kzalloc is a memory allocation function which can return NULL when some internal memory errors happen. It is safer to add null pointer check.

Pull ptrace cleanups from Eric Biederman: "This set of changes removes tracehook.h, moves modification of all of the ptrace fields inside of siglock to remove races, adds a missing permission check to ptrace.c The removal of tracehook.h is quite significant as it has been a major source of confusion in recent years. Much of that confusion was around task_work and TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL (which I have now decoupled making the semantics clearer). For people who don't know tracehook.h is a vestiage of an attempt to implement uprobes like functionality that was never fully merged, and was later superseeded by uprobes when uprobes was merged. For many years now we have been removing what tracehook functionaly a little bit at a time.

2022-03-23proc/vmcore: fix possible deadlock on concurrent mmap and readDavid Hildenbrand1-19/+22
Lockdep noticed that there is chance for a deadlock if we have concurrent mmap, concurrent read, and the addition/removal of a callback. As nicely explained by Boqun: "Lockdep warned about the above sequences because rw_semaphore is a fair read-write lock, and the following can cause a deadlock: TASK 1 TASK 2 TASK 3 ====== ====== ====== down_write(mmap_lock); down_read(vmcore_cb_rwsem) down_write(vmcore_cb_rwsem); // blocked down_read(vmcore_cb_rwsem); // cannot get the lock because of the fairness down_read(mmap_lock); // blocked IOW, a reader can block another read if there is a writer queued by the second reader and the lock is fair" To fix this, convert to srcu to make this deadlock impossible. We need srcu as our callbacks can sleep. With this change, I cannot trigger any lockdep warnings. ====================================================== WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected 5.17.0-0.rc0.20220117git0c947b893d69.68.test.fc36.x86_64 #1 Not tainted ------------------------------------------------------ makedumpfile/542 is trying to acquire lock: ffffffff832d2eb8 (vmcore_cb_rwsem){.+.+}-{3:3}, at: mmap_vmcore+0x340/0x580 but task is already holding lock: ffff8880af226438 (&mm->mmap_lock#2){++++}-{3:3}, at: vm_mmap_pgoff+0x84/0x150 which lock already depends on the new lock. the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is: -> #1 (&mm->mmap_lock#2){++++}-{3:3}: lock_acquire+0xc3/0x1a0 __might_fault+0x4e/0x70 _copy_to_user+0x1f/0x90 __copy_oldmem_page+0x72/0xc0 read_from_oldmem+0x77/0x1e0 read_vmcore+0x2c2/0x310 proc_reg_read+0x47/0xa0 vfs_read+0x101/0x340 __x64_sys_pread64+0x5d/0xa0 do_syscall_64+0x43/0x90 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xae -> #0 (vmcore_cb_rwsem){.+.+}-{3:3}: validate_chain+0x9f4/0x2670 __lock_acquire+0x8f7/0xbc0 lock_acquire+0xc3/0x1a0 down_read+0x4a/0x140 mmap_vmcore+0x340/0x580 proc_reg_mmap+0x3e/0x90 mmap_region+0x504/0x880 do_mmap+0x38a/0x520 vm_mmap_pgoff+0xc1/0x150 ksys_mmap_pgoff+0x178/0x200 do_syscall_64+0x43/0x90 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xae other info that might help us debug this: Possible unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- lock(&mm->mmap_lock#2); lock(vmcore_cb_rwsem); lock(&mm->mmap_lock#2); lock(vmcore_cb_rwsem); *** DEADLOCK *** 1 lock held by makedumpfile/542: #0: ffff8880af226438 (&mm->mmap_lock#2){++++}-{3:3}, at: vm_mmap_pgoff+0x84/0x150 stack backtrace: CPU: 0 PID: 542 Comm: makedumpfile Not tainted 5.17.0-0.rc0.20220117git0c947b893d69.68.test.fc36.x86_64 #1 Hardware name: Red Hat KVM, BIOS 0.5.1 01/01/2011 Call Trace: __lock_acquire+0x8f7/0xbc0 lock_acquire+0xc3/0x1a0 down_read+0x4a/0x140 mmap_vmcore+0x340/0x580 proc_reg_mmap+0x3e/0x90 mmap_region+0x504/0x880 do_mmap+0x38a/0x520 vm_mmap_pgoff+0xc1/0x150 ksys_mmap_pgoff+0x178/0x200 do_syscall_64+0x43/0x90 Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220119193417.100385-1-david@redhat.com Fixes: cc5f2704c934 ("proc/vmcore: convert oldmem_pfn_is_ram callback to more generic vmcore callbacks") Signed-off-by: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com> Reported-by: Baoquan He <bhe@redhat.com> Acked-by: Baoquan He <bhe@redhat.com> Cc: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Cc: Dave Young <dyoung@redhat.com> Cc: "Paul E.

