runtime constants: deal with old decrepit linkers
The runtime constants linker script depended on documented linker behavior [1]: "If an output section’s name is the same as the input section’s name and is representable as a C identifier, then the linker will automatically PROVIDE two symbols: __start_SECNAME and __stop_SECNAME, where SECNAME is the name of the section. These indicate the start address and end address of the output section respectively" to just automatically define the symbol names for the bounds of the runtime constant arrays. It turns out that this isn't actually something we can rely on, with old linkers not generating these automatic symbols. It looks to have been introduced in binutils-2.29 back in 2017, and we still support building with versions all the way back to binutils-2.25 (from 2015). And yes, Oleg actually seems to be using such ancient versions of binutils. So instead of depending on the implicit symbols from "section names match and are representable C identifiers", just do this all manually. It's not like it causes us any extra pain, we already have to do that for all the other sections that we use that often have special characters in them.

runtime constants: add default dummy infrastructure
This adds the initial dummy support for 'runtime constants' for when an architecture doesn't actually support an implementation of fixing up said runtime constants. This ends up being the fallback to just using the variables as regular __ro_after_init variables, and changes the dcache d_hash() function to use this model.

sched_ext: Implement BPF extensible scheduler class
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

The usual shower of singleton fixes and minor series all over MM,

kallsyms: Avoid weak references for kallsyms symbols
kallsyms is a directory of all the symbols in the vmlinux binary, and so creating it is somewhat of a chicken-and-egg problem, as its non-zero size affects the layout of the binary, and therefore the values of the symbols. For this reason, the kernel is linked more than once, and the first pass does not include any kallsyms data at all. For the linker to accept this, the symbol declarations describing the kallsyms metadata are emitted as having weak linkage, so they can remain unsatisfied. During the subsequent passes, the weak references are satisfied by the kallsyms metadata that was constructed based on information gathered from the preceding passes. Weak references lead to somewhat worse codegen, because taking their address may need to produce NULL (if the reference was unsatisfied), and this is not usually supported by RIP or PC relative symbol references. Given that these references are ultimately always satisfied in the final link, let's drop the weak annotation, and instead, provide fallback definitions in the linker script that are only emitted if an unsatisfied reference exists. While at it, drop the FRV specific annotation that these symbols reside in .rodata - FRV is long gone.

lib: add allocation tagging support for memory allocation profiling
Introduce CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING which provides definitions to easily instrument memory allocators. It registers an "alloc_tags" codetag type with /proc/allocinfo interface to output allocation tag information when the feature is enabled. CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG is provided for debugging the memory allocation profiling instrumentation. Memory allocation profiling can be enabled or disabled at runtime using /proc/sys/vm/mem_profiling sysctl when CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG=n. CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_ENABLED_BY_DEFAULT enables memory allocation profiling by default.

x86: Rename __{start,end}_init_task to __{start,end}_init_stack
The stack of a task has been separated from the memory of a task_struct struture for a long time on x86, as a result __{start,end}_init_task no longer mark the start and end of the init_task structure, but its stack only. Rename __{start,end}_init_task to __{start,end}_init_stack. Note other architectures are not affected because __{start,end}_init_task are used on x86 only.

treewide: update LLVM Bugzilla links
LLVM moved their issue tracker from their own Bugzilla instance to GitHub issues. While all of the links are still valid, they may not necessarily show the most up to date information around the issues, as all updates will occur on GitHub, not Bugzilla. Another complication is that the Bugzilla issue number is not always the same as the GitHub issue number. Thankfully, LLVM maintains this mapping through two shortlinks: https://llvm.org/bz<num> -> https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=<num> https://llvm.org/pr<num> -> https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/<mapped_num> Switch all "https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=<num>" links to the "https://llvm.org/pr<num>" shortlink so that the links show the most up to date information. Each migrated issue links back to the Bugzilla entry, so there should be no loss of fidelity of information here.

kunit: move KUNIT_TABLE out of INIT_DATA
Alter the linker section of KUNIT_TABLE to move it out of INIT_DATA and into DATA_DATA. Data for KUnit tests does not need to be in the init section. In order to run tests again after boot the KUnit data cannot be labeled as init data as the kernel could write over it. Add a KUNIT_INIT_TABLE in the next patch for KUnit tests that test init data/functions.

