2018-08-25mm/cow: don't bother write protecting already write-protected pagesLinus Torvalds1-1/+1
This is not normally noticeable, but repeated forks are unnecessarily expensive because they repeatedly dirty the parent page tables during the page table copy operation. It's trivial to just avoid write protecting the page table entry if it was already not writable. This patch was inspired by https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=200447 which points to an ancient "waste time re-doing fork" issue in the presence of lots of signals. That bug was fixed by Eric Biederman's signal handling series culminating in commit c3ad2c3b02e9 ("signal: Don't restart fork when signals come in"), but the unnecessary work for repeated forks is still work just fixing, particularly since the fix is trivial.

2018-08-24iommu/rockchip: Move irq request past pm_runtime_enableMarc Zyngier1-11/+13
Enabling the interrupt early, before power has been applied to the device, can result in an interrupt being delivered too early if: - the IOMMU shares an interrupt with a VOP - the VOP has a pending interrupt (after a kexec, for example) In these conditions, we end-up taking the interrupt without the IOMMU being ready to handle the interrupt (not powered on). Moving the interrupt request past the pm_runtime_enable() call makes sure we can at least access the IOMMU registers. Note that this is only a partial fix, and that the VOP interrupt will still be screaming until the VOP driver kicks in, which advocates for a more synchronized interrupt enabling/disabling approach.

pm_runtime_get_if_in_use can fail: either PM has been disabled altogether (-EINVAL), or the device hasn't been enabled yet (0). Sadly, the Rockchip IOMMU driver tends to conflate the two things by considering a non-zero return value as successful. This has the consequence of hiding other bugs, so let's handle this case throughout the driver, with a WARN_ON_ONCE so that we can try and work out what happened.

2018-08-23mm/util: make strndup_user description a kernel-doc commentMike Rapoport1-1/+1
Patch series "memory management documentation updates", v3. Here are several updates to the mm documentation. Aside from really minor changes in the first three patches, the updates are: * move the documentation of kstrdup and friends to "String Manipulation" section * split memory management API into a separate .rst file * adjust formating of the GFP flags description and include it in the reference documentation. This patch (of 7): The description of the strndup_user function misses '*' character at the beginning of the comment to be proper kernel-doc. Add the missing character.

Use new return type vm_fault_t for fault handler in struct vm_operations_struct. For now, this is just documenting that the function returns a VM_FAULT value rather than an errno. Once all instances are converted, vm_fault_t will become a distinct type. See 1c8f422059ae ("mm: change return type to vm_fault_t") for reference.

2018-08-23mm: soft-offline: close the race against page allocationNaoya Horiguchi5-16/+57
A process can be killed with SIGBUS(BUS_MCEERR_AR) when it tries to allocate a page that was just freed on the way of soft-offline. This is undesirable because soft-offline (which is about corrected error) is less aggressive than hard-offline (which is about uncorrected error), and we can make soft-offline fail and keep using the page for good reason like "system is busy." Two main changes of this patch are: - setting migrate type of the target page to MIGRATE_ISOLATE. As done in free_unref_page_commit(), this makes kernel bypass pcplist when freeing the page. So we can assume that the page is in freelist just after put_page() returns, - setting PG_hwpoison on free page under zone->lock which protects freelists, so this allows us to avoid setting PG_hwpoison on a page that is decided to be allocated soon.

2018-08-23mm: fix race on soft-offlining free huge pagesNaoya Horiguchi3-14/+21
Patch series "mm: soft-offline: fix race against page allocation". Xishi recently reported the issue about race on reusing the target pages of soft offlining. Discussion and analysis showed that we need make sure that setting PG_hwpoison should be done in the right place under zone->lock for soft offline. 1/2 handles free hugepage's case, and 2/2 hanldes free buddy page's case. This patch (of 2): There's a race condition between soft offline and hugetlb_fault which causes unexpected process killing and/or hugetlb allocation failure. The process killing is caused by the following flow: CPU 0 CPU 1 CPU 2 soft offline get_any_page // find the hugetlb is free mmap a hugetlb file page fault ... hugetlb_fault hugetlb_no_page alloc_huge_page // succeed soft_offline_free_page // set hwpoison flag mmap the hugetlb file page fault ... hugetlb_fault hugetlb_no_page find_lock_page return VM_FAULT_HWPOISON mm_fault_error do_sigbus // kill the process The hugetlb allocation failure comes from the following flow: CPU 0 CPU 1 mmap a hugetlb file // reserve all free page but don't fault-in soft offline get_any_page // find the hugetlb is free soft_offline_free_page // set hwpoison flag dissolve_free_huge_page // fail because all free hugepages are reserved page fault ... hugetlb_fault hugetlb_no_page alloc_huge_page ... dequeue_huge_page_node_exact // ignore hwpoisoned hugepage // and finally fail due to no-mem The root cause of this is that current soft-offline code is written based on an assumption that PageHWPoison flag should be set at first to avoid accessing the corrupted data. This makes sense for memory_failure() or hard offline, but does not for soft offline because soft offline is about corrected (not uncorrected) error and is safe from data lost. This patch changes soft offline semantics where it sets PageHWPoison flag only after containment of the error page completes successfully.

2018-08-23namei: allow restricted O_CREAT of FIFOs and regular filesSalvatore Mesoraca4-3/+106
Disallows open of FIFOs or regular files not owned by the user in world writable sticky directories, unless the owner is the same as that of the directory or the file is opened without the O_CREAT flag. The purpose is to make data spoofing attacks harder. This protection can be turned on and off separately for FIFOs and regular files via sysctl, just like the symlinks/hardlinks protection. This patch is based on Openwall's "HARDEN_FIFO" feature by Solar Designer. This is a brief list of old vulnerabilities that could have been prevented by this feature, some of them even allow for privilege escalation: CVE-2000-1134 CVE-2007-3852 CVE-2008-0525 CVE-2009-0416 CVE-2011-4834 CVE-2015-1838 CVE-2015-7442 CVE-2016-7489 This list is not meant to be complete. It's difficult to track down all vulnerabilities of this kind because they were often reported without any mention of this particular attack vector. In fact, before hardlinks/symlinks restrictions, fifos/regular files weren't the favorite vehicle to exploit them.
