If we load a BPF scheduler while another scheduler is already running,
alloc_kick_pseqs() would be called again, overwriting the previously
allocated arrays.
Fix by moving the alloc_kick_pseqs() call after the scx_enable_state()
check, ensuring that the arrays are only allocated when a scheduler can
actually be loaded.

Implement the missing cgroup_set_idle() callback that was marked as a
TODO. This allows BPF schedulers to be notified when a cgroup's idle
state changes, enabling them to adjust their scheduling behavior
accordingly.
The implementation follows the same pattern as other cgroup callbacks
like cgroup_set_weight() and cgroup_set_bandwidth(). It checks if the
BPF scheduler has implemented the callback and invokes it with the
appropriate parameters.
Fixes a spelling error in the cgroup_set_bandwidth() documentation.

The check for some lost idle pelt time should be always done when
pick_next_task_fair() fails to pick a task and not only when we call it
from the fair fast-path.
The case happens when the last running task on rq is a RT or DL task. When
the latter goes to sleep and the /Sum of util_sum of the rq is at the max
value, we don't account the lost of idle time whereas we should.

IBM CI tool reported kernel warning[1] when running a CPU removal

Git bisects to: commit 4ae8d9aa9f9d ("sched/deadline: Fix dl_server getting stuck")
This happens since:
- dl_server hrtimer gets enqueued close to cpu offline, when
kthread_park enqueues a fair task.
- CPU goes offline and drmgr removes it from cpu_present_mask.
- hrtimer fires and warning is hit.
Fix it by stopping the dl_server before CPU is marked dead.

Some file systems like FUSE-based ones or overlayfs may record the backing
file in struct vm_area_struct vm_file, instead of the user file that the
user mmapped.
That causes perf to misreport the device major/minor numbers of the file
system of the file, and the generation of the file, and potentially other
inode details. There is an existing helper file_user_inode() for that
situation.
Use file_user_inode() instead of file_inode() to get the inode for MMAP2
events.
Example:
Setup:
# cd /root
# mkdir test ; cd test ; mkdir lower upper work merged
# cp `which cat` lower
# mount -t overlay overlay -olowerdir=lower,upperdir=upper,workdir=work merged

Some file systems like FUSE-based ones or overlayfs may record the backing
file in struct vm_area_struct vm_file, instead of the user file that the
user mmapped.
Since commit def3ae83da02f ("fs: store real path instead of fake path in
backing file f_path"), file_path() no longer returns the user file path
when applied to a backing file. There is an existing helper
file_user_path() for that situation.
Use file_user_path() instead of file_path() to get the path for MMAP
and MMAP2 events.
Example:
Setup:
# cd /root
# mkdir test ; cd test ; mkdir lower upper work merged
# cp `which cat` lower
# mount -t overlay overlay -olowerdir=lower,upperdir=upper,workdir=work merged

It was reported that Intel PT address filters do not work in Docker
containers. That relates to the use of overlayfs.
overlayfs records the backing file in struct vm_area_struct vm_file,
instead of the user file that the user mmapped. In order for an address
filter to match, it must compare to the user file inode. There is an
existing helper file_user_inode() for that situation.
Use file_user_inode() instead of file_inode() to get the inode for address
filter matching.
Example:
Setup:
# cd /root
# mkdir test ; cd test ; mkdir lower upper work merged
# cp `which cat` lower
# mount -t overlay overlay -olowerdir=lower,upperdir=upper,workdir=work merged
# perf record --buildid-mmap -e intel_pt//u --filter 'filter * @ /root/test/merged/cat' -- /root/test/merged/cat /proc/self/maps

Currently if a user enqueue a work item using schedule_delayed_work() the
used wq is "system_wq" (per-cpu wq) while queue_delayed_work() use
WORK_CPU_UNBOUND (used when a cpu is not specified). The same applies to
schedule_work() that is using system_wq and queue_work(), that makes use
again of WORK_CPU_UNBOUND.
This lack of consistentcy cannot be addressed without refactoring the API.
alloc_workqueue() treats all queues as per-CPU by default, while unbound
workqueues must opt-in via WQ_UNBOUND.
This default is suboptimal: most workloads benefit from unbound queues,
allowing the scheduler to place worker threads where they’re needed and
reducing noise when CPUs are isolated.
This change add the WQ_UNBOUND flag to pm_wq, to make explicit this
workqueue can be unbound and that it does not benefit from per-cpu work.
Once migration is complete, WQ_UNBOUND can be removed and unbound will
become the implicit default.

