When an element is added to the reserved pool, it is poisoned with
POISON_FREE.  When it is removed from the reserved pool, the contents are
checked for POISON_FREE.  If there is a mismatch, a warning is emitted to

The -EFAULT comes from the branch of security_vm_enough_memory_mm failure,
underlyingly it calls __vm_enough_memory which returns only 0 for success
or -ENOMEM; So why vma_to_resize needs to return -EFAULT in this case?
this sounds like a mistake to me.

Some more digging into git history:

1) Before commit 119f657c7 ("RLIMIT_AS checking fix") in May 1 2005
   (pre 2.6.12 days) it was returning -ENOMEM for this failure;

2) but commit 119f657c7 ("untangling do_mremap(), part 1") changed it
   accidentally, to what ever is preserved in local ret, which happened to
   be -EFAULT, in a previous assignment;

3) then in commit 54f5de709 code refactoring, it's explicitly returning

9 years agomm/vmalloc: get rid of dirty bitmap inside vmap_block structure

mm/vmalloc: get rid of dirty bitmap inside vmap_block structure

In original implementation of vm_map_ram made by Nick Piggin there were
two bitmaps: alloc_map and dirty_map.  None of them were used as supposed
to be: finding a suitable free hole for next allocation in block.
vm_map_ram allocates space sequentially in block and on free call marks
pages as dirty, so freed space can't be reused anymore.

Actually it would be very interesting to know the real meaning of those
bitmaps, maybe implementation was incomplete, etc.

But long time ago Zhang Yanfei removed alloc_map by these two commits:

  mm/vmalloc.c: remove dead code in vb_alloc
     3fcd76e8028e0be37b02a2002b4f56755daeda06
  mm/vmalloc.c: remove alloc_map from vmap_block
     b8e748b6c32999f221ea4786557b8e7e6c4e4e7a

In this patch I replaced dirty_map with two range variables: dirty min and
max.  These variables store minimum and maximum position of dirty space in
a block, since we need only to know the dirty range, not exact position of
dirty pages.

Why it was made?  Several reasons: at first glance it seems that
vm_map_ram allocator concerns about fragmentation thus it uses bitmaps for
finding free hole, but it is not true.  To avoid complexity seems it is
better to use something simple, like min or max range values.  Secondly,
code also becomes simpler, without iteration over bitmap, just comparing
values in min and max macros.  Thirdly, bitmap occupies up to 1024 bits
(4MB is a max size of a block).  Here I replaced the whole bitmap with two
longs.

Finally vm_unmap_aliases should be slightly faster and the whole
vmap_block structure occupies less memory.

mm/vmalloc: occupy newly allocated vmap block just after allocation

Previous implementation allocates new vmap block and repeats search of a
free block from the very beginning, iterating over the CPU free list.

Why it can be better??

1. Allocation can happen on one CPU, but search can be done on another CPU.
   In worst case we preallocate amount of vmap blocks which is equal to
   CPU number on the system.

2. In previous patch I added newly allocated block to the tail of free list
   to avoid soon exhaustion of virtual space and give a chance to occupy
   blocks which were allocated long time ago.  Thus to find newly allocated
   block all the search sequence should be repeated, seems it is not efficient.

In this patch newly allocated block is occupied right away, address of
virtual space is returned to the caller, so there is no any need to repeat
the search sequence, allocation job is done.

9 years agomm/vmalloc: fix possible exhaustion of vmalloc space caused by vm_map_ram allocator

mm/vmalloc: fix possible exhaustion of vmalloc space caused by vm_map_ram allocator

Recently I came across high fragmentation of vm_map_ram allocator:
vmap_block has free space, but still new blocks continue to appear.
Further investigation showed that certain mapping/unmapping sequences
can exhaust vmalloc space.  On small 32bit systems that's not a big
problem, cause purging will be called soon on a first allocation failure
(alloc_vmap_area), but on 64bit machines, e.g.  x86_64 has 45 bits of
vmalloc space, that can be a disaster.

