Pull core signal handling updates from Eric Biederman:
"It was observed that a periodic timer in combination with a
sufficiently expensive fork could prevent fork from every completing.
This contains the changes to remove the need for that restart.
This set of changes is split into several parts:
- The first part makes PIDTYPE_TGID a proper pid type instead
something only for very special cases. The part starts using
PIDTYPE_TGID enough so that in __send_signal where signals are
actually delivered we know if the signal is being sent to a a group
of processes or just a single process.
- With that prep work out of the way the logic in fork is modified so
that fork logically makes signals received while it is running
appear to be received after the fork completes"

Wen Yang <wen.yang99@zte.com.cn> and majiang <ma.jiang@zte.com.cn>
report that a periodic signal received during fork can cause fork to
continually restart preventing an application from making progress.
The code was being overly pessimistic. Fork needs to guarantee that a
signal sent to multiple processes is logically delivered before the
fork and just to the forking process or logically delivered after the
fork to both the forking process and it's newly spawned child. For
signals like periodic timers that are always delivered to a single
process fork can safely complete and let them appear to logically
delivered after the fork().
While examining this issue I also discovered that fork today will miss
signals delivered to multiple processes during the fork and handled by
another thread. Similarly the current code will also miss blocked
signals that are delivered to multiple process, as those signals will
not appear pending during fork.
Add a list of each thread that is currently forking, and keep on that
list a signal set that records all of the signals sent to multiple
processes. When fork completes initialize the new processes
shared_pending signal set with it. The calculate_sigpending function
will see those signals and set TIF_SIGPENDING causing the new task to
take the slow path to userspace to handle those signals. Making it
appear as if those signals were received immediately after the fork.
It is not possible to send real time signals to multiple processes and
exceptions don't go to multiple processes, which means that that are
no signals sent to multiple processes that require siginfo. This
means it is safe to not bother collecting siginfo on signals sent
during fork.
The sigaction of a child of fork is initially the same as the
sigaction of the parent process. So a signal the parent ignores the
child will also initially ignore. Therefore it is safe to ignore
signals sent to multiple processes and ignored by the forking process.
Signals sent to only a single process or only a single thread and delivered
during fork are treated as if they are received after the fork, and generally
not dealt with. They won't cause any problems.
V2: Added removal from the multiprocess list on failure.
V3: Use -ERESTARTNOINTR directly
V4: - Don't queue both SIGCONT and SIGSTOP
- Initialize signal_struct.multiprocess in init_task
- Move setting of shared_pending to before the new task
is visible to signals. This prevents signals from comming
in before shared_pending.signal is set to delayed.signal
and being lost.
V5: - rework list add and delete to account for idle threads
v6: - Use sigdelsetmask when removing stop signals

There are only two signals that are delivered to every member of a
signal group: SIGSTOP and SIGKILL. Signal delivery requires every
signal appear to be delivered either before or after a clone syscall.
SIGKILL terminates the clone so does not need to be considered. Which
leaves only SIGSTOP that needs to be considered when creating new
threads.
Today in the event of a group stop TIF_SIGPENDING will get set and the
fork will restart ensuring the fork syscall participates in the group
stop.
A fork (especially of a process with a lot of memory) is one of the
most expensive system so we really only want to restart a fork when
necessary.
It is easy so check to see if a SIGSTOP is ongoing and have the new
thread join it immediate after the clone completes. Making it appear
the clone completed happened just before the SIGSTOP.
The calculate_sigpending function will see the bits set in jobctl and
set TIF_SIGPENDING to ensure the new task takes the slow path to userspace.
V2: The call to task_join_group_stop was moved before the new task is
added to the thread group list. This should not matter as
sighand->siglock is held over both the addition of the threads,
the call to task_join_group_stop and do_signal_stop. But the change
is trivial and it is one less thing to worry about when reading
the code.

