10 years agonet: sctp: test if association is dead in sctp_wake_up_waiters
Daniel Borkmann [Wed, 9 Apr 2014 14:10:20 +0000 (16:10 +0200)]
net: sctp: test if association is dead in sctp_wake_up_waiters

In function sctp_wake_up_waiters(), we need to involve a test
if the association is declared dead. If so, we don't have any
reference to a possible sibling association anymore and need
to invoke sctp_write_space() instead, and normally walk the
socket's associations and notify them of new wmem space. The
reason for special casing is that otherwise, we could run
into the following issue when a sctp_primitive_SEND() call
from sctp_sendmsg() fails, and tries to flush an association's
outq, i.e. in the following way:

sctp_association_free()
`-> list_del(&asoc->asocs)         <-- poisons list pointer
    asoc->base.dead = true
    sctp_outq_free(&asoc->outqueue)
    `-> __sctp_outq_teardown()
     `-> sctp_chunk_free()
      `-> consume_skb()
       `-> sctp_wfree()
        `-> sctp_wake_up_waiters() <-- dereferences poisoned pointers
                                       if asoc->ep->sndbuf_policy=0

Therefore, only walk the list in an 'optimized' way if we find
that the current association is still active. We could also use
list_del_init() in addition when we call sctp_association_free(),
but as Vlad suggests, we want to trap such bugs and thus leave
it poisoned as is.

Why is it safe to resolve the issue by testing for asoc->base.dead?
Parallel calls to sctp_sendmsg() are protected under socket lock,
that is lock_sock()/release_sock(). Only within that path under
lock held, we're setting skb/chunk owner via sctp_set_owner_w().
Eventually, chunks are freed directly by an association still
under that lock. So when traversing association list on destruction
time from sctp_wake_up_waiters() via sctp_wfree(), a different
CPU can't be running sctp_wfree() while another one calls
sctp_association_free() as both happens under the same lock.
Therefore, this can also not race with setting/testing against
asoc->base.dead as we are guaranteed for this to happen in order,
under lock. Further, Vlad says: the times we check asoc->base.dead
is when we've cached an association pointer for later processing.
In between cache and processing, the association may have been
freed and is simply still around due to reference counts. We check
asoc->base.dead under a lock, so it should always be safe to check
and not race against sctp_association_free(). Stress-testing seems
fine now, too.

10 years agonet: sctp: wake up all assocs if sndbuf policy is per socket
Daniel Borkmann [Tue, 8 Apr 2014 15:26:13 +0000 (17:26 +0200)]
net: sctp: wake up all assocs if sndbuf policy is per socket

SCTP charges chunks for wmem accounting via skb->truesize in
sctp_set_owner_w(), and sctp_wfree() respectively as the
reverse operation. If a sender runs out of wmem, it needs to
wait via sctp_wait_for_sndbuf(), and gets woken up by a call
to __sctp_write_space() mostly via sctp_wfree().

__sctp_write_space() is being called per association. Although
we assign sk->sk_write_space() to sctp_write_space(), which
is then being done per socket, it is only used if send space
is increased per socket option (SO_SNDBUF), as SOCK_USE_WRITE_QUEUE
is set and therefore not invoked in sock_wfree().

Commit 4c3a5bdae293 ("sctp: Don't charge for data in sndbuf
again when transmitting packet") fixed an issue where in case
sctp_packet_transmit() manages to queue up more than sndbuf
bytes, sctp_wait_for_sndbuf() will never be woken up again
unless it is interrupted by a signal. However, a still
remaining issue is that if net.sctp.sndbuf_policy=0, that is
accounting per socket, and one-to-many sockets are in use,
the reclaimed write space from sctp_wfree() is 'unfairly'
handed back on the server to the association that is the lucky
one to be woken up again via __sctp_write_space(), while
the remaining associations are never be woken up again
(unless by a signal).

The effect disappears with net.sctp.sndbuf_policy=1, that
is wmem accounting per association, as it guarantees a fair
share of wmem among associations.

Therefore, if we have reclaimed memory in case of per socket
accounting, wake all related associations to a socket in a
fair manner, that is, traverse the socket association list
starting from the current neighbour of the association and
issue a __sctp_write_space() to everyone until we end up
waking ourselves. This guarantees that no association is
preferred over another and even if more associations are
taken into the one-to-many session, all receivers will get
messages from the server and are not stalled forever on
high load. This setting still leaves the advantage of per
socket accounting in touch as an association can still use
up global limits if unused by others.

isdnloop: several buffer overflows

There are three buffer overflows addressed in this patch.

