2022-03-23panic: move panic_print before kmsg dumpersGuilherme G. Piccoli1-0/+4
The panic_print setting allows users to collect more information in a panic event, like memory stats, tasks, CPUs backtraces, etc. This is an interesting debug mechanism, but currently the print event happens *after* kmsg_dump(), meaning that pstore, for example, cannot collect a dmesg with the panic_print extra information. This patch changes that in 2 steps: (a) The panic_print setting allows to replay the existing kernel log buffer to the console (bit 5), besides the extra information dump. This functionality makes sense only at the end of the panic() function. So, we hereby allow to distinguish the two situations by a new boolean parameter in the function panic_print_sys_info(). (b) With the above change, we can safely call panic_print_sys_info() before kmsg_dump(), allowing to dump the extra information when using pstore or other kmsg dumpers. The additional messages from panic_print could overwrite the oldest messages when the buffer is full. The only reasonable solution is to use a large enough log buffer, hence we added an advice into the kernel parameters documentation about that.

2022-03-23panic: add option to dump all CPUs backtraces in panic_printGuilherme G. Piccoli2-0/+2
Currently the "panic_print" parameter/sysctl allows some interesting debug information to be printed during a panic event. This is useful for example in cases the user cannot kdump due to resource limits, or if the user collects panic logs in a serial output (or pstore) and prefers a fast reboot instead of a kdump. Happens that currently there's no way to see all CPUs backtraces in a panic using "panic_print" on architectures that support that. We do have "oops_all_cpu_backtrace" sysctl, but although partially overlapping in the functionality, they are orthogonal in nature: "panic_print" is a panic tuning (and we have panics without oopses, like direct calls to panic() or maybe other paths that don't go through oops_enter() function), and the original purpose of "oops_all_cpu_backtrace" is to provide more information on oopses for cases in which the users desire to continue running the kernel even after an oops, i.e., used in non-panic scenarios. So, we hereby introduce an additional bit for "panic_print" to allow dumping the CPUs backtraces during a panic event.

2022-03-23docs: sysctl/kernel: add missing bit to panic_printGuilherme G. Piccoli1-0/+1
Patch series "Some improvements on panic_print". This is a mix of a documentation fix with some additions to the "panic_print" syscall / parameter. The goal here is being able to collect all CPUs backtraces during a panic event and also to enable "panic_print" in a kdump event - details of the reasoning and design choices in the patches. This patch (of 3): Commit de6da1e8bcf0 ("panic: add an option to replay all the printk message in buffer") added a new bit to the sysctl/kernel parameter "panic_print", but the documentation was added only in kernel-parameters.txt, not in the sysctl guide. Fix it here by adding bit 5 to sysctl admin-guide documentation.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - New user_events interface. User space can register an event with the kernel describing the format of the event. Then it will receive a byte in a page mapping that it can check against. A privileged task can then enable that event like any other event, which will change the mapped byte to true, telling the user space application to start writing the event to the tracing buffer. - Add new "ftrace_boot_snapshot" kernel command line parameter. When set, the tracing buffer will be saved in the snapshot buffer at boot up when the kernel hands things over to user space. This will keep the traces that happened at boot up available even if user space boot up has tracing as well. - Have TRACE_EVENT_ENUM() also update trace event field type descriptions. Thus if a static array defines its size with an enum, the user space trace event parsers can still know how to parse that array. - Add new TRACE_CUSTOM_EVENT() macro. This acts the same as the TRACE_EVENT() macro, but will attach to an existing tracepoint. This will make one tracepoint be able to trace different content and not be stuck at only what the original TRACE_EVENT() macro exports. - Fixes to tracing error logging. - Better saving of cmdlines to PIDs when tracing (use the wakeup events for mapping). * tag 'trace-v5.18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: (30 commits) tracing: Have type enum modifications copy the strings user_events: Add trace event call as root for low permission cases tracing/user_events: Use alloc_pages instead of kzalloc() for register pages tracing: Add snapshot at end of kernel boot up tracing: Have TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM affect trace event types as well tracing: Fix strncpy warning in trace_events_synth.c user_events: Prevent dyn_event delete racing with ioctl add/delete tracing: Add TRACE_CUSTOM_EVENT() macro tracing: Move the defines to create TRACE_EVENTS into their own files tracing: Add sample code for custom trace events tracing: Allow custom events to be added to the tracefs directory tracing: Fix last_cmd_set() string management in histogram code user_events: Fix potential uninitialized pointer while parsing field tracing: Fix allocation of last_cmd in last_cmd_set() user_events: Add documentation file user_events: Add sample code for typical usage user_events: Add self-test for validator boundaries user_events: Add self-test for perf_event integration user_events: Add self-test for dynamic_events integration user_events: Add self-test for ftrace integration ...

