2018-06-02mm: fix the NULL mapping case in __isolate_lru_page()Hugh Dickins
George Boole would have noticed a slight error in 4.16 commit 69d763fc6d3a ("mm: pin address_space before dereferencing it while isolating an LRU page"). Fix it, to match both the comment above it, and the original behaviour. Although anonymous pages are not marked PageDirty at first, we have an old habit of calling SetPageDirty when a page is removed from swap cache: so there's a category of ex-swap pages that are easily migratable, but were inadvertently excluded from compaction's async migration in 4.16.

2018-06-02mm/huge_memory.c: __split_huge_page() use atomic ClearPageDirty()Hugh Dickins
Swapping load on huge=always tmpfs (with khugepaged tuned up to be very eager, but I'm not sure that is relevant) soon hung uninterruptibly, waiting for page lock in shmem_getpage_gfp()'s find_lock_entry(), most often when "cp -a" was trying to write to a smallish file. Debug showed that the page in question was not locked, and page->mapping NULL by now, but page->index consistent with having been in a huge page before. Reproduced in minutes on a 4.15 kernel, even with 4.17's 605ca5ede764 ("mm/huge_memory.c: reorder operations in __split_huge_page_tail()") added in; but took hours to reproduce on a 4.17 kernel (no idea why). The culprit proved to be the __ClearPageDirty() on tails beyond i_size in __split_huge_page(): the non-atomic __bitoperation may have been safe when 4.8's baa355fd3314 ("thp: file pages support for split_huge_page()") introduced it, but liable to erase PageWaiters after 4.10's 62906027091f ("mm: add PageWaiters indicating tasks are waiting for a page bit").

2018-05-25kasan: fix memory hotplug during bootDavid Hildenbrand
Using module_init() is wrong. E.g. ACPI adds and onlines memory before our memory notifier gets registered. This makes sure that ACPI memory detected during boot up will not result in a kernel crash. Easily reproducible with QEMU, just specify a DIMM when starting up.

2018-05-25mm/memory_hotplug: fix leftover use of struct page during hotplugJonathan Cameron
The case of a new numa node got missed in avoiding using the node info from page_struct during hotplug. In this path we have a call to register_mem_sect_under_node (which allows us to specify it is hotplug so don't change the node), via link_mem_sections which unfortunately does not. Fix is to pass check_nid through link_mem_sections as well and disable it in the new numa node path. Note the bug only 'sometimes' manifests depending on what happens to be in the struct page structures - there are lots of them and it only needs to match one of them. The result of the bug is that (with a new memory only node) we never successfully call register_mem_sect_under_node so don't get the memory associated with the node in sysfs and meminfo for the node doesn't report it. It came up whilst testing some arm64 hotplug patches, but appears to be universal. Whilst I'm triggering it by removing then reinserting memory to a node with no other elements (thus making the node disappear then appear again), it appears it would happen on hotplugging memory where there was none before and it doesn't seem to be related the arm64 patches. These patches call __add_pages (where most of the issue was fixed by Pavel's patch). If there is a node at the time of the __add_pages call then all is well as it calls register_mem_sect_under_node from there with check_nid set to false. Without a node that function returns having not done the sysfs related stuff as there is no node to use. This is expected but it is the resulting path that fails... Exact path to the problem is as follows: mm/memory_hotplug.c: add_memory_resource() The node is not online so we enter the 'if (new_node)' twice, on the second such block there is a call to link_mem_sections which calls into drivers/node.c: link_mem_sections() which calls drivers/node.c: register_mem_sect_under_node() which calls get_nid_for_pfn and keeps trying until the output of that matches the expected node (passed all the way down from add_memory_resource) It is effectively the same fix as the one referred to in the fixes tag just in the code path for a new node where the comments point out we have to rerun the link creation because it will have failed in register_new_memory (as there was no node at the time). (actually that comment is wrong now as we don't have register_new_memory any more it got renamed to hotplug_memory_register in Pavel's patch).

Node1 will surely contain memmaps on the same node and those would prevent offlining to succeed. So this is arguably a configuration issue. Although one could argue that we should be more clever and rule early allocations from the zone movable. This would be correct but probably not worth the effort considering what a hack movablecore is. Anyway, We could do better for those cases though. We rely on start_isolate_page_range resp. has_unmovable_pages to do their job. The first one isolates the whole range to be offlined so that we do not allocate from it anymore and the later makes sure we are not stumbling over non-migrateable pages. has_unmovable_pages is overly optimistic, however. It doesn't check all the pages if we are withing zone_movable because we rely that those pages will be always migrateable. As it turns out we are still not perfect there. While bootmem pages in zonemovable sound like a clear bug which should be fixed let's remove the optimization for now and warn if we encounter unmovable pages in zone_movable in the meantime. That should help for now at least. Btw. this wasn't a real problem until commit 72b39cfc4d75 ("mm, memory_hotplug: do not fail offlining too early") because we used to have a small number of retries and then failed. This turned out to be too fragile though.

