* ptrace: PTRACE_DETACH should do flush_ptrace_hw_breakpoint(child)Oleg Nesterov2013-07-091-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change ptrace_detach() to call flush_ptrace_hw_breakpoint(child). This frees the slots for non-ptrace PERF_TYPE_BREAKPOINT users, and this ensures that the tracee won't be killed by SIGTRAP triggered by the active breakpoints. Test-case: unsigned long encode_dr7(int drnum, int enable, unsigned int type, unsigned int len) { unsigned long dr7; dr7 = ((len | type) & 0xf) << (DR_CONTROL_SHIFT + drnum * DR_CONTROL_SIZE); if (enable) dr7 |= (DR_GLOBAL_ENABLE << (drnum * DR_ENABLE_SIZE)); return dr7; } int write_dr(int pid, int dr, unsigned long val) { return ptrace(PTRACE_POKEUSER, pid, offsetof (struct user, u_debugreg[dr]), val); } void func(void) { } int main(void) { int pid, stat; unsigned long dr7; pid = fork(); if (!pid) { assert(ptrace(PTRACE_TRACEME, 0,0,0) == 0); kill(getpid(), SIGHUP); func(); return 0x13; } assert(pid == waitpid(-1, &stat, 0)); assert(WSTOPSIG(stat) == SIGHUP); assert(write_dr(pid, 0, (long)func) == 0); dr7 = encode_dr7(0, 1, DR_RW_EXECUTE, DR_LEN_1); assert(write_dr(pid, 7, dr7) == 0); assert(ptrace(PTRACE_DETACH, pid, 0,0) == 0); assert(pid == waitpid(-1, &stat, 0)); assert(stat == 0x1300); return 0; } Before this patch the child is killed after PTRACE_DETACH.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit bf26c018490c ("Prepare to fix racy accesses on task breakpoints"). The patch was fine but we can no longer race with SIGKILL after commit 9899d11f6544 ("ptrace: ensure arch_ptrace/ptrace_request can never race with SIGKILL"), the __TASK_TRACED tracee can't be woken up and ->ptrace_bps[] can't go away.

As Steve Grubb pointed out: "What we need is 1 PATH record that identifies the MQ. The other PATH records probably should not be there." Fix it to record the mq root as a parent, and flag it such that it should be hidden from view when the names are logged, since the root of the mq filesystem isn't terribly interesting. With this change, we get a single PATH record that looks more like this: type=PATH msg=audit(1368021604.836:484): item=0 name="test_mq" inode=16914 dev=00:0c mode=0100644 ouid=0 ogid=0 rdev=00:00 obj=unconfined_u:object_r:user_tmpfs_t:s0 In order to do this, a new audit_inode_parent_hidden() function is added. If we do it this way, then we avoid having the existing callers of audit_inode needing to do any sort of flag conversion if auditing is inactive.

But clock_was_set() which calls on_each_cpu() is called from softirq context to implement a delayed clock_was_set() for the timer interrupt handler. Though that almost never gets invoked. A recent change in the resume code uses the softirq based delayed clock_was_set to support Xens resume mechanism. linux-next contains a new warning which warns if smp_call_function_* is called from softirq context which gets triggered by that Xen change. Fix this by moving the delayed clock_was_set() call to a work context.

