For understanding how the workload maps to memory channels and hardware behavior, it's very important to collect address maps with physical addresses. For example, 3D XPoint access can only be found by filtering the physical address. Add a new sample type for physical address. perf already has a facility to collect data virtual address. This patch introduces a function to convert the virtual address to physical address. The function is quite generic and can be extended to any architecture as long as a virtual address is provided. - For kernel direct mapping addresses, virt_to_phys is used to convert the virtual addresses to physical address. - For user virtual addresses, __get_user_pages_fast is used to walk the pages tables for user physical address. - This does not work for vmalloc addresses right now. These are not resolved, but code to do that could be added. The new sample type requires collecting the virtual address. The virtual address will not be output unless SAMPLE_ADDR is applied. For security, the physical address can only be exposed to root or privileged user.

I just noticed that hw.itrace_started and hw.config are aliased to the same location. Now, the PT driver happens to use both, which works out fine by sheer luck: - STORE(hw.itrace_start) is ordered before STORE(hw.config), in the program order, although there are no compiler barriers to ensure that, - to the perf_log_itrace_start() hw.itrace_start looks set at the same time as when it is intended to be set because both stores happen in the same path, - hw.config is never reset to zero in the PT driver. Now, the use of hw.config by the PT driver makes more sense (it being a HW PMU) than messing around with itrace_started, which is an awkward API to begin with. This patch replaces hw.itrace_started with an attach_state bit and an API call for the PMU drivers to use to communicate the condition.

When running perf on the ftrace:function tracepoint, there is a bug which can be reproduced by: perf record -e ftrace:function -a sleep 20 & perf record -e ftrace:function ls perf script ls 10304 [005] 171.853235: ftrace:function: perf_output_begin ls 10304 [005] 171.853237: ftrace:function: perf_output_begin ls 10304 [005] 171.853239: ftrace:function: task_tgid_nr_ns ls 10304 [005] 171.853240: ftrace:function: task_tgid_nr_ns ls 10304 [005] 171.853242: ftrace:function: __task_pid_nr_ns ls 10304 [005] 171.853244: ftrace:function: __task_pid_nr_ns We can see that all the function traces are doubled. The problem is caused by the inconsistency of the register function perf_ftrace_event_register() with the probe function perf_ftrace_function_call(). The former registers one probe for every perf_event. And the latter handles all perf_events on the current cpu. So when two perf_events on the current cpu, the traces of them will be doubled. So this patch adds an extra parameter "event" for perf_tp_event, only send sample data to this event when it's not NULL.

While examining the kernel source code, I found a dangerous operation that could turn into a double-fetch situation (a race condition bug) where the same userspace memory region are fetched twice into kernel with sanity checks after the first fetch while missing checks after the second fetch. 1. The first fetch happens in line 9573 get_user(size, &uattr->size). 2. Subsequently the 'size' variable undergoes a few sanity checks and transformations (line 9577 to 9584). 3. The second fetch happens in line 9610 copy_from_user(attr, uattr, size) 4. Given that 'uattr' can be fully controlled in userspace, an attacker can race condition to override 'uattr->size' to arbitrary value (say, 0xFFFFFFFF) after the first fetch but before the second fetch. The changed value will be copied to 'attr->size'. 5. There is no further checks on 'attr->size' until the end of this function, and once the function returns, we lose the context to verify that 'attr->size' conforms to the sanity checks performed in step 2 (line 9577 to 9584). 6. My manual analysis shows that 'attr->size' is not used elsewhere later, so, there is no working exploit against it right now. However, this could easily turns to an exploitable one if careless developers start to use 'attr->size' later. To fix this, override 'attr->size' from the second fetch to the one from the first fetch, regardless of what is actually copied in. In this way, it is assured that 'attr->size' is consistent with the checks performed after the first fetch.

Commit 3510ca20 ("Minor page waitqueue cleanups") made the page queue code always add new waiters to the back of the queue, which helps upcoming patches to batch the wakeups for some horrid loads where the wait queues grow to thousands of entries. However, I forgot about the nasrt add_page_wait_queue() special case code that is only used by the cachefiles code. That one still continued to add the new wait queue entries at the beginning of the list. Fix it, because any sane batched wakeup will require that we don't suddenly start getting new entries at the beginning of the list that we already handled in a previous batch. [ The current code always does the whole list while holding the lock, so wait queue ordering doesn't matter for correctness, but even then it's better to add later entries at the end from a fairness standpoint ] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

When !NUMA, cpumask_of_node(@node) equals cpu_online_mask regardless of @node. The assumption seems that if !NUMA, there shouldn't be more than one node and thus reporting cpu_online_mask regardless of @node is correct. However, that assumption was broken years ago to support DISCONTIGMEM and whether a system has multiple nodes or not is separately controlled by NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES. This means that, on a system with !NUMA && NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES, cpumask_of_node() will report cpu_online_mask for all possible nodes, indicating that the CPUs are associated with multiple nodes which is an impossible configuration. This bug has been around forever but doesn't look like it has caused any noticeable symptoms. However, it triggers a WARN recently added to workqueue to verify NUMA affinity configuration. Fix it by reporting empty cpumask on non-zero nodes if !NUMA.

