cpuset,mm: update tasks' mems_allowed in time
Fix allocating page cache/slab object on the unallowed node when memory
spread is set by updating tasks' mems_allowed after its cpuset's mems is
changed.
In order to update tasks' mems_allowed in time, we must modify the code of
memory policy. Because the memory policy is applied in the process's
context originally. After applying this patch, one task directly
manipulates anothers mems_allowed, and we use alloc_lock in the
task_struct to protect mems_allowed and memory policy of the task.
But in the fast path, we didn't use lock to protect them, because adding a
lock may lead to performance regression. But if we don't add a lock,the
task might see no nodes when changing cpuset's mems_allowed to some
non-overlapping set. In order to avoid it, we set all new allowed nodes,
then clear newly disallowed ones.
[lee.schermerhorn@hp.com:
The rework of mpol_new() to extract the adjusting of the node mask to
apply cpuset and mpol flags "context" breaks set_mempolicy() and mbind()
with MPOL_PREFERRED and a NULL nodemask--i.e., explicit local
allocation. Fix this by adding the check for MPOL_PREFERRED and empty
node mask to mpol_new_mpolicy().
Remove the now unneeded 'nodes = NULL' from mpol_new().
Note that mpol_new_mempolicy() is always called with a non-NULL
'nodes' parameter now that it has been removed from mpol_new().
Therefore, we don't need to test nodes for NULL before testing it for
'empty'. However, just to be extra paranoid, add a VM_BUG_ON() to
verify this assumption.]
[lee.schermerhorn@hp.com:
I don't think the function name 'mpol_new_mempolicy' is descriptive
enough to differentiate it from mpol_new().
This function applies cpuset set context, usually constraining nodes
to those allowed by the cpuset. However, when the 'RELATIVE_NODES flag
is set, it also translates the nodes. So I settled on
'mpol_set_nodemask()', because the comment block for mpol_new() mentions
that we need to call this function to "set nodes".
Some additional minor line length, whitespace and typo cleanup.]

cgroup, kthread: close race window where new kthreads can be migrated to non-root cgroups
Creation of a kthread goes through a couple interlocked stages between
the kthread itself and its creator. Once the new kthread starts
running, it initializes itself and wakes up the creator. The creator
then can further configure the kthread and then let it start doing its
job by waking it up.
In this configuration-by-creator stage, the creator is the only one
that can wake it up but the kthread is visible to userland. When
altering the kthread's attributes from userland is allowed, this is
fine; however, for cases where CPU affinity is critical,
kthread_bind() is used to first disable affinity changes from userland
and then set the affinity. This also prevents the kthread from being
migrated into non-root cgroups as that can affect the CPU affinity and
many other things.
Unfortunately, the cgroup side of protection is racy. While the
PF_NO_SETAFFINITY flag prevents further migrations, userland can win
the race before the creator sets the flag with kthread_bind() and put
the kthread in a non-root cgroup, which can lead to all sorts of
problems including incorrect CPU affinity and starvation.
This bug got triggered by userland which periodically tries to migrate
all processes in the root cpuset cgroup to a non-root one. Per-cpu
workqueue workers got caught while being created and ended up with
incorrected CPU affinity breaking concurrency management and sometimes
stalling workqueue execution.
This patch adds task->no_cgroup_migration which disallows the task to
be migrated by userland. kthreadd starts with the flag set making
every child kthread start in the root cgroup with migration
disallowed. The flag is cleared after the kthread finishes
initialization by which time PF_NO_SETAFFINITY is set if the kthread
should stay in the root cgroup.
It'd be better to wait for the initialization instead of failing but I
couldn't think of a way of implementing that without adding either a
new PF flag, or sleeping and retrying from waiting side. Even if
userland depends on changing cgroup membership of a kthread, it either
has to be synchronized with kthread_create() or periodically repeat,
so it's unlikely that this would break anything.
v2: Switch to a simpler implementation using a new task_struct bit
field suggested by Oleg.

