clocksource: Retry clock read if long delays detected

2021-07-20T14:15:46Z

[ Upstream commit db3a34e17433de2390eb80d436970edcebd0ca3e ] When the clocksource watchdog marks a clock as unstable, this might be due to that clock being unstable or it might be due to delays that happen to occur between the reads of the two clocks. Yes, interrupts are disabled across those two reads, but there are no shortage of things that can delay interrupts-disabled regions of code ranging from SMI handlers to vCPU preemption. It would be good to have some indication as to why the clock was marked unstable. Therefore, re-read the watchdog clock on either side of the read from the clock under test. If the watchdog clock shows an excessive time delta between its pair of reads, the reads are retried. The maximum number of retries is specified by a new kernel boot parameter clocksource.max_cswd_read_retries, which defaults to three, that is, up to four reads, one initial and up to three retries. If more than one retry was required, a message is printed on the console (the occasional single retry is expected behavior, especially in guest OSes). If the maximum number of retries is exceeded, the clock under test will be marked unstable. However, the probability of this happening due to various sorts of delays is quite small. In addition, the reason (clock-read delays) for the unstable marking will be apparent. Reported-by: Chris Mason Signed-off-by: Paul E.

posix-timers: Preserve return value in clock_adjtime32()

2021-05-22T08:59:21Z

commit 2d036dfa5f10df9782f5278fc591d79d283c1fad upstream. The return value on success (>= 0) is overwritten by the return value of put_old_timex32(). That works correct in the fault case, but is wrong for the success case where put_old_timex32() returns 0. Just check the return value of put_old_timex32() and return -EFAULT in case it is not zero.

hrtimer: Update softirq_expires_next correctly after __hrtimer_get_next_event()

2021-03-17T15:43:51Z

[ Upstream commit 46eb1701c046cc18c032fa68f3c8ccbf24483ee4 ] hrtimer_force_reprogram() and hrtimer_interrupt() invokes __hrtimer_get_next_event() to find the earliest expiry time of hrtimer bases. __hrtimer_get_next_event() does not update cpu_base::[softirq_]_expires_next to preserve reprogramming logic. That needs to be done at the callsites. hrtimer_force_reprogram() updates cpu_base::softirq_expires_next only when the first expiring timer is a softirq timer and the soft interrupt is not activated. That's wrong because cpu_base::softirq_expires_next is left stale when the first expiring timer of all bases is a timer which expires in hard interrupt context. hrtimer_interrupt() does never update cpu_base::softirq_expires_next which is wrong too. That becomes a problem when clock_settime() sets CLOCK_REALTIME forward and the first soft expiring timer is in the CLOCK_REALTIME_SOFT base. Setting CLOCK_REALTIME forward moves the clock MONOTONIC based expiry time of that timer before the stale cpu_base::softirq_expires_next. cpu_base::softirq_expires_next is cached to make the check for raising the soft interrupt fast. In the above case the soft interrupt won't be raised until clock monotonic reaches the stale cpu_base::softirq_expires_next value. That's incorrect, but what's worse it that if the softirq timer becomes the first expiring timer of all clock bases after the hard expiry timer has been handled the reprogramming of the clockevent from hrtimer_interrupt() will result in an interrupt storm. That happens because the reprogramming does not use cpu_base::softirq_expires_next, it uses __hrtimer_get_next_event() which returns the actual expiry time. Once clock MONOTONIC reaches cpu_base::softirq_expires_next the soft interrupt is raised and the storm subsides. Change the logic in hrtimer_force_reprogram() to evaluate the soft and hard bases seperately, update softirq_expires_next and handle the case when a soft expiring timer is the first of all bases by comparing the expiry times and updating the required cpu base fields. Split this functionality into a separate function to be able to use it in hrtimer_interrupt() as well without copy paste.

random32: make prandom_u32() output unpredictable

2020-11-18T18:18:52Z

commit c51f8f88d705e06bd696d7510aff22b33eb8e638 upstream. Non-cryptographic PRNGs may have great statistical properties, but are usually trivially predictable to someone who knows the algorithm, given a small sample of their output. An LFSR like prandom_u32() is particularly simple, even if the sample is widely scattered bits. It turns out the network stack uses prandom_u32() for some things like random port numbers which it would prefer are *not* trivially predictable. Predictability led to a practical DNS spoofing attack. Oops. This patch replaces the LFSR with a homebrew cryptographic PRNG based on the SipHash round function, which is in turn seeded with 128 bits of strong random key. (The authors of SipHash have *not* been consulted about this abuse of their algorithm.) Speed is prioritized over security; attacks are rare, while performance is always wanted. Replacing all callers of prandom_u32() is the quick fix. Whether to reinstate a weaker PRNG for uses which can tolerate it is an open question. Commit f227e3ec3b5c ("random32: update the net random state on interrupt and activity") was an earlier attempt at a solution. This patch replaces it.

tick/common: Touch watchdog in tick_unfreeze() on all CPUs

2020-11-18T18:18:46Z

commit 5167c506d62dd9ffab73eba23c79b0a8845c9fe1 upstream. Suspend to IDLE invokes tick_unfreeze() on resume. tick_unfreeze() on the first resuming CPU resumes timekeeping, which also has the side effect of resetting the softlockup watchdog on this CPU. But on the secondary CPUs the watchdog is not reset in the resume / unfreeze() path, which can result in false softlockup warnings on those CPUs depending on the time spent in suspend. Prevent this by clearing the softlock watchdog in the unfreeze path also on the secondary resuming CPUs.

random32: update the net random state on interrupt and activity

2020-08-07T07:36:20Z

commit f227e3ec3b5cad859ad15666874405e8c1bbc1d4 upstream. This modifies the first 32 bits out of the 128 bits of a random CPU's net_rand_state on interrupt or CPU activity to complicate remote observations that could lead to guessing the network RNG's internal state. Note that depending on some network devices' interrupt rate moderation or binding, this re-seeding might happen on every packet or even almost never. In addition, with NOHZ some CPUs might not even get timer interrupts, leaving their local state rarely updated, while they are running networked processes making use of the random state. For this reason, we also perform this update in update_process_times() in order to at least update the state when there is user or system activity, since it's the only case we care about.

timer: Fix wheel index calculation on last level

2020-07-22T07:32:11Z

commit e2a71bdea81690b6ef11f4368261ec6f5b6891aa upstream. When an expiration delta falls into the last level of the wheel, that delta has be compared against the maximum possible delay and reduced to fit in if necessary. However instead of comparing the delta against the maximum, the code compares the actual expiry against the maximum. Then instead of fixing the delta to fit in, it sets the maximum delta as the expiry value. This can result in various undesired outcomes, the worst possible one being a timer expiring 15 days ahead to fire immediately.
