Core & protocols
----------------
- Continue Netlink conversions to per-namespace RTNL lock
(IPv4 routing, routing rules, routing next hops, ARP ioctls).
- Continue extending the use of netdev instance locks. As a driver
opt-in protect queue operations and (in due course) ethtool
operations with the instance lock and not RTNL lock.
- Support collecting TCP timestamps (data submitted, sent, acked)
in BPF, allowing for transparent (to the application) and lower
overhead tracking of TCP RPC performance.
- Tweak existing networking Rx zero-copy infra to support zero-copy
Rx via io_uring.
- Optimize MPTCP performance in single subflow mode by 29%.
- Enable GRO on packets which went thru XDP CPU redirect (were queued
for processing on a different CPU). Improving TCP stream performance
up to 2x.
- Improve performance of contended connect() by 200% by searching
for an available 4-tuple under RCU rather than a spin lock.
Bring an additional 229% improvement by tweaking hash distribution.
- Avoid unconditionally touching sk_tsflags on RX, improving
performance under UDP flood by as much as 10%.
- Avoid skb_clone() dance in ping_rcv() to improve performance under
ping flood.
- Avoid FIB lookup in netfilter if socket is available, 20% perf win.
- Rework network device creation (in-kernel) API to more clearly
identify network namespaces and their roles.
There are up to 4 namespace roles but we used to have just 2 netns
pointer arguments, interpreted differently based on context.
- Use sysfs_break_active_protection() instead of trylock to avoid
deadlocks between unregistering objects and sysfs access.
- Add a new sysctl and sockopt for capping max retransmit timeout
in TCP.
- Support masking port and DSCP in routing rule matches.
- Support dumping IPv4 multicast addresses with RTM_GETMULTICAST.
- Support specifying at what time packet should be sent on AF_XDP
sockets.
- Expose TCP ULP diagnostic info (for TLS and MPTCP) to non-admin users.
- Add Netlink YAML spec for WiFi (nl80211) and conntrack.
- Introduce EXPORT_IPV6_MOD() and EXPORT_IPV6_MOD_GPL() for symbols
which only need to be exported when IPv6 support is built as a module.
- Age FDB entries based on Rx not Tx traffic in VxLAN, similar
to normal bridging.
- Allow users to specify source port range for GENEVE tunnels.
- netconsole: allow attaching kernel release, CPU ID and task name
to messages as metadata
Driver API
----------
- Continue rework / fixing of Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) across
the SW layers. Delegate the responsibilities to phylink where possible.
Improve its handling in phylib.
- Support symmetric OR-XOR RSS hashing algorithm.
- Support tracking and preserving IRQ affinity by NAPI itself.
- Support loopback mode speed selection for interface selftests.

Pull lsm updates from Paul Moore:
- Various minor updates to the LSM Rust bindings
Changes include marking trivial Rust bindings as inlines and comment
tweaks to better reflect the LSM hooks.
- Add LSM/SELinux access controls to io_uring_allowed()
Similar to the io_uring_disabled sysctl, add a LSM hook to
io_uring_allowed() to enable LSMs a simple way to enforce security
policy on the use of io_uring. This pull request includes SELinux
support for this new control using the io_uring/allowed permission.
- Remove an unused parameter from the security_perf_event_open() hook
The perf_event_attr struct parameter was not used by any currently
supported LSMs, remove it from the hook.
- Add an explicit MAINTAINERS entry for the credentials code
We've seen problems in the past where patches to the credentials code
sent by non-maintainers would often languish on the lists for
multiple months as there was no one explicitly tasked with the
responsibility of reviewing and/or merging credentials related code.
Considering that most of the code under security/ has a vested
interest in ensuring that the credentials code is well maintained,
I'm volunteering to look after the credentials code and Serge Hallyn
has also volunteered to step up as an official reviewer. I posted the
MAINTAINERS update as a RFC to LKML in hopes that someone else would
jump up with an "I'll do it!", but beyond Serge it was all crickets.
- Update Stephen Smalley's old email address to prevent confusion
This includes a corresponding update to the mailmap file.

