In a misguided attempt to avoid an #ifdef, the use of the gp_init_delay module parameter was conditioned on the corresponding RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT Kconfig variable, using IS_ENABLED() at the point of use in the code. This meant that the compiler always saw the delay, which meant that RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT_DELAY had to be unconditionally defined. This in turn caused "make oldconfig" to ask pointless questions about the value of RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT_DELAY in cases where it was not even used. This commit avoids these pointless questions by defining gp_init_delay under #ifdef. In one branch, gp_init_delay is initialized to RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT_DELAY and is also a module parameter (thus allowing boot-time modification), and in the other branch gp_init_delay is a const variable initialized by default to zero. This approach also simplifies the code at the delay point by eliminating the IS_DEFINED(). Because gp_init_delay is constant zero in the no-delay case intended for production use, the "gp_init_delay > 0" check causes the delay to become dead code, as desired in this case. In addition, this commit replaces magic constant "10" with the preprocessor variable PER_RCU_NODE_PERIOD, which controls the number of grace periods that are allowed to elapse at full speed before a delay is inserted.

Memtest is a simple feature which fills the memory with a given set of patterns and validates memory contents, if bad memory regions is detected it reserves them via memblock API. Since memblock API is widely used by other architectures this feature can be enabled outside of x86 world. This patch set promotes memtest to live under generic mm umbrella and enables memtest feature for arm/arm64. It was reported that this patch set was useful for tracking down an issue with some errant DMA on an arm64 platform. This patch (of 6): There is nothing platform dependent in the core memtest code, so other platforms might benefit from this feature too.

Recently there's been requests for better sanity checking in the time code, so that it's more clear when something is going wrong, since timekeeping issues could manifest in a large number of strange ways in various subsystems. Thus, this patch adds some extra infrastructure to add a check to update_wall_time() to print two new warnings: 1) if we see the call delayed beyond the 'max_cycles' overflow point, 2) or if we see the call delayed beyond the clocksource's 'max_idle_ns' value, which is currently 50% of the overflow point. This extra infrastructure is conditional on a new CONFIG_DEBUG_TIMEKEEPING option, also added in this patch - default off. Tested this a bit by halting qemu for specified lengths of time to trigger the warnings.

Grace-period initialization normally proceeds quite quickly, so that it is very difficult to reproduce races against grace-period initialization. This commit therefore allows grace-period initialization to be artificially slowed down, increasing race-reproduction probability. A pair of new Kconfig parameters are provided, CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT to enable the slowdowns, and CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT_DELAY to specify the number of jiffies of slowdown to apply. A boot-time parameter named rcutree.gp_init_delay allows boot-time delay to be specified. By default, no delay will be applied even if CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT is set.

This provides the basic infrastructure to load kernel-specific python helper scripts when debugging the kernel in gdb. The loading mechanism is based on gdb loading for <objfile>-gdb.py when opening <objfile>. Therefore, this places a corresponding link to the main helper script into the output directory that contains vmlinux. The main scripts will pull in submodules containing Linux specific gdb commands and functions. To avoid polluting the source directory with compiled python modules, we link to them from the object directory. Due to gdb.parse_and_eval and string redirection for gdb.execute, we depend on gdb >= 7.2. This feature is enabled via CONFIG_GDB_SCRIPTS.

