Pull kmemleak patches from Catalin Marinas:
"Kmemleak now scans all the writable and non-executable module sections
to avoid false positives (previously it was only scanning specific
sections and missing .ref.data)."

kmemleak: No need for scanning specific module sections
kmemleak: Scan all allocated, writeable and not executable module sections
|

As kmemleak now scans all module sections that are allocated, writable
and non executable, there's no need to scan individual sections that
might reference data.

Instead of just picking data sections by name (names that start
with .data, .bss or .ref.data), use the section flags and scan all
sections that are allocated, writable and not executable. Which should
cover all sections of a module that might reference data.

Pull workqueue fixes from Tejun Heo:
"Three more workqueue regression fixes.
- Fix unbalanced unlock in trylock failure path of manage_workers().
This shouldn't happen often in the wild but is possible.
- While making schedule_work() and friends inline, they become
unavailable to !GPL modules. Allow !GPL modules to access basic
stuff - system_wq and queue_*work_on() - so that schedule_work()
and friends can be used.
- During boot, the unbound NUMA support code allocates a cpumask for
each possible node using alloc_cpumask_var_node(), which ends up
trying to allocate node-specific memory even for offline nodes
triggering BUG in the memory alloc code. Use NUMA_NO_NODE for
offline nodes."

argv_split(empty_or_all_spaces) happily succeeds, it simply returns
argc == 0 and argv[0] == NULL. Change call_usermodehelper_exec() to
check sub_info->path != NULL to avoid the crash.
This is the minimal fix, todo:
- perhaps we should change argv_split() to return NULL or change the
callers.
- kill or justify ->path[0] check
- narrow the scope of helper_lock()

wq_numa_init()
wq_numa_init() builds per-node cpumasks which are later used to make
unbound workqueues NUMA-aware. The cpumasks are allocated using
alloc_cpumask_var_node() for all possible nodes. Unfortunately, on
machines with off-line nodes, this leads to NUMA-aware allocations on
existing bug offline nodes, which in turn triggers BUG in the memory
allocation code.
Fix it by using NUMA_NO_NODE for cpumask allocations for offline
nodes.

write-side uses rcu_assign_pointer() for memory barrier,
the read-side also has to use rcu_dereference_raw() with

When rcu_init() is called we already have slab working, allocating
bootmem at that point results in warnings and an allocation from
slab. This commit therefore changes alloc_bootmem_cpumask_var() to
alloc_cpumask_var() in rcu_bootup_announce_oddness(), which is called
from rcu_init().

Kay Sievers noted that the ALWAYS_USE_PERSISTENT_CLOCK config,
which enables some minor compile time optimization to avoid
uncessary code in mostly the suspend/resume path could cause
problems for userland.
In particular, the dependency for RTC_HCTOSYS on
!ALWAYS_USE_PERSISTENT_CLOCK, which avoids setting the time
twice and simplifies suspend/resume, has the side effect
of causing the /sys/class/rtc/rtcN/hctosys flag to always be
zero, and this flag is commonly used by udev to setup the
/dev/rtc symlink to /dev/rtcN, which can cause pain for
older applications.
While the udev rules could use some work to be less fragile,
breaking userland should strongly be avoided. Additionally
the compile time optimizations are fairly minor, and the code
being optimized is likely to be reworked in the future, so
lets revert this change.

Commit 8425e3d5bdbe ("workqueue: inline trivial wrappers") changed
schedule_work() and schedule_delayed_work() to inline wrappers,
but these rely on some symbols that are EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL, while
the original functions were EXPORT_SYMBOL. This has the effect of
changing the licensing requirement for these functions and making
them unavailable to non GPL modules.
Make them available again by removing the restriction on the
required symbols.

Commit c0f4dfd4f (rcu: Make RCU_FAST_NO_HZ take advantage of numbered
callbacks) introduced a bug that can result in excessively long grace
periods. This bug reverse the senes of the "if" statement checking
for lazy callbacks, so that RCU takes a lazy approach when there are
in fact non-lazy callbacks. This can result in excessive boot, suspend,
and resume times.
This commit therefore fixes the sense of this "if" statement.

An inactive timer's base can refer to a offline cpu's base.
In the current code, cpu_base's lock is blindly reinitialized each
time a CPU is brought up. If a CPU is brought online during the period
that another thread is trying to modify an inactive timer on that CPU
with holding its timer base lock, then the lock will be reinitialized
under its feet. This leads to following SPIN_BUG().

As an example, this particular crash occurred when CPU #3 is executing
mod_timer() on an inactive timer whose base is refered to offlined CPU
#2. The code locked the timer_base corresponding to CPU #2. Before it
could proceed, CPU #2 came online and reinitialized the spinlock
corresponding to its base. Thus now CPU #3 held a lock which was
reinitialized. When CPU #3 finally ended up unlocking the old cpu_base
corresponding to CPU #2, we hit the above SPIN_BUG().

Allocation of per_cpu timer vector bases is done only once under

of base->lock isn't under this check. When a CPU is up each time the
base lock is reinitialized. Move base spinlock initialization under
the check.

