      NOMMU: Teach kobjsize() about VMA regions. · ab2e83ea
      Paul Mundt 提交于
      Now that we no longer use compound pages for all large allocations,
      kobjsize() actively breaks things like binfmt_flat by always handing
      back PAGE_SIZE for mmap'ed regions. Fix this up by looking up the
      VMA region for non-compounds.
      
      Ideally binfmt_flat wants to get rid of kobjsize() completely, but
      this is an incremental step.

      NOMMU: Make mmap allocation page trimming behaviour configurable. · dd8632a1
      Paul Mundt 提交于
      NOMMU mmap allocates a piece of memory for an mmap that's rounded up in size to
      the nearest power-of-2 number of pages.  Currently it then discards the excess
      pages back to the page allocator, making that memory available for use by other
      things.  This can, however, cause greater amount of fragmentation.
      
      To counter this, a sysctl is added in order to fine-tune the trimming
      behaviour.  The default behaviour remains to trim pages aggressively, while
      this can either be disabled completely or set to a higher page-granular
      watermark in order to have finer-grained control.

      NOMMU: Make VMAs per MM as for MMU-mode linux · 8feae131
      David Howells 提交于
      Make VMAs per mm_struct as for MMU-mode linux.  This solves two problems:
      
       (1) In SYSV SHM where nattch for a segment does not reflect the number of
           shmat's (and forks) done.
      
       (2) In mmap() where the VMA's vm_mm is set to point to the parent mm by an
           exec'ing process when VM_EXECUTABLE is specified, regardless of the fact
           that a VMA might be shared and already have its vm_mm assigned to another
           process or a dead process.
      
      A new struct (vm_region) is introduced to track a mapped region and to remember
      the circumstances under which it may be shared and the vm_list_struct structure
      is discarded as it's no longer required.
      
      This patch makes the following additional changes:
      
       (1) Regions are now allocated with alloc_pages() rather than kmalloc() and
           with no recourse to __GFP_COMP, so the pages are not composite.  Instead,
           each page has a reference on it held by the region.  Anything else that is
           interested in such a page will have to get a reference on it to retain it.
           When the pages are released due to unmapping, each page is passed to
           put_page() and will be freed when the page usage count reaches zero.
      
       (2) Excess pages are trimmed after an allocation as the allocation must be
           made as a power-of-2 quantity of pages.
      
       (3) VMAs are added to the parent MM's R/B tree and mmap lists.  As an MM may
           end up with overlapping VMAs within the tree, the VMA struct address is
           appended to the sort key.
      
       (4) Non-anonymous VMAs are now added to the backing inode's prio list.
      
       (5) Holes may be punched in anonymous VMAs with munmap(), releasing parts of
           the backing region.  The VMA and region structs will be split if
           necessary.
      
       (6) sys_shmdt() only releases one attachment to a SYSV IPC shared memory
           segment instead of all the attachments at that addresss.  Multiple
           shmat()'s return the same address under NOMMU-mode instead of different
           virtual addresses as under MMU-mode.
      
       (7) Core dumping for ELF-FDPIC requires fewer exceptions for NOMMU-mode.
      
       (8) /proc/maps is now the global list of mapped regions, and may list bits
           that aren't actually mapped anywhere.
      
       (9) /proc/meminfo gains a line (tagged "MmapCopy") that indicates the amount
           of RAM currently allocated by mmap to hold mappable regions that can't be
           mapped directly.  These are copies of the backing device or file if not
           anonymous.
      
      These changes make NOMMU mode more similar to MMU mode.  The downside is that
      NOMMU mode requires some extra memory to track things over NOMMU without this
      patch (VMAs are no longer shared, and there are now region structs).

      mlock: mlocked pages are unevictable · b291f000
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      Make sure that mlocked pages also live on the unevictable LRU, so kswapd
      will not scan them over and over again.
      
      This is achieved through various strategies:
      
      1) add yet another page flag--PG_mlocked--to indicate that
         the page is locked for efficient testing in vmscan and,
         optionally, fault path.  This allows early culling of
         unevictable pages, preventing them from getting to
         page_referenced()/try_to_unmap().  Also allows separate
         accounting of mlock'd pages, as Nick's original patch
         did.
      