kthread: Don't use to_live_kthread() in kthread_[un]park()
Now that to_kthread() is always validm change kthread_park() and
kthread_unpark() to use it and kill to_live_kthread().
The conversion of kthread_unpark() is trivial. If KTHREAD_IS_PARKED is set
then the task has called complete(&self->parked) and there the function
cannot race against a concurrent kthread_stop() and exit.
kthread_park() is more tricky, because its semantics are not well
defined. It returns -ENOSYS if the thread exited but this can never happen
and as Roman pointed out kthread_park() can obviously block forever if it
would race with the exiting kthread.
The usage of kthread_park() in cpuhp code (cpu.c, smpboot.c, stop_machine.c)
is fine. It can never see an exiting/exited kthread, smpboot_destroy_threads()
clears *ht->store, smpboot_park_thread() checks it is not NULL under the same
smpboot_threads_lock. cpuhp_threads and cpu_stop_threads never exit, so other
callers are fine too.
But it has two more users:
- watchdog_park_threads():
The code is actually correct, get_online_cpus() ensures that
kthread_park() can't race with itself (note that kthread_park() can't
handle this race correctly), but it should not use kthread_park()
directly.
- drivers/gpu/drm/amd/scheduler/gpu_scheduler.c should not use
kthread_park() either.
kthread_park() must not be called after amd_sched_fini() which does
kthread_stop(), otherwise even to_live_kthread() is not safe because
task_struct can be already freed and sched->thread can point to nowhere.
The usage of kthread_park/unpark should either be restricted to core code
which is properly protected against the exit race or made more robust so it
is safe to use it in drivers.
To catch eventual exit issues, add a WARN_ON(PF_EXITING) for now.

kthread: Don't use to_live_kthread() in kthread_[un]park()
Now that to_kthread() is always validm change kthread_park() and
kthread_unpark() to use it and kill to_live_kthread().
The conversion of kthread_unpark() is trivial. If KTHREAD_IS_PARKED is set
then the task has called complete(&self->parked) and there the function
cannot race against a concurrent kthread_stop() and exit.
kthread_park() is more tricky, because its semantics are not well
defined. It returns -ENOSYS if the thread exited but this can never happen
and as Roman pointed out kthread_park() can obviously block forever if it
would race with the exiting kthread.
The usage of kthread_park() in cpuhp code (cpu.c, smpboot.c, stop_machine.c)
is fine. It can never see an exiting/exited kthread, smpboot_destroy_threads()
clears *ht->store, smpboot_park_thread() checks it is not NULL under the same
smpboot_threads_lock. cpuhp_threads and cpu_stop_threads never exit, so other
callers are fine too.
But it has two more users:
- watchdog_park_threads():
The code is actually correct, get_online_cpus() ensures that
kthread_park() can't race with itself (note that kthread_park() can't
handle this race correctly), but it should not use kthread_park()
directly.
- drivers/gpu/drm/amd/scheduler/gpu_scheduler.c should not use
kthread_park() either.
kthread_park() must not be called after amd_sched_fini() which does
kthread_stop(), otherwise even to_live_kthread() is not safe because
task_struct can be already freed and sched->thread can point to nowhere.
The usage of kthread_park/unpark should either be restricted to core code
which is properly protected against the exit race or made more robust so it
is safe to use it in drivers.
To catch eventual exit issues, add a WARN_ON(PF_EXITING) for now.

tracing, sched: LTTng instrumentation - scheduler
Instrument the scheduler activity (sched_switch, migration, wakeups,
wait for a task, signal delivery) and process/thread
creation/destruction (fork, exit, kthread stop). Actually, kthread
creation is not instrumented in this patch because it is architecture
dependent. It allows to connect tracers such as ftrace which detects
scheduling latencies, good/bad scheduler decisions. Tools like LTTng can
export this scheduler information along with instrumentation of the rest
of the kernel activity to perform post-mortem analysis on the scheduler
activity.
About the performance impact of tracepoints (which is comparable to
markers), even without immediate values optimizations, tests done by
Hideo Aoki on ia64 show no regression. His test case was using hackbench
on a kernel where scheduler instrumentation (about 5 events in code
scheduler code) was added. See the "Tracepoints" patch header for
performance result detail.
Changelog :
- Change instrumentation location and parameter to match ftrace
instrumentation, previously done with kernel markers.