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"These are dominated by cpufreq updates which in turn are dominated by
updates related to boost support in the core and drivers and
amd-pstate driver optimizations.
Apart from the above, there are some cpuidle updates including a
rework of the most recent idle intervals handling in the venerable
menu governor that leads to significant improvements in some
performance benchmarks, as the governor is now more likely to predict
a shorter idle duration in some cases, and there are updates of the
core device power management code, mostly related to system suspend
and resume, that should help to avoid potential issues arising when
the drivers of devices depending on one another want to use different
optimizations.
There is also a usual collection of assorted fixes and cleanups,
including removal of some unused code.

- Consolidate the VDSO storage
The VDSO data storage and data layout has been largely architecture
specific for historical reasons. That increases the maintenance effort
and causes inconsistencies over and over.
There is no real technical reason for architecture specific layouts and
implementations. The architecture specific details can easily be
integrated into a generic layout, which also reduces the amount of
duplicated code for managing the mappings.
Convert all architectures over to a unified layout and common mapping
infrastructure. This splits the VDSO data layout into subsystem
specific blocks, timekeeping, random and architecture parts, which
provides a better structure and allows to improve and update the
functionalities without conflict and interaction.
- Rework the timekeeping data storage
The current implementation is designed for exposing system timekeeping
accessors, which was good enough at the time when it was designed.
PTP and Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) change that as there are
requirements to expose independent PTP clocks, which are not related to
system timekeeping.
Replace the monolithic data storage by a structured layout, which
allows to add support for independent PTP clocks on top while reusing
both the data structures and the time accessor implementations.

- Fix a memory ordering issue in posix-timers
Posix-timer lookup is lockless and reevaluates the timer validity under
the timer lock, but the update which validates the timer is not
protected by the timer lock. That allows the store to be reordered
against the initialization stores, so that the lookup side can observe
a partially initialized timer. That's mostly a theoretical problem, but
incorrect nevertheless.
- Fix a long standing inconsistency of the coarse time getters
The coarse time getters read the base time of the current update cycle
without reading the actual hardware clock. NTP frequency adjustment can
set the base time backwards. The fine grained interfaces compensate
this by reading the clock and applying the new conversion factor, but
the coarse grained time getters use the base time directly. That allows
the user to observe time going backwards.
Cure it by always forwarding base time, when NTP changes the frequency
with an immediate step.
- Rework of posix-timer hashing
The posix-timer hash is not scalable and due to the CRIU timer restore
mechanism prone to massive contention on the global hash bucket lock.
Replace the global hash lock with a fine grained per bucket locking
scheme to address that.
- Rework the proc/$PID/timers interface.
/proc/$PID/timers is provided for CRIU to be able to restore a
timer. The printout happens with sighand lock held and interrupts
disabled. That's not required as this can be done with RCU protection
as well.
- Provide a sane mechanism for CRIU to restore a timer ID
CRIU restores timers by creating and deleting them until the kernel
internal per process ID counter reached the requested ID. That's
horribly slow for sparse timer IDs.
Provide a prctl() which allows CRIU to restore a timer with a given
ID. When enabled the ID pointer is used as input pointer to read the
requested ID from user space. When disabled, the normal allocation
scheme (next ID) is active as before. This is backwards compatible for
both kernel and user space.
- Make hrtimer_update_function() less expensive.
The sanity checks are valuable, but expensive for high frequency usage
in io/uring. Make the debug checks conditional and enable them only
when lockdep is enabled.
- Small updates, cleanups and improvements

- Support for hard indices on RISC-V. The hart index identifies a hart
(core) within a specific interrupt domain in RISC-V's Priviledged
Architecture.
- Rework of the RISC-V MSI driver.
This moves the driver over to the generic MSI library and solves the
affinity problem of unmaskable PCI/MSI controllers. Unmaskable PCI/MSI
controllers are prone to lose interrupts when the MSI message is
updated to change the affinity because the message write consists of
three 32-bit subsequent writes, which update address and data. As these
writes are non-atomic versus the device raising an interrupt, the
device can observe a half written update and issue an interrupt on the
wrong vector. This is mitiated by a carefully orchestrated step by step
update and the observation of an eventually pending interrupt on the
CPU which issues the update. The algorithm follows the well established
method of the X86 MSI driver.
- A new driver for the RISC-V Sophgo SG2042 MSI controller
- Overhaul of the Renesas RZQ2L driver.
Simplification of the probe function by using devm_*() mechanisms,
which avoid the endless list of error prone gotos in the failure paths.
- Expand the Renesas RZV2H driver to support RZ/G3E SoCs
- A workaround for Rockchip 3568002 erratum in the GIC-V3 driver to
ensure that the addressing is limited to the lower 32-bit of the