         Note:  Nick's original mlock patch used a PG_mlocked
         flag.  I had removed this in favor of the PG_unevictable
         flag + an mlock_count [new page struct member].  I
         restored the PG_mlocked flag to eliminate the new
         count field.
      
      2) add the mlock/unevictable infrastructure to mm/mlock.c,
         with internal APIs in mm/internal.h.  This is a rework
         of Nick's original patch to these files, taking into
         account that mlocked pages are now kept on unevictable
         LRU list.
      
      3) update vmscan.c:page_evictable() to check PageMlocked()
         and, if vma passed in, the vm_flags.  Note that the vma
         will only be passed in for new pages in the fault path;
         and then only if the "cull unevictable pages in fault
         path" patch is included.
      
      4) add try_to_unlock() to rmap.c to walk a page's rmap and
         ClearPageMlocked() if no other vmas have it mlocked.
         Reuses as much of try_to_unmap() as possible.  This
         effectively replaces the use of one of the lru list links
         as an mlock count.  If this mechanism let's pages in mlocked
         vmas leak through w/o PG_mlocked set [I don't know that it
         does], we should catch them later in try_to_unmap().  One
         hopes this will be rare, as it will be relatively expensive.

      nommu: Correct kobjsize() page validity checks. · 5a1603be
      Paul Mundt 提交于
      This implements a few changes on top of the recent kobjsize() refactoring
      introduced by commit 6cfd53fc.
      
      As Christoph points out:
      
      	virt_to_head_page cannot return NULL. virt_to_page also
      	does not return NULL. pfn_valid() needs to be used to
      	figure out if a page is valid.  Otherwise the page struct
      	reference that was returned may have PageReserved() set
      	to indicate that it is not a valid page.
      
      As discussed further in the thread, virt_addr_valid() is the preferable
      way to validate the object pointer in this case. In addition to fixing
      up the reserved page case, it also has the benefit of encapsulating the
      hack introduced by commit 4016a139 on
      the impacted platforms, allowing us to get rid of the extra checking in
      kobjsize() for the platforms that don't perform this type of bizarre
      memory_end abuse (every nommu platform that isn't blackfin). If blackfin
      decides to get in line with every other platform and use PageReserved
      for the DMA pages in question, kobjsize() will also continue to work
      fine.
      
      It also turns out that compound_order() will give us back 0-order for
      non-head pages, so we can get rid of the PageCompound check and just
      use compound_order() directly. Clean that up while we're at it.

      procfs task exe symlink · 925d1c40
      Matt Helsley 提交于
      The kernel implements readlink of /proc/pid/exe by getting the file from
      the first executable VMA.  Then the path to the file is reconstructed and
      reported as the result.
      
      Because of the VMA walk the code is slightly different on nommu systems.
      This patch avoids separate /proc/pid/exe code on nommu systems.  Instead of
      walking the VMAs to find the first executable file-backed VMA we store a
      reference to the exec'd file in the mm_struct.
      
      That reference would prevent the filesystem holding the executable file
      from being unmounted even after unmapping the VMAs.  So we track the number
      of VM_EXECUTABLE VMAs and drop the new reference when the last one is
      unmapped.  This avoids pinning the mounted filesystem.

      mm/nommu.c: return 0 from kobjsize with invalid objects · 4016a139
      Michael Hennerich 提交于
      Don't perform kobjsize operations on objects the kernel doesn't manage.
      
      On Blackfin, drivers can get dma coherent memory by calling a function
      dma_alloc_coherent(). We do this in nommu by configuring a chunk of uncached
      memory at the top of memory.
      
      Since we don't want the kernel to use the uncached memory, we lie to the
      kernel, and tell it that it's max memory is between 0, and the start of the
      uncached dma coherent section.
      
      this all works well, until this memory gets exposed into userspace (with a
      frame buffer), when you look at the process's maps, it shows the framebuf:
      
      root:/proc> cat maps
      [snip]
      03f0ef00-03f34700 rw-p 00000000 1f:00 192        /dev/fb0
      root:/proc>
      
      This is outside the "normal" range for the kernel. When the kernel tries to
      find the size of this object (when you run ps), it dies in nommu.c in
      kobjsize.
      
