KMSAN doesn't know about DMA memory writes performed by devices. We unpoison such memory when it's mapped to avoid false positive reports. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220915150417.722975-22-glider@google.comSigned-off-by:

kmsan_init_shadow() scans the mappings created at boot time and creates metadata pages for those mappings. When the memblock allocator returns pages to pagealloc, we reserve 2/3 of those pages and use them as metadata for the remaining 1/3. Once KMSAN starts, every page allocated by pagealloc has its associated shadow and origin pages. kmsan_initialize() initializes the bookkeeping for init_task and enables KMSAN.

In order to report uninitialized memory coming from heap allocations KMSAN has to poison them unless they're created with __GFP_ZERO. It's handy that we need KMSAN hooks in the places where init_on_alloc/init_on_free initialization is performed. In addition, we apply __no_kmsan_checks to get_freepointer_safe() to suppress reports when accessing freelist pointers that reside in freed objects.

For each memory location KernelMemorySanitizer maintains two types of metadata: 1. The so-called shadow of that location - а byte:byte mapping describing whether or not individual bits of memory are initialized (shadow is 0) or not (shadow is 1). 2. The origins of that location - а 4-byte:4-byte mapping containing 4-byte IDs of the stack traces where uninitialized values were created. Each struct page now contains pointers to two struct pages holding KMSAN metadata (shadow and origins) for the original struct page. Utility routines in mm/kmsan/core.c and mm/kmsan/shadow.c handle the metadata creation, addressing, copying and checking. mm/kmsan/report.c performs error reporting in the cases an uninitialized value is used in a way that leads to undefined behavior. KMSAN compiler instrumentation is responsible for tracking the metadata along with the kernel memory. mm/kmsan/instrumentation.c provides the implementation for instrumentation hooks that are called from files compiled with -fsanitize=kernel-memory. To aid parameter passing (also done at instrumentation level), each task_struct now contains a struct kmsan_task_state used to track the metadata of function parameters and return values for that task. Finally, this patch provides CONFIG_KMSAN that enables KMSAN, and declares CFLAGS_KMSAN, which are applied to files compiled with KMSAN. The KMSAN_SANITIZE:=n Makefile directive can be used to completely disable KMSAN instrumentation for certain files. Similarly, KMSAN_ENABLE_CHECKS:=n disables KMSAN checks and makes newly created stack memory initialized. Users can also use functions from include/linux/kmsan-checks.h to mark certain memory regions as uninitialized or initialized (this is called "poisoning" and "unpoisoning") or check that a particular region is initialized.

KMSAN adds extra metadata fields to struct page, so it does not fit into 64 bytes anymore.

__no_sanitize_memory is a function attribute that instructs KMSAN to skip a function during instrumentation. This is needed to e.g. implement the noinstr functions. __no_kmsan_checks is a function attribute that makes KMSAN ignore the uninitialized values coming from the function's inputs, and initialize the function's outputs. Functions marked with this attribute can't be inlined into functions not marked with it, and vice versa. This behavior is overridden by __always_inline. __SANITIZE_MEMORY__ is a macro that's defined iff the file is instrumented with KMSAN. This is not the same as CONFIG_KMSAN, which is defined for every file. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220915150417.722975-8-glider@google.comSigned-off-by:

Some users (currently only KMSAN) may want to use spare bits in depot_stack_handle_t. Let them do so by adding @extra_bits to __stack_depot_save() to store arbitrary flags, and providing stack_depot_get_extra_bits() to retrieve those flags. Also adapt KASAN to the new prototype by passing extra_bits=0, as KASAN does not intend to store additional information in the stack handle.