2018-05-25mm/kasan: don't vfree() nonexistent vm_areaAndrey Ryabinin
KASAN uses different routines to map shadow for hot added memory and memory obtained in boot process. Attempt to offline memory onlined by normal boot process leads to this: Trying to vfree() nonexistent vm area (000000005d3b34b9) WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 13215 at mm/vmalloc.c:1525 __vunmap+0x147/0x190 Call Trace: kasan_mem_notifier+0xad/0xb9 notifier_call_chain+0x166/0x260 __blocking_notifier_call_chain+0xdb/0x140 __offline_pages+0x96a/0xb10 memory_subsys_offline+0x76/0xc0 device_offline+0xb8/0x120 store_mem_state+0xfa/0x120 kernfs_fop_write+0x1d5/0x320 __vfs_write+0xd4/0x530 vfs_write+0x105/0x340 SyS_write+0xb0/0x140 Obviously we can't call vfree() to free memory that wasn't allocated via vmalloc(). Use find_vm_area() to see if we can call vfree(). Unfortunately it's a bit tricky to properly unmap and free shadow allocated during boot, so we'll have to keep it. If memory will come online again that shadow will be reused. Matthew asked: how can you call vfree() on something that isn't a vmalloc address? vfree() is able to free any address returned by __vmalloc_node_range(). And __vmalloc_node_range() gives you any address you ask. It doesn't have to be an address in [VMALLOC_START, VMALLOC_END] range. That's also how the module_alloc()/module_memfree() works on architectures that have designated area for modules.

2018-05-19mmap: relax file size limit for regular filesLinus Torvalds
Commit be83bbf80682 ("mmap: introduce sane default mmap limits") was introduced to catch problems in various ad-hoc character device drivers doing mmap and getting the size limits wrong. In the process, it used "known good" limits for the normal cases of mapping regular files and block device drivers. It turns out that the "s_maxbytes" limit was less "known good" than I thought. In particular, /proc doesn't set it, but exposes one regular file to mmap: /proc/vmcore. As a result, that file got limited to the default MAX_INT s_maxbytes value. This went unnoticed for a while, because apparently the only thing that needs it is the s390 kernel zfcpdump, but there might be other tools that use this too. Vasily suggested just changing s_maxbytes for all of /proc, which isn't wrong, but makes me nervous at this stage. So instead, just make the new mmap limit always be MAX_LFS_FILESIZE for regular files, which won't affect anything else. It wasn't the regular file case I was worried about. I'd really prefer for maxsize to have been per-inode, but that is not how things are today.

2018-05-18mm: don't allow deferred pages with NEED_PER_CPU_KMPavel Tatashin
It is unsafe to do virtual to physical translations before mm_init() is called if struct page is needed in order to determine the memory section number (see SECTION_IN_PAGE_FLAGS). This is because only in mm_init() we initialize struct pages for all the allocated memory when deferred struct pages are used. My recent fix in commit c9e97a1997 ("mm: initialize pages on demand during boot") exposed this problem, because it greatly reduced number of pages that are initialized before mm_init(), but the problem existed even before my fix, as Fengguang Wu found. Below is a more detailed explanation of the problem. We initialize struct pages in four places: 1. Early in boot a small set of struct pages is initialized to fill the first section, and lower zones. 2. During mm_init() we initialize "struct pages" for all the memory that is allocated, i.e reserved in memblock. 3. Using on-demand logic when pages are allocated after mm_init call (when memblock is finished) 4. After smp_init() when the rest free deferred pages are initialized. The problem occurs if we try to do va to phys translation of a memory between steps 1 and 2. Because we have not yet initialized struct pages for all the reserved pages, it is inherently unsafe to do va to phys if the translation itself requires access of "struct page" as in case of this combination: CONFIG_SPARSE && !CONFIG_SPARSE_VMEMMAP The following path exposes the problem: start_kernel() trap_init() setup_cpu_entry_areas() setup_cpu_entry_area(cpu) get_cpu_gdt_paddr(cpu) per_cpu_ptr_to_phys(addr) pcpu_addr_to_page(addr) virt_to_page(addr) pfn_to_page(__pa(addr) >> PAGE_SHIFT) We disable this path by not allowing NEED_PER_CPU_KM with deferred struct pages feature.

2018-05-17proc: do not access cmdline nor environ from file-backed areasWilly Tarreau
proc_pid_cmdline_read() and environ_read() directly access the target process' VM to retrieve the command line and environment. If this process remaps these areas onto a file via mmap(), the requesting process may experience various issues such as extra delays if the underlying device is slow to respond. Let's simply refuse to access file-backed areas in these functions. For this we add a new FOLL_ANON gup flag that is passed to all calls to access_remote_vm(). The code already takes care of such failures (including unmapped areas). Accesses via /proc/pid/mem were not changed though. This was assigned CVE-2018-1120. Note for stable backports: the patch may apply to kernels prior to 4.11 but silently miss one location; it must be checked that no call to access_remote_vm() keeps zero as the last argument.