1) I came up with a simple allocation sequence, which exhausts virtual
   space very quickly:

  while (iters) {

                /* Map/unmap big chunk */
                vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, 16, -1, PAGE_KERNEL);
                vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, 16);

                /* Map/unmap small chunks.
                 *
                 * -1 for hole, which should be left at the end of each block
                 * to keep it partially used, with some free space available */
                for (i = 0; i < (VMAP_BBMAP_BITS - 16) / 8 - 1; i++) {
                        vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, 8, -1, PAGE_KERNEL);
                        vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, 8);
                }
  }

The idea behind is simple:

 1. We have to map a big chunk, e.g. 16 pages.

 2. Then we have to occupy the remaining space with smaller chunks, i.e.
    8 pages. At the end small hole should remain to keep block in free list,
    but do not let big chunk to occupy remaining space.

 3. Goto 1 - allocation request of 16 pages can't be completed (only 8 slots
    are left free in the block in the #2 step), new block will be allocated,
    all further requests will lay into newly allocated block.

To have some measurement numbers for all further tests I setup ftrace and
enabled 4 basic calls in a function profile:

        echo vm_map_ram              > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter;
        echo alloc_vmap_area        >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter;
        echo vm_unmap_ram           >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter;
        echo free_vmap_block        >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter;

So for this scenario I got these results:

SUMMARY:

The most interesting numbers in those tables are numbers of block
allocations and deallocations: alloc_vmap_area and free_vmap_block
calls, which show that before the change blocks were not freed, and
virtual space and physical memory (vmap_block structure allocations,
etc) were consumed.

Average time which were spent in vm_map_ram/vm_unmap_ram became slightly
better.  That can be explained with a reasonable amount of blocks in a
free list, which we need to iterate to find a suitable free block.

2) Another scenario is a random allocation:

  while (iters) {

                /* Randomly take number from a range [1..32/64] */
                nr = rand(1, VMAP_MAX_ALLOC);
                vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, nr, -1, PAGE_KERNEL);
                vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, nr);
  }

I chose mersenne twister PRNG to generate persistent random state to
guarantee that both runs have the same random sequence.  For each
vm_map_ram call random number from [1..32/64] was taken to represent
amount of pages which I do map.

I did 10'000 vm_map_ram calls and got these two tables:

  free_vmap_block                        412    574.421 us      1.394 us        15.138 us

SUMMARY:

'BEFORE' table shows, that 420 blocks were allocated and only 37 were
freed.  Remained 383 blocks are still in a free list, consuming virtual
space and physical memory.

'AFTER' table shows, that 414 blocks were allocated and 412 were really
freed.  2 blocks remained in a free list.

So fragmentation was dramatically reduced.  Why? Because when we put
newly allocated block to the head, all further requests will occupy new
block, regardless remained space in other blocks.  In this scenario all
requests come randomly.  Eventually remained free space will be less
than requested size, free list will be iterated and it is possible that
nothing will be found there - finally new block will be created.  So
exhaustion in random scenario happens for the maximum possible
allocation size: 32 pages for 32-bit system and 64 pages for 64-bit
system.

Also average cost of vm_map_ram was reduced from 1.017 us to 0.774 us.
Again this can be explained by iteration through smaller list of free
blocks.

3) Next simple scenario is a sequential allocation, when the allocation
   order is increased for each block.  This scenario forces allocator to
   reach maximum amount of partially free blocks in a free list:

  while (iters) {

                /* Populate free list with blocks with remaining space */
                for (order = 0; order <= ilog2(VMAP_MAX_ALLOC); order++) {
                        nr = VMAP_BBMAP_BITS / (1 << order);

                        /* Leave a hole */
                        nr -= 1;

                        for (i = 0; i < nr; i++) {
                                vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, (1 << order), -1, PAGE_KERNEL);
                                vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, (1 << order));
                }

                /* Completely occupy blocks from a free list */
                for (order = 0; order <= ilog2(VMAP_MAX_ALLOC); order++) {
                        vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, (1 << order), -1, PAGE_KERNEL);
                        vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, (1 << order));
                }
  }

SUMMARY:

No surprises here, almost all numbers are the same.

Fixing this fragmentation problem I also did some improvements in a
allocation logic of a new vmap block: occupy block immediately and get
rid of extra search in a free list.

Also I replaced dirty bitmap with min/max dirty range values to make the
logic simpler and slightly faster, since two longs comparison costs
less, than loop thru bitmap.

