no_llseek had been defined to NULL two years ago, in commit 868941b
("fs: remove no_llseek")
To quote that commit,
At -rc1 we'll need do a mechanical removal of no_llseek -
git grep -l -w no_llseek | grep -v porting.rst | while read i; do
sed -i '/\<no_llseek\>/d' $i
done
would do it.
Unfortunately, that hadn't been done. Linus, could you do that now, so
that we could finally put that thing to rest? All instances are of the
form
.llseek = no_llseek,
so it's obviously safe.
Pull CXL updates from Dan Williams:
"The highlights in terms of new functionality are support for the
standard CXL Performance Monitor definition that appeared in CXL 3.0,
support for device sanitization (wiping all data from a device),
secure-erase (re-keying encryption of user data), and support for
firmware update. The firmware update support is notable as it reuses
the simple sysfs_upload interface to just cat(1) a blob to a sysfs
file and pipe that to the device.
Additionally there are a substantial number of cleanups and
reorganizations to get ready for RCH error handling (RCH == Restricted
CXL Host == current shipping hardware generation / pre CXL-2.0
topologies) and type-2 (accelerator / vendor specific) devices.
For vendor specific devices they implement a subset of what the
generic type-3 (generic memory expander) driver expects. As a result
the rework decouples optional infrastructure from the core driver
context.
For RCH topologies, where the specification working group did not want
to confuse pre-CXL-aware operating systems, many of the standard
registers are hidden which makes support standard bus features like
AER (PCIe Advanced Error Reporting) difficult. The rework arranges for
the driver to help the PCI-AER core. Bjorn is on board with this
direction but a late regression disocvery means the completion of this
functionality needs to cook a bit longer, so it is code
reorganizations only for now.
Summary:
- Add infrastructure for supporting background commands along with
support for device sanitization and firmware update
- Introduce a CXL performance monitoring unit driver based on the
common definition in the specification.
- Land some preparatory cleanup and refactoring for the anticipated
arrival of CXL type-2 (accelerator devices) and CXL RCH (CXL-v1.1
topology) error handling.
- Rework CPU cache management with respect to region configuration
(device hotplug or other dynamic changes to memory interleaving)
- Fix region reconfiguration vs CXL decoder ordering rules"

The only instances of get_user_pages_remote() invocations which used the
vmas parameter were for a single page which can instead simply look up the
VMA directly. In particular:-
- __update_ref_ctr() looked up the VMA but did nothing with it so we simply
remove it.
- __access_remote_vm() was already using vma_lookup() when the original
lookup failed so by doing the lookup directly this also de-duplicates the
code.
We are able to perform these VMA operations as we already hold the
mmap_lock in order to be able to call get_user_pages_remote().
As part of this work we add get_user_page_vma_remote() which abstracts the
VMA lookup, error handling and decrementing the page reference count should
the VMA lookup fail.
This forms part of a broader set of patches intended to eliminate the vmas
parameter altogether.

Currently, PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE is treated specially since task-clock and
cpu-clock events are interfaced through it but internally gets forwarded
to their own pmus.
Rework this by overwriting event->attr.type in perf_swevent_init() which
will cause perf_init_event() to retry with updated type and event will
automatically get forwarded to right pmu. With the change, SW pmu no
longer needs to be treated specially and can be included in 'pmu_idr'