2018-05-11mm, oom: fix concurrent munlock and oom reaper unmap, v3David Rientjes
Since exit_mmap() is done without the protection of mm->mmap_sem, it is possible for the oom reaper to concurrently operate on an mm until MMF_OOM_SKIP is set. This allows munlock_vma_pages_all() to concurrently run while the oom reaper is operating on a vma. Since munlock_vma_pages_range() depends on clearing VM_LOCKED from vm_flags before actually doing the munlock to determine if any other vmas are locking the same memory, the check for VM_LOCKED in the oom reaper is racy. This is especially noticeable on architectures such as powerpc where clearing a huge pmd requires serialize_against_pte_lookup(). If the pmd is zapped by the oom reaper during follow_page_mask() after the check for pmd_none() is bypassed, this ends up deferencing a NULL ptl or a kernel oops. Fix this by manually freeing all possible memory from the mm before doing the munlock and then setting MMF_OOM_SKIP. The oom reaper can not run on the mm anymore so the munlock is safe to do in exit_mmap(). It also matches the logic that the oom reaper currently uses for determining when to set MMF_OOM_SKIP itself, so there's no new risk of excessive oom killing. This issue fixes CVE-2018-1000200.

2018-05-11mm: sections are not offlined during memory hotremovePavel Tatashin
Memory hotplug and hotremove operate with per-block granularity. If the machine has a large amount of memory (more than 64G), the size of a memory block can span multiple sections. By mistake, during hotremove we set only the first section to offline state. The bug was discovered because kernel selftest started to fail: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180423011247.GK5563@yexl-desktop After commit, "mm/memory_hotplug: optimize probe routine". But, the bug is older than this commit. In this optimization we also added a check for sections to be in a proper state during hotplug operation.

2018-05-11mmap: introduce sane default mmap limitsLinus Torvalds
The internal VM "mmap()" interfaces are based on the mmap target doing everything using page indexes rather than byte offsets, because traditionally (ie 32-bit) we had the situation that the byte offset didn't fit in a register. So while the mmap virtual address was limited by the word size of the architecture, the backing store was not. So we're basically passing "pgoff" around as a page index, in order to be able to describe backing store locations that are much bigger than the word size (think files larger than 4GB etc). But while this all makes a ton of sense conceptually, we've been dogged by various drivers that don't really understand this, and internally work with byte offsets, and then try to work with the page index by turning it into a byte offset with "pgoff << PAGE_SHIFT". Which obviously can overflow. Adding the size of the mapping to it to get the byte offset of the end of the backing store just exacerbates the problem, and if you then use this overflow-prone value to check various limits of your device driver mmap capability, you're just setting yourself up for problems. The correct thing for drivers to do is to do their limit math in page indices, the way the interface is designed. Because the generic mmap code _does_ test that the index doesn't overflow, since that's what the mmap code really cares about. HOWEVER. Finding and fixing various random drivers is a sisyphean task, so let's just see if we can just make the core mmap() code do the limiting for us. Realistically, the only "big" backing stores we need to care about are regular files and block devices, both of which are known to do this properly, and which have nice well-defined limits for how much data they can access. So let's special-case just those two known cases, and then limit other random mmap users to a backing store that still fits in "unsigned long". Realistically, that's not much of a limit at all on 64-bit, and on 32-bit architectures the only worry might be the GPU drivers, which can have big physical address spaces. To make it possible for drivers like that to say that they are 64-bit clean, this patch does repurpose the "FMODE_UNSIGNED_OFFSET" bit in the file flags to allow drivers to mark their file descriptors as safe in the full 64-bit mmap address space. [ The timing for doing this is less than optimal, and this should really go in a merge window. But realistically, this needs wide testing more than it needs anything else, and being main-line is the only way to do that. So the earlier the better, even if it's outside the proper development cycle - Linus ] Cc: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Cc: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Willy Tarreau <w@1wt.eu> Cc: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2018-04-20mm/filemap.c: fix NULL pointer in page_cache_tree_insert()Matthew Wilcox
f2fs specifies the __GFP_ZERO flag for allocating some of its pages. Unfortunately, the page cache also uses the mapping's GFP flags for allocating radix tree nodes. It always masked off the __GFP_HIGHMEM flag, and masks off __GFP_ZERO in some paths, but not all. That causes radix tree nodes to be allocated with a NULL list_head, which causes backtraces like: __list_del_entry+0x30/0xd0 list_lru_del+0xac/0x1ac page_cache_tree_insert+0xd8/0x110 The __GFP_DMA and __GFP_DMA32 flags would also be able to sneak through if they are ever used. Fix them all by using GFP_RECLAIM_MASK at the innermost location, and remove it from earlier in the callchain.

2018-04-20mm: enable thp migration for shmem thpNaoya Horiguchi
My testing for the latest kernel supporting thp migration showed an infinite loop in offlining the memory block that is filled with shmem thps. We can get out of the loop with a signal, but kernel should return with failure in this case. What happens in the loop is that scan_movable_pages() repeats returning the same pfn without any progress. That's because page migration always fails for shmem thps. In memory offline code, memory blocks containing unmovable pages should be prevented from being offline targets by has_unmovable_pages() inside start_isolate_page_range(). So it's possible to change migratability for non-anonymous thps to avoid the issue, but it introduces more complex and thp-specific handling in migration code, so it might not good. So this patch is suggesting to fix the issue by enabling thp migration for shmem thp. Both of anon/shmem thp are migratable so we don't need precheck about the type of thps.

