Pull Rust updates from Miguel Ojeda:
"Toolchain and infrastructure:
- Support 'MITIGATION_{RETHUNK,RETPOLINE,SLS}' (which cleans up
objtool warnings), teach objtool about 'noreturn' Rust symbols and
mimic '___ADDRESSABLE()' for 'module_{init,exit}'. With that, we
should be objtool-warning-free, so enable it to run for all Rust
object files.
- KASAN (no 'SW_TAGS'), KCFI and shadow call sanitizer support.
- Support 'RUSTC_VERSION', including re-config and re-build on
change.
- Split helpers file into several files in a folder, to avoid
conflicts in it. Eventually those files will be moved to the right
places with the new build system. In addition, remove the need to
manually export the symbols defined there, reusing existing
machinery for that.
- Relax restriction on configurations with Rust + GCC plugins to just
the RANDSTRUCT plugin.
'kernel' crate:
- New 'list' module: doubly-linked linked list for use with reference
counted values, which is heavily used by the upcoming Rust Binder.
This includes 'ListArc' (a wrapper around 'Arc' that is guaranteed
unique for the given ID), 'AtomicTracker' (tracks whether a
'ListArc' exists using an atomic), 'ListLinks' (the prev/next
pointers for an item in a linked list), 'List' (the linked list
itself), 'Iter' (an iterator over a 'List'), 'Cursor' (a cursor
into a 'List' that allows to remove elements), 'ListArcField' (a
field exclusively owned by a 'ListArc'), as well as support for
heterogeneous lists.
- New 'rbtree' module: red-black tree abstractions used by the
upcoming Rust Binder.
This includes 'RBTree' (the red-black tree itself), 'RBTreeNode' (a
node), 'RBTreeNodeReservation' (a memory reservation for a node),
'Iter' and 'IterMut' (immutable and mutable iterators), 'Cursor'
(bidirectional cursor that allows to remove elements), as well as
an entry API similar to the Rust standard library one.
- 'init' module: add 'write_[pin_]init' methods and the
'InPlaceWrite' trait. Add the 'assert_pinned!' macro.
- 'sync' module: implement the 'InPlaceInit' trait for 'Arc' by
introducing an associated type in the trait.
- 'alloc' module: add 'drop_contents' method to 'BoxExt'.
- 'types' module: implement the 'ForeignOwnable' trait for
'Pin<Box<T>>' and improve the trait's documentation. In addition,
add the 'into_raw' method to the 'ARef' type.
- 'error' module: in preparation for the upcoming Rust support for
32-bit architectures, like arm, locally allow Clippy lint for
those.
Documentation:
- https://rust.docs.kernel.org has been announced, so link to it.
- Enable rustdoc's "jump to definition" feature, making its output a
bit closer to the experience in a cross-referencer.
- Debian Testing now also provides recent Rust releases (outside of
the freeze period), so add it to the list.
MAINTAINERS:
- Trevor is joining as reviewer of the "RUST" entry.
And a few other small bits"

Pull sched_ext support from Tejun Heo:
"This implements a new scheduler class called ‘ext_sched_class’, or
sched_ext, which allows scheduling policies to be implemented as BPF
programs.
The goals of this are:
- Ease of experimentation and exploration: Enabling rapid iteration
of new scheduling policies.
- Customization: Building application-specific schedulers which
implement policies that are not applicable to general-purpose
schedulers.
- Rapid scheduler deployments: Non-disruptive swap outs of scheduling
policies in production environments"

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pcmoore/lsm
Pull lsm updates from Paul Moore:
- Move the LSM framework to static calls
This transitions the vast majority of the LSM callbacks into static
calls. Those callbacks which haven't been converted were left as-is
due to the general ugliness of the changes required to support the
static call conversion; we can revisit those callbacks at a future
date.
- Add the Integrity Policy Enforcement (IPE) LSM
This adds a new LSM, Integrity Policy Enforcement (IPE). There is
plenty of documentation about IPE in this patches, so I'll refrain
from going into too much detail here, but the basic motivation behind
IPE is to provide a mechanism such that administrators can restrict
execution to only those binaries which come from integrity protected
storage, e.g. a dm-verity protected filesystem. You will notice that
IPE requires additional LSM hooks in the initramfs, dm-verity, and
fs-verity code, with the associated patches carrying ACK/review tags
from the associated maintainers. We couldn't find an obvious
maintainer for the initramfs code, but the IPE patchset has been
widely posted over several years.
Both Deven Bowers and Fan Wu have contributed to IPE's development
over the past several years, with Fan Wu agreeing to serve as the IPE
maintainer moving forward. Once IPE is accepted into your tree, I'll
start working with Fan to ensure he has the necessary accounts, keys,
etc. so that he can start submitting IPE pull requests to you
directly during the next merge window.
- Move the lifecycle management of the LSM blobs to the LSM framework
Management of the LSM blobs (the LSM state buffers attached to
various kernel structs, typically via a void pointer named "security"
or similar) has been mixed, some blobs were allocated/managed by
individual LSMs, others were managed by the LSM framework itself.
Starting with this pull we move management of all the LSM blobs,
minus the XFRM blob, into the framework itself, improving consistency
across LSMs, and reducing the amount of duplicated code across LSMs.
Due to some additional work required to migrate the XFRM blob, it has
been left as a todo item for a later date; from a practical
standpoint this omission should have little impact as only SELinux
provides a XFRM LSM implementation.
- Fix problems with the LSM's handling of F_SETOWN
The LSM hook for the fcntl(F_SETOWN) operation had a couple of
problems: it was racy with itself, and it was disconnected from the
associated DAC related logic in such a way that the LSM state could
be updated in cases where the DAC state would not. We fix both of
these problems by moving the security_file_set_fowner() hook into the
same section of code where the DAC attributes are updated. Not only
does this resolve the DAC/LSM synchronization issue, but as that code
block is protected by a lock, it also resolve the race condition.
- Fix potential problems with the security_inode_free() LSM hook
Due to use of RCU to protect inodes and the placement of the LSM hook
associated with freeing the inode, there is a bit of a challenge when
it comes to managing any LSM state associated with an inode. The VFS
folks are not open to relocating the LSM hook so we have to get
creative when it comes to releasing an inode's LSM state.
Traditionally we have used a single LSM callback within the hook that
is triggered when the inode is "marked for death", but not actually
released due to RCU.
Unfortunately, this causes problems for LSMs which want to take an
action when the inode's associated LSM state is actually released; so
we add an additional LSM callback, inode_free_security_rcu(), that is
called when the inode's LSM state is released in the RCU free
callback.
- Refactor two LSM hooks to better fit the LSM return value patterns
The vast majority of the LSM hooks follow the "return 0 on success,
negative values on failure" pattern, however, there are a small
handful that have unique return value behaviors which has caused
confusion in the past and makes it difficult for the BPF verifier to
properly vet BPF LSM programs. This includes patches to
convert two of these"special" LSM hooks to the common 0/-ERRNO pattern.
- Various cleanups and improvements
A handful of patches to remove redundant code, better leverage the
IS_ERR_OR_NULL() helper, add missing "static" markings, and do some
minor style fixups.

