None of the calls to trace_array_printk_buf() will do anything
if we don't initialize the buffer on instance creation (unless
some other tracer called it), so do that.
Add an osnoise_print() function to facilitate adding debug prints
(without tainting).
Use trace_array_printk() instead of trace_array_printk_buf(), as we're
only writing to the main buffer (of a non-main instance) anyway -- and
trace_array_printk_buf() skips the check to make sure we're not printing
to the global instance.

update_tg_load_avg() is called once per leaf cfs_rq from the
__update_blocked_fair() walk that runs inside the NOHZ idle-balance
softirq, and again from update_load_avg() with UPDATE_TG. Its first
operation after the trivial early-outs is unconditionally:
now = sched_clock_cpu(cpu_of(rq_of(cfs_rq)));
if (now - cfs_rq->last_update_tg_load_avg < NSEC_PER_MSEC)
return;
Jakub ran into a system where nohz_idle_balance() was taking 75%
of a CPU (which is handling network traffic and doing many irq_exit_cpu
calls), with 35% of that CPU spent in update_load_avg, and 17% of the
CPU in sched_clock_cpu(), reading the TSC.
In a quick synthetic test, it looks like this patch reduces the
CPU use of sched_balance_update_blocked_averages by about 20%.
Switch the rate-limit to read rq_clock(rq_of(cfs_rq)) instead.
This eliminates the rdtsc, and uses a fairly fresh timestamp,
because all callers of update_tg_load_avg() and clear_tg_load_avg()
hold rq->lock and have called update_rq_clock(rq) within microseconds:
caller pre-state
__update_blocked_fair encloser did update_rq_clock(rq)
update_load_avg's three UPDATE_TG sites under rq->lock after enqueue/dequeue/update_curr
attach_/detach_entity_cfs_rq preceded by update_load_avg(...)
clear_tg_load_avg via offline path rq_clock_start_loop_update(rq) upfront
so rq->clock is fresh at every call. Since cfs_rqs are per-CPU
per-task_group, cfs_rq->last_update_tg_load_avg is always compared
against the same rq's clock; no cross-rq drift.

Commit cd959a3562 ("sched_ext: Add a DL server for sched_ext tasks")
introduced an ext_server deadline server to protect sched_ext tasks from
fair/RT starvation, mirroring the existing fair_server.
Currently, both servers reserve their 50ms/1000ms bandwidth at boot,
regardless of whether a BPF scheduler is loaded. Unused bandwidth is
still reclaimed at runtime by other classes, but the static reservation
prevents the RT class from implicitly using that headroom when one of
the two classes is guaranteed to be empty.
A sysadmin can work around this by writing
/sys/kernel/debug/sched/{fair,ext}_server/cpu*/runtime, but that
requires manual action and not all systems expose debugfs.
A better approach is to make server bandwidth reservations dynamic: only
the scheduling policy that is currently active should register its
reservation, while the inactive one should not artificially hold
capacity (keeping both reservations only when the BPF scheduler is
running in partial mode):
+---------------------------------------------+-------------+------------+
| BPF scheduler state | fair server | ext server |
+---------------------------------------------+-------------+------------+
| not loaded (default boot) | reserved | none |
| loaded full mode (!SCX_OPS_SWITCH_PARTIAL) | none | reserved |
| loaded partial mode (SCX_OPS_SWITCH_PARTIAL)| reserved | reserved |
+---------------------------------------------+-------------+------------+
To achieve this, introduce an "attached/detached" state for each
deadline server, so the kernel can decide whether a server's bandwidth
should be accounted in global bandwidth tracking.
At boot, the system starts with only the fair server contributing to
bandwidth accounting. When a BPF scheduler is enabled, the ext server is
attached and may replace or complement the fair server depending on
whether full or partial mode is used. When sched_ext is disabled, the
system restores the previous deadline bandwidth values and behavior.
The transition logic ensures that switching between scheduling modes is
consistent and reversible, without losing runtime configuration or
requiring manual intervention.

When sibling CPU exclusion occurs, a partition's user_xcpus may contain
CPUs that were never actually granted to it. These CPUs are present in
user_xcpus(cs) but not in cs->effective_xcpus.
The partcmd_update path in update_parent_effective_cpumask() uses
user_xcpus(cs) (via the local variable xcpus) to compute the addmask
(CPUs to return to parent) and delmask (CPUs to request from parent).
This is incorrect:
1) When newmask removes a CPU that was previously excluded by a
sibling, addmask incorrectly includes that CPU and tries to return
it to the parent even though the partition never actually owned it,
causing CPU overlap with sibling partitions and triggering warnings
in generate_sched_domains().
2) When newmask adds a previously excluded CPU that is now available,
delmask fails to request it from the parent because user_xcpus(cs)
already includes it.
Fix this by using cs->effective_xcpus instead of user_xcpus(cs) in all
partcmd_update paths that calculate addmask or delmask, including the
PERR_NOCPUS error handling paths.
Reproducers:
Example 1 - Removing a sibling-excluded CPU incorrectly returns it:
# cd /sys/fs/cgroup
# echo "0-1" > a1/cpuset.cpus
# echo "root" > a1/cpuset.cpus.partition
# echo "0-2" > b1/cpuset.cpus
# echo "root" > b1/cpuset.cpus.partition
# echo "2" > b1/cpuset.cpus
# cat cpuset.cpus.effective
# Actual: 0-1,3 Expected: 3
Example 2 - Expanding to a previously excluded CPU fails to request it:
# cd /sys/fs/cgroup
# echo "0-1" > a1/cpuset.cpus
# echo "root" > a1/cpuset.cpus.partition
# echo "0-2" > b1/cpuset.cpus
# echo "root" > b1/cpuset.cpus.partition
# echo "member" > a1/cpuset.cpus.partition
# echo "1-2" > b1/cpuset.cpus