It's not a standard approach that use __get_free_page() to alloc path buffer directly. We'd better use kmalloc and PATH_MAX. PAGE_SIZE is different on different archs.

MADV_FREE may split THPs if it is called for partial THP. It may trigger the below race: CPU A CPU B ----- ----- smaps walk: MADV_FREE: page_mapcount() PageCompound() split_huge_page() page = compound_head(page) PageDoubleMap(page) When calling PageDoubleMap() this page is not a tail page of THP anymore so the BUG is triggered. This could be fixed by elevated refcount of the page before calling mapcount, but that would prevent it from counting migration entries, and it seems overkilling because the race just could happen when PMD is split so all PTE entries of tail pages are actually migration entries, and smaps_account() does treat migration entries as mapcount == 1 as Kirill pointed out. Add a new parameter for smaps_account() to tell this entry is migration entry then skip calling page_mapcount(). Don't skip getting mapcount for device private entries since they do track references with mapcount. Pagemap also has the similar issue although it was not reported. Fixed it as well.

2022-01-22fs: proc: store PDE()->data into inode->i_privateMuchun Song3-11/+1
PDE_DATA(inode) is introduced to get user private data and hide the layout of struct proc_dir_entry. The inode->i_private is used to do the same thing as well. Save a copy of user private data to inode-> i_private when proc inode is allocated. This means the user also can get their private data by inode->i_private.

2022-01-22sysctl: add and use base directory declarer and registration helperLuis Chamberlain1-0/+9
Patch series "sysctl: add and use base directory declarer and registration helper". In this patch series we start addressing base directories, and so we start with the "fs" sysctls. The end goal is we end up completely moving all "fs" sysctl knobs out from kernel/sysctl. This patch (of 6): Add a set of helpers which can be used to declare and register base directory sysctls on their own. We do this so we can later move each of the base sysctl directories like "fs", "kernel", etc, to their own respective files instead of shoving the declarations and registrations all on kernel/sysctl.c. The lazy approach has caught up and with this, we just end up extending the list of base directories / sysctls on one file and this makes maintenance difficult due to merge conflicts from many developers. The declarations are used first by kernel/sysctl.c for registration its own base which over time we'll try to clean up. It will be used in the next patch to demonstrate how to cleanly deal with base sysctl directories.

2022-01-22sysctl: add a new register_sysctl_init() interfaceXiaoming Ni1-0/+33
Patch series "sysctl: first set of kernel/sysctl cleanups", v2. Finally had time to respin the series of the work we had started last year on cleaning up the kernel/sysct.c kitchen sink. People keeps stuffing their sysctls in that file and this creates a maintenance burden. So this effort is aimed at placing sysctls where they actually belong. I'm going to split patches up into series as there is quite a bit of work. This first set adds register_sysctl_init() for uses of registerting a sysctl on the init path, adds const where missing to a few places, generalizes common values so to be more easy to share, and starts the move of a few kernel/sysctl.c out where they belong. The majority of rework on v2 in this first patch set is 0-day fixes. Eric Biederman's feedback is later addressed in subsequent patch sets. I'll only post the first two patch sets for now. We can address the rest once the first two patch sets get completely reviewed / Acked. This patch (of 9): The kernel/sysctl.c is a kitchen sink where everyone leaves their dirty dishes, this makes it very difficult to maintain. To help with this maintenance let's start by moving sysctls to places where they actually belong. The proc sysctl maintainers do not want to know what sysctl knobs you wish to add for your own piece of code, we just care about the core logic. Today though folks heavily rely on tables on kernel/sysctl.c so they can easily just extend this table with their needed sysctls. In order to help users move their sysctls out we need to provide a helper which can be used during code initialization. We special-case the initialization use of register_sysctl() since it *is* safe to fail, given all that sysctls do is provide a dynamic interface to query or modify at runtime an existing variable. So the use case of register_sysctl() on init should *not* stop if the sysctls don't end up getting registered. It would be counter productive to stop boot if a simple sysctl registration failed. Provide a helper for init then, and document the recommended init levels to use for callers of this routine. We will later use this in subsequent patches to start slimming down kernel/sysctl.c tables and moving sysctl registration to the code which actually needs these sysctls.