Pull module updates from Luis Chamberlain:
"The summary of the changes for this pull requests is:
- Song Liu's new struct module_memory replacement
- Nick Alcock's MODULE_LICENSE() removal for non-modules
- My cleanups and enhancements to reduce the areas where we vmalloc
module memory for duplicates, and the respective debug code which
proves the remaining vmalloc pressure comes from userspace.
Most of the changes have been in linux-next for quite some time except
the minor fixes I made to check if a module was already loaded prior
to allocating the final module memory with vmalloc and the respective
debug code it introduces to help clarify the issue. Although the
functional change is small it is rather safe as it can only *help*
reduce vmalloc space for duplicates and is confirmed to fix a bootup
issue with over 400 CPUs with KASAN enabled. I don't expect stable
kernels to pick up that fix as the cleanups would have also had to
have been picked up. Folks on larger CPU systems with modules will
want to just upgrade if vmalloc space has been an issue on bootup.
Given the size of this request, here's some more elaborate details:
The functional change change in this pull request is the very first
patch from Song Liu which replaces the 'struct module_layout' with a
new 'struct module_memory'. The old data structure tried to put
together all types of supported module memory types in one data
structure, the new one abstracts the differences in memory types in a
module to allow each one to provide their own set of details. This
paves the way in the future so we can deal with them in a cleaner way.
If you look at changes they also provide a nice cleanup of how we
handle these different memory areas in a module. This change has been
in linux-next since before the merge window opened for v6.3 so to
provide more than a full kernel cycle of testing. It's a good thing as
quite a bit of fixes have been found for it.
Jason Baron then made dynamic debug a first class citizen module user
by using module notifier callbacks to allocate / remove module
specific dynamic debug information.
Nick Alcock has done quite a bit of work cross-tree to remove module
license tags from things which cannot possibly be module at my request
so to:
a) help him with his longer term tooling goals which require a
deterministic evaluation if a piece a symbol code could ever be
part of a module or not. But quite recently it is has been made
clear that tooling is not the only one that would benefit.
Disambiguating symbols also helps efforts such as live patching,
kprobes and BPF, but for other reasons and R&D on this area is
active with no clear solution in sight.
b) help us inch closer to the now generally accepted long term goal
of automating all the MODULE_LICENSE() tags from SPDX license tags
In so far as a) is concerned, although module license tags are a no-op
for non-modules, tools which would want create a mapping of possible
modules can only rely on the module license tag after the commit
8b41fc4454 ("kbuild: create modules.builtin without
Makefile.modbuiltin or tristate.conf").
Nick has been working on this *for years* and AFAICT I was the only
one to suggest two alternatives to this approach for tooling. The
complexity in one of my suggested approaches lies in that we'd need a
possible-obj-m and a could-be-module which would check if the object
being built is part of any kconfig build which could ever lead to it
being part of a module, and if so define a new define
-DPOSSIBLE_MODULE [0].
A more obvious yet theoretical approach I've suggested would be to
have a tristate in kconfig imply the same new -DPOSSIBLE_MODULE as
well but that means getting kconfig symbol names mapping to modules
always, and I don't think that's the case today. I am not aware of
Nick or anyone exploring either of these options. Quite recently Josh
Poimboeuf has pointed out that live patching, kprobes and BPF would
benefit from resolving some part of the disambiguation as well but for
other reasons. The function granularity KASLR (fgkaslr) patches were
mentioned but Joe Lawrence has clarified this effort has been dropped
with no clear solution in sight [1].
In the meantime removing module license tags from code which could
never be modules is welcomed for both objectives mentioned above. Some
developers have also welcomed these changes as it has helped clarify
when a module was never possible and they forgot to clean this up, and
so you'll see quite a bit of Nick's patches in other pull requests for
this merge window. I just picked up the stragglers after rc3. LWN has
good coverage on the motivation behind this work [2] and the typical
cross-tree issues he ran into along the way. The only concrete blocker
issue he ran into was that we should not remove the MODULE_LICENSE()
tags from files which have no SPDX tags yet, even if they can never be
modules. Nick ended up giving up on his efforts due to having to do
this vetting and backlash he ran into from folks who really did *not
understand* the core of the issue nor were providing any alternative /
guidance. I've gone through his changes and dropped the patches which
dropped the module license tags where an SPDX license tag was missing,
it only consisted of 11 drivers. To see if a pull request deals with a
file which lacks SPDX tags you can just use:
./scripts/spdxcheck.py -f \
$(git diff --name-only commid-id | xargs echo)
You'll see a core module file in this pull request for the above, but
that's not related to his changes. WE just need to add the SPDX
license tag for the kernel/module/kmod.c file in the future but it
demonstrates the effectiveness of the script.
Most of Nick's changes were spread out through different trees, and I
just picked up the slack after rc3 for the last kernel was out. Those
changes have been in linux-next for over two weeks.
The cleanups, debug code I added and final fix I added for modules
were motivated by David Hildenbrand's report of boot failing on a
systems with over 400 CPUs when KASAN was enabled due to running out
of virtual memory space. Although the functional change only consists
of 3 lines in the patch "module: avoid allocation if module is already
present and ready", proving that this was the best we can do on the
modules side took quite a bit of effort and new debug code.
The initial cleanups I did on the modules side of things has been in
linux-next since around rc3 of the last kernel, the actual final fix
for and debug code however have only been in linux-next for about a
week or so but I think it is worth getting that code in for this merge
window as it does help fix / prove / evaluate the issues reported with
larger number of CPUs. Userspace is not yet fixed as it is taking a
bit of time for folks to understand the crux of the issue and find a
proper resolution. Worst come to worst, I have a kludge-of-concept [3]
of how to make kernel_read*() calls for modules unique / converge
them, but I'm currently inclined to just see if userspace can fix this
instead"

commit e050e3f0a7 ("perf: Fix broken interrupt rate throttling")
introduces a change in throttling threshold judgment. Before this,
compare hwc->interrupts and max_samples_per_tick, then increase
hwc->interrupts by 1, but this commit reverses order of these two
behaviors, causing the semantics of max_samples_per_tick to change.
In literal sense of "max_samples_per_tick", if hwc->interrupts ==
max_samples_per_tick, it should not be throttled, therefore, the judgment
condition should be changed to "hwc->interrupts > max_samples_per_tick".
In fact, this may cause the hardlockup to fail, The minimum value of
max_samples_per_tick may be 1, in this case, the return value of
__perf_event_account_interrupt function is 1.
As a result, nmi_watchdog gets throttled, which would stop PMU (Use x86
architecture as an example, see x86_pmu_handle_irq).

