The inactive file list should still be large enough to contain readahead windows and freshly written file data, but it no longer is the only source for detecting multiple accesses to file pages. The workingset refault measurement code causes recently evicted file pages that get accessed again after a shorter interval to be promoted directly to the active list. With that mechanism in place, we can afford to (on a larger system) dedicate more memory to the active file list, so we can actually cache more of the frequently used file pages in memory, and not have them pushed out by streaming writes, once-used streaming file reads, etc. This can help things like database workloads, where only half the page cache can currently be used to cache the database working set. This patch automatically increases that fraction on larger systems, using the same ratio that has already been used for anonymous memory.

An important function for cpusets is cpuset_node_allowed(), which optimizes on the fact if there's a single root CPU set, it must be trivially allowed. But the check "nr_cpusets() <= 1" doesn't use the cpusets_enabled_key static key the right way where static keys eliminate branching overhead with jump labels. This patch converts it so that static key is used properly. It's also switched to the new static key API and the checking functions are converted to return bool instead of int. We also provide a new variant __cpuset_zone_allowed() which expects that the static key check was already done and they key was enabled. This is needed for get_page_from_freelist() where we want to also avoid the relatively slower check when ALLOC_CPUSET is not set in alloc_flags. The impact on the page allocator microbenchmark is less than expected but the cleanup in itself is worthwhile. 4.6.0-rc2 4.6.0-rc2 multcheck-v1r20 cpuset-v1r20 Min alloc-odr0-1 348.00 ( 0.00%) 348.00 ( 0.00%) Min alloc-odr0-2 254.00 ( 0.00%) 254.00 ( 0.00%) Min alloc-odr0-4 213.00 ( 0.00%) 213.00 ( 0.00%) Min alloc-odr0-8 186.00 ( 0.00%) 183.00 ( 1.61%) Min alloc-odr0-16 173.00 ( 0.00%) 171.00 ( 1.16%) Min alloc-odr0-32 166.00 ( 0.00%) 163.00 ( 1.81%) Min alloc-odr0-64 162.00 ( 0.00%) 159.00 ( 1.85%) Min alloc-odr0-128 160.00 ( 0.00%) 157.00 ( 1.88%) Min alloc-odr0-256 169.00 ( 0.00%) 166.00 ( 1.78%) Min alloc-odr0-512 180.00 ( 0.00%) 180.00 ( 0.00%) Min alloc-odr0-1024 188.00 ( 0.00%) 187.00 ( 0.53%) Min alloc-odr0-2048 194.00 ( 0.00%) 193.00 ( 0.52%) Min alloc-odr0-4096 199.00 ( 0.00%) 198.00 ( 0.50%) Min alloc-odr0-8192 202.00 ( 0.00%) 201.00 ( 0.50%) Min alloc-odr0-16384 203.00 ( 0.00%) 202.00 ( 0.49%) Signed-off-by: NVlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: NMel Gorman <mgorman@techsingularity.net> Acked-by: NZefan Li <lizefan@huawei.com> Cc: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

The page allocator iterates through a zonelist for zones that match the addressing limitations and nodemask of the caller but many allocations will not be restricted. Despite this, there is always functional call overhead which builds up. This patch inlines the optimistic basic case and only calls the iterator function for the complex case. A hindrance was the fact that cpuset_current_mems_allowed is used in the fastpath as the allowed nodemask even though all nodes are allowed on most systems. The patch handles this by only considering cpuset_current_mems_allowed if a cpuset exists. As well as being faster in the fast-path, this removes some junk in the slowpath.

If either the current task is already killed or PF_EXITING or a selected task is PF_EXITING then the oom killer is suppressed and so is the oom reaper. This patch adds try_oom_reaper which checks the given task and queues it for the oom reaper if that is safe to be done meaning that the task doesn't share the mm with an alive process. This might help to release the memory pressure while the task tries to exit.

Provide /proc/sys/vm/stat_refresh to force an immediate update of per-cpu into global vmstats: useful to avoid a sleep(2) or whatever before checking counts when testing. Originally added to work around a bug which left counts stranded indefinitely on a cpu going idle (an inaccuracy magnified when small below-batch numbers represent "huge" amounts of memory), but I believe that bug is now fixed: nonetheless, this is still a useful knob. Its schedule_on_each_cpu() is probably too expensive just to fold into reading /proc/meminfo itself: give this mode 0600 to prevent abuse. Allow a write or a read to do the same: nothing to read, but "grep -h Shmem /proc/sys/vm/stat_refresh /proc/meminfo" is convenient. Oh, and since global_page_state() itself is careful to disguise any underflow as 0, hack in an "Invalid argument" and pr_warn() if a counter is negative after the refresh - this helped to fix a misaccounting of NR_ISOLATED_FILE in my migration code. But on recent kernels, I find that NR_ALLOC_BATCH and NR_PAGES_SCANNED often go negative some of the time. I have not yet worked out why, but have no evidence that it's actually harmful.

