      kernel/sched/clock.c: add another clock for use with the soft lockup watchdog · 545a2bf7
      Cyril Bur 提交于
      When the hypervisor pauses a virtualised kernel the kernel will observe a
      jump in timebase, this can cause spurious messages from the softlockup
      detector.
      
      Whilst these messages are harmless, they are accompanied with a stack
      trace which causes undue concern and more problematically the stack trace
      in the guest has nothing to do with the observed problem and can only be
      misleading.
      
      Futhermore, on POWER8 this is completely avoidable with the introduction
      of the Virtual Time Base (VTB) register.
      
      This patch (of 2):
      
      This permits the use of arch specific clocks for which virtualised kernels
      can use their notion of 'running' time, not the elpased wall time which
      will include host execution time.

      all arches, signal: move restart_block to struct task_struct · f56141e3
      Andy Lutomirski 提交于
      If an attacker can cause a controlled kernel stack overflow, overwriting
      the restart block is a very juicy exploit target.  This is because the
      restart_block is held in the same memory allocation as the kernel stack.
      
      Moving the restart block to struct task_struct prevents this exploit by
      making the restart_block harder to locate.
      
      Note that there are other fields in thread_info that are also easy
      targets, at least on some architectures.
      
      It's also a decent simplification, since the restart code is more or less
      identical on all architectures.

      cgroup: release css->id after css_free · 01e58659
      Vladimir Davydov 提交于
      Currently, we release css->id in css_release_work_fn, right before calling
      css_free callback, so that when css_free is called, the id may have
      already been reused for a new cgroup.
      
      I am going to use css->id to create unique names for per memcg kmem
      caches.  Since kmem caches are destroyed only on css_free, I need css->id
      to be freed after css_free was called to avoid name clashes.  This patch
      therefore moves css->id removal to css_free_work_fn.  To prevent
      css_from_id from returning a pointer to a stale css, it makes
      css_release_work_fn replace the css ptr at css_idr:css->id with NULL.

      mm: fix false-positive warning on exit due mm_nr_pmds(mm) · b30fe6c7
      Kirill A. Shutemov 提交于
      The problem is that we check nr_ptes/nr_pmds in exit_mmap() which happens
      *before* pgd_free().  And if an arch does pte/pmd allocation in
      pgd_alloc() and frees them in pgd_free() we see offset in counters by the
      time of the checks.
      
      We tried to workaround this by offsetting expected counter value according
      to FIRST_USER_ADDRESS for both nr_pte and nr_pmd in exit_mmap().  But it
      doesn't work in some cases:
      
      1. ARM with LPAE enabled also has non-zero USER_PGTABLES_CEILING, but
         upper addresses occupied with huge pmd entries, so the trick with
         offsetting expected counter value will get really ugly: we will have
         to apply it nr_pmds, but not nr_ptes.
      
      2. Metag has non-zero FIRST_USER_ADDRESS, but doesn't do allocation
         pte/pmd page tables allocation in pgd_alloc(), just setup a pgd entry
         which is allocated at boot and shared accross all processes.
      
      The proposal is to move the check to check_mm() which happens *after*
      pgd_free() and do proper accounting during pgd_alloc() and pgd_free()
      which would bring counters to zero if nothing leaked.

      mm: account pmd page tables to the process · dc6c9a35
      Kirill A. Shutemov 提交于
      Dave noticed that unprivileged process can allocate significant amount of
      memory -- >500 MiB on x86_64 -- and stay unnoticed by oom-killer and
      memory cgroup.  The trick is to allocate a lot of PMD page tables.  Linux
      kernel doesn't account PMD tables to the process, only PTE.
      
      The use-cases below use few tricks to allocate a lot of PMD page tables
      while keeping VmRSS and VmPTE low.  oom_score for the process will be 0.
      
      	#include <errno.h>
      	#include <stdio.h>
      	#include <stdlib.h>

      	#include <sys/prctl.h>
      
      	#define PUD_SIZE (1UL << 30)
      	#define PMD_SIZE (1UL << 21)
      
      	#define NR_PUD 130000
      
      	int main(void)
      	{
      		char *addr = NULL;
      		unsigned long i;
      
      		prctl(PR_SET_THP_DISABLE);
      		for (i = 0; i < NR_PUD ; i++) {
      			addr = mmap(addr + PUD_SIZE, PUD_SIZE, PROT_WRITE|PROT_READ,
      					MAP_ANONYMOUS|MAP_PRIVATE, -1, 0);
      			if (addr == MAP_FAILED) {
      				perror("mmap");
      				break;
      			}
      			*addr = 'x';
      			munmap(addr, PMD_SIZE);
      			mmap(addr, PMD_SIZE, PROT_WRITE|PROT_READ,
      					MAP_ANONYMOUS|MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED, -1, 0);
      			if (addr == MAP_FAILED)
      				perror("re-mmap"), exit(1);
      		}
      		printf("PID %d consumed %lu KiB in PMD page tables\n",
      				getpid(), i * 4096 >> 10);
      		return pause();
      	}
      
      The patch addresses the issue by account PMD tables to the process the
      same way we account PTE.
      
      The main place where PMD tables is accounted is __pmd_alloc() and
      free_pmd_range(). But there're few corner cases:
      
       - HugeTLB can share PMD page tables. The patch handles by accounting
         the table to all processes who share it.
      
       - x86 PAE pre-allocates few PMD tables on fork.
      
       - Architectures with FIRST_USER_ADDRESS > 0. We need to adjust sanity
         check on exit(2).
      