| * clocksource: Reselect clocksource when watchdog validated high-res capabilityThomas Gleixner2013-07-051-15/+42
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Up to commit 5d33b883a (clocksource: Always verify highres capability) we had no sanity check when selecting a clocksource, which prevented that a non highres capable clocksource is used when the system already switched to highres/nohz mode. The new sanity check works as Alex and Tim found out. It prevents the TSC from being used. This happens because on x86 the boot process looks like this: tsc_start_freqency_validation(TSC); clocksource_register(HPET); clocksource_done_booting(); clocksource_select() Selects HPET which is valid for high-res switch_to_highres(); clocksource_register(TSC); TSC is not selected, because it is not yet flagged as VALID_HIGH_RES clocksource_watchdog() Validates TSC for highres, but that does not make TSC the current clocksource. Before the sanity check was added, we installed TSC unvalidated which worked most of the time. If the TSC was really detected as unstable, then the unstable logic removed it and installed HPET again. The sanity check is correct and needed. So the watchdog needs to kick a reselection of the clocksource, when it qualifies TSC as a valid high res clocksource. To solve this, we mark the clocksource which got the flag CLOCK_SOURCE_VALID_FOR_HRES set by the watchdog with an new flag CLOCK_SOURCE_RESELECT and trigger the watchdog thread. The watchdog thread evaluates the flag and invokes clocksource_select() when set. To avoid that the clocksource_done_booting() code, which is about to install the first real clocksource anyway, needs to go through clocksource_select and tick_oneshot_notify() pointlessly, split out the clocksource_watchdog_kthread() list walk code and invoke the select/notify only when called from clocksource_watchdog_kthread(). So clocksource_done_booting() can utilize the same splitout code without the select/notify invocation and the clocksource_mutex unlock/relock dance.

However, there is one exception. When thread exiting, __exit_signal() turns over task's sum_shced_runtime to sig->sum_sched_runtime, but it doesn't stop signal->cputimer accounting. This inconsistency makes POSIX timer wake up too early. This patch fixes it.

| | * posix_timers: fix racy timer delta caching on task exitFrederic Weisbecker2013-07-031-11/+11

This is done from the following places: * When the task is reaped. We iterate through its list of posix cpu timers and store the remaining timer delta to the timer struct instead of the absolute value. (See posix_cpu_timers_exit() / posix_cpu_timers_exit_group() ) * When we call posix_cpu_timer_get() or posix_cpu_timer_schedule(). If the timer's task is considered dying when watched from these places, the same conversion from absolute to relative expiry time is performed. Then the given task's reference is released. (See clear_dead_task() ). The relevance of this caching is questionable but this is another and deeper debate. The big issue here is that these two sources of caching don't mix up very well together. More specifically, the caching can easily be done twice, resulting in a wrong delta as it gets spuriously substracted a second time by the elapsed clock. This can happen in the following scenario: 1) The task exits and gets reaped: we call posix_cpu_timers_exit() and the absolute timer expiry values are converted to a relative delta. 2) timer_gettime() -> posix_cpu_timer_get() is called and relies on clear_dead_task() because tsk->exit_state == EXIT_DEAD. The delta gets substracted again by the elapsed clock and we return a wrong result. To fix this, just remove the caching done on task reaping time. It doesn't bring much value on its own. The caching done from posix_cpu_timer_get/schedule is enough. And it would also be hard to get it really right: we could make it put and clear the target task in the timer struct so that readers know if they are dealing with a relative cached of absolute value. But it would be racy. The only safe way to do it would be to lock the itimer->it_lock so that we know nobody reads the cputime expiry value while we modify it and its target task reference. Doing so would involve some funny workarounds to avoid circular lock against the sighand lock. There is just no reason to maintain this. The user visible effect of this patch can be observed by running the following code: it creates a subthread that launches a posix cputimer which expires after 10 seconds. But then the subthread only busy loops for 2 seconds and exits. The parent reaps the subthread and read the timer value. Its expected value should the be the initial timer's expiration value minus the cputime elapsed in the subthread. Roughly 10 - 2 = 8 seconds: #include <sys/time.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <time.h> #include <pthread.h> static timer_t id; static struct itimerspec val = { .it_value.tv_sec = 10, }, new; static void *thread(void *unused) { int err; struct timeval start, end, diff; timer_create(CLOCK_THREAD_CPUTIME_ID, NULL, &id); if (err < 0) { perror("Can't create timer\n"); return NULL; } /* Arm 10 sec timer */ err = timer_settime(id, 0, &val, NULL); if (err < 0) { perror("Can't set timer\n"); return NULL; } /* Exit after 2 seconds of execution */ gettimeofday(&start, NULL); do { gettimeofday(&end, NULL); timersub(&end, &start, &diff); } while (diff.tv_sec < 2); return NULL; } int main(int argc, char **argv) { pthread_t pthread; int err; err = pthread_create(&pthread, NULL, thread, NULL); if (err) { perror("Can't create thread\n"); return -1; } pthread_join(pthread, NULL); /* Just wait a little bit to make sure the child got reaped */ sleep(1); err = timer_gettime(id, &new); if (err) perror("Can't get timer value\n"); printf("%d %ld\n", new.it_value.tv_sec, new.it_value.tv_nsec); return 0; } Before the patch: $ ./posix_cpu_timers 6 2278074 After the patch: $ ./posix_cpu_timers 8 1158766 Before the patch, the elapsed time got two more seconds spuriously accounted.

