gcc-10 has started warning about conflicting types for a few new
built-in functions, particularly 'free()'.
This results in warnings like:
crypto/xts.c:325:13: warning: conflicting types for built-in function ‘free’; expected ‘void(void *)’ [-Wbuiltin-declaration-mismatch]
because the crypto layer had its local freeing functions called
'free()'.
Gcc-10 is in the wrong here, since that function is marked 'static', and
thus there is no chance of confusion with any standard library function
namespace.
But the simplest thing to do is to just use a different name here, and
avoid this gcc mis-feature.
[ Side note: gcc knowing about 'free()' is in itself not the
mis-feature: the semantics of 'free()' are special enough that a
compiler can validly do special things when seeing it.
So the mis-feature here is that gcc thinks that 'free()' is some
restricted name, and you can't shadow it as a local static function.
Making the special 'free()' semantics be a function attribute rather
than tied to the name would be the much better model ]

gcc-10 now warns about passing aliasing pointers to functions that take
restricted pointers.
That's actually a great warning, and if we ever start using 'restrict'
in the kernel, it might be quite useful. But right now we don't, and it
turns out that the only thing this warns about is an idiom where we have
declared a few functions to be "printf-like" (which seems to make gcc
pick up the restricted pointer thing), and then we print to the same
buffer that we also use as an input.
And people do that as an odd concatenation pattern, with code like this:
#define sysfs_show_gen_prop(buffer, fmt, ...) \
snprintf(buffer, PAGE_SIZE, "%s"fmt, buffer, __VA_ARGS__)
where we have 'buffer' as both the destination of the final result, and
as the initial argument.
Yes, it's a bit questionable. And outside of the kernel, people do have
standard declarations like
int snprintf( char *restrict buffer, size_t bufsz,
const char *restrict format, ... );
where that output buffer is marked as a restrict pointer that cannot
alias with any other arguments.
But in the context of the kernel, that 'use snprintf() to concatenate to
the end result' does work, and the pattern shows up in multiple places.
And we have not marked our own version of snprintf() as taking restrict
pointers, so the warning is incorrect for now, and gcc picks it up on
its own.
If we do start using 'restrict' in the kernel (and it might be a good
idea if people find places where it matters), we'll need to figure out
how to avoid this issue for snprintf and friends. But in the meantime,
this warning is not useful.

This is the final array bounds warning removal for gcc-10 for now.
Again, the warning is good, and we should re-enable all these warnings
when we have converted all the legacy array declaration cases to
flexible arrays. But in the meantime, it's just noise.

This is another fine warning, related to the 'zero-length-bounds' one,
but hitting the same historical code in the kernel.
Because C didn't historically support flexible array members, we have
code that instead uses a one-sized array, the same way we have cases of
zero-sized arrays.
The one-sized arrays come from either not wanting to use the gcc
zero-sized array extension, or from a slight convenience-feature, where
particularly for strings, the size of the structure now includes the
allocation for the final NUL character.
So with a "char name[1];" at the end of a structure, you can do things
like
v = my_malloc(sizeof(struct vendor) + strlen(name));
and avoid the "+1" for the terminator.
Yes, the modern way to do that is with a flexible array, and using
'offsetof()' instead of 'sizeof()', and adding the "+1" by hand. That
also technically gets the size "more correct" in that it avoids any
alignment (and thus padding) issues, but this is another long-term
cleanup thing that will not happen for 5.7.
So disable the warning for now, even though it's potentially quite
useful. Having a slew of warnings that then hide more urgent new issues
is not an improvement.

This is a fine warning, but we still have a number of zero-length arrays
in the kernel that come from the traditional gcc extension. Yes, they
are getting converted to flexible arrays, but in the meantime the gcc-10
warning about zero-length bounds is very verbose, and is hiding other
issues.
I missed one actual build failure because it was hidden among hundreds
of lines of warning. Thankfully I caught it on the second go before
pushing things out, but it convinced me that I really need to disable
the new warnings for now.
We'll hopefully be all done with our conversion to flexible arrays in
the not too distant future, and we can then re-enable this warning.

We have some rather random rules about when we accept the
"maybe-initialized" warnings, and when we don't.
For example, we consider it unreliable for gcc versions < 4.9, but also
if -O3 is enabled, or if optimizing for size. And then various kernel
config options disabled it, because they know that they trigger that
warning by confusing gcc sufficiently (ie PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES).
And now gcc-10 seems to be introducing a lot of those warnings too, so
it falls under the same heading as 4.9 did.
At the same time, we have a very straightforward way to _enable_ that
warning when wanted: use "W=2" to enable more warnings.
So stop playing these ad-hoc games, and just disable that warning by
default, with the known and straight-forward "if you want to work on the
extra compiler warnings, use W=123".
Would it be great to have code that is always so obvious that it never
confuses the compiler whether a variable is used initialized or not?
Yes, it would. In a perfect world, the compilers would be smarter, and
our source code would be simpler.
That's currently not the world we live in, though.