cgroup, kthread: close race window where new kthreads can be migrated to non-root cgroups
Creation of a kthread goes through a couple interlocked stages between
the kthread itself and its creator. Once the new kthread starts
running, it initializes itself and wakes up the creator. The creator
then can further configure the kthread and then let it start doing its
job by waking it up.
In this configuration-by-creator stage, the creator is the only one
that can wake it up but the kthread is visible to userland. When
altering the kthread's attributes from userland is allowed, this is
fine; however, for cases where CPU affinity is critical,
kthread_bind() is used to first disable affinity changes from userland
and then set the affinity. This also prevents the kthread from being
migrated into non-root cgroups as that can affect the CPU affinity and
many other things.
Unfortunately, the cgroup side of protection is racy. While the
PF_NO_SETAFFINITY flag prevents further migrations, userland can win
the race before the creator sets the flag with kthread_bind() and put
the kthread in a non-root cgroup, which can lead to all sorts of
problems including incorrect CPU affinity and starvation.
This bug got triggered by userland which periodically tries to migrate
all processes in the root cpuset cgroup to a non-root one. Per-cpu
workqueue workers got caught while being created and ended up with
incorrected CPU affinity breaking concurrency management and sometimes
stalling workqueue execution.
This patch adds task->no_cgroup_migration which disallows the task to
be migrated by userland. kthreadd starts with the flag set making
every child kthread start in the root cgroup with migration
disallowed. The flag is cleared after the kthread finishes
initialization by which time PF_NO_SETAFFINITY is set if the kthread
should stay in the root cgroup.
It'd be better to wait for the initialization instead of failing but I
couldn't think of a way of implementing that without adding either a
new PF flag, or sleeping and retrying from waiting side. Even if
userland depends on changing cgroup membership of a kthread, it either
has to be synchronized with kthread_create() or periodically repeat,
so it's unlikely that this would break anything.
v2: Switch to a simpler implementation using a new task_struct bit
field suggested by Oleg.

kthread: add kthread_create_worker*()
Kthread workers are currently created using the classic kthread API,
namely kthread_run(). kthread_worker_fn() is passed as the @threadfn
parameter.
This patch defines kthread_create_worker() and
kthread_create_worker_on_cpu() functions that hide implementation details.
They enforce using kthread_worker_fn() for the main thread. But I doubt
that there are any plans to create any alternative. In fact, I think that
we do not want any alternative main thread because it would be hard to
support consistency with the rest of the kthread worker API.
The naming and function of kthread_create_worker() is inspired by the
workqueues API like the rest of the kthread worker API.
The kthread_create_worker_on_cpu() variant is motivated by the original
kthread_create_on_cpu(). Note that we need to bind per-CPU kthread
workers already when they are created. It makes the life easier.
kthread_bind() could not be used later for an already running worker.
This patch does _not_ convert existing kthread workers. The kthread
worker API need more improvements first, e.g. a function to destroy the
worker.
IMPORTANT:
kthread_create_worker_on_cpu() allows to use any format of the worker
name, in compare with kthread_create_on_cpu(). The good thing is that it
is more generic. The bad thing is that most users will need to pass the
cpu number in two parameters, e.g. kthread_create_worker_on_cpu(cpu,
"helper/%d", cpu).
To be honest, the main motivation was to avoid the need for an empty
va_list. The only legal way was to create a helper function that would be
called with an empty list. Other attempts caused compilation warnings or
even errors on different architectures.
There were also other alternatives, for example, using #define or
splitting __kthread_create_worker(). The used solution looked like the
least ugly.