Merge patch series "riscv: enable HAVE_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION"
Jisheng Zhang <jszhang@kernel.org> says:
When trying to run linux with various opensource riscv core on
resource limited FPGA platforms, for example, those FPGAs with less
than 16MB SDRAM, I want to save mem as much as possible. One of the
major technologies is kernel size optimizations, I found that riscv
does not currently support HAVE_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION, which
passes -fdata-sections, -ffunction-sections to CFLAGS and passes the
--gc-sections flag to the linker.
This not only benefits my case on FPGA but also benefits defconfigs.
Here are some notable improvements from enabling this with defconfigs:

vmlinux.lds.h: Discard .note.gnu.property section
When tooling reads ELF notes, it assumes each note entry is aligned to the value listed in the .note section header's sh_addralign field. The kernel-created ELF notes in the .note.Linux and .note.Xen sections are aligned to 4 bytes. This causes the toolchain to set those sections' sh_addralign values to 4. On the other hand, the GCC-created .note.gnu.property section has an sh_addralign value of 8 for some reason, despite being based on struct Elf32_Nhdr which only needs 4-byte alignment. When the mismatched input sections get linked together into the vmlinux .notes output section, the higher alignment "wins", resulting in an sh_addralign of 8, which confuses tooling. For example: $ readelf -n .tmp_vmlinux.btf ... readelf: .tmp_vmlinux.btf: Warning: note with invalid namesz and/or descsz found at offset 0x170 readelf: .tmp_vmlinux.btf: Warning: type: 0x4, namesize: 0x006e6558, descsize: 0x00008801, alignment: 8 In this case readelf thinks there's alignment padding where there is none, so it starts reading an ELF note in the middle. With newer toolchains (e.g., latest Fedora Rawhide), a similar mismatch triggers a build failure when combined with CONFIG_X86_KERNEL_IBT: btf_encoder__encode: btf__dedup failed! Failed to encode BTF libbpf: failed to find '.BTF' ELF section in vmlinux FAILED: load BTF from vmlinux: No data available make[1]: *** [scripts/Makefile.vmlinux:35: vmlinux] Error 255 This latter error was caused by pahole crashing when it encountered the corrupt .notes section. This crash has been fixed in dwarves version 1.25. As Tianyi Liu describes: "Pahole reads .notes to look for LINUX_ELFNOTE_BUILD_LTO. When LTO is enabled, pahole needs to call cus__merge_and_process_cu to merge compile units, at which point there should only be one unspecified type (used to represent some compilation information) in the global context. However, when the kernel is compiled without LTO, if pahole calls cus__merge_and_process_cu due to alignment issues with notes, multiple unspecified types may appear after merging the cus, and older versions of pahole only support up to one. This is why pahole 1.24 crashes, while newer versions support multiple. However, the latest version of pahole still does not solve the problem of incorrect LTO recognition, so compiling the kernel may be slower than normal." Even with the newer pahole, the note section misaligment issue still exists and pahole is misinterpreting the LTO note. Fix it by discarding the .note.gnu.property section. While GNU properties are important for user space (and VDSO), they don't seem to have any use for vmlinux. (In fact, they're already getting (inadvertently) stripped from vmlinux when CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF is enabled. The BTF data is extracted from vmlinux.o with "objcopy --only-section=.BTF" into .btf.vmlinux.bin.o. That file doesn't have .note.gnu.property, so when it gets modified and linked back into the main object, the linker automatically strips it (see "How GNU properties are merged" in the ld man page).)

