The choice containing the CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_PERFORMANCE symbol accidentally added a "CONFIG_" prefix when trying to make it the default, selecting an undefined symbol as the default. The mistake is harmless here: Since the default symbol is not visible, the choice falls back on using the visible symbol as the default instead, which is CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_PERFORMANCE, as intended.

build_all_zonelists gets a zone parameter to initialize zone's pagesets. There is only a single user which gives a non-NULL zone parameter and that one doesn't really need the rest of the build_all_zonelists (see commit 6dcd73d7 ("memory-hotplug: allocate zone's pcp before onlining pages")). Therefore remove setup_zone_pageset from build_all_zonelists and call it from its only user directly. This will also remove a pointless zonlists rebuilding which is always good.

This SLUB free list pointer obfuscation code is modified from Brad Spengler/PaX Team's code in the last public patch of grsecurity/PaX based on my understanding of the code. Changes or omissions from the original code are mine and don't reflect the original grsecurity/PaX code. This adds a per-cache random value to SLUB caches that is XORed with their freelist pointer address and value. This adds nearly zero overhead and frustrates the very common heap overflow exploitation method of overwriting freelist pointers. A recent example of the attack is written up here: http://cyseclabs.com/blog/cve-2016-6187-heap-off-by-one-exploit and there is a section dedicated to the technique the book "A Guide to Kernel Exploitation: Attacking the Core". This is based on patches by Daniel Micay, and refactored to minimize the use of #ifdef. With 200-count cycles of "hackbench -g 20 -l 1000" I saw the following run times: before: mean 10.11882499999999999995 variance .03320378329145728642 stdev .18221905304181911048 after: mean 10.12654000000000000014 variance .04700556623115577889 stdev .21680767106160192064 The difference gets lost in the noise, but if the above is to be taken literally, using CONFIG_FREELIST_HARDENED is 0.07% slower.

The percpu memory allocator is experiencing scalability issues when allocating and freeing large numbers of counters as in BPF. Additionally, there is a corner case where iteration is triggered over all chunks if the contig_hint is the right size, but wrong alignment. This patch replaces the area map allocator with a basic bitmap allocator implementation. Each subsequent patch will introduce new features and replace full scanning functions with faster non-scanning options when possible. Implementation: This patchset removes the area map allocator in favor of a bitmap allocator backed by metadata blocks. The primary goal is to provide consistency in performance and memory footprint with a focus on small allocations (< 64 bytes). The bitmap removes the heavy memmove from the freeing critical path and provides a consistent memory footprint. The metadata blocks provide a bound on the amount of scanning required by maintaining a set of hints. In an effort to make freeing fast, the metadata is updated on the free path if the new free area makes a page free, a block free, or spans across blocks. This causes the chunk's contig hint to potentially be smaller than what it could allocate by up to the smaller of a page or a block. If the chunk's contig hint is contained within a block, a check occurs and the hint is kept accurate. Metadata is always kept accurate on allocation, so there will not be a situation where a chunk has a later contig hint than available. Evaluation: I have primarily done testing against a simple workload of allocation of 1 million objects (2^20) of varying size. Deallocation was done by in order, alternating, and in reverse. These numbers were collected after rebasing ontop of a80099a1. I present the worst-case numbers here: Area Map Allocator: Object Size | Alloc Time (ms) | Free Time (ms) ---------------------------------------------- 4B | 310 | 4770 16B | 557 | 1325 64B | 436 | 273 256B | 776 | 131 1024B | 3280 | 122 Bitmap Allocator: Object Size | Alloc Time (ms) | Free Time (ms) ---------------------------------------------- 4B | 490 | 70 16B | 515 | 75 64B | 610 | 80 256B | 950 | 100 1024B | 3520 | 200 This data demonstrates the inability for the area map allocator to handle less than ideal situations. In the best case of reverse deallocation, the area map allocator was able to perform within range of the bitmap allocator. In the worst case situation, freeing took nearly 5 seconds for 1 million 4-byte objects. The bitmap allocator dramatically improves the consistency of the free path. The small allocations performed nearly identical regardless of the freeing pattern. While it does add to the allocation latency, the allocation scenario here is optimal for the area map allocator. The area map allocator runs into trouble when it is allocating in chunks where the latter half is full. It is difficult to replicate this, so I present a variant where the pages are second half filled. Freeing was done sequentially. Below are the numbers for this scenario: Area Map Allocator: Object Size | Alloc Time (ms) | Free Time (ms) ---------------------------------------------- 4B | 4118 | 4892 16B | 1651 | 1163 64B | 598 | 285 256B | 771 | 158 1024B | 3034 | 160 Bitmap Allocator: Object Size | Alloc Time (ms) | Free Time (ms) ---------------------------------------------- 4B | 481 | 67 16B | 506 | 69 64B | 636 | 75 256B | 892 | 90 1024B | 3262 | 147 The data shows a parabolic curve of performance for the area map allocator. This is due to the memmove operation being the dominant cost with the lower object sizes as more objects are packed in a chunk and at higher object sizes, the traversal of the chunk slots is the dominating cost. The bitmap allocator suffers this problem as well. The above data shows the inability to scale for the allocation path with the area map allocator and that the bitmap allocator demonstrates consistent performance in general. The second problem of additional scanning can result in the area map allocator completing in 52 minutes when trying to allocate 1 million 4-byte objects with 8-byte alignment. The same workload takes approximately 16 seconds to complete for the bitmap allocator. V2: Fixed a bug in pcpu_alloc_first_chunk end_offset was setting the bitmap using bytes instead of bits. Added a comment to pcpu_cnt_pop_pages to explain bitmap_weight. Signed-off-by: NDennis Zhou <dennisszhou@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: NJosef Bacik <jbacik@fb.com> Signed-off-by: NTejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