由 Andrey Ryabinin 提交于
Kernel Address sanitizer (KASan) is a dynamic memory error detector. It provides fast and comprehensive solution for finding use-after-free and out-of-bounds bugs. KASAN uses compile-time instrumentation for checking every memory access, therefore GCC > v4.9.2 required. v4.9.2 almost works, but has issues with putting symbol aliases into the wrong section, which breaks kasan instrumentation of globals. This patch only adds infrastructure for kernel address sanitizer. It's not available for use yet. The idea and some code was borrowed from [1]. Basic idea: The main idea of KASAN is to use shadow memory to record whether each byte of memory is safe to access or not, and use compiler's instrumentation to check the shadow memory on each memory access. Address sanitizer uses 1/8 of the memory addressable in kernel for shadow memory and uses direct mapping with a scale and offset to translate a memory address to its corresponding shadow address. Here is function to translate address to corresponding shadow address: unsigned long kasan_mem_to_shadow(unsigned long addr) { return (addr >> KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SHIFT) + KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET; } where KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SHIFT = 3. So for every 8 bytes there is one corresponding byte of shadow memory. The following encoding used for each shadow byte: 0 means that all 8 bytes of the corresponding memory region are valid for access; k (1 <= k <= 7) means that the first k bytes are valid for access, and other (8 - k) bytes are not; Any negative value indicates that the entire 8-bytes are inaccessible. Different negative values used to distinguish between different kinds of inaccessible memory (redzones, freed memory) (see mm/kasan/kasan.h). To be able to detect accesses to bad memory we need a special compiler. Such compiler inserts a specific function calls (__asan_load*(addr), __asan_store*(addr)) before each memory access of size 1, 2, 4, 8 or 16. These functions check whether memory region is valid to access or not by checking corresponding shadow memory. If access is not valid an error printed. Historical background of the address sanitizer from Dmitry Vyukov: "We've developed the set of tools, AddressSanitizer (Asan), ThreadSanitizer and MemorySanitizer, for user space. We actively use them for testing inside of Google (continuous testing, fuzzing, running prod services). To date the tools have found more than 10'000 scary bugs in Chromium, Google internal codebase and various open-source projects (Firefox, OpenSSL, gcc, clang, ffmpeg, MySQL and lots of others): [2] [3] [4]. The tools are part of both gcc and clang compilers. We have not yet done massive testing under the Kernel AddressSanitizer (it's kind of chicken and egg problem, you need it to be upstream to start applying it extensively). To date it has found about 50 bugs. Bugs that we've found in upstream kernel are listed in [5]. We've also found ~20 bugs in out internal version of the kernel. Also people from Samsung and Oracle have found some. [...] As others noted, the main feature of AddressSanitizer is its performance due to inline compiler instrumentation and simple linear shadow memory. User-space Asan has ~2x slowdown on computational programs and ~2x memory consumption increase. Taking into account that kernel usually consumes only small fraction of CPU and memory when running real user-space programs, I would expect that kernel Asan will have ~10-30% slowdown and similar memory consumption increase (when we finish all tuning). I agree that Asan can well replace kmemcheck. We have plans to start working on Kernel MemorySanitizer that finds uses of unitialized memory. Asan+Msan will provide feature-parity with kmemcheck. As others noted, Asan will unlikely replace debug slab and pagealloc that can be enabled at runtime. Asan uses compiler instrumentation, so even if it is disabled, it still incurs visible overheads. Asan technology is easily portable to other architectures. Compiler instrumentation is fully portable. Runtime has some arch-dependent parts like shadow mapping and atomic operation interception. They are relatively easy to port." Comparison with other debugging features: ======================================== KMEMCHECK: - KASan can do almost everything that kmemcheck can. KASan uses compile-time instrumentation, which makes it significantly faster than kmemcheck. The only advantage of kmemcheck over KASan is detection of uninitialized memory reads. Some brief performance testing showed that kasan could be x500-x600 times faster than kmemcheck: $ netperf -l 30 MIGRATED TCP STREAM TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to localhost (127.0.0.1) port 0 AF_INET Recv Send Send Socket Socket Message Elapsed Size Size Size Time Throughput bytes bytes bytes secs. 10^6bits/sec no debug: 87380 16384 16384 30.00 41624.72 kasan inline: 87380 16384 16384 30.00 12870.54 kasan outline: 87380 16384 16384 30.00 10586.39 kmemcheck: 87380 16384 16384 30.03 20.23 - Also kmemcheck couldn't work on several CPUs. It always sets number of CPUs to 1. KASan doesn't have such limitation. DEBUG_PAGEALLOC: - KASan is slower than DEBUG_PAGEALLOC, but KASan works on sub-page granularity level, so it able to find more bugs. SLUB_DEBUG (poisoning, redzones): - SLUB_DEBUG has lower overhead than KASan. - SLUB_DEBUG in most cases are not able to detect bad reads, KASan able to detect both reads and writes. - In some cases (e.g. redzone overwritten) SLUB_DEBUG detect bugs only on allocation/freeing of object. KASan catch bugs right before it will happen, so we always know exact place of first bad read/write.

