2021-07-28alpha: register early reserved memory in memblockMike Rapoport
The memory reserved by console/PALcode or non-volatile memory is not added to memblock.memory. Since commit fa3354e4ea39 (mm: free_area_init: use maximal zone PFNs rather than zone sizes) the initialization of the memory map relies on the accuracy of memblock.memory to properly calculate zone sizes. The holes in memblock.memory caused by absent regions reserved by the firmware cause incorrect initialization of struct pages which leads to BUG() during the initial page freeing: BUG: Bad page state in process swapper pfn:2ffc53 page:fffffc000ecf14c0 refcount:0 mapcount:1 mapping:0000000000000000 index:0x0 flags: 0x0() raw: 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 raw: 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 page dumped because: nonzero mapcount Modules linked in: CPU: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper Not tainted 5.7.0-03841-gfa3354e4ea39-dirty #26 fffffc0001b5bd68 fffffc0001b5be80 fffffc00011cd148 fffffc000ecf14c0 fffffc00019803df fffffc0001b5be80 fffffc00011ce340 fffffc000ecf14c0 0000000000000000 fffffc0001b5be80 fffffc0001b482c0 fffffc00027d6618 fffffc00027da7d0 00000000002ff97a 0000000000000000 fffffc0001b5be80 fffffc00011d1abc fffffc000ecf14c0 fffffc0002d00000 fffffc0001b5be80 fffffc0001b2350c 0000000000300000 fffffc0001b48298 fffffc0001b482c0 Trace: [<fffffc00011cd148>] bad_page+0x168/0x1b0 [<fffffc00011ce340>] free_pcp_prepare+0x1e0/0x290 [<fffffc00011d1abc>] free_unref_page+0x2c/0xa0 [<fffffc00014ee5f0>] cmp_ex_sort+0x0/0x30 [<fffffc00014ee5f0>] cmp_ex_sort+0x0/0x30 [<fffffc000101001c>] _stext+0x1c/0x20 Fix this by registering the reserved ranges in memblock.memory.

2021-07-25alpha: Send stop IPI to send to online CPUsPrarit Bhargava
This issue was noticed while debugging a shutdown issue where some secondary CPUs are not being shutdown correctly. A fix for that [1] requires that secondary cpus be offlined using the cpu_online_mask so that the stop operation is a no-op if CPU HOTPLUG is disabled. I, like the author in [1] looked at the architectures and found that alpha is one of two architectures that executes smp_send_stop() on all possible CPUs. On alpha, smp_send_stop() sends an IPI to all possible CPUs but only needs to send them to online CPUs. Send the stop IPI to only the online CPUs.

kernel.h is being used as a dump for all kinds of stuff for a long time. Here is the attempt to start cleaning it up by splitting out panic and oops helpers. There are several purposes of doing this: - dropping dependency in bug.h - dropping a loop by moving out panic_notifier.h - unload kernel.h from something which has its own domain At the same time convert users tree-wide to use new headers, although for the time being include new header back to kernel.h to avoid twisted indirected includes for existing users.

2021-06-29alpha: remove DISCONTIGMEM and NUMAMike Rapoport
Patch series "Remove DISCONTIGMEM memory model", v3. SPARSEMEM memory model was supposed to entirely replace DISCONTIGMEM a (long) while ago. The last architectures that used DISCONTIGMEM were updated to use other memory models in v5.11 and it is about the time to entirely remove DISCONTIGMEM from the kernel. This set removes DISCONTIGMEM from alpha, arc and m68k, simplifies memory model selection in mm/Kconfig and replaces usage of redundant CONFIG_NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES and CONFIG_FLAT_NODE_MEM_MAP with CONFIG_NUMA and CONFIG_FLATMEM respectively. I've also removed NUMA support on alpha that was BROKEN for more than 15 years. There were also minor updates all over arch/ to remove mentions of DISCONTIGMEM in comments and #ifdefs. This patch (of 9): NUMA is marked broken on alpha for more than 15 years and DISCONTIGMEM was replaced with SPARSEMEM in v5.11. Remove both NUMA and DISCONTIGMEM support from alpha.

