      xfs: serialize unaligned dio writes against all other dio writes · 17e3abba
      Brian Foster 提交于
      commit 2032a8a27b5cc0f578d37fa16fa2494b80a0d00a upstream.
      
      XFS applies more strict serialization constraints to unaligned
      direct writes to accommodate things like direct I/O layer zeroing,
      unwritten extent conversion, etc. Unaligned submissions acquire the
      exclusive iolock and wait for in-flight dio to complete to ensure
      multiple submissions do not race on the same block and cause data
      corruption.
      
      This generally works in the case of an aligned dio followed by an
      unaligned dio, but the serialization is lost if I/Os occur in the
      opposite order. If an unaligned write is submitted first and
      immediately followed by an overlapping, aligned write, the latter
      submits without the typical unaligned serialization barriers because
      there is no indication of an unaligned dio still in-flight. This can
      lead to unpredictable results.
      
      To provide proper unaligned dio serialization, require that such
      direct writes are always the only dio allowed in-flight at one time
      for a particular inode. We already acquire the exclusive iolock and
      drain pending dio before submitting the unaligned dio. Wait once
      more after the dio submission to hold the iolock across the I/O and
      prevent further submissions until the unaligned I/O completes. This
      is heavy handed, but consistent with the current pre-submission
      serialization for unaligned direct writes.

      kernel/sched/psi.c: expose pressure metrics on root cgroup · c08655b3
      Dan Schatzberg 提交于
      commit df5ba5be7425e1df296d40c5f37a39d98ec666a2 upstream.
      
      Pressure metrics are already recorded and exposed in procfs for the
      entire system, but any tool which monitors cgroup pressure has to
      special case the root cgroup to read from procfs.  This patch exposes
      the already recorded pressure metrics on the root cgroup.

      psi: introduce psi monitor · 0ffbbfe9
      Suren Baghdasaryan 提交于
      commit 0e94682b73bfa6c44c98af7a26771c9c08c055d5 upstream.
      
      Psi monitor aims to provide a low-latency short-term pressure detection
      mechanism configurable by users.  It allows users to monitor psi metrics
      growth and trigger events whenever a metric raises above user-defined
      threshold within user-defined time window.
      
      Time window and threshold are both expressed in usecs.  Multiple psi
      resources with different thresholds and window sizes can be monitored
      concurrently.
      
      Psi monitors activate when system enters stall state for the monitored
      psi metric and deactivate upon exit from the stall state.  While system
      is in the stall state psi signal growth is monitored at a rate of 10
      times per tracking window.  Min window size is 500ms, therefore the min
      monitoring interval is 50ms.  Max window size is 10s with monitoring
      interval of 1s.
      
      When activated psi monitor stays active for at least the duration of one
      tracking window to avoid repeated activations/deactivations when psi
      signal is bouncing.
      
      Notifications to the users are rate-limited to one per tracking window.

      fs: kernfs: add poll file operation · 5c993d7f
      Johannes Weiner 提交于
      commit 147e1a97c4a0bdd43f55a582a9416bb9092563a9 upstream.
      
      Patch series "psi: pressure stall monitors", v3.
      
      Android is adopting psi to detect and remedy memory pressure that
      results in stuttering and decreased responsiveness on mobile devices.
      
      Psi gives us the stall information, but because we're dealing with
      latencies in the millisecond range, periodically reading the pressure
      files to detect stalls in a timely fashion is not feasible.  Psi also
      doesn't aggregate its averages at a high enough frequency right now.
      
      This patch series extends the psi interface such that users can
      configure sensitive latency thresholds and use poll() and friends to be
      notified when these are breached.
      
      As high-frequency aggregation is costly, it implements an aggregation
      method that is optimized for fast, short-interval averaging, and makes
      the aggregation frequency adaptive, such that high-frequency updates
      only happen while monitored stall events are actively occurring.
      
      With these patches applied, Android can monitor for, and ward off,
      mounting memory shortages before they cause problems for the user.  For
      example, using memory stall monitors in userspace low memory killer
      daemon (lmkd) we can detect mounting pressure and kill less important
      processes before device becomes visibly sluggish.
      