In preparation for hierarchical schedulers, change scx_bpf_dsq_insert() and
scx_bpf_dsq_insert_vtime() to return bool instead of void. With
sub-schedulers, there will be no reliable way to guarantee a task is still
owned by the sub-scheduler at insertion time (e.g., the task may have been
migrated to another scheduler). The bool return value will enable
sub-schedulers to detect and gracefully handle insertion failures.
For the root scheduler, insertion failures will continue to trigger scheduler
abort via scx_error(), so existing code doesn't need to check the return
value. Backward compatibility is maintained through compat wrappers.
Also update scx_bpf_dsq_move() documentation to clarify that it can return
false for sub-schedulers when @dsq_id points to a disallowed local DSQ.

scx_bpf_dsq_insert_vtime() and scx_bpf_select_cpu_and() currently have 5
parameters. An upcoming change will add aux__prog parameter which will exceed
BPF's 5 argument limit.
Prepare by adding new kfuncs __scx_bpf_dsq_insert_vtime() and
__scx_bpf_select_cpu_and() that take args structs. The existing kfuncs are
kept as compatibility wrappers. BPF programs use inline wrappers that detect
kernel API version via bpf_core_type_exists() and use the new struct-based
kfuncs when available, falling back to compat kfuncs otherwise. This allows
BPF programs to work with both old and new kernels.

With the planned hierarchical scheduler support, sub-schedulers will need to
be verified for authority before being allowed to modify task->scx.slice and
task->scx.dsq_vtime. Add scx_bpf_task_set_slice() and
scx_bpf_task_set_dsq_vtime() which will perform the necessary permission
checks.
Root schedulers can still directly write to these fields, so this doesn't

On systems with >4096 CPUs, scx_kick_cpus_pnt_seqs allocation fails during
boot because it exceeds the 32,768 byte percpu allocator limit.
Restructure to use DEFINE_PER_CPU() for the per-CPU pointers, with each CPU
pointing to its own kvzalloc'd array. Move allocation from boot time to
scx_enable() and free in scx_disable(), so the O(nr_cpu_ids^2) memory is only
consumed when sched_ext is active.
Use RCU to guard against racing with free. Arrays are freed via call_rcu()
and kick_cpus_irq_workfn() uses rcu_dereference_bh() with a NULL check.
While at it, rename to scx_kick_pseqs for brevity and update comments to
clarify these are pick_task sequence numbers.

The sched_ext code calls queue_balance_callback() during enqueue_task()
to defer operations that drop multiple locks until we can unpin them.
The call assumes that the rq lock is held until the callbacks are
invoked, and the pending callbacks will not be visible to any other
threads. This is enforced by a WARN_ON_ONCE() in rq_pin_lock().
However, balance_one() may actually drop the lock during a BPF dispatch
call. Another thread may win the race to get the rq lock and see the
pending callback. To avoid this, sched_ext must only queue the callback
after the dispatch calls have completed.

Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
"The previous fix to trace_marker required updating trace_marker_raw as
well. The difference between trace_marker_raw from trace_marker is
that the raw version is for applications to write binary structures
directly into the ring buffer instead of writing ASCII strings. This
is for applications that will read the raw data from the ring buffer
and get the data structures directly. It's a bit quicker than using
the ASCII version.
Unfortunately, it appears that our test suite has several tests that
test writes to the trace_marker file, but lacks any tests to the
trace_marker_raw file (this needs to be remedied). Two issues came
about the update to the trace_marker_raw file that syzbot found:
- Fix tracing_mark_raw_write() to use per CPU buffer
The fix to use the per CPU buffer to copy from user space was
needed for both the trace_maker and trace_maker_raw file.
The fix for reading from user space into per CPU buffers properly
fixed the trace_marker write function, but the trace_marker_raw
file wasn't fixed properly. The user space data was correctly
written into the per CPU buffer, but the code that wrote into the
ring buffer still used the user space pointer and not the per CPU
buffer that had the user space data already written.
- Stop the fortify string warning from writing into trace_marker_raw
After converting the copy_from_user_nofault() into a memcpy(),
another issue appeared. As writes to the trace_marker_raw expects
binary data, the first entry is a 4 byte identifier. The entry
structure is defined as:
struct {
struct trace_entry ent;
int id;
char buf[];
};
The size of this structure is reserved on the ring buffer with:
size = sizeof(*entry) + cnt;
Then it is copied from the buffer into the ring buffer with:
memcpy(&entry->id, buf, cnt);
This use to be a copy_from_user_nofault(), but now converting it to
a memcpy() triggers the fortify-string code, and causes a warning.
The allocated space is actually more than what is copied, as the
cnt used also includes the entry->id portion. Allocating
sizeof(*entry) plus cnt is actually allocating 4 bytes more than
what is needed.
Change the size function to:
size = struct_size(entry, buf, cnt - sizeof(entry->id));
And update the memcpy() to unsafe_memcpy()"

