32-bit architectures which expect 8-byte alignment for 8-byte integers and
need 64-bit DMA addresses (arm, mips, ppc) had their struct page
inadvertently expanded in 2019. When the dma_addr_t was added, it forced
the alignment of the union to 8 bytes, which inserted a 4 byte gap between
'flags' and the union.
Fix this by storing the dma_addr_t in one or two adjacent unsigned longs.
This restores the alignment to that of an unsigned long. We always
store the low bits in the first word to prevent the PageTail bit from
being inadvertently set on a big endian platform. If that happened,
get_user_pages_fast() racing against a page which was freed and
reallocated to the page_pool could dereference a bogus compound_head(),
which would be hard to trace back to this cause.

Patch series "mm/hugetlb: Fix issues on file sealing and fork", v2.
Hugh reported issue with F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE not applied correctly to
hugetlbfs, which I can easily verify using the memfd_test program, which
seems that the program is hardly run with hugetlbfs pages (as by default
shmem).
Meanwhile I found another probably even more severe issue on that hugetlb
fork won't wr-protect child cow pages, so child can potentially write to
parent private pages. Patch 2 addresses that.
After this series applied, "memfd_test hugetlbfs" should start to pass.
This patch (of 2):
F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE is missing for hugetlb starting from the first day.
There is a test program for that and it fails constantly.
$ ./memfd_test hugetlbfs
memfd-hugetlb: CREATE
memfd-hugetlb: BASIC
memfd-hugetlb: SEAL-WRITE
memfd-hugetlb: SEAL-FUTURE-WRITE
mmap() didn't fail as expected
Aborted (core dumped)
I think it's probably because no one is really running the hugetlbfs test.
Fix it by checking FUTURE_WRITE also in hugetlbfs_file_mmap() as what we
do in shmem_mmap(). Generalize a helper for that.

Merge VT_RESIZEX fixes from Maciej Rozycki:
"I got to the bottom of the issue with VT_RESIZEX recently discussed
and came up with this small patch series, fixing an additional issue
that I originally thought might be broken VGA hardware emulation with
my laptop, which however turned out to be intertwined with the
original problem and also a regression introduced somewhat later.
The fix for that because the first patch, and then to make backporting
feasible I had to put a revert of the offending change from last
September next, followed by a proper fix for the framebuffer issue
that change had tried to address.
See individual change descriptions for details.
These have been verified with true VGA hardware (a Trident TVGA8900
ISA video adapter) using various combinations of `svgatextmode' and
`setfont' command invocations to change both the VT size and the font
size, and also switching between the text console and X11, both by
starting/stopping the X server and by switching between VTs.
All this to ensure bringing the behaviour of VGA text console back to
correct operation as it used to be with Linux 2.6.18"
* emailed patches from Maciej W. Rozycki <macro@orcam.me.uk>:
vt: Fix character height handling with VT_RESIZEX
vt_ioctl: Revert VT_RESIZEX parameter handling removal
vgacon: Record video mode changes with VT_RESIZEX
|
|
Restore the original intent of the VT_RESIZEX ioctl's `v_clin' parameter
which is the number of pixel rows per character (cell) rather than the
height of the font used.
For framebuffer devices the two values are always the same, because the
former is inferred from the latter one. For VGA used as a true text
mode device these two parameters are independent from each other: the
number of pixel rows per character is set in the CRT controller, while
font height is in fact hardwired to 32 pixel rows and fonts of heights
below that value are handled by padding their data with blanks when
loaded to hardware for use by the character generator. One can change
the setting in the CRT controller and it will update the screen contents
accordingly regardless of the font loaded.
The `v_clin' parameter is used by the `vgacon' driver to set the height
of the character cell and then the cursor position within. Make the
parameter explicit then, by defining a new `vc_cell_height' struct
member of `vc_data', set it instead of `vc_font.height' from `v_clin' in
the VT_RESIZEX ioctl, and then use it throughout the `vgacon' driver
except where actual font data is accessed which as noted above is
independent from the CRTC setting.
This way the framebuffer console driver is free to ignore the `v_clin'
parameter as irrelevant, as it always should have, avoiding any issues
attempts to give the parameter a meaning there could have caused, such
as one that has led to commit 988d0763361b ("vt_ioctl: make VT_RESIZEX
behave like VT_RESIZE"):
"syzbot is reporting UAF/OOB read at bit_putcs()/soft_cursor() [1][2],
for vt_resizex() from ioctl(VT_RESIZEX) allows setting font height
larger than actual font height calculated by con_font_set() from
ioctl(PIO_FONT). Since fbcon_set_font() from con_font_set() allocates
minimal amount of memory based on actual font height calculated by
con_font_set(), use of vt_resizex() can cause UAF/OOB read for font
data."
The problem first appeared around Linux 2.5.66 which predates our repo
history, but the origin could be identified with the old MIPS/Linux repo
also at: <git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ralf/linux.git>
as commit 9736a3546de7 ("Merge with Linux 2.5.66."), where VT_RESIZEX
code in `vt_ioctl' was updated as follows:
if (clin)
- video_font_height = clin;
+ vc->vc_font.height = clin;
making the parameter apply to framebuffer devices as well, perhaps due
to the use of "font" in the name of the original `video_font_height'
variable. Use "cell" in the new struct member then to avoid ambiguity.

