The lockdep code had reported the following unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- lock(s_active#228); lock(&bdev->bd_mutex/1); lock(s_active#228); lock(&bdev->bd_mutex); *** DEADLOCK *** The deadlock may happen when one task (CPU1) is trying to delete a partition in a block device and another task (CPU0) is accessing tracing sysfs file (e.g. /sys/block/dm-1/trace/act_mask) in that partition. The s_active isn't an actual lock. It is a reference count (kn->count) on the sysfs (kernfs) file. Removal of a sysfs file, however, require a wait until all the references are gone. The reference count is treated like a rwsem using lockdep instrumentation code. The fact that a thread is in the sysfs callback method or in the ioctl call means there is a reference to the opended sysfs or device file. That should prevent the underlying block structure from being removed. Instead of using bd_mutex in the block_device structure, a new blk_trace_mutex is now added to the request_queue structure to protect access to the blk_trace structure.

Currently the stack tracer calls rcu_irq_enter() to make sure RCU is watching when it records a stack trace. But if the stack tracer is triggered while tracing inside of a rcu_irq_enter(), calling rcu_irq_enter() unconditionally can be problematic. The reason for having rcu_irq_enter() in the first place has been fixed from within the saving of the stack trace code, and there's no reason for doing it in the stack tracer itself. Just remove it.

If kernel_text_address() is called when RCU is not watching, it can cause an RCU bug because is_module_text_address(), the is_kprobe_*insn_slot() and is_bpf_text_address() functions require the use of RCU. Only enable RCU if it is not currently watching before it calls is_module_text_address(). The use of rcu_nmi_enter() is used to enable RCU because kernel_text_address() can happen pretty much anywhere (like an NMI), and even from within an NMI. It is called via save_stack_trace() that can be called by any WARN() or tracing function, which can happen while RCU is not watching (for example, going to or coming from idle, or during CPU take down or bring up).

The functionality between kernel_text_address() and _kernel_text_address() is the same except that _kernel_text_address() does a little more (that function needs a rename, but that can be done another time). Instead of having duplicate code in both, simply have _kernel_text_address() calls kernel_text_address() instead. This is marked for stable because there's an RCU bug that can happen if one of these functions gets called while RCU is not watching. That fix depends on this fix to keep from having to write the fix twice. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Fixes: 0be964be ("module: Sanitize RCU usage and locking") Acked-by: NPaul E.

A number of architecture invoke rcu_irq_enter() on exception entry in order to allow RCU read-side critical sections in the exception handler when the exception is from an idle or nohz_full CPU. This works, at least unless the exception happens in an NMI handler. In that case, rcu_nmi_enter() would already have exited the extended quiescent state, which would mean that rcu_irq_enter() would (incorrectly) cause RCU to think that it is again in an extended quiescent state. This will in turn result in lockdep splats in response to later RCU read-side critical sections. This commit therefore causes rcu_irq_enter() and rcu_irq_exit() to take no action if there is an rcu_nmi_enter() in effect, thus avoiding the unscheduled return to RCU quiescent state. This in turn should make the kernel safe for on-demand RCU voyeurism.

This patch fixes a bug exhibited by the following scenario: 1. fd1 = perf_event_open with attr.config = ID1 2. attach bpf program prog1 to fd1 3. fd2 = perf_event_open with attr.config = ID1 <this will be successful> 4. user program closes fd2 and prog1 is detached from the tracepoint. 5. user program with fd1 does not work properly as tracepoint no output any more. The issue happens at step 4. Multiple perf_event_open can be called successfully, but only one bpf prog pointer in the tp_event. In the current logic, any fd release for the same tp_event will free the tp_event->prog. The fix is to free tp_event->prog only when the closing fd corresponds to the one which registered the program. Signed-off-by: NYonghong Song <yhs@fb.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

Commit 109980b8 ("bpf: don't select potentially stale ri->map from buggy xdp progs") passed the pointer to the prog itself to be loaded into r4 prior on bpf_redirect_map() helper call, so that we can store the owner into ri->map_owner out of the helper. Issue with that is that the actual address of the prog is still subject to change when subsequent rewrites occur that require slow path in bpf_prog_realloc() to alloc more memory, e.g. from patching inlining helper functions or constant blinding. Thus, we really need to take prog->aux as the address we're holding, which also works with prog clones as they share the same aux object. Instead of then fetching aux->prog during runtime, which could potentially incur cache misses due to false sharing, we are going to just use aux for comparison on the map owner. This will also keep the patchlet of the same size, and later check in xdp_map_invalid() only accesses read-only aux pointer from the prog, it's also in the same cacheline already from prior access when calling bpf_func.