Commit 1c30844d2dfe ("mm: reclaim small amounts of memory when an
external fragmentation event occurs") adds a boost_watermark() function
which increases the min watermark in a zone by at least
pageblock_nr_pages or the number of pages in a page block.
On Arm64, with 64K pages and 512M huge pages, this is 8192 pages or
512M. It does this regardless of the number of managed pages managed in
the zone or the likelihood of success.
This can put the zone immediately under water in terms of allocating
pages from the zone, and can cause a small machine to fail immediately
due to OoM. Unlike set_recommended_min_free_kbytes(), which
substantially increases min_free_kbytes and is tied to THP,
boost_watermark() can be called even if THP is not active.
The problem is most likely to appear on architectures such as Arm64
where pageblock_nr_pages is very large.
It is desirable to run the kdump capture kernel in as small a space as
possible to avoid wasting memory. In some architectures, such as Arm64,
there are restrictions on where the capture kernel can run, and
therefore, the space available. A capture kernel running in 768M can
fail due to OoM immediately after boost_watermark() sets the min in zone
DMA32, where most of the memory is, to 512M. It fails even though there
is over 500M of free memory. With boost_watermark() suppressed, the
capture kernel can run successfully in 448M.
This patch limits boost_watermark() to boosting a zone's min watermark
only when there are enough pages that the boost will produce positive
results. In this case that is estimated to be four times as many pages
as pageblock_nr_pages.
Mel said:
: There is no harm in marking it stable. Clearly it does not happen very
: often but it's not impossible. 32-bit x86 is a lot less common now
: which would previously have been vulnerable to triggering this easily.
: ppc64 has a larger base page size but typically only has one zone.
: arm64 is likely the most vulnerable, particularly when CMA is
: configured with a small movable zone.

This patch does two things:
- fixes a lost wakeup introduced by commit 339ddb53d373 ("fs/epoll:
remove unnecessary wakeups of nested epoll")
- improves performance for events delivery.
The description of the problem is the following: if N (>1) threads are
waiting on ep->wq for new events and M (>1) events come, it is quite
likely that >1 wakeups hit the same wait queue entry, because there is
quite a big window between __add_wait_queue_exclusive() and the
following __remove_wait_queue() calls in ep_poll() function.
This can lead to lost wakeups, because thread, which was woken up, can
handle not all the events in ->rdllist. (in better words the problem is
described here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/10/7/905)
The idea of the current patch is to use init_wait() instead of
init_waitqueue_entry().
Internally init_wait() sets autoremove_wake_function as a callback,
which removes the wait entry atomically (under the wq locks) from the
list, thus the next coming wakeup hits the next wait entry in the wait
queue, thus preventing lost wakeups.
Problem is very well reproduced by the epoll60 test case [1].
Wait entry removal on wakeup has also performance benefits, because
there is no need to take a ep->lock and remove wait entry from the queue
after the successful wakeup. Here is the timing output of the epoll60
test case:
With explicit wakeup from ep_scan_ready_list() (the state of the
code prior 339ddb53d373):
real 0m6.970s
user 0m49.786s
sys 0m0.113s
After this patch:
real 0m5.220s
user 0m36.879s
sys 0m0.019s
The other testcase is the stress-epoll [2], where one thread consumes
all the events and other threads produce many events:
With explicit wakeup from ep_scan_ready_list() (the state of the
code prior 339ddb53d373):
threads events/ms run-time ms
8 5427 1474
16 6163 2596
32 6824 4689
64 7060 9064
128 6991 18309
After this patch:
threads events/ms run-time ms
8 5598 1429
16 7073 2262
32 7502 4265
64 7640 8376
128 7634 16767
(number of "events/ms" represents event bandwidth, thus higher is
better; number of "run-time ms" represents overall time spent
doing the benchmark, thus lower is better)

This test case catches lost wake up introduced by commit 339ddb53d373
("fs/epoll: remove unnecessary wakeups of nested epoll")
The test is simple: we have 10 threads and 10 event fds. Each thread
can harvest only 1 event. 1 producer fires all 10 events at once and
waits that all 10 events will be observed by 10 threads.
In case of lost wakeup epoll_wait() will timeout and 0 will be returned.
Test case catches two sort of problems: forgotten wakeup on event, which
hits the ->ovflist list, this problem was fixed by:
5a2513239750 ("eventpoll: fix missing wakeup for ovflist in ep_poll_callback")
the other problem is when several sequential events hit the same waiting
thread, thus other waiters get no wakeups. Problem is fixed in the
following patch.