2022-01-20kthread: dynamically allocate memory to store kthread's full nameYafang Shao1-0/+3
When I was implementing a new per-cpu kthread cfs_migration, I found the comm of it "cfs_migration/%u" is truncated due to the limitation of TASK_COMM_LEN. For example, the comm of the percpu thread on CPU10~19 all have the same name "cfs_migration/1", which will confuse the user. This issue is not critical, because we can get the corresponding CPU from the task's Cpus_allowed. But for kthreads corresponding to other hardware devices, it is not easy to get the detailed device info from task comm, for example, jbd2/nvme0n1p2- xfs-reclaim/sdf Currently there are so many truncated kthreads: rcu_tasks_kthre rcu_tasks_rude_ rcu_tasks_trace poll_mpt3sas0_s ext4-rsv-conver xfs-reclaim/sd{a, b, c, ...} xfs-blockgc/sd{a, b, c, ...} xfs-inodegc/sd{a, b, c, ...} audit_send_repl ecryptfs-kthrea vfio-irqfd-clea jbd2/nvme0n1p2- ... We can shorten these names to work around this problem, but it may be not applied to all of the truncated kthreads. Take 'jbd2/nvme0n1p2-' for example, it is a nice name, and it is not a good idea to shorten it. One possible way to fix this issue is extending the task comm size, but as task->comm is used in lots of places, that may cause some potential buffer overflows. Another more conservative approach is introducing a new pointer to store kthread's full name if it is truncated, which won't introduce too much overhead as it is in the non-critical path. Finally we make a dicision to use the second approach. See also the discussions in this thread: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20211101060419.4682-1-laoar.shao@gmail.com/ After this change, the full name of these truncated kthreads will be displayed via /proc/[pid]/comm: rcu_tasks_kthread rcu_tasks_rude_kthread rcu_tasks_trace_kthread poll_mpt3sas0_statu ext4-rsv-conversion xfs-reclaim/sdf1 xfs-blockgc/sdf1 xfs-inodegc/sdf1 audit_send_reply ecryptfs-kthread vfio-irqfd-cleanup jbd2/nvme0n1p2-8 Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20211120112850.46047-1-laoar.shao@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Yafang Shao <laoar.shao@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Petr Mladek <pmladek@suse.com> Suggested-by: Petr Mladek <pmladek@suse.com> Suggested-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <arnaldo.melo@gmail.com> Cc: Alexei Starovoitov <alexei.starovoitov@gmail.com> Cc: Andrii Nakryiko <andrii.nakryiko@gmail.com> Cc: Michal Miroslaw <mirq-linux@rere.qmqm.pl> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Matthew Wilcox <willy@infradead.org> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2022-01-20proc/vmcore: don't fake reading zeroes on surprise vmcore_cb unregistrationDavid Hildenbrand1-8/+2
In commit cc5f2704c934 ("proc/vmcore: convert oldmem_pfn_is_ram callback to more generic vmcore callbacks"), we added detection of surprise vmcore_cb unregistration after the vmcore was already opened. Once detected, we warn the user and simulate reading zeroes from that point on when accessing the vmcore. The basic reason was that unexpected unregistration, for example, by manually unbinding a driver from a device after opening the vmcore, is not supported and could result in reading oldmem the vmcore_cb would have actually prohibited while registered. However, something like that can similarly be trigger by a user that's really looking for trouble simply by unbinding the relevant driver before opening the vmcore -- or by disallowing loading the driver in the first place. So it's actually of limited help. Currently, unregistration can only be triggered via virtio-mem when manually unbinding the driver from the device inside the VM; there is no way to trigger it from the hypervisor, as hypervisors don't allow for unplugging virtio-mem devices -- ripping out system RAM from a VM without coordination with the guest is usually not a good idea. The important part is that unbinding the driver and unregistering the vmcore_cb while concurrently reading the vmcore won't crash the system, and that is handled by the rwsem. To make the mechanism more future proof, let's remove the "read zero" part, but leave the warning in place. For example, we could have a future driver (like virtio-balloon) that will contact the hypervisor to figure out if we already populated a page for a given PFN. Hotunplugging such a device and consequently unregistering the vmcore_cb could be triggered from the hypervisor without harming the system even while kdump is running. In that case, we don't want to silently end up with a vmcore that contains wrong data, because the user inside the VM might be unaware of the hypervisor action and might easily miss the warning in the log.

