      PM / sleep: Make it possible to quiesce timers during suspend-to-idle · 124cf911
      Rafael J. Wysocki 提交于
      The efficiency of suspend-to-idle depends on being able to keep CPUs
      in the deepest available idle states for as much time as possible.
      Ideally, they should only be brought out of idle by system wakeup
      interrupts.
      
      However, timer interrupts occurring periodically prevent that from
      happening and it is not practical to chase all of the "misbehaving"
      timers in a whack-a-mole fashion.  A much more effective approach is
      to suspend the local ticks for all CPUs and the entire timekeeping
      along the lines of what is done during full suspend, which also
      helps to keep suspend-to-idle and full suspend reasonably similar.
      
      The idea is to suspend the local tick on each CPU executing
      cpuidle_enter_freeze() and to make the last of them suspend the
      entire timekeeping.  That should prevent timer interrupts from
      triggering until an IO interrupt wakes up one of the CPUs.  It
      needs to be done with interrupts disabled on all of the CPUs,
      though, because otherwise the suspended clocksource might be
      accessed by an interrupt handler which might lead to fatal
      consequences.
      
      Unfortunately, the existing ->enter callbacks provided by cpuidle
      drivers generally cannot be used for implementing that, because some
      of them re-enable interrupts temporarily and some idle entry methods
      cause interrupts to be re-enabled automatically on exit.  Also some
      of these callbacks manipulate local clock event devices of the CPUs
      which really shouldn't be done after suspending their ticks.
      
      To overcome that difficulty, introduce a new cpuidle state callback,
      ->enter_freeze, that will be guaranteed (1) to keep interrupts
      disabled all the time (and return with interrupts disabled) and (2)
      not to touch the CPU timer devices.  Modify cpuidle_enter_freeze() to
      look for the deepest available idle state with ->enter_freeze present
      and to make the CPU execute that callback with suspended tick (and the
      last of the online CPUs to execute it with suspended timekeeping).

      kasan: enable instrumentation of global variables · bebf56a1
      Andrey Ryabinin 提交于
      This feature let us to detect accesses out of bounds of global variables.
      This will work as for globals in kernel image, so for globals in modules.
      Currently this won't work for symbols in user-specified sections (e.g.
      __init, __read_mostly, ...)
      
      The idea of this is simple.  Compiler increases each global variable by
      redzone size and add constructors invoking __asan_register_globals()
      function.  Information about global variable (address, size, size with
      redzone ...) passed to __asan_register_globals() so we could poison
      variable's redzone.
      
      This patch also forces module_alloc() to return 8*PAGE_SIZE aligned
      address making shadow memory handling (
      kasan_module_alloc()/kasan_module_free() ) more simple.  Such alignment
      guarantees that each shadow page backing modules address space correspond
      to only one module_alloc() allocation.

      module: fix types of device tables aliases · 6301939d
      Andrey Ryabinin 提交于
      MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() macro used to create aliases to device tables.
      Normally alias should have the same type as aliased symbol.
      
      Device tables are arrays, so they have 'struct type##_device_id[x]'
      types. Alias created by MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() will have non-array type -
      	'struct type##_device_id'.
      
      This inconsistency confuses compiler, it could make a wrong assumption
      about variable's size which leads KASan to produce a false positive report
      about out of bounds access.
      
      For every global variable compiler calls __asan_register_globals() passing
      information about global variable (address, size, size with redzone, name
      ...) __asan_register_globals() poison symbols redzone to detect possible
      out of bounds accesses.
      
      When symbol has an alias __asan_register_globals() will be called as for
      symbol so for alias.  Compiler determines size of variable by size of
      variable's type.  Alias and symbol have the same address, so if alias have
      the wrong size part of memory that actually belongs to the symbol could be
      poisoned as redzone of alias symbol.
      
      By fixing type of alias symbol we will fix size of it, so
      __asan_register_globals() will not poison valid memory.

      kernel: add support for .init_array.* constructors · 9ddf8252
      Andrey Ryabinin 提交于
      KASan uses constructors for initializing redzones for global variables.
      Globals instrumentation in GCC 4.9.2 produces constructors with priority
      (.init_array.00099)
      
      Currently kernel ignores such constructors.  Only constructors with
      default priority supported (.init_array)
      
      This patch adds support for constructors with priorities.  For kernel
      image we put pointers to constructors between __ctors_start/__ctors_end
      and do_ctors() will call them on start up.  For modules we merge
      .init_array.* sections into resulting .init_array.  Module code properly
      handles constructors in .init_array section.

