futex_wait_requeue_pi() calls futex_wait_setup(). If futex_wait_setup() succeeds it returns with hb->lock held and preemption disabled. Now the sanity check after this does: if (match_futex(&q.key, &key2)) { ret = -EINVAL; goto out_put_keys; } which releases the keys but does not release hb->lock. So we happily return to user space with hb->lock held and therefor preemption disabled. Unlock hb->lock before taking the exit route.

futex_lock_pi_atomic() is a maze of retry hoops and loops. Reduce it to simple and understandable states: First step is to lookup existing waiters (state) in the kernel. If there is an existing waiter, validate it and attach to it. If there is no existing waiter, check the user space value If the TID encoded in the user space value is 0, take over the futex preserving the owner died bit. If the TID encoded in the user space value is != 0, lookup the owner task, validate it and attach to it. Reduces text size by 128 bytes on x8664.

The kernel tries to atomically unlock the futex without checking whether there is kernel state associated to the futex. So if user space manipulated the user space value, this will leave kernel internal state around associated to the owner task. For robustness sake, lookup first whether there are waiters on the futex. If there are waiters, wake the top priority waiter with all the proper sanity checks applied. If there are no waiters, do the atomic release. We do not have to preserve the waiters bit in this case, because a potentially incoming waiter is blocked on the hb->lock and will acquire the futex atomically. We neither have to preserve the owner died bit. The caller is the owner and it was supposed to cleanup the mess.

The current implementation of lookup_pi_state has ambigous handling of the TID value 0 in the user space futex. We can get into the kernel even if the TID value is 0, because either there is a stale waiters bit or the owner died bit is set or we are called from the requeue_pi path or from user space just for fun. The current code avoids an explicit sanity check for pid = 0 in case that kernel internal state (waiters) are found for the user space address. This can lead to state leakage and worse under some circumstances. Handle the cases explicit: Waiter | pi_state | pi->owner | uTID | uODIED | ?

The waiter is queued on a non PI futex [4] Valid state after exit_robust_list(), which sets the user space value to FUTEX_WAITERS | FUTEX_OWNER_DIED.

If that is the current task, then we can safely return -EDEADLK.

Jan Stancek reported: "pthread_cond_broadcast/4-1.c testcase from openposix testsuite (LTP) occasionally fails, because some threads fail to wake up. Testcase creates 5 threads, which are all waiting on same condition. Main thread then calls pthread_cond_broadcast() without holding mutex, which calls: futex(uaddr1, FUTEX_CMP_REQUEUE_PRIVATE, 1, 2147483647, uaddr2, ..) This immediately wakes up single thread A, which unlocks mutex and tries to wake up another thread: futex(uaddr2, FUTEX_WAKE_PRIVATE, 1) If thread A manages to call futex_wake() before any waiters are requeued for uaddr2, no other thread is woken up" The ordering constraints for the hash bucket waiter counting are that the waiter counts have to be incremented _before_ getting the spinlock (because the spinlock acts as part of the memory barrier), but the "requeue" operation didn't honor those rules, and nobody had even thought about that case. This fairly simple patch just increments the waiter count for the target hash bucket (hb2) when requeing a futex before taking the locks. It then decrements them again after releasing the lock - the code that actually moves the futex(es) between hash buckets will do the additional required waiter count housekeeping.

Srikar Dronamraju reports that commit b0c29f79 ("futexes: Avoid taking the hb->lock if there's nothing to wake up") causes java threads getting stuck on futexes when runing specjbb on a power7 numa box. The cause appears to be that the powerpc spinlocks aren't using the same ticket lock model that we use on x86 (and other) architectures, which in turn result in the "spin_is_locked()" test in hb_waiters_pending() occasionally reporting an unlocked spinlock even when there are pending waiters. So this reinstates Davidlohr Bueso's original explicit waiter counting code, which I had convinced Davidlohr to drop in favor of figuring out the pending waiters by just using the existing state of the spinlock and the wait queue.

Turn the pi-chains from plist to rb-tree, in the rt_mutex code, and provide a proper comparison function for -deadline and -priority tasks. This is done mainly because: - classical prio field of the plist is just an int, which might not be enough for representing a deadline; - manipulating such a list would become O(nr_deadline_tasks), which might be to much, as the number of -deadline task increases. Therefore, an rb-tree is used, and tasks are queued in it according to the following logic: - among two -priority (i.e., SCHED_BATCH/OTHER/RR/FIFO) tasks, the one with the higher (lower, actually!) prio wins; - among a -priority and a -deadline task, the latter always wins; - among two -deadline tasks, the one with the earliest deadline wins. Queueing and dequeueing functions are changed accordingly, for both the list of a task's pi-waiters and the list of tasks blocked on a pi-lock.