Now that we have added breaks in the wait queue scan and allow bookmark on scan position, we put this logic in the wake_up_page_bit function. We can have very long page wait list in large system where multiple pages share the same wait list. We break the wake up walk here to allow other cpus a chance to access the list, and not to disable the interrupts when traversing the list for too long. This reduces the interrupt and rescheduling latency, and excessive page wait queue lock hold time.

We encountered workloads that have very long wake up list on large systems. A waker takes a long time to traverse the entire wake list and execute all the wake functions. We saw page wait list that are up to 3700+ entries long in tests of large 4 and 8 socket systems. It took 0.8 sec to traverse such list during wake up. Any other CPU that contends for the list spin lock will spin for a long time. It is a result of the numa balancing migration of hot pages that are shared by many threads. Multiple CPUs waking are queued up behind the lock, and the last one queued has to wait until all CPUs did all the wakeups. The page wait list is traversed with interrupt disabled, which caused various problems. This was the original cause that triggered the NMI watch dog timer in: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9800303/ . Only extending the NMI watch dog timer there helped. This patch bookmarks the waker's scan position in wake list and break the wake up walk, to allow access to the list before the waker resume its walk down the rest of the wait list. It lowers the interrupt and rescheduling latency. This patch also provides a performance boost when combined with the next patch to break up page wakeup list walk. We saw 22% improvement in the will-it-scale file pread2 test on a Xeon Phi system running 256 threads.

由 Michal Hocko 提交于
GFP_TEMPORARY was introduced by commit e12ba74d ("Group short-lived and reclaimable kernel allocations") along with __GFP_RECLAIMABLE. It's primary motivation was to allow users to tell that an allocation is short lived and so the allocator can try to place such allocations close together and prevent long term fragmentation. As much as this sounds like a reasonable semantic it becomes much less clear when to use the highlevel GFP_TEMPORARY allocation flag. How long is temporary? Can the context holding that memory sleep? Can it take locks? It seems there is no good answer for those questions. The current implementation of GFP_TEMPORARY is basically GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_RECLAIMABLE which in itself is tricky because basically none of the existing caller provide a way to reclaim the allocated memory. So this is rather misleading and hard to evaluate for any benefits. I have checked some random users and none of them has added the flag with a specific justification. I suspect most of them just copied from other existing users and others just thought it might be a good idea to use without any measuring. This suggests that GFP_TEMPORARY just motivates for cargo cult usage without any reasoning. I believe that our gfp flags are quite complex already and especially those with highlevel semantic should be clearly defined to prevent from confusion and abuse. Therefore I propose dropping GFP_TEMPORARY and replace all existing users to simply use GFP_KERNEL. Please note that SLAB users with shrinkers will still get __GFP_RECLAIMABLE heuristic and so they will be placed properly for memory fragmentation prevention. I can see reasons we might want some gfp flag to reflect shorterm allocations but I propose starting from a clear semantic definition and only then add users with proper justification. This was been brought up before LSF this year by Matthew [1] and it turned out that GFP_TEMPORARY really doesn't have a clear semantic. It seems to be a heuristic without any measured advantage for most (if not all) its current users. The follow up discussion has revealed that opinions on what might be temporary allocation differ a lot between developers. So rather than trying to tweak existing users into a semantic which they haven't expected I propose to simply remove the flag and start from scratch if we really need a semantic for short term allocations.

The load balancer applies cpu_active_mask to whatever sched_domains it finds, however in the case of active_balance there is a hole between setting rq->{active_balance,push_cpu} and running the stop_machine work doing the actual migration. The @push_cpu can go offline in this window, which would result in us moving a task onto a dead cpu, which is a fairly bad thing. Double check the active mask before the stop work does the migration.

On CPU hot unplug, when parking the last kthread we'll try and schedule into idle to kill the CPU. This last schedule can (and does) trigger newidle balance because at this point the sched domains are still up because of commit: 77d1dfda ("sched/topology, cpuset: Avoid spurious/wrong domain rebuilds") Obviously pulling tasks to an already offline CPU is a bad idea, and all balancing operations _should_ be subject to cpu_active_mask, make it so.

The bpf map sockmap supports adding programs via attach commands. This patch adds the detach command to keep the API symmetric and allow users to remove previously added programs. Otherwise the user would have to delete the map and re-add it to get in this state. This also adds a series of additional tests to capture detach operation and also attaching/detaching invalid prog types. API note: socks will run (or not run) programs depending on the state of the map at the time the sock is added. We do not for example walk the map and remove programs from previously attached socks.