      BUG_ON(page->index >= MAX_ORDER);
      
      since the page we are referring to is outside what the kernel thinks is it's
      max valid memory.
      
      root:~> while [ 1 ]; ps > /dev/null; done
      kernel BUG at mm/nommu.c:119!
      Kernel panic - not syncing: BUG!
      
      We fixed this by adding a check to reject out of range object pointers as it
      already does that for NULL pointers.

      Security: round mmap hint address above mmap_min_addr · 7cd94146
      Eric Paris 提交于
      If mmap_min_addr is set and a process attempts to mmap (not fixed) with a
      non-null hint address less than mmap_min_addr the mapping will fail the
      security checks.  Since this is just a hint address this patch will round
      such a hint address above mmap_min_addr.
      
      gcj was found to try to be very frugal with vm usage and give hint addresses
      in the 8k-32k range.  Without this patch all such programs failed and with
      the patch they happily get a higher address.
      
      This patch is wrappad in CONFIG_SECURITY since mmap_min_addr doesn't exist
      without it and there would be no security check possible no matter what.  So
      we should not bother compiling in this rounding if it is just a waste of
      time.

      mm: fault feedback #1 · d0217ac0
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      Change ->fault prototype.  We now return an int, which contains
      VM_FAULT_xxx code in the low byte, and FAULT_RET_xxx code in the next byte.
       FAULT_RET_ code tells the VM whether a page was found, whether it has been
      locked, and potentially other things.  This is not quite the way he wanted
      it yet, but that's changed in the next patch (which requires changes to
      arch code).
      
      This means we no longer set VM_CAN_INVALIDATE in the vma in order to say
      that a page is locked which requires filemap_nopage to go away (because we
      can no longer remain backward compatible without that flag), but we were
      going to do that anyway.
      
      struct fault_data is renamed to struct vm_fault as Linus asked. address
      is now a void __user * that we should firmly encourage drivers not to use
      without really good reason.
      
      The page is now returned via a page pointer in the vm_fault struct.

      mm: merge populate and nopage into fault (fixes nonlinear) · 54cb8821
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      Nonlinear mappings are (AFAIKS) simply a virtual memory concept that encodes
      the virtual address -> file offset differently from linear mappings.
      
      ->populate is a layering violation because the filesystem/pagecache code
      should need to know anything about the virtual memory mapping.  The hitch here
      is that the ->nopage handler didn't pass down enough information (ie.  pgoff).
       But it is more logical to pass pgoff rather than have the ->nopage function
      calculate it itself anyway (because that's a similar layering violation).
      
      Having the populate handler install the pte itself is likewise a nasty thing
      to be doing.
      
      This patch introduces a new fault handler that replaces ->nopage and
      ->populate and (later) ->nopfn.  Most of the old mechanism is still in place
      so there is a lot of duplication and nice cleanups that can be removed if
      everyone switches over.
      
      The rationale for doing this in the first place is that nonlinear mappings are
      subject to the pagefault vs invalidate/truncate race too, and it seemed stupid
      to duplicate the synchronisation logic rather than just consolidate the two.
      
      After this patch, MAP_NONBLOCK no longer sets up ptes for pages present in
      pagecache.  Seems like a fringe functionality anyway.
      
      NOPAGE_REFAULT is removed.  This should be implemented with ->fault, and no
      users have hit mainline yet.

      security: Protection for exploiting null dereference using mmap · ed032189
      Eric Paris 提交于
      Add a new security check on mmap operations to see if the user is attempting
      to mmap to low area of the address space.  The amount of space protected is
      indicated by the new proc tunable /proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr and defaults to
      0, preserving existing behavior.
      
