psi_dequeue() in for blocked task expects psi_sched_switch() to clear
the TSK_.*RUNNING PSI flags and set the TSK_IOWAIT flags however
psi_sched_switch() uses "!task_on_rq_queued(prev)" to detect if the task
is blocked or still runnable which is no longer true with DELAY_DEQUEUE
since a blocking task can be left queued on the runqueue.
This can lead to PSI splats similar to:
psi: inconsistent task state! task=... cpu=... psi_flags=4 clear=0 set=4
when the task is requeued since the TSK_RUNNING flag was not cleared
when the task was blocked.
Explicitly communicate that the task was blocked to psi_sched_switch()
even if it was delayed and is still on the runqueue.

Commit 2e0199df25 ("sched/fair: Prepare exit/cleanup paths for delayed_dequeue")
and its follow up fixes try to deal with a rather unfortunate
situation where is task is enqueued in a new class, even though it
shouldn't have been. Mostly because the existing ->switched_to/from()
hooks are in the wrong place for this case.
This all led to Paul being able to trigger failures at something like
once per 10k CPU hours of RCU torture.
For now, do the ugly thing and move the code to the right place by
ignoring the switch hooks.
Note: Clean up the whole sched_class::switch*_{to,from}() thing.

With KASAN and PREEMPT_RT enabled, calling task_work_add() in
task_tick_mm_cid() may cause the following splat.
[ 63.696416] BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/spinlock_rt.c:48
[ 63.696416] in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 1, non_block: 0, pid: 610, name: modprobe
[ 63.696416] preempt_count: 10001, expected: 0
[ 63.696416] RCU nest depth: 1, expected: 1
This problem is caused by the following call trace.
sched_tick() [ acquire rq->__lock ]
-> task_tick_mm_cid()
-> task_work_add()
-> __kasan_record_aux_stack()
-> kasan_save_stack()

-> get_page_from_freelist()
-> rmqueue()
-> rmqueue_pcplist()
-> __rmqueue_pcplist()
-> rmqueue_bulk()
-> rt_spin_lock()
The rq lock is a raw_spinlock_t. We can't sleep while holding
it. IOW, we can't call alloc_pages() in stack_depot_save_flags().
The task_tick_mm_cid() function with its task_work_add() call was
introduced by commit 223baf9d17 ("sched: Fix performance regression
introduced by mm_cid") in v6.4 kernel.
Fortunately, there is a kasan_record_aux_stack_noalloc() variant that
calls stack_depot_save_flags() while not allowing it to allocate
new pages. To allow task_tick_mm_cid() to use task_work without
page allocation, a new TWAF_NO_ALLOC flag is added to enable calling
kasan_record_aux_stack_noalloc() instead of kasan_record_aux_stack()
if set. The task_tick_mm_cid() function is modified to add this new flag.
The possible downside is the missing stack trace in a KASAN report due
to new page allocation required when task_work_add_noallloc() is called
which should be rare.

Commit 85e511df3c ("sched/eevdf: Allow shorter slices to wakeup-preempt")
introduced a mechanism that a wakee with shorter slice could preempt
the current running task. It also lower the bar for the current task
to be preempted, by checking the rq->nr_running instead of cfs_rq->nr_running
when the current task has ran out of time slice. But there is a scenario
that is problematic. Say, if there is 1 cfs task and 1 rt task, before
85e511df3c, update_deadline() will not trigger a reschedule, and after
85e511df3c, since rq->nr_running is 2 and resched is true, a resched_curr()
would happen.
Some workloads (like the hackbench reported by lkp) do not like
over-scheduling. We can see that the preemption rate has been
increased by 2.2%:
1.654e+08 +2.2% 1.69e+08 hackbench.time.involuntary_context_switches
Restore its previous check criterion.

