2015-12-06x86/headers: Don't include asm/processor.h in asm/atomic.hAndi Kleen1-0/+4
asm/atomic.h doesn't really need asm/processor.h anymore. Everything it uses has moved to other header files. So remove that include. processor.h is a nasty header that includes lots of other headers and makes it prone to include loops. Removing the include here makes asm/atomic.h a "leaf" header that can be safely included in most other headers. The only fallout is in the lib/atomic tester which relied on this implicit include. Give it an explicit include. (the include is in ifdef because the user is also in ifdef) Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <[email protected]> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <[email protected]> Cc: Jiri Olsa <[email protected]> Cc: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]> Cc: Mike Galbraith <[email protected]> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <[email protected]> Cc: Stephane Eranian <[email protected]> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <[email protected]> Cc: Vince Weaver <[email protected]> Cc: [email protected] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/[email protected] Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <[email protected]>
2015-12-05Revert "rhashtable: Use __vmalloc with GFP_ATOMIC for table allocation"David S. Miller1-3/+2
This reverts commit d3716f18a7d841565c930efde30737a3557eee69. vmalloc cannot be used in BH disabled contexts, even with GFP_ATOMIC. And we certainly want to support rhashtable users inserting entries with software interrupts disabled. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <[email protected]>
2015-12-04rhashtable: Use __vmalloc with GFP_ATOMIC for table allocationHerbert Xu1-2/+3
When an rhashtable user pounds rhashtable hard with back-to-back insertions we may end up growing the table in GFP_ATOMIC context. Unfortunately when the table reaches a certain size this often fails because we don't have enough physically contiguous pages to hold the new table. Eric Dumazet suggested (and in fact wrote this patch) using __vmalloc instead which can be used in GFP_ATOMIC context.

2015-12-04rhashtable: Prevent spurious EBUSY errors on insertionHerbert Xu1-15/+30
Thomas and Phil observed that under stress rhashtable insertion sometimes failed with EBUSY, even though this error should only ever been seen when we're under attack and our hash chain length has grown to an unacceptable level, even after a rehash. It turns out that the logic for detecting whether there is an existing rehash is faulty. In particular, when two threads both try to grow the same table at the same time, one of them may see the newly grown table and thus erroneously conclude that it had been rehashed. This is what leads to the EBUSY error. This patch fixes this by remembering the current last table we used during insertion so that rhashtable_insert_rehash can detect when another thread has also done a resize/rehash. When this is detected we will give up our resize/rehash and simply retry the insertion with the new table.

2015-12-01net: add support for netdev notifier error injectionNikolay Aleksandrov3-0/+78
This module allows to insert errors in some of netdevice's notifier events. All network drivers use these notifiers to signal various events and to check if they are allowed, e.g. PRECHANGEMTU and CHANGEMTU afterwards. Until recently I had to run failure tests by injecting a custom module, but now this infrastructure makes it trivial to test these failure paths. Some of the recent bugs I fixed were found using this module. Here's an example: $ cd /sys/kernel/debug/notifier-error-inject/netdev $ echo -22 > actions/NETDEV_CHANGEMTU/error $ ip link set eth0 mtu 1024 RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument CC: Akinobu Mita <[email protected]> CC: "David S.

The enable_kernel_*() functions leave the relevant MSR bits enabled until we exit the kernel sometime later. Create disable versions that wrap the kernel use of FP, Altivec VSX or SPE. While we don't want to disable it normally for performance reasons (MSR writes are slow), it will be used for a debug boot option that does this and catches bad uses in other areas of the kernel.

2015-11-23rhashtable-test: calculate max_entries value by defaultPhil Sutter1-3/+5
A maximum table size of 64k entries is insufficient for the multiple threads test even in default configuration (10 threads * 50000 objects = 500000 objects in total). Since we know how many objects will be inserted, calculate the max size unless overridden by parameter.

