de_thread() and __exit_signal() use signal_struct->count/notify_count for synchronization. We can simplify the code and use ->notify_count only. Instead of comparing these two counters, we can change de_thread() to set ->notify_count = nr_of_sub_threads, then change __exit_signal() to dec-and-test this counter and notify group_exit_task. Note that __exit_signal() checks "notify_count > 0" just for symmetry with exit_notify(), we could just check it is != 0.

signal_struct->count in its current form must die. - it has no reasons to be atomic_t - it looks like a reference counter, but it is not - otoh, we really need to make task->signal refcountable, just look at the extremely ugly task_rq_unlock_wait() called from __exit_signals(). - we should change the lifetime rules for task->signal, it should be pinned to task_struct. We have a lot of code which can be simplified after that. - it is not needed! while the code is correct, any usage of this counter is artificial, except fs/proc uses it correctly to show the number of threads. This series removes the usage of sig->count from exit pathes. This patch: Now that Veaceslav changed copy_signal() to use zalloc(), exit_notify() can just check notify_count < 0 to ensure the execing sub-threads needs the notification from us. No need to do other checks, notify_count != 0 must always mean ->group_exit_task != NULL is waiting for us.

__call_usermodehelper(UMH_NO_WAIT) has 2 problems: - if kernel_thread() fails, call_usermodehelper_freeinfo() is not called. - for unknown reason UMH_NO_WAIT has UMH_WAIT_PROC logic, we spawn yet another thread which waits until the user mode application exits. Change the UMH_NO_WAIT code to use ____call_usermodehelper() instead of wait_for_helper(), and do call_usermodehelper_freeinfo() unconditionally. We can rely on CLONE_VFORK, do_fork(CLONE_VFORK) until the child exits or execs. With or without this patch UMH_NO_WAIT does not report the error if kernel_thread() fails, this is correct since the caller doesn't wait for result.

1. wait_for_helper() calls allow_signal(SIGCHLD) to ensure the child can't autoreap itself. However, this means that a spurious SIGCHILD from user-space can set TIF_SIGPENDING and: - kernel_thread() or sys_wait4() can fail due to signal_pending() - worse, wait4() can fail before ____call_usermodehelper() execs or exits. In this case the caller may kfree(subprocess_info) while the child still uses this memory. Change the code to use SIG_DFL instead of magic "(void __user *)2" set by allow_signal(). This means that SIGCHLD won't be delivered, yet the child won't autoreap itsefl. The problem is minor, only root can send a signal to this kthread. 2. If sys_wait4(&ret) fails it doesn't populate "ret", in this case wait_for_helper() reports a random value from uninitialized var. With this patch sys_wait4() should never fail, but still it makes sense to initialize ret = -ECHILD so that the caller can notice the problem.

The first patch in this series introduced an init function to the call_usermodehelper api so that processes could be customized by caller. This patch takes advantage of that fact, by customizing the helper in do_coredump to create the pipe and set its core limit to one (for our recusrsion check). This lets us clean up the previous uglyness in the usermodehelper internals and factor call_usermodehelper out entirely. While I'm at it, we can also modify the helper setup to look for a core limit value of 1 rather than zero for our recursion check Signed-off-by: NNeil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Reviewed-by: NOleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

