RCU currently uses for_each_possible_cpu() to spawn rcuo kthreads, which can result in more rcuo kthreads than one would expect, for example, derRichard reported 64 CPUs worth of rcuo kthreads on an 8-CPU image. This commit therefore creates rcuo kthreads only for those CPUs that actually come online. This was reported by derRichard on the OFTC IRC network.

Currently, RCU spawns kthreads from several different early_initcall() functions. Although this has served RCU well for quite some time, as more kthreads are added a more deterministic approach is required. This commit therefore causes all of RCU's early-boot kthreads to be spawned from a single early_initcall() function. Signed-off-by: NPaul E.

Commit b58cc46c (rcu: Don't offload callbacks unless specifically requested) failed to adjust the callback lists of the CPUs that are known to be no-CBs CPUs only because they are also nohz_full= CPUs. This failure can result in callbacks that are posted during early boot getting stranded on nxtlist for CPUs whose no-CBs property becomes apparent late, and there can also be spurious warnings about offline CPUs posting callbacks. This commit fixes these problems by adding an early-boot rcu_init_nohz() that properly initializes the no-CBs CPUs. Note that kernels built with CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU_ALL=y or with CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU=n do not exhibit this bug. Neither do kernels booted without the nohz_full= boot parameter. Signed-off-by: NPaul E.

The nocb callbacks generated before the nocb kthreads are spawned are enqueued in the nocb queue for later processing. Commit fbce7497 ("rcu: Parallelize and economize NOCB kthread wakeups") introduced nocb leader kthreads which checked the nocb_leader_wake flag to see if there were any such pending callbacks. A case was reported in which newly spawned leader kthreads were not processing the pending callbacks as this flag was not set, which led to a boot hang. The following commit ensures that the newly spawned nocb kthreads process the pending callbacks by allowing the kthreads to run immediately after spawning instead of waiting. This is done by inverting the logic of nocb_leader_wake tests to nocb_leader_sleep which allows us to use the default initialization of this flag to 0 to let the kthreads run.

In __ftrace_replace_code(), when converting the call to a nop in a function it needs to compare against the "curr" (current) value of the ftrace ops, and not the "new" one. It currently does not affect x86 which is the only arch to do the trampolines with function graph tracer, but when other archs that do depend on this code implement the function graph trampoline, it can crash. Here's an example when ARM uses the trampolines (in the future): ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 9 at kernel/trace/ftrace.c:1716 ftrace_bug+0x17c/0x1f4() Modules linked in: omap_rng rng_core ipv6 CPU: 0 PID: 9 Comm: migration/0 Not tainted 3.16.0-test-10959-gf0094b28-dirty #52 [<c02188f4>] (unwind_backtrace) from [<c021343c>] (show_stack+0x20/0x24) [<c021343c>] (show_stack) from [<c095a674>] (dump_stack+0x78/0x94) [<c095a674>] (dump_stack) from [<c02532a0>] (warn_slowpath_common+0x7c/0x9c) [<c02532a0>] (warn_slowpath_common) from [<c02532ec>] (warn_slowpath_null+0x2c/0x34) [<c02532ec>] (warn_slowpath_null) from [<c02cbac4>] (ftrace_bug+0x17c/0x1f4) [<c02cbac4>] (ftrace_bug) from [<c02cc44c>] (ftrace_replace_code+0x80/0x9c) [<c02cc44c>] (ftrace_replace_code) from [<c02cc658>] (ftrace_modify_all_code+0xb8/0x164) [<c02cc658>] (ftrace_modify_all_code) from [<c02cc718>] (__ftrace_modify_code+0x14/0x1c) [<c02cc718>] (__ftrace_modify_code) from [<c02c7244>] (multi_cpu_stop+0xf4/0x134) [<c02c7244>] (multi_cpu_stop) from [<c02c6e90>] (cpu_stopper_thread+0x54/0x130) [<c02c6e90>] (cpu_stopper_thread) from [<c0271cd4>] (smpboot_thread_fn+0x1ac/0x1bc) [<c0271cd4>] (smpboot_thread_fn) from [<c026ddf0>] (kthread+0xe0/0xfc) [<c026ddf0>] (kthread) from [<c020f318>] (ret_from_fork+0x14/0x20) ---[ end trace dc9ce72c5b617d8f ]--- [ 65.047264] ftrace failed to modify [<c0208580>] asm_do_IRQ+0x10/0x1c [ 65.054070] actual: 85:1b:00:eb Fixes: 7413af1f "ftrace: Make get_ftrace_addr() and get_ftrace_addr_old() global" Signed-off-by: NSteven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

