      mmap: relax file size limit for regular files · 423913ad
      Linus Torvalds authored
      Commit be83bbf8 ("mmap: introduce sane default mmap limits") was
      introduced to catch problems in various ad-hoc character device drivers
      doing mmap and getting the size limits wrong.  In the process, it used
      "known good" limits for the normal cases of mapping regular files and
      block device drivers.
      
      It turns out that the "s_maxbytes" limit was less "known good" than I
      thought.  In particular, /proc doesn't set it, but exposes one regular
      file to mmap: /proc/vmcore.  As a result, that file got limited to the
      default MAX_INT s_maxbytes value.
      
      This went unnoticed for a while, because apparently the only thing that
      needs it is the s390 kernel zfcpdump, but there might be other tools
      that use this too.
      
      Vasily suggested just changing s_maxbytes for all of /proc, which isn't
      wrong, but makes me nervous at this stage.  So instead, just make the
      new mmap limit always be MAX_LFS_FILESIZE for regular files, which won't
      affect anything else.  It wasn't the regular file case I was worried
      about.
      
      I'd really prefer for maxsize to have been per-inode, but that is not
      how things are today.

      hfsplus: stop workqueue when fill_super() failed · 66072c29
      Tetsuo Handa authored
      syzbot is reporting ODEBUG messages at hfsplus_fill_super() [1].  This
      is because hfsplus_fill_super() forgot to call cancel_delayed_work_sync().
      
      As far as I can see, it is hfsplus_mark_mdb_dirty() from
      hfsplus_new_inode() in hfsplus_fill_super() that calls
      queue_delayed_work().  Therefore, I assume that hfsplus_new_inode() does
      not fail if queue_delayed_work() was called, and the out_put_hidden_dir
      label is the appropriate location to call cancel_delayed_work_sync().

      mm: don't allow deferred pages with NEED_PER_CPU_KM · ab1e8d89
      Pavel Tatashin authored
      It is unsafe to do virtual to physical translations before mm_init() is
      called if struct page is needed in order to determine the memory section
      number (see SECTION_IN_PAGE_FLAGS).  This is because only in mm_init()
      we initialize struct pages for all the allocated memory when deferred
      struct pages are used.
      
      My recent fix in commit c9e97a19 ("mm: initialize pages on demand
      during boot") exposed this problem, because it greatly reduced number of
      pages that are initialized before mm_init(), but the problem existed
      even before my fix, as Fengguang Wu found.
      
      Below is a more detailed explanation of the problem.
      
      We initialize struct pages in four places:
      
      1. Early in boot a small set of struct pages is initialized to fill the
         first section, and lower zones.
      
      2. During mm_init() we initialize "struct pages" for all the memory that
         is allocated, i.e reserved in memblock.
      
      3. Using on-demand logic when pages are allocated after mm_init call
         (when memblock is finished)
      
      4. After smp_init() when the rest free deferred pages are initialized.
      
      The problem occurs if we try to do va to phys translation of a memory
      between steps 1 and 2.  Because we have not yet initialized struct pages
      for all the reserved pages, it is inherently unsafe to do va to phys if
      the translation itself requires access of "struct page" as in case of
      this combination: CONFIG_SPARSE && !CONFIG_SPARSE_VMEMMAP
      
      The following path exposes the problem:
      
        start_kernel()
         trap_init()
          setup_cpu_entry_areas()
           setup_cpu_entry_area(cpu)
            get_cpu_gdt_paddr(cpu)
             per_cpu_ptr_to_phys(addr)
              pcpu_addr_to_page(addr)
               virt_to_page(addr)
                pfn_to_page(__pa(addr) >> PAGE_SHIFT)
      
      We disable this path by not allowing NEED_PER_CPU_KM with deferred
      struct pages feature.
      
      The problems are discussed in these threads:

      radix tree: fix multi-order iteration race · 9f418224
      Ross Zwisler authored
      Fix a race in the multi-order iteration code which causes the kernel to
      hit a GP fault.  This was first seen with a production v4.15 based
      kernel (4.15.6-300.fc27.x86_64) utilizing a DAX workload which used
      order 9 PMD DAX entries.
      
      The race has to do with how we tear down multi-order sibling entries
      when we are removing an item from the tree.  Remember for example that
      an order 2 entry looks like this:
      
        struct radix_tree_node.slots[] = [entry][sibling][sibling][sibling]
      
      where 'entry' is in some slot in the struct radix_tree_node, and the
      three slots following 'entry' contain sibling pointers which point back
      to 'entry.'
      
      When we delete 'entry' from the tree, we call :
      
        radix_tree_delete()
          radix_tree_delete_item()
            __radix_tree_delete()
              replace_slot()
      
      replace_slot() first removes the siblings in order from the first to the
      last, then at then replaces 'entry' with NULL.  This means that for a
      brief period of time we end up with one or more of the siblings removed,
      so:
      
        struct radix_tree_node.slots[] = [entry][NULL][sibling][sibling]
      
      This causes an issue if you have a reader iterating over the slots in
      the tree via radix_tree_for_each_slot() while only under
      rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock() protection.  This is a common case in
      mm/filemap.c.
      
