b87f02307d printk: Wait for the global console lock when the system is going down
There are reports that the console kthreads block the global console
lock when the system is going down, for example, reboot, panic.

First part of the solution was to block kthreads in these problematic
system states so they stopped handling newly added messages.

Second part of the solution is to wait when for the kthreads when
they are actively printing. It solves the problem when a message
was printed before the system entered the problematic state and
the kthreads managed to step in.

A busy waiting has to be used because panic() can be called in any
context and in an unknown state of the scheduler.

There must be a timeout because the kthread might get stuck or sleeping
and never release the lock. The timeout 10s is an arbitrary value
inspired by the softlockup timeout.

c3230283e2 printk: Block console kthreads when direct printing will be required
There are known situations when the console kthreads are not
reliable or does not work in principle, for example, early boot,
panic, shutdown.

For these situations there is the direct (legacy) mode when printk() tries
to get console_lock() and flush the messages directly. It works very well
during the early boot when the console kthreads are not available at all.
It gets more complicated in the other situations when console kthreads
might be actively printing and block console_trylock() in printk().

The same problem is in the legacy code as well. Any console_lock()
owner could block console_trylock() in printk(). It is solved by
a trick that the current console_lock() owner is responsible for
printing all pending messages. It is actually the reason why there
is the risk of softlockups and why the console kthreads were
introduced.

The console kthreads use the same approach. They are responsible
for printing the messages by definition. So that they handle
the messages anytime when they are awake and see new ones.
The global console_lock is available when there is nothing
to do.

It should work well when the problematic context is correctly
detected and printk() switches to the direct mode. But it seems
that it is not enough in practice. There are reports that
the messages are not printed during panic() or shutdown()
even though printk() tries to use the direct mode here.

The problem seems to be that console kthreads become active in these
situation as well. They steel the job before other CPUs are stopped.
Then they are stopped in the middle of the job and block the global
console_lock.

First part of the solution is to block console kthreads when
the system is in a problematic state and requires the direct
printk() mode.

2b8c612c61 kernel/reboot: Fix powering off using a non-syscall code paths
There are other methods of powering off machine than the reboot syscall.
Previously we missed to cover those methods and it created power-off
regression for some machines, like the PowerPC e500.

Fix this problem by moving the legacy sys-off handler registration to
the latest phase of power-off process and making the kernel_can_power_off()
check the legacy pm_power_off presence.

f858c2b2ca bpf: Fix calling global functions from BPF_PROG_TYPE_EXT programs
The verifier allows programs to call global functions as long as their
argument types match, using BTF to check the function arguments. One of the
allowed argument types to such global functions is PTR_TO_CTX; however the
check for this fails on BPF_PROG_TYPE_EXT functions because the verifier
uses the wrong type to fetch the vmlinux BTF ID for the program context
type. This failure is seen when an XDP program is loaded using
libxdp (which loads it as BPF_PROG_TYPE_EXT and attaches it to a global XDP
type program).

Fix the issue by passing in the target program type instead of the
BPF_PROG_TYPE_EXT type to bpf_prog_get_ctx() when checking function
argument compatibility.

The first Fixes tag refers to the latest commit that touched the code in
question, while the second one points to the code that first introduced
the global function call verification.

- Use resolve_prog_type()

c4f135d643 workqueue: Wrap flush_workqueue() using a macro
Since flush operation synchronously waits for completion, flushing
system-wide WQs (e.g. system_wq) might introduce possibility of deadlock
due to unexpected locking dependency. Tejun Heo commented at [1] that it
makes no sense at all to call flush_workqueue() on the shared WQs as the
caller has no idea what it's gonna end up waiting for.

Although there is flush_scheduled_work() which flushes system_wq WQ with
"Think twice before calling this function! It's very easy to get into
trouble if you don't take great care." warning message, syzbot found a
circular locking dependency caused by flushing system_wq WQ [2].

Therefore, let's change the direction to that developers had better use
their local WQs if flush_scheduled_work()/flush_workqueue(system_*_wq) is
inevitable.

Steps for converting system-wide WQs into local WQs are explained at [3],
and a conversion to stop flushing system-wide WQs is in progress. Now we
want some mechanism for preventing developers who are not aware of this
conversion from again start flushing system-wide WQs.

Since I found that WARN_ON() is complete but awkward approach for teaching
developers about this problem, let's use __compiletime_warning() for
incomplete but handy approach. For completeness, we will also insert
WARN_ON() into __flush_workqueue() after all in-tree users stopped calling
flush_scheduled_work().

3e684903a8 entry/kvm: Exit to user mode when TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL is set
A livepatch transition may stall indefinitely when a kvm vCPU is heavily
loaded. To the host, the vCPU task is a user thread which is spending a
very long time in the ioctl(KVM_RUN) syscall. During livepatch
transition, set_notify_signal() will be called on such tasks to
interrupt the syscall so that the task can be transitioned. This
interrupts guest execution, but when xfer_to_guest_mode_work() sees that
TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL is set but not TIF_SIGPENDING it concludes that an
exit to user mode is unnecessary, and guest execution is resumed without
transitioning the task for the livepatch.

This handling of TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL is incorrect, as set_notify_signal()
is expected to break tasks out of interruptible kernel loops and cause
them to return to userspace. Change xfer_to_guest_mode_work() to handle
TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL the same as TIF_SIGPENDING, signaling to the vCPU run
loop that an exit to userpsace is needed. Any pending task_work will be
run when get_signal() is called from exit_to_user_mode_loop(), so there
is no longer any need to run task work from xfer_to_guest_mode_work().

Pull ptrace_stop cleanups from Eric Biederman:
 "While looking at the ptrace problems with PREEMPT_RT and the problems
  Peter Zijlstra was encountering with ptrace in his freezer rewrite I
  identified some cleanups to ptrace_stop that make sense on their own
  and move make resolving the other problems much simpler.

  The biggest issue is the habit of the ptrace code to change
  task->__state from the tracer to suppress TASK_WAKEKILL from waking up
  the tracee. No other code in the kernel does that and it is straight
  forward to update signal_wake_up and friends to make that unnecessary.

  Peter's task freezer sets frozen tasks to a new state TASK_FROZEN and
  then it stores them by calling "wake_up_state(t, TASK_FROZEN)" relying
  on the fact that all stopped states except the special stop states can
  tolerate spurious wake up and recover their state.

  The state of stopped and traced tasked is changed to be stored in
  task->jobctl as well as in task->__state. This makes it possible for
  the freezer to recover tasks in these special states, as well as
  serving as a general cleanup. With a little more work in that
  direction I believe TASK_STOPPED can learn to tolerate spurious wake
  ups and become an ordinary stop state.

  The TASK_TRACED state has to remain a special state as the registers
  for a process are only reliably available when the process is stopped
  in the scheduler. Fundamentally ptrace needs acess to the saved
  register values of a task.

  There are bunch of semi-random ptrace related cleanups that were found
  while looking at these issues.

  One cleanup that deserves to be called out is from commit 57b6de08b5
  ("ptrace: Admit ptrace_stop can generate spuriuos SIGTRAPs"). This
  makes a change that is technically user space visible, in the handling
  of what happens to a tracee when a tracer dies unexpectedly. According
  to our testing and our understanding of userspace nothing cares that
  spurious SIGTRAPs can be generated in that case"