This is because fortify string sees that the size of entry->id is only 4
bytes, but it is writing more than that. But this is OK as the
dynamic_array is allocated to handle that copy.
The size allocated on the ring buffer was actually a bit too big:
size = sizeof(*entry) + cnt;
But cnt includes the 'id' and the buffer data, so adding cnt to the size
of *entry actually allocates too much on the ring buffer.
Change the allocation to:
size = struct_size(entry, buf, cnt - sizeof(entry->id));
and the memcpy() to unsafe_memcpy() with an added justification.

The fix to use a per CPU buffer to read user space tested only the writes
to trace_marker. But it appears that the selftests are missing tests to
the trace_maker_raw file. The trace_maker_raw file is used by applications
that writes data structures and not strings into the file, and the tools
read the raw ring buffer to process the structures it writes.
The fix that reads the per CPU buffers passes the new per CPU buffer to
the trace_marker file writes, but the update to the trace_marker_raw write
read the data from user space into the per CPU buffer, but then still used
then passed the user space address to the function that records the data.
Pass in the per CPU buffer and not the user space address.

The arraymap and hashtab duplicate the logic that checks for and frees
internal structs (timer, workqueue, task_work) based on
BTF record flags. Centralize this by introducing two helpers:
* bpf_map_has_internal_structs(map)
Returns true if the map value contains any of internal structs:
BPF_TIMER | BPF_WORKQUEUE | BPF_TASK_WORK.
* bpf_map_free_internal_structs(map, obj)
Frees the internal structs for a single value object.
Convert arraymap and both the prealloc/malloc hashtab paths to use the
new generic functions. This keeps the functionality for when/how to free
these special fields in one place and makes it easier to add support for
new internal structs in the future without touching every map
implementation.

When unpinning a BPF hash table (htab or htab_lru) that contains internal
structures (timer, workqueue, or task_work) in its values, a BUG warning
is triggered:
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/bpf/hashtab.c:244
in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, non_block: 0, pid: 14, name: ksoftirqd/0
...
The issue arises from the interaction between BPF object unpinning and
RCU callback mechanisms:
1. BPF object unpinning uses ->free_inode() which schedules cleanup via
call_rcu(), deferring the actual freeing to an RCU callback that
executes within the RCU_SOFTIRQ context.
2. During cleanup of hash tables containing internal structures,
htab_map_free_internal_structs() is invoked, which includes
cond_resched() or cond_resched_rcu() calls to yield the CPU during
potentially long operations.
However, cond_resched() or cond_resched_rcu() cannot be safely called from
atomic RCU softirq context, leading to the BUG warning when attempting
to reschedule.
Fix this by changing from ->free_inode() to ->destroy_inode() and rename
bpf_free_inode() to bpf_destroy_inode() for BPF objects (prog, map, link).
This allows direct inode freeing without RCU callback scheduling,
avoiding the invalid context warning.