      In our memory stress testing psi memory monitors produce roughly 10x
      less false positives compared to vmpressure signals.  Having ability to
      specify multiple triggers for the same psi metric allows other parts of
      Android framework to monitor memory state of the device and act
      accordingly.
      
      The new interface is straightforward.  The user opens one of the
      pressure files for writing and writes a trigger description into the
      file descriptor that defines the stall state - some or full, and the
      maximum stall time over a given window of time.  E.g.:
      
              /* Signal when stall time exceeds 100ms of a 1s window */
              char trigger[] = "full 100000 1000000";
              fd = open("/proc/pressure/memory");
              write(fd, trigger, sizeof(trigger));
              while (poll() >= 0) {
                      ...
              }
              close(fd);
      
      When the monitored stall state is entered, psi adapts its aggregation
      frequency according to what the configured time window requires in order
      to emit event signals in a timely fashion.  Once the stalling subsides,
      aggregation reverts back to normal.
      
      The trigger is associated with the open file descriptor.  To stop
      monitoring, the user only needs to close the file descriptor and the
      trigger is discarded.
      
      Patches 1-4 prepare the psi code for polling support.  Patch 5
      implements the adaptive polling logic, the pressure growth detection
      optimized for short intervals, and hooks up write() and poll() on the
      pressure files.
      
      The patches were developed in collaboration with Johannes Weiner.
      
      This patch (of 5):
      
      Kernfs has a standardized poll/notification mechanism for waking all
      pollers on all fds when a filesystem node changes.  To allow polling for
      custom events, add a .poll callback that can override the default.
      
      This is in preparation for pollable cgroup pressure files which have
      per-fd trigger configurations.

      The patches were developed in collaboration with Johannes Weiner.
      
      This patch (of 7):
      
      The psi monitoring patches will need to determine the same states as
      record_times().  To avoid calculating them twice, maintain a state mask
      that can be consulted cheaply.  Do this in a separate patch to keep the
      churn in the main feature patch at a minimum.
      
      This adds 4-byte state_mask member into psi_group_cpu struct which
      results in its first cacheline-aligned part becoming 52 bytes long.  Add

      psi: clarify the units used in pressure files · 5127bf43
      Waiman Long 提交于
      commit be87ab0afd680ac35486d16c0963c56d9be1d8a0 upstream.
      
      The output of the PSI files show a bunch of numbers with no unit.  The
      psi.txt documentation file also does not indicate what units are used.
      One can only find out by looking at the source code.  The units are
      percentage for the averages and useconds for the total.  Make the
      information easier to find by documenting the units in psi.txt.

      The Code-line points to `period` being 0 inside update_stats(), and we
      divide by that when calculating that period's pressure percentage.
      
      The elapsed period should never be 0.  The reason this can happen is due
      to an off-by-one in the idle time / missing period calculation combined
      with a coarse sched_clock() in the virtual machine.
      
      The target time for aggregation is advanced into the future on a fixed
      grid to prevent clock drift.  So when an aggregation runs after some idle
      period, we can not just set it to "now + psi_period", but have to
      calculate the downtime and advance the target time relative to itself.
      
      However, if the aggregator was disabled exactly one psi_period (ns), we
      drop one idle period in the calculation due to a > when we should do >=.
      In that case, next_update will be advanced from 'now - psi_period' to
      'now' when it should be moved to 'now + psi_period'.  The run finishes
      with last_update == next_update == sched_clock().
      
      With hardware clocks, this exact nanosecond match isn't likely in the
      first place; but if it does happen, the clock will still have moved on and
      the period non-zero by the time the worker runs.  A pointlessly short
      period, but besides the extra work, no harm no foul.  However, a slow
      sched_clock() like we have on VMs might not have advanced either by the
      time the worker runs again.  And when we calculate the elapsed period, the
      result, our pressure divisor, will be 0.  Ouch.
      
      Fix this by correctly handling the situation when the elapsed time between
      aggregation runs is precisely two periods, and advance the expiration
      timestamp correctly to period into the future.

      psi: clarify the Kconfig text for the default-disable option · 003f056a
      Johannes Weiner 提交于
      commit 7b2489d37e1e355228f7c55724f77580e1dec22a upstream.
      