Pull signal/exit/ptrace updates from Eric Biederman: "This set of changes deletes some dead code, makes a lot of cleanups which hopefully make the code easier to follow, and fixes bugs found along the way. The end-game which I have not yet reached yet is for fatal signals that generate coredumps to be short-circuit deliverable from complete_signal, for force_siginfo_to_task not to require changing userspace configured signal delivery state, and for the ptrace stops to always happen in locations where we can guarantee on all architectures that the all of the registers are saved and available on the stack. Removal of profile_task_ext, profile_munmap, and profile_handoff_task are the big successes for dead code removal this round. A bunch of small bug fixes are included, as most of the issues reported were small enough that they would not affect bisection so I simply added the fixes and did not fold the fixes into the changes they were fixing. There was a bug that broke coredumps piped to systemd-coredump. I dropped the change that caused that bug and replaced it entirely with something much more restrained. Unfortunately that required some rebasing. Some successes after this set of changes: There are few enough calls to do_exit to audit in a reasonable amount of time. The lifetime of struct kthread now matches the lifetime of struct task, and the pointer to struct kthread is no longer stored in set_child_tid. The flag SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP is removed. The field group_exit_task is removed. Issues where task->exit_code was examined with signal->group_exit_code should been examined were fixed.

2022-01-15mm: add a field to store names for private anonymous memoryColin Cross1-1/+11
In many userspace applications, and especially in VM based applications like Android uses heavily, there are multiple different allocators in use. At a minimum there is libc malloc and the stack, and in many cases there are libc malloc, the stack, direct syscalls to mmap anonymous memory, and multiple VM heaps (one for small objects, one for big objects, etc.). Each of these layers usually has its own tools to inspect its usage; malloc by compiling a debug version, the VM through heap inspection tools, and for direct syscalls there is usually no way to track them. On Android we heavily use a set of tools that use an extended version of the logic covered in Documentation/vm/pagemap.txt to walk all pages mapped in userspace and slice their usage by process, shared (COW) vs. unique mappings, backing, etc. This can account for real physical memory usage even in cases like fork without exec (which Android uses heavily to share as many private COW pages as possible between processes), Kernel SamePage Merging, and clean zero pages. It produces a measurement of the pages that only exist in that process (USS, for unique), and a measurement of the physical memory usage of that process with the cost of shared pages being evenly split between processes that share them (PSS). If all anonymous memory is indistinguishable then figuring out the real physical memory usage (PSS) of each heap requires either a pagemap walking tool that can understand the heap debugging of every layer, or for every layer's heap debugging tools to implement the pagemap walking logic, in which case it is hard to get a consistent view of memory across the whole system. Tracking the information in userspace leads to all sorts of problems. It either needs to be stored inside the process, which means every process has to have an API to export its current heap information upon request, or it has to be stored externally in a filesystem that somebody needs to clean up on crashes. It needs to be readable while the process is still running, so it has to have some sort of synchronization with every layer of userspace. Efficiently tracking the ranges requires reimplementing something like the kernel vma trees, and linking to it from every layer of userspace. It requires more memory, more syscalls, more runtime cost, and more complexity to separately track regions that the kernel is already tracking. This patch adds a field to /proc/pid/maps and /proc/pid/smaps to show a userspace-provided name for anonymous vmas. The names of named anonymous vmas are shown in /proc/pid/maps and /proc/pid/smaps as [anon:<name>]. Userspace can set the name for a region of memory by calling prctl(PR_SET_VMA, PR_SET_VMA_ANON_NAME, start, len, (unsigned long)name) Setting the name to NULL clears it. The name length limit is 80 bytes including NUL-terminator and is checked to contain only printable ascii characters (including space), except '[',']','\','$' and '`'. Ascii strings are being used to have a descriptive identifiers for vmas, which can be understood by the users reading /proc/pid/maps or /proc/pid/smaps. Names can be standardized for a given system and they can include some variable parts such as the name of the allocator or a library, tid of the thread using it, etc. The name is stored in a pointer in the shared union in vm_area_struct that points to a null terminated string. Anonymous vmas with the same name (equivalent strings) and are otherwise mergeable will be merged. The name pointers are not shared between vmas even if they contain the same name. The name pointer is stored in a union with fields that are only used on file-backed mappings, so it does not increase memory usage. CONFIG_ANON_VMA_NAME kernel configuration is introduced to enable this feature. It keeps the feature disabled by default to prevent any additional memory overhead and to avoid confusing procfs parsers on systems which are not ready to support named anonymous vmas. The patch is based on the original patch developed by Colin Cross, more specifically on its latest version [1] posted upstream by Sumit Semwal. It used a userspace pointer to store vma names. In that design, name pointers could be shared between vmas. However during the last upstreaming attempt, Kees Cook raised concerns [2] about this approach and suggested to copy the name into kernel memory space, perform validity checks [3] and store as a string referenced from vm_area_struct. One big concern is about fork() performance which would need to strdup anonymous vma names. Dave Hansen suggested experimenting with worst-case scenario of forking a process with 64k vmas having longest possible names [4]. I ran this experiment on an ARM64 Android device and recorded a worst-case regression of almost 40% when forking such a process. This regression is addressed in the followup patch which replaces the pointer to a name with a refcounted structure that allows sharing the name pointer between vmas of the same name. Instead of duplicating the string during fork() or when splitting a vma it increments the refcount.