The enable path uses three big locks - scx_fork_rwsem, scx_cgroup_rwsem and
cpus_read_lock. Currently, the locks are grabbed together which is prone to
locking order problems.
For example, currently, there is a possible deadlock involving
scx_fork_rwsem and cpus_read_lock. cpus_read_lock has to nest inside
scx_fork_rwsem due to locking order existing in other subsystems. However,
there exists a dependency in the other direction during hotplug if hotplug
needs to fork a new task, which happens in some cases. This leads to the
following deadlock:
scx_ops_enable() hotplug
percpu_down_write(&cpu_hotplug_lock)
percpu_down_write(&scx_fork_rwsem)
block on cpu_hotplug_lock
kthread_create() waits for kthreadd
kthreadd blocks on scx_fork_rwsem
Note that this doesn't trigger lockdep because the hotplug side dependency
bounces through kthreadd.
With the preceding scx_cgroup_enabled change, this can be solved by
decoupling cpus_read_lock, which is needed for static_key manipulations,
from the other two locks.
- Move the first block of static_key manipulations outside of scx_fork_rwsem
and scx_cgroup_rwsem. This is now safe with the preceding
scx_cgroup_enabled change.
- Drop scx_cgroup_rwsem and scx_fork_rwsem between the two task iteration
blocks so that __scx_ops_enabled static_key enabling is outside the two
rwsems.

The disable path uses three big locks - scx_fork_rwsem, scx_cgroup_rwsem and
cpus_read_lock. Currently, the locks are grabbed together which is prone to
locking order problems. With the preceding scx_cgroup_enabled change, we can
decouple them:
- As cgroup disabling no longer requires modifying a static_key which
requires cpus_read_lock(), no need to grab cpus_read_lock() before
grabbing scx_cgroup_rwsem.
- cgroup can now be independently disabled before tasks are moved back to
the fair class.
Relocate scx_cgroup_exit() invocation before scx_fork_rwsem is grabbed, drop
now unnecessary cpus_read_lock() and move static_key operations out of
scx_fork_rwsem. This decouples all three locks in the disable path.

If the BPF scheduler does not implement ops.cgroup_init(), scx_tg_online()
didn't set SCX_TG_INITED which meant that ops.cgroup_exit(), even if
implemented, won't be called from scx_tg_offline(). This is because
SCX_HAS_OP(cgroupt_init) is used to test both whether SCX cgroup operations
are enabled and ops.cgroup_init() exists.
Fix it by introducing a separate bool scx_cgroup_enabled to gate cgroup
operations and use SCX_HAS_OP(cgroup_init) only to test whether
ops.cgroup_init() exists. Make all cgroup operations consistently use
scx_cgroup_enabled to test whether cgroup operations are enabled.
scx_cgroup_enabled is added instead of using scx_enabled() to ease planned
locking updates.

scx_ops_init_task() and the follow-up scx_ops_enable_task() in the fork path
were gated by scx_enabled() test and thus __scx_ops_enabled had to be turned
on before the first scx_ops_init_task() loop in scx_ops_enable(). However,
if an external entity causes sched_class switch before the loop is complete,
tasks which are not initialized could be switched to SCX.
The following can be reproduced by running a program which keeps toggling a

scx_ops_enable() has two task iteration loops. The first one calls
scx_ops_init_task() on every task and the latter switches the eligible ones
into SCX. The first loop left the tasks in SCX_TASK_INIT state and then the
second loop switched it into READY before switching the task into SCX.
The distinction between INIT and READY is only meaningful in the fork path
where it's used to tell whether the task finished forking so that we can
tell ops.exit_task() accordingly. Leaving task in INIT state between the two
loops is incosistent with the fork path and incorrect. The following can be
triggered by running a program which keeps toggling a task between
SCHED_OTHER and SCHED_SCX while enabling a task:

scx_ops_enable() used preempt_disable() around the task iteration loop to
switch tasks into SCX to guarantee forward progress of the task which is
running scx_ops_enable(). However, in the gap between setting
__scx_ops_enabled and preeempt_disable(), an external entity can put tasks
including the enabling one into SCX prematurely, which can lead to
malfunctions including stalls.
The bypass mode can wrap the entire enabling operation and guarantee forward
progress no matter what the BPF scheduler does. Use the bypass mode instead
to guarantee forward progress while enabling.
While at it, release and regrab scx_tasks_lock between the two task
iteration locks in scx_ops_enable() for clarity as there is no reason to
keep holding the lock between them.

