In kernels built with CONFIG_PROVE_RCU=y (for example, lockdep kernels),
the following sequence of events can occur:
o rcu_init_tasks_generic() is invoked just before init is spawned.
It invokes rcu_spawn_tasks_kthread() and friends.
o rcu_spawn_tasks_kthread() invokes rcu_spawn_tasks_kthread_generic(),
which uses kthread_run() to create the needed kthread.
o Control returns to rcu_init_tasks_generic(), which, because this
is a CONFIG_PROVE_RCU=y kernel, invokes the version of the
rcu_tasks_initiate_self_tests() function that actually does
something, including invoking synchronize_rcu_tasks(), which
in turn invokes synchronize_rcu_tasks_generic().
o synchronize_rcu_tasks_generic() sees that the ->kthread_ptr is
still NULL, because the newly spawned kthread has not yet
started.
o The new kthread starts, preempting synchronize_rcu_tasks_generic()
just after its check. This kthread invokes rcu_tasks_one_gp(),
which acquires ->tasks_gp_mutex, and, seeing no work, blocks
in rcuwait_wait_event(). Note that this step requires either
a preemptible kernel or a fault-injection-style sleep at the
beginning of mutex_lock().
o synchronize_rcu_tasks_generic() resumes and invokes rcu_tasks_one_gp().
o rcu_tasks_one_gp() attempts to acquire ->tasks_gp_mutex, which
is still held by the newly spawned kthread's rcu_tasks_one_gp()
function. Deadlock.
Because the only reason for ->tasks_gp_mutex is to handle pre-kthread
synchronous grace periods, this commit avoids this deadlock by having
rcu_tasks_one_gp() momentarily release ->tasks_gp_mutex while invoking
rcuwait_wait_event(). This allows the call to rcu_tasks_one_gp() from
synchronize_rcu_tasks_generic() proceed.
Note that it is not necessary to release the mutex anywhere else in
rcu_tasks_one_gp() because rcuwait_wait_event() is the only function
that can block indefinitely.

Currently, cblist_init_generic() holds a raw spinlock when invoking
INIT_WORK(). This fails in kernels built with CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS=y
due to memory allocation being forbidden while holding a raw spinlock.
But the only reason for holding the raw spinlock is to synchronize
with early boot calls to call_rcu_tasks(), call_rcu_tasks_rude, and,
last but not least, call_rcu_tasks_trace(). These calls also invoke
cblist_init_generic() in order to support early boot queueing of
callbacks.
Except that there are no early boot calls to either of these three
functions, and the BPF guys confirm that they have no plans to add any
such calls.
This commit therefore removes the synchronization and adds a
WARN_ON_ONCE() to catch the case of now-prohibited early boot RCU Tasks
callback queueing.
If early boot queueing is needed, an "initialized" flag may be added to
the rcu_tasks structure. Then queueing a callback before this flag is set
would initialize the callback list (if needed) and queue the callback.
The decision as to where to queue the callback given the possibility of
non-zero boot CPUs is left as an exercise for the reader.

RCU Tasks Trace is quite specialized, having been created specifically
for sleepable BPF programs. Because it allows general blocking within
readers, any new use of RCU Tasks Trace must take current use cases into
account. Therefore, update checkpatch.pl to complain about use of any of
the RCU Tasks Trace API members outside of BPF and outside of RCU itself.

The various RCU Tasks flavors now do lazy grace periods when there are
only asynchronous grace period requests. By default, the system will let
250 milliseconds elapse after the first call_rcu_tasks*() callbacki is
queued before starting a grace period. In contrast, synchronous grace
period requests such as synchronize_rcu_tasks*() will start a grace
period immediately.
However, invoking one of the call_rcu_tasks*() functions in a too-tight
loop can result in a callback flood, which in turn can exhaust memory
if grace periods are delayed for too long.
This commit therefore sets a limit so that the grace-period kthread
will be awakened when any CPU's callback list expands to contain
rcupdate.rcu_task_lazy_lim callbacks elements (defaulting to 32, set to -1
to disable), the grace-period kthread will be awakened, thus cancelling
any ongoing laziness and getting out in front of the potential callback
flood.