- The biggest change is the new option to automatically fail
the build on objtool warnings: CONFIG_OBJTOOL_WERROR.
While there are no currently known unfixed false positives
left, such an expansion in the severity of objtool warnings
inevitably creates a risk of build failures, so it's disabled by
default and depends on !COMPILE_TEST, so it shouldn't be enabled
on allyesconfig/allmodconfig builds and won't be forced on people
who just accept build-time defaults in 'make oldconfig'.
While the option is strongly recommended, only people who enable
it explicitly should see it.

Merge tag 'objtool-core-2025-03-22' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull objtool updates from Ingo Molnar:
- The biggest change is the new option to automatically fail the build
on objtool warnings: CONFIG_OBJTOOL_WERROR.
While there are no currently known unfixed false positives left, such
an expansion in the severity of objtool warnings inevitably creates a
risk of build failures, so it's disabled by default and depends on
!COMPILE_TEST, so it shouldn't be enabled on
allyesconfig/allmodconfig builds and won't be forced on people who
just accept build-time defaults in 'make oldconfig'.
While the option is strongly recommended, only people who enable it
explicitly should see it.
(Josh Poimboeuf)
- Disable branch profiling in noinstr code with a broad brush that
includes all of arch/x86/ and kernel/sched/. (Josh Poimboeuf)
- Create backup object files on objtool errors and print exact objtool
arguments to make failure analysis easier (Josh Poimboeuf)
- Improve noreturn handling (Josh Poimboeuf)

This pull request contains the following branches:
docs.2025.02.04a:
- Add broken-timing possibility to stallwarn.rst.
- Improve discussion of this_cpu_ptr(), add raw_cpu_ptr().
- Document self-propagating callbacks.
- Point call_srcu() to call_rcu() for detailed memory ordering.
- Add CONFIG_RCU_LAZY delays to call_rcu() kernel-doc header.
- Clarify RCU_LAZY and RCU_LAZY_DEFAULT_OFF help text.
- Remove references to old grace-period-wait primitives.
srcu.2025.02.05a:
- Introduce srcu_read_{un,}lock_fast(), which is similar to
srcu_read_{un,}lock_lite(): avoid smp_mb()s in lock and unlock at the
cost of calling synchronize_rcu() in synchronize_srcu(). Moreover, by
returning the percpu offset of the counter at srcu_read_lock_fast()
time, srcu_read_unlock_fast() can save extra pointer dereferencing,
which makes it faster than srcu_read_{un,}lock_lite().
srcu_read_{un,}lock_fast() are intended to replace
rcu_read_{un,}lock_trace() if possible.
torture.2025.02.05a:
- Add get_torture_init_jiffies() to return the start time of the test.
- Add a test_boost_holdoff module parameter to allow delaying boosting
tests when building rcutorture as built-in.
- Add grace period sequence number logging at the beginning and end of
failure/close-call results.
- Switch to hexadecimal for the expedited grace period sequence number
in the rcu_exp_grace_period trace point.
- Make cur_ops->format_gp_seqs take buffer length.
- Move RCU_TORTURE_TEST_{CHK_RDR_STATE,LOG_CPU} to bool.
- Complain when invalid SRCU reader_flavor is specified.
- Add FORCE_NEED_SRCU_NMI_SAFE Kconfig for testing, which forces SRCU
uses atomics even when percpu ops are NMI safe, and use the Kconfig
for SRCU lockdep testing.
misc.2025.03.04a:
- Split rcu_report_exp_cpu_mult() mask parameter and use for tracing.
- Remove READ_ONCE() for rdp->gpwrap access in __note_gp_changes().
- Fix get_state_synchronize_rcu_full() GP-start detection.
- Move RCU Tasks self-tests to core_initcall().
- Print segment lengths in show_rcu_nocb_gp_state().
- Make RCU watch ct_kernel_exit_state() warning.
- Flush console log from kernel_power_off().
- rcutorture: Allow a negative value for nfakewriters.
- rcu: Update TREE05.boot to test normal synchronize_rcu().
- rcu: Use _full() API to debug synchronize_rcu().
lazypreempt.2025.03.04a: Make RCU handle PREEMPT_LAZY better:
- Fix header guard for rcu_all_qs().
- rcu: Rename PREEMPT_AUTO to PREEMPT_LAZY.
- Update __cond_resched comment about RCU quiescent states.
- Handle unstable rdp in rcu_read_unlock_strict().
- Handle quiescent states for PREEMPT_RCU=n, PREEMPT_COUNT=y.
- osnoise: Provide quiescent states.
- Adjust rcutorture with possible PREEMPT_RCU=n && PREEMPT_COUNT=y
combination.

