Use "proc_dointvec_minmax" instead of "proc_dointvec" to check the input
value from user-space.
If not, we can set a big value and some vars will overflow like
"sysctl_perf_event_sample_rate" which will cause a lot of unexpected
problems.

This patch fixes an issue which was introduced by commit:
91a612eea9a3 ("perf/core: Fix dynamic interrupt throttle")
... which commit unconditionally sets the perf_sample_allowed_ns value
to !0. But that could trigger a bug in the following corner case:
The user can disable the dynamic interrupt throttle mechanism by setting
perf_cpu_time_max_percent to 0. Then they change perf_event_max_sample_rate.
For this case, the mechanism will be enabled implicitly, because
perf_sample_allowed_ns becomes !0 - which is not what we want.
This patch only updates perf_sample_allowed_ns when the dynamic
interrupt throttle mechanism is enabled.

There were two problems with the dynamic interrupt throttle mechanism,
both triggered by the same action.
When you (or perf_fuzzer) write a huge value into
/proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate the computed
perf_sample_allowed_ns becomes 0. This effectively disables the whole
dynamic throttle.
This is fixed by ensuring update_perf_cpu_limits() never sets the
value to 0. However, we allow disabling of the dynamic throttle by
writing 100 to /proc/sys/kernel/perf_cpu_time_max_percent. This will
generate a warning in dmesg.
The second problem is that by setting the max_sample_rate to a huge
number, the adaptive process can take a few tries, since it halfs the
limit each time. Change that to directly compute a new value based on
the observed duration.

[ Upstream commit 25f71d1c3e98ef0e52371746220d66458eac75bc ]
The UEVENT user mode helper is enabled before the initcalls are executed
and is available when the root filesystem has been mounted.
The user mode helper is triggered by device init calls and the executable
might use the futex syscall.
futex_init() is marked __initcall which maps to device_initcall, but there
is no guarantee that futex_init() is invoked _before_ the first device init
call which triggers the UEVENT user mode helper.
If the user mode helper uses the futex syscall before futex_init() then the
syscall crashes with a NULL pointer dereference because the futex subsystem
has not been initialized yet.
Move futex_init() to core_initcall so futexes are initialized before the
root filesystem is mounted and the usermode helper becomes available.

[ Upstream commit 64b875f7ac8a5d60a4e191479299e931ee949b67 ]
When the flag PT_PTRACE_CAP was added the PTRACE_TRACEME path was
overlooked. This can result in incorrect behavior when an application
like strace traces an exec of a setuid executable.
Further PT_PTRACE_CAP does not have enough information for making good
security decisions as it does not report which user namespace the
capability is in. This has already allowed one mistake through
insufficient granulariy.
I found this issue when I was testing another corner case of exec and
discovered that I could not get strace to set PT_PTRACE_CAP even when
running strace as root with a full set of caps.
This change fixes the above issue with strace allowing stracing as
root a setuid executable without disabling setuid. More fundamentaly
this change allows what is allowable at all times, by using the correct
information in it's decision.

[ Upstream commit 2d13bb6494c807bcf3f78af0e96c0b8615a94385 ]
We've got a delay loop waiting for secondary CPUs. That loop uses
loops_per_jiffy. However, loops_per_jiffy doesn't actually mean how
many tight loops make up a jiffy on all architectures. It is quite
common to see things like this in the boot log:
Calibrating delay loop (skipped), value calculated using timer
frequency.. 48.00 BogoMIPS (lpj=24000)
In my case I was seeing lots of cases where other CPUs timed out
entering the debugger only to print their stack crawls shortly after the
kdb> prompt was written.
Elsewhere in kgdb we already use udelay(), so that should be safe enough
to use to implement our timeout. We'll delay 1 ms for 1000 times, which
should give us a full second of delay (just like the old code wanted)
but allow us to notice that we're done every 1 ms.