2021-05-17quota: Disable quotactl_path syscallJan Kara
In commit fa8b90070a80 ("quota: wire up quotactl_path") we have wired up new quotactl_path syscall. However some people in LWN discussion have objected that the path based syscall is missing dirfd and flags argument which is mostly standard for contemporary path based syscalls. Indeed they have a point and after a discussion with Christian Brauner and Sascha Hauer I've decided to disable the syscall for now and update its API. Since there is no userspace currently using that syscall and it hasn't been released in any major release, we should be fine.

2021-05-12sched/core: Initialize the idle task with preemption disabledValentin Schneider
As pointed out by commit de9b8f5dcbd9 ("sched: Fix crash trying to dequeue/enqueue the idle thread") init_idle() can and will be invoked more than once on the same idle task. At boot time, it is invoked for the boot CPU thread by sched_init(). Then smp_init() creates the threads for all the secondary CPUs and invokes init_idle() on them. As the hotplug machinery brings the secondaries to life, it will issue calls to idle_thread_get(), which itself invokes init_idle() yet again. In this case it's invoked twice more per secondary: at _cpu_up(), and at bringup_cpu(). Given smp_init() already initializes the idle tasks for all *possible* CPUs, no further initialization should be required. Now, removing init_idle() from idle_thread_get() exposes some interesting expectations with regards to the idle task's preempt_count: the secondary startup always issues a preempt_disable(), requiring some reset of the preempt count to 0 between hot-unplug and hotplug, which is currently served by idle_thread_get() -> idle_init(). Given the idle task is supposed to have preemption disabled once and never see it re-enabled, it seems that what we actually want is to initialize its preempt_count to PREEMPT_DISABLED and leave it there. Do that, and remove init_idle() from idle_thread_get().

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jmorris/linux-security Pull Landlock LSM from James Morris: "Add Landlock, a new LSM from Mickaël Salaün. Briefly, Landlock provides for unprivileged application sandboxing. From Mickaël's cover letter: "The goal of Landlock is to enable to restrict ambient rights (e.g. global filesystem access) for a set of processes. Because Landlock is a stackable LSM [1], it makes possible to create safe security sandboxes as new security layers in addition to the existing system-wide access-controls. This kind of sandbox is expected to help mitigate the security impact of bugs or unexpected/malicious behaviors in user-space applications. Landlock empowers any process, including unprivileged ones, to securely restrict themselves. Landlock is inspired by seccomp-bpf but instead of filtering syscalls and their raw arguments, a Landlock rule can restrict the use of kernel objects like file hierarchies, according to the kernel semantic. Landlock also takes inspiration from other OS sandbox mechanisms: XNU Sandbox, FreeBSD Capsicum or OpenBSD Pledge/Unveil. In this current form, Landlock misses some access-control features. This enables to minimize this patch series and ease review.

Pull io_uring thread rewrite from Jens Axboe: "This converts the io-wq workers to be forked off the tasks in question instead of being kernel threads that assume various bits of the original task identity. This kills > 400 lines of code from io_uring/io-wq, and it's the worst part of the code. We've had several bugs in this area, and the worry is always that we could be missing some pieces for file types doing unusual things (recent /dev/tty example comes to mind, userfaultfd reads installing file descriptors is another fun one... - both of which need special handling, and I bet it's not the last weird oddity we'll find). With these identical workers, we can have full confidence that we're never missing anything. That, in itself, is a huge win. Outside of that, it's also more efficient since we're not wasting space and code on tracking state, or switching between different states. I'm sure we're going to find little things to patch up after this series, but testing has been pretty thorough, from the usual regression suite to production. Any issue that may crop up should be manageable. There's also a nice series of further reductions we can do on top of this, but I wanted to get the meat of it out sooner rather than later. The general worry here isn't that it's fundamentally broken. Most of the little issues we've found over the last week have been related to just changes in how thread startup/exit is done, since that's the main difference between using kthreads and these kinds of threads. In fact, if all goes according to plan, I want to get this into the 5.10 and 5.11 stable branches as well.