2015-11-06lib/kobject.c: use kvasprintf_const for formatting ->nameRasmus Villemoes1-8/+22
Sometimes kobject_set_name_vargs is called with a format string conaining no %, or a format string of precisely "%s", where the single vararg happens to point to .rodata. kvasprintf_const detects these cases for us and returns a copy of that pointer instead of duplicating the string, thus saving some run-time memory. Otherwise, it falls back to kvasprintf. We just need to always deallocate ->name using kfree_const. Unfortunately, the dance we need to do to perform the '/' -> '!' sanitization makes the resulting code rather ugly. I instrumented kstrdup_const to provide some statistics on the memory saved, and for me this gave an additional ~14KB after boot (306KB was already saved; this patch bumped that to 320KB). I have KMALLOC_SHIFT_LOW==3, and since 80% of the kvasprintf_const hits were satisfied by an 8-byte allocation, the 14K would roughly be quadrupled when KMALLOC_SHIFT_LOW==5. Whether these numbers are sufficient to justify the ugliness I'll leave to others to decide.

2015-11-06lib/kasprintf.c: introduce kvasprintf_constRasmus Villemoes1-0/+16
This adds kvasprintf_const which tries to use kstrdup_const if possible: If the format string contains no % characters, or if the format string is exactly "%s", we delegate to kstrdup_const. Otherwise, we fall back to kvasprintf. Just as for kstrdup_const, the main motivation is to save memory by reusing .rodata when possible. The return value should be freed by kfree_const, just like for kstrdup_const. There is deliberately no kasprintf_const: In the vast majority of cases, the format string argument is a literal, so one can determine statically whether one could instead use kstrdup_const directly (which would also require one to change all corresponding kfree calls to kfree_const).

2015-11-06lib/llist.c: fix data race in llist_del_firstDmitry Vyukov1-2/+2
llist_del_first reads entry->next, but it did not acquire visibility over the entry node. As the result it can get a stale value of entry->next (e.g. NULL or whatever garbage was there before the appending thread wrote correct value). And then commit that value as llist head with cmpxchg. That will corrupt llist. Note there is a control-dependency between read of head->first and read of entry->next, but it does not make the code correct. Kernel memory model unambiguously says: "A load-load control dependency requires a full read memory barrier". Use smp_load_acquire to acquire visibility over the entry node. The data race was found with KernelThreadSanitizer (KTSAN).

2015-11-06test_printf: test printf family at runtimeRasmus Villemoes3-0/+366
This adds a simple module for testing the kernel's printf facilities. Previously, some %p extensions have caused a wrong return value in case the entire output didn't fit and/or been unusable in kasprintf(). This should help catch such issues. Also, it should help ensure that changes to the formatting algorithms don't break anything. I'm not sure if we have a struct dentry or struct file lying around at boot time or if we can fake one, but most %p extensions should be testable, as should the ordinary number and string formatting. The nature of vararg functions means we can't use a more conventional table-driven approach. For now, this is mostly a skeleton; contributions are very welcome. Some tests are/will be slightly annoying to write, since the expected output depends on stuff like CONFIG_*, sizeof(long), runtime values etc. Signed-off-by: Rasmus Villemoes <[email protected]> Reviewed-by: Kees Cook <[email protected]> Cc: Andy Shevchenko <[email protected]> Cc: Martin Kletzander <[email protected]> Cc: Rasmus Villemoes <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]>
2015-11-06lib/vsprintf.c: remove SPECIAL handling in pointer()Rasmus Villemoes1-1/+1
As a quick git grep -E '%[ +0#-]*#[ +0#-]*(\*|[0-9]+)?(\.(\*|[0-9]+)?)?p' shows, nobody uses the # flag with %p. Should one try to do so, one will be met with warning: `#' flag used with `%p' gnu_printf format [-Wformat] (POSIX and C99 both say "... For other conversion specifiers, the behavior is undefined.". Obviously, the kernel can choose to define the behaviour however it wants, but as long as gcc issues that warning, users are unlikely to show up.) Since default_width is effectively always 2*sizeof(void*), we can simplify the prologue of pointer() and save a few instructions.

Quoting from 2aa2f9e21e4e ("lib/vsprintf.c: improve sanity check in vsnprintf()"): On 64 bit, size may very well be huge even if bit 31 happens to be 0. Somehow it doesn't feel right that one can pass a 5 GiB buffer but not a 3 GiB one. So cap at INT_MAX as was probably the intention all along. This is also the made-up value passed by sprintf and vsprintf. I should have seen this copy-pasted instance back then, but let's just do it now.