      This patch uses a new SELinux security class "memprotect."  Policy already
      contains a number of allow rules like a_t self:process * (unconfined_t being
      one of them) which mean that putting this check in the process class (its
      best current fit) would make it useless as all user processes, which we also
      want to protect against, would be allowed. By taking the memprotect name of
      the new class it will also make it possible for us to move some of the other
      memory protect permissions out of 'process' and into the new class next time
      we bump the policy version number (which I also think is a good future idea)

      move die notifier handling to common code · 1eeb66a1
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      This patch moves the die notifier handling to common code.  Previous
      various architectures had exactly the same code for it.  Note that the new
      code is compiled unconditionally, this should be understood as an appel to
      the other architecture maintainer to implement support for it aswell (aka
      sprinkling a notify_die or two in the proper place)
      
      arm had a notifiy_die that did something totally different, I renamed it to
      arm_notify_die as part of the patch and made it static to the file it's
      declared and used at.  avr32 used to pass slightly less information through
      this interface and I brought it into line with the other architectures.

      [PATCH] NOMMU: make SYSV SHM nattch work correctly · 165b2392
      David Howells 提交于
      Make the SYSV SHM nattch counter work correctly by forcing multiple VMAs to
      be produced to represent MAP_SHARED segments, even if they overlap exactly.
      
      Using this test program:

      [PATCH] uclinux: fix mmap() of directory for nommu case · f81cff0d
      Mike Frysinger 提交于
      I was playing with blackfin when i hit a neat bug ... doing an open() on a
      directory and then passing that fd to mmap() would cause the kernel to hang
      
      after poking into the code a bit more, i found that
      mm/nommu.c:validate_mmap_request() checks the length and if it is 0, just
      returns the address ... this is in stark contrast to mmu's
      mm/mmap.c:do_mmap_pgoff() where it returns -EINVAL for 0 length requests ...
      i then noticed that some other parts of the logic is out of date between the
      two funcs, so perhaps that's the easy fix ?

      [PATCH] NOMMU: Make futexes work under NOMMU conditions · 930e652a
      David Howells 提交于
      Make futexes work under NOMMU conditions.
      
      This can be tested by running this in one shell:
      
      	#define SYSERROR(X, Y) \
      		do { if ((long)(X) == -1L) { perror(Y); exit(1); }} while(0)
      
      	int main()
      	{
      		int shmid, tmp, *f, n;
      
      		shmid = shmget(23, 4, IPC_CREAT|0666);
      		SYSERROR(shmid, "shmget");
      
      		f = shmat(shmid, NULL, 0);
      		SYSERROR(f, "shmat");
      
      		n = *f;
      		printf("WAIT: %p{%x}\n", f, n);
      		tmp = futex(f, FUTEX_WAIT, n, NULL, NULL, 0);
      		SYSERROR(tmp, "futex");
      		printf("WAITED: %d\n", tmp);
      
      		tmp = shmdt(f);
      		SYSERROR(tmp, "shmdt");
      
      		exit(0);
      	}
      
      And then this in the other shell:
      
      	#define SYSERROR(X, Y) \
      		do { if ((long)(X) == -1L) { perror(Y); exit(1); }} while(0)
      
      	int main()
      	{
      		int shmid, tmp, *f;
      
      		shmid = shmget(23, 4, IPC_CREAT|0666);
      		SYSERROR(shmid, "shmget");
      
      		f = shmat(shmid, NULL, 0);
      		SYSERROR(f, "shmat");
      
      		(*f)++;
      		printf("WAKE: %p{%x}\n", f, *f);
      		tmp = futex(f, FUTEX_WAKE, 1, NULL, NULL, 0);
      		SYSERROR(tmp, "futex");
      		printf("WOKE: %d\n", tmp);
      
      		tmp = shmdt(f);
      		SYSERROR(tmp, "shmdt");
      
      		exit(0);
      	}
      
      The first program will set up a SYSV IPC SHM segment and wait on a futex in it
      for the number at the start to change.  The program will increment that number
      and wake the first program up.  This leads to output of the form:
      
      	SHELL 1			SHELL 2
      	=======================	=======================
      	# /dowait
      	WAIT: 0xc32ac000{0}
      				# /dowake
      				WAKE: 0xc32ac000{1}
      	WAITED: 0		WOKE: 1