The same task check in perf_event_set_output has some potential issues
for some usages.
For the current perf code, there is a problem if using of
perf_event_open() to have multiple samples getting into the same mmap’d
memory when they are both attached to the same process.
https://lore.kernel.org/all/92645262-D319-4068-9C44-2409EF44888E@gmail.com/
Because the event->ctx is not ready when the perf_event_set_output() is
invoked in the perf_event_open().
Besides the above issue, before the commit bd27568117 ("perf: Rewrite
core context handling"), perf record can errors out when sampling with
a hardware event and a software event as below.
$ perf record -e cycles,dummy --per-thread ls
failed to mmap with 22 (Invalid argument)
That's because that prior to the commit a hardware event and a software
event are from different task context.
The problem should be a long time issue since commit c3f00c7027
("perk: Separate find_get_context() from event initialization").
The task struct is stored in the event->hw.target for each per-thread
event. It is a more reliable way to determine whether two events are
attached to the same task.
The event->hw.target was also introduced several years ago by the
commit 50f16a8bf9 ("perf: Remove type specific target pointers"). It
can not only be used to fix the issue with the current code, but also
back port to fix the issues with an older kernel.
Note: The event->hw.target was introduced later than commit
c3f00c7027. The patch may cannot be applied between the commit
c3f00c7027 and commit 50f16a8bf9. Anybody that wants to back-port
this at that period may have to find other solutions.

Time readers rely on perf_event_context->[time|timestamp|timeoffset] to get

commit 267fb27352 ("perf: Reduce stack usage of perf_output_begin()")
use on-stack struct perf_sample_data of the caller function.
However, perf_event_bpf_output uses incorrect parameter to convert
small-sized data (struct perf_bpf_event) into large-sized data
(struct perf_sample_data), which causes memory overwriting occurs in
__perf_event_header__init_id.

Syzkaller triggered a WARN in put_pmu_ctx().
WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 2245 at kernel/events/core.c:4925 put_pmu_ctx+0x1f0/0x278
This is because there is no locking around the access of "if
(!epc->ctx)" in find_get_pmu_context() and when it is set to NULL in
put_pmu_ctx().
The decrement of the reference count in put_pmu_ctx() also happens
outside of the spinlock, leading to the possibility of this order of
events, and the context being cleared in put_pmu_ctx(), after its
refcount is non zero:
CPU0 CPU1
find_get_pmu_context()
if (!epc->ctx) == false
put_pmu_ctx()
atomic_dec_and_test(&epc->refcount) == true
epc->refcount == 0
atomic_inc(&epc->refcount);
epc->refcount == 1
list_del_init(&epc->pmu_ctx_entry);
epc->ctx = NULL;
Another issue is that WARN_ON for no active PMU events in put_pmu_ctx()
is outside of the lock. If the perf_event_pmu_context is an embedded
one, even after clearing it, it won't be deleted and can be re-used. So
the warning can trigger. For this reason it also needs to be moved
inside the lock.
The above warning is very quick to trigger on Arm by running these two
commands at the same time:
while true; do perf record -- ls; done
while true; do perf record -- ls; done

The perf_prepare_sample() function sets the perf_sample_data according
to the attr->sample_type before copying it to the ring buffer. But BPF
also wants to access the sample data so it needs to prepare the sample
even before the regular path.
That means perf_prepare_sample() can be called more than once. Set
the data->sample_flags consistently so that it can indicate which fields
are set already and skip them if sets.
Also update the filtered_sample_type to have the dependent flags to
reduce the number of branches.

The perf sample data can be divided into parts. The event->header_size
and event->id_header_size keep the static part of the sample data which
is determined by the sample_type flags.
But other parts like CALLCHAIN and BRANCH_STACK are changing dynamically
so it needs to see the actual data. In preparation of handling repeated
calls for perf_prepare_sample(), it can save the dynamic size to the
perf sample data to avoid the duplicate work.

We encounter perf warnings when using cgroup events like:

The above two warnings are not complete here since I remove other
unimportant information. The problem is caused by the perf cgroup
events tracking:
CPU0 CPU1
perf_event_open()
perf_event_alloc()
account_event()
account_event_cpu()
atomic_inc(perf_cgroup_events)
__perf_event_task_sched_out()
if (atomic_read(perf_cgroup_events))
perf_cgroup_switch()
// kernel/events/core.c:849
WARN_ON_ONCE(cpuctx->ctx.nr_cgroups == 0)
if (READ_ONCE(cpuctx->cgrp) == cgrp) // false
return
perf_ctx_lock()
ctx_sched_out()
cpuctx->cgrp = cgrp
ctx_sched_in()
perf_cgroup_set_timestamp()
// kernel/events/core.c:829
WARN_ON_ONCE(!ctx->nr_cgroups)
perf_ctx_unlock()
perf_install_in_context()
cpu_function_call()
__perf_install_in_context()
add_event_to_ctx()
list_add_event()
perf_cgroup_event_enable()
ctx->nr_cgroups++
cpuctx->cgrp = X
We can see from above that we wrongly use percpu atomic perf_cgroup_events
to check if we need to perf_cgroup_switch(), which should only be used
when we know this CPU has cgroup events enabled.
The commit bd27568117 ("perf: Rewrite core context handling") change
to have only one context per-CPU, so we can just use cpuctx->cgrp to
check if this CPU has cgroup events enabled.
So percpu atomic perf_cgroup_events is not needed.
