Pull scheduler fix from Thomas Gleixner: "A single scheduler fix: Prevent idle task from ever being preempted. That makes sure that synchronize_rcu_tasks() which is ignoring idle task does not pretend that no task is stuck in preempted state. If that happens and idle was preempted on a ftrace trampoline the machine crashes due to inconsistent state" * 'sched-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: sched/core: Call __schedule() from do_idle() without enabling preemption

It also creates a selftest that triggers that bug. - Fix the delayed optimization happening after kprobes boot up self tests being removed by freeing of init memory. - Comment kprobes on why the delay optimization is not a problem for removal of modules, to keep other developers from searching that riddle. - Fix another case of rcu not watching in stack trace tracing. * tag 'trace-v4.12-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: tracing: Make sure RCU is watching before calling a stack trace kprobes: Document how optimized kprobes are removed from module unload selftests/ftrace: Add test to remove instance with active event triggers selftests/ftrace: Fix bashisms ftrace: Remove #ifdef from code and add clear_ftrace_function_probes() stub ftrace/instances: Clear function triggers when removing instances ftrace: Simplify glob handling in unregister_ftrace_function_probe_func() tracing/kprobes: Enforce kprobes teardown after testing tracing: Move postpone selftests to core from early_initcall

blktrace: fix integer parse

2017-05-19T15:21:15Z

sscanf is a very poor way to parse integer. For example, I input "discard" for act_mask, it gets 0xd and completely messes up. Using correct API to do integer parse. This patch also makes attributes accept any base of integer. Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

tracing: Make sure RCU is watching before calling a stack trace

2017-05-19T03:57:56Z

As stack tracing now requires "rcu watching", force RCU to be watching when recording a stack trace. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170512172449.879684501@goodmis.org Acked-by: Paul E. McKenney Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware)

bpf: adjust verifier heuristics

2017-05-18T02:55:27Z

Current limits with regards to processing program paths do not really reflect today's needs anymore due to programs becoming more complex and verifier smarter, keeping track of more data such as const ALU operations, alignment tracking, spilling of PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_ADJ registers, and other features allowing for smarter matching of what LLVM generates. This also comes with the side-effect that we result in fewer opportunities to prune search states and thus often need to do more work to prove safety than in the past due to different register states and stack layout where we mismatch. Generally, it's quite hard to determine what caused a sudden increase in complexity, it could be caused by something as trivial as a single branch somewhere at the beginning of the program where LLVM assigned a stack slot that is marked differently throughout other branches and thus causing a mismatch, where verifier then needs to prove safety for the whole rest of the program. Subsequently, programs with even less than half the insn size limit can get rejected. We noticed that while some programs load fine under pre 4.11, they get rejected due to hitting limits on more recent kernels. We saw that in the vast majority of cases (90+%) pruning failed due to register mismatches. In case of stack mismatches, majority of cases failed due to different stack slot types (invalid, spill, misc) rather than differences in spilled registers. This patch makes pruning more aggressive by also adding markers that sit at conditional jumps as well. Currently, we only mark jump targets for pruning. For example in direct packet access, these are usually error paths where we bail out. We found that adding these markers, it can reduce number of processed insns by up to 30%. Another option is to ignore reg->id in probing PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_OR_NULL registers, which can help pruning slightly as well by up to 7% observed complexity reduction as stand-alone. Meaning, if a previous path with register type PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_OR_NULL for map X was found to be safe, then in the current state a PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_OR_NULL register for the same map X must be safe as well. Last but not least the patch also adds a scheduling point and bumps the current limit for instructions to be processed to a more adequate value.

kprobes: Document how optimized kprobes are removed from module unload

2017-05-18T01:55:58Z

Thomas discovered a bug where the kprobe trace tests had a race condition where the kprobe_optimizer called from a delayed work queue that does the optimizing and "unoptimizing" of a kprobe, can try to modify the text after it has been freed by the init code. The kprobe trace selftest is a special case, and Thomas and myself investigated to see if there's a chance that this could also be a bug with module unloading, as the code is not obvious to how it handles this. After adding lots of printks, I figured it out. Thomas suggested that this should be commented so that others will not have to go through this exercise again.
