Commit d0164adc89f6 ("mm, page_alloc: distinguish between being unable
to sleep, unwilling to sleep and avoiding waking kswapd") modified
__GFP_WAIT to explicitly identify the difference between atomic callers
and those that were unwilling to sleep. Later the definition was
removed entirely.
The GFP_RECLAIM_MASK is the set of flags that affect watermark checking
and reclaim behaviour but __GFP_ATOMIC was never added. Without it,
atomic users of the slab allocator strip the __GFP_ATOMIC flag and
cannot access the page allocator atomic reserves. This patch addresses
the problem.
The user-visible impact depends on the workload but potentially atomic
allocations unnecessarily fail without this path.

Currently we may put reserved by mempool elements into quarantine via
kasan_kfree(). This is totally wrong since quarantine may really free
these objects. So when mempool will try to use such element,
use-after-free will happen. Or mempool may decide that it no longer
need that element and double-free it.
So don't put object into quarantine in kasan_kfree(), just poison it.
Rename kasan_kfree() to kasan_poison_kfree() to respect that.
Also, we shouldn't use kasan_slab_alloc()/kasan_krealloc() in
kasan_unpoison_element() because those functions may update allocation
stacktrace. This would be wrong for the most of the remove_element call
sites.
(The only call site where we may want to update alloc stacktrace is
in mempool_alloc(). Kmemleak solves this by calling
kmemleak_update_trace(), so we could make something like that too.
But this is out of scope of this patch).

jbd2_alloc is explicit about its allocation preferences wrt. the
allocation size. Sub page allocations go to the slab allocator and
larger are using either the page allocator or vmalloc. This is all good
but the logic is unnecessarily complex.
1) as per Ted, the vmalloc fallback is a left-over:
: jbd2_alloc is only passed in the bh->b_size, which can't be PAGE_SIZE, so
: the code path that calls vmalloc() should never get called. When we
: conveted jbd2_alloc() to suppor sub-page size allocations in commit
: d2eecb039368, there was an assumption that it could be called with a size
: greater than PAGE_SIZE, but that's certaily not true today.
Moreover vmalloc allocation might even lead to a deadlock because the
callers expect GFP_NOFS context while vmalloc is GFP_KERNEL.
2) __GFP_REPEAT for requests <= PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER is ignored
since the flag was introduced.
Let's simplify the code flow and use the slab allocator for sub-page
requests and the page allocator for others. Even though order > 0 is
not currently used as per above leave that option open.

{pud,pmd}_alloc_one are allocating from {PGT,PUD}_CACHE initialized in
pgtable_cache_init which doesn't have larger than sizeof(void *) << 12
size and that fits into !costly allocation request size.
PGALLOC_GFP is used only in radix__pgd_alloc which uses either order-0

second does. Drop __GFP_REPEAT from PGALLOC_GFP and add it for the
order-4 one.

__GFP_REPEAT has a rather weak semantic but since it has been introduced
around 2.6.12 it has been ignored for low order allocations.
{pte,pmd,pud}_alloc_one{_kernel}, late_pgtable_alloc use PGALLOC_GFP for
__get_free_page (aka order-0).
pgd_alloc is slightly more complex because it allocates from pgd_cache
if PGD_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE and PGD_SIZE depends on the configuration
(CONFIG_ARM64_VA_BITS, PAGE_SHIFT and CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS).
As per
config PGTABLE_LEVELS
int
default 2 if ARM64_16K_PAGES && ARM64_VA_BITS_36
default 2 if ARM64_64K_PAGES && ARM64_VA_BITS_42
default 3 if ARM64_64K_PAGES && ARM64_VA_BITS_48
default 3 if ARM64_4K_PAGES && ARM64_VA_BITS_39
default 3 if ARM64_16K_PAGES && ARM64_VA_BITS_47
default 4 if !ARM64_64K_PAGES && ARM64_VA_BITS_48
we should have the following options
CONFIG_ARM64_VA_BITS:48 CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS:4 PAGE_SIZE:4k size:4096 pages:1
CONFIG_ARM64_VA_BITS:48 CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS:4 PAGE_SIZE:16k size:16 pages:1
CONFIG_ARM64_VA_BITS:48 CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS:3 PAGE_SIZE:64k size:512 pages:1
CONFIG_ARM64_VA_BITS:47 CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS:3 PAGE_SIZE:16k size:16384 pages:1
CONFIG_ARM64_VA_BITS:42 CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS:2 PAGE_SIZE:64k size:65536 pages:1
CONFIG_ARM64_VA_BITS:39 CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS:3 PAGE_SIZE:4k size:4096 pages:1
CONFIG_ARM64_VA_BITS:36 CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS:2 PAGE_SIZE:16k size:16384 pages:1
All of them fit into a single page (aka order-0). This means that this
flag has never been actually useful here because it has always been used
only for PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY requests.

