e61c236dcf sched/psi: Fix OOB write when writing 0 bytes to PSI files
commit 6fcca0fa48118e6d63733eb4644c6cd880c15b8f upstream.

Issuing write() with count parameter set to 0 on any file under
/proc/pressure/ will cause an OOB write because of the access to
buf[buf_size-1] when NUL-termination is performed. Fix this by checking
for buf_size to be non-zero.

4e38135180 psi: Fix a division error in psi poll()
[ Upstream commit c3466952ca1514158d7c16c9cfc48c27d5c5dc0f ]

The psi window size is a u64 an can be up to 10 seconds right now,
which exceeds the lower 32 bits of the variable. We currently use
div_u64 for it, which is meant only for 32-bit divisors. The result is
garbage pressure sampling values and even potential div0 crashes.

Use div64_u64.

The crashing instruction is trying to divide the observed stall time
by the sampling period. The period, stored in R8, is not 0, but we are
dividing by the lower 32 bits only, which are all 0 in this instance.

We could switch to a 64-bit division, but the period shouldn't be that
big in the first place. It's the time between the last update and the
next scheduled one, and so should always be around 2s and comfortably
fit into 32 bits.

The bug is in the initialization of new cgroups: we schedule the first
sampling event in a cgroup as an offset of sched_clock(), but fail to
initialize the last_update timestamp, and it defaults to 0. That
results in a bogusly large sampling period the first time we run the
sampling code, and consequently we underreport pressure for the first
2s of a cgroup's life. But worse, if sched_clock() is sufficiently
advanced on the system, and the user gets unlucky, the period's lower
32 bits can all be 0 and the sampling division will crash.

Fix this by initializing the last update timestamp to the creation
time of the cgroup, thus correctly marking the start of the first
pressure sampling period in a new cgroup.

   being offlined.

 - Convert the cpuset_mutex to percpu_rwsem, to allow it to be used from
   setscheduler() system calls without creating global serialization.
   Add new synchronization between cpuset topology-changing events and
   the deadline acceptance tests in setscheduler(), which were broken
   before.

 - Rework the active_mm state machine to be less confusing and more
   optimal.

4adcdcea71 sched/psi: Correct overly pessimistic size calculation
When passing a equal or more then 32 bytes long string to psi_write(),
psi_write() copies 31 bytes to its buf and overwrites buf[30]
with '\0'. Which makes the input string 1 byte shorter than
it should be.

Fix it by copying sizeof(buf) bytes when nbytes >= sizeof(buf).

This does not cause problems in normal use case like:
"some 500000 10000000" or "full 500000 10000000" because they
are less than 32 bytes in length.

	/* assuming nbytes == 35 */
	char buf[32];

	buf_size = min(nbytes, (sizeof(buf) - 1)); /* buf_size = 31 */
	if (copy_from_user(buf, user_buf, buf_size))
		return -EFAULT;

	buf[buf_size - 1] = '\0'; /* buf[30] = '\0' */

Before:

 %cd /proc/pressure/
 %echo "123456789|123456789|123456789|1234" > memory
 [   22.473497] nbytes=35,buf_size=31

7b2b55da1d psi: get poll_work to run when calling poll syscall next time
Only when calling the poll syscall the first time can user receive
POLLPRI correctly.  After that, user always fails to acquire the event
signal.

Reproduce case:
 1. Get the monitor code in Documentation/accounting/psi.txt
 2. Run it, and wait for the event triggered.
 3. Kill and restart the process.

The question is why we can end up with poll_scheduled = 1 but the work
not running (which would reset it to 0).  And the answer is because the
scheduling side sees group->poll_kworker under RCU protection and then
schedules it, but here we cancel the work and destroy the worker.  The
cancel needs to pair with resetting the poll_scheduled flag.

04e048cf09 sched/psi: Do not require setsched permission from the trigger creator
When a process creates a new trigger by writing into /proc/pressure/*
files, permissions to write such a file should be used to determine whether
the process is allowed to do so or not. Current implementation would also
require such a process to have setsched capability. Setting of psi trigger
thread's scheduling policy is an implementation detail and should not be
exposed to the user level. Remove the permission check by using _nocheck
version of the function.

14f5c7b46a sched/psi: Reduce psimon FIFO priority
PSI defaults to a FIFO-99 thread, reduce this to FIFO-1.

FIFO-99 is the very highest priority available to SCHED_FIFO and
it not a suitable default; it would indicate the psi work is the
most important work on the machine.

Since Real-Time tasks will have pre-allocated memory and locked it in
place, Real-Time tasks do not care about PSI. All it needs is to be
above OTHER.