Differentiate the MS_* flags passed to mount(2) from the internal flags set in the super_block's s_flags. s_flags are now called SB_*, with the names and the values for the moment mirroring the MS_* flags that they're equivalent to. In this patch, just the headers are altered and some kernel code where blind automated conversion isn't necessarily correct. Note that this shows up some interesting issues: (1) Some MS_* flags get translated to MNT_* flags (such as MS_NODEV -> MNT_NODEV) without passing this on to the filesystem, but some filesystems set such flags anyway. (2) The ->remount_fs() methods of some filesystems adjust the *flags argument by setting MS_* flags in it, such as MS_NOATIME - but these flags are then scrubbed by do_remount_sb() (only the occupants of MS_RMT_MASK are permitted: MS_RDONLY, MS_SYNCHRONOUS, MS_MANDLOCK, MS_I_VERSION and MS_LAZYTIME) I'm not sure what's the best way to solve all these cases.

Some hardened environments want to build kernels with slab_nomerge already set (so that they do not depend on remembering to set the kernel command line option). This is desired to reduce the risk of kernel heap overflows being able to overwrite objects from merged caches and changes the requirements for cache layout control, increasing the difficulty of these attacks. By keeping caches unmerged, these kinds of exploits can usually only damage objects in the same cache (though the risk to metadata exploitation is unchanged).

RCU's Kconfig options are scattered, and there are enough of them that it would be good for them to be more centralized. This commit therefore extracts RCU's Kconfig options from init/Kconfig into a new kernel/rcu/Kconfig file. Reported-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: NPaul E.

The CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU_ALL, CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU_NONE, and CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU_ZERO Kconfig options are used only in testing and are redundant with the rcu_nocbs= boot parameter. This commit therefore removes these three Kconfig options and adjusts the rcutorture scripts to use the boot parameter instead. Signed-off-by: NPaul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

The rcu_segcblist structure provides quite a bit of functionality, and Tiny SRCU needs almost none of it. So this commit replaces Tiny SRCU's uses of rcu_segcblist with a simple singly linked list with tail pointer. This change significantly reduces Tiny SRCU's memory footprint, more than making up for the growth caused by the creation of rcu_segcblist.c Signed-off-by: NPaul E.

Commit d160a727 ("srcu: Make SRCU be built by default") in response to build errors, which were caused by code that included srcu.h despite !SRCU. However, srcutiny.o is almost 2K of code, which is not insignificant for those attempting to run the Linux kernel on IoT devices. This commit therefore makes SRCU be once again optional, and adjusts srcu.h to allow error-free inclusion in !SRCU kernel builds. Signed-off-by: NPaul E.

might_sleep() and smp_processor_id() checks are enabled after the boot process is done. That hides bugs in the SMP bringup and driver initialization code. Enable it right when the scheduler starts working, i.e. when init task and kthreadd have been created and right before the idle task enables preemption.