      The issue is that when __radix_tree_next_slot() => skip_siblings() tries
      to skip over the sibling entries in the slots, it currently does so with
      an exact match on the slot directly preceding our current slot.
      Normally this works:
      
                                            V preceding slot
        struct radix_tree_node.slots[] = [entry][sibling][sibling][sibling]
                                                    ^ current slot
      
      This lets you find the first sibling, and you skip them all in order.
      
      But in the case where one of the siblings is NULL, that slot is skipped
      and then our sibling detection is interrupted:
      
                                                   V preceding slot
        struct radix_tree_node.slots[] = [entry][NULL][sibling][sibling]
                                                          ^ current slot
      
      This means that the sibling pointers aren't recognized since they point
      all the way back to 'entry', so we think that they are normal internal
      radix tree pointers.  This causes us to think we need to walk down to a
      struct radix_tree_node starting at the address of 'entry'.
      
      In a real running kernel this will crash the thread with a GP fault when
      you try and dereference the slots in your broken node starting at
      'entry'.
      
      We fix this race by fixing the way that skip_siblings() detects sibling
      nodes.  Instead of testing against the preceding slot we instead look
      for siblings via is_sibling_entry() which compares against the position
      of the struct radix_tree_node.slots[] array.  This ensures that sibling
      entries are properly identified, even if they are no longer contiguous
      with the 'entry' they point to.

      Add a test which shows a race in the multi-order iteration code.  This

      radix tree test suite: add item_delete_rcu() · 3e252fa7
      Ross Zwisler authored
      Currently the lifetime of "struct item" entries in the radix tree are
      not controlled by RCU, but are instead deleted inline as they are
      removed from the tree.
      
      In the following patches we add a test which has threads iterating over
      items pulled from the tree and verifying them in an
      rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock() section.  This means that though an
      item has been removed from the tree it could still be being worked on by
      other threads until the RCU grace period expires.  So, we need to
      actually free the "struct item" structures at the end of the grace
      period, just as we do with "struct radix_tree_node" items.

      radix tree test suite: fix mapshift build target · 8d9fa88e
      Ross Zwisler authored
      Commit c6ce3e2f ("radix tree test suite: Add config option for map
      shift") introduced a phony makefile target called 'mapshift' that ends
      up generating the file generated/map-shift.h.  This phony target was
      then added as a dependency of the top level 'targets' build target,
      which is what is run when you go to tools/testing/radix-tree and just
      type 'make'.
      
      Unfortunately, this phony target doesn't actually work as a dependency,
      so you end up getting:
      
        $ make
        make: *** No rule to make target 'generated/map-shift.h', needed by 'main.o'.  Stop.
        make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
      
      Fix this by making the file generated/map-shift.h our real makefile
      target, and add this a dependency of the top level build target.

      include/linux/mm.h: add new inline function vmf_error() · d97baf94
      Souptick Joarder authored
      Many places in drivers/ file systems, error was handled in a common way
      like below:
      
      	ret = (ret == -ENOMEM) ? VM_FAULT_OOM : VM_FAULT_SIGBUS;
      
      vmf_error() will replace this and return vm_fault_t type err.
      
      A lot of drivers and filesystems currently have a rather complex mapping
      of errno-to-VM_FAULT code.  We have been able to eliminate a lot of it
      by just returning VM_FAULT codes directly from functions which are
      called exclusively from the fault handling path.
      
      Some functions can be called both from the fault handler and other
      context which are expecting an errno, so they have to continue to return
      an errno.  Some users still need to choose different behaviour for
      different errnos, but vmf_error() captures the essential error
      translation that's common to all users, and those that need to handle
      additional errors can handle them first.

      I had neglected to increment the error counter when the tests failed,
      which made the tests noisy when they fail, but not actually return an

      Merge tag 'trace-v4.17-rc4-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace · e6506eb2
      Linus Torvalds authored
      Pull tracing fix from Steven Rostedt:
       "Some of the ftrace internal events use a zero for a data size of a
        field event. This is increasingly important for the histogram trigger
        work that is being extended.
      
        While auditing trace events, I found that a couple of the xen events
        were used as just marking that a function was called, by creating a
        static array of size zero. This can play havoc with the tracing
        features if these events are used, because a zero size of a static
        array is denoted as a special nul terminated dynamic array (this is
        what the trace_marker code uses). But since the xen events have no
        size, they are not nul terminated, and unexpected results may occur.
      
        As trace events were never intended on being a marker to denote that a
        function was hit or not, especially since function tracing and kprobes
        can trivially do the same, the best course of action is to simply
        remove these events"
