      userfaultfd: change the read API to return a uffd_msg · a9b85f94
      Andrea Arcangeli authored
      I had requests to return the full address (not the page aligned one) to
      userland.
      
      It's not entirely clear how the page offset could be relevant because
      userfaults aren't like SIGBUS that can sigjump to a different place and it
      actually skip resolving the fault depending on a page offset.  There's
      currently no real way to skip the fault especially because after a
      UFFDIO_COPY|ZEROPAGE, the fault is optimized to be retried within the
      kernel without having to return to userland first (not even self modifying
      code replacing the .text that touched the faulting address would prevent
      the fault to be repeated).  Userland cannot skip repeating the fault even
      more so if the fault was triggered by a KVM secondary page fault or any
      get_user_pages or any copy-user inside some syscall which will return to
      kernel code.  The second time FAULT_FLAG_RETRY_NOWAIT won't be set leading
      to a SIGBUS being raised because the userfault can't wait if it cannot
      release the mmap_map first (and FAULT_FLAG_RETRY_NOWAIT is required for
      that).
      
      Still returning userland a proper structure during the read() on the uffd,
      can allow to use the current UFFD_API for the future non-cooperative
      extensions too and it looks cleaner as well.  Once we get additional
      fields there's no point to return the fault address page aligned anymore
      to reuse the bits below PAGE_SHIFT.
      
      The only downside is that the read() syscall will read 32bytes instead of
      8bytes but that's not going to be measurable overhead.
      
      The total number of new events that can be extended or of new future bits
      for already shipped events, is limited to 64 by the features field of the
      uffdio_api structure.  If more will be needed a bump of UFFD_API will be
      required.

      userfaultfd: Rename uffd_api.bits into .features · 3f602d27
      Pavel Emelyanov authored
      This is (seems to be) the minimal thing that is required to unblock
      standard uffd usage from the non-cooperative one.  Now more bits can be
      added to the features field indicating e.g.  UFFD_FEATURE_FORK and others
      needed for the latter use-case.

      userfaultfd: add new syscall to provide memory externalization · 86039bd3
      Andrea Arcangeli authored
      Once an userfaultfd has been created and certain region of the process
      virtual address space have been registered into it, the thread responsible
      for doing the memory externalization can manage the page faults in
      userland by talking to the kernel using the userfaultfd protocol.
      
      poll() can be used to know when there are new pending userfaults to be
      read (POLLIN).

      userfaultfd: prevent khugepaged to merge if userfaultfd is armed · c1294d05
      Andrea Arcangeli authored
      If userfaultfd is armed on a certain vma we can't "fill" the holes with
      zeroes or we'll break the userland on demand paging.  The holes if the
      userfault is armed, are really missing information (not zeroes) that the
      userland has to load from network or elsewhere.
      
      The same issue happens for wrprotected ptes that we can't just convert
      into a single writable pmd_trans_huge.
      
      We could however in theory still merge across zeropages if only
      VM_UFFD_MISSING is set (so if VM_UFFD_WP is not set)...  that could be
      slightly improved but it'd be much more complex code for a tiny corner
      case.

      userfaultfd: call handle_userfault() for userfaultfd_missing() faults · 6b251fc9
      Andrea Arcangeli authored
      This is where the page faults must be modified to call
      handle_userfault() if userfaultfd_missing() is true (so if the
      vma->vm_flags had VM_UFFD_MISSING set).
      
      handle_userfault() then takes care of blocking the page fault and
      delivering it to userland.
      
      The fault flags must also be passed as parameter so the "read|write"
      kind of fault can be passed to userland.

      userfaultfd: linux/Documentation/vm/userfaultfd.txt · 25edd8bf
      Andrea Arcangeli authored
      This is the latest userfaultfd patchset.  The postcopy live migration
      feature on the qemu side is mostly ready to be merged and it entirely
      depends on the userfaultfd syscall to be merged as well.  So it'd be great
      if this patchset could be reviewed for merging in -mm.
      
      Userfaults allow to implement on demand paging from userland and more
      generally they allow userland to more efficiently take control of the
      behavior of page faults than what was available before (PROT_NONE +
      SIGSEGV trap).
      
      The use cases are:
      
      1) KVM postcopy live migration (one form of cloud memory
         externalization).
      
         KVM postcopy live migration is the primary driver of this work:
      
          http://blog.zhaw.ch/icclab/setting-up-post-copy-live-migration-in-openstack/
          http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2015-02/msg04873.html
      
      2) postcopy live migration of binaries inside linux containers:
      
          http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.mm/132662
      
      3) KVM postcopy live snapshotting (allowing to limit/throttle the
         memory usage, unlike fork would, plus the avoidance of fork
         overhead in the first place).
      