1) In isdnloop_fake_err() we add an 'E' to a 60 character string and
then copy it into a 60 character buffer.  I have made the destination
buffer 64 characters and I'm changed the sprintf() to a snprintf().

2) In isdnloop_parse_cmd(), p points to a 6 characters into a 60
character buffer so we have 54 characters.  The ->eazlist[] is 11
characters long.  I have modified the code to return if the source
buffer is too long.

3) In isdnloop_command() the cbuf[] array was 60 characters long but the
max length of the string then can be up to 79 characters.  I made the
cbuf array 80 characters long and changed the sprintf() to snprintf().
I also removed the temporary "dial" buffer and changed it to use "p"
directly.

Unfortunately, we pass the "cbuf" string from isdnloop_command() to
isdnloop_writecmd() which truncates anything over 60 characters to make
it fit in card->omsg[].  (It can accept values up to 255 characters so
long as there is a '\n' character every 60 characters).  For now I have
just fixed the memory corruption bug and left the other problems in this
driver alone.

x86/mm: sparse warning fix for early_memremap

This patch series takes the common bits from the x86 early ioremap
implementation and creates a generic implementation which may be used by
other architectures.  The early ioremap interfaces are intended for
situations where boot code needs to make temporary virtual mappings
before the normal ioremap interfaces are available.  Typically, this
means before paging_init() has run.

This patch (of 6):

There's a lot of sparse warnings for code like below: void *a =
early_memremap(phys_addr, size);

early_memremap intend to map kernel memory with ioremap facility, the
return pointer should be a kernel ram pointer instead of iomem one.

For making the function clearer and supressing sparse warnings this patch
do below two things:
1. cast to (__force void *) for the return value of early_memremap
2. add early_memunmap function and pass (__force void __iomem *) to iounmap

From Boris:
  "Ingo told me yesterday, it makes sense too.  I'd guess we can try it.
   FWIW, all callers of early_memremap use the memory they get remapped
   as normal memory so we should be safe"

mm: use raw_cpu ops for determining current NUMA node

With the preempt checking logic for __this_cpu_ops we will get false
positives from locations in the code that use numa_node_id.

Before the __this_cpu ops where introduced there were no checks for
preemption present either.  smp_raw_processor_id() was used.  See

  http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-numa/msg00641.html

Therefore we need to use raw_cpu_read here to avoid false postives.

Note that this issue has been discussed in prior years.  If the process
changes nodes after retrieving the current numa node then that is
acceptable since most uses of numa_node etc are for optimization and not
for correctness.

There were suggestions to implement a raw_numa_node_id in order to do
preempt checks for numa_node_id as well.  But I think we better defer
that to another patch since that would mean investigating how
numa_node_id() is used throughout the kernel which would increase the

10 years agopercpu: add raw_cpu_ops
Christoph Lameter [Mon, 7 Apr 2014 22:39:34 +0000 (15:39 -0700)]
percpu: add raw_cpu_ops

The kernel has never been audited to ensure that this_cpu operations are
consistently used throughout the kernel.  The code generated in many
places can be improved through the use of this_cpu operations (which
uses a segment register for relocation of per cpu offsets instead of
performing address calculations).

The patch set also addresses various consistency issues in general with
the per cpu macros.

A. The semantics of __this_cpu_ptr() differs from this_cpu_ptr only
   because checks are skipped. This is typically shown through a raw_
   prefix. So this patch set changes the places where __this_cpu_ptr()
   is used to raw_cpu_ptr().

B. There has been the long term wish by some that __this_cpu operations
   would check for preemption. However, there are cases where preemption
   checks need to be skipped. This patch set adds raw_cpu operations that
   do not check for preemption and then adds preemption checks to the
   __this_cpu operations.

C. The use of __get_cpu_var is always a reference to a percpu variable
   that can also be handled via a this_cpu operation. This patch set
   replaces all uses of __get_cpu_var with this_cpu operations.

D. We can then use this_cpu RMW operations in various places replacing
   sequences of instructions by a single one.

E. The use of this_cpu operations throughout will allow other arches than
   x86 to implement optimized references and RMV operations to work with
   per cpu local data.

F. The use of this_cpu operations opens up the possibility to
   further optimize code that relies on synchronization through
   per cpu data.

The patch set works in a couple of stages:

I. Patch 1 adds the additional raw_cpu operations and raw_cpu_ptr().
    Also converts the existing __this_cpu_xx_# primitive in the x86
    code to raw_cpu_xx_#.