We can potentially run into a couple of issues with the XDP bpf_redirect_map() helper. The ri->map in the per CPU storage can become stale in several ways, mostly due to misuse, where we can then trigger a use after free on the map: i) prog A is calling bpf_redirect_map(), returning XDP_REDIRECT and running on a driver not supporting XDP_REDIRECT yet. The ri->map on that CPU becomes stale when the XDP program is unloaded on the driver, and a prog B loaded on a different driver which supports XDP_REDIRECT return code. prog B would have to omit calling to bpf_redirect_map() and just return XDP_REDIRECT, which would then access the freed map in xdp_do_redirect() since not cleared for that CPU. ii) prog A is calling bpf_redirect_map(), returning a code other than XDP_REDIRECT. prog A is then detached, which triggers release of the map. prog B is attached which, similarly as in i), would just return XDP_REDIRECT without having called bpf_redirect_map() and thus be accessing the freed map in xdp_do_redirect() since not cleared for that CPU. iii) prog A is attached to generic XDP, calling the bpf_redirect_map() helper and returning XDP_REDIRECT. xdp_do_generic_redirect() is currently not handling ri->map (will be fixed by Jesper), so it's not being reset. Later loading a e.g. native prog B which would, say, call bpf_xdp_redirect() and then returns XDP_REDIRECT would find in xdp_do_redirect() that a map was set and uses that causing use after free on map access. Fix thus needs to avoid accessing stale ri->map pointers, naive way would be to call a BPF function from drivers that just resets it to NULL for all XDP return codes but XDP_REDIRECT and including XDP_REDIRECT for drivers not supporting it yet (and let ri->map being handled in xdp_do_generic_redirect()). There is a less intrusive way w/o letting drivers call a reset for each BPF run. The verifier knows we're calling into bpf_xdp_redirect_map() helper, so it can do a small insn rewrite transparent to the prog itself in the sense that it fills R4 with a pointer to the own bpf_prog. We have that pointer at verification time anyway and R4 is allowed to be used as per calling convention we scratch R0 to R5 anyway, so they become inaccessible and program cannot read them prior to a write. Then, the helper would store the prog pointer in the current CPUs struct redirect_info. Later in xdp_do_*_redirect() we check whether the redirect_info's prog pointer is the same as passed xdp_prog pointer, and if that's the case then all good, since the prog holds a ref on the map anyway, so it is always valid at that point in time and must have a reference count of at least 1. If in the unlikely case they are not equal, it means we got a stale pointer, so we clear and bail out right there. Also do reset map and the owning prog in bpf_xdp_redirect(), so that bpf_xdp_redirect_map() and bpf_xdp_redirect() won't get mixed up, only the last call should take precedence. A tc bpf_redirect() doesn't use map anywhere yet, so no need to clear it there since never accessed in that layer. Note that in case the prog is released, and thus the map as well we're still under RCU read critical section at that time and have preemption disabled as well. Once we commit with the __dev_map_insert_ctx() from xdp_do_redirect_map() and set the map to ri->map_to_flush, we still wait for a xdp_do_flush_map() to finish in devmap dismantle time once flush_needed bit is set, so that is fine.

Patch series "kmod: few code cleanups to split out umh code" The usermode helper has a provenance from the old usb code which first required a usermode helper. Eventually this was shoved into kmod.c and the kernel's modprobe calls was converted over eventually to share the same code. Over time the list of usermode helpers in the kernel has grown -- so kmod is just but one user of the API. This series is a simple logical cleanup which acknowledges the code evolution of the usermode helper and shoves the UMH API into its own dedicated file. This way users of the API can later just include umh.h instead of kmod.h. Note despite the diff state the first patch really is just a code shove, no functional changes are done there. I did use git format-patch -M to generate the patch, but in the end the split was not enough for git to consider it a rename hence the large diffstat. I've put this through 0-day and it gives me their machine compilation blessings with all tests as OK. This patch (of 4): There's a slew of usermode helper users and kmod is just one of them. Split out the usermode helper code into its own file to keep the logic and focus split up. This change provides no functional changes.

First, number of CPUs can't be negative number. Second, different signnnedness leads to suboptimal code in the following cases: 1) kmalloc(nr_cpu_ids * sizeof(X)); "int" has to be sign extended to size_t. 2) while (loff_t *pos < nr_cpu_ids) MOVSXD is 1 byte longed than the same MOV. Other cases exist as well. Basically compiler is told that nr_cpu_ids can't be negative which can't be deduced if it is "int".
