Extend the LINUX_VERSION_CODE check to v5.6 to fix the following warnings:
...
[ 483.242037] LTTng: vmalloc_sync_all symbol lookup failed.
[ 483.257056] Page fault handler and NMI tracing might trigger faults.
...
Linux commit 0bd476e6c67190b5eb7b6e105c8db8ff61103281 ("kallsyms:
unexport kallsyms_lookup_name() and kallsyms_on_each_symbol()") breaks
LTTng-modules by removing symbols used by the LTTng-modules out-of-tree
tracer.
I pointed this out when the change was originally considered before the
5.7 merge window. This generated some discussion but it did not lead to
any concrete proposal to fix the issue. [1]
The commit has been merged in the 5.7 merge window. At that point, as
maintainer of LTTng, I immediately raised a flag about this issue,
proposing an alternative approach to solve this: expose the few symbols
needed by LTTng to GPL modules. This was NACKed on the ground that the
Linux kernel cannot export GPL symbols when there are no in-tree
users. [2]
Steven Rostedt has shown interest in merging LTTng-modules upstream.
LTTng-modules being LGPL, this is very much doable. I have prepared a
tree of LTTng-modules "for upstreaming" and sent it to him privately so
he can review it. Even if in an ideal scenario LTTng-modules is merged
for the following merge window, it leaves LTTng-modules broken on the
5.7 kernel.
In order to ensure that the LTTng-modules kernel tracer continues working
for my end users on kernels 5.7 onwards, as a very last resort, this is
with great reluctance that I created this fix for LTTng modules. It
basically uses kprobes to lookup the kallsyms_lookup_name symbol, and
continues using kallsyms_lookup_name as before.
Because lttng-tracer depends on lttng-statedump, we cannot just put all
wrappers into lttng-tracer.o, because it would create a circular
dependency. This will be an issue if we introduce common wrappers which
are used in both lttng-tracer.o and in lttng-statedump.o.
Introduce a new lttng-wrapper.o to contain all wrapper symbols for all
lttng modules.
Currently the LTTng-modules statedump simply iterates over all processes
in the system and assumes all threads share the same file descriptor
table, which is only true if threads were created with clone
CLONE_FILES.
Directly invoking clone without the CLONE_FILES creates threads which
belong to the same process, but have their own file descriptor table.
Therefore, model-wise, we cannot assume that all threads in a process
have the same fd table content.
Add a new "file_table_address" field to the lttng_statedump_process_state
event, which dumps the address of the thread's struct files_struct
pointer. This pointer is guaranteed to never be re-used while we hold
the RCU read-side lock (so for the entire iteration over
processes/threads).
For the lttng_statedump_file_descriptor event, remove the "pid" field
(which is semantically inaccurate) and add a "file_table_address" field,
which contains the struct files_struct address of the file table
containing the file descriptor.
An optimization is performed to eliminate most duplcated file table
content by skipping file table dump if the same file table address is
encountered consecutively while iterating over a process' threads.
This introduces a semantic change to the statedump fields, and will
therefore be introduced in lttng-modules 2.12 onwards, not backported as
a fix.
The lttng-ftrace integration (LTTNG_KERNEL_FUNCTION instrumentation
type) was unused for a while now. The "function" probing is actually
done with kprobes and kretprobes (LTTNG_KERNEL_KPROBE and
LTTNG_KERNEL_KRETPROBE).
Remove it so a use of kallsyms_lookup_name() can be removed as well.
Note that in the future we could add back this support by using
register_ftrace_function() which is exported to kernel modules, but
considering that we have not been using this code for a while,
just remove the implementation for now.
Remove dependency on kallsyms for splice_to_pipe (kernel 4.2+)
Upstream commit 2b514574f7e88 "net: af_unix: implement splice for stream
af_unix sockets" exported the "splice_to_pipe" symbol, so use it to
remove a dependency on kallsyms_lookup_name().
Remove dependency on kallsyms for irq_to_desc (kernel 3.4+)
Upstream commit 3911ff30f5d "genirq: export handle_edge_irq() and
irq_to_desc()" exported the irq_to_desc symbol, so use it to remove a
dependency on kallsyms_lookup_name().
Remove work-around for signed tracepoint module tainting (kernel 3.15+)
Upstream commit 66cc69e34e86a "Fix: module signature vs tracepoints: add
new TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE" fixed an issue where the kernel was
considering unsigned modules as tainting the kernel in the same way as a
force-loaded modules, which was causing the tracepoints within those
modules to be hidden.
This fix was merged in kernel 3.15, so there is no use in applying this
work-around starting from that kernel.
This removes a dependency on kallsyms_lookup_name() for the symbol
"tracepoint_module_notify".

KVM: x86: Use gpa_t for cr2/gpa to fix TDP support on 32-bit KVM
Convert a plethora of parameters and variables in the MMU and page fault
flows from type gva_t to gpa_t to properly handle TDP on 32-bit KVM.
Thanks to PSE and PAE paging, 32-bit kernels can access 64-bit physical
addresses. When TDP is enabled, the fault address is a guest physical
address and thus can be a 64-bit value, even when both KVM and its guest
are using 32-bit virtual addressing, e.g. VMX's VMCS.GUEST_PHYSICAL is a
64-bit field, not a natural width field.
Using a gva_t for the fault address means KVM will incorrectly drop the
upper 32-bits of the GPA. Ditto for gva_to_gpa() when it is used to
translate L2 GPAs to L1 GPAs.
Opportunistically rename variables and parameters to better reflect the
dual address modes, e.g. use "cr2_or_gpa" for fault addresses and plain
"addr" instead of "vaddr" when the address may be either a GVA or an L2
GPA. Similarly, use "gpa" in the nonpaging_page_fault() flows to avoid
a confusing "gpa_t gva" declaration; this also sets the stage for a
future patch to combing nonpaging_page_fault() and tdp_page_fault() with
minimal churn.
Sprinkle in a few comments to document flows where an address is known
to be a GVA and thus can be safely truncated to a 32-bit value. Add
WARNs in kvm_handle_page_fault() and FNAME(gva_to_gpa_nested)() to help
document such cases and detect bugs.