      The current help text caused some confusion in online forums about
      whether or not to default-enable or default-disable psi in vendor
      kernels.  This is because it doesn't communicate the reason for why we
      made this setting configurable in the first place: that the overhead is
      non-zero in an artificial scheduler stress test.
      
      Since this isn't representative of real workloads, and the effect was
      not measurable in scheduler-heavy real world applications such as the
      webservers and memcache installations at Facebook, it's fair to point
      out that this is a pretty cautious option to select.

      psi: fix aggregation idle shut-off · 39057d08
      Johannes Weiner 提交于
      commit 1b69ac6b40ebd85eed73e4dbccde2a36961ab990 upstream.
      
      psi has provisions to shut off the periodic aggregation worker when
      there is a period of no task activity - and thus no data that needs
      aggregating.  However, while developing psi monitoring, Suren noticed
      that the aggregation clock currently won't stay shut off for good.
      
      Debugging this revealed a flaw in the idle design: an aggregation run
      will see no task activity and decide to go to sleep; shortly thereafter,
      the kworker thread that executed the aggregation will go idle and cause
      a scheduling change, during which the psi callback will kick the
      !pending worker again.  This will ping-pong forever, and is equivalent
      to having no shut-off logic at all (but with more code!)
      
      Fix this by exempting aggregation workers from psi's clock waking logic
      when the state change is them going to sleep.  To do this, tag workers
      with the last work function they executed, and if in psi we see a worker
      going to sleep after aggregating psi data, we will not reschedule the
      aggregation work item.
      
      What if the worker is also executing other items before or after?
      
      Any psi state times that were incurred by work items preceding the
      aggregation work will have been collected from the per-cpu buckets
      during the aggregation itself.  If there are work items following the
      aggregation work, the worker's last_func tag will be overwritten and the
      aggregator will be kept alive to process this genuine new activity.
      
      If the aggregation work is the last thing the worker does, and we decide
      to go idle, the brief period of non-idle time incurred between the
      aggregation run and the kworker's dequeue will be stranded in the
      per-cpu buckets until the clock is woken by later activity.  But that
      should not be a problem.  The buckets can hold 4s worth of time, and
      future activity will wake the clock with a 2s delay, giving us 2s worth
      of data we can leave behind when disabling aggregation.  If it takes a
      worker more than two seconds to go idle after it finishes its last work
      item, we likely have bigger problems in the system, and won't notice one
      sample that was averaged with a bogus per-CPU weight.

      psi: make disabling/enabling easier for vendor kernels · 59d17ef0
      Johannes Weiner 提交于
      commit e0c274472d5d27f277af722e017525e0b33784cd upstream.
      
      Mel Gorman reports a hackbench regression with psi that would prohibit
      shipping the suse kernel with it default-enabled, but he'd still like
      users to be able to opt in at little to no cost to others.
      
      With the current combination of CONFIG_PSI and the psi_disabled bool set
      from the commandline, this is a challenge.  Do the following things to
      make it easier:
      
      1. Add a config option CONFIG_PSI_DEFAULT_DISABLED that allows distros
         to enable CONFIG_PSI in their kernel but leave the feature disabled
         unless a user requests it at boot-time.
      
         To avoid double negatives, rename psi_disabled= to psi=.
      
      2. Make psi_disabled a static branch to eliminate any branch costs
         when the feature is disabled.
      
      In terms of numbers before and after this patch, Mel says:

      On a system that executes multiple cgrouped jobs and independent
      workloads, we don't just care about the health of the overall system, but
      also that of individual jobs, so that we can ensure individual job health,
      fairness between jobs, or prioritize some jobs over others.
      
      This patch implements pressure stall tracking for cgroups.  In kernels
      with CONFIG_PSI=y, cgroup2 groups will have cpu.pressure, memory.pressure,
      and io.pressure files that track aggregate pressure stall times for only
      the tasks inside the cgroup.

      psi: pressure stall information for CPU, memory, and IO · d2b34844
      Johannes Weiner 提交于
      commit eb414681d5a07d28d2ff90dc05f69ec6b232ebd2 upstream.
      