Rename the storage_get_func_atomic flag to a more generic non_sleepable
flag that tracks whether a helper or kfunc may be called from a
non-sleepable context. This makes the flag more broadly applicable
beyond just storage_get helpers. See [0] for more context.
The flag is now set unconditionally for all helpers and kfuncs when:
- RCU critical section is active.
- Preemption is disabled.
- IRQs are disabled.
- In a non-sleepable context within a sleepable program (e.g., timer
callbacks), which is indicated by !in_sleepable().
Previously, the flag was only set for storage_get helpers in these
contexts. With this change, it can be used by any code that needs to
differentiate between sleepable and non-sleepable contexts at the
per-instruction level.
The existing usage in do_misc_fixups() for storage_get helpers is
preserved by checking is_storage_get_function() before using the flag.

Fix the BPF verifier to correctly determine the sleepable context of
async callbacks based on the async primitive type rather than the arming
program's context.
The bug is in in_sleepable() which uses OR logic to check if the current
execution context is sleepable. When a sleepable program arms a timer
callback, the callback's state correctly has in_sleepable=false, but
in_sleepable() would still return true due to env->prog->sleepable being
true. This incorrectly allows sleepable helpers like
bpf_copy_from_user() inside timer callbacks when armed from sleepable
programs, even though timer callbacks always execute in non-sleepable
context.
Fix in_sleepable() to rely solely on env->cur_state->in_sleepable, and
initialize state->in_sleepable to env->prog->sleepable in
do_check_common() for the main program entry. This ensures the sleepable
context is properly tracked per verification state rather than being
overridden by the program's sleepability.
The env->cur_state NULL check in in_sleepable() was only needed for
do_misc_fixups() which runs after verification when env->cur_state is
set to NULL. Update do_misc_fixups() to use env->prog->sleepable
directly for the storage_get_function check, and remove the redundant
NULL check from in_sleepable().
Introduce is_async_cb_sleepable() helper to explicitly determine async
callback sleepability based on the primitive type:
- bpf_timer callbacks are never sleepable
- bpf_wq and bpf_task_work callbacks are always sleepable
Add verifier_bug() check to catch unhandled async callback types,
ensuring future additions cannot be silently mishandled. Move the
is_task_work_add_kfunc() forward declaration to the top alongside other
callback-related helpers. We update push_async_cb() to adjust to the new
changes.
At the same time, while simplifying in_sleepable(), we notice a problem
in do_misc_fixups. Fix storage_get helpers to use GFP_ATOMIC when called
from non-sleepable contexts within sleepable programs, such as bpf_timer
callbacks.
Currently, the check in do_misc_fixups assumes that env->prog->sleepable,
previously in_sleepable(env) which only resolved to this check before
last commit, holds across the program's execution, but that is not true.
Instead, the func_atomic bit must be set whenever we see the function
being called in an atomic context. Previously, this is being done when
the helper is invoked in atomic contexts in sleepable programs, we can
simply just set the value to true without doing an in_sleepable() check.
We must also do a standalone in_sleepable() check to handle cases where
the async callback itself is armed from a sleepable program, but is
itself non-sleepable (e.g., timer callback) and invokes such a helper,
thus needing the func_atomic bit to be true for the said call.
Adjust do_misc_fixups() to drop any checks regarding sleepable nature of
the program, and just depend on the func_atomic bit to decide which GFP
flag to pass.