Pull slab updates from Vlastimil Babka:
- Move the TINY_RCU kvfree_rcu() implementation from RCU to SLAB
subsystem and cleanup its integration (Vlastimil Babka)
Following the move of the TREE_RCU batching kvfree_rcu()
implementation in 6.14, move also the simpler TINY_RCU variant.
Refactor the #ifdef guards so that the simple implementation is also
used with SLUB_TINY.
Remove the need for RCU to recognize fake callback function pointers
(__is_kvfree_rcu_offset()) when handling call_rcu() by implementing a
callback that calculates the object's address from the embedded
rcu_head address without knowing its offset.
- Improve kmalloc cache randomization in kvmalloc (GONG Ruiqi)
Due to an extra layer of function call, all kvmalloc() allocations
used the same set of random caches. Thanks to moving the kvmalloc()
implementation to slub.c, this is improved and randomization now
works for kvmalloc.
- Various improvements to debugging, testing and other cleanups (Hyesoo
Yu, Lilith Gkini, Uladzislau Rezki, Matthew Wilcox, Kevin Brodsky, Ye
Bin)

Merge tag 'vfs-6.15-rc1.pidfs' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull vfs pidfs updates from Christian Brauner:
- Allow retrieving exit information after a process has been reaped
through pidfds via the new PIDFD_INTO_EXIT extension for the
PIDFD_GET_INFO ioctl. Various tools need access to information about
a process/task even after it has already been reaped.
Pidfd polling allows waiting on either task exit or for a task to
have been reaped. The contract for PIDFD_INFO_EXIT is simply that
EPOLLHUP must be observed before exit information can be retrieved,
i.e., exit information is only provided once the task has been reaped
and then can be retrieved as long as the pidfd is open.
- Add PIDFD_SELF_{THREAD,THREAD_GROUP} sentinels allowing userspace to
forgo allocating a file descriptor for their own process. This is
useful in scenarios where users want to act on their own process
through pidfds and is akin to AT_FDCWD.
- Improve premature thread-group leader and subthread exec behavior
when polling on pidfds:
(1) During a multi-threaded exec by a subthread, i.e.,
non-thread-group leader thread, all other threads in the
thread-group including the thread-group leader are killed and the
struct pid of the thread-group leader will be taken over by the
subthread that called exec. IOW, two tasks change their TIDs.
(2) A premature thread-group leader exit means that the thread-group
leader exited before all of the other subthreads in the
thread-group have exited.
Both cases lead to inconsistencies for pidfd polling with
PIDFD_THREAD. Any caller that holds a PIDFD_THREAD pidfd to the
current thread-group leader may or may not see an exit notification
on the file descriptor depending on when poll is performed. If the
poll is performed before the exec of the subthread has concluded an
exit notification is generated for the old thread-group leader. If
the poll is performed after the exec of the subthread has concluded
no exit notification is generated for the old thread-group leader.
The correct behavior is to simply not generate an exit notification
on the struct pid of a subhthread exec because the struct pid is
taken over by the subthread and thus remains alive.
But this is difficult to handle because a thread-group may exit
premature as mentioned in (2). In that case an exit notification is
reliably generated but the subthreads may continue to run for an
indeterminate amount of time and thus also may exec at some point.
After this pull no exit notifications will be generated for a
PIDFD_THREAD pidfd for a thread-group leader until all subthreads
have been reaped. If a subthread should exec before no exit
notification will be generated until that task exits or it creates
subthreads and repeates the cycle.
This means an exit notification indicates the ability for the father
to reap the child.