The performance requirements on RCU Tasks, and in particular on RCU
Tasks Trace, have evolved over time as the workloads have evolved.
The current implementation is designed to provide low grace-period
latencies, and also to accommodate short-duration floods of callbacks.
However, current workloads can also provide a constant background
callback-queuing rate of a few hundred call_rcu_tasks_trace() invocations
per second. This results in continuous back-to-back RCU Tasks Trace
grace periods, which in turn can consume the better part of 10% of a CPU.
One could take the attitude that there are several tens of other CPUs on
the systems running such workloads, but energy efficiency is a thing.
On these systems, although asynchronous grace-period requests happen
every few milliseconds, synchronous grace-period requests are quite rare.
This commit therefore arrranges for grace periods to be initiated
immediately in response to calls to synchronize_rcu_tasks*() and
also to calls to synchronize_rcu_mult() that are passed one of the
call_rcu_tasks*() functions. These are recognized by the tell-tale
wakeme_after_rcu callback function.
In other cases, callbacks are gathered up for up to about 250 milliseconds
before a grace period is initiated. This results in more than an order of
magnitude reduction in RCU Tasks Trace grace periods, with corresponding
reduction in consumption of CPU time.

We just sorted the entries and fields last release, so just out of a
perverse sense of curiosity, I decided to see if we can keep things
ordered for even just one release.
The answer is "No. No we cannot".
I suggest that all kernel developers will need weekly training sessions,
involving a lot of Big Bird and Sesame Street. And at the yearly
maintainer summit, we will all sing the alphabet song together.
I doubt I will keep doing this. At some point "perverse sense of
curiosity" turns into just a cold dark place filled with sadness and
despair.

fork: lock VMAs of the parent process when forking
|
|
When forking a child process, the parent write-protects anonymous pages
and COW-shares them with the child being forked using copy_present_pte().
We must not take any concurrent page faults on the source vma's as they
are being processed, as we expect both the vma and the pte's behind it
to be stable. For example, the anon_vma_fork() expects the parents
vma->anon_vma to not change during the vma copy.
A concurrent page fault on a page newly marked read-only by the page
copy might trigger wp_page_copy() and a anon_vma_prepare(vma) on the
source vma, defeating the anon_vma_clone() that wasn't done because the
parent vma originally didn't have an anon_vma, but we now might end up
copying a pte entry for a page that has one.
Before the per-vma lock based changes, the mmap_lock guaranteed
exclusion with concurrent page faults. But now we need to do a
vma_start_write() to make sure no concurrent faults happen on this vma
while it is being processed.
This fix can potentially regress some fork-heavy workloads. Kernel
build time did not show noticeable regression on a 56-core machine while
a stress test mapping 10000 VMAs and forking 5000 times in a tight loop
shows ~5% regression. If such fork time regression is unacceptable,
disabling CONFIG_PER_VMA_LOCK should restore its performance. Further
optimizations are possible if this regression proves to be problematic.

mmap_region adds a newly created VMA into VMA tree and might modify it
afterwards before dropping the mmap_lock. This poses a problem for page
faults handled under per-VMA locks because they don't take the mmap_lock
and can stumble on this VMA while it's still being modified. Currently
this does not pose a problem since post-addition modifications are done
only for file-backed VMAs, which are not handled under per-VMA lock.
However, once support for handling file-backed page faults with per-VMA
locks is added, this will become a race.
Fix this by write-locking the VMA before inserting it into the VMA tree.
Other places where a new VMA is added into VMA tree do not modify it
after the insertion, so do not need the same locking.

Commit 946fa0dbf2d8 ("mm/slub: extend redzone check to extra allocated
kmalloc space than requested") added precise kmalloc redzone poisoning to
the slub_debug functionality.
However, this commit didn't account for HW_TAGS KASAN fully initializing
the object via its built-in memory initialization feature. Even though
HW_TAGS KASAN memory initialization contains special memory initialization
handling for when slub_debug is enabled, it does not account for in-object
slub_debug redzones. As a result, HW_TAGS KASAN can overwrite these
redzones and cause false-positive slub_debug reports.
To fix the issue, avoid HW_TAGS KASAN memory initialization when
slub_debug is enabled altogether. Implement this by moving the

Commit bb6e04a173f0 ("kasan: use internal prototypes matching gcc-13
builtins") introduced a bug into the memory_is_poisoned_n implementation:
it effectively removed the cast to a signed integer type after applying
KASAN_GRANULE_MASK.
As a result, KASAN started failing to properly check memset, memcpy, and
other similar functions.
Fix the bug by adding the cast back (through an additional signed integer
variable to make the code more readable).