__blk_mq_sched_bio_merge() gets the ctx and hctx for the current CPU and
passes the hctx to ->bio_merge(). kyber_bio_merge() then gets the ctx
for the current CPU again and uses that to get the corresponding Kyber
context in the passed hctx. However, the thread may be preempted between
the two calls to blk_mq_get_ctx(), and the ctx returned the second time
may no longer correspond to the passed hctx. This "works" accidentally
most of the time, but it can cause us to read garbage if the second ctx
came from an hctx with more ctx's than the first one (i.e., if
ctx->index_hw[hctx->type] > hctx->nr_ctx).

"o" isn't a common asm() constraint to use; it triggers an assertion in
assert-enabled builds of LLVM that it's not recognized when targeting
aarch64 (though it appears to fall back to "m"). It's fixed in LLVM 13 now,
but there isn't really a good reason to use "o" in particular here. To
avoid causing build issues for those using assert-enabled builds of earlier
LLVM versions, the constraint needs changing.
Instead, if the point is to retain the __builtin_alloca(), make ptr appear
to "escape" via being an input to an empty inline asm block. This is
preferable anyways, since otherwise this looks like a dead store.
While the use of "r" was considered in
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/202104011447.2E7F543@keescook/
it was only tested as an output (which looks like a dead store, and wasn't
sufficient).
Use "r" as an input constraint instead, which behaves correctly across
compilers and architectures.

As pm_runtime_need_not_resume() relies also on usage_count, it can return
a different value in pm_runtime_force_suspend() compared to when called in
pm_runtime_force_resume(). Different return values can happen if anything
calls PM runtime functions in between, and causes the parent child_count
to increase on every resume.
So far I've seen the issue only for omapdrm that does complicated things
with PM runtime calls during system suspend for legacy reasons:
omap_atomic_commit_tail() for omapdrm.0
dispc_runtime_get()
wakes up 58000000.dss as it's the dispc parent
dispc_runtime_resume()
rpm_resume() increases parent child_count
dispc_runtime_put() won't idle, PM runtime suspend blocked
pm_runtime_force_suspend() for 58000000.dss, !pm_runtime_need_not_resume()
__update_runtime_status()
system suspended
pm_runtime_force_resume() for 58000000.dss, pm_runtime_need_not_resume()
pm_runtime_enable() only called because of pm_runtime_need_not_resume()
omap_atomic_commit_tail() for omapdrm.0
dispc_runtime_get()
wakes up 58000000.dss as it's the dispc parent
dispc_runtime_resume()
rpm_resume() increases parent child_count
dispc_runtime_put() won't idle, PM runtime suspend blocked
...
rpm_suspend for 58000000.dss but parent child_count is now unbalanced
Let's fix the issue by adding a flag for needs_force_resume and use it in
pm_runtime_force_resume() instead of pm_runtime_need_not_resume().
Additionally omapdrm system suspend could be simplified later on to avoid
lots of unnecessary PM runtime calls and the complexity it adds. The
driver can just use internal functions that are shared between the PM
runtime and system suspend related functions.