[ Upstream commit 794de08a16cf1fc1bf785dc48f66d36218cf6d88 ]
Both the wakeup and irqsoff tracers can use the function graph tracer when
the display-graph option is set. The problem is that they ignore the notrace
file, and record the entry of functions that would be ignored by the
function_graph tracer. This causes the trace->depth to be recorded into the
ring buffer. The set_graph_notrace uses a trick by adding a large negative
number to the trace->depth when a graph function is to be ignored.
On trace output, the graph function uses the depth to record a stack of
functions. But since the depth is negative, it accesses the array with a
negative number and causes an out of bounds access that can cause a kernel
oops or corrupt data.
Have the print functions handle cases where a tracer still records functions
even when they are in set_graph_notrace.
Also add warnings if the depth is below zero before accessing the array.
Note, the function graph logic will still prevent the return of these
functions from being recorded, which means that they will be left hanging
without a return. For example:
# echo '*spin*' > set_graph_notrace
# echo 1 > options/display-graph
# echo wakeup > current_tracer
# cat trace
[...]
_raw_spin_lock() {
preempt_count_add() {
do_raw_spin_lock() {
update_rq_clock();
Where it should look like:
_raw_spin_lock() {
preempt_count_add();
do_raw_spin_lock();
}
update_rq_clock();

[ Upstream commit 9c1645727b8fa90d07256fdfcc45bf831242a3ab ]
The clocksource delta to nanoseconds conversion is using signed math, but
the delta is unsigned. This makes the conversion space smaller than
necessary and in case of a multiplication overflow the conversion can
become negative. The conversion is done with scaled math:
s64 nsec_delta = ((s64)clkdelta * clk->mult) >> clk->shift;
Shifting a signed integer right obvioulsy preserves the sign, which has
interesting consequences:
- Time jumps backwards
- __iter_div_u64_rem() which is used in one of the calling code pathes
will take forever to piecewise calculate the seconds/nanoseconds part.
This has been reported by several people with different scenarios:
David observed that when stopping a VM with a debugger:
"It was essentially the stopped by debugger case. I forget exactly why,
but the guest was being explicitly stopped from outside, it wasn't just
scheduling lag. I think it was something in the vicinity of 10 minutes
stopped."
When lifting the stop the machine went dead.
The stopped by debugger case is not really interesting, but nevertheless it
would be a good thing not to die completely.
But this was also observed on a live system by Liav:
"When the OS is too overloaded, delta will get a high enough value for the
msb of the sum delta * tkr->mult + tkr->xtime_nsec to be set, and so
after the shift the nsec variable will gain a value similar to
0xffffffffff000000."
Unfortunately this has been reintroduced recently with commit 6bd58f09e1d8
("time: Add cycles to nanoseconds translation"). It had been fixed a year
ago already in commit 35a4933a8959 ("time: Avoid signed overflow in
timekeeping_get_ns()").
Though it's not surprising that the issue has been reintroduced because the
function itself and the whole call chain uses s64 for the result and the
propagation of it. The change in this recent commit is subtle:
s64 nsec;
- nsec = (d * m + n) >> s:
+ nsec = d * m + n;
+ nsec >>= s;
d being type of cycle_t adds another level of obfuscation.
This wouldn't have happened if the previous change to unsigned computation
would have made the 'nsec' variable u64 right away and a follow up patch
had cleaned up the whole call chain.
There have been patches submitted which basically did a revert of the above
patch leaving everything else unchanged as signed. Back to square one. This
spawned a admittedly pointless discussion about potential users which rely
on the unsigned behaviour until someone pointed out that it had been fixed
before. The changelogs of said patches added further confusion as they made
finally false claims about the consequences for eventual users which expect
signed results.
Despite delta being cycle_t, aka. u64, it's very well possible to hand in
a signed negative value and the signed computation will happily return the
correct result. But nobody actually sat down and analyzed the code which
was added as user after the propably unintended signed conversion.
Though in sensitive code like this it's better to analyze it proper and
make sure that nothing relies on this than hunting the subtle wreckage half
a year later. After analyzing all call chains it stands that no caller can
hand in a negative value (which actually would work due to the s64 cast)
and rely on the signed math to do the right thing.
Change the conversion function to unsigned math. The conversion of all call
chains is done in a follow up patch.
This solves the starvation issue, which was caused by the negative result,
but it does not solve the underlying problem. It merily procrastinates
it. When the timekeeper update is deferred long enough that the unsigned
multiplication overflows, then time going backwards is observable again.
It does neither solve the issue of clocksources with a small counter width
which will wrap around possibly several times and cause random time stamps
to be generated. But those are usually not found on systems used for
virtualization, so this is likely a non issue.
I took the liberty to claim authorship for this simply because
analyzing all callsites and writing the changelog took substantially
more time than just making the simple s/s64/u64/ change and ignore the
rest.