Add a function calculate_sigpending to test to see if any signals are
pending for a new task immediately following fork. Signals have to
happen either before or after fork. Today our practice is to push
all of the signals to before the fork, but that has the downside that
frequent or periodic signals can make fork take much much longer than
normal or prevent fork from completing entirely.
So we need move signals that we can after the fork to prevent that.
This updates the code to set TIF_SIGPENDING on a new task if there
are signals or other activities that have moved so that they appear
to happen after the fork.
As the code today restarts if it sees any such activity this won't
immediately have an effect, as there will be no reason for it
to set TIF_SIGPENDING immediately after the fork.
Adding calculate_sigpending means the code in fork can safely be
changed to not always restart if a signal is pending.
The new calculate_sigpending function sets sigpending if there
are pending bits in jobctl, pending signals, the freezer needs
to freeze the new task or the live kernel patching framework
need the new thread to take the slow path to userspace.
I have verified that setting TIF_SIGPENDING does make a new process
take the slow path to userspace before it executes it's first userspace
instruction.
I have looked at the callers of signal_wake_up and the code paths
setting TIF_SIGPENDING and I don't see anything else that needs to be
handled. The code probably doesn't need to set TIF_SIGPENDING for the
kernel live patching as it uses a separate thread flag as well. But
at this point it seems safer reuse the recalc_sigpending logic and get
the kernel live patching folks to sort out their story later.
V2: I have moved the test into schedule_tail where siglock can
be grabbed and recalc_sigpending can be reused directly.
Further as the last action of setting up a new task this
guarantees that TIF_SIGPENDING will be properly set in the
new process.
The helper calculate_sigpending takes the siglock and
uncontitionally sets TIF_SIGPENDING and let's recalc_sigpending
clear TIF_SIGPENDING if it is unnecessary. This allows reusing
the existing code and keeps maintenance of the conditions simple.
Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> suggested the movement
and pointed out the need to take siglock if this code
was going to be called while the new task is discoverable.

In practice this does not change anything as testing for fatal_signal_pending
and exiting for with an error code duplicates the work of the next clause
which recalculates pending signals and then exits fork if any are pending.
In both cases the pending signal will trigger the slow path when existing
to userspace, and the fatal signal will cause do_exit to be called.
The advantage of making this a separate test is that it makes it clear
processing the fatal signal will terminate the fork, and it allows the
rest of the signal logic to be updated without fear that this important
case will be lost.

Normally this would be something that would be handled by handling
signals that are sent to a group of processes but in this case the
forking process is not a member of the group being signaled. Thus
special code is needed to prevent a race with pid namespaces exiting,
and fork adding new processes within them.
Move this test up before the signal restart just in case signals are
also pending. Fatal conditions should take presedence over restarts.

Make the code more maintainable by performing more of the signal
related work in send_sigqueue.
A quick inspection of do_timer_create will show that this code path
does not lookup a thread group by a thread's pid. Making it safe
to find the task pointed to by it_pid with "pid_task(it_pid, type)";
This supports the changes needed in fork to tell if a signal was sent
to a single process or a group of processes.
Having the pid to task transition in signal.c will also make it easier
to sort out races with de_thread and and the thread group leader
exiting when it comes time to address that.

In good_sigevent directly compute the default return value as
"task_tgid(current)". This is exactly the same as
"task_pid(current->group_leader)" but written more clearly.
In the thread case first compute the thread's pid. Then veify that
attached to that pid is a thread of the current thread group.
This has the net effect of making the code a little clearer, and
making it obvious that posix timers never look up a process by a the
pid of a thread.

Everywhere except in the pid array we distinguish between a tasks pid and
a tasks tgid (thread group id). Even in the enumeration we want that
distinction sometimes so we have added __PIDTYPE_TGID. With leader_pid
we almost have an implementation of PIDTYPE_TGID in struct signal_struct.
Add PIDTYPE_TGID as a first class member of the pid_type enumeration and
into the pids array. Then remove the __PIDTYPE_TGID special case and the
leader_pid in signal_struct.
The net size increase is just an extra pointer added to struct pid and
an extra pair of pointers of an hlist_node added to task_struct.
The effect on code maintenance is the removal of a number of special
cases today and the potential to remove many more special cases as
PIDTYPE_TGID gets used to it's fullest. The long term potential
is allowing zombie thread group leaders to exit, which will remove
a lot more special cases in the code.