2018-04-20writeback: safer lock nestingGreg Thelen
lock_page_memcg()/unlock_page_memcg() use spin_lock_irqsave/restore() if the page's memcg is undergoing move accounting, which occurs when a process leaves its memcg for a new one that has memory.move_charge_at_immigrate set. unlocked_inode_to_wb_begin,end() use spin_lock_irq/spin_unlock_irq() if the given inode is switching writeback domains. Switches occur when enough writes are issued from a new domain. This existing pattern is thus suspicious: lock_page_memcg(page); unlocked_inode_to_wb_begin(inode, &locked); ... unlocked_inode_to_wb_end(inode, locked); unlock_page_memcg(page); If both inode switch and process memcg migration are both in-flight then unlocked_inode_to_wb_end() will unconditionally enable interrupts while still holding the lock_page_memcg() irq spinlock. This suggests the possibility of deadlock if an interrupt occurs before unlock_page_memcg(). truncate __cancel_dirty_page lock_page_memcg unlocked_inode_to_wb_begin unlocked_inode_to_wb_end <interrupts mistakenly enabled> <interrupt> end_page_writeback test_clear_page_writeback lock_page_memcg <deadlock> unlock_page_memcg Due to configuration limitations this deadlock is not currently possible because we don't mix cgroup writeback (a cgroupv2 feature) and memory.move_charge_at_immigrate (a cgroupv1 feature). If the kernel is hacked to always claim inode switching and memcg moving_account, then this script triggers lockup in less than a minute: cd /mnt/cgroup/memory mkdir a b echo 1 > a/memory.move_charge_at_immigrate echo 1 > b/memory.move_charge_at_immigrate ( echo $BASHPID > a/cgroup.procs while true; do dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/big bs=1M count=256 done ) & while true; do sync done & sleep 1h & SLEEP=$! while true; do echo $SLEEP > a/cgroup.procs echo $SLEEP > b/cgroup.procs done The deadlock does not seem possible, so it's debatable if there's any reason to modify the kernel. I suggest we should to prevent future surprises. And Wang Long said "this deadlock occurs three times in our environment", so there's more reason to apply this, even to stable.

We are reporting EPERM which doesn't make any sense and this is a result of a bug from cf5f16b23ec9 ("mm: unclutter THP migration"). do_pages_move tries to handle as many pages in one batch as possible so we queue all pages with the same node target together and that corresponds to [start, i] range which is then used to update status array. add_page_for_migration will correctly notice the zero (resp. !present) page and returns with EFAULT which gets written to the status. But if this is the last page in the array we do not update start and so the last store_status after the loop will overwrite the range of the last batch with NUMA_NO_NODE (which corresponds to EPERM). Fix this by simply bailing out from the last flush if the pagelist is empty as there is clearly nothing more to do.

2018-04-16mm,vmscan: Allow preallocating memory for register_shrinker().Tetsuo Handa
syzbot is catching so many bugs triggered by commit 9ee332d99e4d5a97 ("sget(): handle failures of register_shrinker()"). That commit expected that calling kill_sb() from deactivate_locked_super() without successful fill_super() is safe, but the reality was different; some callers assign attributes which are needed for kill_sb() after sget() succeeds. For example, [1] is a report where sb->s_mode (which seems to be either FMODE_READ | FMODE_EXCL | FMODE_WRITE or FMODE_READ | FMODE_EXCL) is not assigned unless sget() succeeds. But it does not worth complicate sget() so that register_shrinker() failure path can safely call kill_block_super() via kill_sb(). Making alloc_super() fail if memory allocation for register_shrinker() failed is much simpler. Let's avoid calling deactivate_locked_super() from sget_userns() by preallocating memory for the shrinker and making register_shrinker() in sget_userns() never fail.

2018-04-13mm, slab: reschedule cache_reap() on the same CPUVlastimil Babka
cache_reap() is initially scheduled in start_cpu_timer() via schedule_delayed_work_on(). But then the next iterations are scheduled via schedule_delayed_work(), i.e. using WORK_CPU_UNBOUND. Thus since commit ef557180447f ("workqueue: schedule WORK_CPU_UNBOUND work on wq_unbound_cpumask CPUs") there is no guarantee the future iterations will run on the originally intended cpu, although it's still preferred. I was able to demonstrate this with /sys/module/workqueue/parameters/debug_force_rr_cpu. IIUC, it may also happen due to migrating timers in nohz context. As a result, some cpu's would be calling cache_reap() more frequently and others never. This patch uses schedule_delayed_work_on() with the current cpu when scheduling the next iteration.

2018-04-13get_user_pages_fast(): return -EFAULT on access_ok failureMichael S. Tsirkin
get_user_pages_fast is supposed to be a faster drop-in equivalent of get_user_pages. As such, callers expect it to return a negative return code when passed an invalid address, and never expect it to return 0 when passed a positive number of pages, since its documentation says: * Returns number of pages pinned. This may be fewer than the number * requested. If nr_pages is 0 or negative, returns 0. If no pages * were pinned, returns -errno. When get_user_pages_fast fall back on get_user_pages this is exactly what happens. Unfortunately the implementation is inconsistent: it returns 0 if passed a kernel address, confusing callers: for example, the following is pretty common but does not appear to do the right thing with a kernel address: ret = get_user_pages_fast(addr, 1, writeable, &page); if (ret < 0) return ret; Change get_user_pages_fast to return -EFAULT when supplied a kernel address to make it match expectations. All callers have been audited for consistency with the documented semantics.