Patch series "Add KernelMemorySanitizer infrastructure", v7. KernelMemorySanitizer (KMSAN) is a detector of errors related to uses of uninitialized memory. It relies on compile-time Clang instrumentation (similar to MSan in the userspace [1]) and tracks the state of every bit of kernel memory, being able to report an error if uninitialized value is used in a condition, dereferenced, or escapes to userspace, USB or DMA. KMSAN has reported more than 300 bugs in the past few years (recently fixed bugs: [2]), most of them with the help of syzkaller. Such bugs keep getting introduced into the kernel despite new compiler warnings and other analyses (the 6.0 cycle already resulted in several KMSAN-reported bugs, e.g. [3]). Mitigations like total stack and heap initialization are unfortunately very far from being deployable. The proposed patchset contains KMSAN runtime implementation together with small changes to other subsystems needed to make KMSAN work. The latter changes fall into several categories: 1. Changes and refactorings of existing code required to add KMSAN: - [01/43] x86: add missing include to sparsemem.h - [02/43] stackdepot: reserve 5 extra bits in depot_stack_handle_t - [03/43] instrumented.h: allow instrumenting both sides of copy_from_user() - [04/43] x86: asm: instrument usercopy in get_user() and __put_user_size() - [05/43] asm-generic: instrument usercopy in cacheflush.h - [10/43] libnvdimm/pfn_dev: increase MAX_STRUCT_PAGE_SIZE 2. KMSAN-related declarations in generic code, KMSAN runtime library, docs and configs: - [06/43] kmsan: add ReST documentation - [07/43] kmsan: introduce __no_sanitize_memory and __no_kmsan_checks - [09/43] x86: kmsan: pgtable: reduce vmalloc space - [11/43] kmsan: add KMSAN runtime core - [13/43] MAINTAINERS: add entry for KMSAN - [24/43] kmsan: add tests for KMSAN - [31/43] objtool: kmsan: list KMSAN API functions as uaccess-safe - [35/43] x86: kmsan: use __msan_ string functions where possible - [43/43] x86: kmsan: enable KMSAN builds for x86 3. Adding hooks from different subsystems to notify KMSAN about memory state changes: - [14/43] mm: kmsan: maintain KMSAN metadata for page - [15/43] mm: kmsan: call KMSAN hooks from SLUB code - [16/43] kmsan: handle task creation and exiting - [17/43] init: kmsan: call KMSAN initialization routines - [18/43] instrumented.h: add KMSAN support - [19/43] kmsan: add iomap support - [20/43] Input: libps2: mark data received in __ps2_command() as initialized - [21/43] dma: kmsan: unpoison DMA mappings - [34/43] x86: kmsan: handle open-coded assembly in lib/iomem.c - [36/43] x86: kmsan: sync metadata pages on page fault 4. Changes that prevent false reports by explicitly initializing memory, disabling optimized code that may trick KMSAN, selectively skipping instrumentation: - [08/43] kmsan: mark noinstr as __no_sanitize_memory - [12/43] kmsan: disable instrumentation of unsupported common kernel code - [22/43] virtio: kmsan: check/unpoison scatterlist in vring_map_one_sg() - [23/43] kmsan: handle memory sent to/from USB - [25/43] kmsan: disable strscpy() optimization under KMSAN - [26/43] crypto: kmsan: disable accelerated configs under KMSAN - [27/43] kmsan: disable physical page merging in biovec - [28/43] block: kmsan: skip bio block merging logic for KMSAN - [29/43] kcov: kmsan: unpoison area->list in kcov_remote_area_put() - [30/43] security: kmsan: fix interoperability with auto-initialization - [32/43] x86: kmsan: disable instrumentation of unsupported code - [33/43] x86: kmsan: skip shadow checks in __switch_to() - [37/43] x86: kasan: kmsan: support CONFIG_GENERIC_CSUM on x86, enable it for KASAN/KMSAN - [38/43] x86: fs: kmsan: disable CONFIG_DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS - [39/43] x86: kmsan: don't instrument stack walking functions - [40/43] entry: kmsan: introduce kmsan_unpoison_entry_regs() 5. Fixes for bugs detected with CONFIG_KMSAN_CHECK_PARAM_RETVAL: - [41/43] bpf: kmsan: initialize BPF registers with zeroes - [42/43] mm: fs: initialize fsdata passed to write_begin/write_end interface This patchset allows one to boot and run a defconfig+KMSAN kernel on a QEMU without known false positives. It however doesn't guarantee there are no false positives in drivers of certain devices or less tested subsystems, although KMSAN is actively tested on syzbot with a large config. By default, KMSAN enforces conservative checks of most kernel function parameters passed by value (via CONFIG_KMSAN_CHECK_PARAM_RETVAL, which maps to the -fsanitize-memory-param-retval compiler flag). As discussed in [4] and [5], passing uninitialized values as function parameters is considered undefined behavior, therefore KMSAN now reports such cases as errors. Several newly added patches fix known manifestations of these errors. This patch (of 43): Including sparsemem.h from other files (e.g. transitively via asm/pgtable_64_types.h) results in compilation errors due to unknown types: sparsemem.h:34:32: error: unknown type name 'phys_addr_t' extern int phys_to_target_node(phys_addr_t start); ^ sparsemem.h:36:39: error: unknown type name 'u64' extern int memory_add_physaddr_to_nid(u64 start); ^ Fix these errors by including linux/types.h from sparsemem.h This is required for the upcoming KMSAN patches.