About 6 months ago, I made a set of changes to how the core-dump-to-a-pipe feature in the kernel works. We had reports of several races, including some reports of apps bypassing our recursion check so that a process that was forked as part of a core_pattern setup could infinitely crash and refork until the system crashed. We fixed those by improving our recursion checks. The new check basically refuses to fork a process if its core limit is zero, which works well. Unfortunately, I've been getting grief from maintainer of user space programs that are inserted as the forked process of core_pattern. They contend that in order for their programs (such as abrt and apport) to work, all the running processes in a system must have their core limits set to a non-zero value, to which I say 'yes'. I did this by design, and think thats the right way to do things. But I've been asked to ease this burden on user space enough times that I thought I would take a look at it. The first suggestion was to make the recursion check fail on a non-zero 'special' number, like one. That way the core collector process could set its core size ulimit to 1, and enable the kernel's recursion detection. This isn't a bad idea on the surface, but I don't like it since its opt-in, in that if a program like abrt or apport has a bug and fails to set such a core limit, we're left with a recursively crashing system again. So I've come up with this. What I've done is modify the call_usermodehelper api such that an extra parameter is added, a function pointer which will be called by the user helper task, after it forks, but before it exec's the required process. This will give the caller the opportunity to get a call back in the processes context, allowing it to do whatever it needs to to the process in the kernel prior to exec-ing the user space code. In the case of do_coredump, this callback is ues to set the core ulimit of the helper process to 1. This elimnates the opt-in problem that I had above, as it allows the ulimit for core sizes to be set to the value of 1, which is what the recursion check looks for in do_coredump. This patch: Create new function call_usermodehelper_fns() and allow it to assign both an init and cleanup function, as we'll as arbitrary data. The init function is called from the context of the forked process and allows for customization of the helper process prior to calling exec. Its return code gates the continuation of the process, or causes its exit. Also add an arbitrary data pointer to the subprocess_info struct allowing for data to be passed from the caller to the new process, and the subsequent cleanup process Also, use this patch to cleanup the cleanup function. It currently takes an argp and envp pointer for freeing, which is ugly. Lets instead just make the subprocess_info structure public, and pass that to the cleanup and init routines Signed-off-by: NNeil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Reviewed-by: NOleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Andrew Tridgell reports that aio_read(SIGEV_SIGNAL) can fail if the notification from the helper thread races with setresuid(), see http://samba.org/~tridge/junkcode/aio_uid.c This happens because check_kill_permission() doesn't permit sending a signal to the task with the different cred->xids. But there is not any security reason to check ->cred's when the task sends a signal (private or group-wide) to its sub-thread. Whatever we do, any thread can bypass all security checks and send SIGKILL to all threads, or it can block a signal SIG and do kill(gettid(), SIG) to deliver this signal to another sub-thread. Not to mention that CLONE_THREAD implies CLONE_VM. Change check_kill_permission() to avoid the credentials check when the sender and the target are from the same thread group. Also, move "cred = current_cred()" down to avoid calling get_current() twice. Note: David Howells pointed out we could relax this even more, the CLONE_SIGHAND (without CLONE_THREAD) case probably does not need these checks too. Roland said: : The glibc (libpthread) that does set*id across threads has : been in use for a while (2.3.4?), probably in distro's using kernels as old : or older than any active -stable streams.

We have observed several workloads running on multi-node systems where memory is assigned unevenly across the nodes in the system. There are numerous reasons for this but one is the round-robin rotor in cpuset_mem_spread_node(). For example, a simple test that writes a multi-page file will allocate pages on nodes 0 2 4 6 ... Odd nodes are skipped. (Sometimes it allocates on odd nodes & skips even nodes). An example is shown below. The program "lfile" writes a file consisting of 10 pages. The program then mmaps the file & uses get_mempolicy(..., MPOL_F_NODE) to determine the nodes where the file pages were allocated. The output is shown below: # ./lfile allocated on nodes: 2 4 6 0 1 2 6 0 2 There is a single rotor that is used for allocating both file pages & slab pages. Writing the file allocates both a data page & a slab page (buffer_head). This advances the RR rotor 2 nodes for each page allocated. A quick confirmation seems to confirm this is the cause of the uneven allocation: # echo 0 >/dev/cpuset/memory_spread_slab # ./lfile allocated on nodes: 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 This patch introduces a second rotor that is used for slab allocations.

FILE_MAPPED per memcg of migrated file cache is not properly updated, because our hook in page_add_file_rmap() can't know to which memcg FILE_MAPPED should be counted. Basically, this patch is for fixing the bug but includes some big changes to fix up other messes. Now, at migrating mapped file, events happen in following sequence. 1. allocate a new page. 2. get memcg of an old page. 3. charge ageinst a new page before migration. But at this point, no changes to new page's page_cgroup, no commit for the charge. (IOW, PCG_USED bit is not set.) 4. page migration replaces radix-tree, old-page and new-page. 5. page migration remaps the new page if the old page was mapped. 6. Here, the new page is unlocked. 7. memcg commits the charge for newpage, Mark the new page's page_cgroup as PCG_USED. Because "commit" happens after page-remap, we can count FILE_MAPPED at "5", because we should avoid to trust page_cgroup->mem_cgroup. if PCG_USED bit is unset. (Note: memcg's LRU removal code does that but LRU-isolation logic is used for helping it. When we overwrite page_cgroup->mem_cgroup, page_cgroup is not on LRU or page_cgroup->mem_cgroup is NULL.) We can lose file_mapped accounting information at 5 because FILE_MAPPED is updated only when mapcount changes 0->1. So we should catch it. BTW, historically, above implemntation comes from migration-failure of anonymous page. Because we charge both of old page and new page with mapcount=0, we can't catch - the page is really freed before remap. - migration fails but it's freed before remap or .....corner cases. New migration sequence with memcg is: 1. allocate a new page. 2. mark PageCgroupMigration to the old page. 3. charge against a new page onto the old page's memcg. (here, new page's pc is marked as PageCgroupUsed.) 4. page migration replaces radix-tree, page table, etc... 5. At remapping, new page's page_cgroup is now makrked as "USED" We can catch 0->1 event and FILE_MAPPED will be properly updated. And we can catch SWAPOUT event after unlock this and freeing this page by unmap() can be caught. 7. Clear PageCgroupMigration of the old page. So, FILE_MAPPED will be correctly updated. Then, for what MIGRATION flag is ? Without it, at migration failure, we may have to charge old page again because it may be fully unmapped. "charge" means that we have to dive into memory reclaim or something complated. So, it's better to avoid charge it again. Before this patch, __commit_charge() was working for both of the old/new page and fixed up all. But this technique has some racy condtion around FILE_MAPPED and SWAPOUT etc... Now, the kernel use MIGRATION flag and don't uncharge old page until the end of migration. I hope this change will make memcg's page migration much simpler. This page migration has caused several troubles. Worth to add a flag for simplification.