If the task is dying though, we don't arm anything but we cache the remaining timer expiration delta for further reads. Something similar is performed in posix_cpu_timer_get() but here we forget to take the process wide cputime sample before caching it. As a result we are storing random stack content, leading every further reads of that timer to return junk values. Fix this by taking the appropriate sample in the case of process wide timers. This probably doesn't matter much in practice because, at this stage, the thread is the last one in the group and we reached exit_notify(). This implies that we called exit_itimers() and there should be no more timers to handle for that task. So this is likely dead code anyway but let's fix the current logic and the warning that came along: kernel/posix-cpu-timers.c: In function 'posix_cpu_timer_schedule': kernel/posix-cpu-timers.c:1127: warning: 'now' may be used uninitialized in this function Then we can start to think further about cleaning up that code.

| * | tick: Sanitize broadcast control logicThomas Gleixner2013-07-022-12/+61

If the dummy timer is the first clock event device which is registered for a CPU, then it is installed, the broadcast timer is initialized and the CPU is marked as broadcast target. If a real clock event device is installed after that, we can fail to take the CPU out of the broadcast mask. In the worst case we end up with two periodic timer events firing for the same CPU. One from the per cpu hardware device and one from the broadcast. Now the problem is that we have no way to distinguish whether the system is in a state which makes broadcasting necessary or the broadcast bit was set due to the nonfunctional dummy timer installment. To solve this we need to keep track of the system state seperately and provide a more detailed decision logic whether we keep the CPU in broadcast mode or not. The old decision logic only clears the broadcast mode, if the newly installed clock event device is not affected by power states. The new logic clears the broadcast mode if one of the following is true: - The new device is not affected by power states. - The system is not in a power state affected mode - The system has switched to oneshot mode. The oneshot broadcast is controlled from the deep idle state. The CPU is not in idle at this point, so it's safe to remove it from the mask. If we clear the broadcast bit for the CPU when a new device is installed, we also shutdown the broadcast device when this was the last CPU in the broadcast mask. If the broadcast bit is kept, then we leave the new device in shutdown state and rely on the broadcast to deliver the timer interrupts via the broadcast ipis.

CPU0 CPU1 per cpu tickdev is in periodic mode and switched to broadcast Switch to oneshot mode tick_broadcast_switch_to_oneshot() cpumask_copy(tick_oneshot_broacast_mask, tick_broadcast_mask); broadcast device mode = oneshot Timer interrupt irq_enter() tick_check_oneshot_broadcast() dev->set_mode(ONESHOT); tick_handle_periodic() if (dev->mode == ONESHOT) dev->next_event += period; FAIL. We fail, because dev->next_event contains KTIME_MAX, if the device was in periodic mode before the uncontrolled switch to oneshot happened. We must copy the broadcast bits over to the oneshot mask, because otherwise a CPU which relies on the broadcast would not been woken up anymore after the broadcast device switched to oneshot mode. So we need to verify in tick_check_oneshot_broadcast() whether the CPU has already switched to oneshot mode. If not, leave the device untouched and let the CPU switch controlled into oneshot mode. This is a long standing bug, which was never noticed, because the main user of the broadcast x86 cannot run into that scenario, AFAICT. The nonarchitected timer mess of ARM creates a gazillion of differently broken abominations which trigger the shortcomings of that broadcast code, which better had never been necessary in the first place.