         While the wrprotect tracking is not implemented yet, the syscall API is
         already contemplating the wrprotect fault tracking and it's generic enough
         to allow its later implementation in a backwards compatible fashion.
      
      4) KVM userfaults on shared memory. The UFFDIO_COPY lowlevel method
         should be extended to work also on tmpfs and then the
         uffdio_register.ioctls will notify userland that UFFDIO_COPY is
         available even when the registered virtual memory range is tmpfs
         backed.
      
      5) alternate mechanism to notify web browsers or apps on embedded
         devices that volatile pages have been reclaimed. This basically
         avoids the need to run a syscall before the app can access with the
         CPU the virtual regions marked volatile. This depends on point 4)
         to be fulfilled first, as volatile pages happily apply to tmpfs.
      
      Even though there wasn't a real use case requesting it yet, it also
      allows to implement distributed shared memory in a way that readonly
      shared mappings can exist simultaneously in different hosts and they
      can be become exclusive at the first wrprotect fault.
      
      This patch (of 22):
      
      Add documentation.

      mm/slab.h: fix argument order in cache_from_obj's error message · 2d16e0fd
      Daniel Borkmann authored
      While debugging a networking issue, I hit a condition that triggered an
      object to be freed into the wrong kmem cache, and thus triggered the
      warning in cache_from_obj().
      
      The arguments in the error message are in wrong order: the location
      of the object's kmem cache is in cachep, not s.

      mm/slub: don't wait for high-order page allocation · 45eb00cd
      Joonsoo Kim authored
      Description is almost copied from commit fb05e7a8 ("net: don't wait
      for order-3 page allocation").
      
      I saw excessive direct memory reclaim/compaction triggered by slub.  This
      causes performance issues and add latency.  Slub uses high-order
      allocation to reduce internal fragmentation and management overhead.  But,
      direct memory reclaim/compaction has high overhead and the benefit of
      high-order allocation can't compensate the overhead of both work.
      
      This patch makes auxiliary high-order allocation atomic.  If there is no
      memory pressure and memory isn't fragmented, the alloction will still
      success, so we don't sacrifice high-order allocation's benefit here.  If
      the atomic allocation fails, direct memory reclaim/compaction will not be
      triggered, allocation fallback to low-order immediately, hence the direct
      memory reclaim/compaction overhead is avoided.  In the allocation failure
      case, kswapd is waken up and trying to make high-order freepages, so
      allocation could success next time.
      
      Following is the test to measure effect of this patch.
      
      System: QEMU, CPU 8, 512 MB
      Mem: 25% memory is allocated at random position to make fragmentation.
       Memory-hogger occupies 150 MB memory.

      mm/slub: fix slab double-free in case of duplicate sysfs filename · 80da026a
      Konstantin Khlebnikov authored
      sysfs_slab_add() shouldn't call kobject_put at error path: this puts last
      reference of kmem-cache kobject and frees it.  Kmem cache will be freed
      second time at error path in kmem_cache_create().
      
      For example this happens when slub debug was enabled in runtime and
      somebody creates new kmem cache:
      
      # echo 1 | tee /sys/kernel/slab/*/sanity_checks
      # modprobe configfs
      
      "configfs_dir_cache" cannot be merged because existing slab have debug and
      cannot create new slab because unique name ":t-0000096" already taken.

      mm/slub: move slab initialization into irq enabled region · 588f8ba9
      Thomas Gleixner authored
      Initializing a new slab can introduce rather large latencies because most
      of the initialization runs always with interrupts disabled.
      
      There is no point in doing so.  The newly allocated slab is not visible
      yet, so there is no reason to protect it against concurrent alloc/free.
      
      Move the expensive parts of the initialization into allocate_slab(), so
      for all allocations with GFP_WAIT set, interrupts are enabled.

      slub bulk alloc: extract objects from the per cpu slab · 994eb764
      Jesper Dangaard Brouer authored
      First piece: acceleration of retrieval of per cpu objects
      
      If we are allocating lots of objects then it is advantageous to disable
      interrupts and avoid the this_cpu_cmpxchg() operation to get these objects
      faster.
      
      Note that we cannot do the fast operation if debugging is enabled, because
      we would have to add extra code to do all the debugging checks.  And it
      would not be fast anyway.
      
      Note also that the requirement of having interrupts disabled avoids having
      to do processor flag operations.
      