[ bugfix/all/ptrace-being-capable-wrt-a-process-requires-mapped-uids-gids.patch ]
ptrace_has_cap() checks whether the current process should be
treated as having a certain capability for ptrace checks
against another process. Until now, this was equivalent to
has_ns_capability(current, target_ns, CAP_SYS_PTRACE).
However, if a root-owned process wants to enter a user
namespace for some reason without knowing who owns it and
therefore can't change to the namespace owner's uid and gid
before entering, as soon as it has entered the namespace,
the namespace owner can attach to it via ptrace and thereby
gain access to its uid and gid.
While it is possible for the entering process to switch to
the uid of a claimed namespace owner before entering,
causing the attempt to enter to fail if the claimed uid is
wrong, this doesn't solve the problem of determining an
appropriate gid.
With this change, the entering process can first enter the
namespace and then safely inspect the namespace's
properties, e.g. through /proc/self/{uid_map,gid_map},
assuming that the namespace owner doesn't have access to
uid 0.
Changed in v2: The caller needs to be capable in the
namespace into which tcred's uids/gids can be mapped.

So I am setting the default number of mounts allowed per mount
namespace at 100,000. This is more than enough for any use case I
know of, but small enough to quickly stop an exponential increase
in mounts. Which should be perfect to catch misconfigurations and
malfunctioning programs.
For anyone who needs a higher limit this can be changed by writing
to the new /proc/sys/fs/mount-max sysctl.

[ Upstream commit 28b89b9e6f7b6c8fef7b3af39828722bca20cfee ]
A discrepancy between cpu_online_mask and cpuset's effective_cpus
mask is inevitable during hotplug since cpuset defers updating of
effective_cpus mask using a workqueue, during which time nothing
prevents the system from more hotplug operations. For that reason
guarantee_online_cpus() walks up the cpuset hierarchy until it finds
an intersection under the assumption that top cpuset's effective_cpus
mask intersects with cpu_online_mask even with such a race occurring.
However a sequence of CPU hotplugs can open a time window, during which
none of the effective CPUs in the top cpuset intersect with
cpu_online_mask.
For example when there are 4 possible CPUs 0-3 and only CPU0 is online:
======================== ===========================
cpu_online_mask top_cpuset.effective_cpus
======================== ===========================
echo 1 > cpu2/online.
CPU hotplug notifier woke up hotplug work but not yet scheduled.
[0,2] [0]
echo 0 > cpu0/online.
The workqueue is still runnable.
[2] [0]
======================== ===========================
Now there is no intersection between cpu_online_mask and
top_cpuset.effective_cpus. Thus invoking sys_sched_setaffinity() at
this moment can cause following:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 000000d0

[ Upstream commit 58bfea9532552d422bde7afa207e1a0f08dffa7d ]
In commit 27727df240c7 ("Avoid taking lock in NMI path with
CONFIG_DEBUG_TIMEKEEPING"), I changed the logic to open-code
the timekeeping_get_ns() function, but I forgot to include
the unit conversion from cycles to nanoseconds, breaking the
function's output, which impacts users like perf.
This results in bogus perf timestamps like:

well.

[ Upstream commit 6bd58f09e1d8cc6c50a824c00bf0d617919986a1 ]
The timekeeping code does not currently provide a way to translate
externally provided clocksource cycles to system time. The cycle count
is always provided by the result clocksource read() method internal to
the timekeeping code. The added function timekeeping_cycles_to_ns()
calculated a nanosecond value from a cycle count that can be added to
tk_read_base.base value yielding the current system time. This allows
clocksource cycle values external to the timekeeping code to provide a
cycle count that can be transformed to system time.

