tracing: Fix stack trace event size

2021-04-07T12:47:42Z

commit 9deb193af69d3fd6dd8e47f292b67c805a787010 upstream. Commit cbc3b92ce037 fixed an issue to modify the macros of the stack trace event so that user space could parse it properly. Originally the stack trace format to user space showed that the called stack was a dynamic array. But it is not actually a dynamic array, in the way that other dynamic event arrays worked, and this broke user space parsing for it. The update was to make the array look to have 8 entries in it. Helper functions were added to make it parse it correctly, as the stack was dynamic, but was determined by the size of the event stored. Although this fixed user space on how it read the event, it changed the internal structure used for the stack trace event. It changed the array size from [0] to [8] (added 8 entries). This increased the size of the stack trace event by 8 words. The size reserved on the ring buffer was the size of the stack trace event plus the number of stack entries found in the stack trace. That commit caused the amount to be 8 more than what was needed because it did not expect the caller field to have any size. This produced 8 entries of garbage (and reading random data) from the stack trace event: -0 [002] d... 1976396.837549: => trace_event_raw_event_sched_switch => __traceiter_sched_switch => __schedule => schedule_idle => do_idle => cpu_startup_entry => secondary_startup_64_no_verify => 0xc8c5e150ffff93de => 0xffff93de => 0 => 0 => 0xc8c5e17800000000 => 0x1f30affff93de => 0x00000004 => 0x200000000 Instead, subtract the size of the caller field from the size of the event to make sure that only the amount needed to store the stack trace is reserved.

locking/ww_mutex: Simplify use_ww_ctx & ww_ctx handling

2021-04-07T12:47:40Z

[ Upstream commit 5de2055d31ea88fd9ae9709ac95c372a505a60fa ] The use_ww_ctx flag is passed to mutex_optimistic_spin(), but the function doesn't use it. The frequent use of the (use_ww_ctx && ww_ctx) combination is repetitive. In fact, ww_ctx should not be used at all if !use_ww_ctx. Simplify ww_mutex code by dropping use_ww_ctx from mutex_optimistic_spin() an clear ww_ctx if !use_ww_ctx. In this way, we can replace (use_ww_ctx && ww_ctx) by just (ww_ctx).

module: harden ELF info handling

2021-04-07T12:47:38Z

[ Upstream commit ec2a29593c83ed71a7f16e3243941ebfcf75fdf6 ] 5fdc7db644 ("module: setup load info before module_sig_check()") moved the ELF setup, so that it was done before the signature check. This made the module name available to signature error messages. However, the checks for ELF correctness in setup_load_info are not sufficient to prevent bad memory references due to corrupted offset fields, indices, etc. So, there's a regression in behavior here: a corrupt and unsigned (or badly signed) module, which might previously have been rejected immediately, can now cause an oops/crash. Harden ELF handling for module loading by doing the following: - Move the signature check back up so that it comes before ELF initialization. It's best to do the signature check to see if we can trust the module, before using the ELF structures inside it. This also makes checks against info->len more accurate again, as this field will be reduced by the length of the signature in mod_check_sig(). The module name is now once again not available for error messages during the signature check, but that seems like a fair tradeoff. - Check if sections have offset / size fields that at least don't exceed the length of the module. - Check if sections have section name offsets that don't fall outside the section name table. - Add a few other sanity checks against invalid section indices, etc. This is not an exhaustive consistency check, but the idea is to at least get through the signature and blacklist checks without crashing because of corrupted ELF info, and to error out gracefully for most issues that would have caused problems later on.

PM: EM: postpone creating the debugfs dir till fs_initcall

[ Upstream commit fb9d62b27ab1e07d625591549c314b7d406d21df ] The debugfs directory '/sys/kernel/debug/energy_model' is needed before the Energy Model registration can happen. With the recent change in debugfs subsystem it's not allowed to create this directory at early stage (core_initcall). Thus creating this directory would fail. Postpone the creation of the EM debug dir to later stage: fs_initcall. It should be safe since all clients: CPUFreq drivers, Devfreq drivers will be initialized in later stages.

gcov: fix clang-11+ support

2021-03-30T12:35:23Z

commit 60bcf728ee7c60ac2a1f9a0eaceb3a7b3954cd2b upstream. LLVM changed the expected function signatures for llvm_gcda_start_file() and llvm_gcda_emit_function() in the clang-11 release. Users of clang-11 or newer may have noticed their kernels failing to boot due to a panic when enabling CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL=y +CONFIG_GCOV_PROFILE_ALL=y. Fix up the function signatures so calling these functions doesn't panic the kernel.

genirq: Disable interrupts for force threaded handlers

2021-03-24T10:26:45Z

commit 81e2073c175b887398e5bca6c004efa89983f58d upstream. With interrupt force threading all device interrupt handlers are invoked from kernel threads. Contrary to hard interrupt context the invocation only disables bottom halfs, but not interrupts. This was an oversight back then because any code like this will have an issue: thread(irq_A) irq_handler(A) spin_lock(&foo->lock); interrupt(irq_B) irq_handler(B) spin_lock(&foo->lock); This has been triggered with networking (NAPI vs. hrtimers) and console drivers where printk() happens from an interrupt which interrupted the force threaded handler. Now people noticed and started to change the spin_lock() in the handler to spin_lock_irqsave() which affects performance or add IRQF_NOTHREAD to the interrupt request which in turn breaks RT. Fix the root cause and not the symptom and disable interrupts before invoking the force threaded handler which preserves the regular semantics and the usefulness of the interrupt force threading as a general debugging tool. For not RT this is not changing much, except that during the execution of the threaded handler interrupts are delayed until the handler returns. Vs. scheduling and softirq processing there is no difference. For RT kernels there is no issue.
