hrtimer/treewide: Use hrtimer_sleeper_start_expires()

2019-08-01T15:43:16Z

hrtimer_sleepers will gain a scheduling class dependent treatment on PREEMPT_RT. Use the new hrtimer_sleeper_start_expires() function to make that possible. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner

hrtimer: Consolidate hrtimer_init() + hrtimer_init_sleeper() calls

2019-08-01T15:43:15Z

hrtimer_init_sleeper() calls require prior initialisation of the hrtimer object which is embedded into the hrtimer_sleeper. Combine the initialization and spare a function call. Fixup all call sites. This is also a preparatory change for PREEMPT_RT to do hrtimer sleeper specific initializations of the embedded hrtimer without modifying any of the call sites. No functional change.

hrtimer: Remove task argument from hrtimer_init_sleeper()

2019-07-30T21:57:51Z

All callers hand in 'current' and that's the only task pointer which actually makes sense. Remove the task argument and set current in the function.

mm/gup: change GUP fast to use flags rather than a write 'bool'

2019-05-14T16:47:46Z

To facilitate additional options to get_user_pages_fast() change the singular write parameter to be gup_flags. This patch does not change any functionality. New functionality will follow in subsequent patches. Some of the get_user_pages_fast() call sites were unchanged because they already passed FOLL_WRITE or 0 for the write parameter. NOTE: It was suggested to change the ordering of the get_user_pages_fast() arguments to ensure that callers were converted. This breaks the current GUP call site convention of having the returned pages be the final parameter. So the suggestion was rejected.

locking/futex: Allow low-level atomic operations to return -EAGAIN

2019-04-26T12:57:31Z

Some futex() operations, including FUTEX_WAKE_OP, require the kernel to perform an atomic read-modify-write of the futex word via the userspace mapping. These operations are implemented by each architecture in arch_futex_atomic_op_inuser() and futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic(), which are called in atomic context with the relevant hash bucket locks held. Although these routines may return -EFAULT in response to a page fault generated when accessing userspace, they are expected to succeed (i.e. return 0) in all other cases. This poses a problem for architectures that do not provide bounded forward progress guarantees or fairness of contended atomic operations and can lead to starvation in some cases. In these problematic scenarios, we must return back to the core futex code so that we can drop the hash bucket locks and reschedule if necessary, much like we do in the case of a page fault. Allow architectures to return -EAGAIN from their implementations of arch_futex_atomic_op_inuser() and futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic(), which will cause the core futex code to reschedule if necessary and return back to the architecture code later on.

futex: Ensure that futex address is aligned in handle_futex_death()

2019-03-22T12:05:26Z

The futex code requires that the user space addresses of futexes are 32bit aligned. sys_futex() checks this in futex_get_keys() but the robust list code has no alignment check in place. As a consequence the kernel crashes on architectures with strict alignment requirements in handle_futex_death() when trying to cmpxchg() on an unaligned futex address which was retrieved from the robust list.

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar: "The biggest part of this tree is the new auto-generated atomics API wrappers by Mark Rutland. The primary motivation was to allow instrumentation without uglifying the primary source code. The linecount increase comes from adding the auto-generated files to the Git space as well: include/asm-generic/atomic-instrumented.h | 1689 ++++++++++++++++-- include/asm-generic/atomic-long.h | 1174 ++++++++++--- include/linux/atomic-fallback.h | 2295 +++++++++++++++++++++++++ include/linux/atomic.h | 1241 +------------ I preferred this approach, so that the full call stack of the (already complex) locking APIs is still fully visible in 'git grep'. But if this is excessive we could certainly hide them. There's a separate build-time mechanism to determine whether the headers are out of date (they should never be stale if we do our job right). Anyway, nothing from this should be visible to regular kernel developers. Other changes: - Add support for dynamic keys, which removes a source of false positives in the workqueue code, among other things (Bart Van Assche) - Updates to tools/memory-model (Andrea Parri, Paul E.