Patch series "Update .mailmap for my work address and fix manpage".
While updating mailmap for the going-away address, I also found that on
current systems the manpage linked from the header comment changed.
And in fact it looks like the git mailmap feature got its own manpage.
This patch (of 2):
On recent systems the git-shortlog manpage only tells people to
See gitmailmap(5)
So instead of sending people on a scavenger hunt, put that info into the
header directly. Though keep the old reference around for older systems.

commit dd0ff4d12dd2 ("bootmem: remove the vmemmap pages from kmemleak in
put_page_bootmem") fix an overlaps existing problem of kmemleak. But the
problem still existed when HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE is disabled, because in
this case, free_bootmem_page() will call free_reserved_page() directly.
Fix the problem by adding kmemleak_free_part() in free_bootmem_page() when
HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE is disabled.

nr_to_write is a count of pages, so we need to decrease it by the number
of pages in the folio we just wrote, not by 1. Most callers specify
either LONG_MAX or 1, so are unaffected, but writeback_sb_inodes() might
end up writing 512x as many pages as it asked for.
Dave added:
: XFS is the only filesystem this would affect, right? AFAIA, nothing

Commit c145e0b47c77 ("mm: streamline COW logic in do_swap_page()") moved
the call to swap_free() before the call to set_pte_at(), which meant that
the MTE tags could end up being freed before set_pte_at() had a chance to
restore them. Fix it by adding a call to the arch_swap_restore() hook
before the call to swap_free().

That happens because a BUG() statement in huge_pte_alloc() attempts to
check that a pte, if present, is a hugetlb pte, but it does so in a
non-lockless-safe manner that leads to a false BUG() report.
We got here due to a couple of bugs, each of which by itself was not quite
enough to cause a problem:
First of all, before commit c33c794828f2("mm: ptep_get() conversion"), the
BUG() statement in huge_pte_alloc() was itself fragile: it relied upon
compiler behavior to only read the pte once, despite using it twice in the
same conditional.
Next, commit c33c794828f2 ("mm: ptep_get() conversion") broke that
delicate situation, by causing all direct pte reads to be done via
READ_ONCE(). And so READ_ONCE() got called twice within the same BUG()
conditional, leading to comparing (potentially, occasionally) different
versions of the pte, and thus to false BUG() reports.
Fix this by taking a single snapshot of the pte before using it in the
BUG conditional.
Now, that commit is only partially to blame here but, people doing
bisections will invariably land there, so this will help them find a fix
for a real crash. And also, the previous behavior was unlikely to ever
expose this bug--it was fragile, yet not actually broken.
So that's why I chose this commit for the Fixes tag, rather than the
commit that created the original BUG() statement.

Patch series "Avoid memory corruption caused by per-VMA locks", v4.
A memory corruption was reported in [1] with bisection pointing to the
patch [2] enabling per-VMA locks for x86. Based on the reproducer
provided in [1] we suspect this is caused by the lack of VMA locking while
forking a child process.
Patch 1/2 in the series implements proper VMA locking during fork. I
tested the fix locally using the reproducer and was unable to reproduce
the memory corruption problem.
This fix can potentially regress some fork-heavy workloads. Kernel build
time did not show noticeable regression on a 56-core machine while a
stress test mapping 10000 VMAs and forking 5000 times in a tight loop
shows ~7% regression. If such fork time regression is unacceptable,
disabling CONFIG_PER_VMA_LOCK should restore its performance. Further
optimizations are possible if this regression proves to be problematic.
Patch 2/2 disables per-VMA locks until the fix is tested and verified.
This patch (of 2):
When forking a child process, parent write-protects an anonymous page and
COW-shares it with the child being forked using copy_present_pte().
Parent's TLB is flushed right before we drop the parent's mmap_lock in
dup_mmap(). If we get a write-fault before that TLB flush in the parent,
and we end up replacing that anonymous page in the parent process in
do_wp_page() (because, COW-shared with the child), this might lead to some
stale writable TLB entries targeting the wrong (old) page. Similar issue
happened in the past with userfaultfd (see flush_tlb_page() call inside
do_wp_page()).
Lock VMAs of the parent process when forking a child, which prevents
concurrent page faults during fork operation and avoids this issue. This
fix can potentially regress some fork-heavy workloads. Kernel build time
did not show noticeable regression on a 56-core machine while a stress
test mapping 10000 VMAs and forking 5000 times in a tight loop shows ~7%
regression. If such fork time regression is unacceptable, disabling
CONFIG_PER_VMA_LOCK should restore its performance. Further optimizations
are possible if this regression proves to be problematic.

pci_enable_pcie_error_reporting() enables the device to send ERR_*
Messages. Since f26e58bf6f54 ("PCI/AER: Enable error reporting when AER is
native"), the PCI core does this for all devices during enumeration, so the
driver doesn't need to do it itself.
Remove the redundant pci_enable_pcie_error_reporting() call from the
driver. Also remove the corresponding pci_disable_pcie_error_reporting()
from the driver .remove() path.
Note that this only controls ERR_* Messages from the device. An ERR_*
Message may cause the Root Port to generate an interrupt, depending on the
AER Root Error Command register managed by the AER service driver.