kthread: add kthread_create_worker*()
Kthread workers are currently created using the classic kthread API,
namely kthread_run(). kthread_worker_fn() is passed as the @threadfn
parameter.
This patch defines kthread_create_worker() and
kthread_create_worker_on_cpu() functions that hide implementation details.
They enforce using kthread_worker_fn() for the main thread. But I doubt
that there are any plans to create any alternative. In fact, I think that
we do not want any alternative main thread because it would be hard to
support consistency with the rest of the kthread worker API.
The naming and function of kthread_create_worker() is inspired by the
workqueues API like the rest of the kthread worker API.
The kthread_create_worker_on_cpu() variant is motivated by the original
kthread_create_on_cpu(). Note that we need to bind per-CPU kthread
workers already when they are created. It makes the life easier.
kthread_bind() could not be used later for an already running worker.
This patch does _not_ convert existing kthread workers. The kthread
worker API need more improvements first, e.g. a function to destroy the
worker.
IMPORTANT:
kthread_create_worker_on_cpu() allows to use any format of the worker
name, in compare with kthread_create_on_cpu(). The good thing is that it
is more generic. The bad thing is that most users will need to pass the
cpu number in two parameters, e.g. kthread_create_worker_on_cpu(cpu,
"helper/%d", cpu).
To be honest, the main motivation was to avoid the need for an empty
va_list. The only legal way was to create a helper function that would be
called with an empty list. Other attempts caused compilation warnings or
even errors on different architectures.
There were also other alternatives, for example, using #define or
splitting __kthread_create_worker(). The used solution looked like the
least ugly.

kthread: allow to cancel kthread work
We are going to use kthread workers more widely and sometimes we will need
to make sure that the work is neither pending nor running.
This patch implements cancel_*_sync() operations as inspired by
workqueues. Well, we are synchronized against the other operations via
the worker lock, we use del_timer_sync() and a counter to count parallel
cancel operations. Therefore the implementation might be easier.
First, we check if a worker is assigned. If not, the work has newer been
queued after it was initialized.
Second, we take the worker lock. It must be the right one. The work must
not be assigned to another worker unless it is initialized in between.
Third, we try to cancel the timer when it exists. The timer is deleted
synchronously to make sure that the timer call back is not running. We
need to temporary release the worker->lock to avoid a possible deadlock
with the callback. In the meantime, we set work->canceling counter to
avoid any queuing.
Fourth, we try to remove the work from a worker list. It might be
the list of either normal or delayed works.
Fifth, if the work is running, we call kthread_flush_work(). It might
take an arbitrary time. We need to release the worker-lock again. In the
meantime, we again block any queuing by the canceling counter.
As already mentioned, the check for a pending kthread work is done under a
lock. In compare with workqueues, we do not need to fight for a single
PENDING bit to block other operations. Therefore we do not suffer from
the thundering storm problem and all parallel canceling jobs might use
kthread_flush_work(). Any queuing is blocked until the counter gets zero.

kthread: allow to cancel kthread work
We are going to use kthread workers more widely and sometimes we will need
to make sure that the work is neither pending nor running.
This patch implements cancel_*_sync() operations as inspired by
workqueues. Well, we are synchronized against the other operations via
the worker lock, we use del_timer_sync() and a counter to count parallel
cancel operations. Therefore the implementation might be easier.
First, we check if a worker is assigned. If not, the work has newer been
queued after it was initialized.
Second, we take the worker lock. It must be the right one. The work must
not be assigned to another worker unless it is initialized in between.
Third, we try to cancel the timer when it exists. The timer is deleted
synchronously to make sure that the timer call back is not running. We
need to temporary release the worker->lock to avoid a possible deadlock
with the callback. In the meantime, we set work->canceling counter to
avoid any queuing.
Fourth, we try to remove the work from a worker list. It might be
the list of either normal or delayed works.
Fifth, if the work is running, we call kthread_flush_work(). It might
take an arbitrary time. We need to release the worker-lock again. In the
meantime, we again block any queuing by the canceling counter.
As already mentioned, the check for a pending kthread work is done under a
lock. In compare with workqueues, we do not need to fight for a single
PENDING bit to block other operations. Therefore we do not suffer from
the thundering storm problem and all parallel canceling jobs might use
kthread_flush_work(). Any queuing is blocked until the counter gets zero.