This gives meaning to the task state value. Only the bit masks are
enumerated, as defined compositions are not exhaustive listing of all
possible values and there would be a lot of unknown. Interpretation of
combination of bit flags is left to the consumer of the event.
The rwbs value of block request events is in fact a series of bit fields
set to 0 or 1. The enumeration values are all powers of 2, trace readers
could interpret this as a bit field enum and show the result as a
concatenation of the corresponding flags. For example, with a matching
patch for babeltrace2's pretty sink, the output for a rwbs value of 12
would be:

lttng-abi: Document ioctl numbers reserved by lttng-abi-old.h
Document the ioctl numbers reserved by lttng-abi-old.h in the

assining numbers to new lttng ioctl commands.
Introduce the lttng_get_clid helper to always check for NULL pointer
when getting the client id. While not always strictly needed depending
on the tracepoint callsite, prefer robustness of instrumentation and
always check for NULL rather than play whack-a-mole.
Within include/linux/sunrpc/clnt.h:struct rpc_cltn, the cl_clid field
is an unsigned integer, which is the type expected by the tracepoint
signature.
However, looking into net/sunrpc/clnt.c:rpc_alloc_clid(), its allocation
considers negative signed integer as errors.
Therefore, in order to properly show "-1" in the trace output (rather
than MAX_INT) when called with a NULL task->tk_client, move to a
signed integer as backing type for the client_id field.
So far we have reserved only relatively high fixed amount of revoke
credits for each transaction. We over-reserved by large amount for most
cases but when freeing large directories or files with data journalling,
the fixed amount is not enough. In fact the worst case estimate is
inconveniently large (maximum extent size) for freeing of one extent.
We fix this by doing proper estimate of the amount of blocks that need
to be revoked when removing blocks from the inode due to truncate or
hole punching and otherwise reserve just a small amount of revoke
credits for each transaction to accommodate freeing of xattrs block or
so.

btrfs: add dedicated members for start and length of a block group
The on-disk format of block group item makes use of the key that stores

offset/length is not properly aligned as u64.
Add start (key.objectid) and length (key.offset) members to block group

local variable for key is used.
For unknown reasons, the member 'used' in the block group struct is
stored in the b-tree item and accessed everywhere using the special
accessor helper. Let's unify it and make it a regular member and only
update the item before writing it to the tree.
The item is still being used for flags and chunk_objectid, there's some

Fix: lttng-tracepoint module notifier should return NOTIFY_OK
Module notifiers should return NOTIFY_OK on success rather than the
value 0. The return value 0 does not seem to have any ill side-effects
in the notifier chain caller, but it is preferable to respect the API
requirements in case this changes in the future.
Notifiers can encapsulate a negative errno value with
notifier_from_errno(), but this is not needed by the LTTng tracepoint
notifier.
The approach taken in this notifier is to just print a console warning
on error, because tracing failure should not prevent loading a module.
So we definitely do not want to stop notifier iteration. Returning
an error without stopping iteration is not really that useful, because
only the return value of the last callback is returned to notifier chain
caller.
Fix: Don't print ring-buffer's records count when it is not used
The teardown of a ring buffer causes a number of diagnostic messages

LTTNG_RING_BUFFER_COUNT_EVENTS defined.
Move the "records count" printing to a different function and stub it
out when LTTNG_RING_BUFFER_COUNT_EVENTS is not defined
(default configuration).
This eliminates messages of the following form from the dmesg output

Fix: do not set quiescent state on channel destroy
Setting the quiescent state to true for each stream at channel
destruction is not useful: there are no readers left anyway at

The side-effect perceived of setting this quiescent state on

packet (due to flush_empty performed when setting the quiescent state)
which is never consumed. This shows up in the lttng-modules error
reporting.

random: only read from /dev/random after its pool has received 128 bits
Immediately after boot, we allow reads from /dev/random before its

We do this by repurposing the initialized flag in the entropy pool
struct, and use the initialized flag in the blocking pool to indicate
whether it is safe to pull from the blocking pool.
To do this, we needed to rework when we decide to push entropy from the
input pool to the blocking pool, since the initialized flag for the
input pool was used for this purpose. To simplify things, we no
longer use the initialized flag for that purpose, nor do we use the
entropy_total field any more.

Patch series "mm: Generalize putback functions"]

This patch (of 4):
The patch moves the calculation from putback_inactive_pages() to

similar to move_active_pages_to_lru().
To do that, we account activated pages in reclaim_stat::nr_activate.
Since a page may change its LRU type from anon to file cache inside
shrink_page_list() (see ClearPageSwapBacked()), we have to account pages
for the both types. So, nr_activate becomes an array.
Previously we used nr_activate to account PGACTIVATE events, but now we
account them into pgactivate variable (since they are about number of
pages in general, not about sum of hpage_nr_pages).