The warning is that 'rdtp->dynticks' has an unexpected value, which roughly
translates to - the calls to rcu_idle_enter() and rcu_idle_exit() were not
made in the correct order, or otherwise messed up.
And Bjørn's painstaking debugging indicated that this happens when the idle
loop enters the poll mode. Looking at the poll function cpu_idle_poll(), and
the implementation of trace_cpu_idle_rcuidle(), the problem becomes very clear:
cpu_idle_poll() lacks calls to rcu_idle_enter/exit(), and trace_cpu_idle_rcuidle()
calls them in the reverse order - first rcu_idle_exit(), and then rcu_idle_enter().
Hence the even/odd alternative sequencing of rdtp->dynticks goes for a toss.
And powertop readily triggers this because powertop uses the idle-tracing
infrastructure extensively.
So, to fix this, wrap the code in cpu_idle_poll() within rcu_idle_enter/exit(),
so that it blends properly with the calls inside trace_cpu_idle_rcuidle() and
thus get the function ordering right.

commit 5b39939a4 (nohz: Move ts->idle_calls incrementation into strict
idle logic) moved code out of tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() and missed
to bail out when the cpu is offline. That's causing subsequent
failures as an offline CPU is supposed to die and not to fiddle with
nohz magic.
Return false in can_stop_idle_tick() if the cpu is offline.

Prarit reported a crash on CPU offline/online. The reason is that on
CPU down the NOHZ related per cpu data of the dead cpu is not cleaned
up. If at cpu online an interrupt happens before the per cpu tick
device is registered the irq_enter() check potentially sees stale data
and dereferences a NULL pointer.
Cleanup the data after the cpu is dead.

This also includes a compile fix for some archs that select the ring

node number
df2d5ae499 ("workqueue: map an unbound workqueues to multiple per-node
pool_workqueues") made unbound workqueues to map to multiple per-node
pool_workqueues and accordingly updated workqueue_contested() so that,
for unbound workqueues, it maps the specified @cpu to the NUMA node
number to obtain the matching pool_workqueue to query the congested
state.
Before this change, workqueue_congested() ignored @cpu for unbound
workqueues as there was only one pool_workqueue and some users
(fscache) called it with WORK_CPU_UNBOUND. After the commit, this
causes the following oops as WORK_CPU_UNBOUND gets translated to
garbage by cpu_to_node().

When the first function probe is added and the function tracer
is updated the functions are modified to call the probe.
But when a second function is added, it updates the function
records to have the second function also update, but it fails
to update the actual function itself.
This prevents the second (or third or forth and so on) probes
from having their functions called.

The enabled_functions debugfs file was created to be able to see
what functions have been modified from nops to calling a tracer.
The current method uses the counter in the function record.
As when a ftrace_ops is registered to a function, its count
increases. But that doesn't mean that the function is actively
being traced. /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled can be set to zero
which would disable it, as well as something can go wrong and
we can think its enabled when only the counter is set.
The record's FTRACE_FL_ENABLED flag is set or cleared when its
function is modified. That is a much more accurate way of knowing
what function is enabled or not.

Both __trace_add_new_event() and __trace_early_add_new_event() do
basically the same thing, except that __trace_add_new_event() does
a little more.
Instead of having duplicate code between the two functions, add
a helper function trace_create_new_event() that both can use.
This will help against having bugs fixed in one function but not
the other.

Modify soft-mode flag only if no other soft-mode referrer
(currently only the ftrace triggers) by using a reference
counter in each ftrace_event_file.
Without this fix, adding and removing several different
enable/disable_event triggers on the same event clear
soft-mode bit from the ftrace_event_file. This also
happens with a typo of glob on setting triggers.
e.g.
# echo vfs_symlink:enable_event:net:netif_rx > set_ftrace_filter
# cat events/net/netif_rx/enable
0*
# echo typo_func:enable_event:net:netif_rx > set_ftrace_filter
# cat events/net/netif_rx/enable
0
# cat set_ftrace_filter
#### all functions enabled ####
vfs_symlink:enable_event:net:netif_rx:unlimited
As above, we still have a trigger, but soft-mode is gone.

Cleanup regex_lock and ftrace_lock locking points around
ftrace_ops hash update code.
The new rule is that regex_lock protects ops->*_hash
read-update-write code for each ftrace_ops. Usually,
hash update is done by following sequence.
1. allocate a new local hash and copy the original hash.
2. update the local hash.
3. move(actually, copy) back the local hash to ftrace_ops.
4. update ftrace entries if needed.
5. release the local hash.
This makes regex_lock protect #1-#4, and ftrace_lock
to protect #3, #4 and adding and removing ftrace_ops from the
ftrace_ops_list. The ftrace_lock protects #3 as well because
the move functions update the entries too.

other info that might help us debug this:
Possible unsafe locking scenario:
CPU0
----
lock(ftrace_regex_lock);
lock(ftrace_regex_lock);
*** DEADLOCK ***
----
To fix that, this introduces a finer regex_lock for each ftrace_ops.
ftrace_regex_lock is too big of a lock which protects all
filter/notrace_hash operations, but it doesn't need to be a global
lock after supporting multiple ftrace_ops because each ftrace_ops
has its own filter/notrace_hash.

As ftrace_regex_write() reads the result of ftrace_process_regex()
which can sometimes return a positive number, only consider a
failure if the return is negative. Otherwise, it will skip possible
other registered probes and by returning a positive number that
wasn't read, it will confuse the user processes doing the writing.

event_enable_func()
register_ftrace_function_probe() returns the number of functions
it registered, which can be zero, it can also return a negative number
if something went wrong. But event_enable_func() only checks for
the case that it didn't register anything, it needs to also check
for the case that something went wrong and return that error code
as well.
Added some comments about the code as well, to make it more
understandable.

Return 0 instead of the number of activated ftrace function probes if
event_enable_func succeeded and return an error code if it failed or
did not register any functions. But it currently returns the number
of registered functions and if it didn't register anything, it returns 0,
but that is considered success.
This also fixes the return value. As if it succeeds, it returns the
number of functions that were enabled, which is returned back to
the user in ftrace_regex_write (the write() return code). If only
one function is enabled, then the return code of the write is one,
and this can confuse the user program in thinking it only wrote 1
byte.
