If a memcg to charge can be determined (using remote charging API), there are no reasons to exclude allocations made from an interrupt context from the accounting. Such allocations will pass even if the resulting memcg size will exceed the hard limit, but it will affect the application of the memory pressure and an inability to put the workload under the limit will eventually trigger the OOM. To use active_memcg() helper, memcg_kmem_bypass() is moved back to memcontrol.c. Signed-off-by:

Remote memcg charging API uses current->active_memcg to store the currently active memory cgroup, which overwrites the memory cgroup of the current process. It works well for normal contexts, but doesn't work for interrupt contexts: indeed, if an interrupt occurs during the execution of a section with an active memcg set, all allocations inside the interrupt will be charged to the active memcg set (given that we'll enable accounting for allocations from an interrupt context). But because the interrupt might have no relation to the active memcg set outside, it's obviously wrong from the accounting prospective. To resolve this problem, let's add a global percpu int_active_memcg variable, which will be used to store an active memory cgroup which will be used from interrupt contexts. set_active_memcg() will transparently use current->active_memcg or int_active_memcg depending on the context. To make the read part simple and transparent for the caller, let's introduce two new functions: - struct mem_cgroup *active_memcg(void), - struct mem_cgroup *get_active_memcg(void). They are returning the active memcg if it's set, hiding all implementation details: where to get it depending on the current context. Signed-off-by:

There are checks for current->mm and current->active_memcg in get_obj_cgroup_from_current(), but these checks are redundant: memcg_kmem_bypass() called just above performs same checks. Signed-off-by:

Patch series "mm: kmem: kernel memory accounting in an interrupt context". This patchset implements memcg-based memory accounting of allocations made from an interrupt context. Historically, such allocations were passed unaccounted mostly because charging the memory cgroup of the current process wasn't an option. Also performance reasons were likely a reason too. The remote charging API allows to temporarily overwrite the currently active memory cgroup, so that all memory allocations are accounted towards some specified memory cgroup instead of the memory cgroup of the current process. This patchset extends the remote charging API so that it can be used from an interrupt context. Then it removes the fence that prevented the accounting of allocations made from an interrupt context. It also contains a couple of optimizations/code refactorings. This patchset doesn't directly enable accounting for any specific allocations, but prepares the code base for it. The bpf memory accounting will likely be the first user of it: a typical example is a bpf program parsing an incoming network packet, which allocates an entry in hashmap map to store some information. This patch (of 4): Currently memcg_kmem_bypass() is called before obtaining the current memory/obj cgroup using get_mem/obj_cgroup_from_current(). Moving memcg_kmem_bypass() into get_mem/obj_cgroup_from_current() reduces the number of call sites and allows further code simplifications. Signed-off-by:

Currently the remote memcg charging API consists of two functions: memalloc_use_memcg() and memalloc_unuse_memcg(), which set and clear the memcg value, which overwrites the memcg of the current task. memalloc_use_memcg(target_memcg); <...> memalloc_unuse_memcg(); It works perfectly for allocations performed from a normal context, however an attempt to call it from an interrupt context or just nest two remote charging blocks will lead to an incorrect accounting. On exit from the inner block the active memcg will be cleared instead of being restored. memalloc_use_memcg(target_memcg); memalloc_use_memcg(target_memcg_2); <...> memalloc_unuse_memcg(); Error: allocation here are charged to the memcg of the current process instead of target_memcg. memalloc_unuse_memcg(); This patch extends the remote charging API by switching to a single function: struct mem_cgroup *set_active_memcg(struct mem_cgroup *memcg), which sets the new value and returns the old one. So a remote charging block will look like: old_memcg = set_active_memcg(target_memcg); <...> set_active_memcg(old_memcg); This patch is heavily based on the patch by Johannes Weiner, which can be found here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/5/28/806 .

Pull afs updates from David Howells: "A collection of fixes to fix afs_cell struct refcounting, thereby fixing a slew of related syzbot bugs: - Fix the cell tree in the netns to use an rwsem rather than RCU. There seem to be some problems deriving from the use of RCU and a seqlock to walk the rbtree, but it's not entirely clear what since there are several different failures being seen. Changing things to use an rwsem instead makes it more robust. The extra performance derived from using RCU isn't necessary in this case since the only time we're looking up a cell is during mount or when cells are being manually added. - Fix the refcounting by splitting the usage counter into a memory refcount and an active users counter. The usage counter was doing double duty, keeping track of whether a cell is still in use and keeping track of when it needs to be destroyed - but this makes the clean up tricky. Separating these out simplifies the logic. - Fix purging a cell that has an alias. A cell alias pins the cell it's an alias of, but the alias is always later in the list. Trying to purge in a single pass causes rmmod to hang in such a case. - Fix cell removal. If a cell's manager is requeued whilst it's removing itself, the manager will run again and re-remove itself, causing problems in various places. Follow Hillf Danton's suggestion to insert a more terminal state that causes the manager to do nothing post-removal. In additional to the above, two other changes: - Add a tracepoint for the cell refcount and active users count. This helped with debugging the above and may be useful again in future. - Downgrade an assertion to a print when a still-active server is seen during purging. This was happening as a consequence of incomplete cell removal before the servers were cleaned up" * tag 'afs-fixes-20201016' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs: afs: Don't assert on unpurgeable server records afs: Add tracing for cell refcount and active user count afs: Fix cell removal afs: Fix cell purging with aliases afs: Fix cell refcounting by splitting the usage counter afs: Fix rapid cell addition/removal by not using RCU on cells tree -