      For instrumenting global variables KASan will shadow memory backing memory

      allocated in module_alloc().
      
      __vmalloc_node_range() could be used for this purpose, except it puts a

      problem because at some future point we might need to have a shadow memory
      at address occupied by guard hole.  So we could fail to allocate shadow
      for module_alloc().
      
      Now we have VM_NO_GUARD flag disabling guard page, so we need to pass into
      __vmalloc_node_range().  Add new parameter 'vm_flags' to
      __vmalloc_node_range() function.

      With this patch kasan will be able to catch bugs in memory allocated by
      slub.  Initially all objects in newly allocated slab page, marked as
      redzone.  Later, when allocation of slub object happens, requested by
      caller number of bytes marked as accessible, and the rest of the object
      (including slub's metadata) marked as redzone (inaccessible).
      
      We also mark object as accessible if ksize was called for this object.
      There is some places in kernel where ksize function is called to inquire
      size of really allocated area.  Such callers could validly access whole
      allocated memory, so it should be marked as accessible.
      
      Code in slub.c and slab_common.c files could validly access to object's
      metadata, so instrumentation for this files are disabled.

      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

      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.

      cpumask: always use nr_cpu_ids in formatting and parsing functions · 513e3d2d
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      bitmap implements two variants of scnprintf functions to format a bitmap
      into a string and cpumask and nodemask wrap them to provide equivalent
      interfaces.  The scnprintf family of functions require a string buffer as
      an output target which complicates code paths which just want to print out
      the mask through printk for informational or debug purposes as they have
      to worry about how large the buffer should be and whether it's too large
      to allocate on stack.
      
      Neither cpumask or nodemask provides a guildeline on how large the target
      buffer should be forcing users come up with their own solutions - some
      allocate an arbitrarily sized buffer which is small enough to allocate on
      stack but may be too short in corner cases, other come up with a custom
      upper limit calculation considering the output format, some allocate the
      buffer dynamically while one resorted to using lock to synchronize access
      to a static buffer.
      
      This is an artificial problem which is being solved repeatedly for no
      benefit.  In a lot of cases, the output area already exists and can be
      targeted directly making the intermediate buffer unnecessary.  This
      patchset teaches printf family of functions how to format bitmaps and
      replace the dedicated formatting functions with it.
      
      Pointer formatting is extended to cover bitmap formatting.  It uses the
      field width for the number of bits instead of precision.  The format used
      is '%*pb[l]', with the optional trailing 'l' specifying list format
      instead of hex masks.  For more details, please see 0002.
      
      This patch (of 31):
      
      Currently, the formatting and parsing functions in cpumask.h use
      nr_cpumask_bits like other cpumask functions; however, nr_cpumask_bits
      is either NR_CPUS or nr_cpu_ids depending on CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK.
      This leads to inconsistent behaviors.
      
      With CONFIG_NR_CPUS=512 and !CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK
      
        # cat /sys/devices/virtual/net/lo/queues/rx-0/rps_cpus
        00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000
        # cat /proc/self/status | grep Cpus_allowed:
        Cpus_allowed:   f
      
      With CONFIG_NR_CPUS=1024 and CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK (fedora default)
      
        # cat /sys/devices/virtual/net/lo/queues/rx-0/rps_cpus
        0
        # cat /proc/self/status | grep Cpus_allowed:
        Cpus_allowed:   f
      
      Note that /proc/self/status is always using nr_cpu_ids regardless of
      config.  This is because seq cpumask formattings functions always use
      nr_cpu_ids.
      
      Given that the same output fields may switch between the two forms,
      converging on nr_cpu_ids always isn't too likely to surprise userland.
      This patch updates the formatting and parsing functions in cpumask.h
      to always use nr_cpu_ids.  There's no point in dealing with CPUs which
      aren't even possible on the machine.

      kernfs: remove KERNFS_STATIC_NAME · dfeb0750
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      When a new kernfs node is created, KERNFS_STATIC_NAME is used to avoid
      making a separate copy of its name.  It's currently only used for sysfs
      attributes whose filenames are required to stay accessible and unchanged.
      There are rare exceptions where these names are allocated and formatted
      dynamically but for the vast majority of cases they're consts in the
      rodata section.
      