2022-03-22mm/zswap.c: allow handling just same-value filled pagesMaciej S. Szmigiero1-3/+19
Zswap has an ability to efficiently store same-value filled pages, which can be turned on and off using the "same_filled_pages_enabled" parameter. However, there is currently no way to enable just this (lightweight) functionality, while not making use of the whole compressed page storage machinery. Add a "non_same_filled_pages_enabled" parameter which allows disabling handling of pages that aren't same-value filled. This way zswap can be run in such lightweight same-value filled pages only mode.

2022-03-22NUMA balancing: optimize page placement for memory tiering systemHuang Ying1-9/+20
With the advent of various new memory types, some machines will have multiple types of memory, e.g. DRAM and PMEM (persistent memory). The memory subsystem of these machines can be called memory tiering system, because the performance of the different types of memory are usually different. In such system, because of the memory accessing pattern changing etc, some pages in the slow memory may become hot globally. So in this patch, the NUMA balancing mechanism is enhanced to optimize the page placement among the different memory types according to hot/cold dynamically. In a typical memory tiering system, there are CPUs, fast memory and slow memory in each physical NUMA node. The CPUs and the fast memory will be put in one logical node (called fast memory node), while the slow memory will be put in another (faked) logical node (called slow memory node). That is, the fast memory is regarded as local while the slow memory is regarded as remote. So it's possible for the recently accessed pages in the slow memory node to be promoted to the fast memory node via the existing NUMA balancing mechanism. The original NUMA balancing mechanism will stop to migrate pages if the free memory of the target node becomes below the high watermark. This is a reasonable policy if there's only one memory type. But this makes the original NUMA balancing mechanism almost do not work to optimize page placement among different memory types. Details are as follows. It's the common cases that the working-set size of the workload is larger than the size of the fast memory nodes. Otherwise, it's unnecessary to use the slow memory at all. So, there are almost always no enough free pages in the fast memory nodes, so that the globally hot pages in the slow memory node cannot be promoted to the fast memory node. To solve the issue, we have 2 choices as follows, a. Ignore the free pages watermark checking when promoting hot pages from the slow memory node to the fast memory node. This will create some memory pressure in the fast memory node, thus trigger the memory reclaiming. So that, the cold pages in the fast memory node will be demoted to the slow memory node. b. Define a new watermark called wmark_promo which is higher than wmark_high, and have kswapd reclaiming pages until free pages reach such watermark. The scenario is as follows: when we want to promote hot-pages from a slow memory to a fast memory, but fast memory's free pages would go lower than high watermark with such promotion, we wake up kswapd with wmark_promo watermark in order to demote cold pages and free us up some space. So, next time we want to promote hot-pages we might have a chance of doing so. The choice "a" may create high memory pressure in the fast memory node. If the memory pressure of the workload is high, the memory pressure may become so high that the memory allocation latency of the workload is influenced, e.g. the direct reclaiming may be triggered. The choice "b" works much better at this aspect. If the memory pressure of the workload is high, the hot pages promotion will stop earlier because its allocation watermark is higher than that of the normal memory allocation. So in this patch, choice "b" is implemented. A new zone watermark (WMARK_PROMO) is added. Which is larger than the high watermark and can be controlled via watermark_scale_factor. In addition to the original page placement optimization among sockets, the NUMA balancing mechanism is extended to be used to optimize page placement according to hot/cold among different memory types. So the sysctl user space interface (numa_balancing) is extended in a backward compatible way as follow, so that the users can enable/disable these functionality individually. The sysctl is converted from a Boolean value to a bits field. The definition of the flags is, - 0: NUMA_BALANCING_DISABLED - 1: NUMA_BALANCING_NORMAL - 2: NUMA_BALANCING_MEMORY_TIERING We have tested the patch with the pmbench memory accessing benchmark with the 80:20 read/write ratio and the Gauss access address distribution on a 2 socket Intel server with Optane DC Persistent Memory Model. The test results shows that the pmbench score can improve up to 95.9%. Thanks Andrew Morton to help fix the document format error.