Make it possible to use the Control Flow Integrity (CFI) sanitizer when
Rust is enabled. Enabling CFI with Rust requires that CFI is configured
to normalize integer types so that all integer types of the same size
and signedness are compatible under CFI.
Rust and C use the same LLVM backend for code generation, so Rust KCFI
is compatible with the KCFI used in the kernel for C. In the case of
FineIBT, CFI also depends on -Zpatchable-function-entry for rewriting
the function prologue, so we set that flag for Rust as well. The flag
for FineIBT requires rustc 1.80.0 or later, so include a Kconfig
requirement for that.
Enabling Rust will select CFI_ICALL_NORMALIZE_INTEGERS because the flag
is required to use Rust with CFI. Using select rather than `depends on`
avoids the case where Rust is not visible in menuconfig due to
CFI_ICALL_NORMALIZE_INTEGERS not being enabled. One disadvantage of
select is that RUST must `depends on` all of the things that
CFI_ICALL_NORMALIZE_INTEGERS depends on to avoid invalid configurations.
Alice has been using KCFI on her phone for several months, so it is
reasonably well tested on arm64.

Add all of the flags that are needed to support the shadow call stack
(SCS) sanitizer with Rust, and updates Kconfig to allow only
configurations that work.
The -Zfixed-x18 flag is required to use SCS on arm64, and requires rustc
version 1.80.0 or greater. This restriction is reflected in Kconfig.
When CONFIG_DYNAMIC_SCS is enabled, the build will be configured to
include unwind tables in the build artifacts. Dynamic SCS uses the
unwind tables at boot to find all places that need to be patched. The
-Cforce-unwind-tables=y flag ensures that unwind tables are available
for Rust code.
In non-dynamic mode, the -Zsanitizer=shadow-call-stack flag is what
enables the SCS sanitizer. Using this flag requires rustc version 1.82.0
or greater on the targets used by Rust in the kernel. This restriction
is reflected in Kconfig.
It is possible to avoid the requirement of rustc 1.80.0 by using
-Ctarget-feature=+reserve-x18 instead of -Zfixed-x18. However, this flag
emits a warning during the build, so this patch does not add support for
using it and instead requires 1.80.0 or greater.
The dependency is placed on `select HAVE_RUST` to avoid a situation
where enabling Rust silently turns off the sanitizer. Instead, turning
on the sanitizer results in Rust being disabled. We generally do not
want changes to CONFIG_RUST to result in any mitigations being changed
or turned off.
At the time of writing, rustc 1.82.0 only exists via the nightly release
channel. There is a chance that the -Zsanitizer=shadow-call-stack flag
will end up needing 1.83.0 instead, but I think it is small.

Re-run Kconfig if we detect the Rust compiler has changed via the version
text, like it is done for C.
Unlike C, and unlike `RUSTC_VERSION`, the `RUSTC_VERSION_TEXT` is kept
under `depends on RUST`, since it should not be needed unless `RUST`
is enabled.

Now that we support several Rust versions, introduce
`CONFIG_RUSTC_VERSION` so that it can be used in Kconfig to enable and
disable configuration options based on the `rustc` version.
The approach taken resembles `pahole`'s -- see commit 613fe1692377
("kbuild: Add CONFIG_PAHOLE_VERSION"), i.e. a simple version parsing
without trying to identify several kinds of compilers, since so far
there is only one (`rustc`).
However, unlike `pahole`'s, we also print a zero if executing failed for
any reason, rather than checking if the command is found and executable
(which still leaves things like a file that exists and is executable,
but e.g. is built for another platform [1]). An equivalent approach to
the one here was also submitted for `pahole` [2].