To access these fields the code always has to go to group leader so
going to signal struct is no loss and is actually a fundamental simplification.
This saves a little bit of memory by only allocating the pid pointer array
once instead of once for every thread, and even better this removes a
few potential races caused by the fact that group_leader can be changed
by de_thread, while signal_struct can not.

The cost is the the same and this removes the need
to worry about complications that come from de_thread
and group_leader changing.
__task_pid_nr_ns has been updated to take advantage of this change.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Restructure of lockdep and latency tracers
This is the biggest change. Joel Fernandes restructured the hooks
from irqs and preemption disabling and enabling. He got rid of a lot
of the preprocessor #ifdef mess that they caused.
He turned both lockdep and the latency tracers to use trace events
inserted in the preempt/irqs disabling paths. But unfortunately,
these started to cause issues in corner cases. Thus, parts of the
code was reverted back to where lockdep and the latency tracers just
get called directly (without using the trace events). But because the
original change cleaned up the code very nicely we kept that, as well
as the trace events for preempt and irqs disabling, but they are
limited to not being called in NMIs.
- Have trace events use SRCU for "rcu idle" calls. This was required
for the preempt/irqs off trace events. But it also had to not allow
them to be called in NMI context. Waiting till Paul makes an NMI safe
SRCU API.
- New notrace SRCU API to allow trace events to use SRCU.
- Addition of mcount-nop option support
- SPDX headers replacing GPL templates.
- Various other fixes and clean ups.
- Some fixes are marked for stable, but were not fully tested before
the merge window opened.

-mcount-nop gcc option generates the calls to the profiling functions
as nops which allows to avoid patching mcount jump with NOP instructions
initially.
-mcount-nop gcc option will be activated if platform selects
HAVE_NOP_MCOUNT and gcc actually supports it.
In addition to that CC_USING_NOP_MCOUNT is defined and could be used by
architectures to adapt ftrace patching behavior.

The problem is that the enabling of trace events before RCU is set up will
cause SRCU to give this warning. To avoid this, add a list to store probes
that need to be freed till after RCU is initialized, and then free them
then.

While debugging another bug, I was looking at all the synchronize*()
functions being used in kernel/trace, and noticed that trace_uprobes was
using synchronize_sched(), with a comment to synchronize with
{u,ret}_probe_trace_func(). When looking at those functions, the data is
protected with "rcu_read_lock()" and not with "rcu_read_lock_sched()". This
is using the wrong synchronize_*() function.

tracepoint_synchronize_unregister()
Now that some trace events can be protected by srcu_read_lock(tracepoint_srcu),
we need to make sure all locations that depend on this are also protected.
There were many places that did a synchronize_sched() thinking that it was
enough to protect againts access to trace events. This use to be the case,
but now that we use SRCU for _rcuidle() trace events, they may not be
protected by synchronize_sched(), as they may be called in paths that RCU is
not watching for preempt disable.

unify their usage"
Joel Fernandes created a nice patch that cleaned up the duplicate hooks used
by lockdep and irqsoff latency tracer. It made both use tracepoints. But the
latency tracer is triggering warnings when using tracepoints to call into
the latency tracer's routines. Mainly, they can be called from NMI context.
If that happens, then the SRCU may not work properly because on some
architectures, SRCU is not safe to be called in both NMI and non-NMI
context.
This is a partial revert of the clean up patch c3bc8fd637a9 ("tracing:
Centralize preemptirq tracepoints and unify their usage") that adds back the
direct calls into the latency tracer. It also only calls the trace events
when not in NMI.

It is due to running a CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY kernel, which would trigger
this warning every time:
WARN_ON_ONCE(preempt_count());
Because on CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY, preempt_count() is always zero.
This warning is to make sure preempt_count is set because
tracer_hardirqs_on() does a preempt_enable_notrace() to make the
preempt_trace() work properly, as being called by a trace event, the trace
event code disables preemption, and the tracer wants to know what the
preemption was before it was called.
Instead of enabling preemption like this, just record the preempt_count,
subtract PREEMPT_DISABLE_OFFSET from it (which is zero with !CONFIG_PREEMPT
set), and pass that value to the necessary functions, which should use the
passed in parameter instead of calling preempt_count() directly.

unify their usage"
Joel Fernandes created a nice patch that cleaned up the duplicate hooks used
by lockdep and irqsoff latency tracer. It made both use tracepoints. But it
caused lockdep to trigger several false positives. We have not figured out
why yet, but removing lockdep from using the trace event hooks and just call
its helper functions directly (like it use to), makes the problem go away.
This is a partial revert of the clean up patch c3bc8fd637a9 ("tracing:
Centralize preemptirq tracepoints and unify their usage") that adds direct
calls for lockdep, but also keeps most of the clean up done to get rid of
the horrible preprocessor if statements.