2022-03-22mm: hugetlb: free the 2nd vmemmap page associated with each HugeTLB pageMuchun Song1-1/+1
Patch series "Free the 2nd vmemmap page associated with each HugeTLB page", v7. This series can minimize the overhead of struct page for 2MB HugeTLB pages significantly. It further reduces the overhead of struct page by 12.5% for a 2MB HugeTLB compared to the previous approach, which means 2GB per 1TB HugeTLB. It is a nice gain. Comments and reviews are welcome. Thanks. The main implementation and details can refer to the commit log of patch 1. In this series, I have changed the following four helpers, the following table shows the impact of the overhead of those helpers. +------------------+-----------------------+ | APIs | head page | tail page | +------------------+-----------+-----------+ | PageHead() | Y | N | +------------------+-----------+-----------+ | PageTail() | Y | N | +------------------+-----------+-----------+ | PageCompound() | N | N | +------------------+-----------+-----------+ | compound_head() | Y | N | +------------------+-----------+-----------+ Y: Overhead is increased. N: Overhead is _NOT_ increased. It shows that the overhead of those helpers on a tail page don't change between "hugetlb_free_vmemmap=on" and "hugetlb_free_vmemmap=off". But the overhead on a head page will be increased when "hugetlb_free_vmemmap=on" (except PageCompound()). So I believe that Matthew Wilcox's folio series will help with this. The users of PageHead() and PageTail() are much less than compound_head() and most users of PageTail() are VM_BUG_ON(), so I have done some tests about the overhead of compound_head() on head pages. I have tested the overhead of calling compound_head() on a head page, which is 2.11ns (Measure the call time of 10 million times compound_head(), and then average). For a head page whose address is not aligned with PAGE_SIZE or a non-compound page, the overhead of compound_head() is 2.54ns which is increased by 20%. For a head page whose address is aligned with PAGE_SIZE, the overhead of compound_head() is 2.97ns which is increased by 40%. Most pages are the former. I do not think the overhead is significant since the overhead of compound_head() itself is low. This patch (of 5): This patch minimizes the overhead of struct page for 2MB HugeTLB pages significantly. It further reduces the overhead of struct page by 12.5% for a 2MB HugeTLB compared to the previous approach, which means 2GB per 1TB HugeTLB (2MB type). After the feature of "Free sonme vmemmap pages of HugeTLB page" is enabled, the mapping of the vmemmap addresses associated with a 2MB HugeTLB page becomes the figure below. HugeTLB struct pages(8 pages) page frame(8 pages) +-----------+ ---virt_to_page---> +-----------+ mapping to +-----------+---> PG_head | | | 0 | -------------> | 0 | | | +-----------+ +-----------+ | | | 1 | -------------> | 1 | | | +-----------+ +-----------+ | | | 2 | ----------------^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ | | +-----------+ | | | | | | | | 3 | ------------------+ | | | | | | +-----------+ | | | | | | | 4 | --------------------+ | | | | 2MB | +-----------+ | | | | | | 5 | ----------------------+ | | | | +-----------+ | | | | | 6 | ------------------------+ | | | +-----------+ | | | | 7 | --------------------------+ | | +-----------+ | | | | | | +-----------+ As we can see, the 2nd vmemmap page frame (indexed by 1) is reused and remaped. However, the 2nd vmemmap page frame is also can be freed to the buddy allocator, then we can change the mapping from the figure above to the figure below. HugeTLB struct pages(8 pages) page frame(8 pages) +-----------+ ---virt_to_page---> +-----------+ mapping to +-----------+---> PG_head | | | 0 | -------------> | 0 | | | +-----------+ +-----------+ | | | 1 | ---------------^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ | | +-----------+ | | | | | | | | | 2 | -----------------+ | | | | | | | +-----------+ | | | | | | | | 3 | -------------------+ | | | | | | +-----------+ | | | | | | | 4 | ---------------------+ | | | | 2MB | +-----------+ | | | | | | 5 | -----------------------+ | | | | +-----------+ | | | | | 6 | -------------------------+ | | | +-----------+ | | | | 7 | ---------------------------+ | | +-----------+ | | | | | | +-----------+ After we do this, all tail vmemmap pages (1-7) are mapped to the head vmemmap page frame (0). In other words, there are more than one page struct with PG_head associated with each HugeTLB page. We __know__ that there is only one head page struct, the tail page structs with PG_head are fake head page structs. We need an approach to distinguish between those two different types of page structs so that compound_head(), PageHead() and PageTail() can work properly if the parameter is the tail page struct but with PG_head. The following code snippet describes how to distinguish between real and fake head page struct. if (test_bit(PG_head, &page->flags)) { unsigned long head = READ_ONCE(page[1].compound_head); if (head & 1) { if (head == (unsigned long)page + 1) ==> head page struct else ==> tail page struct } else ==> head page struct } We can safely access the field of the @page[1] with PG_head because the @page is a compound page composed with at least two contiguous pages.