This patchset raises several questions:

 Q: Think the problem you comments is already known so that I wrote comments
    about it as "it could consume lots of address space through fragmentation".
    Could you tell me about your situation and reason why it should be avoided?
                                                                     Gioh Kim

 A: Indeed, there was a commit 364376383 which adds explicit comment about
    fragmentation.  But fragmentation which is described in this comment caused
    by mixing of long-lived and short-lived objects, when a whole block is pinned
    in memory because some page slots are still in use.  But here I am talking
    about blocks which are free, nobody uses them, and allocator keeps them alive
    forever, continuously allocating new blocks.

 Q: I think that if you put newly allocated block to the tail of a free
    list, below example would results in enormous performance degradation.

    new block: 1MB (256 pages)

    while (iters--) {
      vm_map_ram(3 or something else not dividable for 256) * 85
      vm_unmap_ram(3) * 85
    }

    On every iteration, it needs newly allocated block and it is put to the
    tail of a free list so finding it consumes large amount of time.
                                                                    Joonsoo Kim

 A: Second patch in current patchset gets rid of extra search in a free list,
    so new block will be immediately occupied..

    Also, the scenario above is impossible, cause vm_map_ram allocates virtual
    range in orders, i.e. 2^n.  I.e. passing 3 to vm_map_ram you will allocate
    4 slots in a block and 256 slots (capacity of a block) of course dividable
    on 4, so block will be completely occupied.

    But there is a worst case which we can achieve: each free block has a hole
    equal to order size.

    The maximum size of allocation is 64 pages for 64-bit system
    (if you try to map more, original alloc_vmap_area will be called).

    So the maximum order is 6.  That means that worst case, before allocator
    makes a decision to allocate a new block, is to iterate 7 blocks:

    HEAD
    1st block - has 1  page slot  free (order 0)
    2nd block - has 2  page slots free (order 1)
    3rd block - has 4  page slots free (order 2)
    4th block - has 8  page slots free (order 3)
    5th block - has 16 page slots free (order 4)
    6th block - has 32 page slots free (order 5)
    7th block - has 64 page slots free (order 6)
    TAIL

    So the worst scenario on 64-bit system is that each CPU queue can have 7
    blocks in a free list.

    This can happen only and only if you allocate blocks increasing the order.
    (as I did in the function written in the comment of the first patch)
    This is weird and rare case, but still it is possible.  Afterwards you will
    get 7 blocks in a list.

    All further requests should be placed in a newly allocated block or some
    free slots should be found in a free list.
    Seems it does not look dramatically awful.

This patch (of 3):

If suitable block can't be found, new block is allocated and put into a
head of a free list, so on next iteration this new block will be found
first.

That's bad, because old blocks in a free list will not get a chance to be
fully used, thus fragmentation will grow.

Let's consider this simple example:

 #1 We have one block in a free list which is partially used, and where only
    one page is free:

    HEAD |xxxxxxxxx-| TAIL
                   ^
                   free space for 1 page, order 0

 #2 New allocation request of order 1 (2 pages) comes, new block is allocated
    since we do not have free space to complete this request. New block is put
    into a head of a free list:

    HEAD |----------|xxxxxxxxx-| TAIL

 #3 Two pages were occupied in a new found block:

    HEAD |xx--------|xxxxxxxxx-| TAIL
          ^
          two pages mapped here

 #4 New allocation request of order 0 (1 page) comes.  Block, which was created
    on #2 step, is located at the beginning of a free list, so it will be found
    first:

  HEAD |xxX-------|xxxxxxxxx-| TAIL
          ^                 ^
          page mapped here, but better to use this hole

It is obvious, that it is better to complete request of #4 step using the
old block, where free space is left, because in other case fragmentation
will be highly increased.

But fragmentation is not only the case.  The worst thing is that I can
easily create scenario, when the whole vmalloc space is exhausted by
blocks, which are not used, but already dirty and have several free pages.