Currently, arg2 must be one of: PR_SET_VMA_ANON_NAME Set a name for anonymous virtual memory areas. arg5 should be a pointer to a null-terminated string containing the name. The name length including null byte cannot exceed 80 bytes. If arg5 is NULL, the name of the appropriate anonymous virtual memory areas will be reset.

2021-11-09proc: allow pid_revalidate() during LOOKUP_RCUStephen Brennan1-8/+10
Problem Description: When running running ~128 parallel instances of TZ=/etc/localtime ps -fe >/dev/null on a 128CPU machine, the %sys utilization reaches 97%, and perf shows the following code path as being responsible for heavy contention on the d_lockref spinlock: walk_component() lookup_fast() d_revalidate() pid_revalidate() // returns -ECHILD unlazy_child() lockref_get_not_dead(&nd->path.dentry->d_lockref) <-- contention The reason is that pid_revalidate() is triggering a drop from RCU to ref path walk mode. All concurrent path lookups thus try to grab a reference to the dentry for /proc/, before re-executing pid_revalidate() and then stepping into the /proc/$pid directory. Thus there is huge spinlock contention. This patch allows pid_revalidate() to execute in RCU mode, meaning that the path lookup can successfully enter the /proc/$pid directory while still in RCU mode. Later on, the path lookup may still drop into ref mode, but the contention will be much reduced at this point. By applying this patch, %sys utilization falls to around 85% under the same workload, and the number of ps processes executed per unit time increases by 3x-4x. Although this particular workload is a bit contrived, we have seen some large collections of eager monitoring scripts which produced similarly high %sys time due to contention in the /proc directory. As a result this patch, Al noted that several procfs methods which were only called in ref-walk mode could now be called from RCU mode. To ensure that this patch is safe, I audited all the inode get_link and permission() implementations, as well as dentry d_revalidate() implementations, in fs/proc. The purpose here is to ensure that they either are safe to call in RCU (i.e. don't sleep) or correctly bail out of RCU mode if they don't support it. My analysis shows that all at-risk procfs methods are safe to call under RCU, and thus this patch is safe. Procfs RCU-walk Analysis: This analysis is up-to-date with 5.15-rc3. When called under RCU mode, these functions have arguments as follows: * get_link() receives a NULL dentry pointer when called in RCU mode. * permission() receives MAY_NOT_BLOCK in the mode parameter when called from RCU. * d_revalidate() receives LOOKUP_RCU in flags. For the following functions, either they are trivially RCU safe, or they explicitly bail at the beginning of the function when they run: proc_ns_get_link (bails out) proc_get_link (RCU safe) proc_pid_get_link (bails out) map_files_d_revalidate (bails out) map_misc_d_revalidate (bails out) proc_net_d_revalidate (RCU safe) proc_sys_revalidate (bails out, also not under /proc/$pid) tid_fd_revalidate (bails out) proc_sys_permission (not under /proc/$pid) The remainder of the functions require a bit more detail: * proc_fd_permission: RCU safe. All of the body of this function is under rcu_read_lock(), except generic_permission() which declares itself RCU safe in its documentation string. * proc_self_get_link uses GFP_ATOMIC in the RCU case, so it is RCU aware and otherwise looks safe. The same is true of proc_thread_self_get_link. * proc_map_files_get_link: calls ns_capable, which calls capable(), and thus calls into the audit code (see note #1 below). The remainder is just a call to the trivially safe proc_pid_get_link(). * proc_pid_permission: calls ptrace_may_access(), which appears RCU safe, although it does call into the "security_ptrace_access_check()" hook, which looks safe under smack and selinux. Just the audit code is of concern. Also uses get_task_struct() and put_task_struct(), see note #2 below. * proc_tid_comm_permission: Appears safe, though calls put_task_struct (see note #2 below). Note #1: Most of the concern of RCU safety has centered around the audit code. However, since b17ec22fb339 ("selinux: slow_avc_audit has become non-blocking"), it's safe to call this code under RCU. So all of the above are safe by my estimation. Note #2: get_task_struct() and put_task_struct(): The majority of get_task_struct() is under RCU read lock, and in any case it is a simple increment. But put_task_struct() is complex, given that it could at some point free the task struct, and this process has many steps which I couldn't manually verify. However, several other places call put_task_struct() under RCU, so it appears safe to use here too (see kernel/hung_task.c:165 or rcu/tree-stall.h:296) Patch description: pid_revalidate() drops from RCU into REF lookup mode. When many threads are resolving paths within /proc in parallel, this can result in heavy spinlock contention on d_lockref as each thread tries to grab a reference to the /proc dentry (and drop it shortly thereafter). Investigation indicates that it is not necessary to drop RCU in pid_revalidate(), as no RCU data is modified and the function never sleeps. So, remove the LOOKUP_RCU check.