Add sched_ext_ops operations to init/exit cgroups, and track task migrations
and config changes. A BPF scheduler may not implement or implement only
subset of cgroup features. The implemented features can be indicated using
%SCX_OPS_HAS_CGOUP_* flags. If cgroup configuration makes use of features
that are not implemented, a warning is triggered.
While a BPF scheduler is being enabled and disabled, relevant cgroup
operations are locked out using scx_cgroup_rwsem. This avoids situations
like task prep taking place while the task is being moved across cgroups,
making things easier for BPF schedulers.
v7: - cgroup interface file visibility toggling is dropped in favor just
warning messages. Dynamically changing interface visiblity caused more
confusion than helping.
v6: - Updated to reflect the removal of SCX_KF_SLEEPABLE.
- Updated to use CONFIG_GROUP_SCHED_WEIGHT and fixes for
!CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED && CONFIG_EXT_GROUP_SCHED.
v5: - Flipped the locking order between scx_cgroup_rwsem and
cpus_read_lock() to avoid locking order conflict w/ cpuset. Better
documentation around locking.
- sched_move_task() takes an early exit if the source and destination
are identical. This triggered the warning in scx_cgroup_can_attach()
as it left p->scx.cgrp_moving_from uncleared. Updated the cgroup
migration path so that ops.cgroup_prep_move() is skipped for identity
migrations so that its invocations always match ops.cgroup_move()
one-to-one.
v4: - Example schedulers moved into their own patches.
- Fix build failure when !CONFIG_CGROUP_SCHED, reported by Andrea Righi.
v3: - Make scx_example_pair switch all tasks by default.
- Convert to BPF inline iterators.
- scx_bpf_task_cgroup() is added to determine the current cgroup from
CPU controller's POV. This allows BPF schedulers to accurately track
CPU cgroup membership.
- scx_example_flatcg added. This demonstrates flattened hierarchy
implementation of CPU cgroup control and shows significant performance
improvement when cgroups which are nested multiple levels are under
competition.
v2: - Build fixes for different CONFIG combinations.

sched_ext will soon add cgroup cpu.weigh support. The cgroup interface code
is currently gated behind CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED. As the fair class and/or
SCX may implement the feature, put the interface code behind the new
CONFIG_CGROUP_SCHED_WEIGHT which is selected by CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED.
This allows either sched class to enable the itnerface code without ading
more complex CONFIG tests.
When !CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED, a dummy version of sched_group_set_shares()
is added to support later CONFIG_CGROUP_SCHED_WEIGHT &&
!CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED builds.

Use LZMA2 options that match the arch-specific alignment of instructions.
This change reduces compressed kernel size 0-2 % depending on the arch.
On 1-byte-aligned x86 it makes no difference and on 4-byte-aligned archs
it helps the most.
Use the ARM-Thumb filter for ARM-Thumb2 kernels. This reduces compressed
kernel size about 5 %.[1] Previously such kernels were compressed using
the ARM filter which didn't do anything useful with ARM-Thumb2 code.
Add BCJ filter support for ARM64 and RISC-V. Compared to unfiltered XZ or
plain LZMA, the compressed kernel size is reduced about 5 % on ARM64 and 7
% on RISC-V. A new enough version of the xz tool is required: 5.4.0 for
ARM64 and 5.6.0 for RISC-V. With an old xz version, a message is printed
to standard error and the kernel is compressed without the filter.
Update lib/decompress_unxz.c to match the changes to xz_wrap.sh.
Update the CONFIG_KERNEL_XZ help text in init/Kconfig:
- Add the RISC-V and ARM64 filters.
- Clarify that the PowerPC filter is for big endian only.
- Omit IA-64.

With LSMs using static calls and static keys, early_lsm_init needs to

Since not all architectures call jump_table_init in setup_arch,

early_security_init.
This only affects "early LSMs" i.e. only lockdown when

Upon receiving this notification, the security system can activate
a policy to allow only files that originated from the initramfs to

This approach is crucial for minimizing the attack surface by
ensuring that only trusted files from the initramfs are operational

When enabling Rust in the kernel, we only need to block on the
RANDSTRUCT feature and GCC plugin. The rest of the GCC plugins
are reasonably safe to enable.
[ Originally (years ago) we only had this restriction, but we ended up
restricting also the rest of the GCC plugins 1) to be on the safe side,
2) since compiler plugin support could be going away in the kernel and
3) since mixed builds are best effort so far; so I asked Neal about
his experience enabling the other plugins -- Neal says:
When I originally wrote this patch two years ago to get things
working, Fedora used all the GCC plugins, so I was trying to get GCC +
Rust to work while minimizing the delta on build differences. This was
the combination that worked. We've been carrying this patch in the
Asahi tree for a year now. And while Fedora does not currently have
GCC plugins enabled because it caused issues with some third-party
modules (I think it was the NVIDIA driver, but I'm not sure), it was
around long enough for me to know with some confidence that it was
fine this way.