2022-03-22mm/memcg: disable threshold event handlers on PREEMPT_RTSebastian Andrzej Siewior1-0/+2
During the integration of PREEMPT_RT support, the code flow around memcg_check_events() resulted in `twisted code'. Moving the code around and avoiding then would then lead to an additional local-irq-save section within memcg_check_events(). While looking better, it adds a local-irq-save section to code flow which is usually within an local-irq-off block on non-PREEMPT_RT configurations. The threshold event handler is a deprecated memcg v1 feature. Instead of trying to get it to work under PREEMPT_RT just disable it. There should be no users on PREEMPT_RT. From that perspective it makes even less sense to get it to work under PREEMPT_RT while having zero users. Make memory.soft_limit_in_bytes and cgroup.event_control return -EOPNOTSUPP on PREEMPT_RT. Make an empty memcg_check_events() and memcg_write_event_control() which return only -EOPNOTSUPP on PREEMPT_RT. Document that the two knobs are disabled on PREEMPT_RT.

2022-03-22memcg: add per-memcg total kernel memory statYosry Ahmed1-0/+5
Currently memcg stats show several types of kernel memory: kernel stack, page tables, sock, vmalloc, and slab. However, there are other allocations with __GFP_ACCOUNT (or supersets such as GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT) that are not accounted in any of those stats, a few examples are: - various kvm allocations (e.g. allocated pages to create vcpus) - io_uring - tmp_page in pipes during pipe_write() - bpf ringbuffers - unix sockets Keeping track of the total kernel memory is essential for the ease of migration from cgroup v1 to v2 as there are large discrepancies between v1's kmem.usage_in_bytes and the sum of the available kernel memory stats in v2. Adding separate memcg stats for all __GFP_ACCOUNT kernel allocations is an impractical maintenance burden as there a lot of those all over the kernel code, with more use cases likely to show up in the future. Therefore, add a "kernel" memcg stat that is analogous to kmem page counter, with added benefits such as using rstat infrastructure which aggregates stats more efficiently. Additionally, this provides a lighter alternative in case the legacy kmem is deprecated in the future [yosryahmed@google.com: v2] Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220203193856.972500-1-yosryahmed@google.com Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220201200823.3283171-1-yosryahmed@google.com Signed-off-by: Yosry Ahmed <yosryahmed@google.com> Acked-by: Shakeel Butt <shakeelb@google.com> Acked-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@kernel.org> Cc: Muchun Song <songmuchun@bytedance.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Pull random number generator updates from Jason Donenfeld: "There have been a few important changes to the RNG's crypto, but the intent for 5.18 has been to shore up the existing design as much as possible with modern cryptographic functions and proven constructions, rather than actually changing up anything fundamental to the RNG's design. So it's still the same old RNG at its core as before: it still counts entropy bits, and collects from the various sources with the same heuristics as before, and so forth. However, the cryptographic algorithms that transform that entropic data into safe random numbers have been modernized. Just as important, if not more, is that the code has been cleaned up and re-documented. As one of the first drivers in Linux, going back to 1.3.30, its general style and organization was showing its age and becoming both a maintenance burden and an auditability impediment. Hopefully this provides a more solid foundation to build on for the future. I encourage you to open up the file in full, and maybe you'll remark, "oh, that's what it's doing," and enjoy reading it. That, at least, is the eventual goal, which this pull begins working toward. Here's a summary of the various patches in this pull: - /dev/urandom and /dev/random now do the same thing, per the patch we discussed on the list. I think this is worth trying out. If it does appear problematic, I've made sure to keep it standalone and revertible without any conflicts. - Fixes and cleanups for numerous integer type problems, locking issues, and general code quality concerns. - The input pool's LFSR has been replaced with a cryptographically secure hash function, which has security and performance benefits alike, and consequently allows us to count entropy bits linearly. - The pre-init injection now uses a real hash function too, instead of an LFSR or vanilla xor. - The interrupt handler's fast_mix() function now uses one round of SipHash, rather than the fake crypto that was there before. - All additions of RDRAND and RDSEED now go through the input pool's hash function, in part to mitigate ridiculous hypothetical CPU backdoors, but more so to have a consistent interface for ingesting entropy that's easy to analyze, making everything happen one way, instead of a potpourri of different ways. - The crng now works on per-cpu data, while also being in accordance with the actual "fast key erasure RNG" design. This allows us to fix several boot-time race complications associated with the prior dynamically allocated model, eliminates much locking, and makes our backtrack protection more robust. - Batched entropy now erases doled out values so that it's backtrack resistant. - Working closely with Sebastian, the interrupt handler no longer needs to take any locks at all, as we punt the synchronized/expensive operations to a workqueue. This is especially nice for PREEMPT_RT, where taking spinlocks in irq context is problematic. It also makes the handler faster for the rest of us. - Also working with Sebastian, we now do the right thing on CPU hotplug, so that we don't use stale entropy or fail to accumulate new entropy when CPUs come back online. - We handle virtual machines that fork / clone / snapshot, using the "vmgenid" ACPI specification for retrieving a unique new RNG seed, which we can use to also make WireGuard (and in the future, other things) safe across VM forks. - Around boot time, we now try to reseed more often if enough entropy is available, before settling on the usual 5 minute schedule. - Last, but certainly not least, the documentation in the file has been updated considerably" * tag 'random-5.18-rc1-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/crng/random: (60 commits) random: check for signal and try earlier when generating entropy random: reseed more often immediately after booting random: make consistent usage of crng_ready() random: use SipHash as interrupt entropy accumulator wireguard: device: clear keys on VM fork random: provide notifier for VM fork random: replace custom notifier chain with standard one random: do not export add_vmfork_randomness() unless needed virt: vmgenid: notify RNG of VM fork and supply generation ID ACPI: allow longer device IDs random: add mechanism for VM forks to reinitialize crng random: don't let 644 read-only sysctls be written to random: give sysctl_random_min_urandom_seed a more sensible value random: block in /dev/urandom random: do crng pre-init loading in worker rather than irq random: unify cycles_t and jiffies usage and types random: cleanup UUID handling random: only wake up writers after zap if threshold was passed random: round-robin registers as ulong, not u32 random: clear fast pool, crng, and batches in cpuhp bring up ...