Since 5.7-rc1, on btrfs we have a percpu counter initialization for
which we always pass a GFP_KERNEL gfp_t argument (this happens since
commit 2992df73268f78 ("btrfs: Implement DREW lock")).
That is safe in some contextes but not on others where allowing fs
reclaim could lead to a deadlock because we are either holding some
btrfs lock needed for a transaction commit or holding a btrfs
transaction handle open. Because of that we surround the call to the
function that initializes the percpu counter with a NOFS context using
memalloc_nofs_save() (this is done at btrfs_init_fs_root()).
However it turns out that this is not enough to prevent a possible
deadlock because percpu_alloc() determines if it is in an atomic context
by looking exclusively at the gfp flags passed to it (GFP_KERNEL in this
case) and it is not aware that a NOFS context is set.
Because percpu_alloc() thinks it is in a non atomic context it locks the
pcpu_alloc_mutex. This can result in a btrfs deadlock when
pcpu_balance_workfn() is running, has acquired that mutex and is waiting
for reclaim, while the btrfs task that called percpu_counter_init() (and
therefore percpu_alloc()) is holding either the btrfs commit_root
semaphore or a transaction handle (done fs/btrfs/backref.c:
iterate_extent_inodes()), which prevents reclaim from finishing as an
attempt to commit the current btrfs transaction will deadlock.

This could be fixed by making btrfs pass GFP_NOFS instead of GFP_KERNEL
to percpu_counter_init() in contextes where it is not reclaim safe,
however that type of approach is discouraged since
memalloc_[nofs|noio]_save() were introduced. Therefore this change
makes pcpu_alloc() look up into an existing nofs/noio context before
deciding whether it is in an atomic context or not.

In a couple of places in the slub memory allocator, the code uses
"s->offset" as a check to see if the free pointer is put right after the
object. That check is no longer true with commit 3202fa62fb43 ("slub:
relocate freelist pointer to middle of object").
As a result, echoing "1" into the validate sysfs file, e.g. of dentry,
may cause a bunch of "Freepointer corrupt" error reports like the
following to appear with the system in panic afterwards.
=============================================================================
BUG dentry(666:pmcd.service) (Tainted: G B): Freepointer corrupt
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
To fix it, use the check "s->offset == s->inuse" in the new helper
function freeptr_outside_object() instead. Also add another helper
function get_info_end() to return the end of info block (inuse + free
pointer if not overlapping with object).

The current implementations of the rb_first() and rb_last() gdb
functions have a variable that references itself in its instanciation,
which causes the function to throw an error if a specific condition on
the argument is met. The original author rather intended to reference
the argument and made a typo. Referring the argument instead makes the

In the event that we add to ovflist, before commit 339ddb53d373
("fs/epoll: remove unnecessary wakeups of nested epoll") we would be
woken up by ep_scan_ready_list, and did no wakeup in ep_poll_callback.
With that wakeup removed, if we add to ovflist here, we may never wake
up. Rather than adding back the ep_scan_ready_list wakeup - which was
resulting in unnecessary wakeups, trigger a wake-up in ep_poll_callback.
We noticed that one of our workloads was missing wakeups starting with
339ddb53d373 and upon manual inspection, this wakeup seemed missing to me.
With this patch added, we no longer see missing wakeups. I haven't yet
tried to make a small reproducer, but the existing kselftests in
filesystem/epoll passed for me with this patch.

If the trapping instruction contains a ':', for a memory access through
segment registers for example, the sed substitution will insert the '*'
marker in the middle of the instruction instead of the line address:
2b: 65 48 0f c7 0f cmpxchg16b %gs:*(%rdi) <-- trapping instruction
I started to think I had forgotten some quirk of the assembly syntax
before noticing that it was actually coming from the script. Fix it to
add the address marker at the right place for these instructions:
28: 49 8b 06 mov (%r14),%rax
2b:* 65 48 0f c7 0f cmpxchg16b %gs:(%rdi) <-- trapping instruction

