This code (CONFIG_LOCKDEP_CROSSRELEASE=y and CONFIG_LOCKDEP_COMPLETIONS=y),
while it found a number of old bugs initially, was also causing too many
false positives that caused people to disable lockdep - which is arguably
a worse overall outcome.
If we disable cross-release by default but keep the code upstream then
in practice the most likely outcome is that we'll allow the situation
to degrade gradually, by allowing entropy to introduce more and more
false positives, until it overwhelms maintenance capacity.
Another bad side effect was that people were trying to work around
the false positives by uglifying/complicating unrelated code. There's
a marked difference between annotating locking operations and
uglifying good code just due to bad lock debugging code ...
This gradual decrease in quality happened to a number of debugging
facilities in the kernel, and lockdep is pretty complex already,
so we cannot risk this outcome.
Either cross-release checking can be done right with no false positives,
or it should not be included in the upstream kernel.
( Note that it might make sense to maintain it out of tree and go through
the false positives every now and then and see whether new bugs were
introduced. )

When CONFIG_GENERIC_LOCKBEAK=y, locking structures grow an extra int ->break_lock
field which is used to implement raw_spin_is_contended() by setting the field
to 1 when waiting on a lock and clearing it to zero when holding a lock.
However, there are a few problems with this approach:
- There is a write-write race between a CPU successfully taking the lock
(and subsequently writing break_lock = 0) and a waiter waiting on
the lock (and subsequently writing break_lock = 1). This could result
in a contended lock being reported as uncontended and vice-versa.
- On machines with store buffers, nothing guarantees that the writes
to break_lock are visible to other CPUs at any particular time.
- READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE are not used, so the field is potentially
susceptible to harmful compiler optimisations,
Consequently, the usefulness of this field is unclear and we'd be better off
removing it and allowing architectures to implement raw_spin_is_contended() by
providing a definition of arch_spin_is_contended(), as they can when
CONFIG_GENERIC_LOCKBREAK=n.

Commit:
a8a217c221 ("locking/core: Remove {read,spin,write}_can_lock()")
removed the definition of raw_spin_can_lock(), causing the GENERIC_LOCKBREAK
spin_lock() routines to poll the ->break_lock field when waiting on a lock.
This has been reported to cause a deadlock during boot on s390, because
the ->break_lock field is also set by the waiters, and can potentially
remain set indefinitely if no other CPUs come in to take the lock after
it has been released.
This patch removes the explicit spinning on ->break_lock from the waiters,
instead relying on the outer trylock() operation to determine when the
lock is available.

The purpose of torture_runnable is to allow rcutorture and locktorture
to be started and stopped via sysfs when they are built into the kernel
(as in not compiled as loadable modules). However, the 0444 permissions
for both instances of torture_runnable prevent this use case from ever
being put into practice. Given that there have been no complaints
about this deficiency, it is reasonable to conclude that no one actually
makes use of this sysfs capability. The perf_runnable module parameter
for rcuperf is in the same situation.
This commit therefore removes both torture_runnable instances as well
as perf_runnable.

The stutter_wait() function repeatedly fetched stutter_pause_test, and
should really just fetch it once on each pass. The races should be
harmless, but why have the races? Also, the whole point of the value
"2" for stutter_pause_test is to get everyone to start at very nearly
the same time, but the value "2" was the first jiffy of the stutter
rather than the last jiffy of the stutter.

Currently have_rcu_nocb_mask is used to avoid double allocation of
rcu_nocb_mask during boot up. Due to different representation of
cpumask_var_t on different kernel config CPUMASK=y(or n) it was okay.
But now we have a helper cpumask_available(), which can be utilized
to check whether rcu_nocb_mask has been allocated or not without using
a variable.
Removing the variable also reduces vmlinux size.

If a task sleeps in a set of patched functions uninterruptedly, it could
block the whole transition indefinitely. Thus it may be useful to clear
its TIF_PATCH_PENDING to allow the process to finish.
Admin can do that now by writing to force sysfs attribute in livepatch
sysfs directory. TIF_PATCH_PENDING is then cleared for all tasks and the
transition can finish successfully.
Important note! Administrator should not use this feature without a
clearance from a patch distributor. It must be checked that by doing so
the consistency model guarantees are not violated. Removal (rmmod) of
patch modules is permanently disabled when the feature is used. It

Unlike running, the runnable part can't be directly propagated through
the hierarchy when we migrate a task. The main reason is that runnable
time can be shared with other sched_entities that stay on the rq and
this runnable time will also remain on prev cfs_rq and must not be
removed.
Instead, we can estimate what should be the new runnable of the prev
cfs_rq and check that this estimation stay in a possible range. The
prop_runnable_sum is a good estimation when adding runnable_sum but
fails most often when we remove it. Instead, we could use the formula
below instead:
gcfs_rq's runnable_sum = gcfs_rq->avg.load_sum / gcfs_rq->load.weight
which assumes that tasks are equally runnable which is not true but
easy to compute.
Beside these estimates, we have several simple rules that help us to filter
out wrong ones:
- ge->avg.runnable_sum <= than LOAD_AVG_MAX
- ge->avg.runnable_sum >= ge->avg.running_sum (ge->avg.util_sum << LOAD_AVG_MAX)
- ge->avg.runnable_sum can't increase when we detach a task
The effect of these fixes is better cgroups balancing.

inserting the wait entry at the head of the wait queue to the tail

Beyond a negative performance impact this change in behavior
theoretically also breaks wait queues which mix exclusive and

Geert Uytterhoeven reported a NFS oops, and pointed out that some of the
numbers were hashed and useless.
We could just turn them from '%p' into '%px', but those numbers are
really just legacy, and useless even when not hashed.
So just remove them entirely.