check_hotplug_seq() is used to detect CPU hotplug event which occurred while
the BPF scheduler is being loaded so that initialization can be retried if
CPU hotplug events take place before the CPU hotplug callbacks are online.
As such, the best place to call it is in the same cpu_read_lock() section
that enables the CPU hotplug ops. Currently, it is called in the next
cpus_read_lock() block in scx_ops_enable(). The side effect of this
placement is a small window in which hotplug sequence detection can trigger
unnecessarily, which isn't critical.
Move check_hotplug_seq() invocation to the same cpus_read_lock() block as
the hotplug operation enablement to close the window and get the invocation
out of the way for planned locking updates.

While bypassing, tasks are scheduled in FIFO order which favors tasks that
hog CPUs. This can slow down e.g. unloading of the BPF scheduler. While

In the bypass mode, the global DSQ is used to schedule all tasks in simple
FIFO order. All tasks are queued into the global DSQ and all CPUs try to
execute tasks from it. This creates a lot of cross-node cacheline accesses
and scheduling across the node boundaries, and can lead to live-lock
conditions where the system takes tens of minutes to disable the BPF
scheduler while executing in the bypass mode.
Split the global DSQ per NUMA node. Each node has its own global DSQ. When a
task is dispatched to SCX_DSQ_GLOBAL, it's put into the global DSQ local to
the task's CPU and all CPUs in a node only consume its node-local global
DSQ.
This resolves a livelock condition which could be reliably triggered on an
2x EPYC 7642 system by running `stress-ng --race-sched 1024` together with
`stress-ng --workload 80 --workload-threads 10` while repeatedly enabling
and disabling a SCX scheduler.

SCX_DSQ_GLOBAL is special in that it can't be used as a priority queue and
is consumed implicitly, but all BPF DSQ related kfuncs could be used on it.
SCX_DSQ_GLOBAL will be split per-node for scalability and those operations
won't make sense anymore. Disallow SCX_DSQ_GLOBAL on scx_bpf_consume(),
scx_bpf_dsq_nr_queued() and bpf_iter_scx_dsq_new(). This means that
SCX_DSQ_GLOBAL can only be used as a dispatch target from BPF schedulers.
With scx_flatcg, which was using SCX_DSQ_GLOBAL as the fallback DSQ,
updated, this shouldn't affect any schedulers.
This leaves find_dsq_for_dispatch() the only user of find_non_local_dsq().
Open code and remove find_non_local_dsq().

This reverts commit fb97d2eb54.
The logging was questionable to begin with, but it seems to actively
deadlock on the task lock.
"On second thought, let's not log core dump failures. 'Tis a silly place"
because if you can't tell your core dump is truncated, maybe you should
just fix your debugger instead of adding bugs to the kernel.

- uprobes: make trace_uprobe->nhit counter a per-CPU one
This makes uprobe event's hit counter per-CPU for improving
scalability on multi-core environment.
- kprobes: Remove obsoleted declaration for init_test_probes
Remove unused init_test_probes() from header.
- Raw tracepoint probe supports raw tracepoint events on modules.
The tracepoint events using fprobe were introduced in v6.5, but
tracepoints can be compiled in modules. This supports such a case.
This includes the following improvements.
. tracepoint: add a function for iterating over all tracepoints in
all modules.
. tracepoint: Add a function for iterating over tracepoints in a
module.
. tracing/fprobe: Support raw tracepoint events on modules.
. tracing/fprobe: Support raw tracepoints on future loaded modules.
This allows user to add tracepoint events on modules which is
not loaded yet.
. selftests/tracing: Add a test for tracepoint events on modules.

