The commit 1f1562fcd0 ("cgroup/cpuset: Don't let child cpusets
restrict parent in default hierarchy") inteded to relax the check only
on the default hierarchy (or v2 mode) but it dropped the check in v1
too.
This patch returns and separates the legacy-only validations so that
they can be considered only in the v1 mode, which should enforce the old
constraints for the sake of compatibility.

In function cgroup_base_stat_flush(), we update cgroup_base_stat by
getting rstatc->bstat and adjust delta to related fields.
There are two convention to assign cgroup_base_stat in this function:
* rstat2 = rstat1
* rstat2.cputime = rstat1.cputime
The second convention may make audience think just field "cputime" is
updated, while cputime is the only field in cgroup_base_stat.
Let's use the same convention to eliminate this confusion.

Current scheme of having userspace decompress kernel modules before
loading them into the kernel runs afoul of LoadPin security policy, as
it loses link between the source of kernel module on the disk and binary
blob that is being loaded into the kernel. To solve this issue let's
implement decompression in kernel, so that we can pass a file descriptor
of compressed module file into finit_module() which will keep LoadPin
happy.
To let userspace know what compression/decompression scheme kernel
supports it will create /sys/module/compression attribute. kmod can read
this attribute and decide if it can pass compressed file to
finit_module(). New MODULE_INIT_COMPRESSED_DATA flag indicates that the
kernel should attempt to decompress the data read from file descriptor
prior to trying load the module.
To simplify things kernel will only implement single decompression
method matching compression method selected when generating modules.
This patch implements gzip and xz; more can be added later,

Pull scheduler updates from Borislav Petkov:
"Mostly minor things this time; some highlights:
- core-sched: Add 'Forced Idle' accounting; this allows to track how
much CPU time is 'lost' due to core scheduling constraints.
- psi: Fix for MEM_FULL; a task running reclaim would be counted as a
runnable task and prevent MEM_FULL from being reported.
- cpuacct: Long standing fixes for some cgroup accounting issues.
- rt: Bandwidth timer could, under unusual circumstances, be failed
to armed, leading to indefinite throttling."

Pull workqueue updates from Tejun Heo:
- The code around workqueue scheduler hooks got reorganized early 2019
which unfortuately introdued a couple subtle and rare race conditions
where preemption can mangle internal workqueue state triggering a
WARN and possibly causing a stall or at least delay in execution.
Frederic fixed both early December and the fixes were sitting in
for-5.16-fixes which I forgot to push. They are here now. I'll
forward them to stable after they land.
- The scheduler hook reorganization has more implicatoins for workqueue
code in that the hooks are now more strictly synchronized and thus
the interacting operations can become more straight-forward.
Lai is in the process of simplifying workqueue code and this pull
request contains some of the patches.

We noticed our tc ebpf tools can't start after we upgrade our in-house kernel
version from 4.19 to 5.10. That is because of the behaviour change in bpffs
caused by commit d2935de7e4 ("vfs: Convert bpf to use the new mount API").
In our tc ebpf tools, we do strict environment check. If the environment is
not matched, we won't allow to start the ebpf progs. One of the check is whether
bpffs is properly mounted. The mount information of bpffs in kernel-4.19 and
kernel-5.10 are as follows:
- kernel 4.19
$ mount -t bpf bpffs /sys/fs/bpf
$ mount -t bpf
bpffs on /sys/fs/bpf type bpf (rw,relatime)
- kernel 5.10
$ mount -t bpf bpffs /sys/fs/bpf
$ mount -t bpf
none on /sys/fs/bpf type bpf (rw,relatime)
The device name in kernel-5.10 is displayed as none instead of bpffs, then our
environment check fails. Currently we modify the tools to adopt to the kernel
behaviour change, but I think we'd better change the kernel code to keep the
behavior consistent.
After this change, the mount information will be displayed the same with the
behavior in kernel-4.19, for example:
$ mount -t bpf bpffs /sys/fs/bpf
$ mount -t bpf
bpffs on /sys/fs/bpf type bpf (rw,relatime)