      When systems are overcommitted and resources become contended, it's hard
      to tell exactly the impact this has on workload productivity, or how close
      the system is to lockups and OOM kills.  In particular, when machines work
      multiple jobs concurrently, the impact of overcommit in terms of latency
      and throughput on the individual job can be enormous.
      
      In order to maximize hardware utilization without sacrificing individual
      job health or risk complete machine lockups, this patch implements a way
      to quantify resource pressure in the system.
      
      A kernel built with CONFIG_PSI=y creates files in /proc/pressure/ that
      expose the percentage of time the system is stalled on CPU, memory, or IO,
      respectively.  Stall states are aggregate versions of the per-task delay
      accounting delays:
      
             cpu: some tasks are runnable but not executing on a CPU
             memory: tasks are reclaiming, or waiting for swapin or thrashing cache
             io: tasks are waiting for io completions
      
      These percentages of walltime can be thought of as pressure percentages,
      and they give a general sense of system health and productivity loss
      incurred by resource overcommit.  They can also indicate when the system
      is approaching lockup scenarios and OOMs.
      
      To do this, psi keeps track of the task states associated with each CPU
      and samples the time they spend in stall states.  Every 2 seconds, the
      samples are averaged across CPUs - weighted by the CPUs' non-idle time to
      eliminate artifacts from unused CPUs - and translated into percentages of
      walltime.  A running average of those percentages is maintained over 10s,
      1m, and 5m periods (similar to the loadaverage).

      delayacct: track delays from thrashing cache pages · 0ec483fa
      Johannes Weiner 提交于
      commit b1d29ba82cf2bc784f4c963ddd6a2cf29e229b33 upstream.
      
      Delay accounting already measures the time a task spends in direct reclaim
      and waiting for swapin, but in low memory situations tasks spend can spend
      a significant amount of their time waiting on thrashing page cache.  This
      isn't tracked right now.
      
      To know the full impact of memory contention on an individual task,
      measure the delay when waiting for a recently evicted active cache page to
      read back into memory.
      
      Also update tools/accounting/getdelays.c:
      
           [hannes@computer accounting]$ sudo ./getdelays -d -p 1

      mm: workingset: tell cache transitions from workingset thrashing · 20403665
      Johannes Weiner 提交于
      commit 1899ad18c6072d689896badafb81267b0a1092a4 upstream.
      
      Refaults happen during transitions between workingsets as well as in-place
      thrashing.  Knowing the difference between the two has a range of
      applications, including measuring the impact of memory shortage on the
      system performance, as well as the ability to smarter balance pressure
      between the filesystem cache and the swap-backed workingset.
      
      During workingset transitions, inactive cache refaults and pushes out
      established active cache.  When that active cache isn't stale, however,
      and also ends up refaulting, that's bonafide thrashing.
      
      Introduce a new page flag that tells on eviction whether the page has been
      active or not in its lifetime.  This bit is then stored in the shadow
      entry, to classify refaults as transitioning or thrashing.
      
      How many page->flags does this leave us with on 32-bit?
      
      	20 bits are always page flags
      
      	21 if you have an MMU
      
      	23 with the zone bits for DMA, Normal, HighMem, Movable
      
      	29 with the sparsemem section bits
      
      	30 if PAE is enabled
      
      	31 with this patch.
      
      So on 32-bit PAE, that leaves 1 bit for distinguishing two NUMA nodes.  If
      that's not enough, the system can switch to discontigmem and re-gain the 6
      or 7 sparsemem section bits.

      mm: workingset: don't drop refault information prematurely · 63a30543
      Johannes Weiner 提交于
      commit 95f9ab2d596e8cbb388315e78c82b9a131bf2928 upstream.
      
      Patch series "psi: pressure stall information for CPU, memory, and IO", v4.
      
      		Overview
      
      PSI reports the overall wallclock time in which the tasks in a system (or
      cgroup) wait for (contended) hardware resources.
      
      This helps users understand the resource pressure their workloads are
      under, which allows them to rootcause and fix throughput and latency
      problems caused by overcommitting, underprovisioning, suboptimal job
      placement in a grid; as well as anticipate major disruptions like OOM.
      
