2017-06-16networking: introduce and use skb_put_data()Johannes Berg1-1/+1
A common pattern with skb_put() is to just want to memcpy() some data into the new space, introduce skb_put_data() for this. An spatch similar to the one for skb_put_zero() converts many of the places using it: @@ identifier p, p2; expression len, skb, data; type t, t2; @@ ( -p = skb_put(skb, len); +p = skb_put_data(skb, data, len); | -p = (t)skb_put(skb, len); +p = skb_put_data(skb, data, len); ) ( p2 = (t2)p; -memcpy(p2, data, len); | -memcpy(p, data, len); ) @@ type t, t2; identifier p, p2; expression skb, data; @@ t *p; ... ( -p = skb_put(skb, sizeof(t)); +p = skb_put_data(skb, data, sizeof(t)); | -p = (t *)skb_put(skb, sizeof(t)); +p = skb_put_data(skb, data, sizeof(t)); ) ( p2 = (t2)p; -memcpy(p2, data, sizeof(*p)); | -memcpy(p, data, sizeof(*p)); ) @@ expression skb, len, data; @@ -memcpy(skb_put(skb, len), data, len); +skb_put_data(skb, data, len); (again, manually post-processed to retain some comments) Reviewed-by: Stephen Hemminger <stephen@networkplumber.org> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2017-06-14test_bpf: Add test to make conditional jump cross a large number of insns.David Daney1-0/+32
On MIPS, conditional branches can only span 32k instructions. To exceed this limit in the JIT with the BPF maximum of 4k insns, we need to choose eBPF insns that expand to more than 8 machine instructions. Use BPF_LD_ABS as it is quite complex. This forces the JIT to invert the sense of the branch to branch around a long jump to the end. This (somewhat) verifies that the branch inversion logic and target address calculation of the long jumps are done correctly.

2017-06-09x86, uaccess: introduce copy_from_iter_flushcache for pmem / cache-bypass operationsDan Williams2-0/+25
The pmem driver has a need to transfer data with a persistent memory destination and be able to rely on the fact that the destination writes are not cached. It is sufficient for the writes to be flushed to a cpu-store-buffer (non-temporal / "movnt" in x86 terms), as we expect userspace to call fsync() to ensure data-writes have reached a power-fail-safe zone in the platform. The fsync() triggers a REQ_FUA or REQ_FLUSH to the pmem driver which will turn around and fence previous writes with an "sfence". Implement a __copy_from_user_inatomic_flushcache, memcpy_page_flushcache, and memcpy_flushcache, that guarantee that the destination buffer is not dirty in the cpu cache on completion. The new copy_from_iter_flushcache and sub-routines will be used to replace the "pmem api" (include/linux/pmem.h + arch/x86/include/asm/pmem.h). The availability of copy_from_iter_flushcache() and memcpy_flushcache() are gated by the CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_UACCESS_FLUSHCACHE config symbol, and fallback to copy_from_iter_nocache() and plain memcpy() otherwise. This is meant to satisfy the concern from Linus that if a driver wants to do something beyond the normal nocache semantics it should be something private to that driver [1], and Al's concern that anything uaccess related belongs with the rest of the uaccess code [2]. The first consumer of this interface is a new 'copy_from_iter' dax operation so that pmem can inject cache maintenance operations without imposing this overhead on other dax-capable drivers.

The PROVE_RCU_REPEATEDLY Kconfig option was initially added due to the volume of messages from PROVE_RCU: Doing just one per boot would have required excessive numbers of boots to locate them all. However, PROVE_RCU messages are now relatively rare, so there is no longer any reason to need more than one such message per boot.

The effect of these parameters is to artificially slow down grace period initialization and cleanup in order to make some types of race conditions happen more often. This commit therefore simplifies Tree RCU a bit by removing the Kconfig options and adding the corresponding kernel parameters to rcutorture's .boot files instead. However, this commit also leaves out the kernel parameters for TREE02, TREE04, and TREE07 in order to have about the same number of tests slowed as not slowed. TREE01, TREE03, TREE05, and TREE06 are slowed, and the rest are not slowed. Reported-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
2017-06-08crypto: Work around deallocated stack frame reference gcc bug on sparc.David Miller1-2/+4
On sparc, if we have an alloca() like situation, as is the case with SHASH_DESC_ON_STACK(), we can end up referencing deallocated stack memory. The result can be that the value is clobbered if a trap or interrupt arrives at just the right instruction. It only occurs if the function ends returning a value from that alloca() area and that value can be placed into the return value register using a single instruction. For example, in lib/libcrc32c.c:crc32c() we end up with a return sequence like: return %i7+8 lduw [%o5+16], %o0 ! MEM[(u32 *)__shash_desc.1_10 + 16B], %o5 holds the base of the on-stack area allocated for the shash descriptor. But the return released the stack frame and the register window. So if an intererupt arrives between 'return' and 'lduw', then the value read at %o5+16 can be corrupted. Add a data compiler barrier to work around this problem. This is exactly what the gcc fix will end up doing as well, and it absolutely should not change the code generated for other cpus (unless gcc on them has the same bug :-) With crucial insight from Eric Sandeen.