II. Patch 2-4 use the raw_cpu operations in places that would give
     us false positives once they are enabled.

III. Patch 5 adds preemption checks to __this_cpu operations to allow
    checking if preemption is properly disabled when these functions
    are used.

IV. Patches 6-20 are patches that simply replace uses of __get_cpu_var
   with this_cpu_ptr. They do not depend on any changes to the percpu
   code. No preemption tests are skipped if they are applied.

V. Patches 21-46 are conversion patches that use this_cpu operations
   in various kernel subsystems/drivers or arch code.

VI.  Patches 47/48 (not included in this series) remove no longer used
    functions (__this_cpu_ptr and __get_cpu_var).  These should only be
    applied after all the conversion patches have made it and after we
    have done additional passes through the kernel to ensure that none of
    the uses of these functions remain.

This patch (of 46):

The patches following this one will add preemption checks to __this_cpu
ops so we need to have an alternative way to use this_cpu operations
without preemption checks.

raw_cpu_ops will be the basis for all other ops since these will be the
operations that do not implement any checks.

Primitive operations are renamed by this patch from __this_cpu_xxx to
raw_cpu_xxxx.

Also change the uses of the x86 percpu primitives in preempt.h.
These depend directly on asm/percpu.h (header #include nesting issue).

slub: rework sysfs layout for memcg caches

Currently, we try to arrange sysfs entries for memcg caches in the same
manner as for global caches.  Apart from turning /sys/kernel/slab into a
mess when there are a lot of kmem-active memcgs created, it actually
does not work properly - we won't create more than one link to a memcg
cache in case its parent is merged with another cache.  For instance, if
A is a root cache merged with another root cache B, we will have the
following sysfs setup:

  X
  A -> X
  B -> X

where X is some unique id (see create_unique_id()).  Now if memcgs M and
N start to allocate from cache A (or B, which is the same), we will get:

  X
  X:M
  X:N
  A -> X
  B -> X
  A:M -> X:M
  A:N -> X:N

Since B is an alias for A, we won't get entries B:M and B:N, which is
confusing.

It is more logical to have entries for memcg caches under the
corresponding root cache's sysfs directory.  This would allow us to keep
sysfs layout clean, and avoid such inconsistencies like one described
above.

This patch does the trick.  It creates a "cgroup" kset in each root
cache kobject to keep its children caches there.

memcg, slab: do not destroy children caches if parent has aliases

Currently we destroy children caches at the very beginning of

necessarily be destroyed in the end - if it has aliases (refcount > 0),
kmem_cache_destroy() will simply decrement its refcount and return.  In
this case, at best we will get a bunch of warnings in dmesg, like this
one:

  kmem_cache_destroy kmalloc-32:0: Slab cache still has objects

At worst - if kmem_cache_destroy() will race with an allocation from a
memcg cache - the kernel will panic.

This patch fixes this by moving children caches destruction after the
check if the cache has aliases.  Plus, it forbids destroying a root
cache if it still has children caches, because each children cache keeps
a reference to its parent.

10 years agomemcg, slab: unregister cache from memcg before starting to destroy it
Vladimir Davydov [Mon, 7 Apr 2014 22:39:27 +0000 (15:39 -0700)]
memcg, slab: unregister cache from memcg before starting to destroy it

Currently, memcg_unregister_cache(), which deletes the cache being
destroyed from the memcg_slab_caches list, is called after
__kmem_cache_shutdown() (see kmem_cache_destroy()), which starts to
destroy the cache.

As a result, one can access a partially destroyed cache while traversing
a memcg_slab_caches list, which can have deadly consequences (for
instance, cache_show() called for each cache on a memcg_slab_caches list
from mem_cgroup_slabinfo_read() will dereference pointers to already
freed data).

To fix this, let's move memcg_unregister_cache() before the cache
destruction process beginning, issuing memcg_register_cache() on failure.

10 years agomemcg, slab: never try to merge memcg caches
Vladimir Davydov [Mon, 7 Apr 2014 22:39:23 +0000 (15:39 -0700)]
memcg, slab: never try to merge memcg caches

When a kmem cache is created (kmem_cache_create_memcg()), we first try to
find a compatible cache that already exists and can handle requests from
the new cache, i.e.  has the same object size, alignment, ctor, etc.  If
there is such a cache, we do not create any new caches, instead we simply
increment the refcount of the cache found and return it.

Currently we do this procedure not only when creating root caches, but
also for memcg caches.  However, there is no point in that, because, as
every memcg cache has exactly the same parameters as its parent and cache
merging cannot be turned off in runtime (only on boot by passing
"slub_nomerge"), the root caches of any two potentially mergeable memcg
caches should be merged already, i.e.  it must be the same root cache, and
therefore we couldn't even get to the memcg cache creation, because it
already exists.