When using the shadow call stack sanitizer, all code must be compiled
with the -ffixed-x18 flag, but this flag is not currently being passed
to Rust. This results in crashes that are extremely difficult to debug.
To ensure that nobody else has to go through the same debugging session
that I had to, prevent configurations that enable both SHADOW_CALL_STACK
and RUST.
It is rather common for people to backport 724a75ac9542 ("arm64: rust:

Another oddity in these config entries is their default value can fall
back to 'n', which is a value for bool or tristate symbols.
The '|| echo n' is an incorrect workaround to avoid the syntax error.
This is not a big deal, as the entry is hidden by 'depends on RUST' in
situations where '$(RUSTC) --version' or '$(BINDGEN) --version' fails.
Anyway, it looks odd.
The default of a string type symbol should be a double-quoted string
literal. Turn it into an empty string when the version command fails.

Pull Rust updates from Miguel Ojeda:
"The highlight is the establishment of a minimum version for the Rust
toolchain, including 'rustc' (and bundled tools) and 'bindgen'.
The initial minimum will be the pinned version we currently have, i.e.
we are just widening the allowed versions. That covers three stable
Rust releases: 1.78.0, 1.79.0, 1.80.0 (getting released tomorrow),
plus beta, plus nightly.
This should already be enough for kernel developers in distributions
that provide recent Rust compiler versions routinely, such as Arch
Linux, Debian Unstable (outside the freeze period), Fedora Linux,
Gentoo Linux (especially the testing channel), Nix (unstable) and
openSUSE Slowroll and Tumbleweed.
In addition, the kernel is now being built-tested by Rust's pre-merge
CI. That is, every change that is attempting to land into the Rust
compiler is tested against the kernel, and it is merged only if it
passes. Similarly, the bindgen tool has agreed to build the kernel in
their CI too.
Thus, with the pre-merge CI in place, both projects hope to avoid
unintentional changes to Rust that break the kernel. This means that,
in general, apart from intentional changes on their side (that we will
need to workaround conditionally on our side), the upcoming Rust
compiler versions should generally work.
In addition, the Rust project has proposed getting the kernel into
stable Rust (at least solving the main blockers) as one of its three
flagship goals for 2024H2 [1].
I would like to thank Niko, Sid, Emilio et al. for their help
promoting the collaboration between Rust and the kernel.
Toolchain and infrastructure:
- Support several Rust toolchain versions.
- Support several bindgen versions.
- Remove 'cargo' requirement and simplify 'rusttest', thanks to
'alloc' having been dropped last cycle.
- Provide proper error reporting for the 'rust-analyzer' target.
'kernel' crate:
- Add 'uaccess' module with a safe userspace pointers abstraction.
- Add 'page' module with a 'struct page' abstraction.
- Support more complex generics in workqueue's 'impl_has_work!'
macro.
'macros' crate:
- Add 'firmware' field support to the 'module!' macro.
- Improve 'module!' macro documentation.
Documentation:
- Provide instructions on what packages should be installed to build
the kernel in some popular Linux distributions.
- Introduce the new kernel.org LLVM+Rust toolchains.
- Explain '#[no_std]'.

permits userspace to stop the kernel's automatic treatment of
excessive correctable memory errors. In order to permit userspace to

Yang improves the kernel's presentation of developer information
related to multisize THP splitting.
- Michael Ellerman has developed the series "Reimplement huge pages
without hugepd on powerpc (8xx, e500, book3s/64)". This permits