2021-01-24fs: add mount_setattr()Christian Brauner
This implements the missing mount_setattr() syscall. While the new mount api allows to change the properties of a superblock there is currently no way to change the properties of a mount or a mount tree using file descriptors which the new mount api is based on. In addition the old mount api has the restriction that mount options cannot be applied recursively. This hasn't changed since changing mount options on a per-mount basis was implemented in [1] and has been a frequent request not just for convenience but also for security reasons. The legacy mount syscall is unable to accommodate this behavior without introducing a whole new set of flags because MS_REC | MS_REMOUNT | MS_BIND | MS_RDONLY | MS_NOEXEC | [...] only apply the mount option to the topmost mount. Changing MS_REC to apply to the whole mount tree would mean introducing a significant uapi change and would likely cause significant regressions. The new mount_setattr() syscall allows to recursively clear and set mount options in one shot. Multiple calls to change mount options requesting the same changes are idempotent: int mount_setattr(int dfd, const char *path, unsigned flags, struct mount_attr *uattr, size_t usize); Flags to modify path resolution behavior are specified in the @flags argument. Currently, AT_EMPTY_PATH, AT_RECURSIVE, AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW, and AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT are supported. If useful, additional lookup flags to restrict path resolution as introduced with openat2() might be supported in the future. The mount_setattr() syscall can be expected to grow over time and is designed with extensibility in mind. It follows the extensible syscall pattern we have used with other syscalls such as openat2(), clone3(), sched_{set,get}attr(), and others. The set of mount options is passed in the uapi struct mount_attr which currently has the following layout: struct mount_attr { __u64 attr_set; __u64 attr_clr; __u64 propagation; __u64 userns_fd; }; The @attr_set and @attr_clr members are used to clear and set mount options. This way a user can e.g. request that a set of flags is to be raised such as turning mounts readonly by raising MOUNT_ATTR_RDONLY in @attr_set while at the same time requesting that another set of flags is to be lowered such as removing noexec from a mount tree by specifying MOUNT_ATTR_NOEXEC in @attr_clr. Note, since the MOUNT_ATTR_<atime> values are an enum starting from 0, not a bitmap, users wanting to transition to a different atime setting cannot simply specify the atime setting in @attr_set, but must also specify MOUNT_ATTR__ATIME in the @attr_clr field. So we ensure that MOUNT_ATTR__ATIME can't be partially set in @attr_clr and that @attr_set can't have any atime bits set if MOUNT_ATTR__ATIME isn't set in @attr_clr. The @propagation field lets callers specify the propagation type of a mount tree. Propagation is a single property that has four different settings and as such is not really a flag argument but an enum. Specifically, it would be unclear what setting and clearing propagation settings in combination would amount to. The legacy mount() syscall thus forbids the combination of multiple propagation settings too. The goal is to keep the semantics of mount propagation somewhat simple as they are overly complex as it is. The @userns_fd field lets user specify a user namespace whose idmapping becomes the idmapping of the mount. This is implemented and explained in detail in the next patch.

Pull TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL updates from Jens Axboe: "This sits on top of of the core entry/exit and x86 entry branch from the tip tree, which contains the generic and x86 parts of this work.

With that done, we can get rid of JOBCTL_TASK_WORK from task_work and signal.c, and also remove a deadlock work-around in io_uring around knowing that signal based task_work waking is invoked with the sighand wait queue head lock. The motivation for this work is to decouple signal notify based task_work, of which io_uring is a heavy user of, from sighand. The sighand lock becomes a huge contention point, particularly for threaded workloads where it's shared between threads. Even outside of threaded applications it's slower than it needs to be. Roman Gershman <romger@amazon.com> reported that his networked workload dropped from 1.6M QPS at 80% CPU to 1.0M QPS at 100% CPU after io_uring was changed to use TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL. The time was all spent hammering on the sighand lock, showing 57% of the CPU time there [1]. There are further cleanups possible on top of this. One example is TIF_PATCH_PENDING, where a patch already exists to use TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL instead.

2020-12-15alpha: switch from DISCONTIGMEM to SPARSEMEMMike Rapoport
Patch series "arch, mm: deprecate DISCONTIGMEM", v2. It's been a while since DISCONTIGMEM is generally considered deprecated, but it is still used by four architectures. This set replaces DISCONTIGMEM with a different way to handle holes in the memory map and marks DISCONTIGMEM configuration as BROKEN in Kconfigs of these architectures with the intention to completely remove it in several releases. While for 64-bit alpha and ia64 the switch to SPARSEMEM is quite obvious and was a matter of moving some bits around, for smaller 32-bit arc and m68k SPARSEMEM is not necessarily the best thing to do. On 32-bit machines SPARSEMEM would require large sections to make section index fit in the page flags, but larger sections mean that more memory is wasted for unused memory map. Besides, pfn_to_page() and page_to_pfn() become less efficient, at least on arc. So I've decided to generalize arm's approach for freeing of unused parts of the memory map with FLATMEM and enable it for both arc and m68k. The details are in the description of patches 10 (arc) and 13 (m68k). This patch (of 13): Enable SPARSEMEM support on alpha and deprecate DISCONTIGMEM. The required changes are mostly around moving duplicated definitions of page access and address conversion macros to a common place and making sure they are available for all memory models. The DISCONTINGMEM support is marked as BROKEN an will be removed in a couple of releases.

