commit 6fdda9a9c5 upstream.
As part of normal operaions, the hrtimer subsystem frequently calls
into the timekeeping code, creating a locking order of
hrtimer locks -> timekeeping locks
clock_was_set_delayed() was suppoed to allow us to avoid deadlocks
between the timekeeping the hrtimer subsystem, so that we could
notify the hrtimer subsytem the time had changed while holding
the timekeeping locks. This was done by scheduling delayed work
that would run later once we were out of the timekeeing code.
But unfortunately the lock chains are complex enoguh that in
scheduling delayed work, we end up eventually trying to grab
an hrtimer lock.
Sasha Levin noticed this in testing when the new seqlock lockdep
enablement triggered the following (somewhat abrieviated) message:

So the best solution is to avoid calling clock_was_set_delayed() while
holding the timekeeping lock, and instead using a flag variable to
decide if we should call clock_was_set() once we've released the locks.
This works for the case here, where the do_adjtimex() was the deadlock
trigger point. Unfortuantely, in update_wall_time() we still hold
the jiffies lock, which would deadlock with the ipi triggered by
clock_was_set(), preventing us from calling it even after we drop the
timekeeping lock. So instead call clock_was_set_delayed() at that point.

commit 330a1617b0 upstream.
Since 48cdc135d4 (Implement a shadow timekeeper), we have to
call timekeeping_update() after any adjustment to the timekeeping
structure in order to make sure that any adjustments to the structure
persist.
In the timekeeping suspend path, we udpate the timekeeper
structure, so we should be sure to update the shadow-timekeeper
before releasing the timekeeping locks. Currently this isn't done.
In most cases, the next time related code to run would be
timekeeping_resume, which does update the shadow-timekeeper, but
in an abundence of caution, this patch adds the call to
timekeeping_update() in the suspend path.

Since 48cdc135d4 (Implement a shadow timekeeper), we have to
call timekeeping_update() after any adjustment to the timekeeping
structure in order to make sure that any adjustments to the structure

Unfortunately, the updates to the tai offset via adjtimex do not
trigger this update, causing adjustments to the tai offset to be
made and then over-written by the previous value at the next
update_wall_time() call.
This patch resovles the issue by calling timekeeping_update()
right after setting the tai offset.

commit 23a8e8441a upstream.
Doing some different tests, I discovered that function graph tracing, when
filtered via the set_ftrace_filter and set_ftrace_notrace files, does
not always keep with them if another function ftrace_ops is registered
to trace functions.
The reason is that function graph just happens to trace all functions
that the function tracer enables. When there was only one user of
function tracing, the function graph tracer did not need to worry about
being called by functions that it did not want to trace. But now that there
are other users, this becomes a problem.
For example, one just needs to do the following:
# cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
# echo schedule > set_ftrace_filter
# echo function_graph > current_tracer
# cat trace

When the stack tracer was enabled, it enabled all functions to be traced, which
now the function graph tracer also traces. This is a side effect that should
not occur.
To fix this a test is added when the function tracing is changed, as well as when
the graph tracer is enabled, to see if anything other than the ftrace global_ops
function tracer is enabled. If so, then the graph tracer calls a test trampoline
that will look at the function that is being traced and compare it with the
filters defined by the global_ops.
As an optimization, if there's no other function tracers registered, or if
the only registered function tracers also use the global ops, the function
graph infrastructure will call the registered function graph callback directly
and not go through the test trampoline.

The synchronization needed after ftrace_ops are unregistered must happen
after the callback is disabled from becing called by functions.
The current location happens after the function is being removed from the
internal lists, but not after the function callbacks were disabled, leaving
the functions susceptible of being called after their callbacks are freed.
This affects perf and any externel users of function tracing (LTTng and

commit 405e1d8348 upstream.
ftrace_trace_function is a variable that holds what function will be called
directly by the assembly code (mcount). If just a single function is
registered and it handles recursion itself, then the assembly will call that
function directly without any helper function. It also passes in the
ftrace_op that was registered with the callback. The ftrace_op to send is
stored in the function_trace_op variable.
The ftrace_trace_function and function_trace_op needs to be coordinated such
that the called callback wont be called with the wrong ftrace_op, otherwise
bad things can happen if it expected a different op. Luckily, there's no
callback that doesn't use the helper functions that requires this. But
there soon will be and this needs to be fixed.
Use a set_function_trace_op to store the ftrace_op to set the
function_trace_op to when it is safe to do so (during the update function
within the breakpoint or stop machine calls). Or if dynamic ftrace is not
being used (static tracing) then we have to do a bit more synchronization
when the ftrace_trace_function is set as that takes affect immediately
(as oppose to dynamic ftrace doing it with the modification of the trampoline).

The trace buffer has a descriptor pointer that goes back to the trace

it will in the future.
Although nothing currently uses this, if any of the new features get

I'm marking it for stable too.

There is an error scenario where on a 1x1 HMP system (weight of the
hmp_slow_cpu_mask is 1) the short-cut of restricting the allowed cpu mask
of an rt tasks leads to triggering a kernel bug in the rt sched class
set_cpus_allowed function set_cpus_allowed_rt().
In case the task is on the run-queue and the weight of the required cpu mask
is 1 and this is different to the p->nr_cpus_allowed value, this back-end
function interprets this in such a way that a task changed from being
migratable to not migratable anymore and decrements the rt_nr_migratory
counter. There is a BUG_ON(!rq->rt.rt_nr_migratory) check in this code
path which triggers in this situation.
To circumvent this issue, set the number of allowed cpus for a task p to
the weight of the hmp_slow_cpu_mask before calling do_set_cpus_allowed()
in __setscheduler(). It will be set to this value in do_set_cpus_allowed()
after the call to the sched class related backend function any way. By
doing this, set_cpus_allowed_rt() returns without trying to update the
rt_nr_migratory counter.

If we migrate a sleeping task away from a CPU which has the

be out of date for that CPU and we will not decay load correctly

the CPU the task previously ran on has had the tick stopped.

If an entity happens to sleep for less than one tick duration
the tracked load associated with that entity can be decayed by an
unexpectedly large amount if it is later migrated to a different
CPU. This can interfere with correct scheduling when entity load
is used for decision making.
The reason for this is that when an entity is dequeued and enqueued
quickly, such that se.avg.decay_count and cfs_rq.decay_counter
do not differ when that entity is enqueued again,
__synchronize_entity_decay skips the calculation step and also skips
clearing the decay_count. At a later time that entity may be
migrated and its load will be decayed incorrectly.
All users of this function expect decay_count to be zero'ed after
use.