Make a few cleanups in mm/shmem.c, before going on to complicate it. shmem_alloc_page() will become more complicated: we can't afford to to have that complication duplicated between a CONFIG_NUMA version and a !CONFIG_NUMA version, so rearrange the #ifdef'ery there to yield a single shmem_swapin() and a single shmem_alloc_page(). Yes, it's a shame to inflict the horrid pseudo-vma on non-NUMA configurations, but eliminating it is a larger cleanup: I have an alloc_pages_mpol() patchset not yet ready - mpol handling is subtle and bug-prone, and changed yet again since my last version. Move __SetPageLocked, __SetPageSwapBacked from shmem_getpage_gfp() to shmem_alloc_page(): that SwapBacked flag will be useful in future, to help to distinguish different cases appropriately. And the SGP_DIRTY variant of SGP_CACHE is hard to understand and of little use (IIRC it dates back to when shmem_getpage() returned the page unlocked): kill it and do the necessary in shmem_file_read_iter(). But an arm64 build then complained that info may be uninitialized (where shmem_getpage_gfp() deletes a freshly alloced page beyond eof), and advancing to an "sgp <= SGP_CACHE" test jogged it back to reality.

Konstantin Khlebnikov pointed out (nearly four years ago, when lumpy reclaim was removed) that lru_size can be updated by -nr_taken once per call to isolate_lru_pages(), instead of page by page. Update it inside isolate_lru_pages(), or at its two callsites? I chose to update it at the callsites, rearranging and grouping the updates by nr_taken and nr_scanned together in both. With one exception, mem_cgroup_update_lru_size(,lru,) is then used where __mod_zone_page_state(,NR_LRU_BASE+lru,) is used; and we shall be adding some more calls in a future commit. Make the code a little smaller and simpler by incorporating stat update in lru_size update. The exception was move_active_pages_to_lru(), which aggregated the pgmoved stat update separately from the individual lru_size updates; but I still think this a simplification worth making. However, the __mod_zone_page_state is not peculiar to mem_cgroups: so better use the name update_lru_size, calls mem_cgroup_update_lru_size when CONFIG_MEMCG.

Though debug kernels have a VM_BUG_ON to help protect from misaccounting lru_size, non-debug kernels are liable to wrap it around: and then the vast unsigned long size draws page reclaim into a loop of repeatedly doing nothing on an empty list, without even a cond_resched(). That soft lockup looks confusingly like an over-busy reclaim scenario, with lots of contention on the lru_lock in shrink_inactive_list(): yet has a totally different origin. Help differentiate with a custom warning in mem_cgroup_update_lru_size(), even in non-debug kernels; and reset the size to avoid the lockup. But the particular bug which suggested this change was mine alone, and since fixed. Make it a WARN_ONCE: the first occurrence is the most informative, a flurry may follow, yet even when rate-limited little more is learnt.

When any unsupported hugepage size is specified, 'hugepagesz=' and 'hugepages=' should be ignored during command line parsing until any supported hugepage size is found. But currently incorrect number of hugepages are allocated when unsupported size is specified as it fails to ignore the 'hugepages=' command. Test case: Note that this is specific to x86 architecture. Boot the kernel with command line option 'hugepagesz=256M hugepages=X'. After boot, dmesg output shows that X number of hugepages of the size 2M is pre-allocated instead of 0. So, to handle such command line options, introduce new routine hugetlb_bad_size. The routine hugetlb_bad_size sets the global variable parsed_valid_hugepagesz. We are using parsed_valid_hugepagesz to save the state when unsupported hugepagesize is found so that we can ignore the 'hugepages=' parameters after that and then reset the variable when supported hugepage size is found. The routine hugetlb_bad_size can be called while setting 'hugepagesz=' parameter in an architecture specific code.