Merge tag 'vfs-6.15-rc1.mount' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull vfs mount updates from Christian Brauner:
- Mount notifications
The day has come where we finally provide a new api to listen for
mount topology changes outside of /proc/<pid>/mountinfo. A mount
namespace file descriptor can be supplied and registered with
fanotify to listen for mount topology changes.
Currently notifications for mount, umount and moving mounts are
generated. The generated notification record contains the unique
mount id of the mount.
The listmount() and statmount() api can be used to query detailed
information about the mount using the received unique mount id.
This allows userspace to figure out exactly how the mount topology
changed without having to generating diffs of /proc/<pid>/mountinfo
in userspace.
- Support O_PATH file descriptors with FSCONFIG_SET_FD in the new mount
api
- Support detached mounts in overlayfs
Since last cycle we support specifying overlayfs layers via file
descriptors. However, we don't allow detached mounts which means
userspace cannot user file descriptors received via
open_tree(OPEN_TREE_CLONE) and fsmount() directly. They have to
attach them to a mount namespace via move_mount() first.
This is cumbersome and means they have to undo mounts via umount().
Allow them to directly use detached mounts.
- Allow to retrieve idmappings with statmount
Currently it isn't possible to figure out what idmapping has been
attached to an idmapped mount. Add an extension to statmount() which
allows to read the idmapping from the mount.
- Allow creating idmapped mounts from mounts that are already idmapped
So far it isn't possible to allow the creation of idmapped mounts
from already idmapped mounts as this has significant lifetime
implications. Make the creation of idmapped mounts atomic by allow to
pass struct mount_attr together with the open_tree_attr() system call
allowing to solve these issues without complicating VFS lookup in any
way.
The system call has in general the benefit that creating a detached
mount and applying mount attributes to it becomes an atomic operation
for userspace.
- Add a way to query statmount() for supported options
Allow userspace to query which mount information can be retrieved
through statmount().
- Allow superblock owners to force unmount

CONFIG_TRACE_BRANCH_PROFILING inserts a call to ftrace_likely_update()
for each use of likely() or unlikely(). That breaks noinstr rules if
the affected function is annotated as noinstr.
Disable branch profiling for files with noinstr functions. In addition
to some individual files, this also includes the entire arch/x86
subtree, as well as the kernel/entry, drivers/cpuidle, and drivers/idle
directories, all of which are noinstr-heavy.
Due to the nature of how sched binaries are built by combining multiple
.c files into one, branch profiling is disabled more broadly across the
sched code than would otherwise be needed.
This fixes many warnings like the following:
vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: do_syscall_64+0x40: call to ftrace_likely_update() leaves .noinstr.text section

Lei Chen raised an issue with CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE seeing time
inconsistencies.
Lei tracked down that this was being caused by the adjustment
tk->tkr_mono.xtime_nsec -= offset;
which is made to compensate for the unaccumulated cycles in offset when the
multiplicator is adjusted forward, so that the non-_COARSE clockids don't
see inconsistencies.
However, the _COARSE clockid getter functions use the adjusted xtime_nsec
value directly and do not compensate the negative offset via the
clocksource delta multiplied with the new multiplicator. In that case the
caller can observe time going backwards in consecutive calls.
By design, this negative adjustment should be fine, because the logic run
from timekeeping_adjust() is done after it accumulated approximately
multiplicator * interval_cycles
into xtime_nsec. The accumulated value is always larger then the
mult_adj * offset
value, which is subtracted from xtime_nsec. Both operations are done
together under the tk_core.lock, so the net change to xtime_nsec is always
always be positive.
However, do_adjtimex() calls into timekeeping_advance() as well, to to
apply the NTP frequency adjustment immediately. In this case,
timekeeping_advance() does not return early when the offset is smaller then
interval_cycles. In that case there is no time accumulated into
xtime_nsec. But the subsequent call into timekeeping_adjust(), which
modifies the multiplicator, subtracts from xtime_nsec to correct
for the new multiplicator.
Here because there was no accumulation, xtime_nsec becomes smaller than
before, which opens a window up to the next accumulation, where the _COARSE
clockid getters, which don't compensate for the offset, can observe the
inconsistency.
To fix this, rework the timekeeping_advance() logic so that when invoked
from do_adjtimex(), the time is immediately forwarded to accumulate also
the sub-interval portion into xtime. That means the remaining offset
becomes zero and the subsequent multiplier adjustment therefore does not
modify xtime_nsec.
There is another related inconsistency. If xtime is forwarded due to the
instantaneous multiplier adjustment, the NTP error, which was accumulated
with the previous setting, becomes meaningless.
Therefore clear the NTP error as well, after forwarding the clock for the
instantaneous multiplier update.