Pull tracing clean up and fixes from Steven Rostedt:
- Have osnoise tracer use memdup_user_nul()
The function osnoise_cpus_write() open codes a kmalloc() and then a
copy_from_user() and then adds a nul byte at the end which is the
same as simply using memdup_user_nul().
- Fix wakeup and irq tracers when failing to acquire calltime
When the wakeup and irq tracers use the function graph tracer for
tracing function times, it saves a timestamp into the fgraph shadow
stack. It is possible that this could fail to be stored. If that
happens, it exits the routine early. These functions also disable
nesting of the operations by incremeting the data "disable" counter.
But if the calltime exits out early, it never increments the counter
back to what it needs to be.
Since there's only a couple of lines of code that does work after
acquiring the calltime, instead of exiting out early, reverse the if
statement to be true if calltime is acquired, and place the code that
is to be done within that if block. The clean up will always be done
after that.
- Fix ring_buffer_map() return value on failure of __rb_map_vma()
If __rb_map_vma() fails in ring_buffer_map(), it does not return an
error. This means the caller will be working against a bad vma
mapping. Have ring_buffer_map() return an error when __rb_map_vma()
fails.
- Fix regression of writing to the trace_marker file
A bug fix was made to change __copy_from_user_inatomic() to
copy_from_user_nofault() in the trace_marker write function. The
trace_marker file is used by applications to write into it (usually
with a file descriptor opened at the start of the program) to record
into the tracing system. It's usually used in critical sections so
the write to trace_marker is highly optimized.
The reason for copying in an atomic section is that the write
reserves space on the ring buffer and then writes directly into it.
After it writes, it commits the event. The time between reserve and
commit must have preemption disabled.
The trace marker write does not have any locking nor can it allocate
due to the nature of it being a critical path.
Unfortunately, converting __copy_from_user_inatomic() to
copy_from_user_nofault() caused a regression in Android. Now all the
writes from its applications trigger the fault that is rejected by
the _nofault() version that wasn't rejected by the _inatomic()
version. Instead of getting data, it now just gets a trace buffer
filled with:
tracing_mark_write: <faulted>
To fix this, on opening of the trace_marker file, allocate per CPU
buffers that can be used by the write call. Then when entering the
write call, do the following:
preempt_disable();
cpu = smp_processor_id();
buffer = per_cpu_ptr(cpu_buffers, cpu);
do {
cnt = nr_context_switches_cpu(cpu);
migrate_disable();
preempt_enable();
ret = copy_from_user(buffer, ptr, size);
preempt_disable();
migrate_enable();
} while (!ret && cnt != nr_context_switches_cpu(cpu));
if (!ret)
ring_buffer_write(buffer);
preempt_enable();
This works similarly to seqcount. As it must enabled preemption to do
a copy_from_user() into a per CPU buffer, if it gets preempted, the
buffer could be corrupted by another task.
To handle this, read the number of context switches of the current
CPU, disable migration, enable preemption, copy the data from user
space, then immediately disable preemption again. If the number of
context switches is the same, the buffer is still valid. Otherwise it
must be assumed that the buffer may have been corrupted and it needs
to try again.
Now the trace_marker write can get the user data even if it has to
fault it in, and still not grab any locks of its own.

It was reported that using __copy_from_user_inatomic() can actually
schedule. Which is bad when preemption is disabled. Even though there's
logic to check in_atomic() is set, but this is a nop when the kernel is
configured with PREEMPT_NONE. This is due to page faulting and the code
could schedule with preemption disabled.
Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250819105152.2766363-1-luogengkun@huaweicloud.com/
The solution was to change the __copy_from_user_inatomic() to
copy_from_user_nofault(). But then it was reported that this caused a
regression in Android. There's several applications writing into
trace_marker() in Android, but now instead of showing the expected data,
it is showing:
tracing_mark_write: <faulted>
After reverting the conversion to copy_from_user_nofault(), Android was
able to get the data again.
Writes to the trace_marker is a way to efficiently and quickly enter data
into the Linux tracing buffer. It takes no locks and was designed to be as
non-intrusive as possible. This means it cannot allocate memory, and must
use pre-allocated data.
A method that is actively being worked on to have faultable system call
tracepoints read user space data is to allocate per CPU buffers, and use
them in the callback. The method uses a technique similar to seqcount.
That is something like this:
preempt_disable();
cpu = smp_processor_id();
buffer = this_cpu_ptr(&pre_allocated_cpu_buffers, cpu);
do {
cnt = nr_context_switches_cpu(cpu);
migrate_disable();
preempt_enable();
ret = copy_from_user(buffer, ptr, size);
preempt_disable();
migrate_enable();
} while (!ret && cnt != nr_context_switches_cpu(cpu));
if (!ret)
ring_buffer_write(buffer);
preempt_enable();
It's a little more involved than that, but the above is the basic logic.
The idea is to acquire the current CPU buffer, disable migration, and then
enable preemption. At this moment, it can safely use copy_from_user().
After reading the data from user space, it disables preemption again. It
then checks to see if there was any new scheduling on this CPU. If there
was, it must assume that the buffer was corrupted by another task. If
there wasn't, then the buffer is still valid as only tasks in preemptable
context can write to this buffer and only those that are running on the
CPU.
By using this method, where trace_marker open allocates the per CPU
buffers, trace_marker writes can access user space and even fault it in,
without having to allocate or take any locks of its own.