In futex_wake() there is clearly no point in taking the hb->lock if we know beforehand that there are no tasks to be woken. While the hash bucket's plist head is a cheap way of knowing this, we cannot rely 100% on it as there is a racy window between the futex_wait call and when the task is actually added to the plist. To this end, we couple it with the spinlock check as tasks trying to enter the critical region are most likely potential waiters that will be added to the plist, thus preventing tasks sleeping forever if wakers don't acknowledge all possible waiters. Furthermore, the futex ordering guarantees are preserved, ensuring that waiters either observe the changed user space value before blocking or is woken by a concurrent waker. For wakers, this is done by relying on the barriers in get_futex_key_refs() -- for archs that do not have implicit mb in atomic_inc(), we explicitly add them through a new futex_get_mm function. For waiters we rely on the fact that spin_lock calls already update the head counter, so spinners are visible even if the lock hasn't been acquired yet. For more details please refer to the updated comments in the code and related discussion: https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/11/26/556 Special thanks to tglx for careful review and feedback.

Currently, the futex global hash table suffers from its fixed, smallish (for today's standards) size of 256 entries, as well as its lack of NUMA awareness. Large systems, using many futexes, can be prone to high amounts of collisions; where these futexes hash to the same bucket and lead to extra contention on the same hb->lock. Furthermore, cacheline bouncing is a reality when we have multiple hb->locks residing on the same cacheline and different futexes hash to adjacent buckets. This patch keeps the current static size of 16 entries for small systems, or otherwise, 256 * ncpus (or larger as we need to round the number to a power of 2). Note that this number of CPUs accounts for all CPUs that can ever be available in the system, taking into consideration things like hotpluging. While we do impose extra overhead at bootup by making the hash table larger, this is a one time thing, and does not shadow the benefits of this patch. Furthermore, as suggested by tglx, by cache aligning the hash buckets we can avoid access across cacheline boundaries and also avoid massive cache line bouncing if multiple cpus are hammering away at different hash buckets which happen to reside in the same cache line.

When debugging the read-only hugepage case, I was confused by the fact that get_futex_key() did an access_ok() only for the non-shared futex case, since the user address checking really isn't in any way specific to the private key handling. Now, it turns out that the shared key handling does effectively do the equivalent checks inside get_user_pages_fast() (it doesn't actually check the address range on x86, but does check the page protections for being a user page). So it wasn't actually a bug, but the fact that we treat the address differently for private and shared futexes threw me for a loop. Just move the check up, so that it gets done for both cases. Also, use the 'rw' parameter for the type, even if it doesn't actually matter any more (it's a historical artifact of the old racy i386 "page faults from kernel space don't check write protections").

The hugepage code had the exact same bug that regular pages had in commit 7485d0d3 ("futexes: Remove rw parameter from get_futex_key()"). The regular page case was fixed by commit 9ea71503 ("futex: Fix regression with read only mappings"), but the transparent hugepage case (added in a5b338f2: "thp: update futex compound knowledge") case remained broken.

The futex_keys of process shared futexes are generated from the page offset, the mapping host and the mapping index of the futex user space address. This should result in an unique identifier for each futex. Though this is not true when futexes are located in different subpages of an hugepage. The reason is, that the mapping index for all those futexes evaluates to the index of the base page of the hugetlbfs mapping. So a futex at offset 0 of the hugepage mapping and another one at offset PAGE_SIZE of the same hugepage mapping have identical futex_keys. This happens because the futex code blindly uses page->index. Steps to reproduce the bug: 1. Map a file from hugetlbfs. Initialize pthread_mutex1 at offset 0 and pthread_mutex2 at offset PAGE_SIZE of the hugetlbfs mapping. The mutexes must be initialized as PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED because PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE mutexes are not affected by this issue as their keys solely depend on the user space address. 2. Lock mutex1 and mutex2 3. Create thread1 and in the thread function lock mutex1, which results in thread1 blocking on the locked mutex1. 4. Create thread2 and in the thread function lock mutex2, which results in thread2 blocking on the locked mutex2. 5. Unlock mutex2. Despite the fact that mutex2 got unlocked, thread2 still blocks on mutex2 because the futex_key points to mutex1. To solve this issue we need to take the normal page index of the page which contains the futex into account, if the futex is in an hugetlbfs mapping. In other words, we calculate the normal page mapping index of the subpage in the hugetlbfs mapping. Mappings which are not based on hugetlbfs are not affected and still use page->index. Thanks to Mel Gorman who provided a patch for adding proper evaluation functions to the hugetlbfs code to avoid exposing hugetlbfs specific details to the futex code.

Dave Jones reported a bug with futex_lock_pi() that his trinity test exposed. Sometime between queue_me() and taking the q.lock_ptr, the lock_ptr became NULL, resulting in a crash. While futex_wake() is careful to not call wake_futex() on futex_q's with a pi_state or an rt_waiter (which are either waiting for a futex_unlock_pi() or a PI futex_requeue()), futex_wake_op() and futex_requeue() do not perform the same test. Update futex_wake_op() and futex_requeue() to test for q.pi_state and q.rt_waiter and abort with -EINVAL if detected. To ensure any future breakage is caught, add a WARN() to wake_futex() if the same condition is true. This fix has seen 3 hours of testing with "trinity -c futex" on an x86_64 VM with 4 CPUS.