This is the page owner tracking code which is introduced so far ago. It is resident on Andrew's tree, though, nobody tried to upstream so it remain as is. Our company uses this feature actively to debug memory leak or to find a memory hogger so I decide to upstream this feature. This functionality help us to know who allocates the page. When allocating a page, we store some information about allocation in extra memory. Later, if we need to know status of all pages, we can get and analyze it from this stored information. In previous version of this feature, extra memory is statically defined in struct page, but, in this version, extra memory is allocated outside of struct page. It enables us to turn on/off this feature at boottime without considerable memory waste. Although we already have tracepoint for tracing page allocation/free, using it to analyze page owner is rather complex. We need to enlarge the trace buffer for preventing overlapping until userspace program launched. And, launched program continually dump out the trace buffer for later analysis and it would change system behaviour with more possibility rather than just keeping it in memory, so bad for debug. Moreover, we can use page_owner feature further for various purposes. For example, we can use it for fragmentation statistics implemented in this patch. And, I also plan to implement some CMA failure debugging feature using this interface. I'd like to give the credit for all developers contributed this feature, but, it's not easy because I don't know exact history. Sorry about that.

The "_MODULE" suffix is reserved for tristates compiled as loadable kernel modules (LKM). The "TEST_MODULE" feature thereby violates this convention. The feature is used to compile the lib/test_module.c kernel module. Sadly this convention is not made explicit, but the Kconfig code documents it. The following code (./scripts/kconfig/confdata.c) is used to generate the autoconf.h header file during the build process. When a feature is selected as a kernel module ('m'), it is suffixed with "_MODULE" to indicate it. switch (*value) { case 'n': break; case 'm': suffix = "_MODULE"; /* fall through */ This causes problems for static code analysis, which assumes a consistent use of the "_MODULE" suffix. This patch renames the feature and its reference in a Makefile to "TEST_LKM", which still expresses the test of a LKM.

However once the corrupted region is examined at a later stage, the outcome is undefined and often results in a sporadic page fault which cannot be handled.

Commit a8fe19eb ("kernel/printk: use symbolic defines for console loglevels") makes consistent use of symbolic values for printk() log levels. The naming scheme used is different from the one used for DEFAULT_MESSAGE_LOGLEVEL though. Change that symbol name to be MESSAGE_LOGLEVEL_DEFAULT for consistency. And because the value of that symbol comes from a similarly-named config option, rename CONFIG_DEFAULT_MESSAGE_LOGLEVEL as well.

Generic implementation of a resizable, scalable, concurrent hash table based on [0]. The implementation supports both, fixed size keys specified via an offset and length, or arbitrary keys via own hash and compare functions. Lookups are lockless and protected as RCU read side critical sections. Automatic growing/shrinking based on user configurable watermarks is available while allowing concurrent lookups to take place. Objects to be hashed must include a struct rhash_head. The reason for not using the existing struct hlist_head is that the expansion and shrinking will have two buckets point to a single entry which would lead in obscure reverse chaining behaviour. Code includes a boot selftest if CONFIG_TEST_RHASHTABLE is defined.

I found that a lot of unresolvable variables when using gdb on the kernel become resolvable when dwarf4 is enabled. So add a Kconfig flag to enable it. It definitely increases the debug information size, but on the other hand this isn't so bad when debug fusion is used. v2: Use cc-option Signed-off-by: NAndi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: NSam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Signed-off-by: NMichal Marek <mmarek@suse.cz>

This is an alternative approach to lower the overhead of debug info (as we discussed a few days ago) gcc 4.7+ and newer binutils have a new "split debug info" debug info model where the debug info is only written once into central ".dwo" files. This avoids having to copy it around multiple times, from the object files to the final executable. It lowers the disk space requirements. In addition it defaults to compressed debug data. More details here: http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/DebugFission This patch adds a new option to enable it. It has to be an option, because it'll undoubtedly break everyone's debuginfo packaging scheme. gdb/objdump/etc. all still work, if you have new enough versions. I don't see big compile wins (maybe a second or two faster or so), but the object dirs with debuginfo get significantly smaller. My standard kernel config (slightly bigger than defconfig) shrinks from 2.9G disk space to 1.1G objdir (with non reduced debuginfo). I presume if you are IO limited the compile time difference will be larger. Only problem I've seen so far is that it doesn't play well with older versions of ccache (apparently fixed, see https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10005) v2: various fixes from Dirk Gouders. Improve commit message slightly. v3: Fix clean rules and improve Kconfig slightly v4: Fix merge error in last version (Sam Ravnborg) Clarify description that it mainly helps disk size.

Create a module that allows udelay() to be executed to ensure that it is delaying at least as long as requested (with a little bit of error allowed). There are some configurations which don't have reliably udelay due to using a loop delay with cpufreq changes which should use a counter time based delay instead. This test aims to identify those configurations where timing is unreliable. Signed-off-by: NDavid Riley <davidriley@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: NJohn Stultz <john.stultz@linaro.org>
