On non-developer devices, kgdb prevents the device from rebooting after a panic. Incase of panics and exceptions, to allow the device to reboot, prevent entering debug mode to avoid getting stuck waiting for the user to interact with debugger. To avoid entering the debugger on panic/exception without any extra configuration, panic_timeout is being used which can be set via /proc/sys/kernel/panic at run time and CONFIG_PANIC_TIMEOUT sets the default value. Setting panic_timeout indicates that the user requested machine to perform unattended reboot after panic. We dont want to get stuck waiting for the user input incase of panic.

Currently kdb allows the output of comamnds to be filtered using the | grep feature. This is useful but does not permit the output emitted shortly after a string match to be examined without wading through the entire unfiltered output of the command. Such a feature is particularly useful to navigate function traces because these traces often have a useful trigger string *before* the point of interest. This patch reuses the existing filtering logic to introduce a simple forward search to kdb that can be triggered from the more prompt.

Currently when the "| grep" feature is used to filter the output of a command then the prompt is not displayed for the subsequent command. Likewise any characters typed by the user are also not echoed to the display. This rather disconcerting problem eventually corrects itself when the user presses Enter and the kdb_grepping_flag is cleared as kdb_parse() tries to make sense of whatever they typed. This patch resolves the problem by moving the clearing of this flag from the middle of command processing to the beginning.

Issuing a stack dump feels ergonomically wrong when entering due to NMI. Entering due to NMI is normally a reaction to a user request, either the NMI button on a server or a "magic knock" on a UART. Therefore the backtrace behaviour on entry due to NMI should be like SysRq-g (no stack dump) rather than like oops. Note also that the stack dump does not offer any information that cannot be trivial retrieved using the 'bt' command.

Currently when kdb traps printk messages then the raw log level prefix (consisting of '\001' followed by a numeral) does not get stripped off before the message is issued to the various I/O handlers supported by kdb. This causes annoying visual noise as well as causing problems grepping for ^. It is also a change of behaviour compared to normal usage of printk() usage. For example <SysRq>-h ends up with different output to that of kdb's "sr h". This patch addresses the problem by stripping log levels from messages before they are issued to the I/O handlers. printk() which can also act as an i/o handler in some cases is special cased; if the caller provided a log level then the prefix will be preserved when sent to printk(). The addition of non-printable characters to the output of kdb commands is a regression, albeit and extremely elderly one, introduced by commit 04d2c8c8 ("printk: convert the format for KERN_<LEVEL> to a 2 byte pattern"). Note also that this patch does *not* restore the original behaviour from v3.5. Instead it makes printk() from within a kdb command display the message without any prefix (i.e. like printk() normally does).

struct kimage has a member destination which is used to store the real destination address of each page when load segment from user space buffer to kernel. But we never retrieve the value stored in kimage->destination, so this member variable in kimage and its assignment operation are redundent code.

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).

Theoretically, ktime_get_mono_fast_ns() may be executed after timekeeping has been suspended (or before it is resumed) which in turn may lead to undefined behavior, for example, when the clocksource read from timekeeping_get_ns() called by it is not accessible at that time. Prevent that from happening by setting up a dummy readout base for the fast timekeeper during timekeeping_suspend() such that it will always return the same number of cycles. After the last timekeeping_update() in timekeeping_suspend() the clocksource is read and the result is stored as cycles_at_suspend. The readout base from the current timekeeper is copied onto the dummy and the ->read pointer of the dummy is set to a routine unconditionally returning cycles_at_suspend. Next, the dummy is passed to update_fast_timekeeper(). Then, ktime_get_mono_fast_ns() will work until the subsequent timekeeping_resume() and the proper readout base for the fast timekeeper will be restored by the timekeeping_update() called right after clearing timekeeping_suspended.

In original code, the probed instruction doesn't get optimized after echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/kprobes/enabled echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/kprobes/enabled This is because original code checks kprobes_all_disarmed in optimize_kprobe(), but this flag is turned off after calling that function. Therefore, optimize_kprobe() will see kprobes_all_disarmed == true and doesn't do the optimization. This patch simply turns off kprobes_all_disarmed earlier to enable optimization.

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.

In preparation for adding support for quiescing timers in the final stage of suspend-to-idle transitions, rework the freeze_enter() function making the system wait on a wakeup event, the freeze_wake() function terminating the suspend-to-idle loop and the mechanism by which deep idle states are entered during suspend-to-idle. First of all, introduce a simple state machine for suspend-to-idle and make the code in question use it. Second, prevent freeze_enter() from losing wakeup events due to race conditions and ensure that the number of online CPUs won't change while it is being executed. In addition to that, make it force all of the CPUs re-enter the idle loop in case they are in idle states already (so they can enter deeper idle states if possible). Next, drop cpuidle_use_deepest_state() and replace use_deepest_state checks in cpuidle_select() and cpuidle_reflect() with a single suspend-to-idle state check in cpuidle_idle_call(). Finally, introduce cpuidle_enter_freeze() that will simply find the deepest idle state available to the given CPU and enter it using cpuidle_enter(). Signed-off-by: NRafael J.

