commit fe8c3623ab upstream.
After commit 30696378f6 ("pstore/ram: Do not treat empty buffers as
valid"), initialization would assume a prz was valid after seeing that
the buffer_size is zero (regardless of the buffer start position). This
unchecked start value means it could be outside the bounds of the buffer,
leading to future access panics when written to:
sysdump_panic_event+0x3b4/0x5b8
atomic_notifier_call_chain+0x54/0x90
panic+0x1c8/0x42c

persistent_ram_write+0x1a8/0x1b8
ramoops_pstore_write+0x198/0x1e8
pstore_console_write+0x94/0xe0
...
To avoid this, also check if the prz start is 0 during the initialization
phase. If not, the next prz sanity check case will discover it (start >
size) and zap the buffer back to a sane state.

[ Upstream commit 5239a89b06 ]
This reverts commit 76d62f24db.
So while priority inversion on the pmsg_lock is an occasional
problem that an rt_mutex would help with, in uses where logging
is writing to pmsg heavily from multiple threads, the pmsg_lock
can be heavily contended.
After this change landed, it was reported that cases where the
mutex locking overhead was commonly adding on the order of 10s
of usecs delay had suddenly jumped to ~msec delay with rtmutex.
It seems the slight differences in the locks under this level
of contention causes the normal mutexes to utilize the spinning
optimizations, while the rtmutexes end up in the sleeping
slowpath (which allows additional threads to pile on trying
to take the lock).
In this case, it devolves to a worse case senerio where the lock
acquisition and scheduling overhead dominates, and each thread
is waiting on the order of ~ms to do ~us of work.
Obviously, having tons of threads all contending on a single
lock for logging is non-optimal, so the proper fix is probably
reworking pstore pmsg to have per-cpu buffers so we don't have
contention.
Additionally, Steven Rostedt has provided some furhter
optimizations for rtmutexes that improves the rtmutex spinning
path, but at least in my testing, I still see the test tripping
into the sleeping path on rtmutexes while utilizing the spinning
path with mutexes.
But in the short term, lets revert the change to the rt_mutex
and go back to normal mutexes to avoid a potentially major
performance regression. And we can work on optimizations to both
rtmutexes and finer-grained locking for pstore pmsg in the
future.

If mem-type is specified in the device tree
it would end up overriding the record_size
field instead of populating mem_type.
As record_size is currently parsed after the
improper assignment with default size 0 it
continued to work as expected regardless of the
value found in the device tree.
Simply changing the target field of the struct
is enough to get mem-type working as expected.

[ Upstream commit 76d62f24db ]
Wei Wang reported seeing priority inversion caused latencies
caused by contention on pmsg_lock, and suggested it be switched
to a rt_mutex.
I was initially hesitant this would help, as the tasks in that
trace all seemed to be SCHED_NORMAL, so the benefit would be
limited to only nice boosting.
However, another similar issue was raised where the priority
inversion was seen did involve a blocked RT task so it is clear
this would be helpful in that case.

Call trace:
__memcpy+0x110/0x260
read_kcore+0x584/0x778
proc_reg_read+0xb4/0xe4
During early boot, memblock reserves the pages for the ramoops reserved
memory node in DT that would otherwise be part of the direct lowmem
mapping. Pstore's ram backend reuses those reserved pages to change the
memory type (writeback or non-cached) by passing the pages to vmap()
(see pfn_to_page() usage in persistent_ram_vmap() for more details) with
specific flags. When read_kcore() starts iterating over the vmalloc
region, it runs over the virtual address that vmap() returned for
ramoops. In aligned_vread() the virtual address is passed to
vmalloc_to_page() which returns the page struct for the reserved lowmem
area. That lowmem page is passed to kmap_atomic(), which effectively
calls page_to_virt() that assumes a lowmem page struct must be directly
accessible with __va() and friends. These pages are mapped via vmap()
though, and the lowmem mapping was never made, so accessing them via the
lowmem virtual address oopses like above.
Let's side-step this problem by passing VM_IOREMAP to vmap(). This will
tell vread() to not include the ramoops region in the kcore. Instead the
area will look like a bunch of zeros. The alternative is to teach kmap()
about vmalloc areas that intersect with lowmem. Presumably such a change
isn't a one-liner, and there isn't much interest in inspecting the
ramoops region in kcore files anyway, so the most expedient route is
taken for now.

commit 8126b1c731 upstream.
pstore_dump() is *always* invoked in atomic context (nowadays in an RCU
read-side critical section, before that under a spinlock).
It doesn't make sense to try to use semaphores here.
This is mostly a revert of commit ea84b580b9 ("pstore: Convert buf_lock
to semaphore"), except that two parts aren't restored back exactly as they
were:
- keep the lock initialization in pstore_register
- in efi_pstore_write(), always set the "block" flag to false
- omit "is_locked", that was unnecessary since
commit 959217c84c ("pstore: Actually give up during locking failure")
- fix the bailout message
The actual problem that the buggy commit was trying to address may have
been that the use of preemptible() in efi_pstore_write() was wrong - it
only looks at preempt_count() and the state of IRQs, but __rcu_read_lock()
doesn't touch either of those under CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU.
(Sidenote: CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU means that the scheduler can preempt tasks in
RCU read-side critical sections, but you're not allowed to actively
block/reschedule.)
Lockdep probably never caught the problem because it's very rare that you
actually hit the contended case, so lockdep always just sees the
down_trylock(), not the down_interruptible(), and so it can't tell that
there's a problem.