Several versions of GCC mis-compile asm goto with outputs. We try to
workaround this, but our workaround is demonstrably incomplete and
liable to result in subtle bugs, especially on arm64 where get_user()
has recently been moved over to using asm goto with outputs.
From discussion(s) with Linus at:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-kernel/Zpfv2tnlQ-gOLGac@J2N7QTR9R3.cambridge.arm.com/
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-kernel/ZpfxLrJAOF2YNqCk@J2N7QTR9R3.cambridge.arm.com/
... it sounds like the best thing to do for now is to remove the
workaround and make CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO_OUTPUT depend on working compiler
versions.
The issue was originally reported to GCC by Sean Christopherson:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=113921
... and Jakub Jelinek fixed this for GCC 14, with the fix backported to
13.3.0, 12.4.0, and 11.5.0.
In the kernel, we tried to workaround broken compilers in commits:
4356e9f841f7 ("work around gcc bugs with 'asm goto' with outputs")
68fb3ca0e408 ("update workarounds for gcc "asm goto" issue")
... but the workaround of adding an empty asm("") after the asm volatile
goto(...) demonstrably does not always avoid the problem, as can be seen
in the following test case:
| #define asm_goto_output(x...) \
| do { asm volatile goto(x); asm (""); } while (0)
|
| #define __good_or_bad(__val, __key) \
| do { \
| __label__ __failed; \
| unsigned long __tmp; \
| asm_goto_output( \
| " cbnz %[key], %l[__failed]\n" \
| " mov %[val], #0x900d\n" \
| : [val] "=r" (__tmp) \
| : [key] "r" (__key) \
| : \
| : __failed); \
| (__val) = __tmp; \
| break; \
| __failed: \
| (__val) = 0xbad; \
| } while (0)
|
| unsigned long get_val(unsigned long key);
| unsigned long get_val(unsigned long key)
| {
| unsigned long val = 0xbad;
|
| __good_or_bad(val, key);
|
| return val;
| }
GCC 13.2.0 (at -O2) compiles this to:
| cbnz x0, .Lfailed
| mov x0, #0x900d
| .Lfailed:
| ret
GCC 14.1.0 (at -O2) compiles this to:
| cbnz x0, .Lfailed
| mov x0, #0x900d
| ret
| .Lfailed:
| mov x0, #0xbad
| ret
Note that GCC 13.2.0 erroneously omits the assignment to 'val' in the
error path (even though this does not depend on an output of the asm
goto). GCC 14.1.0 correctly retains the assignment.
This problem can be seen within the kernel with the following test case:
| #include <linux/uaccess.h>
| #include <linux/types.h>
|
| noinline unsigned long test_unsafe_get_user(unsigned long __user *ptr);
| noinline unsigned long test_unsafe_get_user(unsigned long __user *ptr)
| {
| unsigned long val;
|
| unsafe_get_user(val, ptr, Efault);
| return val;
|
| Efault:
| val = 0x900d;
| return val;
| }
GCC 13.2.0 (arm64 defconfig) compiles this to:
| and x0, x0, #0xff7fffffffffffff
| ldtr x0, [x0]
| .Lextable_fixup:
| ret
GCC 13.2.0 (x86_64 defconfig + MITIGATION_RETPOLINE=n) compiles this to:
| endbr64
| mov (%rdi),%rax
| .Lextable_fixup:
| ret
... omitting the assignment to 'val' in the error path, and leaving
garbage in the result register returned by the function (which happens
to contain the faulting address in the generated code).
GCC 14.1.0 (arm64 defconfig) compiles this to:
| and x0, x0, #0xff7fffffffffffff
| ldtr x0, [x0]
| ret
| .Lextable_fixup:
| mov x0, #0x900d // #36877
| ret
GCC 14.1.0 (x86_64 defconfig + MITIGATION_RETPOLINE=n) compiles this to:
| endbr64
| mov (%rdi),%rax
| ret
| .Lextable_fixup:
| mov $0x900d,%eax
| ret
... retaining the expected assignment to 'val' in the error path.
We don't have a complete and reasonable workaround. While placing empty
asm("") blocks after each goto label *might* be sufficient, we don't
know for certain, this is tedious and error-prone, and there doesn't
seem to be a neat way to wrap this up (which is especially painful for
cases with multiple goto labels).
Avoid this issue by disabling CONFIG_CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO_OUTPUT for
known-broken compiler versions and removing the workaround (along with
the CONFIG_GCC_ASM_GOTO_OUTPUT_WORKAROUND config option).
For the moment I've left the default implementation of asm_goto_output()
unchanged. This should now be redundant since any compiler with the fix
for the clobbering issue whould also have a fix for the (earlier)
volatile issue, but it's far less churny to leave it around, which makes
it easier to backport this patch if necessary.

CONFIG_MEMCG for almost a decade. We've only grown more kernel memory

forward that wants to track user pages but not the multitude of
user-drivable kernel allocations.

struct scx_dsq_node contains two data structure nodes to link the containing
task to a DSQ and a flags field that is protected by the lock of the
associated DSQ. One reason why they are grouped into a struct is to use the
type independently as a cursor node when iterating tasks on a DSQ. However,
when iterating, the cursor only needs to be linked on the FIFO list and the
rb_node part ends up inflating the size of the iterator data structure
unnecessarily making it potentially too expensive to place it on stack.
Take ->priq and ->flags out of scx_dsq_node and put them in sched_ext_entity
as ->dsq_priq and ->dsq_flags, respectively. scx_dsq_node is renamed to
scx_dsq_list_node and the field names are renamed accordingly. This will
help implementing DSQ task iterator that can be allocated on stack.
No functional change intended.

Put legacy cgroup v1 memory controller code under a new CONFIG_MEMCG_V1
config option. The option is turned off by default. Nobody except those
who are still using cgroup v1 should turn it on.
If the option is not set, memory controller can still be mounted under
cgroup v1, but none of memcg-specific control files are present.
Please note, that not all cgroup v1's memory controller code is guarded
yet (but most of it), it's a subject for some follow-up work.

Currently, a dsq is always a FIFO. A task which is dispatched earlier gets
consumed or executed earlier. While this is sufficient when dsq's are used
for simple staging areas for tasks which are ready to execute, it'd make
dsq's a lot more useful if they can implement custom ordering.
This patch adds a vtime-ordered priority queue to dsq's. When the BPF
scheduler dispatches a task with the new scx_bpf_dispatch_vtime() helper, it
can specify the vtime tha the task should be inserted at and the task is
inserted into the priority queue in the dsq which is ordered according to
time_before64() comparison of the vtime values.
A DSQ can either be a FIFO or priority queue and automatically switches
between the two depending on whether scx_bpf_dispatch() or
scx_bpf_dispatch_vtime() is used. Using the wrong variant while the DSQ
already has the other type queued is not allowed and triggers an ops error.
Built-in DSQs must always be FIFOs.
This makes it very easy for the BPF schedulers to implement proper vtime
based scheduling within each dsq very easy and efficient at a negligible
cost in terms of code complexity and overhead.
scx_simple and scx_example_flatcg are updated to default to weighted
vtime scheduling (the latter within each cgroup). FIFO scheduling can be
selected with -f option.
v4: - As allowing mixing priority queue and FIFO on the same DSQ sometimes
led to unexpected starvations, DSQs now error out if both modes are
used at the same time and the built-in DSQs are no longer allowed to
be priority queues.
- Explicit type struct scx_dsq_node added to contain fields needed to be
linked on DSQs. This will be used to implement stateful iterator.
- Tasks are now always linked on dsq->list whether the DSQ is in FIFO or
PRIQ mode. This confines PRIQ related complexities to the enqueue and
dequeue paths. Other paths only need to look at dsq->list. This will
also ease implementing BPF iterator.
- Print p->scx.dsq_flags in debug dump.
v3: - SCX_TASK_DSQ_ON_PRIQ flag is moved from p->scx.flags into its own
p->scx.dsq_flags. The flag is protected with the dsq lock unlike other
flags in p->scx.flags. This led to flag corruption in some cases.
- Add comments explaining the interaction between using consumption of
p->scx.slice to determine vtime progress and yielding.
v2: - p->scx.dsq_vtime was not initialized on load or across cgroup
migrations leading to some tasks being stalled for extended period of
time depending on how saturated the machine is. Fixed.