The other hunks are just atomic_read and atomic_set, and do not involve any read-modify-write. The use of atomic_{read,set} doesn't prevent a read/write or write/write race, so if a race were possible (I'm not saying one is), then it would still be there even with atomic_set.

This patch adds support for moving charge of file pages, which include normal file, tmpfs file and swaps of tmpfs file. It's enabled by setting bit 1 of <target cgroup>/memory.move_charge_at_immigrate. Unlike the case of anonymous pages, file pages(and swaps) in the range mmapped by the task will be moved even if the task hasn't done page fault, i.e. they might not be the task's "RSS", but other task's "RSS" that maps the same file. And mapcount of the page is ignored(the page can be moved even if page_mapcount(page) > 1). So, conditions that the page/swap should be met to be moved is that it must be in the range mmapped by the target task and it must be charged to the old cgroup.

This patch cleans up move charge code by: - define functions to handle pte for each types, and make is_target_pte_for_mc() cleaner. - instead of checking the MOVE_CHARGE_TYPE_ANON bit, define a function that checks the bit.

This adds a feature to disable oom-killer for memcg, if disabled, of course, tasks under memcg will stop. But now, we have oom-notifier for memcg. And the world around memcg is not under out-of-memory. memcg's out-of-memory just shows memcg hits limit. Then, administrator or management daemon can recover the situation by - kill some process - enlarge limit, add more swap. - migrate some tasks - remove file cache on tmps (difficult ?) Unlike oom-killer, you can take enough information before killing tasks.

Considering containers or other resource management softwares in userland, event notification of OOM in memcg should be implemented. Now, memcg has "threshold" notifier which uses eventfd, we can make use of it for oom notification. This patch adds oom notification eventfd callback for memcg. The usage is very similar to threshold notifier, but control file is memory.oom_control and no arguments other than eventfd is required. % cgroup_event_notifier /cgroup/A/memory.oom_control dummy (About cgroup_event_notifier, see Documentation/cgroup/) Signed-off-by: NKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: Daisuke Nishimura <nishimura@mxp.nes.nec.co.jp> Cc: Balbir Singh <balbir@in.ibm.com> Cc: Daisuke Nishimura <nishimura@mxp.nes.nec.co.jp> Cc: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Cc: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

memcg's oom waitqueue is a system-wide wait_queue (for handling hierarchy.) So, it's better to add custom wake function and do filtering in wake up path. This patch adds a filtering feature for waking up oom-waiters. Hierarchy is properly handled.

I recently had to recover some files from an old broken machine that was running BorderWare Document Gateway. It's basically a drop in web server for sharing files. From the look of the init process and using strings on of a few files it seems to be based on FreeBSD 3.3. The process turned out to be more difficult than I imagined, but to cut a long story short BorderWare in their wisdom use a nonstandard magic number in their UFS (ufstype=44bsd) file systems. Thus Linux refuses to mount the file systems in order to recover the data. After a bit of hunting I was able to make a quick fix to fs/ufs/super.c in order to detect the new magic number. I assume that this number is the same for all installations. It's quite easy to find out from ufs_fs.h. The superblock sits 8k into the block device and the magic number its 1372 bytes into the superblock struct. # dd if=/dev/sda5 skip=$(( 8192 + 1372 )) bs=1 count=4 2> /dev/null | hd 00000000 97 26 24 0f |.&$.| # Signed-off-by: NThomas Stewart <thomas@stewarts.org.uk> Cc: Evgeniy Dushistov <dushistov@mail.ru> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