When the hypervisor pauses a virtualised kernel the kernel will observe a jump in timebase, this can cause spurious messages from the softlockup detector. Whilst these messages are harmless, they are accompanied with a stack trace which causes undue concern and more problematically the stack trace in the guest has nothing to do with the observed problem and can only be misleading. Futhermore, on POWER8 this is completely avoidable with the introduction of the Virtual Time Base (VTB) register. This patch (of 2): This permits the use of arch specific clocks for which virtualised kernels can use their notion of 'running' time, not the elpased wall time which will include host execution time.

If an attacker can cause a controlled kernel stack overflow, overwriting the restart block is a very juicy exploit target. This is because the restart_block is held in the same memory allocation as the kernel stack. Moving the restart block to struct task_struct prevents this exploit by making the restart_block harder to locate. Note that there are other fields in thread_info that are also easy targets, at least on some architectures. It's also a decent simplification, since the restart code is more or less identical on all architectures.

Currently, we release css->id in css_release_work_fn, right before calling css_free callback, so that when css_free is called, the id may have already been reused for a new cgroup. I am going to use css->id to create unique names for per memcg kmem caches. Since kmem caches are destroyed only on css_free, I need css->id to be freed after css_free was called to avoid name clashes. This patch therefore moves css->id removal to css_free_work_fn. To prevent css_from_id from returning a pointer to a stale css, it makes css_release_work_fn replace the css ptr at css_idr:css->id with NULL.

The problem is that we check nr_ptes/nr_pmds in exit_mmap() which happens *before* pgd_free(). And if an arch does pte/pmd allocation in pgd_alloc() and frees them in pgd_free() we see offset in counters by the time of the checks. We tried to workaround this by offsetting expected counter value according to FIRST_USER_ADDRESS for both nr_pte and nr_pmd in exit_mmap(). But it doesn't work in some cases: 1. ARM with LPAE enabled also has non-zero USER_PGTABLES_CEILING, but upper addresses occupied with huge pmd entries, so the trick with offsetting expected counter value will get really ugly: we will have to apply it nr_pmds, but not nr_ptes. 2. Metag has non-zero FIRST_USER_ADDRESS, but doesn't do allocation pte/pmd page tables allocation in pgd_alloc(), just setup a pgd entry which is allocated at boot and shared accross all processes. The proposal is to move the check to check_mm() which happens *after* pgd_free() and do proper accounting during pgd_alloc() and pgd_free() which would bring counters to zero if nothing leaked.

Dave noticed that unprivileged process can allocate significant amount of memory -- >500 MiB on x86_64 -- and stay unnoticed by oom-killer and memory cgroup. The trick is to allocate a lot of PMD page tables. Linux kernel doesn't account PMD tables to the process, only PTE. The use-cases below use few tricks to allocate a lot of PMD page tables while keeping VmRSS and VmPTE low. oom_score for the process will be 0. #include <errno.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/mman.h> #include <sys/prctl.h> #define PUD_SIZE (1UL << 30) #define PMD_SIZE (1UL << 21) #define NR_PUD 130000 int main(void) { char *addr = NULL; unsigned long i; prctl(PR_SET_THP_DISABLE); for (i = 0; i < NR_PUD ; i++) { addr = mmap(addr + PUD_SIZE, PUD_SIZE, PROT_WRITE|PROT_READ, MAP_ANONYMOUS|MAP_PRIVATE, -1, 0); if (addr == MAP_FAILED) { perror("mmap"); break; } *addr = 'x'; munmap(addr, PMD_SIZE); mmap(addr, PMD_SIZE, PROT_WRITE|PROT_READ, MAP_ANONYMOUS|MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED, -1, 0); if (addr == MAP_FAILED) perror("re-mmap"), exit(1); } printf("PID %d consumed %lu KiB in PMD page tables\n", getpid(), i * 4096 >> 10); return pause(); } The patch addresses the issue by account PMD tables to the process the same way we account PTE. The main place where PMD tables is accounted is __pmd_alloc() and free_pmd_range(). But there're few corner cases: - HugeTLB can share PMD page tables. The patch handles by accounting the table to all processes who share it. - x86 PAE pre-allocates few PMD tables on fork. - Architectures with FIRST_USER_ADDRESS > 0. We need to adjust sanity check on exit(2). Accounting only happens on configuration where PMD page table's level is present (PMD is not folded). As with nr_ptes we use per-mm counter. The counter value is used to calculate baseline for badness score by oom-killer. Signed-off-by: NKirill A.
