clocks. This patch turns this 5 second delay into a configurable module parameter, so users can determine how long to wait in this pseudo-suspend state before resuming the system.

This series introduces new kernel parameters and changes the semantics of some existing kernel parameters, so that the hard lockup detector and the soft lockup detector can be disabled or enabled individually. With this series applied, the user interface is as follows. - parameters in /proc/sys/kernel . soft_watchdog This is a new parameter to control and examine the run state of the soft lockup detector. . nmi_watchdog The semantics of this parameter have changed. It can now be used to control and examine the run state of the hard lockup detector. . watchdog This parameter is still available to control the run state of both lockup detectors at the same time. If this parameter is examined, it shows the logical OR of soft_watchdog and nmi_watchdog. . watchdog_thresh The semantics of this parameter are not affected by the patch. - kernel command line parameters . nosoftlockup The semantics of this parameter have changed. It can now be used to disable the soft lockup detector at boot time. . nmi_watchdog=0 or nmi_watchdog=1 Disable or enable the hard lockup detector at boot time. The patch introduces '=1' as a new option. . nowatchdog The semantics of this parameter are not affected by the patch. It is still available to disable both lockup detectors at boot time. Also, remove the proc_dowatchdog() function which is no longer needed.

The callers pass a 'bit mask' to this function to indicate which bit(s) should be set/cleared in 'watchdog_enabled'. This function handles an uncommon race with watchdog_nmi_enable() where a concurrent update of 'watchdog_enabled' is possible. We use 'cmpxchg' to detect the concurrency. [This avoids introducing a new spinlock or a mutex to synchronize updates of 'watchdog_enabled'. Using the same lock or mutex in watchdog thread context and in system call context needs to be considered carefully because it can make the code prone to deadlock situations in connection with parking/unparking the watchdog threads.] Signed-off-by: Ulrich Obergfell <uobergfe@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Don Zickus <dzickus@redhat.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Due to the request of KVM folks, they had a need to have one enabled but not the other. Internally rework the code to split things apart more cleanly. There is a bunch of churn here, but the end result should be code that should be easier to maintain and fix without knowing the internals of what is going on. This patch (of 9): Introduce new definitions and variables to separate the user interface in /proc/sys/kernel from the internal run state of the lockup detectors. The internal run state is represented by two bits in a new variable that is named 'watchdog_enabled'. This helps simplify the code, for example: - In order to check if any of the two lockup detectors is enabled, it is sufficient to check if 'watchdog_enabled' is not zero. - In order to enable/disable one or both lockup detectors, it is sufficient to set/clear one or both bits in 'watchdog_enabled'. - Concurrent updates of 'watchdog_enabled' need not be synchronized via a spinlock or a mutex. Updates can either be atomic or concurrency can be detected by using 'cmpxchg'.