Add ftrace_boot_snapshot kernel parameter that will take a snapshot at the end of boot up just before switching over to user space (it happens during the kernel freeing of init memory). This is useful when there's interesting data that can be collected from kernel start up, but gets overridden by user space start up code. With this option, the ring buffer content from the boot up traces gets saved in the snapshot at the end of boot up.

2022-02-24docs: *-regressions.rst: explain how quickly issues should be handledThorsten Leemhuis1-0/+12
Add a section with a few rules of thumb about how quickly developers should address regressions to Documentation/process/handling-regressions.rst; additionally, add a short paragraph about this to the companion document Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-regressions.rst as well. The rules of thumb were written after studying the quotes from Linus found in handling-regressions.rst and especially influenced by statements like "Users are literally the _only_ thing that matters" and "without users, your program is not a program, it's a pointless piece of code that you might as well throw away". The author interpreted those in perspective to how the various Linux kernel series are maintained currently and what those practices might mean for users running into a regression on a small or big kernel update. That for example lead to the paragraph starting with "Aim to get fixes for regressions mainlined within one week after identifying the culprit, if the regression was introduced in a stable/longterm release or the devel cycle for the latest mainline release". Some might see this as pretty high bar, but on the other hand something like that is needed to not leave users out in the cold for too long -- which can quickly happen when updating to the latest stable series, as the previous one is normally stamped "End of Life" about three or four weeks after a new mainline release. This makes a lot of users switch during this timeframe. Any of them thus risk running into regressions not promptly fixed; even worse, once the previous stable series is EOLed for real, users that face a regression might be left with only three options: (1) continue running an outdated and thus potentially insecure kernel version from an abandoned stable series (2) run the kernel with the regression (3) downgrade to an earlier longterm series still supported This is better avoided, as (1) puts users and their data in danger, (2) will only be possible if it's a minor regression that doesn't interfere with booting or serious usage, and (3) might be regression itself or impossible on the particular machine, as the users might require drivers or features only introduced after the latest longterm series branched of. In the end this lead to the aforementioned "Aim to fix regression within one week" part. It's also the reason for the "Try to resolve any regressions introduced in the current development cycle before its end.".
