Currently, krealloc() always calls ksize(), which unpoisons the whole
object including the redzone. This is inefficient, as kasan_krealloc()
repoisons the redzone for objects that fit into the same buffer.
This patch changes krealloc() instrumentation to use uninstrumented
__ksize() that doesn't unpoison the memory. Instead, kasan_kreallos() is
changed to unpoison the memory excluding the redzone.
For objects that don't fit into the old allocation, this patch disables
KASAN accessibility checks when copying memory into a new object instead
of unpoisoning it.

Currently, if krealloc() is called on a freed object with KASAN enabled,
it allocates and returns a new object, but doesn't copy any memory from
the old one as ksize() returns 0. This makes the caller believe that
krealloc() succeeded (KASAN report is printed though).
This patch adds an accessibility check into __do_krealloc(). If the check
fails, krealloc() returns NULL. This check duplicates the one in ksize();
this is fixed in the following patch.
This patch also adds a KASAN-KUnit test to check krealloc() behaviour when
it's called on a freed object.

Unify checks in kasan_kfree_large() and in kasan_slab_free_mempool() for
large allocations as it's done for small kfree() allocations.
With this change, kasan_slab_free_mempool() starts checking that the first
byte of the memory that's being freed is accessible.

Put kasan_stack_collection_enabled() check and kasan_set_free_info() calls
next to each other.
The way this was previously implemented was a minor optimization that
relied of the the fact that kasan_stack_collection_enabled() is always
true for generic KASAN. The confusion that this brings outweights saving
a few instructions.

Similarly to kasan_kmalloc(), kasan_kmalloc_large() doesn't need to
unpoison the object as it as already unpoisoned by alloc_pages() (or by
ksize() for krealloc()).
This patch changes kasan_kmalloc_large() to only poison the redzone.

For allocations from kmalloc caches, kasan_kmalloc() always follows
kasan_slab_alloc(). Currenly, both of them unpoison the whole object,
which is unnecessary.
This patch provides separate implementations for both annotations:
kasan_slab_alloc() unpoisons the whole object, and kasan_kmalloc() only
poisons the redzone.
For generic KASAN, the redzone start might not be aligned to
KASAN_GRANULE_SIZE. Therefore, the poisoning is split in two parts:
kasan_poison_last_granule() poisons the unaligned part, and then
kasan_poison() poisons the rest.
This patch also clarifies alignment guarantees of each of the poisoning
functions and drops the unnecessary round_up() call for redzone_end.
With this change, the early SLUB cache annotation needs to be changed to
kasan_slab_alloc(), as kasan_kmalloc() doesn't unpoison objects now. The
number of poisoned bytes for objects in this cache stays the same, as
kmem_cache_node->object_size is equal to sizeof(struct kmem_cache_node).

Patch series "kasan: optimizations and fixes for HW_TAGS", v4.
This patchset makes the HW_TAGS mode more efficient, mostly by reworking
poisoning approaches and simplifying/inlining some internal helpers.
With this change, the overhead of HW_TAGS annotations excluding setting
and checking memory tags is ~3%. The performance impact caused by tags
will be unknown until we have hardware that supports MTE.
As a side-effect, this patchset speeds up generic KASAN by ~15%.
This patch (of 13):
Currently KASAN saves allocation stacks in both kasan_slab_alloc() and
kasan_kmalloc() annotations. This patch changes KASAN to save allocation
stacks for slab objects from kmalloc caches in kasan_kmalloc() only, and
stacks for other slab objects in kasan_slab_alloc() only.
This change requires ____kasan_kmalloc() knowing whether the object
belongs to a kmalloc cache. This is implemented by adding a flag field to
the kasan_info structure. That flag is only set for kmalloc caches via a
new kasan_cache_create_kmalloc() annotation.

We cannot rely on CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL to decide if we're running a "debug
kernel" where we can safely show potentially sensitive information in the
kernel log.
Instead, simply rely on the newly introduced "no_hash_pointers" to print
unhashed kernel pointers, as well as decide if our reports can include
other potentially sensitive information such as registers and corrupted
bytes.

