entry: Snapshot thread flags

2021-11-30T23:06:43Z

Some thread flags can be set remotely, and so even when IRQs are disabled, the flags can change under our feet. Generally this is unlikely to cause a problem in practice, but it is somewhat unsound, and KCSAN will legitimately warn that there is a data race. To avoid such issues, a snapshot of the flags has to be taken prior to using them. Some places already use READ_ONCE() for that, others do not. Convert them all to the new flag accessor helpers.

entry: rseq: Call rseq_handle_notify_resume() in tracehook_notify_resume()

2021-09-22T14:24:01Z

Invoke rseq_handle_notify_resume() from tracehook_notify_resume() now that the two function are always called back-to-back by architectures that have rseq. The rseq helper is stubbed out for architectures that don't support rseq, i.e. this is a nop across the board. Note, tracehook_notify_resume() is horribly named and arguably does not belong in tracehook.h as literally every line of code in it has nothing to do with tracing. But, that's been true since commit a42c6ded827d ("move key_repace_session_keyring() into tracehook_notify_resume()") first usurped tracehook_notify_resume() back in 2012. Punt cleaning that mess up to future patches. No functional change intended.

tick/nohz: Only check for RCU deferred wakeup on user/guest entry when needed

2021-05-31T08:14:49Z

Checking for and processing RCU-nocb deferred wakeup upon user/guest entry is only relevant when nohz_full runs on the local CPU, otherwise the periodic tick should take care of it. Make sure we don't needlessly pollute these fast-paths as a -3% performance regression on a will-it-scale.per_process_ops has been reported so far.

entry: Explicitly flush pending rcuog wakeup before last rescheduling point

2021-02-17T13:12:43Z

Following the idle loop model, cleanly check for pending rcuog wakeup before the last rescheduling point on resuming to user mode. This way we can avoid to do it from rcu_user_enter() with the last resort self-IPI hack that enforces rescheduling.

preempt/dynamic: Provide irqentry_exit_cond_resched() static call

2021-02-17T13:12:42Z

Provide static call to control IRQ preemption (called in CONFIG_PREEMPT) so that we can override its behaviour when preempt= is overriden. Since the default behaviour is full preemption, its call is initialized to provide IRQ preemption when preempt= isn't passed.

entry: Ensure trap after single-step on system call return

2021-02-05T23:21:42Z

Commit 299155244770 ("entry: Drop usage of TIF flags in the generic syscall code") introduced a bug on architectures using the generic syscall entry code, in which processes stopped by PTRACE_SYSCALL do not trap on syscall return after receiving a TIF_SINGLESTEP. The reason is that the meaning of TIF_SINGLESTEP flag is overloaded to cause the trap after a system call is executed, but since the above commit, the syscall call handler only checks for the SYSCALL_WORK flags on the exit work. Split the meaning of TIF_SINGLESTEP such that it only means single-step mode, and create a new type of SYSCALL_WORK to request a trap immediately after a syscall in single-step mode. In the current implementation, the SYSCALL_WORK flag shadows the TIF_SINGLESTEP flag for simplicity. Update x86 to flip this bit when a tracer enables single stepping.

entry: Unbreak single step reporting behaviour

2021-01-28T12:46:55Z

The move of TIF_SYSCALL_EMU to SYSCALL_WORK_SYSCALL_EMU broke single step reporting. The original code reported the single step when TIF_SINGLESTEP was set and TIF_SYSCALL_EMU was not set. The SYSCALL_WORK conversion got the logic wrong and now the reporting only happens when both bits are set. Restore the original behaviour.