Let's consider this function which execution should be pinned to one CPU:

static void exhaust_virtual_space(struct page *pages[16], int iters)
{
        /* Firstly we have to map a big chunk, e.g. 16 pages.
         * Then we have to occupy the remaining space with smaller
         * chunks, i.e. 8 pages. At the end small hole should remain.
         * So at the end of our allocation sequence block looks like
         * this:
         *                XX  big chunk
         * |XXxxxxxxx-|    x  small chunk
         *                 -  hole, which is enough for a small chunk,
         *                    but is not enough for a big chunk
         */
        while (iters--) {
                int i;
                void *vaddr;

                /* Map/unmap big chunk */
                vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, 16, -1, PAGE_KERNEL);
                vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, 16);

                /* Map/unmap small chunks.
                 *
                 * -1 for hole, which should be left at the end of each block
                 * to keep it partially used, with some free space available */
                for (i = 0; i < (VMAP_BBMAP_BITS - 16) / 8 - 1; i++) {
                        vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, 8, -1, PAGE_KERNEL);
                        vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, 8);
                }
        }
}

On every iteration new block (1MB of vm area in my case) will be
allocated and then will be occupied, without attempt to resolve small
allocation request using previously allocated blocks in a free list.

In case of random allocation (size should be randomly taken from the
range [1..64] in 64-bit case or [1..32] in 32-bit case) situation is the
same: new blocks continue to appear if maximum possible allocation size
(32 or 64) passed to the allocator, because all remaining blocks in a
free list do not have enough free space to complete this allocation
request.

In summary if new blocks are put into the head of a free list eventually
virtual space will be exhausted.

In current patch I simply put newly allocated block to the tail of a
free list, thus reduce fragmentation, giving a chance to resolve
allocation request using older blocks with possible holes left.

at mount time, those global pages could be grabbed for some other use.  As
a result, filesystem huge page allocations may fail due to lack of pages.

Applications such as a database want to use huge pages for performance
reasons.  hugetlbfs filesystem semantics with ownership and modes work
well to manage access to a pool of huge pages.  However, the application
would like some reasonable assurance that allocations will not fail due to
a lack of huge pages.  At application startup time, the application would
like to configure itself to use a specific number of huge pages.  Before
starting, the application can check to make sure that enough huge pages
exist in the system global pools.  However, there are no guarantees that
those pages will be available when needed by the application.  What the
application wants is exclusive use of a subset of huge pages.

Add a new hugetlbfs mount option 'min_size=<value>' to indicate that the
specified number of pages will be available for use by the filesystem.  At
mount time, this number of huge pages will be reserved for exclusive use
of the filesystem.  If there is not a sufficient number of free pages, the
mount will fail.  As pages are allocated to and freeed from the
filesystem, the number of reserved pages is adjusted so that the specified
minimum is maintained.

This patch (of 4):

Add a field to the subpool structure to indicate the minimimum number of
huge pages to always be used by this subpool.  This minimum count includes
allocated pages as well as reserved pages.  If the minimum number of pages
for the subpool have not been allocated, pages are reserved up to this
minimum.  An additional field (rsv_hpages) is used to track the number of
pages reserved to meet this minimum size.  The hstate pointer in the
subpool is convenient to have when reserving and unreserving the pages.

9 years agomm, memcg: sync allocation and memcg charge gfp flags for THP

mm, memcg: sync allocation and memcg charge gfp flags for THP

memcg currently uses hardcoded GFP_TRANSHUGE gfp flags for all THP
charges.  THP allocations, however, might be using different flags
depending on /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/{,khugepaged/}defrag and
the current allocation context.

The primary difference is that defrag configured to "madvise" value will
clear __GFP_WAIT flag from the core gfp mask to make the allocation
lighter for all mappings which are not backed by VM_HUGEPAGE vmas.  If
memcg charge path ignores this fact we will get light allocation but the a
potential memcg reclaim would kill the whole point of the configuration.

Fix the mismatch by providing the same gfp mask used for the allocation to
the charge functions.  This is quite easy for all paths except for
hugepaged kernel thread with !CONFIG_NUMA which is doing a pre-allocation
long before the allocated page is used in collapse_huge_page via
khugepaged_alloc_page.  To prevent from cluttering the whole code path
from khugepaged_do_scan we simply return the current flags as per
khugepaged_defrag() value which might have changed since the
preallocation.  If somebody changed the value of the knob we would charge
differently but this shouldn't happen often and it is definitely not
critical because it would only lead to a reduced success rate of one-off
THP promotion.