Attach the malloc attribute to a few allocation functions. This helps gcc generate better code by telling it that the return value doesn't alias any existing pointers (which is even more valuable given the pessimizations implied by -fno-strict-aliasing). A simple example of what this allows gcc to do can be seen by looking at the last part of drm_atomic_helper_plane_reset: plane->state = kzalloc(sizeof(*plane->state), GFP_KERNEL); if (plane->state) { plane->state->plane = plane; plane->state->rotation = BIT(DRM_ROTATE_0); } which compiles to e8 99 bf d6 ff callq ffffffff8116d540 <kmem_cache_alloc_trace> 48 85 c0 test %rax,%rax 48 89 83 40 02 00 00 mov %rax,0x240(%rbx) 74 11 je ffffffff814015c4 <drm_atomic_helper_plane_reset+0x64> 48 89 18 mov %rbx,(%rax) 48 8b 83 40 02 00 00 mov 0x240(%rbx),%rax [*] c7 40 40 01 00 00 00 movl $0x1,0x40(%rax) With this patch applied, the instruction at [*] is elided, since the store to plane->state->plane is known to not alter the value of plane->state.

gcc as far back as at least 3.04 documents the function attribute __malloc__. Add a shorthand for attaching that to a function declaration. This was also suggested by Andi Kleen way back in 2002 [1], but didn't get applied, perhaps because gcc at that time generated the exact same code with and without this attribute. This attribute tells the compiler that the return value (if non-NULL) can be assumed not to alias any other valid pointers at the time of the call. Please note that the documentation for a range of gcc versions (starting from around 4.7) contained a somewhat confusing and self-contradicting text: The malloc attribute is used to tell the compiler that a function may be treated as if any non-NULL pointer it returns cannot alias any other pointer valid when the function returns and *that the memory has undefined content*. [...] Standard functions with this property include malloc and *calloc*. (emphasis mine). The intended meaning has later been clarified [2]: This tells the compiler that a function is malloc-like, i.e., that the pointer P returned by the function cannot alias any other pointer valid when the function returns, and moreover no pointers to valid objects occur in any storage addressed by P. What this means is that we can apply the attribute to kmalloc and friends, and it is ok for the returned memory to have well-defined contents (__GFP_ZERO). But it is not ok to apply it to kmemdup(), nor to other functions which both allocate and possibly initialize the memory with existing pointers. So unless someone is doing something pretty perverted kstrdup() should also be a fine candidate.

Provides an optional config (CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_RANDOM) to randomize the SLAB freelist. The list is randomized during initialization of a new set of pages. The order on different freelist sizes is pre-computed at boot for performance. Each kmem_cache has its own randomized freelist. Before pre-computed lists are available freelists are generated dynamically. This security feature reduces the predictability of the kernel SLAB allocator against heap overflows rendering attacks much less stable. For example this attack against SLUB (also applicable against SLAB) would be affected: https://jon.oberheide.org/blog/2010/09/10/linux-kernel-can-slub-overflow/ Also, since v4.6 the freelist was moved at the end of the SLAB. It means a controllable heap is opened to new attacks not yet publicly discussed. A kernel heap overflow can be transformed to multiple use-after-free. This feature makes this type of attack harder too. To generate entropy, we use get_random_bytes_arch because 0 bits of entropy is available in the boot stage. In the worse case this function will fallback to the get_random_bytes sub API. We also generate a shift random number to shift pre-computed freelist for each new set of pages. The config option name is not specific to the SLAB as this approach will be extended to other allocators like SLUB. Performance results highlighted no major changes: Hackbench (running 90 10 times): Before average: 0.0698 After average: 0.0663 (-5.01%) slab_test 1 run on boot. Difference only seen on the 2048 size test being the worse case scenario covered by freelist randomization. New slab pages are constantly being created on the 10000 allocations.

When activating a static object we need make sure that the object is tracked in the object tracker. If it is a non-static object then the activation is illegal. In previous implementation, each subsystem need take care of this in their fixup callbacks. Actually we can put it into debugobjects core. Thus we can save duplicated code, and have *pure* fixup callbacks. To achieve this, a new callback "is_static_object" is introduced to let the type specific code decide whether a object is static or not. If yes, we take it into object tracker, otherwise give warning and invoke fixup callback. This change has paassed debugobjects selftest, and I also do some test with all debugobjects supports enabled. At last, I have a concern about the fixups that can it change the object which is in incorrect state on fixup? Because the 'addr' may not point to any valid object if a non-static object is not tracked. Then Change such object can overwrite someone's memory and cause unexpected behaviour. For example, the timer_fixup_activate bind timer to function stub_timer.