[ Upstream commit 135e8c9250dd5c8c9aae5984fde6f230d0cbfeaf ]
The origin of the issue I've seen is related to
a missing memory barrier between check for task->state and
the check for task->on_rq.
The task being woken up is already awake from a schedule()
and is doing the following:
do {
schedule()
set_current_state(TASK_(UN)INTERRUPTIBLE);
} while (!cond);
The waker, actually gets stuck doing the following in
try_to_wake_up():
while (p->on_cpu)
cpu_relax();
Analysis:
The instance I've seen involves the following race:
CPU1 CPU2
while () {
if (cond)
break;
do {
schedule();
set_current_state(TASK_UN..)
} while (!cond);
wakeup_routine()
spin_lock_irqsave(wait_lock)
raw_spin_lock_irqsave(wait_lock) wake_up_process()
} try_to_wake_up()
set_current_state(TASK_RUNNING); ..
list_del(&waiter.list);
CPU2 wakes up CPU1, but before it can get the wait_lock and set
current state to TASK_RUNNING the following occurs:
CPU3
wakeup_routine()
raw_spin_lock_irqsave(wait_lock)
if (!list_empty)
wake_up_process()
try_to_wake_up()
raw_spin_lock_irqsave(p->pi_lock)
..
if (p->on_rq && ttwu_wakeup())
..
while (p->on_cpu)
cpu_relax()
..
CPU3 tries to wake up the task on CPU1 again since it finds
it on the wait_queue, CPU1 is spinning on wait_lock, but immediately
after CPU2, CPU3 got it.
CPU3 checks the state of p on CPU1, it is TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE and
the task is spinning on the wait_lock. Interestingly since p->on_rq
is checked under pi_lock, I've noticed that try_to_wake_up() finds
p->on_rq to be 0. This was the most confusing bit of the analysis,
but p->on_rq is changed under runqueue lock, rq_lock, the p->on_rq
check is not reliable without this fix IMHO. The race is visible
(based on the analysis) only when ttwu_queue() does a remote wakeup
via ttwu_queue_remote. In which case the p->on_rq change is not
done uder the pi_lock.
The result is that after a while the entire system locks up on
the raw_spin_irqlock_save(wait_lock) and the holder spins infintely
Reproduction of the issue:
The issue can be reproduced after a long run on my system with 80
threads and having to tweak available memory to very low and running
memory stress-ng mmapfork test. It usually takes a long time to
reproduce. I am trying to work on a test case that can reproduce
the issue faster, but thats work in progress. I am still testing the
changes on my still in a loop and the tests seem OK thus far.
Big thanks to Benjamin and Nick for helping debug this as well.
Ben helped catch the missing barrier, Nick caught every missing
bit in my theory.

[ Upstream commit a4f8f6667f099036c88f231dcad4cf233652c824 ]
It was reported that hibernation could fail on the 2nd attempt, where the
system hangs at hibernate() -> syscore_resume() -> i8237A_resume() ->
claim_dma_lock(), because the lock has already been taken.
However there is actually no other process would like to grab this lock on
that problematic platform.
Further investigation showed that the problem is triggered by setting
/sys/power/pm_trace to 1 before the 1st hibernation.
Since once pm_trace is enabled, the rtc becomes unmeaningful after suspend,
and meanwhile some BIOSes would like to adjust the 'invalid' RTC (e.g, smaller
than 1970) to the release date of that motherboard during POST stage, thus
after resumed, it may seem that the system had a significant long sleep time
which is a completely meaningless value.
Then in timekeeping_resume -> tk_debug_account_sleep_time, if the bit31 of the
sleep time happened to be set to 1, fls() returns 32 and we add 1 to
sleep_time_bin[32], which causes an out of bounds array access and therefor
memory being overwritten.
As depicted by System.map:
0xffffffff81c9d080 b sleep_time_bin
0xffffffff81c9d100 B dma_spin_lock
the dma_spin_lock.val is set to 1, which caused this problem.
This patch adds a sanity check in tk_debug_account_sleep_time()
to ensure we don't index past the sleep_time_bin array.
[jstultz: Problem diagnosed and original patch by Chen Yu, I've solved the
issue slightly differently, but borrowed his excelent explanation of the
issue here.]

When I added some extra sanity checking in timekeeping_get_ns() under

Thus the locking added to the debug checks broke the NMI-safety of
__ktime_get_fast_ns().
This patch open-codes the timekeeping_get_ns() logic for
__ktime_get_fast_ns(), so can avoid any deadlocks in NMI.