2017-05-25kobject: support passing in variables for synthetic ueventsPeter Rajnoha1-13/+154
This patch makes it possible to pass additional arguments in addition to uevent action name when writing /sys/.../uevent attribute. These additional arguments are then inserted into generated synthetic uevent as additional environment variables. Before, we were not able to pass any additional uevent environment variables for synthetic uevents. This made it hard to identify such uevents properly in userspace to make proper distinction between genuine uevents originating from kernel and synthetic uevents triggered from userspace. Also, it was not possible to pass any additional information which would make it possible to optimize and change the way the synthetic uevents are processed back in userspace based on the originating environment of the triggering action in userspace. With the extra additional variables, we are able to pass through this extra information needed and also it makes it possible to synchronize with such synthetic uevents as they can be clearly identified back in userspace. The format for writing the uevent attribute is following: ACTION [UUID [KEY=VALUE ...] There's no change in how "ACTION" is recognized - it stays the same ("add", "change", "remove"). The "ACTION" is the only argument required to generate synthetic uevent, the rest of arguments, that this patch adds support for, are optional. The "UUID" is considered as transaction identifier so it's possible to use the same UUID value for one or more synthetic uevents in which case we logically group these uevents together for any userspace listeners. The "UUID" is expected to be in "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx" format where "x" is a hex digit. The value appears in uevent as "SYNTH_UUID=xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx" environment variable. The "KEY=VALUE" pairs can contain alphanumeric characters only. It's possible to define zero or more more pairs - each pair is then delimited by a space character " ". Each pair appears in synthetic uevents as "SYNTH_ARG_KEY=VALUE" environment variable. That means the KEY name gains "SYNTH_ARG_" prefix to avoid possible collisions with existing variables. To pass the "KEY=VALUE" pairs, it's also required to pass in the "UUID" part for the synthetic uevent first. If "UUID" is not passed in, the generated synthetic uevent gains "SYNTH_UUID=0" environment variable automatically so it's possible to identify this situation in userspace when reading generated uevent and so we can still make a difference between genuine and synthetic uevents.

2017-05-19printk: Use the main logbuf in NMI when logbuf_lock is availablePetr Mladek1-0/+3
The commit 42a0bb3f71383b457a7d ("printk/nmi: generic solution for safe printk in NMI") caused that printk stores messages into a temporary buffer in NMI context. The buffer is per-CPU and therefore the size is rather limited. It works quite well for NMI backtraces. But there are longer logs that might get printed in NMI context, for example, lockdep warnings, ftrace_dump_on_oops. The temporary buffer is used to avoid deadlocks caused by logbuf_lock. Also it is needed to avoid races with the other temporary buffer that is used when PRINTK_SAFE_CONTEXT is entered. But the main buffer can be used in NMI if the lock is available and we did not interrupt PRINTK_SAFE_CONTEXT. The lock is checked using raw_spin_is_locked(). It might cause false negatives when the lock is taken on another CPU and this CPU is in the safe context from other reasons. Note that the safe context is used also to get console semaphore or when calling console drivers. For this reason, we do the check in printk_nmi_enter(). It makes the handling consistent for the entire NMI handler and avoids reshuffling of the messages. The patch also defines special printk context that allows to use printk_deferred() in NMI. Note that we could not flush the messages to the consoles because console drivers might use many other internal locks. The newly created vprintk_deferred() disables the preemption only around the irq work handling. It is needed there to keep the consistency between the two per-CPU variables. But there is no reason to disable preemption around vprintk_emit(). Finally, the patch puts back explicit serialization of the NMI backtraces from different CPUs. It was removed by the commit a9edc88093287183ac934b ("x86/nmi: Perform a safe NMI stack trace on all CPUs"). It was not needed because the flushing of the temporary per-CPU buffers was serialized.

2017-05-16lib/raid6: Add log-of-2 table for RAID6 HW requiring disk positionAnup Patel1-0/+20
The raid6_gfexp table represents {2}^n values for 0 <= n < 256. The Linux async_tx framework pass values from raid6_gfexp as coefficients for each source to prep_dma_pq() callback of DMA channel with PQ capability. This creates problem for RAID6 offload engines (such as Broadcom SBA) which take disk position (i.e. log of {2}) instead of multiplicative cofficients from raid6_gfexp table. This patch adds raid6_gflog table having log-of-2 value for any given x such that 0 <= x < 256. For any given disk coefficient x, the corresponding disk position is given by raid6_gflog[x]. The RAID6 offload engine driver can use this newly added raid6_gflog table to get disk position from multiplicative coefficient.

