We're missing ctx lock when iterating children siblings
within the perf_read path for group reading. Following
race and crash can happen:
User space doing read syscall on event group leader:
T1:
perf_read
lock event->ctx->mutex
perf_read_group
lock leader->child_mutex
__perf_read_group_add(child)
list_for_each_entry(sub, &leader->sibling_list, group_entry)
----> sub might be invalid at this point, because it could
get removed via perf_event_exit_task_context in T2
Child exiting and cleaning up its events:
T2:
perf_event_exit_task_context
lock ctx->mutex
list_for_each_entry_safe(child_event, next, &child_ctx->event_list,...
perf_event_exit_event(child)
lock ctx->lock
perf_group_detach(child)
unlock ctx->lock
----> child is removed from sibling_list without any sync
with T1 path above
...
free_event(child)
Before the child is removed from the leader's child_list,
(and thus is omitted from perf_read_group processing), we
need to ensure that perf_read_group touches child's
siblings under its ctx->lock.
Peter further notes:
| One additional note; this bug got exposed by commit:

Vince Weaver reported:

> I've bisected one of them, this report is about

> This test creates an event group containing two sampling events, set
> to overflow to a signal handler (which disables and then refreshes the

>
> On a good kernel you get the following:

> Event perf::instructions with period 2000000
> fd 3 overflows: 946 (perf::instructions/1000000)
> fd 4 overflows: 473 (perf::instructions/2000000)
> Ending counts:
> Count 0: 946379875
> Count 1: 946365218
>
> With the broken kernels you get:
> Event perf::instructions with period 1000000
> Event perf::instructions with period 2000000
> fd 3 overflows: 938 (perf::instructions/1000000)
> fd 4 overflows: 318 (perf::instructions/2000000)
> Ending counts:
> Count 0: 946373080
> Count 1: 653373058
The root cause of the bug is that the following commit:
487f05e18a ("perf/core: Optimize event rescheduling on active contexts")
erronously assumed that event's 'pinned' setting determines whether the
event belongs to a pinned group or not, but in fact, it's the group
leader's pinned state that matters.
This was discovered by Vince in the test case described above, where two instruction
counters are grouped, the group leader is pinned, but the other event is not;
in the regressed case the counters were off by 33% (the difference between events'
periods), but should be the same within the error margin.
Fix the problem by looking at the group leader's pinning.

This reverts commit cc1582c231ea041fbc68861dfaf957eaf902b829.
This commit introduced a regression that broke rr-project, which uses sampling
events to receive a signal on overflow (but does not care about the contents
of the sample). These signals are critical to the correct operation of rr.
There's been some back and forth about how to fix it - but to not keep
applications in limbo queue up a revert.

Pull SMP hotplug updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"This update is primarily a cleanup of the CPU hotplug locking code.
The hotplug locking mechanism is an open coded RWSEM, which allows
recursive locking. The main problem with that is the recursive nature
as it evades the full lockdep coverage and hides potential deadlocks.
The rework replaces the open coded RWSEM with a percpu RWSEM and
establishes full lockdep coverage that way.
The bulk of the changes fix up recursive locking issues and address
the now fully reported potential deadlocks all over the place. Some of
these deadlocks have been observed in the RT tree, but on mainline the
probability was low enough to hide them away."

Pull irq updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"The irq department delivers:
- Expand the generic infrastructure handling the irq migration on CPU
hotplug and convert X86 over to it. (Thomas Gleixner)
Aside of consolidating code this is a preparatory change for:
- Finalizing the affinity management for multi-queue devices. The
main change here is to shut down interrupts which are affine to a
outgoing CPU and reenabling them when the CPU comes online again.
That avoids moving interrupts pointlessly around and breaking and
reestablishing affinities for no value. (Christoph Hellwig)
Note: This contains also the BLOCK-MQ and NVME changes which depend
on the rework of the irq core infrastructure. Jens acked them and
agreed that they should go with the irq changes.

Pull core block/IO updates from Jens Axboe:
"This is the main pull request for the block layer for 4.13. Not a huge
round in terms of features, but there's a lot of churn related to some
core cleanups.
Note this depends on the UUID tree pull request, that Christoph
already sent out.
This pull request contains:
- A series from Christoph, unifying the error/stats codes in the
block layer. We now use blk_status_t everywhere, instead of using
different schemes for different places.
- Also from Christoph, some cleanups around request allocation and IO
scheduler interactions in blk-mq.
- And yet another series from Christoph, cleaning up how we handle
and do bounce buffering in the block layer.
- A blk-mq debugfs series from Bart, further improving on the support
we have for exporting internal information to aid debugging IO
hangs or stalls.
- Also from Bart, a series that cleans up the request initialization
differences across types of devices.
- A series from Goldwyn Rodrigues, allowing the block layer to return
failure if we will block and the user asked for non-blocking.
- Patch from Hannes for supporting setting loop devices block size to
that of the underlying device.
- Two series of patches from Javier, fixing various issues with
lightnvm, particular around pblk.
- A series from me, adding support for write hints. This comes with
NVMe support as well, so applications can help guide data placement
on flash to improve performance, latencies, and write
amplification.