The most common and critical way that a BPF scheduler can misbehave is by
failing to run runnable tasks for too long. This patch implements a
watchdog.
* All tasks record when they become runnable.
* A watchdog work periodically scans all runnable tasks. If any task has
stayed runnable for too long, the BPF scheduler is aborted.
* scheduler_tick() monitors whether the watchdog itself is stuck. If so, the
BPF scheduler is aborted.
Because the watchdog only scans the tasks which are currently runnable and
usually very infrequently, the overhead should be negligible.
scx_qmap is updated so that it can be told to stall user and/or
kernel tasks.
A detected task stall looks like the following:
sched_ext: BPF scheduler "qmap" errored, disabling
sched_ext: runnable task stall (dbus-daemon[953] failed to run for 6.478s)

Note that this patch exposes scx_ops_error[_type]() in kernel/sched/ext.h to
inline scx_notify_sched_tick().
v4: - While disabling, cancel_delayed_work_sync(&scx_watchdog_work) was
being called before forward progress was guaranteed and thus could
lead to system lockup. Relocated.
- While enabling, it was comparing msecs against jiffies without
conversion leading to spurious load failures on lower HZ kernels.
Fixed.
- runnable list management is now used by core bypass logic and moved to
the patch implementing sched_ext core.
v3: - bpf_scx_init_member() was incorrectly comparing ops->timeout_ms
against SCX_WATCHDOG_MAX_TIMEOUT which is in jiffies without
conversion leading to spurious load failures in lower HZ kernels.
Fixed.
v2: - Julia Lawall noticed that the watchdog code was mixing msecs and
jiffies. Fix by using jiffies for everything.