Setting pci_msi_ignore_mask inhibits the toggling of the mask bit for both
MSI and MSI-X entries globally, regardless of the IRQ chip they are using.
Only Xen sets the pci_msi_ignore_mask when routing physical interrupts over
event channels, to prevent PCI code from attempting to toggle the maskbit,
as it's Xen that controls the bit.
However, the pci_msi_ignore_mask being global will affect devices that use
MSI interrupts but are not routing those interrupts over event channels
(not using the Xen pIRQ chip). One example is devices behind a VMD PCI
bridge. In that scenario the VMD bridge configures MSI(-X) using the
normal IRQ chip (the pIRQ one in the Xen case), and devices behind the
bridge configure the MSI entries using indexes into the VMD bridge MSI
table. The VMD bridge then demultiplexes such interrupts and delivers to
the destination device(s). Having pci_msi_ignore_mask set in that scenario
prevents (un)masking of MSI entries for devices behind the VMD bridge.
Move the signaling of no entry masking into the MSI domain flags, as that
allows setting it on a per-domain basis. Set it for the Xen MSI domain
that uses the pIRQ chip, while leaving it unset for the rest of the
cases.
Remove pci_msi_ignore_mask at once, since it was only used by Xen code, and
with Xen dropping usage the variable is unneeded.
This fixes using devices behind a VMD bridge on Xen PV hardware domains.
Albeit Devices behind a VMD bridge are not known to Xen, that doesn't mean
Linux cannot use them. By inhibiting the usage of
VMD_FEAT_CAN_BYPASS_MSI_REMAP and the removal of the pci_msi_ignore_mask
bodge devices behind a VMD bridge do work fine when use from a Linux Xen
hardware domain. That's the whole point of the series.

Now that the rstat lock is being re-acquired on every CPU iteration in
cgroup_rstat_flush_locked(), having the initially acquire the lock is
unnecessary and unclear.
Inline cgroup_rstat_flush_locked() into cgroup_rstat_flush() and move
the lock/unlock calls to the beginning and ending of the loop body to
make the critical section obvious.
cgroup_rstat_flush_hold/release() do not make much sense with the lock
being dropped and reacquired internally. Since it has no external
callers, remove it and explicitly acquire the lock in
cgroup_base_stat_cputime_show() instead.
This leaves the code with a single flushing function,
cgroup_rstat_flush().

This is another attempt trying to make pidfd polling for multi-threaded
exec and premature thread-group leader exit consistent.
A quick recap of these two cases:
(1) During a multi-threaded exec by a subthread, i.e., non-thread-group
leader thread, all other threads in the thread-group including the
thread-group leader are killed and the struct pid of the
thread-group leader will be taken over by the subthread that called
exec. IOW, two tasks change their TIDs.
(2) A premature thread-group leader exit means that the thread-group
leader exited before all of the other subthreads in the thread-group
have exited.
Both cases lead to inconsistencies for pidfd polling with PIDFD_THREAD.
Any caller that holds a PIDFD_THREAD pidfd to the current thread-group
leader may or may not see an exit notification on the file descriptor
depending on when poll is performed. If the poll is performed before the
exec of the subthread has concluded an exit notification is generated
for the old thread-group leader. If the poll is performed after the exec
of the subthread has concluded no exit notification is generated for the
old thread-group leader.
The correct behavior would be to simply not generate an exit
notification on the struct pid of a subhthread exec because the struct
pid is taken over by the subthread and thus remains alive.
But this is difficult to handle because a thread-group may exit
prematurely as mentioned in (2). In that case an exit notification is
reliably generated but the subthreads may continue to run for an
indeterminate amount of time and thus also may exec at some point.
So far there was no way to distinguish between (1) and (2) internally.
This tiny series tries to address this problem by discarding
PIDFD_THREAD notification on premature thread-group leader exit.
If that works correctly then no exit notifications are generated for a
PIDFD_THREAD pidfd for a thread-group leader until all subthreads have
been reaped. If a subthread should exec aftewards no exit notification
will be generated until that task exits or it creates subthreads and
repeates the cycle.