2021-11-09proc/vmcore: convert oldmem_pfn_is_ram callback to more generic vmcore callbacksDavid Hildenbrand1-30/+69
Let's support multiple registered callbacks, making sure that registering vmcore callbacks cannot fail. Make the callback return a bool instead of an int, handling how to deal with errors internally. Drop unused HAVE_OLDMEM_PFN_IS_RAM. We soon want to make use of this infrastructure from other drivers: virtio-mem, registering one callback for each virtio-mem device, to prevent reading unplugged virtio-mem memory. Handle it via a generic vmcore_cb structure, prepared for future extensions: for example, once we support virtio-mem on s390x where the vmcore is completely constructed in the second kernel, we want to detect and add plugged virtio-mem memory ranges to the vmcore in order for them to get dumped properly. Handle corner cases that are unexpected and shouldn't happen in sane setups: registering a callback after the vmcore has already been opened (warn only) and unregistering a callback after the vmcore has already been opened (warn and essentially read only zeroes from that point on).

2021-11-06mm/smaps: simplify shmem handling of pte holesPeter Xu1-10/+12
Firstly, check_shmem_swap variable is actually not necessary, because it's always set with pte_hole hook; checking each would work. Meanwhile, the check within smaps_pte_entry is not easy to follow. E.g., pte_none() check is not needed as "!pte_present && !is_swap_pte" is the same. Since at it, use the pte_hole() helper rather than dup the page cache lookup. Still keep the CONFIG_SHMEM part so the code can be optimized to nop for !SHMEM. There will be a very slight functional change in smaps_pte_entry(), that for !SHMEM we'll return early for pte_none (before checking page==NULL), but that's even nicer.