The latest rewrite of ftrace removed the separate ftrace_ops of the function tracer and the function graph tracer and had them share the same ftrace_ops. This simplified the accounting by removing the multiple layers of functions called, where the global_ops func would call a special list that would iterate over the other ops that were registered within it (like function and function graph), which itself was registered to the ftrace ops list of all functions currently active. If that sounds confusing, the code that implemented it was also confusing and its removal is a good thing. The problem with this change was that it assumed that the function and function graph tracer can never be used at the same time. This is mostly true, but there is an exception. That is when the function profiler uses the function graph tracer to profile. The function profiler can be activated the same time as the function tracer, and this breaks the assumption and the result is that ftrace will crash (it detects the error and shuts itself down, it does not cause a kernel oops). To solve this issue, a previous change allowed the hash tables for the functions traced by a ftrace_ops to be a pointer and let multiple ftrace_ops share the same hash. This allows the function and function_graph tracer to have separate ftrace_ops, but still share the hash, which is what is done. Now the function and function graph tracers have separate ftrace_ops again, and the function tracer can be run while the function_profile is active.

Now that a ftrace_hash can be shared by multiple ftrace_ops, they can dec the rec->flags by more than once (one per those that share the ftrace_hash). This means that the tramp_hash may not have a hash item when it was added. For example, if two ftrace_ops share a hash for a ftrace record, and the first ops has a trampoline, when it adds itself it will set the rec->flags TRAMP flag and increments its nr_trampolines counter. When the second ops is added, it must clear that tramp flag but also decrement the other ops that shares its hash. As the update to the function callbacks has not yet been performed, the other ops will not have the tramp hash set yet and it can not be used to know to decrement its nr_trampolines. Luckily, the tramp_hash does not need to be used. As the ftrace_mutex is held, a ops with a trampoline to a record during an update of another ops that shares the record will have its func_hash pointing to it. Since a trampoline can only be set for a record if only one ops is attached to it, we can just check if the record has a trampoline (the FTRACE_FL_TRAMP flag is set) and then find the ops that has this record in its hashes. Also added some output to help debug when things go wrong. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 3.16+ (apply after 3.17-rc4 is out) Signed-off-by: NSteven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

When updating what an ftrace_ops traces, if it is registered (that is, actively tracing), and that ftrace_ops uses the shared global_ops local_hash, then we need to update all tracers that are active and also share the global_ops' ftrace_hash_ops.

Currently the top level debug file system function tracer shares its ftrace_ops with the function graph tracer. This was thought to be fine because the tracers are not used together, as one can only enable function or function_graph tracer in the current_tracer file. But that assumption proved to be incorrect. The function profiler can use the function graph tracer when function tracing is enabled. Since all function graph users uses the function tracing ftrace_ops this causes a conflict and when a user enables both function profiling as well as the function tracer it will crash ftrace and disable it. The quick solution so far is to move them as separate ftrace_ops like it was earlier. The problem though is to synchronize the functions that are traced because both function and function_graph tracer are limited by the selections made in the set_ftrace_filter and set_ftrace_notrace files. To handle this, a new structure is made called ftrace_ops_hash. This structure will now hold the filter_hash and notrace_hash, and the ftrace_ops will point to this structure. That will allow two ftrace_ops to share the same hashes. Since most ftrace_ops do not share the hashes, and to keep allocation simple, the ftrace_ops structure will include both a pointer to the ftrace_ops_hash called func_hash, as well as the structure itself, called local_hash. When the ops are registered, the func_hash pointer will be initialized to point to the local_hash within the ftrace_ops structure. Some of the ftrace internal ftrace_ops will be initialized statically. This will allow for the function and function_graph tracer to have separate ops but still share the same hash tables that determine what functions they trace.

When running a 32-bit userspace on a 64-bit kernel (eg. i386 application on x86_64 kernel or 32-bit arm userspace on arm64 kernel) some of the perf ioctls must be treated with special care, as they have a pointer size encoded in the command. For example, PERF_EVENT_IOC_ID in 32-bit world will be encoded as 0x80042407, but 64-bit kernel will expect 0x80082407. In result the ioctl will fail returning -ENOTTY.

