stable 6.6: commit "sched/cpufreq: Rework schedutil governor performance estimation' causes a regression

by Sergey Senozhatsky

Hi, We are observing a performance regression on one of our arm64 boards. We tracked it down to the linux-6.6.y commit ada8d7fa0ad4 ("sched/cpufreq: Rework schedutil governor performance estimation"). UI speedometer benchmark: w/commit: 395 +/-38 w/o commit: 439 +/-14

Scenario causing lack of proper cleanup: 1) A netpoll is associated with a NIC (e.g., eth0) and netdev->npinfo is allocated, and refcnt = 1 - Keep in mind that npinfo is shared among all netpoll instances. In this case, there is just one. 2) Another netpoll is also associated with the same NIC and npinfo->refcnt += 1. - Now dev->npinfo->refcnt = 2; - There is just one npinfo associated to the netdev. 3) When the first netpolls goes to clean up: - The first cleanup succeeds and clears np->dev->npinfo, ignoring refcnt. - It basically calls `RCU_INIT_POINTER(np->dev->npinfo, NULL);` - Set dev->npinfo = NULL, without proper cleanup - No ->ndo_netpoll_cleanup() is either called 4) Now the second target tries to clean up - The second cleanup fails because np->dev->npinfo is already NULL. * In this case, ops->ndo_netpoll_cleanup() was never called, and the skb pool is not cleaned as well (for the second netpoll instance) - This leaks npinfo and skbpool skbs, which is clearly reported by kmemleak. Revert commit efa95b01da18 ("netpoll: fix use after free") and adds clarifying comments emphasizing that npinfo cleanup should only happen once the refcount reaches zero, ensuring stable and correct netpoll behavior.

Because of this, the different codec component functionalities, called from snd_soc_resume() to reconfigure various functions, can race with the DA7213 struct dev_pm_ops::resume function, leading to misapplied configuration. This occasionally results in clipped sound. Fix this by dropping the struct dev_pm_ops::{suspend, resume} and use instead struct snd_soc_component_driver::{suspend, resume}. This ensures the proper configuration sequence is handled by the ASoC subsystem.

Scenario causing lack of proper cleanup: 1) A netpoll is associated with a NIC (e.g., eth0) and netdev->npinfo is allocated, and refcnt = 1 - Keep in mind that npinfo is shared among all netpoll instances. In this case, there is just one. 2) Another netpoll is also associated with the same NIC and npinfo->refcnt += 1. - Now dev->npinfo->refcnt = 2; - There is just one npinfo associated to the netdev. 3) When the first netpolls goes to clean up: - The first cleanup succeeds and clears np->dev->npinfo, ignoring refcnt. - It basically calls `RCU_INIT_POINTER(np->dev->npinfo, NULL);` - Set dev->npinfo = NULL, without proper cleanup - No ->ndo_netpoll_cleanup() is either called 4) Now the second target tries to clean up - The second cleanup fails because np->dev->npinfo is already NULL. * In this case, ops->ndo_netpoll_cleanup() was never called, and the skb pool is not cleaned as well (for the second netpoll instance) - This leaks npinfo and skbpool skbs, which is clearly reported by kmemleak. Revert commit efa95b01da18 ("netpoll: fix use after free") and adds clarifying comments emphasizing that npinfo cleanup should only happen once the refcount reaches zero, ensuring stable and correct netpoll behavior.

[PATCH 1/2] drm/xe: Silence allocation warnings for sync arrays

by Shuicheng Lin

args->num_syncs comes from userspace and may be large or fuzzed. When kcalloc() attempts a large allocation, the allocator may emit warning like below, even though the driver already returns -ENOMEM safely. Suppress it by using __GFP_NOWARN when allocating the sync array. " WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1217 at mm/page_alloc.c:5124 __alloc_frozen_pages_noprof+0x2f8/0x2180 mm/page_alloc.c:5124 ...

[for-next][PATCH 04/16] rtla/timerlat_bpf: Stop tracing on user latency

by Steven Rostedt

From: Tomas Glozar <tglozar(a)redhat.com> rtla-timerlat allows a *thread* latency threshold to be set via the -T/--thread option. However, the timerlat tracer calls this *total* latency (stop_tracing_total_us), and stops tracing also when the return-to-user latency is over the threshold. Change the behavior of the timerlat BPF program to reflect what the timerlat tracer is doing, to avoid discrepancy between stopping collecting data in the BPF program and stopping tracing in the timerlat tracer.