      		Real-world applications
      
      We're using the data collected by PSI (and its previous incarnation,
      memdelay) quite extensively at Facebook, and with several success stories.
      
      One usecase is avoiding OOM hangs/livelocks.  The reason these happen is
      because the OOM killer is triggered by reclaim not being able to free
      pages, but with fast flash devices there is *always* some clean and
      uptodate cache to reclaim; the OOM killer never kicks in, even as tasks
      spend 90% of the time thrashing the cache pages of their own executables.
      There is no situation where this ever makes sense in practice.  We wrote a
      <100 line POC python script to monitor memory pressure and kill stuff way
      before such pathological thrashing leads to full system losses that would
      require forcible hard resets.
      
      We've since extended and deployed this code into other places to guarantee
      latency and throughput SLAs, since they're usually violated way before the
      kernel OOM killer would ever kick in.
      
      It is available here: https://github.com/facebookincubator/oomd
      
      Eventually we probably want to trigger the in-kernel OOM killer based on
      extreme sustained pressure as well, so that Linux can avoid memory
      livelocks - which technically aren't deadlocks, but to the user
      indistinguishable from them - out of the box.  We'd continue using OOMD as
      the first line of defense to ensure workload health and implement complex
      kill policies that are beyond the scope of the kernel.
      
      We also use PSI memory pressure for loadshedding.  Our batch job
      infrastructure used to use heuristics based on various VM stats to
      anticipate OOM situations, with lackluster success.  We switched it to PSI
      and managed to anticipate and avoid OOM kills and lockups fairly reliably.
      The reduction of OOM outages in the worker pool raised the pool's
      aggregate productivity, and we were able to switch that service to smaller
      machines.
      
      Lastly, we use cgroups to isolate a machine's main workload from
      maintenance crap like package upgrades, logging, configuration, as well as
      to prevent multiple workloads on a machine from stepping on each others'
      toes.  We were not able to configure this properly without the pressure
      metrics; we would see latency or bandwidth drops, but it would often be
      hard to impossible to rootcause it post-mortem.
      
      We now log and graph pressure for the containers in our fleet and can
      trivially link latency spikes and throughput drops to shortages of
      specific resources after the fact, and fix the job config/scheduling.
      
      PSI has also received testing, feedback, and feature requests from Android
      and EndlessOS for the purpose of low-latency OOM killing, to intervene in
      pressure situations before the UI starts hanging.
      
      		How do you use this feature?
      
      A kernel with CONFIG_PSI=y will create a /proc/pressure directory with 3
      files: cpu, memory, and io.  If using cgroup2, cgroups will also have
      cpu.pressure, memory.pressure and io.pressure files, which simply
      aggregate task stalls at the cgroup level instead of system-wide.
      
      The cpu file contains one line:
      
      	some avg10=2.04 avg60=0.75 avg300=0.40 total=157656722
      
      The averages give the percentage of walltime in which one or more tasks
      are delayed on the runqueue while another task has the CPU.  They're
      recent averages over 10s, 1m, 5m windows, so you can tell short term
      trends from long term ones, similarly to the load average.
      
      The total= value gives the absolute stall time in microseconds.  This
      allows detecting latency spikes that might be too short to sway the
      running averages.  It also allows custom time averaging in case the
      10s/1m/5m windows aren't adequate for the usecase (or are too coarse with
      future hardware).
      
      What to make of this "some" metric?  If CPU utilization is at 100% and CPU
      pressure is 0, it means the system is perfectly utilized, with one
      runnable thread per CPU and nobody waiting.  At two or more runnable tasks
      per CPU, the system is 100% overcommitted and the pressure average will
      indicate as much.  From a utilization perspective this is a great state of
      course: no CPU cycles are being wasted, even when 50% of the threads were
      to go idle (as most workloads do vary).  From the perspective of the
      individual job it's not great, however, and they would do better with more
      resources.  Depending on what your priority and options are, raised "some"
      numbers may or may not require action.
      
      The memory file contains two lines:
      
      some avg10=70.24 avg60=68.52 avg300=69.91 total=3559632828
      full avg10=57.59 avg60=58.06 avg300=60.38 total=3300487258
      
      The some line is the same as for cpu, the time in which at least one task
      is stalled on the resource.  In the case of memory, this includes waiting
      on swap-in, page cache refaults and page reclaim.
      