This is the final piece of the puzzle of verifying kernel image signature during kexec_file_load() syscall. This patch calls into PE file routines to verify signature of bzImage. If signature are valid, kexec_file_load() succeeds otherwise it fails. Two new config options have been introduced. First one is CONFIG_KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG. This option enforces that kernel has to be validly signed otherwise kernel load will fail. If this option is not set, no signature verification will be done. Only exception will be when secureboot is enabled. In that case signature verification should be automatically enforced when secureboot is enabled. But that will happen when secureboot patches are merged. Second config option is CONFIG_KEXEC_BZIMAGE_VERIFY_SIG. This option enables signature verification support on bzImage. If this option is not set and previous one is set, kernel image loading will fail because kernel does not have support to verify signature of bzImage. I tested these patches with both "pesign" and "sbsign" signed bzImages. I used signing_key.priv key and signing_key.x509 cert for signing as generated during kernel build process (if module signing is enabled). Used following method to sign bzImage. pesign ====== - Convert DER format cert to PEM format cert openssl x509 -in signing_key.x509 -inform DER -out signing_key.x509.PEM -outform PEM - Generate a .p12 file from existing cert and private key file openssl pkcs12 -export -out kernel-key.p12 -inkey signing_key.priv -in signing_key.x509.PEM - Import .p12 file into pesign db pk12util -i /tmp/kernel-key.p12 -d /etc/pki/pesign - Sign bzImage pesign -i /boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-rc3+ -o /boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-rc3+.signed.pesign -c "Glacier signing key - Magrathea" -s sbsign ====== sbsign --key signing_key.priv --cert signing_key.x509.PEM --output /boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-rc3+.signed.sbsign /boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-rc3+ Patch details: Well all the hard work is done in previous patches. Now bzImage loader has just call into that code and verify whether bzImage signature are valid or not. Also create two config options. First one is CONFIG_KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG. This option enforces that kernel has to be validly signed otherwise kernel load will fail. If this option is not set, no signature verification will be done. Only exception will be when secureboot is enabled. In that case signature verification should be automatically enforced when secureboot is enabled.

I have added two more functions to walk through resources. Currently walk_system_ram_range() deals with pfn and /proc/iomem can contain partial pages. By dealing in pfn, callback function loses the info that last page of a memory range is a partial page and not the full page. So I implemented walk_system_ram_res() which returns u64 values to callback functions and now it properly return start and end address. walk_system_ram_range() uses find_next_system_ram() to find the next ram resource. This in turn only travels through siblings of top level child and does not travers through all the nodes of the resoruce tree. I also need another function where I can walk through all the resources, for example figure out where "GART" aperture is. Figure out where ACPI memory is. So I wrote another function walk_iomem_res() which walks through all /proc/iomem resources and returns matches as asked by caller. Caller can specify "name" of resource, start and end and flags.

kimage_normal_alloc() and kimage_crash_alloc() are doing lot of similar things and differ only little. So instead of having two separate functions create a common function kimage_alloc_init() and pass it the "flags" argument which tells whether it is normal kexec or kexec_on_panic. And this function should be able to deal with both the cases. This consolidation also helps later where we can use a common function kimage_file_alloc_init() to handle normal and crash cases for new file based kexec syscall.

Previously do_kimage_alloc() will allocate a kimage structure, copy segment list from user space and then do the segment list sanity verification. Break down this function in 3 parts. do_kimage_alloc_init() to do actual allocation and basic initialization of kimage structure. copy_user_segment_list() to copy segment list from user space and sanity_check_segment_list() to verify the sanity of segment list as passed by user space. In later patches, I need to only allocate kimage and not copy segment list from user space. So breaking down in smaller functions enables re-use of code at other places.

This patch series does not do kernel signature verification yet. I plan to post another patch series for that. Now distributions are already signing PE/COFF bzImage with PKCS7 signature I plan to parse and verify those signatures. Primary goal of this patchset is to prepare groundwork so that kernel image can be signed and signatures be verified during kexec load. This should help with two things. - It should allow kexec/kdump on secureboot enabled machines. - In general it can help even without secureboot. By being able to verify kernel image signature in kexec, it should help with avoiding module signing restrictions. Matthew Garret showed how to boot into a custom kernel, modify first kernel's memory and then jump back to old kernel and bypass any policy one wants to. This patch (of 15): Kexec wants to use bin2c and it wants to use it really early in the build process. See arch/x86/purgatory/ code in later patches. So move bin2c in scripts/basic so that it can be built very early and be usable by arch/x86/purgatory/ Signed-off-by: NVivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de> Cc: Michael Kerrisk <mtk.manpages@gmail.com> Cc: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> Cc: Eric Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Cc: H.

memfd_create() is similar to mmap(MAP_ANON), but returns a file-descriptor that you can pass to mmap(). It can support sealing and avoids any connection to user-visible mount-points. Thus, it's not subject to quotas on mounted file-systems, but can be used like malloc()'ed memory, but with a file-descriptor to it. memfd_create() returns the raw shmem file, so calls like ftruncate() can be used to modify the underlying inode. Also calls like fstat() will return proper information and mark the file as regular file. If you want sealing, you can specify MFD_ALLOW_SEALING. Otherwise, sealing is not supported (like on all other regular files). Compared to O_TMPFILE, it does not require a tmpfs mount-point and is not subject to a filesystem size limit. It is still properly accounted to memcg limits, though, and to the same overcommit or no-overcommit accounting as all user memory.