Currently the Rust support is gated on not having MODVERSIONS enabled,
and as a result an "allmodconfig" build will disable Rust build tests.
While MODVERSIONS configurations are worth build testing, the feature is
not actually meaningful unless you run the result, and I'd rather get
build coverage of Rust than MODVERSIONS. So let's disable MODVERSIONS
for build testing until the Rust side clears up.

Support raw tracepoint events on future loaded (unloaded) modules.
This allows user to create raw tracepoint events which can be used from
module's __init functions.
Note: since the kernel does not have any information about the tracepoints
in the unloaded modules, fprobe events can not check whether the tracepoint
exists nor extend the BTF based arguments.

trace_uprobe->nhit counter is not incremented atomically, so its value
is questionable in when uprobe is hit on multiple CPUs simultaneously.
Also, doing this shared counter increment across many CPUs causes heavy
cache line bouncing, limiting uprobe/uretprobe performance scaling with
number of CPUs.
Solve both problems by making this a per-CPU counter.

retries done for RRS on non-Vendor ID reads (Bjorn Helgaas)
- Rename CRS Completion Status to RRS ('Request Retry Status') to
match PCIe r6.0 spec usage (Bjorn Helgaas)
- Clear LBMS bit after a manual link retrain so we don't try to
retrain a link when there's no downstream device anymore (Maciej W.
Rozycki)
- Revert to the original link speed after retraining fails instead of
leaving it restricted to 2.5GT/s, so a future device has a chance
to use higher speeds (Maciej W. Rozycki)
- Wait for each level of downstream bus, not just the first, to
become accessible before restoring devices on that bus (Ilpo
Järvinen)
- Add ARCH_PCI_DEV_GROUPS so s390 can add its own attribute_groups
without having to stomp on the core's pdev->dev.groups (Lukas
Wunner)
Driver binding:
- Export pcim_request_region(), a managed counterpart of
pci_request_region(), for use by drivers (Philipp Stanner)

IOMMU:

rebuild/etc) (Mariusz Tkaczyk)
- Add support for the ACPI _DSM PCIe SSD status LED management, which

As discussed during the distro-centric session within the sched_ext
Microconference at LPC 2024, introduce a sequence counter that is
incremented every time a BPF scheduler is loaded.
This feature can help distributions in diagnosing potential performance
regressions by identifying systems where users are running (or have ran)
custom BPF schedulers.
Example:
arighi@virtme-ng~> cat /sys/kernel/sched_ext/enable_seq
0
arighi@virtme-ng~> sudo scx_simple
local=1 global=0
^CEXIT: unregistered from user space
arighi@virtme-ng~> cat /sys/kernel/sched_ext/enable_seq
1
In this way user-space tools (such as Ubuntu's apport and similar) are
able to gather and include this information in bug reports.

Commit b5c58b2fdc ("dma-mapping: direct calls for dma-iommu") switched
to use direct calls to dma-iommu, but missed the dma_vmap_noncontiguous,
dma_vunmap_noncontiguous and dma_mmap_noncontiguous behavior keyed off the
presence of the alloc_noncontiguous method.
Fix this by removing the now unused alloc_noncontiguous and
free_noncontiguous methods and moving the vmapping and mmaping of the
noncontiguous allocations into the iommu code, as it is the only provider
of actually noncontiguous allocations.