Inserts KFENCE hooks into the SLUB allocator.
To pass the originally requested size to KFENCE, add an argument
'orig_size' to slab_alloc*(). The additional argument is required to
preserve the requested original size for kmalloc() allocations, which
uses size classes (e.g. an allocation of 272 bytes will return an object
of size 512). Therefore, kmem_cache::size does not represent the
kmalloc-caller's requested size, and we must introduce the argument
'orig_size' to propagate the originally requested size to KFENCE.
Without the originally requested size, we would not be able to detect
out-of-bounds accesses for objects placed at the end of a KFENCE object
page if that object is not equal to the kmalloc-size class it was
bucketed into.
When KFENCE is disabled, there is no additional overhead, since
slab_alloc*() functions are __always_inline.

Instead of removing the fault handling portion of the stack trace based on
the fault handler's name, just use struct pt_regs directly.
Change kfence_handle_page_fault() to take a struct pt_regs, and plumb it
through to kfence_report_error() for out-of-bounds, use-after-free, or
invalid access errors, where pt_regs is used to generate the stack trace.
If the kernel is a DEBUG_KERNEL, also show registers for more information.

Patch series "KFENCE: A low-overhead sampling-based memory safety error detector", v7.
This adds the Kernel Electric-Fence (KFENCE) infrastructure. KFENCE is a
low-overhead sampling-based memory safety error detector of heap
use-after-free, invalid-free, and out-of-bounds access errors. This
series enables KFENCE for the x86 and arm64 architectures, and adds
KFENCE hooks to the SLAB and SLUB allocators.
KFENCE is designed to be enabled in production kernels, and has near
zero performance overhead. Compared to KASAN, KFENCE trades performance
for precision. The main motivation behind KFENCE's design, is that with
enough total uptime KFENCE will detect bugs in code paths not typically
exercised by non-production test workloads. One way to quickly achieve a
large enough total uptime is when the tool is deployed across a large
fleet of machines.
KFENCE objects each reside on a dedicated page, at either the left or
right page boundaries. The pages to the left and right of the object
page are "guard pages", whose attributes are changed to a protected
state, and cause page faults on any attempted access to them. Such page
faults are then intercepted by KFENCE, which handles the fault
gracefully by reporting a memory access error.
Guarded allocations are set up based on a sample interval (can be set
via kfence.sample_interval). After expiration of the sample interval,
the next allocation through the main allocator (SLAB or SLUB) returns a
guarded allocation from the KFENCE object pool. At this point, the timer
is reset, and the next allocation is set up after the expiration of the
interval.
To enable/disable a KFENCE allocation through the main allocator's
fast-path without overhead, KFENCE relies on static branches via the
static keys infrastructure. The static branch is toggled to redirect the
allocation to KFENCE.
The KFENCE memory pool is of fixed size, and if the pool is exhausted no
further KFENCE allocations occur. The default config is conservative
with only 255 objects, resulting in a pool size of 2 MiB (with 4 KiB
pages).
We have verified by running synthetic benchmarks (sysbench I/O,
hackbench) and production server-workload benchmarks that a kernel with
KFENCE (using sample intervals 100-500ms) is performance-neutral
compared to a non-KFENCE baseline kernel.
KFENCE is inspired by GWP-ASan [1], a userspace tool with similar
properties. The name "KFENCE" is a homage to the Electric Fence Malloc
Debugger [2].

This patch (of 9):
This adds the Kernel Electric-Fence (KFENCE) infrastructure. KFENCE is a
low-overhead sampling-based memory safety error detector of heap
use-after-free, invalid-free, and out-of-bounds access errors.
KFENCE is designed to be enabled in production kernels, and has near
zero performance overhead. Compared to KASAN, KFENCE trades performance
for precision. The main motivation behind KFENCE's design, is that with
enough total uptime KFENCE will detect bugs in code paths not typically
exercised by non-production test workloads. One way to quickly achieve a
large enough total uptime is when the tool is deployed across a large
fleet of machines.
KFENCE objects each reside on a dedicated page, at either the left or
right page boundaries. The pages to the left and right of the object
page are "guard pages", whose attributes are changed to a protected
state, and cause page faults on any attempted access to them. Such page
faults are then intercepted by KFENCE, which handles the fault
gracefully by reporting a memory access error. To detect out-of-bounds
writes to memory within the object's page itself, KFENCE also uses
pattern-based redzones. The following figure illustrates the page
layout:
---+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+---
| xxxxxxxxx | O : | xxxxxxxxx | : O | xxxxxxxxx |
| xxxxxxxxx | B : | xxxxxxxxx | : B | xxxxxxxxx |
| x GUARD x | J : RED- | x GUARD x | RED- : J | x GUARD x |
| xxxxxxxxx | E : ZONE | xxxxxxxxx | ZONE : E | xxxxxxxxx |
| xxxxxxxxx | C : | xxxxxxxxx | : C | xxxxxxxxx |
| xxxxxxxxx | T : | xxxxxxxxx | : T | xxxxxxxxx |
---+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+---
Guarded allocations are set up based on a sample interval (can be set
via kfence.sample_interval). After expiration of the sample interval, a
guarded allocation from the KFENCE object pool is returned to the main
allocator (SLAB or SLUB). At this point, the timer is reset, and the
next allocation is set up after the expiration of the interval.
To enable/disable a KFENCE allocation through the main allocator's
fast-path without overhead, KFENCE relies on static branches via the
static keys infrastructure. The static branch is toggled to redirect the
allocation to KFENCE. To date, we have verified by running synthetic
benchmarks (sysbench I/O, hackbench) that a kernel compiled with KFENCE
is performance-neutral compared to the non-KFENCE baseline.
For more details, see Documentation/dev-tools/kfence.rst (added later in
the series).