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"The most signigicant change here is the addition of a new cpufreq
'P-state' driver for AMD processors as a better replacement for the
venerable acpi-cpufreq driver.
There are also other cpufreq updates (in the core, intel_pstate, ARM
drivers), PM core updates (mostly related to adding new macros for
declaring PM operations which should make the lives of driver
developers somewhat easier), and a bunch of assorted fixes and
cleanups.
Summary:
- Add new P-state driver for AMD processors (Huang Rui).
- Fix initialization of min and max frequency QoS requests in the
cpufreq core (Rafael Wysocki).
- Fix EPP handling on Alder Lake in intel_pstate (Srinivas
Pandruvada).
- Make intel_pstate update cpuinfo.max_freq when notified of HWP
capabilities changes and drop a redundant function call from that
driver (Rafael Wysocki).
- Improve IRQ support in the Qcom cpufreq driver (Ard Biesheuvel,
Stephen Boyd, Vladimir Zapolskiy).
- Fix double devm_remap() in the Mediatek cpufreq driver (Hector
Yuan).
- Introduce thermal pressure helpers for cpufreq CPU cooling (Lukasz
Luba).
- Make cpufreq use default_groups in kobj_type (Greg Kroah-Hartman).
- Make cpuidle use default_groups in kobj_type (Greg Kroah-Hartman).
- Fix two comments in cpuidle code (Jason Wang, Yang Li).
- Allow model-specific normal EPB value to be used in the intel_epb
sysfs attribute handling code (Srinivas Pandruvada).
- Simplify locking in pm_runtime_put_suppliers() (Rafael Wysocki).
- Add safety net to supplier device release in the runtime PM core
code (Rafael Wysocki).
- Capture device status before disabling runtime PM for it (Rafael
Wysocki).
- Add new macros for declaring PM operations to allow drivers to
avoid guarding them with CONFIG_PM #ifdefs or __maybe_unused and
update some drivers to use these macros (Paul Cercueil).
- Allow ACPI hardware signature to be honoured during restore from
hibernation (David Woodhouse).
- Update outdated operating performance points (OPP) documentation
(Tang Yizhou).
- Reduce log severity for informative message regarding frequency
transition failures in devfreq (Tzung-Bi Shih).
- Add DRAM frequency controller devfreq driver for Allwinner sunXi
SoCs (Samuel Holland).
- Add missing COMMON_CLK dependency to sun8i devfreq driver (Arnd
Bergmann).
- Add support for new layout of Psys PowerLimit Register on SPR to
the Intel RAPL power capping driver (Zhang Rui).

Core
----
- Defer freeing TCP skbs to the BH handler, whenever possible,
or at least perform the freeing outside of the socket lock section
to decrease cross-CPU allocator work and improve latency.
- Add netdevice refcount tracking to locate sources of netdevice
and net namespace refcount leaks.
- Make Tx watchdog less intrusive - avoid pausing Tx and restarting
all queues from a single CPU removing latency spikes.
- Various small optimizations throughout the stack from Eric Dumazet.
- Make netdev->dev_addr[] constant, force modifications to go via
appropriate helpers to allow us to keep addresses in ordered data
structures.

Pull random number generator updates from Jason Donenfeld:
"These a bit more numerous than usual for the RNG, due to folks
resubmitting patches that had been pending prior and generally renewed
interest.
There are a few categories of patches in here:
1) Dominik Brodowski and I traded a series back and forth for a some
weeks that fixed numerous issues related to seeds being provided
at extremely early boot by the firmware, before other parts of the
kernel or of the RNG have been initialized, both fixing some
crashes and addressing correctness around early boot randomness.
One of these is marked for stable.
2) I replaced the RNG's usage of SHA-1 with BLAKE2s in the entropy
extractor, and made the construction a bit safer and more
standard. This was sort of a long overdue low hanging fruit, as we
were supposed to have phased out SHA-1 usage quite some time ago
(even if all we needed here was non-invertibility). Along the way
it also made extraction 131% faster. This required a bit of
Kconfig and symbol plumbing to make things work well with the
crypto libraries, which is one of the reasons why I'm sending you
this pull early in the cycle.
3) I got rid of a truly superfluous call to RDRAND in the hot path,
which resulted in a whopping 370% increase in performance.
4) Sebastian Andrzej Siewior sent some patches regarding PREEMPT_RT,
the full series of which wasn't ready yet, but the first two
preparatory cleanups were good on their own. One of them touches
files in kernel/irq/, which is the other reason why I'm sending
you this pull early in the cycle.
5) Other assorted correctness fixes from Eric Biggers, Jann Horn,
Mark Brown, Dominik Brodowski, and myself"

The MSI entries for multi-MSI are populated en bloc for the MSI descriptor,
but the current code invokes the population inside the per interrupt loop
which triggers a warning in the sysfs code and causes the interrupt
allocation to fail.
Move it outside of the loop so it works correctly for single and multi-MSI.