9 years agomm: allow compaction of unevictable pages
Eric B Munson [Wed, 15 Apr 2015 23:13:20 +0000 (16:13 -0700)]
mm: allow compaction of unevictable pages

Currently, pages which are marked as unevictable are protected from
compaction, but not from other types of migration.  The POSIX real time
extension explicitly states that mlock() will prevent a major page
fault, but the spirit of this is that mlock() should give a process the
ability to control sources of latency, including minor page faults.
However, the mlock manpage only explicitly says that a locked page will
not be written to swap and this can cause some confusion.  The
compaction code today does not give a developer who wants to avoid swap
but wants to have large contiguous areas available any method to achieve
this state.  This patch introduces a sysctl for controlling compaction
behavior with respect to the unevictable lru.  Users who demand no page
faults after a page is present can set compact_unevictable_allowed to 0
and users who need the large contiguous areas can enable compaction on
locked memory by leaving the default value of 1.

To illustrate this problem I wrote a quick test program that mmaps a
large number of 1MB files filled with random data.  These maps are
created locked and read only.  Then every other mmap is unmapped and I
attempt to allocate huge pages to the static huge page pool.  When the
compact_unevictable_allowed sysctl is 0, I cannot allocate hugepages
after fragmenting memory.  When the value is set to 1, allocations
succeed.

9 years agomm: avoid tail page refcounting on non-THP compound pages

mm: avoid tail page refcounting on non-THP compound pages

THP uses tail page refcounting to be able to split huge pages at any time.
 Tail page refcounting is not needed for other users of compound pages and
it's harmful because of overhead.

We try to exclude non-THP pages from tail page refcounting using
__compound_tail_refcounted() check.  It excludes most common non-THP
compound pages: SL*B and hugetlb, but it doesn't catch rest of __GFP_COMP
users -- drivers.

And it's not only about overhead.

Drivers might want to use compound pages to get refcounting semantics
suitable for mapping high-order pages to userspace.  But tail page
refcounting breaks it.

Tail page refcounting uses ->_mapcount in tail pages to store GUP pins on
them.  It means GUP pins would affect page_mapcount() for tail pages.
It's not a problem for THP, because it never maps tail pages.  But unlike
THP, drivers map parts of compound pages with PTEs and it makes
page_mapcount() be called for tail pages.

In particular, GUP pins would shift PSS up and affect /proc/kpagecount for
such pages.  But, I'm not aware about anything which can lead to crash or
other serious misbehaviour.

Since currently all THP pages are anonymous and all drivers pages are not,
we can fix the __compound_tail_refcounted() check by requiring PageAnon()
to enable tail page refcounting.

mm: consolidate all page-flags helpers in <linux/page-flags.h>

Currently we take a naive approach to page flags on compound pages - we
set the flag on the page without consideration if the flag makes sense
for tail page or for compound page in general.  This patchset try to
sort this out by defining per-flag policy on what need to be done if
page-flag helper operate on compound page.

The last patch in the patchset also sanitizes usege of page->mapping for
tail pages.  We don't define the meaning of page->mapping for tail
pages.  Currently it's always NULL, which can be inconsistent with head
page and potentially lead to problems.

For now I caught one case of illegal usage of page flags or ->mapping:
sound subsystem allocates pages with __GFP_COMP and maps them with PTEs.
It leads to setting dirty bit on tail pages and access to tail_page's
->mapping.  I don't see any bad behaviour caused by this, but worth
fixing anyway.

This patchset makes more sense if you take my THP refcounting into
account: we will see more compound pages mapped with PTEs and we need to
define behaviour of flags on compound pages to avoid bugs.

This patch (of 16):

We have page-flags helper function declarations/definitions spread over
several header files.  Let's consolidate them in <linux/page-flags.h>.

Pull ARM updates from Russell King:
 "Included in this update are both some long term fixes and some new
  features.

  Fixes:

   - An integer overflow in the calculation of ELF_ET_DYN_BASE.

   - Avoiding OOMs for high-order IOMMU allocations

   - SMP requires the data cache to be enabled for synchronisation
     primitives to work, so prevent the CPU_DCACHE_DISABLE option being
     visible on SMP builds.

   - A bug going back 10+ years in the noMMU ARM94* CPU support code,
     where it corrupts registers.  Found by folk getting Linux running
     on their cameras.

   - Versatile Express needs an errata workaround enabled for CPU
     hot-unplug to work.

