Patch series "mm/gup: prereqs to track dma-pinned pages: FOLL_PIN", v12. Overview: This is a prerequisite to solving the problem of proper interactions between file-backed pages, and [R]DMA activities, as discussed in [1], [2], [3], and in a remarkable number of email threads since about 2017. :) A new internal gup flag, FOLL_PIN is introduced, and thoroughly documented in the last patch's Documentation/vm/pin_user_pages.rst. I believe that this will provide a good starting point for doing the layout lease work that Ira Weiny has been working on. That's because these new wrapper functions provide a clean, constrained, systematically named set of functionality that, again, is required in order to even know if a page is "dma-pinned". In contrast to earlier approaches, the page tracking can be incrementally applied to the kernel call sites that, until now, have been simply calling get_user_pages() ("gup"). In other words, opt-in by changing from this: get_user_pages() (sets FOLL_GET) put_page() to this: pin_user_pages() (sets FOLL_PIN) unpin_user_page() Testing: * I've done some overall kernel testing (LTP, and a few other goodies), and some directed testing to exercise some of the changes. And as you can see, gup_benchmark is enhanced to exercise this. Basically, I've been able to runtime test the core get_user_pages() and pin_user_pages() and related routines, but not so much on several of the call sites--but those are generally just a couple of lines changed, each. Not much of the kernel is actually using this, which on one hand reduces risk quite a lot. But on the other hand, testing coverage is low. So I'd love it if, in particular, the Infiniband and PowerPC folks could do a smoke test of this series for me. Runtime testing for the call sites so far is pretty light: * io_uring: Some directed tests from liburing exercise this, and they pass. * process_vm_access.c: A small directed test passes. * gup_benchmark: the enhanced version hits the new gup.c code, and passes. * infiniband: Ran rdma-core tests: rdma-core/build/bin/run_tests.py * VFIO: compiles (I'm vowing to set up a run time test soon, but it's not ready just yet) * powerpc: it compiles... * drm/via: compiles... * goldfish: compiles... * net/xdp: compiles... * media/v4l2: compiles... [1] Some slow progress on get_user_pages() (Apr 2, 2019): https://lwn.net/Articles/784574/ [2] DMA and get_user_pages() (LPC: Dec 12, 2018): https://lwn.net/Articles/774411/ [3] The trouble with get_user_pages() (Apr 30, 2018): https://lwn.net/Articles/753027/ This patch (of 22): There are four locations in gup.c that have a fair amount of code duplication. This means that changing one requires making the same changes in four places, not to mention reading the same code four times, and wondering if there are subtle differences. Factor out the common code into static functions, thus reducing the overall line count and the code's complexity. Also, take the opportunity to slightly improve the efficiency of the error cases, by doing a mass subtraction of the refcount, surrounded by get_page()/put_page(). Also, further simplify (slightly), by waiting until the the successful end of each routine, to increment *nr.

sorry for not processing for a long time. I met it again. patch v1 https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/9/20/656 do_machine_check() do_memory_failure() memory_failure() hw_poison_user_mappings() try_to_unmap() pteval = swp_entry_to_pte(make_hwpoison_entry(subpage)); ...and now we have a swap entry that indicates that the page entry refers to a bad (and poisoned) page of memory, but gup_fast() at this level of the page table was ignoring swap entries, and incorrectly assuming that "!pxd_none() == valid and present". And this was not just a poisoned page problem, but a generaly swap entry problem. So, any swap entry type (device memory migration, numa migration, or just regular swapping) could lead to the same problem. Fix this by checking for pxd_present(), instead of pxd_none().

Commit 76a1850e ("mm/debug.c: __dump_page() prints an extra line") inadvertently removed printing of page flags for pages that are neither anon nor ksm nor have a mapping. Fix that. Using pr_cont() again would be a solution, but the commit explicitly removed its use. Avoiding the danger of mixing up split lines from multiple CPUs might be beneficial for near-panic dumps like this, so fix this without reintroducing pr_cont().

kmemleak_lock as a rwlock on RT can possibly be acquired in atomic context which does work. Since the kmemleak operation is performed in atomic context make it a raw_spinlock_t so it can also be acquired on RT. This is used for debugging and is not enabled by default in a production like environment (where performance/latency matters) so it makes sense to make it a raw_spinlock_t instead trying to get rid of the atomic context. Turn also the kmemleak_object->lock into raw_spinlock_t which is acquired (nested) while the kmemleak_lock is held. The time spent in "echo scan > kmemleak" slightly improved on 64core box with this patch applied after boot. [bigeasy@linutronix.de: redo the description, update comments.