0e94682b73 psi: introduce psi monitor
Psi monitor aims to provide a low-latency short-term pressure detection
mechanism configurable by users.  It allows users to monitor psi metrics
growth and trigger events whenever a metric raises above user-defined
threshold within user-defined time window.

Time window and threshold are both expressed in usecs.  Multiple psi
resources with different thresholds and window sizes can be monitored
concurrently.

Psi monitors activate when system enters stall state for the monitored
psi metric and deactivate upon exit from the stall state.  While system
is in the stall state psi signal growth is monitored at a rate of 10
times per tracking window.  Min window size is 500ms, therefore the min
monitoring interval is 50ms.  Max window size is 10s with monitoring
interval of 1s.

When activated psi monitor stays active for at least the duration of one
tracking window to avoid repeated activations/deactivations when psi
signal is bouncing.

Notifications to the users are rate-limited to one per tracking window.

This is a respin of:
  https://lwn.net/ml/linux-kernel/20190308184311.144521-1-surenb%40google.com/

Android is adopting psi to detect and remedy memory pressure that
results in stuttering and decreased responsiveness on mobile devices.

Psi gives us the stall information, but because we're dealing with
latencies in the millisecond range, periodically reading the pressure
files to detect stalls in a timely fashion is not feasible.  Psi also
doesn't aggregate its averages at a high-enough frequency right now.

This patch series extends the psi interface such that users can
configure sensitive latency thresholds and use poll() and friends to be
notified when these are breached.

As high-frequency aggregation is costly, it implements an aggregation
method that is optimized for fast, short-interval averaging, and makes
the aggregation frequency adaptive, such that high-frequency updates
only happen while monitored stall events are actively occurring.

With these patches applied, Android can monitor for, and ward off,
mounting memory shortages before they cause problems for the user.  For
example, using memory stall monitors in userspace low memory killer
daemon (lmkd) we can detect mounting pressure and kill less important
processes before device becomes visibly sluggish.  In our memory stress
testing psi memory monitors produce roughly 10x less false positives
compared to vmpressure signals.  Having ability to specify multiple
triggers for the same psi metric allows other parts of Android framework
to monitor memory state of the device and act accordingly.

The new interface is straight-forward.  The user opens one of the
pressure files for writing and writes a trigger description into the
file descriptor that defines the stall state - some or full, and the
maximum stall time over a given window of time.  E.g.:

        /* Signal when stall time exceeds 100ms of a 1s window */
        char trigger[] = "full 100000 1000000"
        fd = open("/proc/pressure/memory")
        write(fd, trigger, sizeof(trigger))
        while (poll() >= 0) {
                ...
        };
        close(fd);

When the monitored stall state is entered, psi adapts its aggregation
frequency according to what the configured time window requires in order
to emit event signals in a timely fashion.  Once the stalling subsides,
aggregation reverts back to normal.

The trigger is associated with the open file descriptor.  To stop
monitoring, the user only needs to close the file descriptor and the
trigger is discarded.

Patches 1-6 prepare the psi code for polling support.  Patch 7
implements the adaptive polling logic, the pressure growth detection
optimized for short intervals, and hooks up write() and poll() on the
pressure files.

The patches were developed in collaboration with Johannes Weiner.

This patch (of 7):

The psi monitoring patches will need to determine the same states as
record_times().  To avoid calculating them twice, maintain a state mask
that can be consulted cheaply.  Do this in a separate patch to keep the
churn in the main feature patch at a minimum.

This adds 4-byte state_mask member into psi_group_cpu struct which
results in its first cacheline-aligned part becoming 52 bytes long.  Add
explicit values to enumeration element counters that affect
psi_group_cpu struct size.

The Code-line points to `period` being 0 inside update_stats(), and we
divide by that when calculating that period's pressure percentage.

The elapsed period should never be 0.  The reason this can happen is due
to an off-by-one in the idle time / missing period calculation combined
with a coarse sched_clock() in the virtual machine.

The target time for aggregation is advanced into the future on a fixed
grid to prevent clock drift.  So when an aggregation runs after some idle
period, we can not just set it to "now + psi_period", but have to
calculate the downtime and advance the target time relative to itself.

However, if the aggregator was disabled exactly one psi_period (ns), we
drop one idle period in the calculation due to a > when we should do >=.
In that case, next_update will be advanced from 'now - psi_period' to
'now' when it should be moved to 'now + psi_period'.  The run finishes
with last_update == next_update == sched_clock().

With hardware clocks, this exact nanosecond match isn't likely in the
first place; but if it does happen, the clock will still have moved on and
the period non-zero by the time the worker runs.  A pointlessly short
period, but besides the extra work, no harm no foul.  However, a slow
sched_clock() like we have on VMs might not have advanced either by the
time the worker runs again.  And when we calculate the elapsed period, the
result, our pressure divisor, will be 0.  Ouch.