I am going to introduce debugobjects infrastructure to USB subsystem. But before this, I found the code of debugobjects could be improved. This patchset will make fixup functions return bool type instead of int. Because fixup only need report success or no. boolean is the 'real' type. This patch (of 7): The object debugging infrastructure core provides some fixup callbacks for the subsystem who use it. These callbacks are called from the debug code whenever a problem in debug_object_init is detected. And debugobjects core suppose them returns 1 when the fixup was successful, otherwise 0. So the return type is boolean. A bad thing is that debug_object_fixup use the return value for arithmetic operation. It confused me that what is the reall return type. Reading over the whole code, I found some place do use the return value incorrectly(see next patch). So why use bool type instead?

struct timespec is not y2038 safe. Even though timespec might be sufficient to represent timeouts, use struct timespec64 here as the plan is to get rid of all timespec reference in the kernel. The patch transitions the common functions: poll_select_set_timeout() and select_estimate_accuracy() to use timespec64. And, all the syscalls that use these functions are transitioned in the same patch. The restart block parameters for poll uses monotonic time. Use timespec64 here as well to assign timeout value. This parameter in the restart block need not change because this only holds the monotonic timestamp at which timeout should occur. And, unsigned long data type should be big enough for this timestamp. The system call interfaces will be handled in a separate series. Compat interfaces need not change as timespec64 is an alias to struct timespec on a 64 bit system.

Inotify instance is destroyed when all references to it are dropped. That not only means that the corresponding file descriptor needs to be closed but also that all corresponding instance marks are freed (as each mark holds a reference to the inotify instance). However marks are freed only after SRCU period ends which can take some time and thus if user rapidly creates and frees inotify instances, number of existing inotify instances can exceed max_user_instances limit although from user point of view there is always at most one existing instance. Thus inotify_init() returns EMFILE error which is hard to justify from user point of view. This problem is exposed by LTP inotify06 testcase on some machines. We fix the problem by making sure all group marks are properly freed while destroying inotify instance. We wait for SRCU period to end in that path anyway since we have to make sure there is no event being added to the instance while we are tearing down the instance. So it takes only some plumbing to allow for marks to be destroyed in that path as well and not from a dedicated work item.

This patch adds the necessary driver support for Management Firmware to configure the device/firmware with the dcbx results. Management Firmware is responsible for communicating the DCBX and driving the negotiation, but the driver has responsibility of receiving async notification and configuring the results in hw/fw. This patch also adds the dcbx support for future protocols (e.g., FCoE) as preparation to their imminent submission.

Resource flags are exposed to userspace via the sysfs "resource" file. lspci reads the sysfs file to determine resource properties. Add a "BAR Equivalent Indicator" flag so lspci can distinguish between [virtual] and [enhanced] resources. Signed-off-by: NAlex Williamson <alex.williamson@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NSean O.