There are users already and will be more of BITS_TO_BYTES() macro. Move it to bitops.h for wider use. In the case of ocfs2 the replacement is identical. As for bnx2x, there are two places where floor version is used. In the first case to calculate the amount of structures that can fit one memory page. In this case obviously the ceiling variant is correct and original code might have a potential bug, if amount of bits % 8 is not 0. In the second case the macro is used to calculate bytes transmitted in one microsecond. This will work for all speeds which is multiply of 1Gbps without any change, for the rest new code will give ceiling value, for instance 100Mbps will give 13 bytes, while old code gives 12 bytes and the arithmetically correct one is 12.5 bytes. Further the value is used to setup timer threshold which in any case has its own margins due to certain resolution. I don't see here an issue with slightly shifting thresholds for low speed connections, the card is supposed to utilize highest available rate, which is usually 10Gbps.

Since commit a49bd4d7 ("mm, numa: rework do_pages_move"), the semantic of move_pages() has changed to return the number of non-migrated pages if they were result of a non-fatal reasons (usually a busy page). This was an unintentional change that hasn't been noticed except for LTP tests which checked for the documented behavior. There are two ways to go around this change. We can even get back to the original behavior and return -EAGAIN whenever migrate_pages is not able to migrate pages due to non-fatal reasons. Another option would be to simply continue with the changed semantic and extend move_pages documentation to clarify that -errno is returned on an invalid input or when migration simply cannot succeed (e.g. -ENOMEM, -EBUSY) or the number of pages that couldn't have been migrated due to ephemeral reasons (e.g. page is pinned or locked for other reasons). This patch implements the second option because this behavior is in place for some time without anybody complaining and possibly new users depending on it. Also it allows to have a slightly easier error handling as the caller knows that it is worth to retry when err > 0. But since the new semantic would be aborted immediately if migration is failed due to ephemeral reasons, need include the number of non-attempted pages in the return value too.

Also with this reason, it would not be proper to add this page to a defer list. So the second code chunk is not correct. Based on this, we should remove the defer list related code.