This is the third version of the patchset previously sent [1]. I have
basically only rebased it on top of 4.7-rc1 tree and dropped "dm: get
rid of superfluous gfp flags" which went through dm tree. I am sending
it now because it is tree wide and chances for conflicts are reduced
considerably when we want to target rc2. I plan to send the next step
and rename the flag and move to a better semantic later during this
release cycle so we will have a new semantic ready for 4.8 merge window
hopefully.
Motivation:
While working on something unrelated I've checked the current usage of
__GFP_REPEAT in the tree. It seems that a majority of the usage is and
always has been bogus because __GFP_REPEAT has always been about costly
high order allocations while we are using it for order-0 or very small
orders very often. It seems that a big pile of them is just a
copy&paste when a code has been adopted from one arch to another.
I think it makes some sense to get rid of them because they are just
making the semantic more unclear. Please note that GFP_REPEAT is
documented as
* __GFP_REPEAT: Try hard to allocate the memory, but the allocation attempt
* _might_ fail. This depends upon the particular VM implementation.
while !costly requests have basically nofail semantic. So one could
reasonably expect that order-0 request with __GFP_REPEAT will not loop
for ever. This is not implemented right now though.
I would like to move on with __GFP_REPEAT and define a better semantic
for it.
$ git grep __GFP_REPEAT origin/master | wc -l
111
$ git grep __GFP_REPEAT | wc -l
36
So we are down to the third after this patch series. The remaining
places really seem to be relying on __GFP_REPEAT due to large allocation
requests. This still needs some double checking which I will do later
after all the simple ones are sorted out.
I am touching a lot of arch specific code here and I hope I got it right
but as a matter of fact I even didn't compile test for some archs as I
do not have cross compiler for them. Patches should be quite trivial to
review for stupid compile mistakes though. The tricky parts are usually
hidden by macro definitions and thats where I would appreciate help from
arch maintainers.

This patch (of 19):
__GFP_REPEAT has a rather weak semantic but since it has been introduced
around 2.6.12 it has been ignored for low order allocations. Yet we
have the full kernel tree with its usage for apparently order-0
allocations. This is really confusing because __GFP_REPEAT is
explicitly documented to allow allocation failures which is a weaker
semantic than the current order-0 has (basically nofail).
Let's simply drop __GFP_REPEAT from those places. This would allow to
identify place which really need allocator to retry harder and formulate
a more specific semantic for what the flag is supposed to do actually.

Since commit 36324a990cf5 ("oom: clear TIF_MEMDIE after oom_reaper

for finding a mm_struct to reap, it is guaranteed that mm->mm_users > 0
because find_lock_task_mm() returns a task_struct with ->mm != NULL.
Therefore, we can safely use atomic_inc().

The INIT_TASK() initializer was similarly confused about the stack vs
thread_info allocation that the allocators had, and that were fixed in
commit b235beea9e99 ("Clarify naming of thread info/stack allocators").
The task ->stack pointer only incidentally ends up having the same value
as the thread_info, and in fact that will change.
So fix the initial task struct initializer to point to 'init_stack'
instead of 'init_thread_info', and make sure the ia64 definition for
that exists.
This actually makes the ia64 tsk->stack pointer be sensible for the
initial task, but not for any other task. As mentioned in commit
b235beea9e99, that whole pointer isn't actually used on ia64, since
task_stack_page() there just points to the (single) allocation.
All the other architectures seem to have copied the 'init_stack'
definition, even if it tended to be generally unusued.

As the actual pointer value is the same for the thread stack allocation
and the thread_info, code that confused the two worked fine, but will
break when the thread info is moved away from the stack allocation. It
also looks very confusing.
For example, the kprobe code wanted to know the current top of stack.
To do that, it used this:
(unsigned long)current_thread_info() + THREAD_SIZE
which did indeed give the correct value. But it's not only a fairly
nonsensical expression, it's also rather complex, especially since we
actually have this:
static inline unsigned long current_top_of_stack(void)
which not only gives us the value we are interested in, but happens to
be how "current_thread_info()" is currently defined as:
(struct thread_info *)(current_top_of_stack() - THREAD_SIZE);
so using current_thread_info() to figure out the top of the stack really
is a very round-about thing to do.
The other cases are just simpler confusion about task_thread_info() vs
task_stack_page(), which currently return the same pointer - but if you
want the stack page, you really should be using the latter one.
And there was one entirely unused assignment of the current stack to a
thread_info pointer.
All cleaned up to make more sense today, and make it easier to move the
thread_info away from the stack in the future.
No semantic changes.