[ Upstream commit 43761473c254b45883a64441dd0bc85a42f3645c ]
There is a double fetch problem in audit_log_single_execve_arg()
where we first check the execve(2) argumnets for any "bad" characters
which would require hex encoding and then re-fetch the arguments for
logging in the audit record[1]. Of course this leaves a window of
opportunity for an unsavory application to munge with the data.
This patch reworks things by only fetching the argument data once[2]
into a buffer where it is scanned and logged into the audit
records(s). In addition to fixing the double fetch, this patch
improves on the original code in a few other ways: better handling
of large arguments which require encoding, stricter record length
checking, and some performance improvements (completely unverified,
but we got rid of some strlen() calls, that's got to be a good
thing).
As part of the development of this patch, I've also created a basic
regression test for the audit-testsuite, the test can be tracked on
GitHub at the following link:
* https://github.com/linux-audit/audit-testsuite/issues/25
[1] If you pay careful attention, there is actually a triple fetch
problem due to a strnlen_user() call at the top of the function.
[2] This is a tiny white lie, we do make a call to strnlen_user()
prior to fetching the argument data. I don't like it, but due to the
way the audit record is structured we really have no choice unless we
copy the entire argument at once (which would require a rather
wasteful allocation). The good news is that with this patch the
kernel no longer relies on this strnlen_user() value for anything
beyond recording it in the log, we also update it with a trustworthy
value whenever possible.

[ Upstream commit 45820c294fe1b1a9df495d57f40585ef2d069a39 ]
The "fix" in commit 0b08c5e5944 ("audit: Fix check of return value of
strnlen_user()") didn't fix anything, it broke things. As reported by
Steven Rostedt:
"Yes, strnlen_user() returns 0 on fault, but if you look at what len is
set to, than you would notice that on fault len would be -1"
because we just subtracted one from the return value. So testing
against 0 doesn't test for a fault condition, it tests against a
perfectly valid empty string.
Also fix up the usual braindamage wrt using WARN_ON() inside a
conditional - make it part of the conditional and remove the explicit
unlikely() (which is already part of the WARN_ON*() logic, exactly so
that you don't have to write unreadable code.

[ Upstream commit 759c01142a5d0f364a462346168a56de28a80f52 ]
On no-so-small systems, it is possible for a single process to cause an
OOM condition by filling large pipes with data that are never read. A
typical process filling 4000 pipes with 1 MB of data will use 4 GB of
memory. On small systems it may be tricky to set the pipe max size to
prevent this from happening.
This patch makes it possible to enforce a per-user soft limit above
which new pipes will be limited to a single page, effectively limiting
them to 4 kB each, as well as a hard limit above which no new pipes may
be created for this user. This has the effect of protecting the system
against memory abuse without hurting other users, and still allowing
pipes to work correctly though with less data at once.
The limit are controlled by two new sysctls : pipe-user-pages-soft, and
pipe-user-pages-hard. Both may be disabled by setting them to zero. The
default soft limit allows the default number of FDs per process (1024)
to create pipes of the default size (64kB), thus reaching a limit of 64MB
before starting to create only smaller pipes. With 256 processes limited
to 1024 FDs each, this results in 1024*64kB + (256*1024 - 1024) * 4kB =
1084 MB of memory allocated for a user. The hard limit is disabled by
default to avoid breaking existing applications that make intensive use
of pipes (eg: for splicing).

When bpf(BPF_PROG_LOAD, ...) was invoked with a BPF program whose bytecode
references a non-map file descriptor as a map file descriptor, the error
handling code called fdput() twice instead of once (in __bpf_map_get() and
in replace_map_fd_with_map_ptr()). If the file descriptor table of the
current task is shared, this causes f_count to be decremented too much,
allowing the struct file to be freed while it is still in use
(use-after-free). This can be exploited to gain root privileges by an
unprivileged user.
This bug was introduced in
commit 0246e64d9a5f ("bpf: handle pseudo BPF_LD_IMM64 insn"), but is only
exploitable since
commit 1be7f75d1668 ("bpf: enable non-root eBPF programs") because
previously, CAP_SYS_ADMIN was required to reach the vulnerable code.

[ Upstream commit 8bb5ef79bc0f4016ecf79e8dce6096a3c63603e4 ]
There are three subsystem callbacks in css shutdown path -
css_offline(), css_released() and css_free(). Except for
css_released(), cgroup core didn't guarantee the order of invocation.
css_offline() or css_free() could be called on a parent css before its
children. This behavior is unexpected and led to bugs in cpu and
memory controller.
The previous patch updated ordering for css_offline() which fixes the
cpu controller issue. While there currently isn't a known bug caused
by misordering of css_free() invocations, let's fix it too for
consistency.
css_free() ordering can be trivially fixed by moving putting of the
parent css below css_free() invocation.