Recently we tried to make the preemptirqsoff tracer to use irqsoff
tracepoint probes. However this causes issues as reported by Masami:
[2.271078] Testing tracer preemptirqsoff: .. no entries found ..FAILED!
[2.381015] WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1 at /home/mhiramat/ksrc/linux/kernel/
trace/trace.c:1512 run_tracer_selftest+0xf3/0x154
This is due to the tracepoint code increasing the preempt nesting count
by calling an additional preempt_disable before calling into the
preemptoff tracer which messes up the preempt_count() check in
tracer_hardirqs_off.
To fix this, make the irqsoff tracer probes balance the additional outer
preempt_disable with a preempt_enable_notrace.
The other way to fix this is to just use SRCU for all tracepoints.
However we can't do that because we can't use NMIs from RCU context.

Since we switched to using SRCU for tracepoints used in the idle path,
we can no longer use rcu_dereference_sched for dereferencing points in
trace-event hooks.
Since tracepoints can now use either SRCU or sched-RCU, just use
rcu_dereference_raw for traceevents just like we're doing when
dereferencing the tracepoint table.
This prevents an RCU warning reported by Masami:

Fix within_notrace_func() to check only notrace functions and to ignore the
kprobe-event which can not solve symbol addresses.
within_notrace_func() returns true if the given kprobe events probe point
seems to be out-of-range. But that is not the correct place to check for it,
it should be done in kprobes afterwards.
kprobe-events allow users to define a probe point on "currently unloaded
module" so that it can trace the event during module load. In this case, the
user will put a probe on a symbol which is not in kallsyms yet and it hits
the within_notrace_func(). As a result, kprobe-events always refuses if
user defines a probe on a "currenly unloaded module".

The hwlat tracer uses a kernel thread to measure latencies. The function
that creates this kernel thread, start_kthread(), can be called when the
tracer is initialized and when the tracer is explicitly enabled.
start_kthread() does not check if there is an existing hwlat kernel
thread and will create a new one each time it is called.
This causes the reference to the previous thread to be lost. Without the
thread reference, the old kernel thread becomes unstoppable and
continues to use CPU time even after the hwlat tracer has been disabled.
This problem can be observed when a system is booted with tracing
enabled and the hwlat tracer is configured like this:
echo hwlat > current_tracer; echo 1 > tracing_on
Add the missing check for an existing kernel thread in start_kthread()
to prevent this problem. This function and the rest of the hwlat kernel
thread setup and teardown are already serialized because they are called
through the tracer core code with trace_type_lock held.
[
Note, this only fixes the symptom. The real fix was not to call
this function when tracing_on was already one. But this still makes
the code more robust, so we'll add it.

Currently, when one echo's in 1 into tracing_on, the current tracer's
"start()" function is executed, even if tracing_on was already one. This can
lead to strange side effects. One being that if the hwlat tracer is enabled,
and someone does "echo 1 > tracing_on" into tracing_on, the hwlat tracer's
start() function is called again which will recreate another kernel thread,
and make it unable to remove the old one.