      The full line, however, indicates time in which *nobody* is using the CPU
      productively due to pressure: all non-idle tasks are waiting for memory in
      one form or another.  Significant time spent in there is a good trigger
      for killing things, moving jobs to other machines, or dropping incoming
      requests, since neither the jobs nor the machine overall are making too
      much headway.
      
      The io file is similar to memory.  Because the block layer doesn't have a
      concept of hardware contention right now (how much longer is my IO request
      taking due to other tasks?), it reports CPU potential lost on all IO
      delays, not just the potential lost due to competition.
      
      		FAQ
      
      Q: How is PSI's CPU component different from the load average?
      
      A: There are several quirks in the load average that make it hard to
         impossible to tell how overcommitted the CPU really is.
      
         1. The load average is reported as a raw number of active tasks.
            You need to know how many CPUs there are in the system, how many
            CPUs the workload is allowed to use, then think about what the
            proportion between load and the number of CPUs mean for the
            tasks trying to run.
      
            PSI reports the percentage of wallclock time in which tasks are
            waiting for a CPU to run on. It doesn't matter how many CPUs are
            present or usable. The number always tells the quality of life
            of tasks in the system or in a particular cgroup.
      
         2. The shortest averaging window is 1m, which is extremely coarse,
            and it's sampled in 5s intervals. A *lot* can happen on a CPU in
            5 seconds. This *may* be able to identify persistent long-term
            trends and very clear and obvious overloads, but it's unusable
            for latency spikes and more subtle overutilization.
      
            PSI's shortest window is 10s. It also exports the cumulative
            stall times (in microseconds) of synchronously recorded events.
      
         3. On Linux, the load average for historical reasons includes all
            TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE tasks. This gives a broader sense of how
            busy the system is, but on the flipside it doesn't distinguish
            whether tasks are likely to contend over the CPU or IO - which
            obviously requires very different interventions from a sys admin
            or a job scheduler.
      
            PSI reports independent metrics for CPU and IO. You can tell
            which resource is making the tasks wait, but in conjunction
            still see how overloaded the system is overall.
      
      Q: What's the cost / performance impact of this feature?
      
      A: PSI's primary cost is in the scheduler, in particular task wakeups
         and sleeps.
      
         I benchmarked this code using Facebook's two most scheduling
         sensitive workloads: memcache and webserver. They handle a ton of
         small requests - lots of wakeups and sleeps with little actual work
         in between - so they tend to be canaries for scheduler regressions.
      
         In the tests, the boxes were handling live traffic over the course
         of several hours. Half the machines, the control, ran with
         CONFIG_PSI=n.
      
         For memcache I used eight machines total. They're 2-socket, 14
         core, 56 thread boxes. The test runs for half the test period,
         flips the test and control kernels on the hardware to rule out HW
         factors, DC location etc., then runs the other half of the test.
      
         For the webservers, I used 32 machines total. They're single
         socket, 16 core, 32 thread machines.
      
         During the memcache test, CPU load was nopsi=78.05% psi=78.98% in
         the first half and nopsi=77.52% psi=78.25%, so PSI added between
         0.7 and 0.9 percentage points to the CPU load, a difference of
         about 1%.
      
         UPDATE: I re-ran this test with the v3 version of this patch set
         and the CPU utilization was equivalent between test and control.
      
         UPDATE: v4 is on par with v3.
      
         As far as end-to-end request latency from the client perspective
         goes, we don't sample those finely enough to capture the requests
         going to those particular machines during the test, but we know the
         p50 turnaround time in this workload is 54us, and perf bench sched
         pipe on those machines show nopsi=5.232666 us/op and psi=5.587347
         us/op, so this doesn't add much here either.
      
         The profile for the pipe benchmark shows:
      
              0.87%  sched-pipe  [kernel.vmlinux]    [k] psi_group_change
              0.83%  perf.real   [kernel.vmlinux]    [k] psi_group_change
              0.82%  perf.real   [kernel.vmlinux]    [k] psi_task_change
              0.58%  sched-pipe  [kernel.vmlinux]    [k] psi_task_change
      
         The webserver load is running inside 4 nested cgroup levels. The
         CPU load with both nopsi and psi kernels was indistinguishable at
         81%.
      