All the big Linux distros enable CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG, because
the various features it provides help not just with kernel
development, but with system administration and user-space
software development as well.
Reflect this reality and enable this functionality

The scheduler has this special SCHED_WARN() facility that
depends on CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG.
Since CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG is getting removed, convert
SCHED_WARN() to WARN_ON_ONCE().
Note that the warning output isn't 100% equivalent:
#define SCHED_WARN_ON(x) WARN_ONCE(x, #x)
Because SCHED_WARN_ON() would output the 'x' condition
as well, while WARN_ONCE() will only show a backtrace.
Hopefully these are rare enough to not really matter.
If it does, we should probably introduce a new WARN_ON()
variant that outputs the condition in stringified form,
or improve WARN_ON() itself.

cgroup_rstat_flush_locked() grabs the irq safe cgroup_rstat_lock while
iterating all possible cpus. It only drops the lock if there is
scheduler or spin lock contention. If neither, then interrupts can be
disabled for a long time. On large machines this can disable interrupts
for a long enough time to drop network packets. On 400+ CPU machines
I've seen interrupt disabled for over 40 msec.
Prevent rstat from disabling interrupts while processing all possible
cpus. Instead drop and reacquire cgroup_rstat_lock for each cpu. This
approach was previously discussed in
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/ZBz%2FV5a7%2F6PZeM7S@slm.duckdns.org/,
though this was in the context of an non-irq rstat spin lock.
Benchmark this change with:
1) a single stat_reader process with 400 threads, each reading a test
memcg's memory.stat repeatedly for 10 seconds.
2) 400 memory hog processes running in the test memcg and repeatedly
charging memory until oom killed. Then they repeat charging and oom
killing.
v6.14-rc6 with CONFIG_IRQSOFF_TRACER with stat_reader and hogs, finds
interrupts are disabled by rstat for 45341 usec:

With this patch the CONFIG_IRQSOFF_TRACER doesn't find rstat to be the
longest holder. The longest irqs-off holder has irqs disabled for
4142 usec, a huge reduction from previous 45341 usec rstat finding.
Running stat_reader memory.stat reader for 10 seconds:
- without memory hogs: 9.84M accesses => 12.7M accesses
- with memory hogs: 9.46M accesses => 11.1M accesses
The throughput of memory.stat access improves.
The mode of memory.stat access latency after grouping by of 2 buckets:
- without memory hogs: 64 usec => 16 usec
- with memory hogs: 64 usec => 8 usec
The memory.stat latency improves.

When we currently create a pidfd we check that the task hasn't been
reaped right before we create the pidfd. But it is of course possible
that by the time we return the pidfd to userspace the task has already
been reaped since we don't check again after having created a dentry for
it.
This was fine until now because that race was meaningless. But now that
we provide PIDFD_INFO_EXIT it is a problem because it is possible that
the kernel returns a reaped pidfd and it depends on the race whether
PIDFD_INFO_EXIT information is available. This depends on if the task
gets reaped before or after a dentry has been attached to struct pid.
Make this consistent and only returned pidfds for reaped tasks if
PIDFD_INFO_EXIT information is available. This is done by performing
another check whether the task has been reaped right after we attached a
dentry to struct pid.
Since pidfs_exit() is called before struct pid's task linkage is removed
the case where the task got reaped but a dentry was already attached to
struct pid and exit information was recorded and published can be
handled correctly. In that case we do return a pidfd for a reaped task
like we would've before.