Driver Core changes for 6.2-rc1
Here is the set of driver core and kernfs changes for 6.2-rc1. The "big" change in here is the addition of a new macro, container_of_const() that will preserve the "const-ness" of a pointer passed into it. The "problem" of the current container_of() macro is that if you pass in a "const *", out of it can comes a non-const pointer unless you specifically ask for it. For many usages, we want to preserve the "const" attribute by using the same call. For a specific example, this series changes the kobj_to_dev() macro to use it, allowing it to be used no matter what the const value is. This prevents every subsystem from having to declare 2 different individual macros (i.e. kobj_const_to_dev() and kobj_to_dev()) and having the compiler enforce the const value at build time, which having 2 macros would not do either. The driver for all of this have been discussions with the Rust kernel developers as to how to properly mark driver core, and kobject, objects as being "non-mutable". The changes to the kobject and driver core in this pull request are the result of that, as there are lots of paths where kobjects and device pointers are not modified at all, so marking them as "const" allows the compiler to enforce this. So, a nice side affect of the Rust development effort has been already to clean up the driver core code to be more obvious about object rules. All of this has been bike-shedded in quite a lot of detail on lkml with different names and implementations resulting in the tiny version we have in here, much better than my original proposal. Lots of subsystem maintainers have acked the changes as well. Other than this change, included in here are smaller stuff like: - kernfs fixes and updates to handle lock contention better - vmlinux.lds.h fixes and updates - sysfs and debugfs documentation updates - device property updates All of these have been in the linux-next tree for quite a while with no problems, OTHER than some merge issues with other trees that should be obvious when you hit them (block tree deletes a driver that this tree modifies, iommufd tree modifies code that this tree also touches).

- Add the call depth tracking mitigation for Retbleed which has
been long in the making. It is a lighterweight software-only fix for Skylake-based cores where enabling IBRS is a big hammer and causes a significant performance impact.

vmlinux.lds.h: add HEADERED_SECTION_* macros
These macros elaborate on BOUNDED_SECTION_(PRE|POST)_LABEL macros, prepending an optional KEEP(.gnu.linkonce##_sec_) reservation, and a linker-symbol to address it. This allows a developer to define a header struct (which must fit with the section's base struct-type), and could contain: 1- fields whose value is common to the entire set of data-records. This allows the header & data structs to specialize, complement each other, and shrink. 2- an uplink pointer to an organizing struct which refs other related/sub data-tables header record is addressable via the extern'd header linker-symbol Once the linker-symbols created by the macro are ref'd extern in code, that code can compute a record's index (ptr - start) in the "primary" table, then use it to index into the related/sub tables. Adding a primary.map_* field foreach sub-table would then allow deduplication and remapping of that sub-table. This is aimed at dyndbg's struct _ddebug __dyndbg[] section, whose 3 columns: function, file, module are 50%, 90%, 100% redundant. The module column is fully recoverable after dynamic_debug_init() saves it to each ddebug_table.module as the builtin __dyndbg[] table is parsed. Given that those 3 columns use 24/56 of a _ddebug record, a dyndbg=y kernel with ~5k callsites could reduce kernel memory substantially. Returning that memory to the kernel buddy-allocator? is then possible.

vmlinux.lds.h: place optional header space in BOUNDED_SECTION
Extend recently added BOUNDED_SECTION(_name) macro by adding a KEEP(*(.gnu.linkonce.##_name)) before the KEEP(*(_name)). This does nothing by itself, vmlinux is the same before and after this patch. But if a developer adds a .gnu.linkonce.foo record, that record is placed in the front of the section, where it can be used as a header for the table. The intent is to create an up-link to another organizing struct, from where related tables can be referenced. And since every item in a table has a known offset from its header, that same offset can be used to fetch records from the related tables. By itself, this doesnt gain much, unless maybe the pattern of access is to scan 1 or 2 fields in each fat record, but with 2 16 bit .map* fields added, we could de-duplicate 2 related tables. The use case here is struct _ddebug, which has 3 pointers (function, file, module) with substantial repetition; respectively 53%, 90%, and the module column is fully recoverable after dynamic_debug_init() splits the table into a linked list of "module" chunks. On a DYNAMIC_DEBUG=y kernel with 5k pr_debugs, the memory savings should be ~100 KiB.

arm64: unwind: add asynchronous unwind tables to kernel and modules
Enable asynchronous unwind table generation for both the core kernel as well as modules, and emit the resulting .eh_frame sections as init code so we can use the unwind directives for code patching at boot or module load time. This will be used by dynamic shadow call stack support, which will rely on code patching rather than compiler codegen to emit the shadow call stack push and pop instructions.