Siddhesh analyzed a failure in the take over of pi futexes in case the owner died and provided a workaround. See: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14076 The detailed problem analysis shows: Futex F is initialized with PTHREAD_PRIO_INHERIT and PTHREAD_MUTEX_ROBUST_NP attributes. T1 lock_futex_pi(F); T2 lock_futex_pi(F); --> T2 blocks on the futex and creates pi_state which is associated to T1. T1 exits --> exit_robust_list() runs --> Futex F userspace value TID field is set to 0 and FUTEX_OWNER_DIED bit is set. T3 lock_futex_pi(F); --> Succeeds due to the check for F's userspace TID field == 0 --> Claims ownership of the futex and sets its own TID into the userspace TID field of futex F --> returns to user space T1 --> exit_pi_state_list() --> Transfers pi_state to waiter T2 and wakes T2 via rt_mutex_unlock(&pi_state->mutex) T2 --> acquires pi_state->mutex and gains real ownership of the pi_state --> Claims ownership of the futex and sets its own TID into the userspace TID field of futex F --> returns to user space T3 --> observes inconsistent state This problem is independent of UP/SMP, preemptible/non preemptible kernels, or process shared vs. private. The only difference is that certain configurations are more likely to expose it. So as Siddhesh correctly analyzed the following check in futex_lock_pi_atomic() is the culprit: if (unlikely(ownerdied || !(curval & FUTEX_TID_MASK))) { We check the userspace value for a TID value of 0 and take over the futex unconditionally if that's true. AFAICT this check is there as it is correct for a different corner case of futexes: the WAITERS bit became stale. Now the proposed change - if (unlikely(ownerdied || !(curval & FUTEX_TID_MASK))) { + if (unlikely(ownerdied || + !(curval & (FUTEX_TID_MASK | FUTEX_WAITERS)))) { solves the problem, but it's not obvious why and it wreckages the "stale WAITERS bit" case. What happens is, that due to the WAITERS bit being set (T2 is blocked on that futex) it enforces T3 to go through lookup_pi_state(), which in the above case returns an existing pi_state and therefor forces T3 to legitimately fight with T2 over the ownership of the pi_state (via pi_state->mutex). Probelm solved! Though that does not work for the "WAITERS bit is stale" problem because if lookup_pi_state() does not find existing pi_state it returns -ERSCH (due to TID == 0) which causes futex_lock_pi() to return -ESRCH to user space because the OWNER_DIED bit is not set. Now there is a different solution to that problem. Do not look at the user space value at all and enforce a lookup of possibly available pi_state. If pi_state can be found, then the new incoming locker T3 blocks on that pi_state and legitimately races with T2 to acquire the rt_mutex and the pi_state and therefor the proper ownership of the user space futex. lookup_pi_state() has the correct order of checks. It first tries to find a pi_state associated with the user space futex and only if that fails it checks for futex TID value = 0. If no pi_state is available nothing can create new state at that point because this happens with the hash bucket lock held. So the above scenario changes to: T1 lock_futex_pi(F); T2 lock_futex_pi(F); --> T2 blocks on the futex and creates pi_state which is associated to T1. T1 exits --> exit_robust_list() runs --> Futex F userspace value TID field is set to 0 and FUTEX_OWNER_DIED bit is set. T3 lock_futex_pi(F); --> Finds pi_state and blocks on pi_state->rt_mutex T1 --> exit_pi_state_list() --> Transfers pi_state to waiter T2 and wakes it via rt_mutex_unlock(&pi_state->mutex) T2 --> acquires pi_state->mutex and gains ownership of the pi_state --> Claims ownership of the futex and sets its own TID into the userspace TID field of futex F --> returns to user space This covers all gazillion points on which T3 might come in between T1's exit_robust_list() clearing the TID field and T2 fixing it up. It also solves the "WAITERS bit stale" problem by forcing the take over. Another benefit of changing the code this way is that it makes it less dependent on untrusted user space values and therefor minimizes the possible wreckage which might be inflicted. As usual after staring for too long at the futex code my brain hurts so much that I really want to ditch that whole optimization of avoiding the syscall for the non contended case for PI futexes and rip out the maze of corner case handling code. Unfortunately we can't as user space relies on that existing behaviour, but at least thinking about it helps me to preserve my mental sanity. Maybe we should nevertheless :) Reported-and-tested-by: NSiddhesh Poyarekar <siddhesh.poyarekar@gmail.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/alpine.LFD.2.02.1210232138540.2756@ionosAcked-by: NDarren Hart <dvhart@linux.intel.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: NThomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

If uaddr == uaddr2, then we have broken the rule of only requeueing from a non-pi futex to a pi futex with this call. If we attempt this, as the trinity test suite manages to do, we miss early wakeups as q.key is equal to key2 (because they are the same uaddr). We will then attempt to dereference the pi_mutex (which would exist had the futex_q been properly requeued to a pi futex) and trigger a NULL pointer dereference.