With the new hugetlb vma lock in place, it can also be used to handle page fault races with file truncation. The lock is taken at the beginning of the code fault path in read mode. During truncation, it is taken in write mode for each vma which has the file mapped. The file's size (i_size) is modified before taking the vma lock to unmap. How are races handled? The page fault code checks i_size early in processing after taking the vma lock. If the fault is beyond i_size, the fault is aborted. If the fault is not beyond i_size the fault will continue and a new page will be added to the file. It could be that truncation code modifies i_size after the check in fault code. That is OK, as truncation code will soon remove the page. The truncation code will wait until the fault is finished, as it must obtain the vma lock in write mode. This patch cleans up/removes late checks in the fault paths that try to back out pages racing with truncation. As noted above, we just let the truncation code remove the pages.

The new hugetlb vma lock is used to address this race: Faulting thread Unsharing thread ... ... ptep = huge_pte_offset() or ptep = huge_pte_alloc() ... i_mmap_lock_write lock page table ptep invalid <------------------------ huge_pmd_unshare() Could be in a previously unlock_page_table sharing process or worse i_mmap_unlock_write ... The vma_lock is used as follows: - During fault processing. The lock is acquired in read mode before doing a page table lock and allocation (huge_pte_alloc). The lock is held until code is finished with the page table entry (ptep). - The lock must be held in write mode whenever huge_pmd_unshare is called. Lock ordering issues come into play when unmapping a page from all vmas mapping the page. The i_mmap_rwsem must be held to search for the vmas, and the vma lock must be held before calling unmap which will call huge_pmd_unshare. This is done today in: - try_to_migrate_one and try_to_unmap_ for page migration and memory error handling. In these routines we 'try' to obtain the vma lock and fail to unmap if unsuccessful. Calling routines already deal with the failure of unmapping. - hugetlb_vmdelete_list for truncation and hole punch. This routine also tries to acquire the vma lock. If it fails, it skips the unmapping. However, we can not have file truncation or hole punch fail because of contention. After hugetlb_vmdelete_list, truncation and hole punch call remove_inode_hugepages. remove_inode_hugepages checks for mapped pages and call hugetlb_unmap_file_page to unmap them. hugetlb_unmap_file_page is designed to drop locks and reacquire in the correct order to guarantee unmap success.

Allocate a new hugetlb_vma_lock structure and hang off vm_private_data for synchronization use by vmas that could be involved in pmd sharing. This data structure contains a rw semaphore that is the primary tool used for synchronization. This new structure is ref counted, so that it can exist when NOT attached to a vma. This is only helpful in resolving lock ordering issues where code may need to obtain the vma_lock while there are no guarantees the vma may go away. By obtaining a ref on the structure, it can be guaranteed that at least the rw semaphore will not go away. Only add infrastructure for the new lock here. Actual use will be added in subsequent patches.

Commit c0d0381a ("hugetlbfs: use i_mmap_rwsem for more pmd sharing synchronization") added code to take i_mmap_rwsem in read mode for the duration of fault processing. However, this has been shown to cause performance/scaling issues. Revert the code and go back to only taking the semaphore in huge_pmd_share during the fault path. Keep the code that takes i_mmap_rwsem in write mode before calling try_to_unmap as this is required if huge_pmd_unshare is called. NOTE: Reverting this code does expose the following race condition. Faulting thread Unsharing thread ... ... ptep = huge_pte_offset() or ptep = huge_pte_alloc() ... i_mmap_lock_write lock page table ptep invalid <------------------------ huge_pmd_unshare() Could be in a previously unlock_page_table sharing process or worse i_mmap_unlock_write ... ptl = huge_pte_lock(ptep) get/update pte set_pte_at(pte, ptep) It is unknown if the above race was ever experienced by a user. It was discovered via code inspection when initially addressed. In subsequent patches, a new synchronization mechanism will be added to coordinate pmd sharing and eliminate this race.