Recent commit a8ec3ee8 "arc: Mask individual IRQ lines during core INTC init" breaks interrupt handling on ARCv2 SMP systems. That commit masked all interrupts at onset, as some controllers on some boards (customer as well as internal), would assert interrutps early before any handlers were installed. For SMP systems, the masking was done at each cpu's core-intc. Later, when the IRQ was actually requested, it was unmasked, but only on the requesting cpu. For "common" interrupts, which were wired up from the 2nd level IDU intc, this was as issue as they needed to be enabled on ALL the cpus (given that IDU IRQs are by default served Round Robin across cpus) So fix that by NOT masking "common" interrupts at core-intc, but instead at the 2nd level IDU intc (latter already being done in idu_of_init()) Fixes: a8ec3ee8 ("arc: Mask individual IRQ lines during core INTC init") Signed-off-by: Alexey Brodkin <abrodkin@synopsys.com> [vgupta: reworked changelog, removed the extraneous idu_irq_mask_raw()] Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Commit 464d6242 ("select: switch compat_{get,put}_fd_set() to compat_{get,put}_bitmap()") changed the calculation on how many bytes need to be zeroed when userspace handed over a NULL pointer for a fdset array in the select syscall. The calculation was changed in compat_get_fd_set() wrongly from memset(fdset, 0, ((nr + 1) & ~1)*sizeof(compat_ulong_t)); to memset(fdset, 0, ALIGN(nr, BITS_PER_LONG)); The ALIGN(nr, BITS_PER_LONG) calculates the number of _bits_ which need to be zeroed in the target fdset array (rounded up to the next full bits for an unsigned long). But the memset() call expects the number of _bytes_ to be zeroed. This leads to clearing more memory than wanted (on the stack area or even at kmalloc()ed memory areas) and to random kernel crashes as we have seen them on the parisc platform. The correct change should have been memset(fdset, 0, (ALIGN(nr, BITS_PER_LONG) / BITS_PER_LONG) * BYTES_PER_LONG); which is the same as can be archieved with a call to zero_fd_set(nr, fdset).

The "lock_page_killable()" function waits for exclusive access to the page lock bit using the WQ_FLAG_EXCLUSIVE bit in the waitqueue entry set. That means that if it gets woken up, other waiters may have been skipped. That, in turn, means that if it sees the page being unlocked, it *must* take that lock and return success, even if a lethal signal is also pending. So instead of checking for lethal signals first, we need to check for them after we've checked the actual bit that we were waiting for. Even if that might then delay the killing of the process. This matches the order of the old "wait_on_bit_lock()" infrastructure that the page locking used to use (and is still used in a few other areas). Note that if we still return an error after having unsuccessfully tried to acquire the page lock, that is ok: that means that some other thread was able to get ahead of us and lock the page, and when that other thread then unlocks the page, the wakeup event will be repeated. So any other pending waiters will now get properly woken up.

Tim Chen and Kan Liang have been battling a customer load that shows extremely long page wakeup lists. The cause seems to be constant NUMA migration of a hot page that is shared across a lot of threads, but the actual root cause for the exact behavior has not been found. Tim has a patch that batches the wait list traversal at wakeup time, so that we at least don't get long uninterruptible cases where we traverse and wake up thousands of processes and get nasty latency spikes. That is likely 4.14 material, but we're still discussing the page waitqueue specific parts of it. In the meantime, I've tried to look at making the page wait queues less expensive, and failing miserably. If you have thousands of threads waiting for the same page, it will be painful. We'll need to try to figure out the NUMA balancing issue some day, in addition to avoiding the excessive spinlock hold times. That said, having tried to rewrite the page wait queues, I can at least fix up some of the braindamage in the current situation. In particular: (a) we don't want to continue walking the page wait list if the bit we're waiting for already got set again (which seems to be one of the patterns of the bad load). That makes no progress and just causes pointless cache pollution chasing the pointers. (b) we don't want to put the non-locking waiters always on the front of the queue, and the locking waiters always on the back. Not only is that unfair, it means that we wake up thousands of reading threads that will just end up being blocked by the writer later anyway. Also add a comment about the layout of 'struct wait_page_key' - there is an external user of it in the cachefiles code that means that it has to match the layout of 'struct wait_bit_key' in the two first members. It so happens to match, because 'struct page *' and 'unsigned long *' end up having the same values simply because the page flags are the first member in struct page.