There exists multiple path may do zram compaction concurrently.
1. auto-compaction triggered during memory reclaim
2. userspace utils write zram<id>/compaction node
So, multiple threads may call zs_shrinker_scan/zs_compact concurrently.
But pages_compacted is a per zsmalloc pool variable and modification
of the variable is not serialized(through under class->lock).
There are two issues here:
1. the pages_compacted may not equal to total number of pages
freed(due to concurrently add).
2. zs_shrinker_scan may not return the correct number of pages
freed(issued by current shrinker).
The fix is simple:
1. account the number of pages freed in zs_compact locally.
2. use actomic variable pages_compacted to accumulate total number.

Patch series "Fix the compatibility of zsmalloc and zswap".
Patch #1 adds a flag to zpool, then zswap used to determine if zpool
drivers such as zbud/z3fold/zsmalloc will enter an atomic context after
mapping.
The difference between zbud/z3fold and zsmalloc is that zsmalloc requires
an atomic context that since its map function holds a preempt-disabled,
but zbud/z3fold don't require an atomic context. So patch #2 sets flag
sleep_mapped to true indicating that zbud/z3fold can sleep after mapping.
zsmalloc didn't support sleep after mapping, so don't set that flag to
true.
This patch (of 2):
Add a flag to zpool, named is "can_sleep_mapped", and have it set true for
zbud/z3fold, not set this flag for zsmalloc, so its default value is
false. Then zswap could go the current path if the flag is true; and if
it's false, copy data from src to a temporary buffer, then unmap the
handle, take the mutex, process the buffer instead of src to avoid
sleeping function called from atomic context.

Patch series "mm/memory_hotplug: Pre-validate the address range with platform", v5.
This series adds a mechanism allowing platforms to weigh in and
prevalidate incoming address range before proceeding further with the
memory hotplug. This helps prevent potential platform errors for the
given address range, down the hotplug call chain, which inevitably fails
the hotplug itself.
This mechanism was suggested by David Hildenbrand during another
discussion with respect to a memory hotplug fix on arm64 platform.
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-kernel/1600332402-30123-1-git-send-email-anshuman.khandual@arm.com/
This mechanism focuses on the addressibility aspect and not [sub] section
alignment aspect. Hence check_hotplug_memory_range() and check_pfn_span()
have been left unchanged.
This patch (of 4):
This introduces mhp_range_allowed() which can be called in various memory
hotplug paths to prevalidate the address range which is being added, with
the platform. Then mhp_range_allowed() calls mhp_get_pluggable_range()
which provides applicable address range depending on whether linear
mapping is required or not. For ranges that require linear mapping, it
calls a new arch callback arch_get_mappable_range() which the platform can
override. So the new callback, in turn provides the platform an
opportunity to configure acceptable memory hotplug address ranges in case
there are constraints.
This mechanism will help prevent platform specific errors deep down during
hotplug calls. This drops now redundant
check_hotplug_memory_addressable() check in __add_pages() but instead adds
a VM_BUG_ON() check which would ensure that the range has been validated
with mhp_range_allowed() earlier in the call chain. Besides
mhp_get_pluggable_range() also can be used by potential memory hotplug
callers to avail the allowed physical range which would go through on a
given platform.
This does not really add any new range check in generic memory hotplug but
instead compensates for lost checks in arch_add_memory() where applicable
and check_hotplug_memory_addressable(), with unified mhp_range_allowed().