Implement a new scheduler class sched_ext (SCX), which allows scheduling
policies to be implemented as BPF programs to achieve the following:
1. Ease of experimentation and exploration: Enabling rapid iteration of new
scheduling policies.
2. Customization: Building application-specific schedulers which implement
policies that are not applicable to general-purpose schedulers.
3. Rapid scheduler deployments: Non-disruptive swap outs of scheduling
policies in production environments.
sched_ext leverages BPF’s struct_ops feature to define a structure which
exports function callbacks and flags to BPF programs that wish to implement
scheduling policies. The struct_ops structure exported by sched_ext is
struct sched_ext_ops, and is conceptually similar to struct sched_class. The
role of sched_ext is to map the complex sched_class callbacks to the more
simple and ergonomic struct sched_ext_ops callbacks.
For more detailed discussion on the motivations and overview, please refer
to the cover letter.
Later patches will also add several example schedulers and documentation.
This patch implements the minimum core framework to enable implementation of
BPF schedulers. Subsequent patches will gradually add functionalities
including safety guarantee mechanisms, nohz and cgroup support.
include/linux/sched/ext.h defines struct sched_ext_ops. With the comment on
top, each operation should be self-explanatory. The followings are worth
noting:
- Both "sched_ext" and its shorthand "scx" are used. If the identifier
already has "sched" in it, "ext" is used; otherwise, "scx".
- In sched_ext_ops, only .name is mandatory. Every operation is optional and
if omitted a simple but functional default behavior is provided.
- A new policy constant SCHED_EXT is added and a task can select sched_ext
by invoking sched_setscheduler(2) with the new policy constant. However,
if the BPF scheduler is not loaded, SCHED_EXT is the same as SCHED_NORMAL
and the task is scheduled by CFS. When the BPF scheduler is loaded, all
tasks which have the SCHED_EXT policy are switched to sched_ext.
- To bridge the workflow imbalance between the scheduler core and
sched_ext_ops callbacks, sched_ext uses simple FIFOs called dispatch
queues (dsq's). By default, there is one global dsq (SCX_DSQ_GLOBAL), and
one local per-CPU dsq (SCX_DSQ_LOCAL). SCX_DSQ_GLOBAL is provided for
convenience and need not be used by a scheduler that doesn't require it.
SCX_DSQ_LOCAL is the per-CPU FIFO that sched_ext pulls from when putting
the next task on the CPU. The BPF scheduler can manage an arbitrary number
of dsq's using scx_bpf_create_dsq() and scx_bpf_destroy_dsq().
- sched_ext guarantees system integrity no matter what the BPF scheduler
does. To enable this, each task's ownership is tracked through
p->scx.ops_state and all tasks are put on scx_tasks list. The disable path
can always recover and revert all tasks back to CFS. See p->scx.ops_state
and scx_tasks.
- A task is not tied to its rq while enqueued. This decouples CPU selection
from queueing and allows sharing a scheduling queue across an arbitrary
subset of CPUs. This adds some complexities as a task may need to be
bounced between rq's right before it starts executing. See
dispatch_to_local_dsq() and move_task_to_local_dsq().
- One complication that arises from the above weak association between task
and rq is that synchronizing with dequeue() gets complicated as dequeue()
may happen anytime while the task is enqueued and the dispatch path might
need to release the rq lock to transfer the task. Solving this requires a
bit of complexity. See the logic around p->scx.sticky_cpu and
p->scx.ops_qseq.
- Both enable and disable paths are a bit complicated. The enable path
switches all tasks without blocking to avoid issues which can arise from
partially switched states (e.g. the switching task itself being starved).
The disable path can't trust the BPF scheduler at all, so it also has to
guarantee forward progress without blocking. See scx_ops_enable() and
scx_ops_disable_workfn().
- When sched_ext is disabled, static_branches are used to shut down the
entry points from hot paths.
v7: - scx_ops_bypass() was incorrectly and unnecessarily trying to grab
scx_ops_enable_mutex which can lead to deadlocks in the disable path.
Fixed.
- Fixed TASK_DEAD handling bug in scx_ops_enable() path which could lead
to use-after-free.
- Consolidated per-cpu variable usages and other cleanups.
v6: - SCX_NR_ONLINE_OPS replaced with SCX_OPI_*_BEGIN/END so that multiple
groups can be expressed. Later CPU hotplug operations are put into
their own group.
- SCX_OPS_DISABLING state is replaced with the new bypass mechanism
which allows temporarily putting the system into simple FIFO
scheduling mode bypassing the BPF scheduler. In addition to the shut
down path, this will also be used to isolate the BPF scheduler across
PM events. Enabling and disabling the bypass mode requires iterating
all runnable tasks. rq->scx.runnable_list addition is moved from the
later watchdog patch.
- ops.prep_enable() is replaced with ops.init_task() and
ops.enable/disable() are now called whenever the task enters and
leaves sched_ext instead of when the task becomes schedulable on
sched_ext and stops being so. A new operation - ops.exit_task() - is
called when the task stops being schedulable on sched_ext.
- scx_bpf_dispatch() can now be called from ops.select_cpu() too. This
removes the need for communicating local dispatch decision made by
ops.select_cpu() to ops.enqueue() via per-task storage.
SCX_KF_SELECT_CPU is added to support the change.
- SCX_TASK_ENQ_LOCAL which told the BPF scheudler that
scx_select_cpu_dfl() wants the task to be dispatched to the local DSQ
was removed. Instead, scx_bpf_select_cpu_dfl() now dispatches directly
if it finds a suitable idle CPU. If such behavior is not desired,
users can use scx_bpf_select_cpu_dfl() which returns the verdict in a
bool out param.
- scx_select_cpu_dfl() was mishandling WAKE_SYNC and could end up
queueing many tasks on a local DSQ which makes tasks to execute in
order while other CPUs stay idle which made some hackbench numbers
really bad. Fixed.
- The current state of sched_ext can now be monitored through files
under /sys/sched_ext instead of /sys/kernel/debug/sched/ext. This is
to enable monitoring on kernels which don't enable debugfs.
- sched_ext wasn't telling BPF that ops.dispatch()'s @prev argument may
be NULL and a BPF scheduler which derefs the pointer without checking
could crash the kernel. Tell BPF. This is currently a bit ugly. A
better way to annotate this is expected in the future.
- scx_exit_info updated to carry pointers to message buffers instead of
embedding them directly. This decouples buffer sizes from API so that
they can be changed without breaking compatibility.
- exit_code added to scx_exit_info. This is used to indicate different
exit conditions on non-error exits and will be used to handle e.g. CPU
hotplugs.
- The patch "sched_ext: Allow BPF schedulers to switch all eligible
tasks into sched_ext" is folded in and the interface is changed so
that partial switching is indicated with a new ops flag
%SCX_OPS_SWITCH_PARTIAL. This makes scx_bpf_switch_all() unnecessasry
and in turn SCX_KF_INIT. ops.init() is now called with
SCX_KF_SLEEPABLE.
- Code reorganized so that only the parts necessary to integrate with
the rest of the kernel are in the header files.
- Changes to reflect the BPF and other kernel changes including the
addition of bpf_sched_ext_ops.cfi_stubs.
v5: - To accommodate 32bit configs, p->scx.ops_state is now atomic_long_t
instead of atomic64_t and scx_dsp_buf_ent.qseq which uses
load_acquire/store_release is now unsigned long instead of u64.
- Fix the bug where bpf_scx_btf_struct_access() was allowing write
access to arbitrary fields.
- Distinguish kfuncs which can be called from any sched_ext ops and from
anywhere. e.g. scx_bpf_pick_idle_cpu() can now be called only from
sched_ext ops.
- Rename "type" to "kind" in scx_exit_info to make it easier to use on
languages in which "type" is a reserved keyword.
- Since cff9b2332ab7 ("kernel/sched: Modify initial boot task idle
setup"), PF_IDLE is not set on idle tasks which haven't been online
yet which made scx_task_iter_next_filtered() include those idle tasks
in iterations leading to oopses. Update scx_task_iter_next_filtered()
to directly test p->sched_class against idle_sched_class instead of
using is_idle_task() which tests PF_IDLE.
- Other updates to match upstream changes such as adding const to
set_cpumask() param and renaming check_preempt_curr() to
wakeup_preempt().
v4: - SCHED_CHANGE_BLOCK replaced with the previous
sched_deq_and_put_task()/sched_enq_and_set_tsak() pair. This is
because upstream is adaopting a different generic cleanup mechanism.
Once that lands, the code will be adapted accordingly.
- task_on_scx() used to test whether a task should be switched into SCX,
which is confusing. Renamed to task_should_scx(). task_on_scx() now
tests whether a task is currently on SCX.
- scx_has_idle_cpus is barely used anymore and replaced with direct
check on the idle cpumask.
- SCX_PICK_IDLE_CORE added and scx_pick_idle_cpu() improved to prefer
fully idle cores.
- ops.enable() now sees up-to-date p->scx.weight value.
- ttwu_queue path is disabled for tasks on SCX to avoid confusing BPF
schedulers expecting ->select_cpu() call.
- Use cpu_smt_mask() instead of topology_sibling_cpumask() like the rest
of the scheduler.
v3: - ops.set_weight() added to allow BPF schedulers to track weight changes
without polling p->scx.weight.
- move_task_to_local_dsq() was losing SCX-specific enq_flags when
enqueueing the task on the target dsq because it goes through
activate_task() which loses the upper 32bit of the flags. Carry the
flags through rq->scx.extra_enq_flags.
- scx_bpf_dispatch(), scx_bpf_pick_idle_cpu(), scx_bpf_task_running()
and scx_bpf_task_cpu() now use the new KF_RCU instead of
KF_TRUSTED_ARGS to make it easier for BPF schedulers to call them.
- The kfunc helper access control mechanism implemented through
sched_ext_entity.kf_mask is improved. Now SCX_CALL_OP*() is always
used when invoking scx_ops operations.
v2: - balance_scx_on_up() is dropped. Instead, on UP, balance_scx() is
called from put_prev_taks_scx() and pick_next_task_scx() as necessary.
To determine whether balance_scx() should be called from
put_prev_task_scx(), SCX_TASK_DEQD_FOR_SLEEP flag is added. See the
comment in put_prev_task_scx() for details.
- sched_deq_and_put_task() / sched_enq_and_set_task() sequences replaced
with SCHED_CHANGE_BLOCK().
- Unused all_dsqs list removed. This was a left-over from previous
iterations.
- p->scx.kf_mask is added to track and enforce which kfunc helpers are
allowed. Also, init/exit sequences are updated to make some kfuncs
always safe to call regardless of the current BPF scheduler state.
Combined, this should make all the kfuncs safe.
- BPF now supports sleepable struct_ops operations. Hacky workaround
removed and operations and kfunc helpers are tagged appropriately.
- BPF now supports bitmask / cpumask helpers. scx_bpf_get_idle_cpumask()
and friends are added so that BPF schedulers can use the idle masks
with the generic helpers. This replaces the hacky kfunc helpers added
by a separate patch in V1.
- CONFIG_SCHED_CLASS_EXT can no longer be enabled if SCHED_CORE is
enabled. This restriction will be removed by a later patch which adds
core-sched support.
- Add MAINTAINERS entries and other misc changes.