The event_command.parse() callback is responsible for parsing and
registering triggers. The existing command implementions for this
callback duplicate a lot of the same code, so to clean up and
consolidate those implementations, introduce a handful of helper
functions for implementors to use.
This also makes it easier for new commands to be implemented and
allows them to focus more on the customizations they provide rather
than obscuring and complicating it with boilerplate code.

The name of the func() callback on event_trigger_ops is too generic
and is easily confused with other callbacks with that name, so change
it to something that reflects its actual purpose.
In this case, the main purpose of the callback is to implement an
event trigger, so call it trigger() instead.
Also add some more documentation to event_trigger_ops describing the
callbacks a bit better.

Pull clocksource watchdog updates from Paul McKenney:
- Avoid accidental unstable marking of clocksources by rejecting
clocksource measurements where the source of the skew is the delay
reading reference clocksource itself. This change avoids many of the
current false positives caused by epic cache-thrashing workloads.
- Reduce the default clocksource_watchdog() retries to 2, thus offsetting
the increased overhead due to #1 above rereading the reference
clocksource.

In the function bacct_add_task the code reading task->exit_code was
introduced in commit f3cef7a994 ("[PATCH] csa: basic accounting over
taskstats"), and it is not entirely clear what the taskstats interface
is trying to return as only returning the exit_code of the first task
in a process doesn't make a lot of sense.
As best as I can figure the intent is to return task->exit_code after
a task exits. The field is returned with per task fields, so the
exit_code of the entire process is not wanted. Only the value of the
first task is returned so this is not a useful way to get the per task
ptrace stop code. The ordinary case of returning this value is
returning after a task exits, which also precludes use for getting
a ptrace value.
It is common to for the first task of a process to also be the last
task of a process so this field may have done something reasonable by
accident in testing.
Make ac_exitcode a reliable per task value by always returning it for
every exited task.
Setting ac_exitcode in a sensible mannter makes it possible to continue
to provide this value going forward.

The function wait_task_zombie is defined to always returns the process not
thread exit status. Unfortunately when process group exit support
was added to wait_task_zombie the WNOWAIT case was overlooked.
Usually tsk->exit_code and tsk->signal->group_exit_code will be in sync
so fixing this is bug probably has no effect in practice. But fix
it anyway so that people aren't scratching their heads about why
the two code paths are different.

The comment about coredumps not reaching do_group_exit and the
corresponding BUG_ON are bogus.
What happens and has happened for years is that get_signal calls
do_coredump (which sets SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT and group_exit_code) and
then do_group_exit passing the signal number. Then do_group_exit
ignores the exit_code it is passed and uses signal->group_exit_code
from the coredump.
The comment and BUG_ON were correct when they were added during the
2.5 development cycle, but became obsolete and incorrect when
get_signal was changed to fall through to do_group_exit after
do_coredump in 2.6.10-rc2.
So remove the stale comment and BUG_ON

When I say remove I mean remove. All profile_task_exit and
profile_munmap do is call a blocking notifier chain. The helpers
profile_task_register and profile_task_unregister are not called
anywhere in the tree. Which means this is all dead code.
So remove the dead code and make it easier to read do_exit.

This helper is misleading. It tests for an ongoing exec as well as
the process having received a fatal signal.
Sometimes it is appropriate to treat an on-going exec differently than
a process that is shutting down due to a fatal signal. In particular
taking the fast path out of exit_signals instead of retargeting
signals is not appropriate during exec, and not changing the the exit
code in do_group_exit during exec.
Removing the helper makes it more obvious what is going on as both
cases must be coded for explicitly.
While removing the helper fix the two cases where I have observed
using signal_group_exit resulted in the wrong result.
In exit_signals only test for SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT so that signals are
retargetted during an exec.
In do_group_exit use 0 as the exit code during an exec as de_thread
does not set group_exit_code. As best as I can determine
group_exit_code has been is set to 0 most of the time during
de_thread. During a thread group stop group_exit_code is set to the
stop signal and when the thread group receives SIGCONT group_exit_code
is reset to 0.