[ Upstream commit 70c8217acd4383e069fe1898bbad36ea4fcdbdcc ]
If a task uses a non constant string for the format parameter in
trace_printk(), then the trace_printk_fmt variable is set to NULL. This
variable is then saved in the __trace_printk_fmt section.
The function hold_module_trace_bprintk_format() checks to see if duplicate
formats are used by modules, and reuses them if so (saves them to the list
if it is new). But this function calls lookup_format() that does a strcmp()
to the value (which is now NULL) and can cause a kernel oops.
This wasn't an issue till 3debb0a9ddb ("tracing: Fix trace_printk() to print
when not using bprintk()") which added "__used" to the trace_printk_fmt
variable, and before that, the kernel simply optimized it out (no NULL value
was saved).
The fix is simply to handle the NULL pointer in lookup_format() and have the
caller ignore the value if it was NULL.

Lengthy output of sysrq-w may take a lot of time on slow serial console.
Currently we reset NMI-watchdog on the current CPU to avoid spurious
lockup messages. Sometimes this doesn't work since softlockup watchdog
might trigger on another CPU which is waiting for an IPI to proceed.
We reset softlockup watchdogs on all CPUs, but we do this only after
listing all tasks, and this may be too late on a busy system.
So, reset watchdogs CPUs earlier, in for_each_process_thread() loop.

Recursive locking for ww_mutexes was originally conceived as an
exception. However, it is heavily used by the DRM atomic modesetting
code. Currently, the recursive deadlock is checked after we have queued
up for a busy-spin and as we never release the lock, we spin until
kicked, whereupon the deadlock is discovered and reported.
A simple solution for the now common problem is to move the recursive
deadlock discovery to the first action when taking the ww_mutex.

}
creates an unreapable zombie if /sbin/init doesn't use __WALL.
This is not a kernel bug, at least in a sense that everything works as
expected: debugger should reap a traced sub-thread before it can reap the
leader, but without __WALL/__WCLONE do_wait() ignores sub-threads.
Unfortunately, it seems that /sbin/init in most (all?) distributions
doesn't use it and we have to change the kernel to avoid the problem.
Note also that most init's use sys_waitid() which doesn't allow __WALL, so
the necessary user-space fix is not that trivial.
This patch just adds the "ptrace" check into eligible_child(). To some
degree this matches the "tsk->ptrace" in exit_notify(), ->exit_signal is
mostly ignored when the tracee reports to debugger. Or WSTOPPED, the
tracer doesn't need to set this flag to wait for the stopped tracee.
This obviously means the user-visible change: __WCLONE and __WALL no
longer have any meaning for debugger. And I can only hope that this won't
break something, but at least strace/gdb won't suffer.
We could make a more conservative change. Say, we can take __WCLONE into
account, or !thread_group_leader(). But it would be nice to not
complicate these historical/confusing checks.

[ Upstream commit 59643d1535eb220668692a5359de22545af579f6 ]
If the size passed to ring_buffer_resize() is greater than MAX_LONG - BUF_PAGE_SIZE
then the DIV_ROUND_UP() will return zero.
Here's the details:
# echo 18014398509481980 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/buffer_size_kb
tracing_entries_write() processes this and converts kb to bytes.
18014398509481980 << 10 = 18446744073709547520
and this is passed to ring_buffer_resize() as unsigned long size.
size = DIV_ROUND_UP(size, BUF_PAGE_SIZE);
Where DIV_ROUND_UP(a, b) is (a + b - 1)/b
BUF_PAGE_SIZE is 4080 and here
18446744073709547520 + 4080 - 1 = 18446744073709551599
where 18446744073709551599 is still smaller than 2^64
2^64 - 18446744073709551599 = 17
But now 18446744073709551599 / 4080 = 4521260802379792
and size = size * 4080 = 18446744073709551360
This is checked to make sure its still greater than 2 * 4080,
which it is.
Then we convert to the number of buffer pages needed.
nr_page = DIV_ROUND_UP(size, BUF_PAGE_SIZE)
but this time size is 18446744073709551360 and
2^64 - (18446744073709551360 + 4080 - 1) = -3823
Thus it overflows and the resulting number is less than 4080, which makes
3823 / 4080 = 0
an nr_pages is set to this. As we already checked against the minimum that
nr_pages may be, this causes the logic to fail as well, and we crash the
kernel.
There's no reason to have the two DIV_ROUND_UP() (that's just result of
historical code changes), clean up the code and fix this bug.