2015-11-06lib/vsprintf.c: handle invalid format specifiers more robustlyRasmus Villemoes1-10/+21
If we meet any invalid or unsupported format specifier, 'handling' it by just printing it as a literal string is not safe: Presumably the format string and the arguments passed gcc's type checking, but that means something like sprintf(buf, "%n %pd", &intvar, dentry) would end up interpreting &intvar as a struct dentry*. When the offending specifier was %n it used to be at the end of the format string, but we can't rely on that always being the case. Also, gcc doesn't complain about some more or less exotic qualifiers (or 'length modifiers' in posix-speak) such as 'j' or 'q', but being unrecognized by the kernel's printf implementation, they'd be interpreted as unknown specifiers, and the rest of arguments would be interpreted wrongly. So let's complain about anything we don't understand, not just %n, and stop pretending that we'd be able to make sense of the rest of the format/arguments. If the offending specifier is in a printk() call we unfortunately only get a "BUG: recent printk recursion!", but at least direct users of the sprintf family will be caught.

2015-11-06mm, page_alloc: rename __GFP_WAIT to __GFP_RECLAIMMel Gorman1-1/+1
__GFP_WAIT was used to signal that the caller was in atomic context and could not sleep. Now it is possible to distinguish between true atomic context and callers that are not willing to sleep. The latter should clear __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM so kswapd will still wake. As clearing __GFP_WAIT behaves differently, there is a risk that people will clear the wrong flags. This patch renames __GFP_WAIT to __GFP_RECLAIM to clearly indicate what it does -- setting it allows all reclaim activity, clearing them prevents it.

2015-11-06mm, page_alloc: distinguish between being unable to sleep, unwilling to ↵Mel Gorman2-7/+7
sleep and avoiding waking kswapd __GFP_WAIT has been used to identify atomic context in callers that hold spinlocks or are in interrupts. They are expected to be high priority and have access one of two watermarks lower than "min" which can be referred to as the "atomic reserve". __GFP_HIGH users get access to the first lower watermark and can be called the "high priority reserve". Over time, callers had a requirement to not block when fallback options were available. Some have abused __GFP_WAIT leading to a situation where an optimisitic allocation with a fallback option can access atomic reserves. This patch uses __GFP_ATOMIC to identify callers that are truely atomic, cannot sleep and have no alternative. High priority users continue to use __GFP_HIGH. __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM identifies callers that can sleep and are willing to enter direct reclaim. __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM to identify callers that want to wake kswapd for background reclaim. __GFP_WAIT is redefined as a caller that is willing to enter direct reclaim and wake kswapd for background reclaim. This patch then converts a number of sites o __GFP_ATOMIC is used by callers that are high priority and have memory pools for those requests. GFP_ATOMIC uses this flag. o Callers that have a limited mempool to guarantee forward progress clear __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM but keep __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. bio allocations fall into this category where kswapd will still be woken but atomic reserves are not used as there is a one-entry mempool to guarantee progress. o Callers that are checking if they are non-blocking should use the helper gfpflags_allow_blocking() where possible. This is because checking for __GFP_WAIT as was done historically now can trigger false positives. Some exceptions like dm-crypt.c exist where the code intent is clearer if __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is used instead of the helper due to flag manipulations. o Callers that built their own GFP flags instead of starting with GFP_KERNEL and friends now also need to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. The first key hazard to watch out for is callers that removed __GFP_WAIT and was depending on access to atomic reserves for inconspicuous reasons. In some cases it may be appropriate for them to use __GFP_HIGH. The second key hazard is callers that assembled their own combination of GFP flags instead of starting with something like GFP_KERNEL. They may now wish to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. It's almost certainly harmless if it's missed in most cases as other activity will wake kswapd.

2015-11-05mm, slub, kasan: enable user tracking by default with KASAN=yAndrey Ryabinin1-2/+1
It's recommended to have slub's user tracking enabled with CONFIG_KASAN, because: a) User tracking disables slab merging which improves detecting out-of-bounds accesses. b) User tracking metadata acts as redzone which also improves detecting out-of-bounds accesses. c) User tracking provides additional information about object. This information helps to understand bugs. Currently it is not enabled by default. Besides recompiling the kernel with KASAN and reinstalling it, user also have to change the boot cmdline, which is not very handy. Enable slub user tracking by default with KASAN=y, since there is no good reason to not do this.