2018-04-11xen, mm: allow deferred page initialization for xen pv domainsPavel Tatashin
Juergen Gross noticed that commit f7f99100d8d ("mm: stop zeroing memory during allocation in vmemmap") broke XEN PV domains when deferred struct page initialization is enabled. This is because the xen's PagePinned() flag is getting erased from struct pages when they are initialized later in boot. Juergen fixed this problem by disabling deferred pages on xen pv domains. It is desirable, however, to have this feature available as it reduces boot time. This fix re-enables the feature for pv-dmains, and fixes the problem the following way: The fix is to delay setting PagePinned flag until struct pages for all allocated memory are initialized, i.e. until after free_all_bootmem(). A new x86_init.hyper op init_after_bootmem() is called to let xen know that boot allocator is done, and hence struct pages for all the allocated memory are now initialized. If deferred page initialization is enabled, the rest of struct pages are going to be initialized later in boot once page_alloc_init_late() is called. xen_after_bootmem() walks page table's pages and marks them pinned.

2018-04-11mm: introduce MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACEMichal Hocko
Patch series "mm: introduce MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE", v2. This has started as a follow up discussion [3][4] resulting in the runtime failure caused by hardening patch [5] which removes MAP_FIXED from the elf loader because MAP_FIXED is inherently dangerous as it might silently clobber an existing underlying mapping (e.g. stack). The reason for the failure is that some architectures enforce an alignment for the given address hint without MAP_FIXED used (e.g. for shared or file backed mappings). One way around this would be excluding those archs which do alignment tricks from the hardening [6]. The patch is really trivial but it has been objected, rightfully so, that this screams for a more generic solution. We basically want a non-destructive MAP_FIXED. The first patch introduced MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE which enforces the given address but unlike MAP_FIXED it fails with EEXIST if the given range conflicts with an existing one. The flag is introduced as a completely new one rather than a MAP_FIXED extension because of the backward compatibility. We really want a never-clobber semantic even on older kernels which do not recognize the flag. Unfortunately mmap sucks wrt flags evaluation because we do not EINVAL on unknown flags. On those kernels we would simply use the traditional hint based semantic so the caller can still get a different address (which sucks) but at least not silently corrupt an existing mapping. I do not see a good way around that. Except we won't export expose the new semantic to the userspace at all. It seems there are users who would like to have something like that. Jemalloc has been mentioned by Michael Ellerman [7] Florian Weimer has mentioned the following: : glibc ld.so currently maps DSOs without hints. This means that the kernel : will map right next to each other, and the offsets between them a completely : predictable. We would like to change that and supply a random address in a : window of the address space. If there is a conflict, we do not want the : kernel to pick a non-random address. Instead, we would try again with a : random address. John Hubbard has mentioned CUDA example : a) Searches /proc/<pid>/maps for a "suitable" region of available : VA space. "Suitable" generally means it has to have a base address : within a certain limited range (a particular device model might : have odd limitations, for example), it has to be large enough, and : alignment has to be large enough (again, various devices may have : constraints that lead us to do this). : : This is of course subject to races with other threads in the process. : : Let's say it finds a region starting at va. : : b) Next it does: : p = mmap(va, ...) : : *without* setting MAP_FIXED, of course (so va is just a hint), to : attempt to safely reserve that region. If p != va, then in most cases, : this is a failure (almost certainly due to another thread getting a : mapping from that region before we did), and so this layer now has to : call munmap(), before returning a "failure: retry" to upper layers. : : IMPROVEMENT: --> if instead, we could call this: : : p = mmap(va, ... MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE ...) : : , then we could skip the munmap() call upon failure. This : is a small thing, but it is useful here. (Thanks to Piotr : Jaroszynski and Mark Hairgrove for helping me get that detail : exactly right, btw.) : : c) After that, CUDA suballocates from p, via: : : q = mmap(sub_region_start, ... MAP_FIXED ...) : : Interestingly enough, "freeing" is also done via MAP_FIXED, and : setting PROT_NONE to the subregion. Anyway, I just included (c) for : general interest. Atomic address range probing in the multithreaded programs in general sounds like an interesting thing to me. The second patch simply replaces MAP_FIXED use in elf loader by MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE. I believe other places which rely on MAP_FIXED should follow. Actually real MAP_FIXED usages should be docummented properly and they should be more of an exception.

The main problem of this flag is, however, that it is inherently dangerous because it unmaps existing mappings covered by the requested range. This can cause silent memory corruptions. Some of them even with serious security implications. While the current semantic might be really desiderable in many cases there are others which would want to enforce the given range but rather see a failure than a silent memory corruption on a clashing range. Please note that there is no guarantee that a given range is obeyed by the mmap even when it is free - e.g. arch specific code is allowed to apply an alignment. Introduce a new MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE flag for mmap to achieve this behavior. It has the same semantic as MAP_FIXED wrt. the given address request with a single exception that it fails with EEXIST if the requested address is already covered by an existing mapping. We still do rely on get_unmaped_area to handle all the arch specific MAP_FIXED treatment and check for a conflicting vma after it returns. The flag is introduced as a completely new one rather than a MAP_FIXED extension because of the backward compatibility. We really want a never-clobber semantic even on older kernels which do not recognize the flag. Unfortunately mmap sucks wrt. flags evaluation because we do not EINVAL on unknown flags. On those kernels we would simply use the traditional hint based semantic so the caller can still get a different address (which sucks) but at least not silently corrupt an existing mapping.