[ Upstream commit 9b94a8fba501f38368aef6ac1b30e7335252a220 ]
The size variable to change the ring buffer in ftrace is a long. The
nr_pages used to update the ring buffer based on the size is int. On 64 bit
machines this can cause an overflow problem.
For example, the following will cause the ring buffer to crash:
# cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
# echo 10 > buffer_size_kb
# echo 8556384240 > buffer_size_kb
Then you get the warning of:
WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 318 at kernel/trace/ring_buffer.c:1527 rb_update_pages+0x22f/0x260
Which is:
RB_WARN_ON(cpu_buffer, nr_removed);
Note each ring buffer page holds 4080 bytes.
This is because:
1) 10 causes the ring buffer to have 3 pages.
(10kb requires 3 * 4080 pages to hold)
2) (2^31 / 2^10 + 1) * 4080 = 8556384240
The value written into buffer_size_kb is shifted by 10 and then passed
to ring_buffer_resize(). 8556384240 * 2^10 = 8761737461760
3) The size passed to ring_buffer_resize() is then divided by BUF_PAGE_SIZE
which is 4080. 8761737461760 / 4080 = 2147484672
4) nr_pages is subtracted from the current nr_pages (3) and we get:
2147484669. This value is saved in a signed integer nr_pages_to_update
5) 2147484669 is greater than 2^31 but smaller than 2^32, a signed int
turns into the value of -2147482627
6) As the value is a negative number, in update_pages_handler() it is
negated and passed to rb_remove_pages() and 2147482627 pages will
be removed, which is much larger than 3 and it causes the warning
because not all the pages asked to be removed were removed.

[ Upstream commit 58a09ec6e3ec88c9c7e061479f1ef7fe93324a87 ]
Instead of using a global per_cpu variable to perform the recursive
checks into the ring buffer, use the already existing per_cpu descriptor
that is part of the ring buffer itself.
Not only does this simplify the code, it also allows for one ring buffer
to be used within the guts of the use of another ring buffer. For example
trace_printk() can now be used within the ring buffer to record changes
done by an instance into the main ring buffer. The recursion checks
will prevent the trace_printk() itself from causing recursive issues
with the main ring buffer (it is just ignored), but the recursive
checks wont prevent the trace_printk() from recording other ring buffers.

[ Upstream commit 20878232c52329f92423d27a60e48b6a6389e0dd ]
Systems show a minimal load average of 0.00, 0.01, 0.05 even when they
have no load at all.
Uptime and /proc/loadavg on all systems with kernels released during the
last five years up until kernel version 4.6-rc5, show a 5- and 15-minute
minimum loadavg of 0.01 and 0.05 respectively. This should be 0.00 on
idle systems, but the way the kernel calculates this value prevents it
from getting lower than the mentioned values.
Likewise but not as obviously noticeable, a fully loaded system with no
processes waiting, shows a maximum 1/5/15 loadavg of 1.00, 0.99, 0.95
(multiplied by number of cores).
Once the (old) load becomes 93 or higher, it mathematically can never
get lower than 93, even when the active (load) remains 0 forever.
This results in the strange 0.00, 0.01, 0.05 uptime values on idle
systems. Note: 93/2048 = 0.0454..., which rounds up to 0.05.
It is not correct to add a 0.5 rounding (=1024/2048) here, since the
result from this function is fed back into the next iteration again,
so the result of that +0.5 rounding value then gets multiplied by
(2048-2037), and then rounded again, so there is a virtual "ghost"
load created, next to the old and active load terms.
By changing the way the internally kept value is rounded, that internal
value equivalent now can reach 0.00 on idle, and 1.00 on full load. Upon
increasing load, the internally kept load value is rounded up, when the
load is decreasing, the load value is rounded down.
The modified code was tested on nohz=off and nohz kernels. It was tested
on vanilla kernel 4.6-rc5 and on centos 7.1 kernel 3.10.0-327. It was
tested on single, dual, and octal cores system. It was tested on virtual
hosts and bare hardware. No unwanted effects have been observed, and the
problems that the patch intended to fix were indeed gone.