2020-11-19rtc: rework rtc_register_device() resource managementBartosz Golaszewski
rtc_register_device() is a managed interface but it doesn't use devres by itself - instead it marks an rtc_device as "registered" and the devres callback for devm_rtc_allocate_device() takes care of resource release. This doesn't correspond with the design behind devres where managed structures should not be aware of being managed. The correct solution here is to register a separate devres callback for unregistering the device. While at it: rename rtc_register_device() to devm_rtc_register_device() and add it to the list of managed interfaces in devres.rst. This way we can avoid any potential confusion of driver developers who may expect there to exist a corresponding unregister function.

The information required to make the reclaim decision is not known to the app. Instead, it is known to the centralized userspace daemon(ActivityManagerService), and that daemon must be able to initiate reclaim on its own without any app involvement. To solve the issue, this patch introduces a new syscall process_madvise(2). It uses pidfd of an external process to give the hint. It also supports vector address range because Android app has thousands of vmas due to zygote so it's totally waste of CPU and power if we should call the syscall one by one for each vma.(With testing 2000-vma syscall vs 1-vector syscall, it showed 15% performance improvement. I think it would be bigger in real practice because the testing ran very cache friendly environment). Another potential use case for the vector range is to amortize the cost ofTLB shootdowns for multiple ranges when using MADV_DONTNEED; this could benefit users like TCP receive zerocopy and malloc implementations. In future, we could find more usecases for other advises so let's make it happens as API since we introduce a new syscall at this moment. With that, existing madvise(2) user could replace it with process_madvise(2) with their own pid if they want to have batch address ranges support feature. ince it could affect other process's address range, only privileged process(PTRACE_MODE_ATTACH_FSCREDS) or something else(e.g., being the same UID) gives it the right to ptrace the process could use it successfully. The flag argument is reserved for future use if we need to extend the API. I think supporting all hints madvise has/will supported/support to process_madvise is rather risky. Because we are not sure all hints make sense from external process and implementation for the hint may rely on the caller being in the current context so it could be error-prone. Thus, I just limited hints as MADV_[COLD|PAGEOUT] in this patch. If someone want to add other hints, we could hear the usecase and review it for each hint. It's safer for maintenance rather than introducing a buggy syscall but hard to fix it later. So finally, the API is as follows, ssize_t process_madvise(int pidfd, const struct iovec *iovec, unsigned long vlen, int advice, unsigned int flags); DESCRIPTION The process_madvise() system call is used to give advice or directions to the kernel about the address ranges from external process as well as local process. It provides the advice to address ranges of process described by iovec and vlen. The goal of such advice is to improve system or application performance. The pidfd selects the process referred to by the PID file descriptor specified in pidfd. (See pidofd_open(2) for further information) The pointer iovec points to an array of iovec structures, defined in <sys/uio.h> as: struct iovec { void *iov_base; /* starting address */ size_t iov_len; /* number of bytes to be advised */ }; The iovec describes address ranges beginning at address(iov_base) and with size length of bytes(iov_len). The vlen represents the number of elements in iovec. The advice is indicated in the advice argument, which is one of the following at this moment if the target process specified by pidfd is external. MADV_COLD MADV_PAGEOUT Permission to provide a hint to external process is governed by a ptrace access mode PTRACE_MODE_ATTACH_FSCREDS check; see ptrace(2). The process_madvise supports every advice madvise(2) has if target process is in same thread group with calling process so user could use process_madvise(2) to extend existing madvise(2) to support vector address ranges. RETURN VALUE On success, process_madvise() returns the number of bytes advised. This return value may be less than the total number of requested bytes, if an error occurred. The caller should check return value to determine whether a partial advice occurred. FAQ: Q.1 - Why does any external entity have better knowledge? Quote from Sandeep "For Android, every application (including the special SystemServer) are forked from Zygote. The reason of course is to share as many libraries and classes between the two as possible to benefit from the preloading during boot. After applications start, (almost) all of the APIs end up