- Merged v6.11-rc3 into trace/ring-buffer/core
The v6.10 ring buffer pull request was not made due to Mathieu Desnoyers
making a comment to the pull request. Mathieu and I resolved it on IRC,
but we did not let Linus know that it was resolved. Linus did not do the
pull thinking it still had some unresolved issues.
The ring buffer work for 6.12 was dependent on both this pull request as
well as the reserve_mem kernel command line option that was going upstream
through the memory management tree. The ring buffer repo was being used by
others so it could not be rebased. In order to continue the work, the
v6.11-rc3 branch was pulled in to get access to the reserve_mem work.
This has the 6.11 pull request that did not make it into 6.11, which was:
tracing/ring-buffer: Have persistent buffer across reboots
This allows for the tracing instance ring buffer to stay persistent across
reboots. The way this is done is by adding to the kernel command line:
trace_instance=boot_map@0x285400000:12M
This will reserve 12 megabytes at the address 0x285400000, and then map
the tracing instance "boot_map" ring buffer to that memory. This will
appear as a normal instance in the tracefs system:
/sys/kernel/tracing/instances/boot_map
A user could enable tracing in that instance, and on reboot or kernel
crash, if the memory is not wiped by the firmware, it will recreate the
trace in that instance. For example, if one was debugging a shutdown of a
kernel reboot:
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing
# echo function > instances/boot_map/current_tracer
# reboot
[..]
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing
# tail instances/boot_map/trace

On reboot, the buffer is examined to make sure it is valid. The validation
check even steps through every event to make sure the meta data of the
event is correct. If any test fails, it will simply reset the buffer, and
the buffer will be empty on boot.
The new changes for 6.12 are:
- Allow the tracing persistent boot buffer to use the "reserve_mem" option
Instead of having the admin find a physical address to store the persistent
buffer, which can be very tedious if they have to administrate several
different machines, allow them to use the "reserve_mem" option that will
find a location for them. It is not as reliable because of KASLR, as the
loading of the kernel in different locations can cause the memory
allocated to be inconsistent. Booting with "nokaslr" can make reserve_mem
more reliable.
- Have function graph tracer handle offsets from a previous boot.
The ring buffer output from a previous boot may have different addresses
due to kaslr. Have the function graph tracer handle these by using the
delta from the previous boot to the new boot address space.
- Only reset the saved meta offset when the buffer is started or reset
In the persistent memory meta data, it holds the previous address space
information, so that it can calculate the delta to have function tracing
work. But this gets updated after being read to hold the new address
space. But if the buffer isn't used for that boot, on reboot, the delta is
now calculated from the previous boot and not the boot that holds the data
in the ring buffer. This causes the functions not to be shown. Do not save
the address space information of the current kernel until it is being
recorded.
- Add a magic variable to test the valid meta data
Add a magic variable in the meta data that can also be used for
validation. The validator of the previous buffer doesn't need this magic
data, but it can be used if the meta data is changed by a new kernel, which
may have the same format that passes the validator but is used
differently. This magic number can also be used as a "versioning" of the
meta data.
- Align user space mapped ring buffer sub buffers to improve TLB entries
Linus mentioned that the mapped ring buffer sub buffers were misaligned
between the meta page and the sub-buffers, so that if the sub-buffers were
bigger than PAGE_SIZE, it wouldn't allow the TLB to use bigger entries.
- Add new kernel command line "traceoff" to disable tracing on boot for instances
If tracing is enabled for a boot instance, there needs a way to be able to
disable it on boot so that new events do not get entered into the ring
buffer and be mixed with events from a previous boot, as that can be
confusing.
- Allow trace_printk() to go to other instances
Currently, trace_printk() can only go to the top level instance. When
debugging with a persistent buffer, it is really useful to be able to add
trace_printk() to go to that buffer, so that you have access to them after
a crash.
- Do not use "bin_printk()" for traces to a boot instance
The bin_printk() saves only a pointer to the printk format in the ring
buffer, as the reader of the buffer can still have access to it. But this
is not the case if the buffer is from a previous boot. If the
trace_printk() is going to a "persistent" buffer, it will use the slower
version that writes the printk format into the buffer.
- Add command line option to allow trace_printk() to go to an instance
Allow the kernel command line to define which instance the trace_printk()
goes to, instead of forcing the admin to set it for every boot via the
tracefs options.
- Start a document that explains how to use tracefs to debug the kernel
- Add some more kernel selftests to test user mapped ring buffer