2018-04-11exec: pass stack rlimit into mm layout functionsKees Cook
Patch series "exec: Pin stack limit during exec". Attempts to solve problems with the stack limit changing during exec continue to be frustrated[1][2]. In addition to the specific issues around the Stack Clash family of flaws, Andy Lutomirski pointed out[3] other places during exec where the stack limit is used and is assumed to be unchanging. Given the many places it gets used and the fact that it can be manipulated/raced via setrlimit() and prlimit(), I think the only way to handle this is to move away from the "current" view of the stack limit and instead attach it to the bprm, and plumb this down into the functions that need to know the stack limits. This series implements the approach. [1] 04e35f4495dd ("exec: avoid RLIMIT_STACK races with prlimit()") [2] 779f4e1c6c7c ("Revert "exec: avoid RLIMIT_STACK races with prlimit()"") [3] to security@kernel.org, "Subject: existing rlimit races?" This patch (of 3): Since it is possible that the stack rlimit can change externally during exec (either via another thread calling setrlimit() or another process calling prlimit()), provide a way to pass the rlimit down into the per-architecture mm layout functions so that the rlimit can stay in the bprm structure instead of sitting in the signal structure until exec is finalized.

2018-04-11kasan, slub: fix handling of kasan_slab_free hookAndrey Konovalov
The kasan_slab_free hook's return value denotes whether the reuse of a slab object must be delayed (e.g. when the object is put into memory qurantine). The current way SLUB handles this hook is by ignoring its return value and hardcoding checks similar (but not exactly the same) to the ones performed in kasan_slab_free, which is prone to making mistakes. The main difference between the hardcoded checks and the ones in kasan_slab_free is whether we want to perform a free in case when an invalid-free or a double-free was detected (we don't). This patch changes the way SLUB handles this by: 1. taking into account the return value of kasan_slab_free for each of the objects, that are being freed; 2. reconstructing the freelist of objects to exclude the ones, whose reuse must be delayed.

2018-04-11mm/thp: don't count ZONE_MOVABLE as the target for freepage reservingJoonsoo Kim
There was a regression report for "mm/cma: manage the memory of the CMA area by using the ZONE_MOVABLE" [1] and I think that it is related to this problem. CMA patchset makes the system use one more zone (ZONE_MOVABLE) and then increases min_free_kbytes. It reduces usable memory and it could cause regression. ZONE_MOVABLE only has movable pages so we don't need to keep enough freepages to avoid or deal with fragmentation. So, don't count it.

2018-04-11mm/cma: manage the memory of the CMA area by using the ZONE_MOVABLEJoonsoo Kim
Patch series "mm/cma: manage the memory of the CMA area by using the ZONE_MOVABLE", v2. 0. History This patchset is the follow-up of the discussion about the "Introduce ZONE_CMA (v7)" [1]. Please reference it if more information is needed. 1. What does this patch do? This patch changes the management way for the memory of the CMA area in the MM subsystem. Currently the memory of the CMA area is managed by the zone where their pfn is belong to. However, this approach has some problems since MM subsystem doesn't have enough logic to handle the situation that different characteristic memories are in a single zone. To solve this issue, this patch try to manage all the memory of the CMA area by using the MOVABLE zone. In MM subsystem's point of view, characteristic of the memory on the MOVABLE zone and the memory of the CMA area are the same. So, managing the memory of the CMA area by using the MOVABLE zone will not have any problem. 2. Motivation There are some problems with current approach. See following. Although these problem would not be inherent and it could be fixed without this conception change, it requires many hooks addition in various code path and it would be intrusive to core MM and would be really error-prone. Therefore, I try to solve them with this new approach. Anyway, following is the problems of the current implementation. o CMA memory utilization First, following is the freepage calculation logic in MM. - For movable allocation: freepage = total freepage - For unmovable allocation: freepage = total freepage - CMA freepage Freepages on the CMA area is used after the normal freepages in the zone where the memory of the CMA area is belong to are exhausted. At that moment that the number of the normal freepages is zero, so - For movable allocation: freepage = total freepage = CMA freepage - For unmovable allocation: freepage = 0 If unmovable allocation comes at this moment, allocation request would fail to pass the watermark check and reclaim is started. After reclaim, there would exist the normal freepages so freepages on the CMA areas would not be used. FYI, there is another attempt [2] trying to solve this problem in lkml. And, as far as I know, Qualcomm also has out-of-tree solution for this problem. Useless reclaim: There is no logic to distinguish CMA pages in the reclaim path. Hence, CMA page is reclaimed even if the system just needs the page that can be usable for the kernel allocation. Atomic allocation failure: This is also related to the fallback allocation policy for the memory of the CMA area. Consider the situation that the number of the normal freepages is *zero* since the bunch of the movable allocation requests come. Kswapd would not be woken up due to following freepage calculation logic. - For movable allocation: freepage = total freepage = CMA freepage If atomic unmovable allocation request comes at this moment, it would fails due to following logic. - For unmovable allocation: freepage = total freepage - CMA freepage = 0 It was reported by Aneesh [3]. Useless compaction: Usual high-order allocation request is unmovable allocation request and it cannot be served from the memory of the CMA area. In compaction, migration scanner try to migrate the page in the CMA area and make high-order page there. As mentioned above, it cannot be usable for the unmovable allocation request so it's just waste. 3. Current approach and new approach Current approach is that the memory of the CMA area is managed by the zone where their pfn is belong to. However, these memory should be distinguishable since they have a strong limitation. So, they are marked as MIGRATE_CMA in pageblock flag and handled specially. However, as mentioned in section 2, the MM subsystem doesn't have enough logic to deal with this special pageblock so many problems raised. New approach is that the memory of the CMA area is managed by the MOVABLE zone. MM already have enough logic to deal with special zone like as HIGHMEM and MOVABLE zone. So, managing the memory of the CMA area by the MOVABLE zone just naturally work well because constraints for the memory of the CMA area that the memory should always be migratable is the same with the constraint for the MOVABLE zone. There is one side-effect for the usability of the memory of the CMA area. The use of MOVABLE zone is only allowed for a request with GFP_HIGHMEM && GFP_MOVABLE so now the memory of the CMA area is also only allowed for this gfp flag. Before this patchset, a request with GFP_MOVABLE can use them. IMO, It would not be a big issue since most of GFP_MOVABLE request also has GFP_HIGHMEM flag. For example, file cache page and anonymous page. However, file cache page for blockdev file is an exception. Request for it has no GFP_HIGHMEM flag. There is pros and cons on this exception. In my experience, blockdev file cache pages are one of the top reason that causes cma_alloc() to fail temporarily. So, we can get more guarantee of cma_alloc() success by discarding this case. Note that there is no change in admin POV since this patchset is just for internal implementation change in MM subsystem. Just one minor difference for admin is that the memory stat for CMA area will be printed in the MOVABLE zone. That's all. 4.

