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.

KVM: rseq: Update rseq when processing NOTIFY_RESUME on xfer to KVM guest

2021-09-22T14:24:01Z

Invoke rseq's NOTIFY_RESUME handler when processing the flag prior to transferring to a KVM guest, which is roughly equivalent to an exit to userspace and processes many of the same pending actions. While the task cannot be in an rseq critical section as the KVM path is reachable only by via ioctl(KVM_RUN), the side effects that apply to rseq outside of a critical section still apply, e.g. the current CPU needs to be updated if the task is migrated. Clearing TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME without informing rseq can lead to segfaults and other badness in userspace VMMs that use rseq in combination with KVM, e.g. due to the CPU ID being stale after task migration.

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: Use different define for selector variable in SUD

2021-02-05T23:21:42Z

Michael Kerrisk suggested that, from an API perspective, it is a bad idea to share the PR_SYS_DISPATCH_ defines between the prctl operation and the selector variable. Therefore, define two new constants to be used by SUD's selector variable and update the corresponding documentation and test cases. While this changes the API syscall user dispatch has never been part of a Linux release, it will show up for the first time in 5.11.

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.