2017-05-08treewide: use kv[mz]alloc* rather than opencoded variantsMichal Hocko1-4/+1
There are many code paths opencoding kvmalloc. Let's use the helper instead. The main difference to kvmalloc is that those users are usually not considering all the aspects of the memory allocator. E.g. allocation requests <= 32kB (with 4kB pages) are basically never failing and invoke OOM killer to satisfy the allocation. This sounds too disruptive for something that has a reasonable fallback - the vmalloc. On the other hand those requests might fallback to vmalloc even when the memory allocator would succeed after several more reclaim/compaction attempts previously. There is no guarantee something like that happens though. This patch converts many of those places to kv[mz]alloc* helpers because they are more conservative.

2017-05-08lib/rhashtable.c: simplify a strange allocation patternMichal Hocko1-10/+3
alloc_bucket_locks allocation pattern is quite unusual. We are preferring vmalloc when CONFIG_NUMA is enabled. The rationale is that vmalloc will respect the memory policy of the current process and so the backing memory will get distributed over multiple nodes if the requester is configured properly. At least that is the intention, in reality rhastable is shrunk and expanded from a kernel worker so no mempolicy can be assumed. Let's just simplify the code and use kvmalloc helper, which is a transparent way to use kmalloc with vmalloc fallback, if the caller is allowed to block and use the flag otherwise.

2017-05-03lockdep: allow to disable reclaim lockup detectionMichal Hocko1-0/+2
The current implementation of the reclaim lockup detection can lead to false positives and those even happen and usually lead to tweak the code to silence the lockdep by using GFP_NOFS even though the context can use __GFP_FS just fine. See http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20160512080321.GA18496@dastard as an example. ================================= [ INFO: inconsistent lock state ] 4.5.0-rc2+ #4 Tainted: G O --------------------------------- inconsistent {RECLAIM_FS-ON-R} -> {IN-RECLAIM_FS-W} usage. kswapd0/543 [HC0[0]:SC0[0]:HE1:SE1] takes: (&xfs_nondir_ilock_class){++++-+}, at: xfs_ilock+0x177/0x200 [xfs] {RECLAIM_FS-ON-R} state was registered at: mark_held_locks+0x79/0xa0 lockdep_trace_alloc+0xb3/0x100 kmem_cache_alloc+0x33/0x230 kmem_zone_alloc+0x81/0x120 [xfs] xfs_refcountbt_init_cursor+0x3e/0xa0 [xfs] __xfs_refcount_find_shared+0x75/0x580 [xfs] xfs_refcount_find_shared+0x84/0xb0 [xfs] xfs_getbmap+0x608/0x8c0 [xfs] xfs_vn_fiemap+0xab/0xc0 [xfs] do_vfs_ioctl+0x498/0x670 SyS_ioctl+0x79/0x90 entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x12/0x6f CPU0 ---- lock(&xfs_nondir_ilock_class); <Interrupt> lock(&xfs_nondir_ilock_class); *** DEADLOCK *** 3 locks held by kswapd0/543: stack backtrace: CPU: 0 PID: 543 Comm: kswapd0 Tainted: G O 4.5.0-rc2+ #4 Call Trace: lock_acquire+0xd8/0x1e0 down_write_nested+0x5e/0xc0 xfs_ilock+0x177/0x200 [xfs] xfs_reflink_cancel_cow_range+0x150/0x300 [xfs] xfs_fs_evict_inode+0xdc/0x1e0 [xfs] evict+0xc5/0x190 dispose_list+0x39/0x60 prune_icache_sb+0x4b/0x60 super_cache_scan+0x14f/0x1a0 shrink_slab.part.63.constprop.79+0x1e9/0x4e0 shrink_zone+0x15e/0x170 kswapd+0x4f1/0xa80 kthread+0xf2/0x110 ret_from_fork+0x3f/0x70 To quote Dave: "Ignoring whether reflink should be doing anything or not, that's a "xfs_refcountbt_init_cursor() gets called both outside and inside transactions" lockdep false positive case. The problem here is lockdep has seen this allocation from within a transaction, hence a GFP_NOFS allocation, and now it's seeing it in a GFP_KERNEL context. Also note that we have an active reference to this inode. So, because the reclaim annotations overload the interrupt level detections and it's seen the inode ilock been taken in reclaim ("interrupt") context, this triggers a reclaim context warning where it thinks it is unsafe to do this allocation in GFP_KERNEL context holding the inode ilock..." This sounds like a fundamental problem of the reclaim lock detection. It is really impossible to annotate such a special usecase IMHO unless the reclaim lockup detection is reworked completely. Until then it is much better to provide a way to add "I know what I am doing flag" and mark problematic places. This would prevent from abusing GFP_NOFS flag which has a runtime effect even on configurations which have lockdep disabled. Introduce __GFP_NOLOCKDEP flag which tells the lockdep gfp tracking to skip the current allocation request. While we are at it also make sure that the radix tree doesn't accidentaly override tags stored in the upper part of the gfp_mask.