2021-11-06mm/smaps: fix shmem pte hole swap calculationPeter Xu1-2/+4
Patch series "mm/smaps: Fixes and optimizations on shmem swap handling". This patch (of 3): The shmem swap calculation on the privately writable mappings are using wrong parameters as spotted by Vlastimil. Fix them. This was introduced in commit 48131e03ca4e ("mm, proc: reduce cost of /proc/pid/smaps for unpopulated shmem mappings"), when shmem_swap_usage was reworked to shmem_partial_swap_usage. Test program: void main(void) { char *buffer, *p; int i, fd; fd = memfd_create("test", 0); assert(fd > 0); /* isize==2M*3, fill in pages, swap them out */ ftruncate(fd, SIZE_2M * 3); buffer = mmap(NULL, SIZE_2M * 3, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0); assert(buffer); for (i = 0, p = buffer; i < SIZE_2M * 3 / 4096; i++) { *p = 1; p += 4096; } madvise(buffer, SIZE_2M * 3, MADV_PAGEOUT); munmap(buffer, SIZE_2M * 3); /* * Remap with private+writtable mappings on partial of the inode (<= 2M*3), * while the size must also be >= 2M*2 to make sure there's a none pmd so * smaps_pte_hole will be triggered. */ buffer = mmap(NULL, SIZE_2M * 2, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE, fd, 0); printf("pid=%d, buffer=%p\n", getpid(), buffer); /* Check /proc/$PID/smap_rollup, should see 4MB swap */ sleep(1000000); } Before the patch, smaps_rollup shows <4MB swap and the number will be random depending on the alignment of the buffer of mmap() allocated. After this patch, it'll show 4MB.

Pull per signal_struct coredumps from Eric Biederman: "Current coredumps are mixed up with the exit code, the signal handling code, and the ptrace code making coredumps much more complicated than necessary and difficult to follow. This series of changes starts with ptrace_stop and cleans it up, making it easier to follow what is happening in ptrace_stop. Then cleans up the exec interactions with coredumps. Then cleans up the coredump interactions with exit. Finally the coredump interactions with the signal handling code is cleaned up. The first and last changes are bug fixes for minor bugs. I believe the fact that vfork followed by execve can kill the process the called vfork if exec fails is sufficient justification to change the userspace visible behavior. In previous discussions some of these changes were organized differently and individually appeared to make the code base worse. As currently written I believe they all stand on their own as cleanups and bug fixes. Which means that even if the worst should happen and the last change needs to be reverted for some unimaginable reason, the code base will still be improved. If the worst does not happen there are a more cleanups that can be made. Signals that generate coredumps can easily become eligible for short circuit delivery in complete_signal. The entire rendezvous for generating a coredump can move into get_signal. The function force_sig_info_to_task be written in a way that does not modify the signal handling state of the target task (because coredumps are eligible for short circuit delivery). Many of these future cleanups can be done another way but nothing so cleanly as if coredumps become per signal_struct" * 'per_signal_struct_coredumps-for-v5.16' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace: coredump: Limit coredumps to a single thread group coredump: Don't perform any cleanups before dumping core exit: Factor coredump_exit_mm out of exit_mm exec: Check for a pending fatal signal instead of core_state ptrace: Remove the unnecessary arguments from arch_ptrace_stop signal: Remove the bogus sigkill_pending in ptrace_stop

2021-10-08coredump: Limit coredumps to a single thread groupEric W. Biederman1-3/+3
Today when a signal is delivered with a handler of SIG_DFL whose default behavior is to generate a core dump not only that process but every process that shares the mm is killed. In the case of vfork this looks like a real world problem. Consider the following well defined sequence. if (vfork() == 0) { execve(...); _exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } If a signal that generates a core dump is received after vfork but before the execve changes the mm the process that called vfork will also be killed (as the mm is shared). Similarly if the execve fails after the point of no return the kernel delivers SIGSEGV which will kill both the exec'ing process and because the mm is shared the process that called vfork as well. As far as I can tell this behavior is a violation of people's reasonable expectations, POSIX, and is unnecessarily fragile when the system is low on memory. Solve this by making a userspace visible change to only kill a single process/thread group. This is possible because Jann Horn recently modified[1] the coredump code so that the mm can safely be modified while the coredump is happening. With LinuxThreads long gone I don't expect anyone to have a notice this behavior change in practice. To accomplish this move the core_state pointer from mm_struct to signal_struct, which allows different thread groups to coredump simultatenously. In zap_threads remove the work to kill anything except for the current thread group. v2: Remove core_state from the VM_BUG_ON_MM print to fix compile failure when CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is enabled.

/proc/uptime reports idle time by reading the CPUTIME_IDLE field from the per-cpu kcpustats. However, on NO_HZ systems, idle time is not continually updated on idle cpus, leading this value to appear incorrectly small. /proc/stat performs an accounting update when reading idle time; we can use the same approach for uptime. With this patch, /proc/stat and /proc/uptime now agree on idle time.