Fix this by correctly handling the situation when the elapsed time between
aggregation runs is precisely two periods, and advance the expiration
timestamp correctly to period into the future.

1b69ac6b40 psi: fix aggregation idle shut-off
psi has provisions to shut off the periodic aggregation worker when
there is a period of no task activity - and thus no data that needs
aggregating.  However, while developing psi monitoring, Suren noticed
that the aggregation clock currently won't stay shut off for good.

Debugging this revealed a flaw in the idle design: an aggregation run
will see no task activity and decide to go to sleep; shortly thereafter,
the kworker thread that executed the aggregation will go idle and cause
a scheduling change, during which the psi callback will kick the
!pending worker again.  This will ping-pong forever, and is equivalent
to having no shut-off logic at all (but with more code!)

Fix this by exempting aggregation workers from psi's clock waking logic
when the state change is them going to sleep.  To do this, tag workers
with the last work function they executed, and if in psi we see a worker
going to sleep after aggregating psi data, we will not reschedule the
aggregation work item.

What if the worker is also executing other items before or after?

Any psi state times that were incurred by work items preceding the
aggregation work will have been collected from the per-cpu buckets
during the aggregation itself.  If there are work items following the
aggregation work, the worker's last_func tag will be overwritten and the
aggregator will be kept alive to process this genuine new activity.

If the aggregation work is the last thing the worker does, and we decide
to go idle, the brief period of non-idle time incurred between the
aggregation run and the kworker's dequeue will be stranded in the
per-cpu buckets until the clock is woken by later activity.  But that
should not be a problem.  The buckets can hold 4s worth of time, and
future activity will wake the clock with a 2s delay, giving us 2s worth
of data we can leave behind when disabling aggregation.  If it takes a
worker more than two seconds to go idle after it finishes its last work
item, we likely have bigger problems in the system, and won't notice one
sample that was averaged with a bogus per-CPU weight.

e0c274472d psi: make disabling/enabling easier for vendor kernels
Mel Gorman reports a hackbench regression with psi that would prohibit
shipping the suse kernel with it default-enabled, but he'd still like
users to be able to opt in at little to no cost to others.

With the current combination of CONFIG_PSI and the psi_disabled bool set
from the commandline, this is a challenge.  Do the following things to
make it easier:

1. Add a config option CONFIG_PSI_DEFAULT_DISABLED that allows distros
   to enable CONFIG_PSI in their kernel but leave the feature disabled
   unless a user requests it at boot-time.

   To avoid double negatives, rename psi_disabled= to psi=.

2. Make psi_disabled a static branch to eliminate any branch costs
   when the feature is disabled.

In terms of numbers before and after this patch, Mel says:

2ce7135adc psi: cgroup support
On a system that executes multiple cgrouped jobs and independent
workloads, we don't just care about the health of the overall system, but
also that of individual jobs, so that we can ensure individual job health,
fairness between jobs, or prioritize some jobs over others.

This patch implements pressure stall tracking for cgroups.  In kernels
with CONFIG_PSI=y, cgroup2 groups will have cpu.pressure, memory.pressure,
and io.pressure files that track aggregate pressure stall times for only
the tasks inside the cgroup.

eb414681d5 psi: pressure stall information for CPU, memory, and IO
When systems are overcommitted and resources become contended, it's hard
to tell exactly the impact this has on workload productivity, or how close
the system is to lockups and OOM kills.  In particular, when machines work
multiple jobs concurrently, the impact of overcommit in terms of latency
and throughput on the individual job can be enormous.

In order to maximize hardware utilization without sacrificing individual
job health or risk complete machine lockups, this patch implements a way
to quantify resource pressure in the system.

A kernel built with CONFIG_PSI=y creates files in /proc/pressure/ that
expose the percentage of time the system is stalled on CPU, memory, or IO,
respectively.  Stall states are aggregate versions of the per-task delay
accounting delays:

       cpu: some tasks are runnable but not executing on a CPU
       memory: tasks are reclaiming, or waiting for swapin or thrashing cache
       io: tasks are waiting for io completions

These percentages of walltime can be thought of as pressure percentages,
and they give a general sense of system health and productivity loss
incurred by resource overcommit.  They can also indicate when the system
is approaching lockup scenarios and OOMs.

To do this, psi keeps track of the task states associated with each CPU
and samples the time they spend in stall states.  Every 2 seconds, the
samples are averaged across CPUs - weighted by the CPUs' non-idle time to
eliminate artifacts from unused CPUs - and translated into percentages of
walltime.  A running average of those percentages is maintained over 10s,
1m, and 5m periods (similar to the loadaverage).