  Features:

   - Clean up module linker by handling out of range relocations
     separately from relocation cases we don't handle.

   - Fix a long term bug in the pci_mmap_page_range() code, which we
     hope won't impact userspace (we hope there's no users of the
     existing broken interface.)

   - Don't map DMA coherent allocations when we don't have a MMU.

   - Drop experimental status for SMP_ON_UP.

   - Warn when DT doesn't specify ePAPR mandatory cache properties.

   - Add documentation concerning how we find the start of physical
     memory for AUTO_ZRELADDR kernels, detailing why we have chosen the
     mask and the implications of changing it.

   - Updates from Ard Biesheuvel to address some issues with large
     kernels (such as allyesconfig) failing to link.

   - Allow hibernation to work on modern (ARMv7) CPUs - this appears to
     have never worked in the past on these CPUs.

   - Enable IRQ_SHOW_LEVEL, which changes the /proc/interrupts output
     format (hopefully without userspace breaking...  let's hope that if
     it causes someone a problem, they tell us.)

   - Fix tegra-ahb DT offsets.

   - Rework ARM errata 643719 code (and ARMv7 flush_cache_louis()/
     flush_dcache_all()) code to be more efficient, and enable this
     errata workaround by default for ARMv7+SMP CPUs.  This complements
     the Versatile Express fix above.

   - Rework ARMv7 context code for errata 430973, so that only Cortex A8
     CPUs are impacted by the branch target buffer flush when this
     errata is enabled.  Also update the help text to indicate that all
     r1p* A8 CPUs are impacted.

   - Switch ARM to the generic show_mem() implementation, it conveys all
     the information which we were already reporting.

   - Prevent slow timer sources being used for udelay() - timers running
     at less than 1MHz are not useful for this, and can cause udelay()
     to return immediately, without any wait.  Using such a slow timer
     is silly.

   - VDSO support for 32-bit ARM, mainly for gettimeofday() using the
     ARM architected timer.

   - Perf support for Scorpion performance monitoring units"

====================
Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2015-04-14

This series contains updates to fm10k only.

Fixed transmit statistics which was actually using values from the
receive ring, instead of the transmit ring.  Fixed up spelling mistakes
in code comments and resolved unused argument warnings.  Added support
for netconsole.  Fixed up statistic reporting so that we are only
reporting from actual queues as well as display PF only stats for
just the PF and not the VF.  Also fixed an issue that when returning
virtualization queues from the VF back to the PF, we were retaining
the VF rate limiter.

Fixed up the driver to use a separate workqueue, which helps reduce
and stabilize latency between scheduling the work in our interrupt and
actually performing the work.

Fixed a bug where the VF tried to set a multicast address before
requesting the required xcast mode.

Fix VF multicast update since VFs were being improperly added to the
switch's mutlicast group.  The error stems from the fact that incorrect
arguments were passed to the update_mc_addr().

mm: move memtest under mm

patterns and validates memory contents, if bad memory regions is detected
it reserves them via memblock API.  Since memblock API is widely used by
other architectures this feature can be enabled outside of x86 world.

This patch set promotes memtest to live under generic mm umbrella and
enables memtest feature for arm/arm64.

It was reported that this patch set was useful for tracking down an issue
with some errant DMA on an arm64 platform.

This patch (of 6):

There is nothing platform dependent in the core memtest code, so other
platforms might benefit from this feature too.

even those that don't support ET_DYN ASLR. To avoid bulky extern/#define
tricks, consolidate the support under CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_ELF_RANDOMIZE for
the architectures that support it, while still handling CONFIG_COMPAT_BRK.

This fixes the "offset2lib" weakness in ASLR for arm, arm64, mips,
powerpc, and x86.  The problem is that if there is a leak of ASLR from
the executable (ET_DYN), it means a leak of shared library offset as
well (mmap), and vice versa.  Further details and a PoC of this attack
is available here:

  http://cybersecurity.upv.es/attacks/offset2lib/offset2lib.html

With this patch, a PIE linked executable (ET_DYN) has its own ASLR

fs/binfmt_elf.c: fix bug in loading of PIE binaries

With CONFIG_ARCH_BINFMT_ELF_RANDOMIZE_PIE enabled, and a normal top-down
address allocation strategy, load_elf_binary() will attempt to map a PIE
binary into an address range immediately below mm->mmap_base.