<linux/kconfig.h> is included from all the kernel-space source files,
including C, assembly, linker scripts. It is intended to contain a
minimal set of macros to evaluate CONFIG options.
IF_ENABLED() is an intruder here because (x ? y : z) is C code, which
should not be included from assembly files or linker scripts.
Also, <linux/kconfig.h> is no longer self-contained because NULL is
defined in <linux/stddef.h>.
Move IF_ENABLED() out to <linux/kernel.h> as PTR_IF(). PTF_IF()
takes the general boolean expression instead of a CONFIG option
so that it fits better in <linux/kernel.h>.

The section "19) Editor modelines and other cruft" in
Documentation/process/coding-style.rst clearly says, "Do not include any
of these in source files."
I recently receive a patch to explicitly add a new one.
Let's do treewide cleanups, otherwise some people follow the existing code
and attempt to upstream their favoriate editor setups.
It is even nicer if scripts/checkpatch.pl can check it.
If we like to impose coding style in an editor-independent manner, I think
editorconfig (patch [1]) is a saner solution.

Patch series "drivers/char: remove /dev/kmem for good".
Exploring /dev/kmem and /dev/mem in the context of memory hot(un)plug and
memory ballooning, I started questioning the existence of /dev/kmem.
Comparing it with the /proc/kcore implementation, it does not seem to be
able to deal with things like
a) Pages unmapped from the direct mapping (e.g., to be used by secretmem)
-> kern_addr_valid(). virt_addr_valid() is not sufficient.
b) Special cases like gart aperture memory that is not to be touched
-> mem_pfn_is_ram()
Unless I am missing something, it's at least broken in some cases and might
fault/crash the machine.
Looks like its existence has been questioned before in 2005 and 2010 [1],
after ~11 additional years, it might make sense to revive the discussion.
CONFIG_DEVKMEM is only enabled in a single defconfig (on purpose or by
mistake?). All distributions disable it: in Ubuntu it has been disabled
for more than 10 years, in Debian since 2.6.31, in Fedora at least
starting with FC3, in RHEL starting with RHEL4, in SUSE starting from
15sp2, and OpenSUSE has it disabled as well.
1) /dev/kmem was popular for rootkits [2] before it got disabled
basically everywhere. Ubuntu documents [3] "There is no modern user of
/dev/kmem any more beyond attackers using it to load kernel rootkits.".
RHEL documents in a BZ [5] "it served no practical purpose other than to
serve as a potential security problem or to enable binary module drivers
to access structures/functions they shouldn't be touching"
2) /proc/kcore is a decent interface to have a controlled way to read
kernel memory for debugging puposes. (will need some extensions to
deal with memory offlining/unplug, memory ballooning, and poisoned
pages, though)
3) It might be useful for corner case debugging [1]. KDB/KGDB might be a
better fit, especially, to write random memory; harder to shoot
yourself into the foot.
4) "Kernel Memory Editor" [4] hasn't seen any updates since 2000 and seems
to be incompatible with 64bit [1]. For educational purposes,
/proc/kcore might be used to monitor value updates -- or older
kernels can be used.
5) It's broken on arm64, and therefore, completely disabled there.
Looks like it's essentially unused and has been replaced by better
suited interfaces for individual tasks (/proc/kcore, KDB/KGDB). Let's
just remove it.

