audit: improve audit queue handling when "audit=1" on cmdline

2022-02-08T17:23:13Z

commit f26d04331360d42dbd6b58448bd98e4edbfbe1c5 upstream. When an admin enables audit at early boot via the "audit=1" kernel command line the audit queue behavior is slightly different; the audit subsystem goes to greater lengths to avoid dropping records, which unfortunately can result in problems when the audit daemon is forcibly stopped for an extended period of time. This patch makes a number of changes designed to improve the audit queuing behavior so that leaving the audit daemon in a stopped state for an extended period does not cause a significant impact to the system. - kauditd_send_queue() is now limited to looping through the passed queue only once per call. This not only prevents the function from looping indefinitely when records are returned to the current queue, it also allows any recovery handling in kauditd_thread() to take place when kauditd_send_queue() returns. - Transient netlink send errors seen as -EAGAIN now cause the record to be returned to the retry queue instead of going to the hold queue. The intention of the hold queue is to store, perhaps for an extended period of time, the events which led up to the audit daemon going offline. The retry queue remains a temporary queue intended to protect against transient issues between the kernel and the audit daemon. - The retry queue is now limited by the audit_backlog_limit setting, the same as the other queues. This allows admins to bound the size of all of the audit queues on the system. - kauditd_rehold_skb() now returns records to the end of the hold queue to ensure ordering is preserved in the face of recent changes to kauditd_send_queue().

PM: wakeup: simplify the output logic of pm_show_wakelocks()

2022-02-08T17:23:03Z

commit c9d967b2ce40d71e968eb839f36c936b8a9cf1ea upstream. The buffer handling in pm_show_wakelocks() is tricky, and hopefully correct. Ensure it really is correct by using sysfs_emit_at() which handles all of the tricky string handling logic in a PAGE_SIZE buffer for us automatically as this is a sysfs file being read from.

cputime, cpuacct: Include guest time in user time in cpuacct.stat

2022-01-27T08:04:30Z

commit 9731698ecb9c851f353ce2496292ff9fcea39dff upstream. cpuacct.stat in no-root cgroups shows user time without guest time included int it. This doesn't match with user time shown in root cpuacct.stat and /proc//stat. This also affects cgroup2's cpu.stat in the same way. Make account_guest_time() to add user time to cgroup's cpustat to fix this.

audit: ensure userspace is penalized the same as the kernel when under pressure

2022-01-27T08:04:26Z

[ Upstream commit 8f110f530635af44fff1f4ee100ecef0bac62510 ] Due to the audit control mutex necessary for serializing audit userspace messages we haven't been able to block/penalize userspace processes that attempt to send audit records while the system is under audit pressure. The result is that privileged userspace applications have a priority boost with respect to audit as they are not bound by the same audit queue throttling as the other tasks on the system. This patch attempts to restore some balance to the system when under audit pressure by blocking these privileged userspace tasks after they have finished their audit processing, and dropped the audit control mutex, but before they return to userspace.

sched/rt: Try to restart rt period timer when rt runtime exceeded

2022-01-27T08:04:19Z

[ Upstream commit 9b58e976b3b391c0cf02e038d53dd0478ed3013c ] When rt_runtime is modified from -1 to a valid control value, it may cause the task to be throttled all the time. Operations like the following will trigger the bug. E.g: 1. echo -1 > /proc/sys/kernel/sched_rt_runtime_us 2. Run a FIFO task named A that executes while(1) 3. echo 950000 > /proc/sys/kernel/sched_rt_runtime_us When rt_runtime is -1, The rt period timer will not be activated when task A enqueued. And then the task will be throttled after setting rt_runtime to 950,000. The task will always be throttled because the rt period timer is not activated.

timekeeping: Really make sure wall_to_monotonic isn't positive

2021-12-22T08:19:03Z

commit 4e8c11b6b3f0b6a283e898344f154641eda94266 upstream. Even after commit e1d7ba873555 ("time: Always make sure wall_to_monotonic isn't positive") it is still possible to make wall_to_monotonic positive by running the following code: int main(void) { struct timespec time; clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, &time); time.tv_nsec = 0; clock_settime(CLOCK_REALTIME, &time); return 0; } The reason is that the second parameter of timespec64_compare(), ts_delta, may be unnormalized because the delta is calculated with an open coded substraction which causes the comparison of tv_sec to yield the wrong result: wall_to_monotonic = { .tv_sec = -10, .tv_nsec = 900000000 } ts_delta = { .tv_sec = -9, .tv_nsec = -900000000 } That makes timespec64_compare() claim that wall_to_monotonic < ts_delta, but actually the result should be wall_to_monotonic > ts_delta. After normalization, the result of timespec64_compare() is correct because the tv_sec comparison is not longer misleading: wall_to_monotonic = { .tv_sec = -10, .tv_nsec = 900000000 } ts_delta = { .tv_sec = -10, .tv_nsec = 100000000 } Use timespec64_sub() to ensure that ts_delta is normalized, which fixes the issue.

audit: improve robustness of the audit queue handling

2021-12-22T08:19:01Z

commit f4b3ee3c85551d2d343a3ba159304066523f730f upstream. If the audit daemon were ever to get stuck in a stopped state the kernel's kauditd_thread() could get blocked attempting to send audit records to the userspace audit daemon. With the kernel thread blocked it is possible that the audit queue could grow unbounded as certain audit record generating events must be exempt from the queue limits else the system enter a deadlock state. This patch resolves this problem by lowering the kernel thread's socket sending timeout from MAX_SCHEDULE_TIMEOUT to HZ/10 and tweaks the kauditd_send_queue() function to better manage the various audit queues when connection problems occur between the kernel and the audit daemon. With this patch, the backlog may temporarily grow beyond the defined limits when the audit daemon is stopped and the system is under heavy audit pressure, but kauditd_thread() will continue to make progress and drain the queues as it would for other connection problems. For example, with the audit daemon put into a stopped state and the system configured to audit every syscall it was still possible to shutdown the system without a kernel panic, deadlock, etc.; granted, the system was slow to shutdown but that is to be expected given the extreme pressure of recording every syscall. The timeout value of HZ/10 was chosen primarily through experimentation and this developer's "gut feeling". There is likely no one perfect value, but as this scenario is limited in scope (root privileges would be needed to send SIGSTOP to the audit daemon), it is likely not worth exposing this as a tunable at present. This can always be done at a later date if it proves necessary.