'-Warray-bounds' is already disabled for gcc-10+. Now that we've merged
bitmap_{read,write), I see the following error when building the kernel
with gcc-9.4 (Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS) for x86_64 allmodconfig:
drivers/pinctrl/pinctrl-cy8c95x0.c: In function `cy8c95x0_read_regs_mask.isra.0':
include/linux/bitmap.h:756:18: error: array subscript [1, 288230376151711744] is outside array bounds of `long unsigned int[1]' [-Werror=array-bounds]
756 | value_high = map[index + 1] & BITMAP_LAST_WORD_MASK(start + nbits);
| ~~~^~~~~~~~~~~
The immediate reason is that the commit b44759705f7d ("bitmap: make
bitmap_{get,set}_value8() use bitmap_{read,write}()") switched the
bitmap_get_value8() to an alias of bitmap_read(); the same for 'set'.
Now; the code that triggers Warray-bounds, calls the function like this:
#define MAX_BANK 8
#define BANK_SZ 8
#define MAX_LINE (MAX_BANK * BANK_SZ)
DECLARE_BITMAP(tval, MAX_LINE); // 64-bit map: unsigned long tval[1]
read_val |= bitmap_get_value8(tval, i * BANK_SZ) & ~bits;
bitmap_read() is implemented such that it may conditionally dereference a
pointer beyond the boundary like this:
unsigned long offset = start % BITS_PER_LONG;
unsigned long space = BITS_PER_LONG - offset;
if (space >= nbits)
return (map[index] >> offset) & BITMAP_LAST_WORD_MASK(nbits);
value_low = map[index] & BITMAP_FIRST_WORD_MASK(start);
value_high = map[index + 1] & BITMAP_LAST_WORD_MASK(start + nbits);
return (value_low >> offset) | (value_high << space);
In case of bitmap_get_value8(), it's impossible to violate the boundary
because 'space >= nbits' is never the true for byte-aligned 8-bit access.
So, this is clearly a false-positive.
The same type of false-positives break my allmodconfig build in many
places. gcc-8, is clear, however.