2018-04-11mm/page_alloc: don't reserve ZONE_HIGHMEM for ZONE_MOVABLE requestJoonsoo Kim
Freepage on ZONE_HIGHMEM doesn't work for kernel memory so it's not that important to reserve. When ZONE_MOVABLE is used, this problem would theorectically cause to decrease usable memory for GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE allocation request which is mainly used for page cache and anon page allocation. So, fix it by setting 0 to sysctl_lowmem_reserve_ratio[ZONE_HIGHMEM]. And, defining sysctl_lowmem_reserve_ratio array by MAX_NR_ZONES - 1 size makes code complex. For example, if there is highmem system, following reserve ratio is activated for *NORMAL ZONE* which would be easyily misleading people. #ifdef CONFIG_HIGHMEM 32 #endif This patch also fixes this situation by defining sysctl_lowmem_reserve_ratio array by MAX_NR_ZONES and place "#ifdef" to right place.

2018-04-11mm: unclutter THP migrationMichal Hocko
THP migration is hacked into the generic migration with rather surprising semantic. The migration allocation callback is supposed to check whether the THP can be migrated at once and if that is not the case then it allocates a simple page to migrate. unmap_and_move then fixes that up by spliting the THP into small pages while moving the head page to the newly allocated order-0 page. Remaning pages are moved to the LRU list by split_huge_page. The same happens if the THP allocation fails. This is really ugly and error prone [1]. I also believe that split_huge_page to the LRU lists is inherently wrong because all tail pages are not migrated. Some callers will just work around that by retrying (e.g. memory hotplug). There are other pfn walkers which are simply broken though. e.g. madvise_inject_error will migrate head and then advances next pfn by the huge page size. do_move_page_to_node_array, queue_pages_range (migrate_pages, mbind), will simply split the THP before migration if the THP migration is not supported then falls back to single page migration but it doesn't handle tail pages if the THP migration path is not able to allocate a fresh THP so we end up with ENOMEM and fail the whole migration which is a questionable behavior. Page compaction doesn't try to migrate large pages so it should be immune. This patch tries to unclutter the situation by moving the special THP handling up to the migrate_pages layer where it actually belongs. We simply split the THP page into the existing list if unmap_and_move fails with ENOMEM and retry. So we will _always_ migrate all THP subpages and specific migrate_pages users do not have to deal with this case in a special way.

2018-04-11mm, migrate: remove reason argument from new_page_tMichal Hocko
No allocation callback is using this argument anymore. new_page_node used to use this parameter to convey node_id resp. migration error up to move_pages code (do_move_page_to_node_array). The error status never made it into the final status field and we have a better way to communicate node id to the status field now. All other allocation callbacks simply ignored the argument so we can drop it finally.

2018-04-11mm, numa: rework do_pages_moveMichal Hocko
Patch series "unclutter thp migration" Motivation: THP migration is hacked into the generic migration with rather surprising semantic. The migration allocation callback is supposed to check whether the THP can be migrated at once and if that is not the case then it allocates a simple page to migrate. unmap_and_move then fixes that up by splitting the THP into small pages while moving the head page to the newly allocated order-0 page. Remaining pages are moved to the LRU list by split_huge_page. The same happens if the THP allocation fails. This is really ugly and error prone [2].