The daxctl unit test for the dax_kmem driver currently triggers the (false positive) lockdep splat below. It results from the fact that remove_memory_block_devices() is invoked under the mem_hotplug_lock() causing lockdep entanglements with cpu_hotplug_lock() and sysfs (kernfs active state tracking). It is a false positive because the sysfs attribute path triggering the memory remove is not the same attribute path associated with memory-block device. sysfs_break_active_protection() is not applicable since there is no real deadlock conflict, instead move memory-block device removal outside the lock. The mem_hotplug_lock() is not needed to synchronize the memory-block device removal vs the page online state, that is already handled by lock_device_hotplug(). Specifically, lock_device_hotplug() is sufficient to allow try_remove_memory() to check the offline state of the memblocks and be assured that any in progress online attempts are flushed / blocked by kernfs_drain() / attribute removal. The add_memory() path safely creates memblock devices under the mem_hotplug_lock(). There is no kernfs active state synchronization in the memblock device_register() path, so nothing to fix there. This change is only possible thanks to the recent change that refactored memory block device removal out of arch_remove_memory() (commit 4c4b7f9b "mm/memory_hotplug: remove memory block devices before arch_remove_memory()"), and David's due diligence tracking down the guarantees afforded by kernfs_drain(). Not flagged for -stable since this only impacts ongoing development and lockdep validation, not a runtime issue. ====================================================== WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected 5.5.0-rc3+ #230 Tainted: G OE ------------------------------------------------------ lt-daxctl/6459 is trying to acquire lock: ffff99c7f0003510 (kn->count#241){++++}, at: kernfs_remove_by_name_ns+0x41/0x80 but task is already holding lock: ffffffffa76a5450 (mem_hotplug_lock.rw_sem){++++}, at: percpu_down_write+0x20/0xe0 which lock already depends on the new lock. the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is: -> #2 (mem_hotplug_lock.rw_sem){++++}: __lock_acquire+0x39c/0x790 lock_acquire+0xa2/0x1b0 get_online_mems+0x3e/0xb0 kmem_cache_create_usercopy+0x2e/0x260 kmem_cache_create+0x12/0x20 ptlock_cache_init+0x20/0x28 start_kernel+0x243/0x547 secondary_startup_64+0xb6/0xc0 -> #1 (cpu_hotplug_lock.rw_sem){++++}: __lock_acquire+0x39c/0x790 lock_acquire+0xa2/0x1b0 cpus_read_lock+0x3e/0xb0 online_pages+0x37/0x300 memory_subsys_online+0x17d/0x1c0 device_online+0x60/0x80 state_store+0x65/0xd0 kernfs_fop_write+0xcf/0x1c0 vfs_write+0xdb/0x1d0 ksys_write+0x65/0xe0 do_syscall_64+0x5c/0xa0 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x49/0xbe -> #0 (kn->count#241){++++}: check_prev_add+0x98/0xa40 validate_chain+0x576/0x860 __lock_acquire+0x39c/0x790 lock_acquire+0xa2/0x1b0 __kernfs_remove+0x25f/0x2e0 kernfs_remove_by_name_ns+0x41/0x80 remove_files.isra.0+0x30/0x70 sysfs_remove_group+0x3d/0x80 sysfs_remove_groups+0x29/0x40 device_remove_attrs+0x39/0x70 device_del+0x16a/0x3f0 device_unregister+0x16/0x60 remove_memory_block_devices+0x82/0xb0 try_remove_memory+0xb5/0x130 remove_memory+0x26/0x40 dev_dax_kmem_remove+0x44/0x6a [kmem] device_release_driver_internal+0xe4/0x1c0 unbind_store+0xef/0x120 kernfs_fop_write+0xcf/0x1c0 vfs_write+0xdb/0x1d0 ksys_write+0x65/0xe0 do_syscall_64+0x5c/0xa0 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x49/0xbe other info that might help us debug this: Chain exists of: kn->count#241 --> cpu_hotplug_lock.rw_sem --> mem_hotplug_lock.rw_sem Possible unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- lock(mem_hotplug_lock.rw_sem); lock(cpu_hotplug_lock.rw_sem); lock(mem_hotplug_lock.rw_sem); lock(kn->count#241); *** DEADLOCK *** No fixes tag as this has been a long standing issue that predated the addition of kernfs lockdep annotations.

After commit ba72b4c8 ("mm/sparsemem: support sub-section hotplug"), when a mem section is fully deactivated, section_mem_map still records the section's start pfn, which is not used any more and will be reassigned during re-addition. In analogy with alloc/free pattern, it is better to clear all fields of section_mem_map. Beside this, it breaks the user space tool "makedumpfile" [1], which makes assumption that a hot-removed section has mem_map as NULL, instead of checking directly against SECTION_MARKED_PRESENT bit. (makedumpfile will be better to change the assumption, and need a patch) The bug can be reproduced on IBM POWERVM by "drmgr -c mem -r -q 5" , trigger a crash, and save vmcore by makedumpfile [1]: makedumpfile, commit e73016540293 ("[v1.6.7] Update version") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1579487594-28889-1-git-send-email-kernelfans@gmail.comSigned-off-by: Pingfan Liu <kernelfans@gmail.com> Acked-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Acked-by: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com> Cc: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com> Cc: Oscar Salvador <osalvador@suse.de> Cc: Baoquan He <bhe@redhat.com> Cc: Qian Cai <cai@lca.pw> Cc: Kazuhito Hagio <k-hagio@ab.jp.nec.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

What we are trying to do is change the '=' character to a NUL terminator and then at the end of the function we restore it back to an '='. The problem is there are two error paths where we jump to the end of the function before we have replaced the '=' with NUL. We end up putting the '=' in the wrong place (possibly one element before the start of the buffer).