Unfortunately, load_elf_ binary() does not take account of the need to
allocate sufficient space for the entire binary which means that, while
the first PT_LOAD segment is mapped below mm->mmap_base, the subsequent
PT_LOAD segment(s) end up being mapped above mm->mmap_base into the are
that is supposed to be the "gap" between the stack and the binary.

Since the size of the "gap" on x86_64 is only guaranteed to be 128MB this
means that binaries with large data segments > 128MB can end up mapping
part of their data segment over their stack resulting in corruption of the
stack (and the data segment once the binary starts to run).

Any PIE binary with a data segment > 128MB is vulnerable to this although
address randomization means that the actual gap between the stack and the
end of the binary is normally greater than 128MB.  The larger the data
segment of the binary the higher the probability of failure.

Fix this by calculating the total size of the binary in the same way as
load_elf_interp().

pud_set_huge() and pmd_set_huge() call mtrr_type_lookup() to see if a

mm: change __get_vm_area_node() to use fls_long()

ioremap() and its related interfaces are used to create I/O mappings to
memory-mapped I/O devices.  The mapping sizes of the traditional I/O
devices are relatively small.  Non-volatile memory (NVM), however, has
many GB and is going to have TB soon.  It is not very efficient to create
large I/O mappings with 4KB.

This patchset extends the ioremap() interfaces to transparently create I/O
mappings with huge pages whenever possible.  ioremap() continues to use
4KB mappings when a huge page does not fit into a requested range.  There
is no change necessary to the drivers using ioremap().  A requested
physical address must be aligned by a huge page size (1GB or 2MB on x86)
for using huge page mapping, though.  The kernel huge I/O mapping will
improve performance of NVM and other devices with large memory, and reduce
the time to create their mappings as well.

On x86, MTRRs can override PAT memory types with a 4KB granularity.  When
using a huge page, MTRRs can override the memory type of the huge page,
which may lead a performance penalty.  The processor can also behave in an
undefined manner if a huge page is mapped to a memory range that MTRRs
have mapped with multiple different memory types.  Therefore, the mapping
code falls back to use a smaller page size toward 4KB when a mapping range
is covered by non-WB type of MTRRs.  The WB type of MTRRs has no affect on
the PAT memory types.

The patchset introduces HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMAP, which indicates that the arch
supports huge KVA mappings for ioremap().  User may specify a new kernel
option "nohugeiomap" to disable the huge I/O mapping capability of
ioremap() when necessary.

Patch 1-4 change common files to support huge I/O mappings.  There is no
change in the functinalities unless HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMAP is defined on the
architecture of the system.

Patch 5-6 implement the HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMAP funcs on x86, and set
HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMAP on x86.

This patch (of 6):

__get_vm_area_node() takes unsigned long size, which is a 64-bit value on
a 64-bit kernel.  However, fls(size) simply ignores the upper 32-bit.
Change to use fls_long() to handle the size properly.

Commit 077fcf116c8c ("mm/thp: allocate transparent hugepages on local

allocating transparent hugepages locally when there was not an effective
interleave mempolicy.

alloc_pages_exact_node() does not limit the allocation to the single node,
however, but rather prefers it.  This is because __GFP_THISNODE is not set
which would cause the node-local nodemask to be passed.  Without it, only
a nodemask that prefers the local node is passed.

Fix this by passing __GFP_THISNODE and falling back to small pages when
the allocation fails.

Commit 9f1b868a13ac ("mm: thp: khugepaged: add policy for finding target

mm: remove GFP_THISNODE

NOTE: this is not about __GFP_THISNODE, this is only about GFP_THISNODE.

GFP_THISNODE is a secret combination of gfp bits that have different
behavior than expected.  It is a combination of __GFP_THISNODE,
__GFP_NORETRY, and __GFP_NOWARN and is special-cased in the page
allocator slowpath to fail without trying reclaim even though it may be
used in combination with __GFP_WAIT.