This patch detaches the preemptirq tracepoints from the tracers and
keeps it separate.
Advantages:
* Lockdep and irqsoff event can now run in parallel since they no longer
have their own calls.
* This unifies the usecase of adding hooks to an irqsoff and irqson
event, and a preemptoff and preempton event.
3 users of the events exist:
- Lockdep
- irqsoff and preemptoff tracers
- irqs and preempt trace events
The unification cleans up several ifdefs and makes the code in preempt
tracer and irqsoff tracers simpler. It gets rid of all the horrific
ifdeferry around PROVE_LOCKING and makes configuration of the different
users of the tracepoints more easy and understandable. It also gets rid
of the time_* function calls from the lockdep hooks used to call into
the preemptirq tracer which is not needed anymore. The negative delta in
lines of code in this patch is quite large too.
In the patch we introduce a new CONFIG option PREEMPTIRQ_TRACEPOINTS
as a single point for registering probes onto the tracepoints. With
this,
the web of config options for preempt/irq toggle tracepoints and its
users becomes:
PREEMPT_TRACER PREEMPTIRQ_EVENTS IRQSOFF_TRACER PROVE_LOCKING
| | \ | |
\ (selects) / \ \ (selects) /
TRACE_PREEMPT_TOGGLE ----> TRACE_IRQFLAGS
\ /
\ (depends on) /
PREEMPTIRQ_TRACEPOINTS
Other than the performance tests mentioned in the previous patch, I also
ran the locking API test suite. I verified that all tests cases are
passing.
I also injected issues by not registering lockdep probes onto the
tracepoints and I see failures to confirm that the probes are indeed
working.
This series + lockdep probes not registered (just to inject errors):
[ 0.000000] hard-irqs-on + irq-safe-A/21: ok | ok | ok |
[ 0.000000] soft-irqs-on + irq-safe-A/21: ok | ok | ok |

With this series + lockdep probes registered, all locking tests pass:

In recent tests with IRQ on/off tracepoints, a large performance
overhead ~10% is noticed when running hackbench. This is root caused to
calls to rcu_irq_enter_irqson and rcu_irq_exit_irqson from the
tracepoint code. Following a long discussion on the list [1] about this,
we concluded that srcu is a better alternative for use during rcu idle.
Although it does involve extra barriers, its lighter than the sched-rcu
version which has to do additional RCU calls to notify RCU idle about
entry into RCU sections.
In this patch, we change the underlying implementation of the
trace_*_rcuidle API to use SRCU. This has shown to improve performance
alot for the high frequency irq enable/disable tracepoints.
Test: Tested idle and preempt/irq tracepoints.
Here are some performance numbers:
With a run of the following 30 times on a single core x86 Qemu instance
with 1GB memory:
hackbench -g 4 -f 2 -l 3000
Completion times in seconds. CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y.
No patches (without this series)
Mean: 3.048
Median: 3.025
Std Dev: 0.064
With Lockdep using irq tracepoints with RCU implementation:
Mean: 3.451 (-11.66 %)
Median: 3.447 (-12.22%)
Std Dev: 0.049
With Lockdep using irq tracepoints with SRCU implementation (this series):
Mean: 3.020 (I would consider the improvement against the "without
this series" case as just noise).
Median: 3.013
Std Dev: 0.033

get_cpu_var disables preemption which has the potential to call into the
preemption disable trace points causing some complications. There's also
no need to disable preemption in uses of get_lock_stats anyway since
preempt is already disabled. So lets simplify the code.

Move selftest function to its own compile unit so it can be compiled
with the ftrace cflags (CC_FLAGS_FTRACE) allowing it to be probed
during the ftrace startup tests.

Prohibit kprobe-events probing on notrace functions. Since probing on a
notrace function can cause a recursive event call. In most cases those are just
skipped, but in some cases it falls into an infinite recursive call.
This protection can be disabled by the kconfig
CONFIG_KPROBE_EVENTS_ON_NOTRACE=y, but it is highly recommended to keep it
"n" for normal kernel builds. Note that this is only available if "kprobes on
ftrace" has been implemented on the target arch and CONFIG_KPROBES_ON_FTRACE=y.

The function enable_trace_kprobe() performs slightly differently if the file
parameter is passed in as NULL on non-NULL. Instead of checking file twice,
move the code between the two tests into a static inline helper function to
make the code easier to follow.

ftrace_nr_registered_ops() has been introduced by commit ea701f11da44
("ftrace: Add selftest to test function trace recursion protection"), but
its caller has been removed by commit 05cbbf643b8e ("tracing: Fix selftest
function recursion accounting"). So it is not called anymore.