Without memcg, there is a one-to-one mapping between the bdi and bdi_writeback structures. In this world, things are fairly straightforward; the first thing bdi_unregister() does is to shutdown the bdi_writeback structure (or wb), and part of that writeback ensures that no other work queued against the wb, and that the wb is fully drained. With memcg, however, there is a one-to-many relationship between the bdi and bdi_writeback structures; that is, there are multiple wb objects which can all point to a single bdi. There is a refcount which prevents the bdi object from being released (and hence, unregistered). So in theory, the bdi_unregister() *should* only get called once its refcount goes to zero (bdi_put will drop the refcount, and when it is zero, release_bdi gets called, which calls bdi_unregister). Unfortunately, del_gendisk() in block/gen_hd.c never got the memo about the Brave New memcg World, and calls bdi_unregister directly. It does this without informing the file system, or the memcg code, or anything else. This causes the root wb associated with the bdi to be unregistered, but none of the memcg-specific wb's are shutdown. So when one of these wb's are woken up to do delayed work, they try to dereference their wb->bdi->dev to fetch the device name, but unfortunately bdi->dev is now NULL, thanks to the bdi_unregister() called by del_gendisk(). As a result, *boom*. Fortunately, it looks like the rest of the writeback path is perfectly happy with bdi->dev and bdi->owner being NULL, so the simplest fix is to create a bdi_dev_name() function which can handle bdi->dev being NULL. This also allows us to bulletproof the writeback tracepoints to prevent them from dereferencing a NULL pointer and crashing the kernel if one is tracing with memcg's enabled, and an iSCSI device dies or a USB storage stick is pulled. The most common way of triggering this will be hotremoval of a device while writeback with memcg enabled is going on. It was triggering several times a day in a heavily loaded production environment.

Pull thread management updates from Christian Brauner: "Sargun Dhillon over the last cycle has worked on the pidfd_getfd() syscall. This syscall allows for the retrieval of file descriptors of a process based on its pidfd. A task needs to have ptrace_may_access() permissions with PTRACE_MODE_ATTACH_REALCREDS (suggested by Oleg and Andy) on the target. One of the main use-cases is in combination with seccomp's user notification feature. As a reminder, seccomp's user notification feature was made available in v5.0. It allows a task to retrieve a file descriptor for its seccomp filter. The file descriptor is usually handed of to a more privileged supervising process. The supervisor can then listen for syscall events caught by the seccomp filter of the supervisee and perform actions in lieu of the supervisee, usually emulating syscalls. pidfd_getfd() is needed to expand its uses. There are currently two major users that wait on pidfd_getfd() and one future user: - Netflix, Sargun said, is working on a service mesh where users should be able to connect to a dns-based VIP. When a user connects to e.g. 1.2.3.4:80 that runs e.g. service "foo" they will be redirected to an envoy process. This service mesh uses seccomp user notifications and pidfd to intercept all connect calls and instead of connecting them to 1.2.3.4:80 connects them to e.g. 127.0.0.1:8080. - LXD uses the seccomp notifier heavily to intercept and emulate mknod() and mount() syscalls for unprivileged containers/processes. With pidfd_getfd() more uses-cases e.g. bridging socket connections will be possible. - The patchset has also seen some interest from the browser corner. Right now, Firefox is using a SECCOMP_RET_TRAP sandbox managed by a broker process. In the future glibc will start blocking all signals during dlopen() rendering this type of sandbox impossible. Hence, in the future Firefox will switch to a seccomp-user-nofication based sandbox which also makes use of file descriptor retrieval. The thread for this can be found at https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2019-12/msg00079.html With pidfd_getfd() it is e.g. possible to bridge socket connections for the supervisee (binding to a privileged port) and taking actions on file descriptors on behalf of the supervisee in general. Sargun's first version was using an ioctl on pidfds but various people pushed for it to be a proper syscall which he duely implemented as well over various review cycles. Selftests are of course included. I've also added instructions how to deal with merge conflicts below. There's also a small fix coming from the kernel mentee project to correctly annotate struct sighand_struct with __rcu to fix various sparse warnings. We've received a few more such fixes and even though they are mostly trivial I've decided to postpone them until after -rc1 since they came in rather late and I don't want to risk introducing build warnings. Finally, there's a new prctl() command PR_{G,S}ET_IO_FLUSHER which is needed to avoid allocation recursions triggerable by storage drivers that have userspace parts that run in the IO path (e.g. dm-multipath, iscsi, etc). These allocation recursions deadlock the device. The new prctl() allows such privileged userspace components to avoid allocation recursions by setting the PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO and PF_LESS_THROTTLE flags. The patch carries the necessary acks from the relevant maintainers and is routed here as part of prctl() thread-management." * tag 'threads-v5.6' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux: prctl: PR_{G,S}ET_IO_FLUSHER to support controlling memory reclaim sched.h: Annotate sighand_struct with __rcu test: Add test for pidfd getfd arch: wire up pidfd_getfd syscall pid: Implement pidfd_getfd syscall vfs, fdtable: Add fget_task helper