An example of the problem this creates: commit e97ca8e5b864 ("mm: fix
GFP_THISNODE callers and clarify") fixed up many users of GFP_THISNODE
that really just wanted __GFP_THISNODE.  The problem doesn't end there,
however, because even it was a no-op for alloc_misplaced_dst_page(),
which also sets __GFP_NORETRY and __GFP_NOWARN, and
migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page(), where __GFP_NORETRY and __GFP_NOWAIT
is set in GFP_TRANSHUGE.  Converting GFP_THISNODE to __GFP_THISNODE is a
no-op in these cases since the page allocator special-cases
__GFP_THISNODE && __GFP_NORETRY && __GFP_NOWARN.

It's time to just remove GFP_THISNODE entirely.  We leave __GFP_THISNODE
to restrict an allocation to a local node, but remove GFP_THISNODE and
its obscurity.  Instead, we require that a caller clear __GFP_WAIT if it
wants to avoid reclaim.

This allows the aforementioned functions to actually reclaim as they
should.  It also enables any future callers that want to do
__GFP_THISNODE but also __GFP_NORETRY && __GFP_NOWARN to reclaim.  The
rule is simple: if you don't want to reclaim, then don't set __GFP_WAIT.

Aside: ovs_flow_stats_update() really wants to avoid reclaim as well, so
it is unchanged.

cleancache: remove limit on the number of cleancache enabled filesystems

The limit equals 32 and is imposed by the number of entries in the
fs_poolid_map and shared_fs_poolid_map.  Nowadays it is insufficient,
because with containers on board a Linux host can have hundreds of
active fs mounts.

These maps were introduced by commit 49a9ab815acb8 ("mm: cleancache:
lazy initialization to allow tmem backends to build/run as modules") in
order to allow compiling cleancache drivers as modules.  Real pool ids
are stored in these maps while super_block->cleancache_poolid points to
an entry in the map, so that on cleancache registration we can walk over
all (if there are <= 32 of them, of course) cleancache-enabled super
blocks and assign real pool ids.

Actually, there is absolutely no need in these maps, because we can
iterate over all super blocks immediately using iterate_supers.  This is
not racy, because cleancache_init_ops is called from mount_fs with
super_block->s_umount held for writing, while iterate_supers takes this
semaphore for reading, so if we call iterate_supers after setting
cleancache_ops, all super blocks that had been created before
cleancache_register_ops was called will be assigned pool ids by the
action function of iterate_supers while all newer super blocks will
receive it in cleancache_init_fs.

This patch therefore removes the maps and hence the artificial limit on
the number of cleancache enabled filesystems.

Currently, cleancache_register_ops returns the previous value of

implemented now, is extremely dangerous due to possible pool id
collisions.  Suppose, a new cleancache driver is registered after the
previous one assigned an id to a super block.  If the new driver assigns
the same id to another super block, which is perfectly possible, we will
have two different filesystems using the same id.  No matter if the new
driver implements chaining or not, we are likely to get data corruption
with such a configuration eventually.

This patch therefore disables the ability to override cleancache_ops
altogether as potentially dangerous.  If there is already cleancache
driver registered, all further calls to cleancache_register_ops will
return EBUSY.  Since no user of cleancache implements chaining, we only

9 years agomm: refactor do_wp_page, extract the reuse case
Shachar Raindel [Tue, 14 Apr 2015 22:46:25 +0000 (15:46 -0700)]
mm: refactor do_wp_page, extract the reuse case

Currently do_wp_page contains 265 code lines.  It also contains 9 goto
statements, of which 5 are targeting labels which are not cleanup
related.  This makes the function extremely difficult to understand.

The following patches are an attempt at breaking the function to its
basic components, and making it easier to understand.

The patches are straight forward function extractions from do_wp_page.
As we extract functions, we remove unneeded parameters and simplify the
code as much as possible.  However, the functionality is supposed to
remain completely unchanged.  The patches also attempt to document the
functionality of each extracted function.  In patch 2, we split the
unlock logic to the contain logic relevant to specific needs of each use
case, instead of having huge number of conditional decisions in a single
unlock flow.

This patch (of 4):

When do_wp_page is ending, in several cases it needs to reuse the existing
page.  This is achieved by making the page table writable, and possibly
updating the page-cache state.

Currently, this logic was "called" by using a goto jump.  This makes
following the control flow of the function harder.  It is also against the
coding style guidelines for using goto.

As the code can easily be refactored into a specialized function, refactor
it out and simplify the code flow in do_wp_page.