calling into this SystemServer process over IPC (binder) and back to the application. In a fully running system, the SystemServer monitors every single process periodically to calculate their PSS / RSS and also decides which process is "important" to the user for interactivity. So, because of how these processes start _and_ the fact that the SystemServer is looping to monitor each process, it does tend to *know* which address range of the application is not used / useful. Besides, we can never rely on applications to clean things up themselves. We've had the "hey app1, the system is low on memory, please trim your memory usage down" notifications for a long time[1]. They rely on applications honoring the broadcasts and very few do. So, if we want to avoid the inevitable killing of the application and restarting it, some way to be able to tell the OS about unimportant memory in these applications will be useful. - ssp Q.2 - How to guarantee the race(i.e., object validation) between when giving a hint from an external process and get the hint from the target process? process_madvise operates on the target process's address space as it exists at the instant that process_madvise is called. If the space target process can run between the time the process_madvise process inspects the target process address space and the time that process_madvise is actually called, process_madvise may operate on memory regions that the calling process does not expect. It's the responsibility of the process calling process_madvise to close this race condition. For example, the calling process can suspend the target process with ptrace, SIGSTOP, or the freezer cgroup so that it doesn't have an opportunity to change its own address space before process_madvise is called. Another option is to operate on memory regions that the caller knows a priori will be unchanged in the target process. Yet another option is to accept the race for certain process_madvise calls after reasoning that mistargeting will do no harm. The suggested API itself does not provide synchronization. It also apply other APIs like move_pages, process_vm_write. The race isn't really a problem though. Why is it so wrong to require that callers do their own synchronization in some manner? Nobody objects to write(2) merely because it's possible for two processes to open the same file and clobber each other's writes --- instead, we tell people to use flock or something. Think about mmap. It never guarantees newly allocated address space is still valid when the user tries to access it because other threads could unmap the memory right before. That's where we need synchronization by using other API or design from userside. It shouldn't be part of API itself. If someone needs more fine-grained synchronization rather than process level, there were two ideas suggested - cookie[2] and anon-fd[3]. Both are applicable via using last reserved argument of the API but I don't think it's necessary right now since we have already ways to prevent the race so don't want to add additional complexity with more fine-grained optimization model. To make the API extend, it reserved an unsigned long as last argument so we could support it in future if someone really needs it. Q.3 - Why doesn't ptrace work? Injecting an madvise in the target process using ptrace would not work for us because such injected madvise would have to be executed by the target process, which means that process would have to be runnable and that creates the risk of the abovementioned race and hinting a wrong VMA. Furthermore, we want to act the hint in caller's context, not the callee's, because the callee is usually limited in cpuset/cgroups or even freezed state so they can't act by themselves quick enough, which causes more thrashing/kill. It doesn't work if the target process are ptraced(e.g., strace, debugger, minidump) because a process can have at most one ptracer.

2020-09-03dma-mapping: introduce dma_get_seg_boundary_nr_pages()Nicolin Chen
We found that callers of dma_get_seg_boundary mostly do an ALIGN with page mask and then do a page shift to get number of pages: ALIGN(boundary + 1, 1 << shift) >> shift However, the boundary might be as large as ULONG_MAX, which means that a device has no specific boundary limit. So either "+ 1" or passing it to ALIGN() would potentially overflow. According to kernel defines: #define ALIGN_MASK(x, mask) (((x) + (mask)) & ~(mask)) #define ALIGN(x, a) ALIGN_MASK(x, (typeof(x))(a) - 1) We can simplify the logic here into a helper function doing: ALIGN(boundary + 1, 1 << shift) >> shift = ALIGN_MASK(b + 1, (1 << s) - 1) >> s = {[b + 1 + (1 << s) - 1] & ~[(1 << s) - 1]} >> s = [b + 1 + (1 << s) - 1] >> s = [b + (1 << s)] >> s = (b >> s) + 1 This patch introduces and applies dma_get_seg_boundary_nr_pages() as an overflow-free helper for the dma_get_seg_boundary() callers to get numbers of pages. It also takes care of the NULL dev case for non-DMA API callers.