      Now that kernfs is converted to use kstrdup_const() and kfree_const(),
      there's little point in keeping KERNFS_STATIC_NAME around.  Remove it.

      mm/util: add kstrdup_const · a4bb1e43
      Andrzej Hajda 提交于
      kstrdup() is often used to duplicate strings where neither source neither
      destination will be ever modified.  In such case we can just reuse the
      source instead of duplicating it.  The problem is that we must be sure
      that the source is non-modifiable and its life-time is long enough.
      
      I suspect the good candidates for such strings are strings located in
      kernel .rodata section, they cannot be modifed because the section is
      read-only and their life-time is equal to kernel life-time.
      
      This small patchset proposes alternative version of kstrdup -
      kstrdup_const, which returns source string if it is located in .rodata
      otherwise it fallbacks to kstrdup.  To verify if the source is in
      .rodata function checks if the address is between sentinels
      __start_rodata, __end_rodata.  I guess it should work with all
      architectures.
      
      The main patch is accompanied by four patches constifying kstrdup for
      cases where situtation described above happens frequently.
      
      I have tested the patchset on mobile platform (exynos4210-trats) and it
      saves 3272 string allocations.  Since minimal allocation is 32 or 64
      bytes depending on Kconfig options the patchset saves respectively about
      100KB or 200KB of memory.
      
      Stats from tested platform show that the main offender is sysfs:
      
      By caller:
        2260 __kernfs_new_node
          631 clk_register+0xc8/0x1b8
          318 clk_register+0x34/0x1b8
            51 kmem_cache_create
            12 alloc_vfsmnt
      
      By string (with count >= 5):
          883 power
          876 subsystem
          135 parameters
          132 device
           61 iommu_group
          ...
      
      This patch (of 5):
      
      Add an alternative version of kstrdup which returns pointer to constant
      char array.  The function checks if input string is in persistent and
      read-only memory section, if yes it returns the input string, otherwise it
      fallbacks to kstrdup.
      
      kstrdup_const is accompanied by kfree_const performing conditional memory
      deallocation of the string.

      lib: bitmap: change bitmap_shift_left to take unsigned parameters · dba94c25
      Rasmus Villemoes 提交于
      gcc can generate slightly better code for stuff like "nbits %
      BITS_PER_LONG" when it knows nbits is not negative.  Since negative size
      bitmaps or shift amounts don't make sense, change these parameters of
      bitmap_shift_right to unsigned.
      
      If off >= lim (which requires shift >= nbits), k is initialized with a
      large positive value, but since I've let k continue to be signed, the loop
      will never run and dst will be zeroed as expected.  Inside the loop, k is
      guaranteed to be non-negative, so the fact that it is promoted to unsigned
      in the various expressions it appears in is harmless.
      
      Also use "shift" and "nbits" consistently for the parameter names.

      I've previously changed the nbits parameter of most bitmap_* functions to
      unsigned; now it is bitmap_shift_{left,right}'s turn.  This alone saves
      some .text, but while at it I found that there were a few other things one
      could do.  The end result of these seven patches is
      
        $ scripts/bloat-o-meter /tmp/bitmap.o.{old,new}
        add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/2 up/down: 0/-328 (-328)
        function                                     old     new   delta
        __bitmap_shift_right                         384     226    -158
        __bitmap_shift_left                          306     136    -170
      
      and less importantly also a smaller stack footprint
      
        $ stack-o-meter.pl master bitmap
        file                 function                       old  new  delta
        lib/bitmap.o         __bitmap_shift_right             24    8  -16
        lib/bitmap.o         __bitmap_shift_left              24    0  -24
      
      For each pair of 0 <= shift <= nbits <= 256 I've tested the end result
      with a few randomly filled src buffers (including garbage beyond nbits),
      in each case verifying that the shift {left,right}-most bits of dst are
      zero and the remaining nbits-shift bits correspond to src, so I'm fairly
      confident I didn't screw up.  That hasn't stopped me from being wrong
      before, though.
      
      This patch (of 7):
      
      gcc can generate slightly better code for stuff like "nbits %
      BITS_PER_LONG" when it knows nbits is not negative.  Since negative size
      bitmaps or shift amounts don't make sense, change these parameters of
      bitmap_shift_right to unsigned.
      
      The expressions involving "lim - 1" are still ok, since if lim is 0 the
      loop is never executed.
      
      Also use "shift" and "nbits" consistently for the parameter names.