Reading /proc/interrupts iterates over the interrupt number space one by
one and looks up the descriptors one by one. That's just a waste of time.
When CONFIG_GENERIC_IRQ_SHOW is enabled this can utilize the maple tree and
cache the descriptor pointer efficiently for the sequence file operations.
Implement a CONFIG_GENERIC_IRQ_SHOW specific version in the core code and
leave the fs/proc/ variant for the legacy architectures which ignore generic
code.
This reduces the time wasted for looking up the next record significantly.

Quite some architectures have four character wide acronyms for architecture

The default precision of printing the Linux device interrupt numbers is
three, which causes quite some code to play games with adding or omitting

properly aligned.
Increase the default number precision to four in the core code and get rid
of the space games all over the place. At the same time align all

Notably, put_prev_set_next_task() is the only site that:

Commit c9d93a73ce ("sched/fair: Drop redundant RCU read lock in NOHZ
kick path") removed the rcu_read_lock()/unlock() pair from
set_cpu_sd_state_busy() and set_cpu_sd_state_idle() on the assumption
that all callers run in a safe context for rcu_dereference_all(): IRQs
disabled or cpus_write_lock() held.
That assumption is wrong for the CPU hotplug teardown path. When CPUs
are taken offline, set_cpu_sd_state_busy() is invoked via:
cpuhp/N kthread
cpuhp_thread_fun()
cpuhp_invoke_callback()
sched_cpu_deactivate()
nohz_balance_exit_idle()
set_cpu_sd_state_busy()
rcu_dereference_all(per_cpu(sd_llc, cpu))
The cpuhp kthread holds cpu_hotplug_lock (percpu-rwsem) but runs with
preemption and IRQs enabled. As a result, lockdep correctly reports a
suspicious RCU usage on CPU offline, e.g.:
# echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online

The dumpable flag captured at execve() is consulted by
__ptrace_may_access() and several /proc owner / visibility checks.
It lives on mm_struct today, which exit_mm() clears from the task
long before the task itself is reaped.
exec_state is anchored to the execve() that established the current
privilege domain. CLONE_VM siblings refcount-share the parent's
exec_state via copy_exec_state(); non-CLONE_VM clones allocate a
fresh exec_state inheriting the parent's dumpable mode and user_ns
reference via task_exec_state_copy(). execve() allocates a fresh
instance (via alloc_task_exec_state() in begin_new_exec()) and
installs it under task_lock + exec_update_lock with
task_exec_state_replace(). init_task uses a static instance.
The dumpable mode now lives on task->exec_state->dumpable.
task->mm->flags no longer carries dumpability; MMF_DUMPABLE_MASK is
removed, but MMF_DUMPABLE_BITS is reserved so MMF_DUMP_FILTER_* bit
positions remain stable for the /proc/<pid>/coredump_filter ABI. The
task->user_dumpable cache bit and its assignment in exit_mm() are
removed; readers go through get_dumpable(task) directly.
coredump_params gains a snapshot field cprm.dumpable, populated from
get_dumpable(current) at vfs_coredump() entry, replacing the previous
__get_dumpable(cprm->mm_flags) consumers in fs/coredump.c and
fs/pidfs.c.
The user namespace recorded at execve() is consulted by
__ptrace_may_access() and by /proc/PID/* owner derivation. Move the
captured user_ns onto task_exec_state, which stays attached to the task
past exit_mm() and across exit_files().
bprm grows a user_ns field staged in bprm_mm_init() with the caller's
user_ns, narrowed by would_dump() to the closest privileged ancestor,
and consumed by exec_mmap() via alloc_task_exec_state(bprm->user_ns).
free_bprm() releases the staging reference.
mm_struct loses ->user_ns entirely. Initializers in init-mm, efi_mm,
and the implicit one in mm_init()/dup_mm()/mm_alloc() are removed;
__mmdrop() drops the matching put_user_ns(). The kthread_use_mm()
WARN_ON_ONCE(!mm->user_ns) is no longer meaningful and goes too.