Always try to parse an address, since kstrtoul() will safely fail when
given a symbol as input. If that fails (which will be the case for a
symbol), try to parse a symbol instead.
This allows creating a probe such as:
p:probe/vlan_gro_receive 8021q:vlan_gro_receive+0
Which is necessary for this command to work:
perf probe -m 8021q -a vlan_gro_receive

Leaking kernel addresses on unpriviledged is generally disallowed,
for example, verifier rejects the following:
0: (b7) r0 = 0
1: (18) r2 = 0xffff897e82304400
3: (7b) *(u64 *)(r1 +48) = r2
R2 leaks addr into ctx
Doing pointer arithmetic on them is also forbidden, so that they
don't turn into unknown value and then get leaked out. However,
there's xadd as a special case, where we don't check the src reg
for being a pointer register, e.g. the following will pass:
0: (b7) r0 = 0
1: (7b) *(u64 *)(r1 +48) = r0
2: (18) r2 = 0xffff897e82304400 ; map
4: (db) lock *(u64 *)(r1 +48) += r2
5: (95) exit
We could store the pointer into skb->cb, loose the type context,
and then read it out from there again to leak it eventually out
of a map value. Or more easily in a different variant, too:
0: (bf) r6 = r1
1: (7a) *(u64 *)(r10 -8) = 0
2: (bf) r2 = r10
3: (07) r2 += -8
4: (18) r1 = 0x0
6: (85) call bpf_map_lookup_elem#1
7: (15) if r0 == 0x0 goto pc+3
R0=map_value(ks=8,vs=8,id=0),min_value=0,max_value=0 R6=ctx R10=fp
8: (b7) r3 = 0
9: (7b) *(u64 *)(r0 +0) = r3
10: (db) lock *(u64 *)(r0 +0) += r6
11: (b7) r0 = 0
12: (95) exit
from 7 to 11: R0=inv,min_value=0,max_value=0 R6=ctx R10=fp
11: (b7) r0 = 0
12: (95) exit
Prevent this by checking xadd src reg for pointer types. Also
add a couple of test cases related to this.

the lock held time was non-deterministic due to cascading and long lasting

time
An interrupt behaves with a burst of activity with periodic interval of time
followed by one or two peaks of longer interval.
As the time intervals are periodic, statistically speaking they follow a normal
distribution and each interrupts can be tracked individually.
Add a mechanism to compute the statistics on all interrupts, except the
timers which are deterministic from a prediction point of view, as their
expiry time is known.
The goal is to extract the periodicity for each interrupt, with the last
timestamp and sum them, so the next event can be predicted to a certain
extent.
Taking the earliest prediction gives the expected wakeup on the system
(assuming a timer won't expire before).

The interrupt framework gives a lot of information about each interrupt. It
does not keep track of when those interrupts occur though, which is a
prerequisite for estimating the next interrupt arrival for power management
purposes.
Add a mechanism to record the timestamp for each interrupt occurrences in a
per-CPU circular buffer to help with the prediction of the next occurrence
using a statistical model.
Each CPU can store up to IRQ_TIMINGS_SIZE events <irq, timestamp>, the
current value of IRQ_TIMINGS_SIZE is 32.
Each event is encoded into a single u64, where the high 48 bits are used
for the timestamp and the low 16 bits are for the irq number.
A static key is introduced so when the irq prediction is switched off at
runtime, the overhead is near to zero.
It results in most of the code in internals.h for inline reasons and a very
few in the new file timings.c. The latter will contain more in the next patch
which will provide the statistical model for the next event prediction.

Several tests in the NAS benchmark seem to run a lot slower with
NUMA balancing enabled, than with NUMA balancing disabled. The
slower run time corresponds with increased idle time.
Overriding the final test of migrate_degrades_locality (but still
doing the other NUMA tests first) seems to improve performance
of those benchmarks.

This helps making sched/core.c smaller and hopefully easier to understand and maintain.

Make CONFIG_CPUSETS=y depend on SMP as this feature makes no sense
on UP. This allows for configuring out cpuset_cpumask_can_shrink()
and task_can_attach() entirely, which shrinks the kernel a bit.

It did seem like a good idea at the time, but it never really
caught on, and auto-recursive domains remain unused 3 years after
having been introduced.
Oh well, time for a late spring cleanup.

We can have irq domains that are identified by the same fwnode
(because they are serviced by the same HW), and yet have different
functionnality (because they serve different busses, for example).
This is what we use the bus_token field.
Since we don't use this field when generating the domain name,
all the aliasing domains will get the same name, and the debugfs
file creation fails. Also, bus_token is updated by individual drivers,
and the core code is unaware of that update.
In order to sort this mess, let's introduce a helper that takes care
of updating bus_token, and regenerate the debugfs file.
A separate patch will update all the individual users.

Currently the irq vector spread algorithm is restricted to online CPUs,
which ties the IRQ mapping to the currently online devices and doesn't deal
nicely with the fact that CPUs could come and go rapidly due to e.g. power
management.
Instead assign vectors to all present CPUs to avoid this churn.
Build a map of all possible CPUs for a given node, as the architectures
only provide a map of all onlines CPUs. Do this dynamically on each call
for the vector assingments, which is a bit suboptimal and could be
optimized in the future by provinding a mapping from the arch code.

Avoid trying to add a newly online CPU to the effective affinity mask of an
started up interrupt. That interrupt will either stay on the already online
CPU or move around for no value.

Many interrupt chips allow only a single CPU as interrupt target. The core
code has no knowledge about that. That's unfortunate as it could avoid
trying to readd a newly online CPU to the effective affinity mask.
Add the status flag and the necessary accessors.