Commit 0515e5999a ("bpf: introduce BPF_PROG_TYPE_PERF_EVENT
program type") introduced the bpf_perf_event_data structure which
exports the pt_regs structure. This is OK for multiple architectures
but fail for s390 and arm64 which do not export pt_regs. Programs
using them, for example, the bpf selftest fail to compile on these
architectures.
For s390, exporting the pt_regs is not an option because s390 wants
to allow changes to it. For arm64, there is a user_pt_regs structure
that covers parts of the pt_regs structure for use by user space.
To solve the broken uapi for s390 and arm64, introduce an abstract
type for pt_regs and add an asm/bpf_perf_event.h file that concretes
the type. An asm-generic header file covers the architectures that
export pt_regs today.
The arch-specific enablement for s390 and arm64 follows in separate
commits.

Since the recent cpu/hotplug refactoring, workqueue_offline_cpu() is
guaranteed to run on the local cpu which is going offline.
This also fixes the following deadlock by removing work item

Live patching consistency model is of LEAVE_PATCHED_SET and
SWITCH_THREAD. This means that all tasks in the system have to be marked
one by one as safe to call a new patched function. Safe means when a
task is not (sleeping) in a set of patched functions. That is, no
patched function is on the task's stack. Another clearly safe place is
the boundary between kernel and userspace. The patching waits for all
tasks to get outside of the patched set or to cross the boundary. The
transition is completed afterwards.
The problem is that a task can block the transition for quite a long
time, if not forever. It could sleep in a set of patched functions, for
example. Luckily we can force the task to leave the set by sending it a
fake signal, that is a signal with no data in signal pending structures
(no handler, no sign of proper signal delivered). Suspend/freezer use
this to freeze the tasks as well. The task gets TIF_SIGPENDING set and
is woken up (if it has been sleeping in the kernel before) or kicked by
rescheduling IPI (if it was running on other CPU). This causes the task
to go to kernel/userspace boundary where the signal would be handled and
the task would be marked as safe in terms of live patching.
There are tasks which are not affected by this technique though. The
fake signal is not sent to kthreads. They should be handled differently.
They can be woken up so they leave the patched set and their
TIF_PATCH_PENDING can be cleared thanks to stack checking.
For the sake of completeness, if the task is in TASK_RUNNING state but
not currently running on some CPU it doesn't get the IPI, but it would
eventually handle the signal anyway. Second, if the task runs in the
kernel (in TASK_RUNNING state) it gets the IPI, but the signal is not
handled on return from the interrupt. It would be handled on return to
the userspace in the future when the fake signal is sent again. Stack
checking deals with these cases in a better way.
If the task was sleeping in a syscall it would be woken by our fake
signal, it would check if TIF_SIGPENDING is set (by calling
signal_pending() predicate) and return ERESTART* or EINTR. Syscalls with
ERESTART* return values are restarted in case of the fake signal (see
do_signal()). EINTR is propagated back to the userspace program. This
could disturb the program, but...
* each process dealing with signals should react accordingly to EINTR
return values.
* syscalls returning EINTR happen to be quite common situation in the
system even if no fake signal is sent.
* freezer sends the fake signal and does not deal with EINTR anyhow.
Thus EINTR values are returned when the system is resumed.
The very safe marking is done in architectures' "entry" on syscall and
interrupt/exception exit paths, and in a stack checking functions of
livepatch. TIF_PATCH_PENDING is cleared and the next
recalc_sigpending() drops TIF_SIGPENDING. In connection with this, also
call klp_update_patch_state() before do_signal(), so that
recalc_sigpending() in dequeue_signal() can clear TIF_PATCH_PENDING
immediately and thus prevent a double call of do_signal().
Note that the fake signal is not sent to stopped/traced tasks. Such task
prevents the patching to finish till it continues again (is not traced
anymore).
Last, sending the fake signal is not automatic. It is done only when
admin requests it by writing 1 to signal sysfs attribute in livepatch
sysfs directory.

The previous commit which made the operator precedence in
irq_matrix_available() explicit made the implicit brokenness explicitely
wrong. It was wrong in the original commit already. The overworked
maintainer did not notice it either when merging the patch.

Queued spinlocks are not used by DEC Alpha, and furthermore operations
such as READ_ONCE() and release/relaxed RMW atomics are being changed
to imply smp_read_barrier_depends(). This commit therefore removes the
now-redundant smp_read_barrier_depends() from queued_spin_lock_slowpath(),
and adjusts the comments accordingly.

Now that READ_ONCE() implies smp_read_barrier_depends(), the
get_xol_area() and get_trampoline_vaddr() no longer need their
smp_read_barrier_depends() calls, which this commit removes.
While we are here, convert the corresponding smp_wmb() to an
smp_store_release().