Given 'struct dev_pagemap' spans both data pages and metadata pages be
careful to consult the altmap if present to delineate metadata. In fact
the pfn_first() helper already identifies the first valid data pfn, so
export that helper for other code paths via pgmap_pfn_valid().
Other usage of get_dev_pagemap() are not a concern because those are
operating on known data pfns having been looked up by get_user_pages().
I.e. metadata pfns are never user mapped.

While pfn_to_online_page() is able to determine pfn_valid() at subsection
granularity it is not able to reliably determine if a given pfn is also
online if the section is mixes ZONE_{NORMAL,MOVABLE} with ZONE_DEVICE.
This means that pfn_to_online_page() may return invalid @page objects.
For example with a memory map like:
100000000-1fbffffff : System RAM
142000000-143002e16 : Kernel code
143200000-143713fff : Kernel rodata
143800000-143b15b7f : Kernel data
144227000-144ffffff : Kernel bss
1fc000000-2fbffffff : Persistent Memory (legacy)
1fc000000-2fbffffff : namespace0.0
This command:
echo 0x1fc000000 > /sys/devices/system/memory/soft_offline_page
...succeeds when it should fail. When it succeeds it touches an
uninitialized page and may crash or cause other damage (see
dissolve_free_huge_page()).
While the memory map above is contrived via the memmap=ss!nn kernel
command line option, the collision happens in practice on shipping
platforms. The memory controller resources that decode spans of physical
address space are a limited resource. One technique platform-firmware
uses to conserve those resources is to share a decoder across 2 devices to
keep the address range contiguous. Unfortunately the unit of operation of
a decoder is 64MiB while the Linux section size is 128MiB. This results
in situations where, without subsection hotplug memory mappings with
different lifetimes collide into one object that can only express one
lifetime.
Update move_pfn_range_to_zone() to flag (SECTION_TAINT_ZONE_DEVICE) a
section that mixes ZONE_DEVICE pfns with other online pfns. With
SECTION_TAINT_ZONE_DEVICE to delineate, pfn_to_online_page() can fall back
to a slow-path check for ZONE_DEVICE pfns in an online section. In the
fast path online_section() for a full ZONE_DEVICE section returns false.
Because the collision case is rare, and for simplicity, the
SECTION_TAINT_ZONE_DEVICE flag is never cleared once set.

pfn_to_online_page is primarily used to filter out offline or fully
uninitialized pages. pfn_valid resp. online_section_nr have a coarse
per memory section granularity. If a section shared with a partially
offline memory (e.g. part of ZONE_DEVICE) then pfn_to_online_page
would lead to a false positive on some pfns. Fix this by adding
pfn_section_valid check which is subsection aware.

Patch series "mm: Fix pfn_to_online_page() with respect to ZONE_DEVICE", v4.
A pfn-walker that uses pfn_to_online_page() may inadvertently translate a
pfn as online and in the page allocator, when it is offline managed by a
ZONE_DEVICE mapping (details in Patch 3: ("mm: Teach pfn_to_online_page()
about ZONE_DEVICE section collisions")).
The 2 proposals under consideration are teach pfn_to_online_page() to be
precise in the presence of mixed-zone sections, or teach the memory-add
code to drop the System RAM associated with ZONE_DEVICE collisions. In
order to not regress memory capacity by a few 10s to 100s of MiB the
approach taken in this set is to add precision to pfn_to_online_page().
In the course of validating pfn_to_online_page() a couple other fixes
fell out:
1/ soft_offline_page() fails to drop the reference taken in the
madvise(..., MADV_SOFT_OFFLINE) case.
2/ memory_failure() uses get_dev_pagemap() to lookup ZONE_DEVICE pages,
however that mapping may contain data pages and metadata raw pfns.
Introduce pgmap_pfn_valid() to delineate the 2 types and fail the
handling of raw metadata pfns.
This patch (of 4);
pfn_to_online_page() is already too large to be a macro or an inline
function. In anticipation of further logic changes / growth, move it out
of line.
No functional change, just code movement.

Byte-accounted items are used for slab object accounting at the cgroup
level, because the objects in a slab page can belong to different cgroups.
At the global level these items always change in multiples of whole slab
pages. The vmstat code exploits this and stores these items as pages
internally, which allows for more compact per-cpu data.
This optimization isn't self-evident from the asserts and the division in
the stat update functions. Provide the reader with some context.

