sched/core: Initialize the idle task with preemption disabled

2021-07-14T14:59:16Z

[ Upstream commit f1a0a376ca0c4ef1fc3d24e3e502acbb5b795674 ] As pointed out by commit de9b8f5dcbd9 ("sched: Fix crash trying to dequeue/enqueue the idle thread") init_idle() can and will be invoked more than once on the same idle task. At boot time, it is invoked for the boot CPU thread by sched_init(). Then smp_init() creates the threads for all the secondary CPUs and invokes init_idle() on them. As the hotplug machinery brings the secondaries to life, it will issue calls to idle_thread_get(), which itself invokes init_idle() yet again. In this case it's invoked twice more per secondary: at _cpu_up(), and at bringup_cpu(). Given smp_init() already initializes the idle tasks for all *possible* CPUs, no further initialization should be required. Now, removing init_idle() from idle_thread_get() exposes some interesting expectations with regards to the idle task's preempt_count: the secondary startup always issues a preempt_disable(), requiring some reset of the preempt count to 0 between hot-unplug and hotplug, which is currently served by idle_thread_get() -> idle_init(). Given the idle task is supposed to have preemption disabled once and never see it re-enabled, it seems that what we actually want is to initialize its preempt_count to PREEMPT_DISABLED and leave it there. Do that, and remove init_idle() from idle_thread_get().

pid: take a reference when initializing `cad_pid`

2021-06-10T11:41:45Z

commit 0711f0d7050b9e07c44bc159bbc64ac0a1022c7f upstream. During boot, kernel_init_freeable() initializes `cad_pid` to the init task's struct pid. Later on, we may change `cad_pid` via a sysctl, and when this happens proc_do_cad_pid() will increment the refcount on the new pid via get_pid(), and will decrement the refcount on the old pid via put_pid(). As we never called get_pid() when we initialized `cad_pid`, we decrement a reference we never incremented, can therefore free the init task's struct pid early. As there can be dangling references to the struct pid, we can later encounter a use-after-free (e.g. when delivering signals). This was spotted when fuzzing v5.13-rc3 with Syzkaller, but seems to have been around since the conversion of `cad_pid` to struct pid in commit 9ec52099e4b8 ("[PATCH] replace cad_pid by a struct pid") from the pre-KASAN stone age of v2.6.19. Fix this by getting a reference to the init task's struct pid when we assign it to `cad_pid`.

init/Kconfig: make COMPILE_TEST depend on HAS_IOMEM

2021-03-13T19:27:30Z

I read the commit log of the following two: - bc083a64b6c0 ("init/Kconfig: make COMPILE_TEST depend on !UML") - 334ef6ed06fa ("init/Kconfig: make COMPILE_TEST depend on !S390") Both are talking about HAS_IOMEM dependency missing in many drivers. So, 'depends on HAS_IOMEM' seems the direct, sensible solution to me. This does not change the behavior of UML. UML still cannot enable COMPILE_TEST because it does not provide HAS_IOMEM. The current dependency for S390 is too strong. Under the condition of CONFIG_PCI=y, S390 provides HAS_IOMEM, hence can enable COMPILE_TEST. I also removed the meaningless 'default n'.

kbuild: rebuild GCC plugins when the compiler is upgraded

2021-03-11T05:40:50Z

Linus reported a build error due to the GCC plugin incompatibility when the compiler is upgraded. [1] GCC plugins are tied to a particular GCC version. So, they must be rebuilt when the compiler is upgraded. This seems to be a long-standing flaw since the initial support of GCC plugins. Extend commit 8b59cd81dc5e ("kbuild: ensure full rebuild when the compiler is updated"), so that GCC plugins are covered by the compiler upgrade detection.

kbuild: fix UNUSED_KSYMS_WHITELIST for Clang LTO

2021-02-28T06:19:21Z

Commit fbe078d397b4 ("kbuild: lto: add a default list of used symbols") does not work as expected if the .config file has already specified CONFIG_UNUSED_KSYMS_WHITELIST="my/own/white/list" before enabling CONFIG_LTO_CLANG. So, the user-supplied whitelist and LTO-specific white list must be independent of each other. I refactored the shell script so CONFIG_MODVERSIONS and CONFIG_CLANG_LTO handle whitelists in the same way.