Note that printk() itself still uses locks because it tries to flush
the messages to the console immediately. Also the per-CPU temporary
buffers are still there because they prevent infinite recursion and
serialize backtraces from NMI. All this is going to change in the
future.
- kmsg_dump API rework and cleanup as a side effect of the logbuf_lock
removal.
- Make bstr_printf() aware that %pf and %pF formats could deference the
given pointer.
- Show also page flags by %pGp format.
- Clarify the documentation for plain pointer printing.
- Do not show no_hash_pointers warning multiple times.
- Update Senozhatsky email address.
- Some clean up.

There could be a scenario where we define some region
in normal memory and use them store to logs which is later
retrieved by bootloader during warm reset.
In this scenario, we wanted to treat this memory as normal
cacheable memory instead of default behaviour which
is an overhead. Making it cacheable could improve
performance.
This commit gives control to change mem_type from Device
tree, and also documents the value for normal memory.

Rather than storing the iterator information in the registered
kmsg_dumper structure, create a separate iterator structure. The
kmsg_dump_iter structure can reside on the stack of the caller, thus
allowing lockless use of the kmsg_dump functions.
Update code that accesses the kernel logs using the kmsg_dumper
structure to use the new kmsg_dump_iter structure. For kmsg_dumpers,
this also means adding a call to kmsg_dump_rewind() to initialize
the iterator.
All this is in preparation for removal of @logbuf_lock.

syzbot is hitting WARN_ON(pstore_sb != sb) at pstore_kill_sb() [1], for the
assumption that pstore_sb != NULL is wrong because pstore_fill_super() will
not assign pstore_sb = sb when new_inode() for d_make_root() returned NULL
(due to memory allocation fault injection).
Since mount_single() calls pstore_kill_sb() when pstore_fill_super()
failed, pstore_kill_sb() needs to be aware of such failure path.

The major update to this release is that there's a new arch config option called:
CONFIG_HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS. Currently, only x86_64 enables it.
All the ftrace callbacks now take a struct ftrace_regs instead of a struct
pt_regs. If the architecture has HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS enabled, then
the ftrace_regs will have enough information to read the arguments of the
function being traced, as well as access to the stack pointer. This way, if
a user (like live kernel patching) only cares about the arguments, then it
can avoid using the heavier weight "regs" callback, that puts in enough
information in the struct ftrace_regs to simulate a breakpoint exception
(needed for kprobes).
New config option that audits the timestamps of the ftrace ring buffer at
most every event recorded. The "check_buffer()" calls will conflict with
mainline, because I purposely added the check without including the fix that
it caught, which is in mainline. Running a kernel built from the commit of
the added check will trigger it.
Ftrace recursion protection has been cleaned up to move the protection to
the callback itself (this saves on an extra function call for those
callbacks).
Perf now handles its own RCU protection and does not depend on ftrace to do
it for it (saving on that extra function call).
New debug option to add "recursed_functions" file to tracefs that lists all
the places that triggered the recursion protection of the function tracer.
This will show where things need to be fixed as recursion slows down the
function tracer.
The eval enum mapping updates done at boot up are now offloaded to a work
queue, as it caused a noticeable pause on slow embedded boards.
Various clean ups and last minute fixes.

Now that the hd_struct always has a block device attached to it, there is

Additionally the field in hd_struct did not use proper serialization,

this problem also gets fixed.

In preparation to have arguments of a function passed to callbacks attached
to functions as default, change the default callback prototype to receive a
struct ftrace_regs as the forth parameter instead of a pt_regs.
For callbacks that set the FL_SAVE_REGS flag in their ftrace_ops flags, they
will now need to get the pt_regs via a ftrace_get_regs() helper call. If
this is called by a callback that their ftrace_ops did not have a
FL_SAVE_REGS flag set, it that helper function will return NULL.
This will allow the ftrace_regs to hold enough just to get the parameters
and stack pointer, but without the worry that callbacks may have a pt_regs
that is not completely filled.

If a ftrace callback does not supply its own recursion protection and
does not set the RECURSION_SAFE flag in its ftrace_ops, then ftrace will
make a helper trampoline to do so before calling the callback instead of
just calling the callback directly.
The default for ftrace_ops is going to change. It will expect that handlers
provide their own recursion protection, unless its ftrace_ops states
otherwise.

pstore/blk is similar to pstore/ram, but uses a block device as the
storage rather than persistent ram.
The pstore/blk backend solves two common use-cases that used to preclude
using pstore/ram:
- not all devices have a battery that could be used to persist
regular RAM across power failures.
- most embedded intelligent equipment have no persistent ram, which
increases costs, instead preferring cheaper solutions, like block
devices.
pstore/blk provides separate configurations for the end user and for the
block drivers. User configuration determines how pstore/blk operates, such
as record sizes, max kmsg dump reasons, etc. These can be set by Kconfig
and/or module parameters, but module parameter have priority over Kconfig.
Driver configuration covers all the details about the target block device,
such as total size of the device and how to perform read/write operations.
These are provided by block drivers, calling pstore_register_blkdev(),
including an optional panic_write callback used to bypass regular IO
APIs in an effort to avoid potentially destabilized kernel code during
a panic.

Implement a common set of APIs needed to support pstore storage zones,
based on how ramoops is designed. This will be used by pstore/blk with
the intention of migrating pstore/ram in the future.