         For comparison, we had to disable the cgroup cpu controller on the
         webservers because it added 4 percentage points to the CPU% during
         this same exact test.
      
         Versions of this accounting code now run on 80% of our fleet. None
         of our workloads have reported regressions during the rollout.

      This patch (of 9):
      
      If we keep just enough refault information to match the *current* page

      only a temporary spike in non-cache memory consumption that pushes out all
      the cache.  Once cache comes back, we won't see those refaults.  They
      might not be actionable for LRU aging, but we want to know about them for
      measuring memory pressure.

      splice: don't read more than available pipe space · c90ceaff
      Darrick J. Wong 提交于
      commit 17614445576b6af24e9cf36607c6448164719c96 upstream.
      
      In commit 4721a601099, we tried to fix a problem wherein directio reads
      into a splice pipe will bounce EFAULT/EAGAIN all the way out to
      userspace by simulating a zero-byte short read.  This happens because
      some directio read implementations (xfs) will call
      bio_iov_iter_get_pages to grab pipe buffer pages and issue asynchronous
      reads, but as soon as we run out of pipe buffers that _get_pages call
      returns EFAULT, which the splice code translates to EAGAIN and bounces
      out to userspace.
      
      In that commit, the iomap code catches the EFAULT and simulates a
      zero-byte read, but that causes assertion errors on regular splice reads
      because xfs doesn't allow short directio reads.
      
      The brokenness is compounded by splice_direct_to_actor immediately
      bailing on do_splice_to returning <= 0 without ever calling ->actor
      (which empties out the pipe), so if userspace calls back we'll EFAULT
      again on the full pipe, and nothing ever gets copied.
      
      Therefore, teach splice_direct_to_actor to clamp its requests to the
      amount of free space in the pipe and remove the simulated short read
      from the iomap directio code.

      xfs: don't overflow xattr listent buffer · 1169e86d
      Darrick J. Wong 提交于
      commit 3b50086f0c0d78c144d9483fa292c1509c931b70 upstream.
      
      For VFS listxattr calls, xfs_xattr_put_listent calls

      "trusted.SGI_ACL_FILE": once for that name, and again for
      "system.posix_acl_access".  Unfortunately, if we happen to run out of
      buffer space while emitting the first name, we set count to -1 (so that
      we can feed ERANGE to the caller).  The second invocation doesn't check that
      the context parameters make sense and overwrites the byte before the
      buffer, triggering a KASAN report:

      NOTE: set the tcp_tw_timeout below 60 seconds voilates the "quiet time"

      block: Fix a NULL pointer dereference in generic_make_request() · b469cdb5
      Guilherme G. Piccoli 提交于
      Commit 37f9579f ("blk-mq: Avoid that submitting a bio concurrently
      with device removal triggers a crash") introduced a NULL pointer
      dereference in generic_make_request(). The patch sets q to NULL and
      enter_succeeded to false; right after, there's an 'if (enter_succeeded)'
      which is not taken, and then the 'else' will dereference q in
      blk_queue_dying(q).
      
      This patch just moves the 'q = NULL' to a point in which it won't trigger
      the oops, although the semantics of this NULLification remains untouched.
      
      A simple test case/reproducer is as follows:
      a) Build kernel v5.2-rc1 with CONFIG_BLK_CGROUP=n.
      
      b) Create a raid0 md array with 2 NVMe devices as members, and mount it
      with an ext4 filesystem.
      
      c) Run the following oneliner (supposing the raid0 is mounted in /mnt):
      (dd of=/mnt/tmp if=/dev/zero bs=1M count=999 &); sleep 0.3;
      echo 1 > /sys/block/nvme0n1/device/device/remove
      (whereas nvme0n1 is the 2nd array member)
      
      This will trigger the following oops:
      
      BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000078
      PGD 0 P4D 0

      This patch has no functional changes and preserves the md/raid0 behavior
      when a member is removed before kernel v4.17.
