On sparc64, the jump_label entry->code field is of type u32, but
pointers are 64-bit. Silence the warning by casting entry->code to an
unsigned long before casting it to a pointer. This is also what the

In ctx_resched(), EVENT_FLEXIBLE should be sched_out when EVENT_PINNED is
added. However, ctx_resched() calculates ctx_event_type before checking
this condition. As a result, pinned events will NOT get higher priority
than flexible events.
The following shows this issue on an Intel CPU (where ref-cycles can
only use one hardware counter).
1. First start:
perf stat -C 0 -e ref-cycles -I 1000
2. Then, in the second console, run:
perf stat -C 0 -e ref-cycles:D -I 1000
The second perf uses pinned events, which is expected to have higher
priority. However, because it failed in ctx_resched(). It is never
run.
This patch fixes this by calculating ctx_event_type after re-evaluating
event_type.

Secondary is that we appear to have 2 nearly identical hooks in the
nohz enter code, set_cpu_sd_state_idle() and
nohz_balance_enter_idle(). Fold the whole set_cpu_sd_state thing into
nohz_balance_{enter,exit}_idle.

- remove all unnecessary includes from the .c files that
are already included in kernel/sched/sched.h.
Finally, make all scheduler .c files use a single common header:

Commit 5905429ad8 ("fork: Provide usercopy whitelisting for
task_struct") noted that:
"While the blocked and saved_sigmask fields of task_struct are copied to
userspace (via sigmask_to_save() and setup_rt_frame()), it is always
copied with a static length (i.e. sizeof(sigset_t))."
However, this is not true in the case of compat signals, whose sigset
is copied by put_compat_sigset and receives size as an argument.
At most call sites, put_compat_sigset is copying a sigset from the
current task_struct. This triggers a warning when
CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY is active. However, by marking this function as
static inline, the warning can be avoided because in all of these cases
the size is constant at compile time, which is allowed. The only site
where this is not the case is handling the rt_sigpending syscall, but
there the copy is being made from a stack local variable so does not
trigger the warning.
Move put_compat_sigset to compat.h, and mark it static inline. This
fixes the WARN on MIPS.

Please not that once you merge net into net-next at some point, there

On CPU hotunplug the enqueued timers of the unplugged CPU are migrated to a
live CPU. This happens from the control thread which initiated the unplug.
If the CPU on which the control thread runs came out from a longer idle
period then the base clock of that CPU might be stale because the control
thread runs prior to any event which forwards the clock.
In such a case the timers from the unplugged CPU are queued on the live CPU
based on the stale clock which can cause large delays due to increased
granularity of the outer timer wheels which are far away from base:;clock.
But there is a worse problem than that. The following sequence of events
illustrates it:
- CPU0 timer1 is queued expires = 59969 and base->clk = 59131.
The timer is queued at wheel level 2, with resulting expiry time = 60032
(due to level granularity).
- CPU1 enters idle @60007, with next timer expiry @60020.
- CPU0 is hotplugged at @60009
- CPU1 exits idle and runs the control thread which migrates the
timers from CPU0
timer1 is now queued in level 0 for immediate handling in the next
softirq because the requested expiry time 59969 is before CPU1 base->clk
60007
- CPU1 runs code which forwards the base clock which succeeds because the
next expiring timer. which was collected at idle entry time is still set
to 60020.
So it forwards beyond 60007 and therefore misses to expire the migrated
timer1. That timer gets expired when the wheel wraps around again, which
takes between 63 and 630ms depending on the HZ setting.
Address both problems by invoking forward_timer_base() for the control CPUs
timer base. All other places, which might run into a similar problem
(mod_timer()/add_timer_on()) already invoke forward_timer_base() to avoid
that.

wake_klogd is a local variable in console_unlock(). The information
is lost when the console_lock owner using the busy wait added by
the commit dbdda842fe ("printk: Add console owner and waiter
logic to load balance console writes"). The following race is
possible:
CPU0 CPU1
console_unlock()
for (;;)
/* calling console for last message */
printk()
log_store()
log_next_seq++;
/* see new message */
if (seen_seq != log_next_seq) {
wake_klogd = true;
seen_seq = log_next_seq;
}
console_lock_spinning_enable();
if (console_trylock_spinning())
/* spinning */
if (console_lock_spinning_disable_and_check()) {
printk_safe_exit_irqrestore(flags);
return;
console_unlock()
if (seen_seq != log_next_seq) {
/* already seen */
/* nothing to do */
Result: Nobody would wakeup klogd.
One solution would be to make a global variable from wake_klogd.
But then we would need to manipulate it under a lock or so.
This patch wakes klogd also when console_lock is passed to the
spinning waiter. It looks like the right way to go. Also userspace
should have a chance to see and store any "flood" of messages.
Note that the very late klogd wake up was a historic solution.
It made sense on single CPU systems or when sys_syslog() operations
were synchronized using the big kernel lock like in v2.1.113.
But it is questionable these days.

Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"Yet another pile of melted spectrum related changes:
- sanitize the array_index_nospec protection mechanism: Remove the
overengineered array_index_nospec_mask_check() magic and allow
const-qualified types as index to avoid temporary storage in a
non-const local variable.
- make the microcode loader more robust by properly propagating error
codes. Provide information about new feature bits after micro code
was updated so administrators can act upon.
- optimizations of the entry ASM code which reduce code footprint and
make the code simpler and faster.
- fix the {pmd,pud}_{set,clear}_flags() implementations to work
properly on paravirt kernels by removing the address translation
operations.
- revert the harmful vmexit_fill_RSB() optimization
- use IBRS around firmware calls
- teach objtool about retpolines and add annotations for indirect
jumps and calls.
- explicitly disable jumplabel patching in __init code and handle
patching failures properly instead of silently ignoring them.
- remove indirect paravirt calls for writing the speculation control
MSR as these calls are obviously proving the same attack vector
which is tried to be mitigated.
- a few small fixes which address build issues with recent compiler
and assembler versions"