      Allocate as many objects as possible in the fast way and then fall back to
      the generic implementation for the rest of the objects.

      slab: infrastructure for bulk object allocation and freeing · 484748f0
      Christoph Lameter authored
      Add the basic infrastructure for alloc/free operations on pointer arrays.
      It includes a generic function in the common slab code that is used in
      this infrastructure patch to create the unoptimized functionality for slab
      bulk operations.
      
      Allocators can then provide optimized allocation functions for situations
      in which large numbers of objects are needed.  These optimization may
      avoid taking locks repeatedly and bypass metadata creation if all objects
      in slab pages can be used to provide the objects required.
      
      Allocators can extend the skeletons provided and add their own code to the
      bulk alloc and free functions.  They can keep the generic allocation and
      freeing and just fall back to those if optimizations would not work (like
      for example when debugging is on).

      slub: fix spelling succedd to succeed · 2ae44005
      Jesper Dangaard Brouer authored
      With this patchset the SLUB allocator now has both bulk alloc and free
      implemented.
      
      This patchset mostly optimizes the "fastpath" where objects are available
      on the per CPU fastpath page.  This mostly amortize the less-heavy
      none-locked cmpxchg_double used on fastpath.
      
      The "fallback" bulking (e.g __kmem_cache_free_bulk) provides a good basis
      for comparison.  Measurements[1] of the fallback functions
      __kmem_cache_{free,alloc}_bulk have been copied from slab_common.c and
      forced "noinline" to force a function call like slab_common.c.
      
      Measurements on CPU CPU i7-4790K @ 4.00GHz
      Baseline normal fastpath (alloc+free cost): 42 cycles(tsc) 10.601 ns

      Benchmarking shows impressive improvements in the "fastpath" with a small
      number of objects in the working set.  Once the working set increases,
      resulting in activating the "slowpath" (that contains the heavier locked
      cmpxchg_double) the improvement decreases.
      
      I'm currently working on also optimizing the "slowpath" (as network stack
      use-case hits this), but this patchset should provide a good foundation
      for further improvements.  Rest of my patch queue in this area needs some
      more work, but preliminary results are good.  I'm attending Netfilter
      Workshop[2] next week, and I'll hopefully return working on further
      improvements in this area.

      watchdog: introduce watchdog_park_threads() and watchdog_unpark_threads() · 81a4beef
      Ulrich Obergfell authored
      Originally watchdog_nmi_enable(cpu) and watchdog_nmi_disable(cpu) were
      only called in watchdog thread context.  However, the following commits
      utilize these functions outside of watchdog thread context too.
      
        commit 9809b18f
        Author: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.cz>
        Date:   Tue Sep 24 15:27:30 2013 -0700
      
            watchdog: update watchdog_thresh properly
      
        commit b3738d29
        Author: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com>
        Date:   Mon Nov 17 20:07:03 2014 +0100
      
            watchdog: Add watchdog enable/disable all functions
      
      Hence, it is now possible that these functions execute concurrently with
      the same 'cpu' argument.  This concurrency is problematic because per-cpu
      'watchdog_ev' can be accessed/modified without adequate synchronization.
      
      The patch series aims to address the above problem.  However, instead of
      introducing locks to protect per-cpu 'watchdog_ev' a different approach is
      taken: Invoke these functions by parking and unparking the watchdog
      threads (to ensure they are always called in watchdog thread context).
      
        static struct smp_hotplug_thread watchdog_threads = {
                 ...
                .park   = watchdog_disable, // calls watchdog_nmi_disable()
                .unpark = watchdog_enable,  // calls watchdog_nmi_enable()
        };
      
      Both previously mentioned commits call these functions in a similar way
      and thus in principle contain some duplicate code.  The patch series also
      avoids this duplication by providing a commonly usable mechanism.
      
      - Patch 1/4 introduces the watchdog_{park|unpark}_threads functions that
        park/unpark all watchdog threads specified in 'watchdog_cpumask'. They
        are intended to be called inside of kernel/watchdog.c only.
      
      - Patch 2/4 introduces the watchdog_{suspend|resume} functions which can
        be utilized by external callers to deactivate the hard and soft lockup
        detector temporarily.
      
      - Patch 3/4 utilizes watchdog_{park|unpark}_threads to replace some code
        that was introduced by commit 9809b18f.
      
      - Patch 4/4 utilizes watchdog_{suspend|resume} to replace some code that
        was introduced by commit b3738d29.
      
      A few corner cases should be mentioned here for completeness.
      
      - kthread_park() of watchdog/N could hang if cpu N is already locked up.
        However, if watchdog is enabled the lockup will be detected anyway.
      