We've had the thread info allocated together with the thread stack for
most architectures for a long time (since the thread_info was split off
from the task struct), but that is about to change.
But the patches that move the thread info to be off-stack (and a part of
the task struct instead) made it clear how confused the allocator and
freeing functions are.
Because the common case was that we share an allocation with the thread
stack and the thread_info, the two pointers were identical. That
identity then meant that we would have things like
ti = alloc_thread_info_node(tsk, node);
...
tsk->stack = ti;
which certainly _worked_ (since stack and thread_info have the same
value), but is rather confusing: why are we assigning a thread_info to
the stack? And if we move the thread_info away, the "confusing" code
just gets to be entirely bogus.
So remove all this confusion, and make it clear that we are doing the
stack allocation by renaming and clarifying the function names to be
about the stack. The fact that the thread_info then shares the
allocation is an implementation detail, and not really about the
allocation itself.
This is a pure renaming and type fix: we pass in the same pointer, it's
just that we clarify what the pointer means.
The ia64 code that actually only has one single allocation (for all of
task_struct, thread_info and kernel thread stack) now looks a bit odd,
but since "tsk->stack" is actually not even used there, that oddity
doesn't matter. It would be a separate thing to clean that up, I
intentionally left the ia64 changes as a pure brute-force renaming and
type change.

Use set_posix_acl, which includes proper permission checks, instead of
calling ->set_acl directly. Without this anyone may be able to grant
themselves permissions to a file by setting the ACL.
Lock the inode to make the new checks atomic with respect to set_acl.
(Also, nfsd was the only caller of set_acl not locking the inode, so I
suspect this may fix other races.)
This also simplifies the code, and ensures our ACLs are checked by
posix_acl_valid.
The permission checks and the inode locking were lost with commit
4ac7249e, which changed nfsd to use the set_acl inode operation directly
instead of going through xattr handlers.

A workaround is to call hrtimer_cancel() in dummy_hrtimer_sync() which
is called certainly before other blocking ops.

Reads following writes with all address bits set to 1 should return all
changeable address bits as one, not the BAR size (nor, as was the case
for the upper half of 64-bit BARs, the high half of the region's end
address). Presumably this didn't cause any problems so far because
consumers use the value to calculate the size (usually via val & -val),
and do nothing else with it.
But also consider the exception here: Unimplemented BARs should always
return all zeroes.
And finally, the check for whether to return the sizing address on read
for the ROM BAR should ignore all non-address bits, not just the ROM
Enable one.

During CPU hotplug, CPU_ONLINE callbacks are run while the CPU is
online but not active. A CPU_ONLINE callback may create or bind a
kthread so that its cpus_allowed mask only allows the CPU which is
being brought online. The kthread may start executing before the CPU
is made active and can end up in select_fallback_rq().
In such cases, the expected behavior is selecting the CPU which is
coming online; however, because select_fallback_rq() only chooses from
active CPUs, it determines that the task doesn't have any viable CPU
in its allowed mask and ends up overriding it to cpu_possible_mask.
CPU_ONLINE callbacks should be able to put kthreads on the CPU which
is coming online. Update select_fallback_rq() so that it follows
cpu_online() rather than cpu_active() for kthreads.

Cgroup created inside throttled group must inherit current throttle_count.
Broken throttle_count allows to nominate throttled entries as a next buddy,
later this leads to null pointer dereference in pick_next_task_fair().
This patch initialize cfs_rq->throttle_count at first enqueue: laziness
allows to skip locking all rq at group creation. Lazy approach also allows
to skip full sub-tree scan at throttling hierarchy (not in this patch).

The following scenario is possible:
CPU 1 CPU 2
static_key_slow_inc()
atomic_inc_not_zero()
-> key.enabled == 0, no increment
jump_label_lock()
atomic_inc_return()
-> key.enabled == 1 now
static_key_slow_inc()
atomic_inc_not_zero()
-> key.enabled == 1, inc to 2
return
** static key is wrong!
jump_label_update()
jump_label_unlock()
Testing the static key at the point marked by (**) will follow the
wrong path for jumps that have not been patched yet. This can
actually happen when creating many KVM virtual machines with userspace
LAPIC emulation; just run several copies of the following program:
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/ioctl.h>
#include <linux/kvm.h>
int main(void)
{
for (;;) {
int kvmfd = open("/dev/kvm", O_RDONLY);
int vmfd = ioctl(kvmfd, KVM_CREATE_VM, 0);
close(ioctl(vmfd, KVM_CREATE_VCPU, 1));
close(vmfd);
close(kvmfd);
}
return 0;
}
Every KVM_CREATE_VCPU ioctl will attempt a static_key_slow_inc() call.
The static key's purpose is to skip NULL pointer checks and indeed one
of the processes eventually dereferences NULL.
As explained in the commit that introduced the bug:
706249c222f6 ("locking/static_keys: Rework update logic")
jump_label_update() needs key.enabled to be true. The solution adopted
here is to temporarily make key.enabled == -1, and use go down the
slow path when key.enabled <= 0.