The only exception is boot caches - they are explicitly forbidden to be
merged by setting their refcount to -1.  There are currently only two of
them - kmem_cache and kmem_cache_node, which are used in slab internals (I
do not count kmalloc caches as their refcount is set to 1 immediately
after creation).  Since they are prevented from merging preliminary I
guess we should avoid to merge their children too.

So let's remove the useless code responsible for merging memcg caches.

This helps catch missing dependencies on common-but-not-required

symbols which only exist to hide other symbols.  Set it on CONFIG_EMBEDDED

Oleg Nesterov [Mon, 7 Apr 2014 22:38:49 +0000 (15:38 -0700)]
wait: WSTOPPED|WCONTINUED doesn't work if a zombie leader is traced by another process

Even if the main thread is dead the process still can stop/continue.
However, if the leader is ptraced wait_consider_task(ptrace => false)
always skips wait_task_stopped/wait_task_continued, so WSTOPPED or
WCONTINUED can never work for the natural parent in this case.

Move the "A zombie ptracee is only visible to its ptracer" check into the
"if (!delay_group_leader(p))" block.  ->notask_error is cleared by the
"fall through" code below.

This depends on the previous change, wait_task_stopped/continued must be
avoided if !delay_group_leader() and the tracer is ->real_parent.
Otherwise WSTOPPED|WEXITED could wrongly report "stopped" when the child
is already dead (single-threaded or not).  If it is traced by another task
then the "stopped" state is fine until the debugger detaches and reveals a
zombie state.

Stupid test-case:

void *tfunc(void *arg)
{
sleep(1); // wait for zombie leader
raise(SIGSTOP);
exit(0x13);
return NULL;
}

int run_child(void)
{
pthread_t thread;

if (!fork()) {
int tracee = getppid();

assert(ptrace(PTRACE_ATTACH, tracee, 0,0) == 0);
do
ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, tracee, 0,0);
while (wait(NULL) > 0);

return 0;
}

sleep(1); // wait for PTRACE_ATTACH
assert(pthread_create(&thread, NULL, tfunc, NULL) == 0);
pthread_exit(NULL);
}

int main(void)
{
int child, stat;

child = fork();
if (!child)
return run_child();

assert(child == waitpid(-1, &stat, WSTOPPED));
assert(stat == 0x137f);

kill(child, SIGCONT);

assert(child == waitpid(-1, &stat, WCONTINUED));
assert(stat == 0xffff);

assert(child == waitpid(-1, &stat, 0));
assert(stat == 0x1300);

return 0;
}

Without this patch it hangs in waitpid(WSTOPPED), wait_task_stopped() is
never called.

Note: this doesn't fix all problems with a zombie delay_group_leader(),
WCONTINUED | WEXITED check is not exactly right.  debugger can't assume it
will be notified if another thread reaps the whole thread group.

wait: WSTOPPED|WCONTINUED hangs if a zombie child is traced by real_parent

"A zombie is only visible to its ptracer" logic in wait_consider_task()
is very wrong. Trivial test-case:

#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/ptrace.h>
#include <sys/wait.h>
#include <assert.h>

int main(void)
{
int child = fork();

if (!child) {
assert(ptrace(PTRACE_TRACEME, 0,0,0) == 0);
return 0x23;
}

assert(waitid(P_ALL, child, NULL, WEXITED | WNOWAIT) == 0);
assert(waitid(P_ALL, 0, NULL, WSTOPPED) == -1);
return 0;
}

it hangs in waitpid(WSTOPPED) despite the fact it has a single zombie
child.  This is because wait_consider_task(ptrace => 0) sees p->ptrace and
cleares ->notask_error assuming that the debugger should detach and notify
us.

Change wait_consider_task(ptrace => 0) to pretend that ptrace == T if the
child is traced by us.  This really simplifies the logic and allows us to
do more fixes, see the next changes.  This also hides the unwanted group
stop state automatically, we can remove another ptrace_reparented() check.

Unfortunately, this adds the following behavioural changes:

1. Before this patch wait(WEXITED | __WNOTHREAD) does not reap
   a natural child if it is traced by the caller's sub-thread.

   Hopefully nobody will ever notice this change, and I think
   that nobody should rely on this behaviour anyway.