I've gone through all users of time_t again to make sure the kernel is in a long-term maintainable state, replacing all remaining references to time_t with safe alternatives. Some related parts of the series were picked up into the nfsd, xfs, alsa and v4l2 trees. A final set of patches in linux-mm removes the now unused time_t/timeval/timespec types and helper functions after all five branches are merged for linux-5.6, ensuring that no new users get merged. As a result, linux-5.6, or my backport of the patches to 5.4 [1], should be the first release that can serve as a base for a 32-bit system designed to run beyond year 2038, with a few remaining caveats: - All user space must be compiled with a 64-bit time_t, which will be supported in the coming musl-1.2 and glibc-2.32 releases, along with installed kernel headers from linux-5.6 or higher. - Applications that use the system call interfaces directly need to be ported to use the time64 syscalls added in linux-5.1 in place of the existing system calls. This impacts most users of futex() and seccomp() as well as programming languages that have their own runtime environment not based on libc. - Applications that use a private copy of kernel uapi header files or their contents may need to update to the linux-5.6 version, in particular for sound/asound.h, xfs/xfs_fs.h, linux/input.h, linux/elfcore.h, linux/sockios.h, linux/timex.h and linux/can/bcm.h. - A few remaining interfaces cannot be changed to pass a 64-bit time_t in a compatible way, so they must be configured to use CLOCK_MONOTONIC times or (with a y2106 problem) unsigned 32-bit timestamps. Most importantly this impacts all users of 'struct input_event'. - All y2038 problems that are present on 64-bit machines also apply to 32-bit machines. In particular this affects file systems with on-disk timestamps using signed 32-bit seconds: ext4 with ext3-style small inodes, ext2, xfs (to be fixed soon) and ufs" [1] https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/playground.git/log/?h=y2038-endgame * tag 'y2038-drivers-for-v5.6-signed' of git://git.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/playground: (21 commits) Revert "drm/etnaviv: reject timeouts with tv_nsec >= NSEC_PER_SEC" y2038: sh: remove timeval/timespec usage from headers y2038: sparc: remove use of struct timex y2038: rename itimerval to __kernel_old_itimerval y2038: remove obsolete jiffies conversion functions nfs: fscache: use timespec64 in inode auxdata nfs: fix timstamp debug prints nfs: use time64_t internally sunrpc: convert to time64_t for expiry drm/etnaviv: avoid deprecated timespec drm/etnaviv: reject timeouts with tv_nsec >= NSEC_PER_SEC drm/msm: avoid using 'timespec' hfs/hfsplus: use 64-bit inode timestamps hostfs: pass 64-bit timestamps to/from user space packet: clarify timestamp overflow tsacct: add 64-bit btime field acct: stop using get_seconds() um: ubd: use 64-bit time_t where possible xtensa: ISS: avoid struct timeval dlm: use SO_SNDTIMEO_NEW instead of SO_SNDTIMEO_OLD ...

We're not consistent in how the file table is grabbed and assigned if we have a command linked that requires the use of it. Add ->file_table to the io_op_defs[] array, and use that to determine when to grab the table instead of having the handlers set it if they need to defer. This also means we can kill the IO_WQ_WORK_NEEDS_FILES flag. We always initialize work->files, so io-wq can just check for that. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