When I run my memcg testcase which creates lots of memcgs, I found
there're unexpected out of memory logs while there're still enough
available free memory. The error log is
mkdir: cannot create directory 'foo.65533': Cannot allocate memory
The reason is when we try to create more than MEM_CGROUP_ID_MAX memcgs,
an -ENOMEM errno will be set by mem_cgroup_css_alloc(), but the right
errno should be -ENOSPC "No space left on device", which is an
appropriate errno for userspace's failed mkdir.
As the errno really misled me, we should make it right. After this
patch, the error log will be
mkdir: cannot create directory 'foo.65533': No space left on device

Commit cc731525f26a ("signal: Remove kernel interal si_code magic")
changed the value of SI_FROMUSER(SI_MESGQ), this means that mq_notify() no
longer works if the sender doesn't have rights to send a signal.
Change __do_notify() to use do_send_sig_info() instead of kill_pid_info()
to avoid check_kill_permission().
This needs the additional notify.sigev_signo != 0 check, shouldn't we
change do_mq_notify() to deny sigev_signo == 0 ?
Test-case:
#include <signal.h>
#include <mqueue.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/wait.h>
#include <assert.h>
static int notified;
static void sigh(int sig)
{
notified = 1;
}
int main(void)
{
signal(SIGIO, sigh);
int fd = mq_open("/mq", O_RDWR|O_CREAT, 0666, NULL);
assert(fd >= 0);
struct sigevent se = {
.sigev_notify = SIGEV_SIGNAL,

We currently make some guesses as when to open this fd, but in reality
we have no business (or need) to do so at all. In fact, it makes certain
things fail, like O_PATH.
Remove the fd lookup from these opcodes, we're just passing the 'fd' to
generic helpers anyway. With that, we can also remove the special casing
of fd values in io_req_needs_file(), and the 'fd_non_neg' check that
we have. And we can ensure that we only read sqe->fd once.
This fixes O_PATH usage with openat/openat2, and ditto statx path side
oddities.

x86_64 lazily maps in the vmalloc pages, and the way this works with per_cpu
areas can be complex, to say the least. Mappings may happen at boot up, and
if nothing synchronizes the page tables, those page mappings may not be
synced till they are used. This causes issues for anything that might touch
one of those mappings in the path of the page fault handler. When one of
those unmapped mappings is touched in the page fault handler, it will cause
another page fault, which in turn will cause a page fault, and leave us in
a loop of page faults.
Commit 763802b53a42 ("x86/mm: split vmalloc_sync_all()") split
vmalloc_sync_all() into vmalloc_sync_unmappings() and
vmalloc_sync_mappings(), as on system exit, it did not need to do a full
sync on x86_64 (although it still needed to be done on x86_32). By chance,
the vmalloc_sync_all() would synchronize the page mappings done at boot up
and prevent the per cpu area from being a problem for tracing in the page
fault handler. But when that synchronization in the exit of a task became a
nop, it caused the problem to appear.

added, and this can cause the kernel to crash as the kernel thread might be
executing after its code has been removed.
There's no reason that the caller of the code shouldn't just wait for the
delay thread to finish, as the thread can also be created by a trigger in
the sysfs code, which also has the same issues.

do_splice() is used by io_uring, as will be do_tee(). Move f_mode
checks from sys_{splice,tee}() to do_{splice,tee}(), so they're
enforced for io_uring as well.

The static analyzer in GCC 10 spotted that in huge_pte_alloc() we may
pass a NULL pmdp into pte_alloc_map() when pmd_alloc() returns NULL:
| CC arch/arm64/mm/pageattr.o
| CC arch/arm64/mm/hugetlbpage.o
| from arch/arm64/mm/hugetlbpage.c:10:
| arch/arm64/mm/hugetlbpage.c: In function ‘huge_pte_alloc’:
| ./arch/arm64/include/asm/pgtable-types.h:28:24: warning: dereference of NULL ‘pmdp’ [CWE-690] [-Wanalyzer-null-dereference]
| ./arch/arm64/include/asm/pgtable.h:436:26: note: in expansion of macro ‘pmd_val’
| arch/arm64/mm/hugetlbpage.c:242:10: note: in expansion of macro ‘pte_alloc_map’
| |arch/arm64/mm/hugetlbpage.c:232:10:
| |./arch/arm64/include/asm/pgtable-types.h:28:24:

| arch/arm64/mm/hugetlbpage.c:242:10: note: in expansion of macro ‘pte_alloc_map’
This can only occur when the kernel cannot allocate a page, and so is
unlikely to happen in practice before other systems start failing.
We can avoid this by bailing out if pmd_alloc() fails, as we do earlier
in the function if pud_alloc() fails.