Patch series "add fault injection to user memory access", v3. The goal of this series is to improve testing of fault-tolerance in usages of user memory access functions, by adding support for fault injection. syzkaller/syzbot are using the existing fault injection modes and will use this particular feature also. The first patch adds failure injection capability for usercopy functions. The second changes usercopy functions to use this new failure capability (copy_from_user, ...). The third patch adds get/put/clear_user failures to x86. This patch (of 3): Add a failure injection capability to improve testing of fault-tolerance in usages of user memory access functions. Add CONFIG_FAULT_INJECTION_USERCOPY to enable faults in usercopy functions. The should_fail_usercopy function is to be called by these functions (copy_from_user, get_user, ...) in order to fail or not. Signed-off-by:

When the kernel is compiled with Clang, -fsanitize=bounds expands to -fsanitize=array-bounds and -fsanitize=local-bounds. Enabling -fsanitize=local-bounds with Clang has the unfortunate side-effect of inserting traps; this goes back to its original intent, which was as a hardening and not a debugging feature [1]. The same feature made its way into -fsanitize=bounds, but the traps remained. For that reason, -fsanitize=bounds was split into 'array-bounds' and 'local-bounds' [2]. Since 'local-bounds' doesn't behave like a normal sanitizer, enable it with Clang only if trapping behaviour was requested by CONFIG_UBSAN_TRAP=y. Add the UBSAN_BOUNDS_LOCAL config to Kconfig.ubsan to enable the 'local-bounds' option by default when UBSAN_TRAP is enabled.

in_ubsan field of task_struct is only used in lib/ubsan.c, which in its turn is used only `ifneq ($(CONFIG_UBSAN_TRAP),y)`. Removing unnecessary field from a task_struct will help preserve the ABI between vanilla and CONFIG_UBSAN_TRAP'ed kernels. In particular, this will help enabling bounds sanitizer transparently for Android's GKI. Signed-off-by:

rio_dma_transfer() attempts to clamp the return value of pin_user_pages_fast() to be >= 0. However, the attempt fails because nr_pages is overridden a few lines later, and restored to the undesirable -ERRNO value. The return value is ultimately stored in nr_pages, which in turn is passed to unpin_user_pages(), which expects nr_pages >= 0, else, disaster. Fix this by fixing the nesting of the assignment to nr_pages: nr_pages should be clamped to zero if pin_user_pages_fast() returns -ERRNO, or set to the return value of pin_user_pages_fast(), otherwise.

ramfs needs to check that pages are both physically contiguous and contiguous in the file.

In both binfmt_elf and binfmt_elf_fdpic, use a new helper dump_vma_snapshot() to take a snapshot of the VMA list (including the gate VMA, if we have one) while protected by the mmap_lock, and then use that snapshot instead of walking the VMA list without locking. An alternative approach would be to keep the mmap_lock held across the entire core dumping operation; however, keeping the mmap_lock locked while we may be blocked for an unbounded amount of time (e.g. because we're dumping to a FUSE filesystem or so) isn't really optimal; the mmap_lock blocks things like the ->release handler of userfaultfd, and we don't really want critical system daemons to grind to a halt just because someone "gifted" them SCM_RIGHTS to an eternally-locked userfaultfd, or something like that. Since both the normal ELF code and the FDPIC ELF code need this functionality (and if any other binfmt wants to add coredump support in the future, they'd probably need it, too), implement this with a common helper in fs/coredump.c. A downside of this approach is that we now need a bigger amount of kernel memory per userspace VMA in the normal ELF case, and that we need O(n) kernel memory in the FDPIC ELF case at all; but 40 bytes per VMA shouldn't be terribly bad. There currently is a data race between stack expansion and anything that reads ->vm_start or ->vm_end under the mmap_lock held in read mode; to mitigate that for core dumping, take the mmap_lock in write mode when taking a snapshot of the VMA hierarchy. (If we only took the mmap_lock in read mode, we could end up with a corrupted core dump if someone does get_user_pages_remote() concurrently. Not really a major problem, but taking the mmap_lock either way works here, so we might as well avoid the issue.) (This doesn't do anything about the existing data races with stack expansion in other mm code.) Signed-off-by:

At the moment, the binfmt_elf and binfmt_elf_fdpic code have slightly different code to figure out which VMAs should be dumped, and if so, whether the dump should contain the entire VMA or just its first page. Eliminate duplicate code by reworking the binfmt_elf version into a generic core dumping helper in coredump.c. As part of that, change the heuristic for detecting executable/library header pages to check whether the inode is executable instead of looking at the file mode. This is less problematic in terms of locking because it lets us avoid get_user() under the mmap_sem. (And arguably it looks nicer and makes more sense in generic code.) Adjust a little bit based on the binfmt_elf_fdpic version: ->anon_vma is only meaningful under CONFIG_MMU, otherwise we have to assume that the VMA has been written to. Suggested-by:
