Stack guard page is a useful feature to reduce a risk of stack smashing into a different mapping. We have been using a single page gap which is sufficient to prevent having stack adjacent to a different mapping. But this seems to be insufficient in the light of the stack usage in userspace. E.g. glibc uses as large as 64kB alloca() in many commonly used functions. Others use constructs liks gid_t buffer[NGROUPS_MAX] which is 256kB or stack strings with MAX_ARG_STRLEN. This will become especially dangerous for suid binaries and the default no limit for the stack size limit because those applications can be tricked to consume a large portion of the stack and a single glibc call could jump over the guard page. These attacks are not theoretical, unfortunatelly. Make those attacks less probable by increasing the stack guard gap to 1MB (on systems with 4k pages; but make it depend on the page size because systems with larger base pages might cap stack allocations in the PAGE_SIZE units) which should cover larger alloca() and VLA stack allocations. It is obviously not a full fix because the problem is somehow inherent, but it should reduce attack space a lot. One could argue that the gap size should be configurable from userspace, but that can be done later when somebody finds that the new 1MB is wrong for some special case applications. For now, add a kernel command line option (stack_guard_gap) to specify the stack gap size (in page units). Implementation wise, first delete all the old code for stack guard page: because although we could get away with accounting one extra page in a stack vma, accounting a larger gap can break userspace - case in point, a program run with "ulimit -S -v 20000" failed when the 1MB gap was counted for RLIMIT_AS; similar problems could come with RLIMIT_MLOCK and strict non-overcommit mode. Instead of keeping gap inside the stack vma, maintain the stack guard gap as a gap between vmas: using vm_start_gap() in place of vm_start (or vm_end_gap() in place of vm_end if VM_GROWSUP) in just those few places which need to respect the gap - mainly arch_get_unmapped_area(), and and the vma tree's subtree_gap support for that.

Commit e1587a49 ("mm: vmpressure: fix sending wrong events on underflow") declared that reclaimed pages exceed the scanned pages due to the thp reclaim. That is incorrect because THP will be spilt to normal page and loop again, which will result in the scanned pages increment.

Anon and hugetlbfs handle FOLL_DUMP set by get_dump_page() internally to __get_user_pages(). shmem as opposed has no special FOLL_DUMP handling there so handle_mm_fault() is invoked without mmap_sem and ends up calling handle_userfault() that isn't expecting to be invoked without mmap_sem held. This makes handle_userfault() fail immediately if invoked through shmem_vm_ops->fault during coredumping and solves the problem. The side effect is a BUG_ON with no lock held triggered by the coredumping process which exits. Only 4.11 is affected, pre-4.11 anon memory holes are skipped in __get_user_pages by checking FOLL_DUMP explicitly against empty pagetables (mm/gup.c:no_page_table()). It's zero cost as we already had a check for current->flags to prevent futex to trigger userfaults during exit (PF_EXITING).

In do_huge_pmd_numa_page(), we attempt to handle a migrating thp pmd by waiting until the pmd is unlocked before we return and retry. However, we can race with migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page(): // do_huge_pmd_numa_page // migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page() // Holds 0 refs on page // Holds 2 refs on page vmf->ptl = pmd_lock(vma->vm_mm, vmf->pmd); /* ... */ if (pmd_trans_migrating(*vmf->pmd)) { page = pmd_page(*vmf->pmd); spin_unlock(vmf->ptl); ptl = pmd_lock(mm, pmd); if (page_count(page) != 2)) { /* roll back */ } /* ... */ mlock_migrate_page(new_page, page); /* ... */ spin_unlock(ptl); put_page(page); put_page(page); // page freed here wait_on_page_locked(page); goto out; } This can result in the freed page having its waiters flag set unexpectedly, which trips the PAGE_FLAGS_CHECK_AT_PREP checks in the page alloc/free functions. This has been observed on arm64 KVM guests. We can avoid this by having do_huge_pmd_numa_page() take a reference on the page before dropping the pmd lock, mirroring what we do in __migration_entry_wait(). When we hit the race, migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page() will see the reference and abort the migration, as it may do today in other cases.

memory_failure() chooses a recovery action function based on the page flags.

This also fixes another problem in s/390 where the precision probing with sample_period == 0 returned precise_ip > 0, that then, when setting up the real cycles event (not probing) would return EOPNOTSUPP for precise_ip > 0 (as determined previously by probing) and sample_period > 0. These problems resulted in attr_precise not being set to the highest precision available on x86.64 when no event was specified, i.e. the canonical: perf record ./workload would end up using attr.precise_ip = 0. As a workaround this would need to be done: perf record -e cycles:P ./workload And on s/390 it would plain not work, requiring using: perf record -e cycles ./workload as a workaround. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Fix perf build with ARCH=x86_64, when ARCH should be transformed into ARCH=x86, just like with the main kernel Makefile and tools/objtool's, i.e. use SRCARCH.

The PC returned by dwfl_frame_pc() may map into a not-yet-reported module. We have to report it before we continue unwinding. But when we query for the isactivation flag in dwfl_frame_pc, libdw will actually do one more unwinding step internally which can then break and lead to missed frames or broken stacks. With libunwind we get e.g.: ~~~~~ heaptrack_gui 2228 135073.400474: 613969 cycles: 108c8e [unknown] (/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.8.0) 1093bc [unknown] (/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.8.0) 109e7b QLocale::QLocale (/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.8.0) 1470ff [unknown] (/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.8.0) 147f67 QSystemLocale::query (/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.8.0) 109fbf QLocalePrivate::updateSystemPrivate (/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.8.0) 10aa27 QLocale::QLocale (/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.8.0) 1e02c3 [unknown] (/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.8.0) 2113bb [unknown] (/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.8.0) 211505 [unknown] (/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.8.0) 1b5df0 QFileInfo::exists (/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.8.0) 92eb2 [unknown] (/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.8.0) 93423 [unknown] (/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.8.0) 93d2a QLibraryInfo::location (/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.8.0) 2170af [unknown] (/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.8.0) 297c53 QCoreApplicationPrivate::init (/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.8.0) f7cde QGuiApplicationPrivate::init (/usr/lib/libQt5Gui.so.5.8.0) 1589e8 QApplicationPrivate::init (/usr/lib/libQt5Widgets.so.5.8.0) 78622 main (/home/milian/projects/compiled/other/bin/heaptrack_gui) 20439 __libc_start_main (/usr/lib/libc-2.25.so) 78299 _start (/home/milian/projects/compiled/other/bin/heaptrack_gui) heaptrack_gui 2228 135073.401156: 569521 cycles: 131633 QString::endsWith (/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.8.0) 1a0701 QDir::cleanPath (/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.8.0) 21b82d [unknown] (/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.8.0) 1b3727 QFileInfo::canonicalFilePath (/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.8.0) 2780c7 QFactoryLoader::update (/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.8.0) 279525 QFactoryLoader::QFactoryLoader (/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.8.0) e5bd0 QPlatformIntegrationFactory::create (/usr/lib/libQt5Gui.so.5.8.0) f5a1c QGuiApplicationPrivate::createPlatformIntegration (/usr/lib/libQt5Gui.so.5.8.0) f650c QGuiApplicationPrivate::createEventDispatcher (/usr/lib/libQt5Gui.so.5.8.0) 298524 QCoreApplicationPrivate::init (/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.8.0) f7cde QGuiApplicationPrivate::init (/usr/lib/libQt5Gui.so.5.8.0) 1589e8 QApplicationPrivate::init (/usr/lib/libQt5Widgets.so.5.8.0) 78622 main (/home/milian/projects/compiled/other/bin/heaptrack_gui) 20439 __libc_start_main (/usr/lib/libc-2.25.so) 78299 _start (/home/milian/projects/compiled/other/bin/heaptrack_gui) ~~~~~ Note the two frames 1589e8 and 78622 in the first sample.

Pull rdma fixes from Doug Ledford: "I had thought at the time of the last pull request that there wouldn't be much more to go, but several things just kept trickling in over the last week. Instead of just the six patches to bnxt_re that I had anticipated, there are another five IPoIB patches, two qedr patches, and a few other miscellaneous patches. The bnxt_re patches are more lines of diff than I like to submit this late in the game. That's mostly because of the first two patches in the series of six. I almost dropped them just because of the lines of churn, but on a close review, a lot of the churn came from removing duplicated code sections and consolidating them into callable routines. I felt like this made the number of lines of change more acceptable, and they address problems, so I left them. The remainder of the patches are all small, well contained, and well understood. These have passed 0day testing, but have not been submitted to linux-next (but a local merge test with your current master was without any conflicts). Summary: - A fix for fix eea40b8f ("infiniband: call ipv6 route lookup via the stub interface") - Six patches against bnxt_re...the first two are considerably larger than I would like, but as they address real issues I went ahead and submitted them (it also helped that a good deal of the churn was removing code repeated in multiple places and consolidating it to one common function) - Two fixes against qedr that just came in - One fix against rxe that took a few revisions to get right plus time to get the proper reviews - Five late breaking IPoIB fixes - One late cxgb4 fix" * tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dledford/rdma: rdma/cxgb4: Fix memory leaks during module exit IB/ipoib: Fix memory leak in create child syscall IB/ipoib: Fix access to un-initialized napi struct IB/ipoib: Delete napi in device uninit default IB/ipoib: Limit call to free rdma_netdev for capable devices IB/ipoib: Fix memory leaks for child interfaces priv rxe: Fix a sleep-in-atomic bug in post_one_send RDMA/qedr: Add 64KB PAGE_SIZE support to user-space queues RDMA/qedr: Initialize byte_len in WC of READ and SEND commands RDMA/bnxt_re: Remove FMR support RDMA/bnxt_re: Fix RQE posting logic RDMA/bnxt_re: Add HW workaround for avoiding stall for UD QPs RDMA/bnxt_re: Dereg MR in FW before freeing the fast_reg_page_list RDMA/bnxt_re: HW workarounds for handling specific conditions RDMA/bnxt_re: Fixing the Control path command and response handling IB/addr: Fix setting source address in addr6_resolve()