This work adds a generic facility for use from eBPF JIT compilers that allows for further hardening of JIT generated images through blinding constants. In response to the original work on BPF JIT spraying published by Keegan McAllister [1], most BPF JITs were changed to make images read-only and start at a randomized offset in the page, where the rest was filled with trap instructions. We have this nowadays in x86, arm, arm64 and s390 JIT compilers. Additionally, later work also made eBPF interpreter images read only for kernels supporting DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX, that is, x86, arm, arm64 and s390 archs as well currently. This is done by default for mentioned JITs when JITing is enabled. Furthermore, we had a generic and configurable constant blinding facility on our todo for quite some time now to further make spraying harder, and first implementation since around netconf 2016. We found that for systems where untrusted users can load cBPF/eBPF code where JIT is enabled, start offset randomization helps a bit to make jumps into crafted payload harder, but in case where larger programs that cross page boundary are injected, we again have some part of the program opcodes at a page start offset. With improved guessing and more reliable payload injection, chances can increase to jump into such payload. Elena Reshetova recently wrote a test case for it [2, 3]. Moreover, eBPF comes with 64 bit constants, which can leave some more room for payloads. Note that for all this, additional bugs in the kernel are still required to make the jump (and of course to guess right, to not jump into a trap) and naturally the JIT must be enabled, which is disabled by default. For helping mitigation, the general idea is to provide an option bpf_jit_harden that admins can tweak along with bpf_jit_enable, so that for cases where JIT should be enabled for performance reasons, the generated image can be further hardened with blinding constants for unpriviledged users (bpf_jit_harden == 1), with trading off performance for these, but not for privileged ones. We also added the option of blinding for all users (bpf_jit_harden == 2), which is quite helpful for testing f.e. with test_bpf.ko. There are no further e.g. hardening levels of bpf_jit_harden switch intended, rationale is to have it dead simple to use as on/off. Since this functionality would need to be duplicated over and over for JIT compilers to use, which are already complex enough, we provide a generic eBPF byte-code level based blinding implementation, which is then just transparently JITed. JIT compilers need to make only a few changes to integrate this facility and can be migrated one by one. This option is for eBPF JITs and will be used in x86, arm64, s390 without too much effort, and soon ppc64 JITs, thus that native eBPF can be blinded as well as cBPF to eBPF migrations, so that both can be covered with a single implementation. The rule for JITs is that bpf_jit_blind_constants() must be called from bpf_int_jit_compile(), and in case blinding is disabled, we follow normally with JITing the passed program. In case blinding is enabled and we fail during the process of blinding itself, we must return with the interpreter. Similarly, in case the JITing process after the blinding failed, we return normally to the interpreter with the non-blinded code. Meaning, interpreter doesn't change in any way and operates on eBPF code as usual. For doing this pre-JIT blinding step, we need to make use of a helper/auxiliary register, here BPF_REG_AX. This is strictly internal to the JIT and not in any way part of the eBPF architecture. Just like in the same way as JITs internally make use of some helper registers when emitting code, only that here the helper register is one abstraction level higher in eBPF bytecode, but nevertheless in JIT phase. That helper register is needed since f.e. manually written program can issue loads to all registers of eBPF architecture. The core concept with the additional register is: blind out all 32 and 64 bit constants by converting BPF_K based instructions into a small sequence from K_VAL into ((RND ^ K_VAL) ^ RND). Therefore, this is transformed into: BPF_REG_AX := (RND ^ K_VAL), BPF_REG_AX ^= RND, and REG <OP> BPF_REG_AX, so actual operation on the target register is translated from BPF_K into BPF_X one that is operating on BPF_REG_AX's content. During rewriting phase when blinding, RND is newly generated via prandom_u32() for each processed instruction. 64 bit loads are split into two 32 bit loads to make translation and patching not too complex. Only basic thing required by JITs is to call the helper bpf_jit_blind_constants()/bpf_jit_prog_release_other() pair, and to map BPF_REG_AX into an unused register. Small bpf_jit_disasm extract from [2] when applied to x86 JIT: echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/core/bpf_jit_harden ffffffffa034f5e9 + <x>: [...] 39: mov $0xa8909090,%eax 3e: mov $0xa8909090,%eax 43: mov $0xa8ff3148,%eax 48: mov $0xa89081b4,%eax 4d: mov $0xa8900bb0,%eax 52: mov $0xa810e0c1,%eax 57: mov $0xa8908eb4,%eax 5c: mov $0xa89020b0,%eax [...] echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/core/bpf_jit_harden ffffffffa034f1e5 + <x>: [...] 39: mov $0xe1192563,%r10d 3f: xor $0x4989b5f3,%r10d 46: mov %r10d,%eax 49: mov $0xb8296d93,%r10d 4f: xor $0x10b9fd03,%r10d 56: mov %r10d,%eax 59: mov $0x8c381146,%r10d 5f: xor $0x24c7200e,%r10d 66: mov %r10d,%eax 69: mov $0xeb2a830e,%r10d 6f: xor $0x43ba02ba,%r10d 76: mov %r10d,%eax 79: mov $0xd9730af,%r10d 7f: xor $0xa5073b1f,%r10d 86: mov %r10d,%eax 89: mov $0x9a45662b,%r10d 8f: xor $0x325586ea,%r10d 96: mov %r10d,%eax [...] As can be seen, original constants that carry payload are hidden when enabled, actual operations are transformed from constant-based to register-based ones, making jumps into constants ineffective. Above extract/example uses single BPF load instruction over and over, but of course all instructions with constants are blinded. Performance wise, JIT with blinding performs a bit slower than just JIT and faster than interpreter case. This is expected, since we still get all the performance benefits from JITing and in normal use-cases not every single instruction needs to be blinded. Summing up all 296 test cases averaged over multiple runs from test_bpf.ko suite, interpreter was 55% slower than JIT only and JIT with blinding was 8% slower than JIT only. Since there are also some extremes in the test suite, I expect for ordinary workloads that the performance for the JIT with blinding case is even closer to JIT only case, f.e. nmap test case from suite has averaged timings in ns 29 (JIT), 35 (+ blinding), and 151 (interpreter). BPF test suite, seccomp test suite, eBPF sample code and various bigger networking eBPF programs have been tested with this and were running fine. For testing purposes, I also adapted interpreter and redirected blinded eBPF image to interpreter and also here all tests pass.