2. SIGNAL_STOP_CONTINUED is no longer hidden from debugger if
   it is real parent.

   While this change comes as a side effect, I think it is good
   by itself. The group continued state can not be consumed by
   another process in this case, it doesn't depend on ptrace,
   it doesn't make sense to hide it from real parent.

   Perhaps we should add the thread_group_leader() check before
   wait_task_continued()? May be, but this shouldn't depend on
   ptrace_reparented().

can be noticed via /proc as Z -> X -> Z change.  Note that this was

drops tasklist_lock.  If this task is not the natural child and it is
traced, we change its state back to EXIT_ZOMBIE for ->real_parent.

The last transition is racy, this is even documented in 50b8d257486a
"ptrace: partially fix the do_wait(WEXITED) vs EXIT_DEAD->EXIT_ZOMBIE

->notask_error but we can't rely on ptrace_reparented(), debugger can
exit and do ptrace_unlink() before its sub-thread sets EXIT_ZOMBIE.

And there is another problem which were missed before: this transition
can also race with reparent_leader() which doesn't reset >exit_signal if
EXIT_DEAD, assuming that this task must be reaped by someone else.  So
the tracee can be re-parented with ->exit_signal != SIGCHLD, and if
/sbin/init doesn't use __WALL it becomes unreapable.  This was fixed by
the previous commit, but it was the temporary hack.

1. Add the new exit_state, EXIT_TRACE. It means that the task is the
   traced zombie, debugger is going to detach and notify its natural
   parent.

   This new state is actually EXIT_ZOMBIE | EXIT_DEAD. This way we
   can avoid the changes in proc/kgdb code, get_task_state() still
   reports "X (dead)" in this case.

   Note: with or without this change userspace can see Z -> X -> Z
   transition. Not really bad, but probably makes sense to fix.

2. Change wait_task_zombie() to use EXIT_TRACE instead of EXIT_DEAD
   if we need to notify the ->real_parent.

3. Revert the previous hack in reparent_leader(), now that EXIT_DEAD
   is always the final state we can safely ignore such a task.

4. Change wait_consider_task() to check EXIT_TRACE separately and kill
   the racy and no longer needed ptrace_reparented() case.

   If ptrace == T an EXIT_TRACE thread should be simply ignored, the
   owner of this state is going to ptrace_unlink() this task. We can
   pretend that it was already removed from ->ptraced list.

   Otherwise we should skip this thread too but clear ->notask_error,
   we must be the natural parent and debugger is going to untrace and
   notify us. IOW, this doesn't differ from "EXIT_ZOMBIE && p->ptrace"
   even if the task was already untraced.

kernel/exit.c: call proc_exit_connector() after exit_state is set

The process events connector delivers a notification when a process
exits.  This is really convenient for a process that spawns and wants to
monitor its children through an epoll-able() interface.

Unfortunately, there is a small window between when the event is
delivered and the child become wait()-able.

This is creates a race if the parent wants to make sure that it knows
about the exit, e.g

pid_t pid = fork();
if (pid > 0) {
register_interest_for_pid(pid);
if (waitpid(pid, NULL, WNOHANG) > 0)
{
  /* We might have raced with exit() */
}
return;
}

/* Child */
execve(...)

register_interest_for_pid() would be telling the the connector socket
reader to pay attention to events related to pid.

Though this is not a bug, I think it would make the connector a bit more
usable if this race was closed by simply moving the call to
proc_exit_connector() from just before exit_notify() to right after.

Oleg said:

: Even with this patch the code above is still "racy" if the child is
: multi-threaded.  Plus it should obviously filter-out subthreads.  And
: afaics there is no way to make it reliable, even if you change the code
: above so that waitpid() is called only after the last thread exits WNOHANG
: still can fail.

mm/zswap: support multiple swap devices

Cai Liu reporeted that now zbud pool pages counting has a problem when
multiple swap is used because it just counts only one swap intead of all
of swap so zswap cannot control writeback properly.  The result is
unnecessary writeback or no writeback when we should really writeback.

IOW, it made zswap crazy.

Another problem in zswap is:

For example, let's assume we use two swap A and B with different
priority and A already has charged 19% long time ago and let's assume
that A swap is full now so VM start to use B so that B has charged 1%
recently.  It menas zswap charged (19% + 1%) is full by default.  Then,
if VM want to swap out more pages into B, zbud_reclaim_page would be
evict one of pages in B's pool and it would be repeated continuously.
It's totally LRU reverse problem and swap thrashing in B would happen.

This patch makes zswap consider mutliple swap by creating *a* zbud pool
which will be shared by multiple swap so all of zswap pages in multiple
swap keep order by LRU so it can prevent above two problems.