This is not the first such report, as regressions were also noted when commit c0d0381a ("hugetlbfs: use i_mmap_rwsem for more pmd sharing synchronization") was added [2] in v5.7. At that time, a proposal to address the regression was suggested [3] but went nowhere. The regression and benefit of this patch series is not evident when using the vm_scalability benchmark reported in [2] on a recent kernel. Results from running, "./usemem -n 48 --prealloc --prefault -O -U 3448054972" 48 sample Avg next-20220913 next-20220913 next-20220913 unmodified revert i_mmap_sema locking vma sema locking, this series ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 498150 KB/s 501934 KB/s 504793 KB/s The recent regression report [1] notes page fault and fork latency of shared hugetlb mappings. To measure this, I created two simple programs: 1) map a shared hugetlb area, write fault all pages, unmap area Do this in a continuous loop to measure faults per second 2) map a shared hugetlb area, write fault a few pages, fork and exit Do this in a continuous loop to measure forks per second These programs were run on a 48 CPU VM with 320GB memory. The shared mapping size was 250GB. For comparison, a single instance of the program was run. Then, multiple instances were run in parallel to introduce lock contention. Changing the locking scheme results in a significant performance benefit. test instances unmodified revert vma -------------------------------------------------------------------------- faults per sec 1 393043 395680 389932 faults per sec 24 71405 81191 79048 forks per sec 1 2802 2747 2725 forks per sec 24 439 536 500 Combined faults 24 1621 68070 53662 Combined forks 24 358 67 142 Combined test is when running both faulting program and forking program simultaneously. Patches 1 and 2 of this series revert c0d0381a and 87bf91d3 which depends on c0d0381a. Acquisition of i_mmap_rwsem is still required in the fault path to establish pmd sharing, so this is moved back to huge_pmd_share. With c0d0381a reverted, this race is exposed: Faulting thread Unsharing thread ... ... ptep = huge_pte_offset() or ptep = huge_pte_alloc() ... i_mmap_lock_write lock page table ptep invalid <------------------------ huge_pmd_unshare() Could be in a previously unlock_page_table sharing process or worse i_mmap_unlock_write ... ptl = huge_pte_lock(ptep) get/update pte set_pte_at(pte, ptep) Reverting 87bf91d3 exposes races in page fault/file truncation. When the new vma lock is put to use in patch 8, this will handle the fault/file truncation races. This is explained in patch 9 where code associated with these races is cleaned up. Patches 3 - 5 restructure existing code in preparation for using the new vma lock (rw semaphore) for pmd sharing synchronization. The idea is that this semaphore will be held in read mode for the duration of fault processing, and held in write mode for unmap operations which may call huge_pmd_unshare. Acquiring i_mmap_rwsem is also still required to synchronize huge pmd sharing. However it is only required in the fault path when setting up sharing, and will be acquired in huge_pmd_share(). Patch 6 adds the new vma lock and all supporting routines, but does not actually change code to use the new lock. Patch 7 refactors code in preparation for using the new lock. And, patch 8 finally adds code to make use of this new vma lock. Unfortunately, the fault code and truncate/hole punch code would naturally take locks in the opposite order which could lead to deadlock. Since the performance of page faults is more important, the truncation/hole punch code is modified to back out and take locks in the correct order if necessary.

The use of i_mmap_rwsem to prevent fault/truncate races depends on this. However, this has been shown to cause performance/scaling issues. As a result, that code will be reverted. Since the use i_mmap_rwsem to address page fault/truncate races depends on this, it must also be reverted. In a subsequent patch, code will be added to detect the fault/truncate race and back out operations as required.

The memory-notify-based approach aims to handle meory-less nodes, however, it just adds the complexity of code as pointed by David in thread [1]. The handling of memory-less nodes is introduced by commit 4faf8d95 ("hugetlb: handle memory hot-plug events"). >From its commit message, we cannot find any necessity of handling this case. So, we can simply register/unregister sysfs entries in register_node/unregister_node to simlify the code. BTW, hotplug callback added because in hugetlb_register_all_nodes() we register sysfs nodes only for N_MEMORY nodes, seeing commit 9b5e5d0f, which said it was a preparation for handling memory-less nodes via memory hotplug. Since we want to remove memory hotplug, so make sure we only register per-node sysfs for online (N_ONLINE) nodes in hugetlb_register_all_nodes(). https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/60933ffc-b850-976c-78a0-0ee6e0ea9ef0@redhat.com/ [1] Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220914072603.60293-3-songmuchun@bytedance.comSuggested-by:

Patch series "simplify handling of per-node sysfs creation and removal", v4. This patch (of 2): The following commit offload per-node sysfs creation and removal to a kworker and did not say why it is needed. And it also said "I don't know that this is absolutely required". It seems like the author was not sure as well. Since it only complicates the code, this patch will revert the changes to simplify the code. 39da08cb ("hugetlb: offload per node attribute registrations") We could use memory hotplug notifier to do per-node sysfs creation and removal instead of inserting those operations to node registration and unregistration. Then, it can reduce the code coupling between node.c and hugetlb.c. Also, it can simplify the code.

The name "check_free_page()" provides no information regarding its return value when the page is indeed found to be bad. Renaming it to "free_page_is_bad()" makes it clear that a `true' return value means the page was bad. And make it return a bool, not an int.

When the 'kdamond_wait_activation()' function or 'after_sampling()' or 'after_aggregation()' DAMON callbacks return an error, it is unnecessary to use bool 'done' to check if kdamond should be finished. This commit simplifies the kdamond stop mechanism by removing 'done' and break the while loop directly in the cases.