      Accounting only happens on configuration where PMD page table's level is
      present (PMD is not folded).  As with nr_ptes we use per-mm counter.  The
      counter value is used to calculate baseline for badness score by
      oom-killer.

      oom, PM: make OOM detection in the freezer path raceless · c32b3cbe
      Michal Hocko 提交于
      Commit 5695be14 ("OOM, PM: OOM killed task shouldn't escape PM
      suspend") has left a race window when OOM killer manages to
      note_oom_kill after freeze_processes checks the counter.  The race
      window is quite small and really unlikely and partial solution deemed
      sufficient at the time of submission.
      
      Tejun wasn't happy about this partial solution though and insisted on a
      full solution.  That requires the full OOM and freezer's task freezing
      exclusion, though.  This is done by this patch which introduces oom_sem
      RW lock and turns oom_killer_disable() into a full OOM barrier.
      
      oom_killer_disabled check is moved from the allocation path to the OOM
      level and we take oom_sem for reading for both the check and the whole
      OOM invocation.
      
      oom_killer_disable() takes oom_sem for writing so it waits for all
      currently running OOM killer invocations.  Then it disable all the further
      OOMs by setting oom_killer_disabled and checks for any oom victims.
      Victims are counted via mark_tsk_oom_victim resp.  unmark_oom_victim.  The
      last victim wakes up all waiters enqueued by oom_killer_disable().
      Therefore this function acts as the full OOM barrier.
      
      The page fault path is covered now as well although it was assumed to be
      safe before.  As per Tejun, "We used to have freezing points deep in file
      system code which may be reacheable from page fault." so it would be
      better and more robust to not rely on freezing points here.  Same applies
      to the memcg OOM killer.
      
      out_of_memory tells the caller whether the OOM was allowed to trigger and
      the callers are supposed to handle the situation.  The page allocation
      path simply fails the allocation same as before.  The page fault path will
      retry the fault (more on that later) and Sysrq OOM trigger will simply
      complain to the log.
      
      Normally there wouldn't be any unfrozen user tasks after
      try_to_freeze_tasks so the function will not block. But if there was an
      OOM killer racing with try_to_freeze_tasks and the OOM victim didn't
      finish yet then we have to wait for it. This should complete in a finite
      time, though, because
      
      	- the victim cannot loop in the page fault handler (it would die
      	  on the way out from the exception)
      	- it cannot loop in the page allocator because all the further
      	  allocation would fail and __GFP_NOFAIL allocations are not
      	  acceptable at this stage
      	- it shouldn't be blocked on any locks held by frozen tasks
      	  (try_to_freeze expects lockless context) and kernel threads and
      	  work queues are not frozen yet

      oom: add helpers for setting and clearing TIF_MEMDIE · 49550b60
      Michal Hocko 提交于
      This patchset addresses a race which was described in the changelog for
      5695be14 ("OOM, PM: OOM killed task shouldn't escape PM suspend"):
      
      : PM freezer relies on having all tasks frozen by the time devices are
      : getting frozen so that no task will touch them while they are getting
      : frozen.  But OOM killer is allowed to kill an already frozen task in order
      : to handle OOM situtation.  In order to protect from late wake ups OOM
      : killer is disabled after all tasks are frozen.  This, however, still keeps
      : a window open when a killed task didn't manage to die by the time
      : freeze_processes finishes.
      
      The original patch hasn't closed the race window completely because that
      would require a more complex solution as it can be seen by this patchset.
      
      The primary motivation was to close the race condition between OOM killer
      and PM freezer _completely_.  As Tejun pointed out, even though the race
      condition is unlikely the harder it would be to debug weird bugs deep in
      the PM freezer when the debugging options are reduced considerably.  I can
      only speculate what might happen when a task is still runnable
      unexpectedly.
      
      On a plus side and as a side effect the oom enable/disable has a better
      (full barrier) semantic without polluting hot paths.
      
      I have tested the series in KVM with 100M RAM:
      - many small tasks (20M anon mmap) which are triggering OOM continually
      - s2ram which resumes automatically is triggered in a loop
      	echo processors > /sys/power/pm_test
      	while true
      	do
      		echo mem > /sys/power/state
      		sleep 1s
      	done
      - simple module which allocates and frees 20M in 8K chunks. If it sees
        freezing(current) then it tries another round of allocation before calling
        try_to_freeze
      - debugging messages of PM stages and OOM killer enable/disable/fail added
        and unmark_oom_victim is delayed by 1s after it clears TIF_MEMDIE and before
        it wakes up waiters.
      - rebased on top of the current mmotm which means some necessary updates
        in mm/oom_kill.c. mark_tsk_oom_victim is now called under task_lock but
        I think this should be OK because __thaw_task shouldn't interfere with any
        locking down wake_up_process. Oleg?
      
      As expected there are no OOM killed tasks after oom is disabled and
      allocations requested by the kernel thread are failing after all the tasks
      are frozen and OOM disabled.  I wasn't able to catch a race where
      oom_killer_disable would really have to wait but I kinda expected the race
      is really unlikely.

      The first 2 patches are simple cleanups for OOM.  They should go in
      regardless the rest IMO.
      
      Patches 3 and 4 are trivial printk -> pr_info conversion and they should
      go in ditto.
      
      The main patch is the last one and I would appreciate acks from Tejun and
      Rafael.  I think the OOM part should be OK (except for __thaw_task vs.
      task_lock where a look from Oleg would appreciated) but I am not so sure I
      haven't screwed anything in the freezer code.  I have found several
      surprises there.
      
      This patch (of 5):
      
      This patch is just a preparatory and it doesn't introduce any functional
      change.
      
      Note:
      I am utterly unhappy about lowmemory killer abusing TIF_MEMDIE just to
      wait for the oom victim and to prevent from new killing. This is
      just a side effect of the flag. The primary meaning is to give the oom
      victim access to the memory reserves and that shouldn't be necessary
      here.