      - kthread_unpark() of watchdog/N could hang if cpu N got locked up after
        kthread_park(). The occurrence of this scenario should be _very_ rare
        in practice, in particular because it is not expected that temporary
        deactivation will happen frequently, and if it happens at all it is
        expected that the duration of deactivation will be short.
      
      This patch (of 4): introduce watchdog_park_threads() and watchdog_unpark_threads()
      
      These functions are intended to be used only from inside kernel/watchdog.c
      to park/unpark all watchdog threads that are specified in
      watchdog_cpumask.

      smpboot: make cleanup to mirror setup · 3dd08c0c
      Frederic Weisbecker authored
      The per-cpu kthread cleanup() callback is the mirror of the setup()
      callback.  When the per-cpu kthread is started, it first calls setup()
      to initialize the resources which are then released by cleanup() when
      the kthread exits.
      
      Now since the introduction of a per-cpu kthread cpumask, the kthreads
      excluded by the cpumask on boot may happen to be parked immediately
      after their creation without taking the setup() stage, waiting to be
      asked to unpark to do so.  Then when smpboot_unregister_percpu_thread()
      is later called, the kthread is stopped without having ever called
      setup().
      
      But this triggers a bug as the kthread unconditionally calls cleanup()
      on exit but this doesn't mirror any setup().  Thus the kernel crashes
      because we try to free resources that haven't been initialized, as in
      the watchdog case:
      
          WATCHDOG disable 0
          WATCHDOG disable 1
          WATCHDOG disable 2
          BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at           (null)
          IP: hrtimer_active+0x26/0x60
          [...]
          Call Trace:
            hrtimer_try_to_cancel+0x1c/0x280

            kthread+0xf8/0x110
            ret_from_fork+0x3f/0x70
      
      This bug is currently masked with explicit kthread unparking before
      kthread_stop() on smpboot_destroy_threads(). This forces a call to
      setup() and then unpark().
      
      We could fix this by unconditionally calling setup() on kthread entry.
      But setup() isn't always cheap.  In the case of watchdog it launches
      hrtimer, perf events, etc...  So we may as well like to skip it if there
      are chances the kthread will never be used, as in a reduced cpumask value.
      
      So let's simply do a state machine check before calling cleanup() that
      makes sure setup() has been called before mirroring it.
      
      And remove the nasty hack workaround.

      fs: create and use seq_show_option for escaping · a068acf2
      Kees Cook authored
      Many file systems that implement the show_options hook fail to correctly
      escape their output which could lead to unescaped characters (e.g.  new
      lines) leaking into /proc/mounts and /proc/[pid]/mountinfo files.  This
      could lead to confusion, spoofed entries (resulting in things like
      systemd issuing false d-bus "mount" notifications), and who knows what
      else.  This looks like it would only be the root user stepping on
      themselves, but it's possible weird things could happen in containers or
      in other situations with delegated mount privileges.
      
      Here's an example using overlay with setuid fusermount trusting the
      contents of /proc/mounts (via the /etc/mtab symlink).  Imagine the use
      of "sudo" is something more sneaky:
      
        $ BASE="ovl"
        $ MNT="$BASE/mnt"
        $ LOW="$BASE/lower"
        $ UP="$BASE/upper"
        $ WORK="$BASE/work/ 0 0
        none /proc fuse.pwn user_id=1000"
        $ mkdir -p "$LOW" "$UP" "$WORK"
        $ sudo mount -t overlay -o "lowerdir=$LOW,upperdir=$UP,workdir=$WORK" none /mnt
        $ cat /proc/mounts
        none /root/ovl/mnt overlay rw,relatime,lowerdir=ovl/lower,upperdir=ovl/upper,workdir=ovl/work/ 0 0
        none /proc fuse.pwn user_id=1000 0 0
        $ fusermount -u /proc
        $ cat /proc/mounts
        cat: /proc/mounts: No such file or directory
      
      This fixes the problem by adding new seq_show_option and
      seq_show_option_n helpers, and updating the vulnerable show_option
      handlers to use them as needed.  Some, like SELinux, need to be open
      coded due to unusual existing escape mechanisms.

      ocfs2: do not set fs read-only if rec[0] is empty while committing truncate · d0c97d52
      Xue jiufei authored
      While appending an extent to a file, it will call these functions:
      ocfs2_insert_extent
      
