Subject: [PATCH v3 2/5] nohz: support PR_CPU_ISOLATED_STRICT mode
With cpu_isolated mode, the task is in principle guaranteed not to be
interrupted by the kernel, but only if it behaves. In particular, if it
enters the kernel via system call, page fault, or any of a number of other
synchronous traps, it may be unexpectedly exposed to long latencies.
Add a simple flag that puts the process into a state where any such
kernel entry is fatal.
To allow the state to be entered and exited, we add an internal bit to
current->cpu_isolated_flags that is set when prctl() sets the flags.
We check the bit on syscall entry as well as on any exception_enter().
The prctl() syscall is ignored to allow clearing the bit again later,
and exit/exit_group are ignored to allow exiting the task without
a pointless signal killing you as you try to do so.
This change adds the syscall-detection hooks only for x86 and tile;
I am happy to try to add more for additional platforms in the final
version.
The signature of context_tracking_exit() changes to report whether
we, in fact, are exiting back to user space, so that we can track
user exceptions properly separately from other kernel entries.