There are other pfn walkers which are simply broken though. e.g. madvise_inject_error will migrate head and then advances next pfn by the huge page size. do_move_page_to_node_array, queue_pages_range (migrate_pages, mbind), will simply split the THP before migration if the THP migration is not supported then falls back to single page migration but it doesn't handle tail pages if the THP migration path is not able to allocate a fresh THP so we end up with ENOMEM and fail the whole migration which is a questionable behavior. Page compaction doesn't try to migrate large pages so it should be immune. The first patch reworks do_pages_move which relies on a very ugly calling semantic when the return status is pushed to the migration path via private pointer. It uses pre allocated fixed size batching to achieve that. We simply cannot do the same if a THP is to be split during the migration path which is done in the patch 3. Patch 2 is follow up cleanup which removes the mentioned return status calling convention ugliness. On a side note: There are some semantic issues I have encountered on the way when working on patch 1 but I am not addressing them here. E.g. trying to move THP tail pages will result in either success or EBUSY (the later one more likely once we isolate head from the LRU list). Hugetlb reports EACCESS on tail pages. Some errors are reported via status parameter but migration failures are not even though the original `reason' argument suggests there was an intention to do so. From a quick look into git history this never worked. I have tried to keep the semantic unchanged. Then there is a relatively minor thing that the page isolation might fail because of pages not being on the LRU - e.g. because they are sitting on the per-cpu LRU caches. Easily fixable. This patch (of 3): do_pages_move is supposed to move user defined memory (an array of addresses) to the user defined numa nodes (an array of nodes one for each address). The user provided status array then contains resulting numa node for each address or an error. The semantic of this function is little bit confusing because only some errors are reported back. Notably migrate_pages error is only reported via the return value. This patch doesn't try to address these semantic nuances but rather change the underlying implementation. Currently we are processing user input (which can be really large) in batches which are stored to a temporarily allocated page. Each address is resolved to its struct page and stored to page_to_node structure along with the requested target numa node. The array of these structures is then conveyed down the page migration path via private argument. new_page_node then finds the corresponding structure and allocates the proper target page. What is the problem with the current implementation and why to change it? Apart from being quite ugly it also doesn't cope with unexpected pages showing up on the migration list inside migrate_pages path. That doesn't happen currently but the follow up patch would like to make the thp migration code more clear and that would need to split a THP into the list for some cases. How does the new implementation work? Well, instead of batching into a fixed size array we simply batch all pages that should be migrated to the same node and isolate all of them into a linked list which doesn't require any additional storage. This should work reasonably well because page migration usually migrates larger ranges of memory to a specific node. So the common case should work equally well as the current implementation. Even if somebody constructs an input where the target numa nodes would be interleaved we shouldn't see a large performance impact because page migration alone doesn't really benefit from batching. mmap_sem batching for the lookup is quite questionable and isolate_lru_page which would benefit from batching is not using it even in the current implementation.

syzbot has triggered a NULL ptr dereference when allocation fault injection enforces a failure and alloc_mem_cgroup_per_node_info initializes memcg->nodeinfo only half way through. But __mem_cgroup_free still tries to free all per-node data and dereferences pn->lruvec_stat_cpu unconditioanlly even if the specific per-node data hasn't been initialized. The bug is quite unlikely to hit because small allocations do not fail and we would need quite some numa nodes to make struct mem_cgroup_per_node large enough to cross the costly order.

2018-04-11swap: divide-by-zero when zero length swap file on ssdTom Abraham
Calling swapon() on a zero length swap file on SSD can lead to a divide-by-zero. Although creating such files isn't possible with mkswap and they woud be considered invalid, it would be better for the swapon code to be more robust and handle this condition gracefully (return -EINVAL). Especially since the fix is small and straightforward. To help with wear leveling on SSD, the swapon syscall calculates a random position in the swap file using modulo p->highest_bit, which is set to maxpages - 1 in read_swap_header. If the swap file is zero length, read_swap_header sets maxpages=1 and last_page=0, resulting in p->highest_bit=0 and we divide-by-zero when we modulo p->highest_bit in swapon syscall. This can be prevented by having read_swap_header return zero if last_page is zero.

2018-04-11mm: memcg: make sure memory.events is uptodate when waking pollersJohannes Weiner
Commit a983b5ebee57 ("mm: memcontrol: fix excessive complexity in memory.stat reporting") added per-cpu drift to all memory cgroup stats and events shown in memory.stat and memory.events. For memory.stat this is acceptable. But memory.events issues file notifications, and somebody polling the file for changes will be confused when the counters in it are unchanged after a wakeup. Luckily, the events in memory.events - MEMCG_LOW, MEMCG_HIGH, MEMCG_MAX, MEMCG_OOM - are sufficiently rare and high-level that we don't need per-cpu buffering for them: MEMCG_HIGH and MEMCG_MAX would be the most frequent, but they're counting invocations of reclaim, which is a complex operation that touches many shared cachelines. This splits memory.events from the generic VM events and tracks them in their own, unbuffered atomic counters. That's also cleaner, as it eliminates the ugly enum nesting of VM and cgroup events.