        -> call ocfs2_grow_tree() if there's no free rec
           -> ocfs2_add_branch add a new branch to extent tree,
              now rec[0] in the leaf of rightmost path is empty
        -> ocfs2_do_insert_extent
           -> ocfs2_rotate_tree_right
             -> ocfs2_extend_rotate_transaction
                -> jbd2_journal_restart if jbd2_journal_extend fail
           -> ocfs2_insert_path
              -> ocfs2_extend_trans
                -> jbd2_journal_restart if jbd2_journal_extend fail
              -> ocfs2_insert_at_leaf
           -> ocfs2_et_update_clusters
      Function jbd2_journal_restart() may be called and it may happened that
      buffers dirtied in ocfs2_add_branch() are committed
      while buffers dirtied in ocfs2_insert_at_leaf() and
      ocfs2_et_update_clusters() are not.
      So an empty rec[0] is left in rightmost path which will cause
      read-only filesystem when call ocfs2_commit_truncate()
      with the error message: "Inode %lu has an empty extent record".
      
      This is not a serious problem, so remove the rightmost path when call
      ocfs2_commit_truncate().

      ocfs2: call ocfs2_journal_access_di() before ocfs2_journal_dirty() in ocfs2_write_end_nolock() · 7f27ec97
      yangwenfang authored
      1: After we call ocfs2_journal_access_di() in ocfs2_write_begin(),
         jbd2_journal_restart() may also be called, in this function transaction
         A's t_updates-- and obtains a new transaction B.  If
         jbd2_journal_commit_transaction() is happened to commit transaction A,
         when t_updates==0, it will continue to complete commit and unfile
         buffer.
      
         So when jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata(), the handle is pointed a new
         transaction B, and the buffer head's journal head is already freed,
         jh->b_transaction == NULL, jh->b_next_transaction == NULL, it returns
         EINVAL, So it triggers the BUG_ON(status).
      
      thread 1                                          jbd2

          jbd2__journal_start(t_updates+1,
                             transaction A)

                    jbd2_journal_restart
                    (t_updates-1,transaction B) t_updates==0
                                              __jbd2_journal_refile_buffer
                                              (jh->b_transaction = NULL)
      ocfs2_write_end
      ocfs2_write_end_nolock
          ocfs2_journal_dirty
              jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata(bug)
         ocfs2_commit_trans
      
      2.  In ext4, I found that: jbd2_journal_get_write_access() called by
         ext4_write_end.
      
      ext4_write_begin
          ext4_journal_start
              __ext4_journal_start_sb
                  ext4_journal_check_start
                  jbd2__journal_start
      
      ext4_write_end
          ext4_mark_inode_dirty
              ext4_reserve_inode_write
                  ext4_journal_get_write_access
                      jbd2_journal_get_write_access
              ext4_mark_iloc_dirty
                  ext4_do_update_inode
                      ext4_handle_dirty_metadata
                          jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata
      
      3. So I think we should put ocfs2_journal_access_di before
         ocfs2_journal_dirty in the ocfs2_write_end.  and it works well after my
         modification.

      ocfs2: use 64bit variables to track heartbeat time · 40476b82
      Tina Ruchandani authored
      o2hb_elapsed_msecs computes the time taken for a disk heartbeat.
      'struct timeval' variables are used to store start and end times.  On
      32-bit systems, the 'tv_sec' component of 'struct timeval' will overflow
      in year 2038 and beyond.
      
      This patch solves the overflow with the following:
      
      1. Replace o2hb_elapsed_msecs using 'ktime_t' values to measure start
         and end time, and built-in function 'ktime_ms_delta' to compute the
         elapsed time.  ktime_get_real() is used since the code prints out the
         wallclock time.
      
      2. Changes format string to print time as a single 64-bit nanoseconds
         value ("%lld") instead of seconds and microseconds.  This simplifies
         the code since converting ktime_t to that format would need expensive
         computation.  However, the debug log string is less readable than the
         previous format.

      There is a race case between crashed dio and rm, which will lead to
      OCFS2_VALID_FL not set read-only.

                                        clear OCFS2_VALID_FL in

                                        recover N1 and read the corrupted inode,
                                        and set filesystem read-only
      
      So we skip the inode deletion this time and wait for dio entry recovered
      first.

      The following case will lead to a lockres is freed but is still in use.
      
      cat /sys/kernel/debug/o2dlm/locking_state	dlm_thread

          -> lock dlm->track_lock
          -> get resA
                                                      resA->refs decrease to 0,
                                                      call dlm_lockres_release,
                                                      and wait for "cat" unlock.
      Although resA->refs is already set to 0,
      increase resA->refs, and then unlock
                                                      lock dlm->track_lock

                                                          -> free resA
      
      In such a race case, invalid address access may occurs.  So we should
      delete list res->tracking before resA->refs decrease to 0.