In oneshot mode we fail to do so. This was not a problem so far, but the recent changes to the broadcast propagation introduced a constellation which can result in a NULL pointer dereference. What happens is: CPU0 CPU1 idle() arch_idle() tick_broadcast_oneshot_control(OFF); set cpu1 in tick_broadcast_force_mask if (cpu_offline()) arch_cpu_dead() cpu_dead_cleanup(cpu1) cpu1 tickdevice pointer = NULL broadcast interrupt dereference cpu1 tickdevice pointer -> OOPS We dereference the pointer because cpu1 is still set in tick_broadcast_force_mask and tick_do_broadcast() expects a valid cpumask and therefor lacks any further checks. Remove the cpu from the tick_broadcast_force_mask before we set the tick device pointer to NULL. Also add a sanity check to the oneshot broadcast function, so we can detect such issues w/o crashing the machine.

If other CPUs are online then their timers will not be corrected and they may fire at the wrong time. When running as a Xen guest, this assumption is not true. Non-boot CPUs are only stopped with IRQs disabled instead of offlining them. This is a performance optimization as disabling the CPUs would add an unacceptable amount of additional downtime during a live migration (> 200 ms for a 4 VCPU guest). hrtimers_resume() cannot call on_each_cpu(retrigger_next_event,...) as the other CPUs will be stopped with IRQs disabled.

We want the dummy clockevents to be registered as the per CPU tick devices, but we can only achieve that if we register the dummy clockevents before the global clockevent or if we artificially inflate the rating of the dummy clockevents to be higher than the rating of the global clockevent. Failure to do so leads to boot hangs when the dummy timers are registered on all other CPUs besides the CPU that accepted the global clockevent as its tick device and there is no broadcast timer to poke the dummy devices. If we're registering multiple clockevents and one clockevent is global and the other is local to a particular CPU we should choose to use the local clockevent regardless of the rating of the device. This way, if the clockevent is a dummy it will take the tick device duty as long as there isn't a higher rated tick device and any global clockevent will be bumped out into broadcast mode, fixing the problem described above.

Consider this scenario: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- cyc = read_sched_clock() cyc_to_sched_clock() update_sched_clock() ... cd.epoch_cyc = cyc; epoch_cyc = cd.epoch_cyc; ... epoch_ns + cyc_to_ns((cyc - epoch_cyc) The cyc on cpu0 was read before the epoch changed. But we calculate the nanoseconds based on the new epoch by subtracting the new epoch from the old cycle count. Since epoch is most likely larger than the old cycle count we calculate a large number that will be converted to nanoseconds and added to epoch_ns, causing time to jump forward too much. Fix this problem by reading the hardware after the epoch has stabilized.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that the notifier chain is gone there are no other users and it's pointless to nest tick_device_lock inside of clockevents_lock because there is no other use case.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The unregister call can fail, if the clocksource is the current one and there is no replacement clocksource available. It can also fail, if the clocksource is the watchdog clocksource and I'm not going to provide support for this.

| * | clocksource: Provide unbind interface in sysfsThomas Gleixner2013-05-161-0/+73
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With the module refcount held for the current clocksource there is no way to unload the module. Provide a sysfs interface which allows to unbind the clocksource. One could argue that the clocksource override could be (ab)used to do so, but the clocksource override cannot be used from the kernel itself, while an unbind function can be used to programmatically check whether a clocksource can be shutdown or not. The unbind functionality uses the new skip current feature of clocksource_select and verifies that a fallback clocksource has been installed. If the clocksource which should be unbound is the current clocksource and no fallback can be found, unbind returns -EBUSY. This does not support the unbinding of a clocksource which is used as the watchdog clocksource. No point in fostering crappy hardware.