On NOHZ, the periodic vmstat flushers on each CPU can go to sleep and
won't wake up until stat changes are detected in the per-cpu deltas of the
zone vmstat counters.
In commit 75ef71840539 ("mm, vmstat: add infrastructure for per-node
vmstats") per-node counters were introduced, and subsequently most stats
were moved from the zone to the node level. However, the node counters
weren't added to the NOHZ wakeup detection.
In theory this can cause per-cpu errors to remain in the user-reported
stats indefinitely. In practice this only affects a handful of sub
counters (file_mapped, dirty and writeback e.g.) because other page state
changes at the node level likely involve a change at the zone level as
well (alloc and free, lru ops). Also, nobody has complained.
Fix it up for completeness: wake up vmstat refreshing on node changes.
Also remove the BUILD_BUG_ONs that assert counter size; we haven't relied
on it since we added sizeof() to the range calculation in commit
13c9aaf7fa01 ("mm/vmstat.c: fix NUMA statistics updates").

Let's count the number of CMA pages per zone and print them in
/proc/zoneinfo.
Having access to the total number of CMA pages per zone is helpful for
debugging purposes to know where exactly the CMA pages ended up, and to
figure out how many pages of a zone might behave differently, even after
some of these pages might already have been allocated.
As one example, CMA pages part of a kernel zone cannot be used for
ordinary kernel allocations but instead behave more like ZONE_MOVABLE.
For now, we are only able to get the global nr+free cma pages from
/proc/meminfo and the free cma pages per zone from /proc/zoneinfo.
Example after this patch when booting a 6 GiB QEMU VM with
"hugetlb_cma=2G":
# cat /proc/zoneinfo | grep cma
cma 0
nr_free_cma 0
cma 0
nr_free_cma 0
cma 524288
nr_free_cma 493016
cma 0
cma 0
# cat /proc/meminfo | grep Cma
CmaTotal: 2097152 kB
CmaFree: 1972064 kB
Note: We print even without CONFIG_CMA, just like "nr_free_cma"; this way,
one can be sure when spotting "cma 0", that there are definetly no
CMA pages located in a zone.

Right now, if activation fails, we might already have exposed some pages
to the buddy for CMA use (although they will never get actually used by
CMA), and some pages won't be exposed to the buddy at all.
Let's check for "single zone" early and on error, don't expose any pages
for CMA use - instead, expose them to the buddy available for any use.
Simply call free_reserved_page() on every single page - easier than going
via free_reserved_area(), converting back and forth between pfns and virt
addresses.
In addition, make sure to fixup totalcma_pages properly.

Currently cma areas without a fixed base are allocated close to the end of
the node. This placement is sub-optimal because of compaction: it brings
pages into the cma area. In particular, it can bring in hot executable
pages, even if there is a plenty of free memory on the machine. This
results in cma allocation failures.
Instead let's place cma areas close to the beginning of a node. In this
case the compaction will help to free cma areas, resulting in better cma
allocation success rates.
If there is enough memory let's try to allocate bottom-up starting with
4GB to exclude any possible interference with DMA32. On smaller machines
or in a case of a failure, stick with the old behavior.

Patch series "mm,thp,shm: limit shmem THP alloc gfp_mask", v6.
The allocation flags of anonymous transparent huge pages can be controlled
through the files in /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag, which can
help the system from getting bogged down in the page reclaim and
compaction code when many THPs are getting allocated simultaneously.
However, the gfp_mask for shmem THP allocations were not limited by those
configuration settings, and some workloads ended up with all CPUs stuck on
the LRU lock in the page reclaim code, trying to allocate dozens of THPs
simultaneously.
This patch applies the same configurated limitation of THPs to shmem
hugepage allocations, to prevent that from happening.
This way a THP defrag setting of "never" or "defer+madvise" will result in
quick allocation failures without direct reclaim when no 2MB free pages
are available.
With this patch applied, THP allocations for tmpfs will be a little more
aggressive than today for files mmapped with MADV_HUGEPAGE, and a little
less aggressive for files that are not mmapped or mapped without that
flag.

Controlling the gfp_mask of THP allocations through the knobs in sysfs

tries to allocate THPs at fault time, and how much the application may end
up stalling attempting those allocations.