This patch (of 6): The i_mmap_writable field counts existing writable mappings of an address_space. To allow drivers to prevent new writable mappings, make this counter signed and prevent new writable mappings if it is negative. This is modelled after i_writecount and DENYWRITE. This will be required by the shmem-sealing infrastructure to prevent any new writable mappings after the WRITE seal has been set. In case there exists a writable mapping, this operation will fail with EBUSY. Note that we rely on the fact that iff you already own a writable mapping, you can increase the counter without using the helpers. This is the same that we do for i_writecount.

This is small set of patches our team has had kicking around for a few versions internally that fixes tasks getting hung on shm_exit when there are many threads hammering it at once. Anton wrote a simple test to cause the issue: http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/bust_shm_exit.c Before applying this patchset, this test code will cause either hanging tracebacks or pthread out of memory errors. After this patchset, it will still produce output like: root@somehost:~# ./bust_shm_exit 1024 160 ... INFO: rcu_sched detected stalls on CPUs/tasks: {} (detected by 116, t=2111 jiffies, g=241, c=240, q=7113) INFO: Stall ended before state dump start ... But the task will continue to run along happily, so we consider this an improvement over hanging, even if it's a bit noisy. This patch (of 3): exit_shm obtains the ipc_ns shm rwsem for write and holds it while it walks every shared memory segment in the namespace. Thus the amount of work is related to the number of shm segments in the namespace not the number of segments that might need to be cleaned. In addition, this occurs after the task has been notified the thread has exited, so the number of tasks waiting for the ns shm rwsem can grow without bound until memory is exausted. Add a list to the task struct of all shmids allocated by this task. Init the list head in copy_process. Use the ns->rwsem for locking. Add segments after id is added, remove before removing from id. On unshare of NEW_IPCNS orphan any ids as if the task had exited, similar to handling of semaphore undo. I chose a define for the init sequence since its a simple list init, otherwise it would require a function call to avoid include loops between the semaphore code and the task struct. Converting the list_del to list_del_init for the unshare cases would remove the exit followed by init, but I left it blow up if not inited.

If a forking process has a thread calling (un)mmap (silly but still), the child process may have some of its mm's vm usage counters (total_vm and friends) screwed up, because currently they are copied from oldmm w/o holding any locks (memcpy in dup_mm). This patch moves the counters initialization to dup_mmap() to be called under oldmm->mmap_sem, which eliminates any possibility of race.

mm->pinned_vm counts pages of mm's address space that were permanently pinned in memory by increasing their reference counter. The counter was introduced by commit bc3e53f6 ("mm: distinguish between mlocked and pinned pages"), while before it locked_vm had been used for such pages. Obviously, we should reset the counter on fork if !CLONE_VM, just like we do with locked_vm, but currently we don't. Let's fix it. This patch will fix the contents of /proc/pid/status:VmPin. ib_umem_get[infiniband] and perf_mmap still check pinned_vm against RLIMIT_MEMLOCK. It's left from the times when pinned pages were accounted under locked_vm, but today it looks wrong. It isn't clear how we should deal with it. We still have some drivers accounting pinned pages under mm->locked_vm - this is what commit bc3e53f6 was fighting against. It's infiniband/usnic and vfio.

mm initialization on fork/exec is spread all over the place, which makes the code look inconsistent. We have mm_init(), which is supposed to init/nullify mm's internals, but it doesn't init all the fields it should: - on fork ->mmap,mm_rb,vmacache_seqnum,map_count,mm_cpumask,locked_vm are zeroed in dup_mmap(); - on fork ->pmd_huge_pte is zeroed in dup_mm(), immediately before calling mm_init(); - ->cpu_vm_mask_var ptr is initialized by mm_init_cpumask(), which is called before mm_init() on both fork and exec; - ->context is initialized by init_new_context(), which is called after mm_init() on both fork and exec; Let's consolidate all the initializations in mm_init() to make the code look cleaner.