We have a MAX_LFS_FILESIZE macro that is meant to be filled in by filesystems (and other IO targets) that know they are 64-bit clean and don't have any 32-bit limits in their IO path. It turns out that our 32-bit value for that limit was bogus. On 32-bit, the VM layer is limited by the page cache to only 32-bit index values, but our logic for that was confusing and actually wrong. We used to define that value to (((loff_t)PAGE_SIZE << (BITS_PER_LONG-1))-1) which is actually odd in several ways: it limits the index to 31 bits, and then it limits files so that they can't have data in that last byte of a page that has the highest 31-bit index (ie page index 0x7fffffff). Neither of those limitations make sense. The index is actually the full 32 bit unsigned value, and we can use that whole full page. So the maximum size of the file would logically be "PAGE_SIZE << BITS_PER_LONG". However, we do wan tto avoid the maximum index, because we have code that iterates over the page indexes, and we don't want that code to overflow. So the maximum size of a file on a 32-bit host should actually be one page less than the full 32-bit index. So the actual limit is ULONG_MAX << PAGE_SHIFT. That means that we will not actually be using the page of that last index (ULONG_MAX), but we can grow a file up to that limit. The wrong value of MAX_LFS_FILESIZE actually caused problems for Doug Nazar, who was still using a 32-bit host, but with a 9.7TB 2 x RAID5 volume. It turns out that our old MAX_LFS_FILESIZE was 8TiB (well, one byte less), but the actual true VM limit is one page less than 16TiB. This was invisible until commit c2a9737f ("vfs,mm: fix a dead loop in truncate_inode_pages_range()"), which started applying that MAX_LFS_FILESIZE limit to block devices too. NOTE! On 64-bit, the page index isn't a limiter at all, and the limit is actually just the offset type itself (loff_t), which is signed. But for clarity, on 64-bit, just use the maximum signed value, and don't make people have to count the number of 'f' characters in the hex constant. So just use LLONG_MAX for the 64-bit case. That was what the value had been before too, just written out as a hex constant.

Pull MTD fixes from Brian Norris: "Two fixes - one for a 4.13 regression, and the other for an older one: - Atmel NAND: since we started utilizing ONFI timings, we found that we were being too restrict at rejecting them, partly due to discrepancies in ONFI 4.0 and earlier versions. Relax the restriction to keep these platforms booting. This is a 4.13-rc1 regression. - nandsim: repeated probe/removal may not work after a failed init, because we didn't free up our debugfs files properly on the failure path. This has been around since 3.8, but it's nice to get this fixed now in a nice easy patch that can target -stable, since there's already refactoring work (that also fixes the issue) targeted for the next merge window" * tag 'for-linus-20170825' of git://git.infradead.org/linux-mtd: mtd: nand: atmel: Relax tADL_min constraint mtd: nandsim: remove debugfs entries in error path

Pull block fixes from Jens Axboe: "A small batch of fixes that should be included for the 4.13 release. This contains: - Revert of the 4k loop blocksize support. Even with a recent batch of 4 fixes, we're still not really happy with it. Rather than be stuck with an API issue, let's revert it and get it right for 4.14. - Trivial patch from Bart, adding a few flags to the blk-mq debugfs exports that were added in this release, but not to the debugfs parts. - Regression fix for bsg, fixing a potential kernel panic. From Benjamin. - Tweak for the blk throttling, improving how we account discards. From Shaohua" * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: blk-mq-debugfs: Add names for recently added flags bsg-lib: fix kernel panic resulting from missing allocation of reply-buffer Revert "loop: support 4k physical blocksize" blk-throttle: cap discard request size

irq_create_affinity_masks() can return NULL on non-SMP systems, when there are not enough "free" vectors available to spread, or if memory allocation for the CPU masks fails. Only the allocation failure is of interest, and even then the system will work just fine except for non-optimally spread vectors. Thus remove the warnings.

In recently introduced memblock_discard() there is a reversed logic bug. Memory is freed of static array instead of dynamically allocated one.

Commit 7c051267 ("mm, fork: make dup_mmap wait for mmap_sem for write killable") made it possible to kill a forking task while it is waiting to acquire its ->mmap_sem for write, in dup_mmap(). However, it was overlooked that this introduced an new error path before a reference is taken on the mm_struct's ->exe_file. Since the ->exe_file of the new mm_struct was already set to the old ->exe_file by the memcpy() in dup_mm(), it was possible for the mmput() in the error path of dup_mm() to drop a reference to ->exe_file which was never taken. This caused the struct file to later be freed prematurely. Fix it by updating mm_init() to NULL out the ->exe_file, in the same place it clears other things like the list of mmaps. This bug was found by syzkaller. It can be reproduced using the following C program: #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <pthread.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <sys/mman.h> #include <sys/syscall.h> #include <sys/wait.h> #include <unistd.h> static void *mmap_thread(void *_arg) { for (;;) { mmap(NULL, 0x1000000, PROT_READ, MAP_POPULATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS|MAP_PRIVATE, -1, 0); } } static void *fork_thread(void *_arg) { usleep(rand() % 10000); fork(); } int main(void) { fork(); fork(); fork(); for (;;) { if (fork() == 0) { pthread_t t; pthread_create(&t, NULL, mmap_thread, NULL); pthread_create(&t, NULL, fork_thread, NULL); usleep(rand() % 10000); syscall(__NR_exit_group, 0); } wait(NULL); } } No special kernel config options are needed. It usually causes a NULL pointer dereference in __remove_shared_vm_struct() during exit, or in dup_mmap() (which is usually inlined into copy_process()) during fork. Both are due to a vm_area_struct's ->vm_file being used after it's already been freed.