Some of the boot code in init_kernel_freeable() which runs before SMP bringup assumes (rightfully) that it runs on the boot CPU and therefore can use smp_processor_id() in preemptible context. That works so far because the smp_processor_id() check starts to be effective after smp bringup. That's just wrong. Starting with SMP bringup and the ability to move threads around, smp_processor_id() in preemptible context is broken. Aside of that it does not make sense to allow init to run on all CPUs before sched_smp_init() has been run. Pin the init to the boot CPU so the existing code can continue to use smp_processor_id() without triggering the checks when the enabling of those checks starts earlier.

sys_newlstat is a system call implementation that is meant for user space, and that copies kernel-internal data structure to the user format, which is not needed for in-kernel users. Further, as we rearrange the system call implementation so we can extend it with 64-bit time_t, the prototype for sys_newlstat changes. This changes the initramfs code to use vfs_lstat directly, to get it out of the way of the time_t changes, and make it slightly more efficient in the process. Along the same lines we also replace sys_stat and sys_stat64 with vfs_stat.

Many "embedded" architectures provide CMDLINE_FORCE to allow the kernel to override the command line provided by an inflexible bootloader. However there is currrently no way for the kernel to override the initramfs image provided by the bootloader meaning there are still ways for bootloaders to make things difficult for us. Fix this by introducing INITRAMFS_FORCE which can prevent the kernel from loading the bootloader supplied image. We use CMDLINE_FORCE (and its friend CMDLINE_EXTEND) to imply that the system has an inflexible bootloader. This allow us to avoid presenting this config option to users of systems where inflexible bootloaders aren't usually a problem.

In OpenRISC we do not have a bootloader passed initrd, but the built in initramfs does contain the /init and other binaries, including modules. The previous commit 08865514 ("initramfs: finish fput() before accessing any binary from initramfs") made a change to only call fput() if the bootloader initrd was available, this caused intermittent crashes for OpenRISC. This patch changes the fput() to happen unconditionally if any rootfs is loaded. Also, I added some comments to make it a bit more clear why we call unpack_to_rootfs() multiple times.

If the CONFIG_SRCU option is not selected, for example, when building arch/tile allnoconfig, the following build errors appear: kernel/rcu/tree.o: In function `srcu_online_cpu': tree.c:(.text+0x4248): multiple definition of `srcu_online_cpu' kernel/rcu/srcutree.o:srcutree.c:(.text+0x2120): first defined here kernel/rcu/tree.o: In function `srcu_offline_cpu': tree.c:(.text+0x4250): multiple definition of `srcu_offline_cpu' kernel/rcu/srcutree.o:srcutree.c:(.text+0x2160): first defined here The corresponding .config file shows CONFIG_TREE_SRCU=y, but no sign of CONFIG_SRCU, which fatally confuses SRCU's #ifdefs, resulting in the above errors. The reason this occurs is the folowing line in init/Kconfig's definition for TREE_SRCU: default y if !TINY_RCU && !CLASSIC_SRCU If CONFIG_CLASSIC_SRCU=n, as it will be in for allnoconfig, and if CONFIG_SMP=y, then we will get CONFIG_TREE_SRCU=y but no CONFIG_SRCU, as seen in the .config file, and which will result in the above errors. This error did not show up during rcutorture testing because rcutorture forces CONFIG_SRCU=y, as it must to prevent build errors in rcutorture.c. This commit therefore conditions TREE_SRCU (and TINY_SRCU, while it is at it) with SRCU, like this: default y if SRCU && !TINY_RCU && !CLASSIC_SRCU Reported-by: Nkbuild test robot <fengguang.wu@intel.com> Reported-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: NPaul E.

The TREE_SRCU rewrite is large and a bit on the non-simple side, so this commit helps reduce risk by allowing the old v4.11 SRCU algorithm to be selected using a new CLASSIC_SRCU Kconfig option that depends on RCU_EXPERT. The default is to use the new TREE_SRCU and TINY_SRCU algorithms, in order to help get these the testing that they need. However, if your users do not require the update-side scalability that is to be provided by TREE_SRCU, select RCU_EXPERT and then CLASSIC_SRCU to revert back to the old classic SRCU algorithm.

Relying on free_reserved_area() to call ftrace to free init memory proved to not be sufficient. The issue is that on x86, when debug_pagealloc is enabled, the init memory is not freed, but simply set as not present. Since ftrace was uninformed of this, starting function tracing still tries to update pages that are not present according to the page tables, causing ftrace to bug, as well as killing the kernel itself. Instead of relying on free_reserved_area(), have init/main.c call ftrace directly just before it frees the init memory. Then it needs to use __init_begin and __init_end to know where the init memory location is. Looking at all archs (and testing what I can), it appears that this should work for each of them.