Patch series "background initramfs unpacking, and CONFIG_MODPROBE_PATH", v3.
These two patches are independent, but better-together.
The second is a rather trivial patch that simply allows the developer to
change "/sbin/modprobe" to something else - e.g. the empty string, so
that all request_module() during early boot return -ENOENT early, without
even spawning a usermode helper, needlessly synchronizing with the
initramfs unpacking.
The first patch delegates decompressing the initramfs to a worker thread,
allowing do_initcalls() in main.c to proceed to the device_ and late_
initcalls without waiting for that decompression (and populating of
rootfs) to finish. Obviously, some of those later calls may rely on the
initramfs being available, so I've added synchronization points in the
firmware loader and usermodehelper paths - there might be other places
that would need this, but so far no one has been able to think of any
places I have missed.
There's not much to win if most of the functionality needed during boot is
only available as modules. But systems with a custom-made .config and
initramfs can boot faster, partly due to utilizing more than one cpu
earlier, partly by avoiding known-futile modprobe calls (which would still
trigger synchronization with the initramfs unpacking, thus eliminating
most of the first benefit).
This patch (of 2):
Most of the boot process doesn't actually need anything from the
initramfs, until of course PID1 is to be executed. So instead of doing
the decompressing and populating of the initramfs synchronously in
populate_rootfs() itself, push that off to a worker thread.
This is primarily motivated by an embedded ppc target, where unpacking
even the rather modest sized initramfs takes 0.6 seconds, which is long
enough that the external watchdog becomes unhappy that it doesn't get
attention soon enough. By doing the initramfs decompression in a worker
thread, we get to do the device_initcalls and hence start petting the
watchdog much sooner.
Normal desktops might benefit as well. On my mostly stock Ubuntu kernel,
my initramfs is a 26M xz-compressed blob, decompressing to around 126M.
That takes almost two seconds:
[ 0.201454] Trying to unpack rootfs image as initramfs...
[ 1.976633] Freeing initrd memory: 29416K
Before this patch, these lines occur consecutively in dmesg. With this
patch, the timestamps on these two lines is roughly the same as above, but
with 172 lines inbetween - so more than one cpu has been kept busy doing
work that would otherwise only happen after the populate_rootfs()
finished.
Should one of the initcalls done after rootfs_initcall time (i.e., device_
and late_ initcalls) need something from the initramfs (say, a kernel
module or a firmware blob), it will simply wait for the initramfs
unpacking to be done before proceeding, which should in theory make this
completely safe.
But if some driver pokes around in the filesystem directly and not via one
of the official kernel interfaces (i.e. request_firmware*(),
call_usermodehelper*) that theory may not hold - also, I certainly might
have missed a spot when sprinkling wait_for_initramfs(). So there is an
escape hatch in the form of an initramfs_async= command line parameter.

When I was implementing a latency analyzer tool by using task->delays
and other things, I found an issue in delayacct. The issue is it should
clear the target's flag instead of current's in delayacct_blkio_end().
When I git blame delayacct, I found there're some similar issues we have
fixed in delayacct_blkio_end().
- Commit c96f5471ce7d ("delayacct: Account blkio completion on the
correct task") fixed the issue that it should account blkio
completion on the target task instead of current.
- Commit b512719f771a ("delayacct: fix crash in delayacct_blkio_end()
after delayacct init failure") fixed the issue that it should check
target task's delays instead of current task'.
It seems that delayacct_blkio_{begin, end} are error prone.
So I introduce a new paratmeter - the target task 'p' - to these
helpers. After that change, the callsite will specifilly set the right
task, which should make it less error prone.

Similarly to bitmap functions, users would benefit if we'll handle a case
of small-size bitmaps that fit into a single word.
While here, move the find_last_bit() declaration to bitops/find.h where
other find_*_bit() functions sit.

Similarly to bitmap functions, find_next_*_bit() users will benefit if
we'll handle a case of bitmaps that fit into a single word inline. In the
very best case, the compiler may replace a function call with a few
instructions.
This is the quite typical find_next_bit() user:
unsigned int cpumask_next(int n, const struct cpumask *srcp)
{
/* -1 is a legal arg here. */
if (n != -1)
cpumask_check(n);
return find_next_bit(cpumask_bits(srcp), nr_cpumask_bits, n + 1);
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL(cpumask_next);
Currently, on ARM64 the generated code looks like this:
0000000000000000 <cpumask_next>:
0: a9bf7bfd stp x29, x30, [sp, #-16]!
4: 11000402 add w2, w0, #0x1
8: aa0103e0 mov x0, x1
c: d2800401 mov x1, #0x40 // #64
10: 910003fd mov x29, sp
14: 93407c42 sxtw x2, w2
18: 94000000 bl 0 <find_next_bit>
1c: a8c17bfd ldp x29, x30, [sp], #16
20: d65f03c0 ret
24: d503201f nop
After applying this patch:
0000000000000140 <cpumask_next>:
140: 11000400 add w0, w0, #0x1
144: 93407c00 sxtw x0, w0
148: f100fc1f cmp x0, #0x3f
14c: 54000168 b.hi 178 <cpumask_next+0x38> // b.pmore

154: 92800001 mov x1, #0xffffffffffffffff // #-1
158: 9ac02020 lsl x0, x1, x0

174: d65f03c0 ret
178: 52800800 mov w0, #0x40 // #64
17c: d65f03c0 ret
find_next_bit() call is replaced with 6 instructions. find_next_bit()
itself is 41 instructions plus function call overhead.
Despite inlining, the scripts/bloat-o-meter report smaller .text size
after applying the series:
