fork: remove redundant TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE
TASK_KILLABLE already includes TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE, so there is no need to add a separate TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE.

iommu: Change kconfig around IOMMU_SVA
Linus suggested that the kconfig here is confusing: https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAHk-=wgUiAtiszwseM1p2fCJ+sC4XWQ+YN4TanFhUgvUqjr9Xw@mail.gmail.com/ Let's break it into three kconfigs controlling distinct things: - CONFIG_IOMMU_MM_DATA controls if the mm_struct has the additional fields for the IOMMU. Currently only PASID, but later patches store a struct iommu_mm_data * - CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_CPU_PASID controls if the arch needs the scheduling bit for keeping track of the ENQCMD instruction. x86 will select this if IOMMU_SVA is enabled - IOMMU_SVA controls if the IOMMU core compiles in the SVA support code for iommu driver use and the IOMMU exported API This way ARM will not enable CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_CPU_PASID Signed-off-by: Jason Gunthorpe <jgg@nvidia.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231027000525.1278806-2-tina.zhang@intel.com Signed-off-by: Joerg Roedel <jroedel@suse.de> |

arch: remove ARCH_THREAD_STACK_ALLOCATOR
Patch series "Remove unused code after IA-64 removal".
While looking into something different I noticed that there are a couple
of Kconfig options which were only selected by IA-64 and which are now
unused.
So remove them and simplify the code a bit.
This patch (of 3):
IA-64 was the only architecture which selected ARCH_THREAD_STACK_ALLOCATOR.
IA-64 was removed with commit

fork: use __mt_dup() to duplicate maple tree in dup_mmap()
In dup_mmap(), using __mt_dup() to duplicate the old maple tree and then directly replacing the entries of VMAs in the new maple tree can result in better performance. __mt_dup() uses DFS pre-order to duplicate the maple tree, so it is efficient. The average time complexity of __mt_dup() is O(n), where n is the number of VMAs. The proof of the time complexity is provided in the commit log that introduces __mt_dup(). After duplicating the maple tree, each element is traversed and replaced (ignoring the cases of deletion, which are rare). Since it is only a replacement operation for each element, this process is also O(n). Analyzing the exact time complexity of the previous algorithm is challenging because each insertion can involve appending to a node, pushing data to adjacent nodes, or even splitting nodes. The frequency of each action is difficult to calculate. The worst-case scenario for a single insertion is when the tree undergoes splitting at every level. If we consider each insertion as the worst-case scenario, we can determine that the upper bound of the time complexity is O(n*log(n)), although this is a loose upper bound. However, based on the test data, it appears that the actual time complexity is likely to be O(n). As the entire maple tree is duplicated using __mt_dup(), if dup_mmap() fails, there will be a portion of VMAs that have not been duplicated in the maple tree. To handle this, we mark the failure point with XA_ZERO_ENTRY. In exit_mmap(), if this marker is encountered, stop releasing VMAs that have not been duplicated after this point. There is a "spawn" in byte-unixbench[1], which can be used to test the performance of fork(). I modified it slightly to make it work with different number of VMAs. Below are the test results. The first row shows the number of VMAs. The second and third rows show the number of fork() calls per ten seconds, corresponding to next-20231006 and the this patchset, respectively. The test results were obtained with CPU binding to avoid scheduler load balancing that could cause unstable results. There are still some fluctuations in the test results, but at least they are better than the original performance. 21 121 221 421 821 1621 3221 6421 12821 25621 51221 112100 76261 54227 34035 20195 11112 6017 3161 1606 802 393 114558 83067 65008 45824 28751 16072 8922 4747 2436 1233 599 2.19% 8.92% 19.88% 34.64% 42.37% 44.64% 48.28% 50.17% 51.68% 53.74% 52.42% [1] https://github.com/kdlucas/byte-unixbench/tree/master Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20231027033845.90608-11-zhangpeng.00@bytedance.com Signed-off-by: Peng Zhang <zhangpeng.00@bytedance.com> Suggested-by: Liam R.

As usual, lots of singleton and doubleton patches all over the tree and
there's little I can say which isn't in the individual changelogs. The lengthier patch series are - "kdump: use generic functions to simplify crashkernel reservation in arch", from Baoquan He. This is mainly cleanups and consolidation of the "crashkernel=" kernel parameter handling. - After much discussion, David Laight's "minmax: Relax type checks in min() and max()" is here.

file: convert to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU
In recent discussions around some performance improvements in the file handling area we discussed switching the file cache to rely on SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU which allows us to get rid of call_rcu() based freeing for files completely. This is a pretty sensitive change overall but it might actually be worth doing. The main downside is the subtlety. The other one is that we should really wait for Jann's patch to land that enables KASAN to handle SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU UAFs. Currently it doesn't but a patch for this exists. With SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU objects may be freed and reused multiple times which requires a few changes. So it isn't sufficient anymore to just acquire a reference to the file in question under rcu using atomic_long_inc_not_zero() since the file might have already been recycled and someone else might have bumped the reference. In other words, callers might see reference count bumps from newer users. For this reason it is necessary to verify that the pointer is the same before and after the reference count increment. This pattern can be seen in get_file_rcu() and __files_get_rcu(). In addition, it isn't possible to access or check fields in struct file without first aqcuiring a reference on it. Not doing that was always very dodgy and it was only usable for non-pointer data in struct file. With SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU it is necessary that callers first acquire a reference under rcu or they must hold the files_lock of the fdtable. Failing to do either one of this is a bug. Thanks to Jann for pointing out that we need to ensure memory ordering between reallocations and pointer check by ensuring that all subsequent loads have a dependency on the second load in get_file_rcu() and providing a fixup that was folded into this patch.

mm: drop the assumption that VM_SHARED always implies writable
Patch series "permit write-sealed memfd read-only shared mappings", v4. The man page for fcntl() describing memfd file seals states the following about F_SEAL_WRITE:- Furthermore, trying to create new shared, writable memory-mappings via mmap(2) will also fail with EPERM. With emphasis on 'writable'. In turns out in fact that currently the kernel simply disallows all new shared memory mappings for a memfd with F_SEAL_WRITE applied, rendering this documentation inaccurate. This matters because users are therefore unable to obtain a shared mapping to a memfd after write sealing altogether, which limits their usefulness. This was reported in the discussion thread [1] originating from a bug report [2]. This is a product of both using the struct address_space->i_mmap_writable atomic counter to determine whether writing may be permitted, and the kernel adjusting this counter when any VM_SHARED mapping is performed and more generally implicitly assuming VM_SHARED implies writable. It seems sensible that we should only update this mapping if VM_MAYWRITE is specified, i.e. whether it is possible that this mapping could at any point be written to. If we do so then all we need to do to permit write seals to function as documented is to clear VM_MAYWRITE when mapping read-only. It turns out this functionality already exists for F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE - we can therefore simply adapt this logic to do the same for F_SEAL_WRITE. We then hit a chicken and egg situation in mmap_region() where the check for VM_MAYWRITE occurs before we are able to clear this flag. To work around this, perform this check after we invoke call_mmap(), with careful consideration of error paths. Thanks to Andy Lutomirski for the suggestion! [1]:https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230324133646.16101dfa666f253c4715d965@linux-foundation.org/ [2]:https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=217238 This patch (of 3): There is a general assumption that VMAs with the VM_SHARED flag set are writable. If the VM_MAYWRITE flag is not set, then this is simply not the case. Update those checks which affect the struct address_space->i_mmap_writable field to explicitly test for this by introducing [vma_]is_shared_maywrite() helper functions. This remains entirely conservative, as the lack of VM_MAYWRITE guarantees that the VMA cannot be written to.

mm: add a NO_INHERIT flag to the PR_SET_MDWE prctl
This extends the current PR_SET_MDWE prctl arg with a bit to indicate that the process doesn't want MDWE protection to propagate to children. To implement this no-inherit mode, the tag in current->mm->flags must be absent from MMF_INIT_MASK. This means that the encoding for "MDWE but without inherit" is different in the prctl than in the mm flags. This leads to a bit of bit-mangling in the prctl implementation.

arch: Remove Itanium (IA-64) architecture
The Itanium architecture is obsolete, and an informal survey [0] reveals that any residual use of Itanium hardware in production is mostly HP-UX or OpenVMS based. The use of Linux on Itanium appears to be limited to enthusiasts that occasionally boot a fresh Linux kernel to see whether things are still working as intended, and perhaps to churn out some distro packages that are rarely used in practice. None of the original companies behind Itanium still produce or support any hardware or software for the architecture, and it is listed as 'Orphaned' in the MAINTAINERS file, as apparently, none of the engineers that contributed on behalf of those companies (nor anyone else, for that matter) have been willing to support or maintain the architecture upstream or even be responsible for applying the odd fix. The Intel firmware team removed all IA-64 support from the Tianocore/EDK2 reference implementation of EFI in 2018. (Itanium is the original architecture for which EFI was developed, and the way Linux supports it deviates significantly from other architectures.) Some distros, such as Debian and Gentoo, still maintain [unofficial] ia64 ports, but many have dropped support years ago. While the argument is being made [1] that there is a 'for the common good' angle to being able to build and run existing projects such as the Grid Community Toolkit [2] on Itanium for interoperability testing, the fact remains that none of those projects are known to be deployed on Linux/ia64, and very few people actually have access to such a system in the first place. Even if there were ways imaginable in which Linux/ia64 could be put to good use today, what matters is whether anyone is actually doing that, and this does not appear to be the case. There are no emulators widely available, and so boot testing Itanium is generally infeasible for ordinary contributors. GCC still supports IA-64 but its compile farm [3] no longer has any IA-64 machines. GLIBC would like to get rid of IA-64 [4] too because it would permit some overdue code cleanups. In summary, the benefits to the ecosystem of having IA-64 be part of it are mostly theoretical, whereas the maintenance overhead of keeping it supported is real. So let's rip off the band aid, and remove the IA-64 arch code entirely. This follows the timeline proposed by the Debian/ia64 maintainer [5], which removes support in a controlled manner, leaving IA-64 in a known good state in the most recent LTS release. Other projects will follow once the kernel support is removed.

kernel/fork: beware of __put_task_struct() calling context
Under PREEMPT_RT, __put_task_struct() indirectly acquires sleeping locks. Therefore, it can't be called from an non-preemptible context. One practical example is splat inside inactive_task_timer(), which is called in a interrupt context: CPU: 1 PID: 2848 Comm: life Kdump: loaded Tainted: G W --------- Hardware name: HP ProLiant DL388p Gen8, BIOS P70 07/15/2012 Call Trace: dump_stack_lvl+0x57/0x7d mark_lock_irq.cold+0x33/0xba mark_lock+0x1e7/0x400 mark_usage+0x11d/0x140 __lock_acquire+0x30d/0x930 lock_acquire.part.0+0x9c/0x210 rt_spin_lock+0x27/0xe0 refill_obj_stock+0x3d/0x3a0 kmem_cache_free+0x357/0x560 inactive_task_timer+0x1ad/0x340 __run_hrtimer+0x8a/0x1a0 __hrtimer_run_queues+0x91/0x130 hrtimer_interrupt+0x10f/0x220 __sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt+0x7b/0xd0 sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt+0x4f/0xd0 asm_sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt+0x12/0x20 RIP: 0033:0x7fff196bf6f5 Instead of calling __put_task_struct() directly, we defer it using call_rcu(). A more natural approach would use a workqueue, but since in PREEMPT_RT, we can't allocate dynamic memory from atomic context, the code would become more complex because we would need to put the work_struct instance in the task_struct and initialize it when we allocate a new task_struct.

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.

bpf: Fix UAF in task local storage
When task local storage was generalized for tracing programs, the
bpf_task_local_storage callback was moved from a BPF LSM hook
callback for security_task_free LSM hook to it's own callback. But a
failure case in bad_fork_cleanup_security was missed which, when
triggered, led to a dangling task owner pointer and a subsequent
use-after-free. Move the bpf_task_storage_free to the very end of
free_task to handle all failure cases.
This issue was noticed when a BPF LSM program was attached to the
task_alloc hook on a kernel with KASAN enabled. The program used
bpf_task_storage_get to copy the task local storage from the current
task to the new task being created.

fork, vhost: Use CLONE_THREAD to fix freezer/ps regression
When switching from kthreads to vhost_tasks two bugs were added:
1. The vhost worker tasks's now show up as processes so scripts doing
ps or ps a would not incorrectly detect the vhost task as another
process. 2. kthreads disabled freeze by setting PF_NOFREEZE, but
vhost tasks's didn't disable or add support for them.
To fix both bugs, this switches the vhost task to be thread in the
process that does the VHOST_SET_OWNER ioctl, and has vhost_worker call
get_signal to support SIGKILL/SIGSTOP and freeze signals. Note that
SIGKILL/STOP support is required because CLONE_THREAD requires
CLONE_SIGHAND which requires those 2 signals to be supported.
This is a modified version of the patch written by Mike Christie
<michael.christie@oracle.com> which was a modified version of patch
originally written by Linus.
Much of what depended upon PF_IO_WORKER now depends on PF_USER_WORKER.
Including ignoring signals, setting up the register state, and having
get_signal return instead of calling do_group_exit.
Tidied up the vhost_task abstraction so that the definition of
vhost_task only needs to be visible inside of vhost_task.c. Making
it easier to review the code and tell what needs to be done where.
As part of this the main loop has been moved from vhost_worker into
vhost_task_fn. vhost_worker now returns true if work was done.
The main loop has been updated to call get_signal which handles
SIGSTOP, freezing, and collects the message that tells the thread to
exit as part of process exit. This collection clears
__fatal_signal_pending. This collection is not guaranteed to
clear signal_pending() so clear that explicitly so the schedule()
sleeps.
For now the vhost thread continues to exist and run work until the
last file descriptor is closed and the release function is called as
part of freeing struct file. To avoid hangs in the coredump
rendezvous and when killing threads in a multi-threaded exec. The
coredump code and de_thread have been modified to ignore vhost threads.
Remvoing the special case for exec appears to require teaching
vhost_dev_flush how to directly complete transactions in case
the vhost thread is no longer running.
Removing the special case for coredump rendezvous requires either the
above fix needed for exec or moving the coredump rendezvous into
get_signal.

tracing updates for 6.4:
- User events are finally ready! After lots of collaboration between various parties, we finally locked down on a stable interface for user events that can also work with user space only tracing. This is implemented by telling the kernel (or user space library, but that part is user space only and not part of this patch set), where the variable is that the application uses to know if something is listening to the trace. There's also an interface to tell the kernel about these events, which will show up in the /sys/kernel/tracing/events/user_events/ directory, where it can be enabled. When it's enabled, the kernel will update the variable, to tell the application to start writing to the kernel. See https://lwn.net/Articles/927595/ - Cleaned up the direct trampolines code to simplify arm64 addition of direct trampolines. Direct trampolines use the ftrace interface but instead of jumping to the ftrace trampoline, applications (mostly BPF) can register their own trampoline for performance reasons. - Some updates to the fprobe infrastructure. fprobes are more efficient than kprobes, as it does not need to save all the registers that kprobes on ftrace do. More work needs to be done before the fprobes will be exposed as dynamic events. - More updates to references to the obsolete path of /sys/kernel/debug/tracing for the new /sys/kernel/tracing path. - Add a seq_buf_do_printk() helper to seq_bufs, to print a large buffer line by line instead of all at once. There's users in production kernels that have a large data dump that originally used printk() directly, but the data dump was larger than what printk() allowed as a single print. Using seq_buf() to do the printing fixes that. - Add /sys/kernel/tracing/touched_functions that shows all functions that was every traced by ftrace or a direct trampoline. This is used for debugging issues where a traced function could have caused a crash by a bpf program or live patching. - Add a "fields" option that is similar to "raw" but outputs the fields of the events. It's easier to read by humans. - Some minor fixes and clean ups. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIoEABYIADIWIQRRSw7ePDh/lE+zeZMp5XQQmuv6qgUCZEr36xQccm9zdGVkdEBn b29kbWlzLm9yZwAKCRAp5XQQmuv6quZHAQCzuqnn2S8DsPd3Sy1vKIYaj0uajW5D Kz1oUJH4F0H7kgEA8XwXkdtfKpOXWc/ZH4LWfL7Orx2wJZJQMV9dVqEPDAE= =w0Z1 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'trace-v6.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - User events are finally ready!

Such user workers will run with the same credentials as the userspace process they were created from providing stronger security and accounting guarantees than the traditional override_creds() approach ever could've hoped for. The original work was heavily based and optimzed for the needs of io_uring which was the first user. However, as it quickly turned out the ability to create user workers inherting properties from a userspace process is generally useful. The vhost subsystem currently creates workers using the kthread api. The consequences of using the kthread api are that RLIMITs don't work correctly as they are inherited from khtreadd. This leads to bugs where more workers are created than would be allowed by the RLIMITs of the userspace process in lieu of which workers are created. Problems like this disappear with user workers created from the userspace processes for which they perform the work. In addition, providing this api allows vhost to remove additional complexity. For example, cgroup and mm sharing will just work out of the box with user workers based on the relevant userspace process instead of manually ensuring the correct cgroup and mm contexts are used. So the vhost subsystem should simply be made to use the same mechanism as io_uring. To this end the original mechanism used for create_io_thread() is generalized into user workers: - Introduce PF_USER_WORKER as a generic indicator that a given task is a user worker, i.e., a kernel task that was created from a userspace process. Now a PF_IO_WORKER thread is just a specialized version of PF_USER_WORKER. So io_uring io workers raise both flags. - Make copy_process() available to core kernel code - Extend struct kernel_clone_args with the following bitfields allowing to indicate to copy_process(): - to create a user worker (raise PF_USER_WORKER) - to not inherit any files from the userspace process - to ignore signals After all generic changes are in place the vhost subsystem implements a new dedicated vhost api based on user workers. Finally, vhost is switched to rely on the new api moving it off of kthreads.

sched: Fix performance regression introduced by mm_cid
Introduce per-mm/cpu current concurrency id (mm_cid) to fix a PostgreSQL
sysbench regression reported by Aaron Lu.
Keep track of the currently allocated mm_cid for each mm/cpu rather than
freeing them immediately on context switch. This eliminates most atomic
operations when context switching back and forth between threads
belonging to different memory spaces in multi-threaded scenarios (many
processes, each with many threads). The per-mm/per-cpu mm_cid values are
serialized by their respective runqueue locks.
Thread migration is handled by introducing invocation to
sched_mm_cid_migrate_to() (with destination runqueue lock held) in
activate_task() for migrating tasks. If the destination cpu's mm_cid is
unset, and if the source runqueue is not actively using its mm_cid, then
the source cpu's mm_cid is moved to the destination cpu on migration.
Introduce a task-work executed periodically, similarly to NUMA work,
which delays reclaim of cid values when they are unused for a period of
time.
Keep track of the allocation time for each per-cpu cid, and let the task
work clear them when they are observed to be older than
SCHED_MM_CID_PERIOD_NS and unused. This task work also clears all
mm_cids which are greater or equal to the Hamming weight of the mm
cidmask to keep concurrency ids compact.
Because we want to ensure the mm_cid converges towards the smaller
values as migrations happen, the prior optimization that was done when
context switching between threads belonging to the same mm is removed,
because it could delay the lazy release of the destination runqueue
mm_cid after it has been replaced by a migration. Removing this prior
optimization is not an issue performance-wise because the introduced
per-mm/per-cpu mm_cid tracking also covers this more specific case.

sched/numa: apply the scan delay to every new vma
Pach series "sched/numa: Enhance vma scanning", v3. The patchset proposes one of the enhancements to numa vma scanning suggested by Mel. This is continuation of [3]. Reposting the rebased patchset to akpm mm-unstable tree (March 1) Existing mechanism of scan period involves, scan period derived from per-thread stats. Process Adaptive autoNUMA [1] proposed to gather NUMA fault stats at per-process level to capture aplication behaviour better. During that course of discussion, Mel proposed several ideas to enhance current numa balancing. One of the suggestion was below Track what threads access a VMA. The suggestion was to use an unsigned long pid_mask and use the lower bits to tag approximately what threads access a VMA. Skip VMAs that did not trap a fault. This would be approximate because of PID collisions but would reduce scanning of areas the thread is not interested in. The above suggestion intends not to penalize threads that has no interest in the vma, thus reduce scanning overhead. V3 changes are mostly based on PeterZ comments (details below in changes) Summary of patchset: Current patchset implements: 1. Delay the vma scanning logic for newly created VMA's so that additional overhead of scanning is not incurred for short lived tasks (implementation by Mel) 2. Store the information of tasks accessing VMA in 2 windows. It is regularly cleared in (4*sysctl_numa_balancing_scan_delay) interval. The above time is derived from experimenting (Suggested by PeterZ) to balance between frequent clearing vs obsolete access data 3. hash_32 used to encode task index accessing VMA information 4. VMA's acess information is used to skip scanning for the tasks which had not accessed VMA Changes since V2: patch1: - Renaming of structure, macro to function, - Add explanation to heuristics - Adding more details from result (PeterZ) Patch2: - Usage of test and set bit (PeterZ) - Move storing access PID info to numa_migrate_prep() - Add a note on fainess among tasks allowed to scan (PeterZ) Patch3: - Maintain two windows of access PID information (PeterZ supported implementation and Gave idea to extend to N if needed) Patch4: - Apply hash_32 function to track VMA accessing PIDs (PeterZ) Changes since RFC V1: - Include Mel's vma scan delay patch - Change the accessing pid store logic (Thanks Mel) - Fencing structure / code to NUMA_BALANCING (David, Mel) - Adding clearing access PID logic (Mel) - Descriptive change log ( Mike Rapoport) Things to ponder over: ========================================== - Improvement to clearing accessing PIDs logic (discussed in-detail in patch3 itself (Done in this patchset by implementing 2 window history) - Current scan period is not changed in the patchset, so we do see frequent tries to scan. Relaxing scan period dynamically could improve results further.

mm: separate vma->lock from vm_area_struct
vma->lock being part of the vm_area_struct causes performance regression during page faults because during contention its count and owner fields are constantly updated and having other parts of vm_area_struct used during page fault handling next to them causes constant cache line bouncing. Fix that by moving the lock outside of the vm_area_struct. All attempts to keep vma->lock inside vm_area_struct in a separate cache line still produce performance regression especially on NUMA machines. Smallest regression was achieved when lock is placed in the fourth cache line but that bloats vm_area_struct to 256 bytes. Considering performance and memory impact, separate lock looks like the best option. It increases memory footprint of each VMA but that can be optimized later if the new size causes issues. Note that after this change vma_init() does not allocate or initialize vma->lock anymore. A number of drivers allocate a pseudo VMA on the stack but they never use the VMA's lock, therefore it does not need to be allocated. The future drivers which might need the VMA lock should use vm_area_alloc()/vm_area_free() to allocate the VMA.

mm/mmap: free vm_area_struct without call_rcu in exit_mmap
call_rcu() can take a long time when callback offloading is enabled. Its use in the vm_area_free can cause regressions in the exit path when multiple VMAs are being freed. Because exit_mmap() is called only after the last mm user drops its refcount, the page fault handlers can't be racing with it. Any other possible user like oom-reaper or process_mrelease are already synchronized using mmap_lock. Therefore exit_mmap() can free VMAs directly, without the use of call_rcu(). Expose __vm_area_free() and use it from exit_mmap() to avoid possible call_rcu() floods and performance regressions caused by it.

mm: add per-VMA lock and helper functions to control it
Introduce per-VMA locking. The lock implementation relies on a per-vma and per-mm sequence counters to note exclusive locking: - read lock - (implemented by vma_start_read) requires the vma (vm_lock_seq) and mm (mm_lock_seq) sequence counters to differ. If they match then there must be a vma exclusive lock held somewhere. - read unlock - (implemented by vma_end_read) is a trivial vma->lock unlock. - write lock - (vma_start_write) requires the mmap_lock to be held exclusively and the current mm counter is assigned to the vma counter. This will allow multiple vmas to be locked under a single mmap_lock write lock (e.g. during vma merging). The vma counter is modified under exclusive vma lock. - write unlock - (vma_end_write_all) is a batch release of all vma locks held. It doesn't pair with a specific vma_start_write! It is done before exclusive mmap_lock is released by incrementing mm sequence counter (mm_lock_seq). - write downgrade - if the mmap_lock is downgraded to the read lock, all vma write locks are released as well (effectivelly same as write unlock).

mm: enable maple tree RCU mode by default
Use the maple tree in RCU mode for VMA tracking.
The maple tree tracks the stack and is able to update the pivot
(lower/upper boundary) in-place to allow the page fault handler to write
to the tree while holding just the mmap read lock. This is safe as the
writes to the stack have a guard VMA which ensures there will always be a
NULL in the direction of the growth and thus will only update a pivot.
It is possible, but not recommended, to have VMAs that grow up/down
without guard VMAs. syzbot has constructed a testcase which sets up a VMA
to grow and consume the empty space. Overwriting the entire NULL entry
causes the tree to be altered in a way that is not safe for concurrent
readers; the readers may see a node being rewritten or one that does not
match the maple state they are using.

tracing/user_events: Track fork/exec/exit for mm lifetime
During tracefs discussions it was decided instead of requiring a mapping within a user-process to track the lifetime of memory descriptors we should hook the appropriate calls. Do this by adding the minimal stubs required for task fork, exec, and exit. Currently this is just a NOP. Future patches will implement these calls fully.

lazy tlb: shoot lazies, non-refcounting lazy tlb mm reference handling scheme
On big systems, the mm refcount can become highly contented when doing a lot of context switching with threaded applications. user<->idle switch is one of the important cases. Abandoning lazy tlb entirely slows this switching down quite a bit in the common uncontended case, so that is not viable. Implement a scheme where lazy tlb mm references do not contribute to the refcount, instead they get explicitly removed when the refcount reaches zero. The final mmdrop() sends IPIs to all CPUs in the mm_cpumask and they switch away from this mm to init_mm if it was being used as the lazy tlb mm. Enabling the shoot lazies option therefore requires that the arch ensures that mm_cpumask contains all CPUs that could possibly be using mm. A DEBUG_VM option IPIs every CPU in the system after this to ensure there are no references remaining before the mm is freed. Shootdown IPIs cost could be an issue, but they have not been observed to be a serious problem with this scheme, because short-lived processes tend not to migrate CPUs much, therefore they don't get much chance to leave lazy tlb mm references on remote CPUs. There are a lot of options to reduce them if necessary, described in comments. The near-worst-case can be benchmarked with will-it-scale: context_switch1_threads -t $(($(nproc) / 2)) This will create nproc threads (nproc / 2 switching pairs) all sharing the same mm that spread over all CPUs so each CPU does thread->idle->thread switching. [ Rik came up with basically the same idea a few years ago, so credit to him for that. ] Link: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20230118080011.2258375-1-npiggin@gmail.com/ Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20180728215357.3249-11-riel@surriel.com/ Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230203071837.1136453-5-npiggin@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com> Acked-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org> Cc: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Cc: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu> Cc: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com> Cc: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Cc: Nadav Amit <nadav.amit@gmail.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Cc: Will Deacon <will@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> |

fork: add kernel_clone_args flag to not dup/clone files
Each vhost device gets a thread that is used to perform IO and management operations. Instead of a thread that is accessing a device, the thread is part of the device, so when it creates a thread using a helper based on copy_process we can't dup or clone the parent's files/FDS because it would do an extra increment on ourself. Later, when we do: Qemu process exits: do_exit -> exit_files -> put_files_struct -> close_files we would leak the device's resources because of that extra refcount on the fd or file_struct. This patch adds a no_files option so these worker threads can prevent taking an extra refcount on themselves.

kernel/fork: convert vma assignment to a memcpy
Patch series "introduce vm_flags modifier functions", v4. This patchset was originally published as a part of per-VMA locking [1] and was split after suggestion that it's viable on its own and to facilitate the review process. It is now a preprequisite for the next version of per-VMA lock patchset, which reuses vm_flags modifier functions to lock the VMA when vm_flags are being updated. VMA vm_flags modifications are usually done under exclusive mmap_lock protection because this attrubute affects other decisions like VMA merging or splitting and races should be prevented.

sched: Introduce per-memory-map concurrency ID
This feature allows the scheduler to expose a per-memory map concurrency ID to user-space. This concurrency ID is within the possible cpus range, and is temporarily (and uniquely) assigned while threads are actively running within a memory map. If a memory map has fewer threads than cores, or is limited to run on few cores concurrently through sched affinity or cgroup cpusets, the concurrency IDs will be values close to 0, thus allowing efficient use of user-space memory for per-cpu data structures. This feature is meant to be exposed by a new rseq thread area field. The primary purpose of this feature is to do the heavy-lifting needed by memory allocators to allow them to use per-cpu data structures efficiently in the following situations: - Single-threaded applications, - Multi-threaded applications on large systems (many cores) with limited cpu affinity mask, - Multi-threaded applications on large systems (many cores) with restricted cgroup cpuset per container. One of the key concern from scheduler maintainers is the overhead associated with additional spin locks or atomic operations in the scheduler fast-path. This is why the following optimization is implemented. On context switch between threads belonging to the same memory map, transfer the mm_cid from prev to next without any atomic ops. This takes care of use-cases involving frequent context switch between threads belonging to the same memory map. Additional optimizations can be done if the spin locks added when context switching between threads belonging to different memory maps end up being a performance bottleneck. Those are left out of this patch though. A performance impact would have to be clearly demonstrated to justify the added complexity. The credit goes to Paul Turner (Google) for the original virtual cpu id idea. This feature is implemented based on the discussions with Paul Turner and Peter Oskolkov (Google), but I took the liberty to implement scheduler fast-path optimizations and my own NUMA-awareness scheme. The rumor has it that Google have been running a rseq vcpu_id extension internally in production for a year. The tcmalloc source code indeed has comments hinting at a vcpu_id prototype extension to the rseq system call [1]. The following benchmarks do not show any significant overhead added to the scheduler context switch by this feature: * perf bench sched messaging (process) Baseline: 86.5±0.3 ms With mm_cid: 86.7±2.6 ms * perf bench sched messaging (threaded) Baseline: 84.3±3.0 ms With mm_cid: 84.7±2.6 ms * hackbench (process) Baseline: 82.9±2.7 ms With mm_cid: 82.9±2.9 ms * hackbench (threaded) Baseline: 85.2±2.6 ms With mm_cid: 84.4±2.9 ms [1] https://github.com/google/tcmalloc/blob/master/tcmalloc/internal/linux_syscall_support.h#L26 Signed-off-by: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20221122203932.231377-8-mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com |

I'll have a "late" 6.1-rc1 pull for you that removes the now unused prandom_u32_max() function, just in case any other trees add a new use case of it that needs to converted. According to linux-next, there may be two trivial cases of prandom_u32_max() reintroductions that are fixable with a 's/.../.../'. So I'll have for you a final conversion patch doing that alongside the removal patch during the second week. This is a treewide change that touches many files throughout. - More consistent use of get_random_canary(). - Updates to comments, documentation, tests, headers, and simplification in configuration. - The arch_get_random*_early() abstraction was only used by arm64 and wasn't entirely useful, so this has been replaced by code that works in all relevant contexts. - The kernel will use and manage random seeds in non-volatile EFI variables, refreshing a variable with a fresh seed when the RNG is initialized. The RNG GUID namespace is then hidden from efivarfs to prevent accidental leakage. These changes are split into random.c infrastructure code used in the EFI subsystem, in this pull request, and related support inside of EFISTUB, in Ard's EFI tree. These are co-dependent for full functionality, but the order of merging doesn't matter. - Part of the infrastructure added for the EFI support is also used for an improvement to the way vsprintf initializes its siphash key, replacing an sleep loop wart. - The hardware RNG framework now always calls its correct random.c input function, add_hwgenerator_randomness(), rather than sometimes going through helpers better suited for other cases. - The add_latent_entropy() function has long been called from the fork handler, but is a no-op when the latent entropy gcc plugin isn't used, which is fine for the purposes of latent entropy. But it was missing out on the cycle counter that was also being mixed in beside the latent entropy variable. So now, if the latent entropy gcc plugin isn't enabled, add_latent_entropy() will expand to a call to add_device_randomness(NULL, 0), which adds a cycle counter, without the absent latent entropy variable. - The RNG is now reseeded from a delayed worker, rather than on demand when used. Always running from a worker allows it to make use of the CPU RNG on platforms like S390x, whose instructions are too slow to do so from interrupts. It also has the effect of adding in new inputs more frequently with more regularity, amounting to a long term transcript of random values. Plus, it helps a bit with the upcoming vDSO implementation (which isn't yet ready for 6.2). - The jitter entropy algorithm now tries to execute on many different CPUs, round-robining, in hopes of hitting even more memory latencies and other unpredictable effects. It also will mix in a cycle counter when the entropy timer fires, in addition to being mixed in from the main loop, to account more explicitly for fluctuations in that timer firing. And the state it touches is now kept within the same cache line, so that it's assured that the different execution contexts will cause latencies. * tag 'random-6.2-rc1-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/crng/random: (23 commits) random: include <linux/once.h> in the right header random: align entropy_timer_state to cache line random: mix in cycle counter when jitter timer fires random: spread out jitter callback to different CPUs random: remove extraneous period and add a missing one in comments efi: random: refresh non-volatile random seed when RNG is initialized vsprintf: initialize siphash key using notifier random: add back async readiness notifier random: reseed in delayed work rather than on-demand random: always mix cycle counter in add_latent_entropy() hw_random: use add_hwgenerator_randomness() for early entropy random: modernize documentation comment on get_random_bytes() random: adjust comment to account for removed function random: remove early archrandom abstraction random: use random.trust_{bootloader,cpu} command line option only stackprotector: actually use get_random_canary() stackprotector: move get_random_canary() into stackprotector.h treewide: use get_random_u32_inclusive() when possible treewide: use get_random_u32_{above,below}() instead of manual loop treewide: use get_random_u32_below() instead of deprecated function ... |

seccomp: Move copy_seccomp() to no failure path.
Our syzbot instance reported memory leaks in do_seccomp() [0], similar to the report [1]. It shows that we miss freeing struct seccomp_filter and some objects included in it. We can reproduce the issue with the program below [2] which calls one seccomp() and two clone() syscalls. The first clone()d child exits earlier than its parent and sends a signal to kill it during the second clone(), more precisely before the fatal_signal_pending() test in copy_process(). When the parent receives the signal, it has to destroy the embryonic process and return -EINTR to user space. In the failure path, we have to call seccomp_filter_release() to decrement the filter's refcount. Initially, we called it in free_task() called from the failure path, but the commit |

percpu_counter: add percpu_counter_sum_all interface
The percpu_counter is used for scenarios where performance is more important than the accuracy. For percpu_counter users, who want more accurate information in their slowpath, percpu_counter_sum is provided which traverses all the online CPUs to accumulate the data. The reason it only needs to traverse online CPUs is because percpu_counter does implement CPU offline callback which syncs the local data of the offlined CPU. However there is a small race window between the online CPUs traversal of percpu_counter_sum and the CPU offline callback. The offline callback has to traverse all the percpu_counters on the system to flush the CPU local data which can be a lot. During that time, the CPU which is going offline has already been published as offline to all the readers. So, as the offline callback is running, percpu_counter_sum can be called for one counter which has some state on the CPU going offline. Since percpu_counter_sum only traverses online CPUs, it will skip that specific CPU and the offline callback might not have flushed the state for that specific percpu_counter on that offlined CPU. Normally this is not an issue because percpu_counter users can deal with some inaccuracy for small time window. However a new user i.e. mm_struct on the cleanup path wants to check the exact state of the percpu_counter through check_mm(). For such users, this patch introduces percpu_counter_sum_all() which traverses all possible CPUs and it is used in fork.c:check_mm() to avoid the potential race. This issue is exposed by the later patch "mm: convert mm's rss stats into percpu_counter".

mm: convert mm's rss stats into percpu_counter
Currently mm_struct maintains rss_stats which are updated on page fault and the unmapping codepaths. For page fault codepath the updates are cached per thread with the batch of TASK_RSS_EVENTS_THRESH which is 64. The reason for caching is performance for multithreaded applications otherwise the rss_stats updates may become hotspot for such applications. However this optimization comes with the cost of error margin in the rss stats. The rss_stats for applications with large number of threads can be very skewed. At worst the error margin is (nr_threads * 64) and we have a lot of applications with 100s of threads, so the error margin can be very high. Internally we had to reduce TASK_RSS_EVENTS_THRESH to 32. Recently we started seeing the unbounded errors for rss_stats for specific applications which use TCP rx0cp. It seems like vm_insert_pages() codepath does not sync rss_stats at all. This patch converts the rss_stats into percpu_counter to convert the error margin from (nr_threads * 64) to approximately (nr_cpus ^ 2). However this conversion enable us to get the accurate stats for situations where accuracy is more important than the cpu cost. This patch does not make such tradeoffs - we can just use percpu_counter_add_local() for the updates and percpu_counter_sum() (or percpu_counter_sync() + percpu_counter_read) for the readers. At the moment the readers are either procfs interface, oom_killer and memory reclaim which I think are not performance critical and should be ok with slow read. However I think we can make that change in a separate patch.

stackprotector: move get_random_canary() into stackprotector.h
This has nothing to do with random.c and everything to do with stack protectors. Yes, it uses randomness. But many things use randomness. random.h and random.c are concerned with the generation of randomness, not with each and every use. So move this function into the more specific stackprotector.h file where it belongs. Acked-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Signed-off-by: Jason A. Donenfeld <Jason@zx2c4.com> |

fs/exec: switch timens when a task gets a new mm
Changing a time namespace requires remapping a vvar page, so we don't want
to allow doing that if any other tasks can use the same mm.
Currently, we install a time namespace when a task is created with a new
vm. exec() is another case when a task gets a new mm and so it can switch
a time namespace safely, but it isn't handled now.
One more issue of the current interface is that clone() with CLONE_VM isn't
allowed if the current task has unshared a time namespace
(timens_for_children doesn't match the current timens).
Both these issues make some inconvenience for users. For example, Alexey
and Florian reported that posix_spawn() uses vfork+exec and this pattern
doesn't work with time namespaces due to the both described issues.
LXC needed to workaround the exec() issue by calling setns.

After the ucount rlimit code was merged a bunch of small but siginificant bugs were found and fixed. At the time it was realized that part of the problem was that while the ucount rlimits were very similar to the oridinary ucounts (in being nested counts with limits) the semantics were slightly different and the code would be less error prone if there was less sharing.

hugetlb: add vma based lock for pmd sharing
Allocate a new hugetlb_vma_lock structure and hang off vm_private_data for synchronization use by vmas that could be involved in pmd sharing. This data structure contains a rw semaphore that is the primary tool used for synchronization. This new structure is ref counted, so that it can exist when NOT attached to a vma. This is only helpful in resolving lock ordering issues where code may need to obtain the vma_lock while there are no guarantees the vma may go away. By obtaining a ref on the structure, it can be guaranteed that at least the rw semaphore will not go away. Only add infrastructure for the new lock here. Actual use will be added in subsequent patches.

kernel/fork: use maple tree for dup_mmap() during forking
The maple tree was already tracking VMAs in this function by an earlier commit, but the rbtree iterator was being used to iterate the list. Change the iterator to use a maple tree native iterator and switch to the maple tree advanced API to avoid multiple walks of the tree during insert operations. Unexport the now-unused vma_store() function. For performance reasons we bulk allocate the maple tree nodes. The node calculations are done internally to the tree and use the VMA count and assume the worst-case node requirements. The VM_DONT_COPY flag does not allow for the most efficient copy method of the tree and so a bulk loading algorithm is used.

mm: start tracking VMAs with maple tree
Start tracking the VMAs with the new maple tree structure in parallel with the rb_tree. Add debug and trace events for maple tree operations and duplicate the rb_tree that is created on forks into the maple tree. The maple tree is added to the mm_struct including the mm_init struct, added support in required mm/mmap functions, added tracking in kernel/fork for process forking, and used to find the unmapped_area and checked against what the rbtree finds. This also moves the mmap_lock() in exit_mmap() since the oom reaper call does walk the VMAs. Otherwise lockdep will be unhappy if oom happens. When splitting a vma fails due to allocations of the maple tree nodes, the error path in __split_vma() calls new->vm_ops->close(new). The page accounting for hugetlb is actually in the close() operation, so it accounts for the removal of 1/2 of the VMA which was not adjusted. This results in a negative exit value. To avoid the negative charge, set vm_start = vm_end and vm_pgoff = 0. There is also a potential accounting issue in special mappings from insert_vm_struct() failing to allocate, so reverse the charge there in the failure scenario.

mm: multi-gen LRU: support page table walks
To further exploit spatial locality, the aging prefers to walk page tables to search for young PTEs and promote hot pages. A kill switch will be added in the next patch to disable this behavior. When disabled, the aging relies on the rmap only. NB: this behavior has nothing similar with the page table scanning in the 2.4 kernel [1], which searches page tables for old PTEs, adds cold pages to swapcache and unmaps them. To avoid confusion, the term "iteration" specifically means the traversal of an entire mm_struct list; the term "walk" will be applied to page tables and the rmap, as usual. An mm_struct list is maintained for each memcg, and an mm_struct follows its owner task to the new memcg when this task is migrated. Given an lruvec, the aging iterates lruvec_memcg()->mm_list and calls walk_page_range() with each mm_struct on this list to promote hot pages before it increments max_seq. When multiple page table walkers iterate the same list, each of them gets a unique mm_struct; therefore they can run concurrently. Page table walkers ignore any misplaced pages, e.g., if an mm_struct was migrated, pages it left in the previous memcg will not be promoted when its current memcg is under reclaim. Similarly, page table walkers will not promote pages from nodes other than the one under reclaim. This patch uses the following optimizations when walking page tables: 1. It tracks the usage of mm_struct's between context switches so that page table walkers can skip processes that have been sleeping since the last iteration. 2. It uses generational Bloom filters to record populated branches so that page table walkers can reduce their search space based on the query results, e.g., to skip page tables containing mostly holes or misplaced pages. 3. It takes advantage of the accessed bit in non-leaf PMD entries when CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_NONLEAF_PMD_YOUNG=y. 4. It does not zigzag between a PGD table and the same PMD table spanning multiple VMAs. IOW, it finishes all the VMAs within the range of the same PMD table before it returns to a PGD table. This improves the cache performance for workloads that have large numbers of tiny VMAs [2], especially when CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS=5.

freezer,sched: Rewrite core freezer logic
Rewrite the core freezer to behave better wrt thawing and be simpler in general. By replacing PF_FROZEN with TASK_FROZEN, a special block state, it is ensured frozen tasks stay frozen until thawed and don't randomly wake up early, as is currently possible. As such, it does away with PF_FROZEN and PF_FREEZER_SKIP, freeing up two PF_flags (yay!). Specifically; the current scheme works a little like: freezer_do_not_count(); schedule(); freezer_count(); And either the task is blocked, or it lands in try_to_freezer() through freezer_count(). Now, when it is blocked, the freezer considers it frozen and continues. However, on thawing, once pm_freezing is cleared, freezer_count() stops working, and any random/spurious wakeup will let a task run before its time. That is, thawing tries to thaw things in explicit order; kernel threads and workqueues before doing bringing SMP back before userspace etc.. However due to the above mentioned races it is entirely possible for userspace tasks to thaw (by accident) before SMP is back. This can be a fatal problem in asymmetric ISA architectures (eg ARMv9) where the userspace task requires a special CPU to run. As said; replace this with a special task state TASK_FROZEN and add the following state transitions: TASK_FREEZABLE -> TASK_FROZEN __TASK_STOPPED -> TASK_FROZEN __TASK_TRACED -> TASK_FROZEN The new TASK_FREEZABLE can be set on any state part of TASK_NORMAL (IOW. TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE and TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE) -- any such state is already required to deal with spurious wakeups and the freezer causes one such when thawing the task (since the original state is lost). The special __TASK_{STOPPED,TRACED} states *can* be restored since their canonical state is in ->jobctl. With this, frozen tasks need an explicit TASK_FROZEN wakeup and are free of undue (early / spurious) wakeups.

IB/core: Fix a nested dead lock as part of ODP flow
Fix a nested dead lock as part of ODP flow by using mmput_async().
From the below call trace [1] can see that calling mmput() once we have
the umem_odp->umem_mutex locked as required by
ib_umem_odp_map_dma_and_lock() might trigger in the same task the
exit_mmap()->__mmu_notifier_release()->mlx5_ib_invalidate_range() which
may dead lock when trying to lock the same mutex.
Moving to use mmput_async() will solve the problem as the above
exit_mmap() flow will be called in other task and will be executed once
the lock will be available.

- Runtime verification infrastructure This is the biggest change for this pull request. It introduces the runtime verification that is necessary for running Linux on safety critical systems. It allows for deterministic automata models to be inserted into the kernel that will attach to tracepoints, where the information on these tracepoints will move the model from state to state. If a state is encountered that does not belong to the model, it will then activate a given reactor, that could just inform the user or even panic the kernel (for which safety critical systems will detect and can recover from). - Two monitor models are also added: Wakeup In Preemptive (WIP - not to be confused with "work in progress"), and Wakeup While Not Running (WWNR). - Added __vstring() helper to the TRACE_EVENT() macro to replace several vsnprintf() usages that were all doing it wrong. - eprobes now can have their event autogenerated when the event name is left off. - The rest is various cleanups and fixes. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIoEABYIADIWIQRRSw7ePDh/lE+zeZMp5XQQmuv6qgUCYu0yzRQccm9zdGVkdEBn b29kbWlzLm9yZwAKCRAp5XQQmuv6qj4HAP4tQtV55rjj4DQ5XIXmtI3/64PmyRSJ +y4DEXi1UvEUCQD/QAuQfWoT/7gh35ltkfeS4t3ockzy14rrkP5drZigiQA= =kEtM -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'trace-v6.0' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - Runtime verification infrastructure This is the biggest change here.

RCU pull request for v5.20 (or whatever)
This pull request contains the following branches: doc.2022.06.21a: Documentation updates. fixes.2022.07.19a: Miscellaneous fixes. nocb.2022.07.19a: Callback-offload updates, perhaps most notably a new RCU_NOCB_CPU_DEFAULT_ALL Kconfig option that causes all CPUs to be offloaded at boot time, regardless of kernel boot parameters. This is useful to battery-powered systems such as ChromeOS and Android. In addition, a new RCU_NOCB_CPU_CB_BOOST kernel boot parameter prevents offloaded callbacks from interfering with real-time workloads and with energy-efficiency mechanisms. poll.2022.07.21a: Polled grace-period updates, perhaps most notably making these APIs account for both normal and expedited grace periods. rcu-tasks.2022.06.21a: Tasks RCU updates, perhaps most notably reducing the CPU overhead of RCU tasks trace grace periods by more than a factor of two on a system with 15,000 tasks.

rv/include: Add deterministic automata monitor definition via C macros
In Linux terms, the runtime verification monitors are encapsulated inside the "RV monitor" abstraction. The "RV monitor" includes a set of instances of the monitor (per-cpu monitor, per-task monitor, and so on), the helper functions that glue the monitor to the system reference model, and the trace output as a reaction for event parsing and exceptions, as depicted below: Linux +----- RV Monitor ----------------------------------+ Formal Realm | | Realm +-------------------+ +----------------+ +-----------------+ | Linux kernel | | Monitor | | Reference | | Tracing | -> | Instance(s) | <- | Model | | (instrumentation) | | (verification) | | (specification) | +-------------------+ +----------------+ +-----------------+ | | | | V | | +----------+ | | | Reaction | | | +--+--+--+-+ | | | | | | | | | +-> trace output ? | +------------------------|--|----------------------+ | +----> panic ? +-------> <user-specified> Add the rv/da_monitor.h, enabling automatic code generation for the *Monitor Instance(s)* using C macros, and code to support it. The benefits of the usage of macro for monitor synthesis are 3-fold as it: - Reduces the code duplication; - Facilitates the bug fix/improvement; - Avoids the case of developers changing the core of the monitor code to manipulate the model in a (let's say) non-standard way. This initial implementation presents three different types of monitor instances: - DECLARE_DA_MON_GLOBAL(name, type) - DECLARE_DA_MON_PER_CPU(name, type) - DECLARE_DA_MON_PER_TASK(name, type) The first declares the functions for a global deterministic automata monitor, the second for monitors with per-cpu instances, and the third with per-task instances.

signal: Guarantee that SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT is set on process exit
Track how many threads have not started exiting and when the last thread starts exiting set SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT. This guarantees that SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT will get set when a process exits. In practice this achieves nothing as glibc's implementation of _exit calls sys_group_exit then sys_exit. While glibc's implemenation of pthread_exit calls exit (which cleansup and calls _exit) if it is the last thread and sys_exit if it is the last thread. This means the only way the kernel might observe a process that does not set call exit_group is if the language runtime does not use glibc. With more cleanups I hope to move the decrement of quick_threads earlier. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/87bkukd4tc.fsf_-_@email.froward.int.ebiederm.org Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

fs/exec: allow to unshare a time namespace on vfork+exec
Right now, a new process can't be forked in another time namespace if it shares mm with its parent. It is prohibited, because each time namespace has its own vvar page that is mapped into a process address space. When a process calls exec, it gets a new mm and so it could be "legal" to switch time namespace in that case. This was not implemented and now if we want to do this, we need to add another clone flag to not break backward compatibility. We don't have any user requests to switch times on exec except the vfork+exec combination, so there is no reason to add a new clone flag. As for vfork+exec, this should be safe to allow switching timens with the current clone flag. Right now, vfork (CLONE_VFORK | CLONE_VM) fails if a child is forked into another time namespace. With this change, vfork creates a new process in parent's timens, and the following exec does the actual switch to the target time namespace.

mm: khugepaged: make khugepaged_enter() void function
The most callers of khugepaged_enter() don't care about the return value. Only dup_mmap(), anonymous THP page fault and MADV_HUGEPAGE handle the error by returning -ENOMEM. Actually it is not harmful for them to ignore the error case either. It also sounds overkilling to fail fork() and page fault early due to khugepaged_enter() error, and MADV_HUGEPAGE does set VM_HUGEPAGE flag regardless of the error.

fork: Generalize PF_IO_WORKER handling
Add fn and fn_arg members into struct kernel_clone_args and test for them in copy_thread (instead of testing for PF_KTHREAD | PF_IO_WORKER). This allows any task that wants to be a user space task that only runs in kernel mode to use this functionality. The code on x86 is an exception and still retains a PF_KTHREAD test because x86 unlikely everything else handles kthreads slightly differently than user space tasks that start with a function. The functions that created tasks that start with a function have been updated to set ".fn" and ".fn_arg" instead of ".stack" and ".stack_size". These functions are fork_idle(), create_io_thread(), kernel_thread(), and user_mode_thread(). Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220506141512.516114-4-ebiederm@xmission.com Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

Add a flag named idle to kernel_clone_args and use it to explicity test if an idle process is being created. Fullfill the expectations of the rest of the copy_thread implemetations and pass a function pointer in .stack from fork_idle(). This makes what is happening in copy_thread better defined, and is useful to make idle threads less special.

mm: Fix PASID use-after-free issue
The PASID is being freed too early. It needs to stay around until after
device drivers that might be using it have had a chance to clear it out
of the hardware.
The relevant refcounts are:
mmget() /mmput() refcount the mm's address space
mmgrab()/mmdrop() refcount the mm itself
The PASID is currently tied to the life of the mm's address space and freed
in __mmput(). This makes logical sense because the PASID can't be used
once the address space is gone.
But, this misses an important point: even after the address space is gone,
the PASID will still be programmed into a device. Device drivers might,
for instance, still need to flush operations that are outstanding and need
to use that PASID. They do this at file->release() time.
Device drivers call the IOMMU driver to hold a reference on the mm itself
and drop it at file->release() time. But, the IOMMU driver holds a
reference on the mm itself, not the address space. The address space (and
the PASID) is long gone by the time the driver tries to clean up. This is
effectively a use-after-free bug on the PASID.
To fix this, move the PASID free operation from __mmput() to __mmdrop().
This ensures that the IOMMU driver's existing mmgrab() keeps the PASID
allocated until it drops its mm reference.
Fixes:

x86/split_lock: Make life miserable for split lockers
In https://lore.kernel.org/all/87y22uujkm.ffs@tglx/ Thomas said: Its's simply wishful thinking that stuff gets fixed because of a WARN_ONCE(). This has never worked. The only thing which works is to make stuff fail hard or slow it down in a way which makes it annoying enough to users to complain. He was talking about WBINVD. But it made me think about how we use the split lock detection feature in Linux. Existing code has three options for applications: 1) Don't enable split lock detection (allow arbitrary split locks) 2) Warn once when a process uses split lock, but let the process keep running with split lock detection disabled 3) Kill process that use split locks Option 2 falls into the "wishful thinking" territory that Thomas warns does nothing. But option 3 might not be viable in a situation with legacy applications that need to run. Hence make option 2 much stricter to "slow it down in a way which makes it annoying". Primary reason for this change is to provide better quality of service to the rest of the applications running on the system. Internal testing shows that even with many processes splitting locks, performance for the rest of the system is much more responsive. The new "warn" mode operates like this. When an application tries to execute a bus lock the #AC handler. 1) Delays (interruptibly) 10 ms before moving to next step. 2) Blocks (interruptibly) until it can get the semaphore If interrupted, just return. Assume the signal will either kill the task, or direct execution away from the instruction that is trying to get the bus lock. 3) Disables split lock detection for the current core 4) Schedules a work queue to re-enable split lock detect in 2 jiffies 5) Returns The work queue that re-enables split lock detection also releases the semaphore. There is a corner case where a CPU may be taken offline while split lock detection is disabled. A CPU hotplug handler handles this case. Old behaviour was to only print the split lock warning on the first occurrence of a split lock from a task. Preserve that by adding a flag to the task structure that suppresses subsequent split lock messages from that task.

kasan, arm64: reset pointer tags of vmapped stacks
Once tag-based KASAN modes start tagging vmalloc() allocations, kernel stacks start getting tagged if CONFIG_VMAP_STACK is enabled. Reset the tag of kernel stack pointers after allocation in arch_alloc_vmap_stack(). For SW_TAGS KASAN, when CONFIG_KASAN_STACK is enabled, the instrumentation can't handle the SP register being tagged. For HW_TAGS KASAN, there's no instrumentation-related issues. However, the impact of having a tagged SP register needs to be properly evaluated, so keep it non-tagged for now. Note, that the memory for the stack allocation still gets tagged to catch vmalloc-into-stack out-of-bounds accesses.

Networking changes for 5.18.
Core ---- - Introduce XDP multi-buffer support, allowing the use of XDP with jumbo frame MTUs and combination with Rx coalescing offloads (LRO). - Speed up netns dismantling (5x) and lower the memory cost a little. Remove unnecessary per-netns sockets. Scope some lists to a netns. Cut down RCU syncing. Use batch methods. Allow netdev registration to complete out of order. - Support distinguishing timestamp types (ingress vs egress) and maintaining them across packet scrubbing points (e.g. redirect). - Continue the work of annotating packet drop reasons throughout the stack. - Switch netdev error counters from an atomic to dynamically allocated per-CPU counters. - Rework a few preempt_disable(), local_irq_save() and busy waiting sections problematic on PREEMPT_RT. - Extend the ref_tracker to allow catching use-after-free bugs. BPF --- - Introduce "packing allocator" for BPF JIT images. JITed code is marked read only, and used to be allocated at page granularity. Custom allocator allows for more efficient memory use, lower iTLB pressure and prevents identity mapping huge pages from getting split. - Make use of BTF type annotations (e.g. __user, __percpu) to enforce the correct probe read access method, add appropriate helpers. - Convert the BPF preload to use light skeleton and drop the user-mode-driver dependency. - Allow XDP BPF_PROG_RUN test infra to send real packets, enabling its use as a packet generator. - Allow local storage memory to be allocated with GFP_KERNEL if called from a hook allowed to sleep. - Introduce fprobe (multi kprobe) to speed up mass attachment (arch bits to come later). - Add unstable conntrack lookup helpers for BPF by using the BPF kfunc infra. - Allow cgroup BPF progs to return custom errors to user space. - Add support for AF_UNIX iterator batching. - Allow iterator programs to use sleepable helpers. - Support JIT of add, and, or, xor and xchg atomic ops on arm64. - Add BTFGen support to bpftool which allows to use CO-RE in kernels without BTF info. - Large number of libbpf API improvements, cleanups and deprecations. Protocols --------- - Micro-optimize UDPv6 Tx, gaining up to 5% in test on dummy netdev. - Adjust TSO packet sizes based on min_rtt, allowing very low latency links (data centers) to always send full-sized TSO super-frames. - Make IPv6 flow label changes (AKA hash rethink) more configurable, via sysctl and setsockopt. Distinguish between server and client behavior. - VxLAN support to "collect metadata" devices to terminate only configured VNIs. This is similar to VLAN filtering in the bridge. - Support inserting IPv6 IOAM information to a fraction of frames. - Add protocol attribute to IP addresses to allow identifying where given address comes from (kernel-generated, DHCP etc.) - Support setting socket and IPv6 options via cmsg on ping6 sockets. - Reject mis-use of ECN bits in IP headers as part of DSCP/TOS. Define dscp_t and stop taking ECN bits into account in fib-rules. - Add support for locked bridge ports (for 802.1X). - tun: support NAPI for packets received from batched XDP buffs, doubling the performance in some scenarios. - IPv6 extension header handling in Open vSwitch. - Support IPv6 control message load balancing in bonding, prevent neighbor solicitation and advertisement from using the wrong port. Support NS/NA monitor selection similar to existing ARP monitor. - SMC - improve performance with TCP_CORK and sendfile() - support auto-corking - support TCP_NODELAY - MCTP (Management Component Transport Protocol) - add user space tag control interface - I2C binding driver (as specified by DMTF DSP0237) - Multi-BSSID beacon handling in AP mode for WiFi. - Bluetooth: - handle MSFT Monitor Device Event - add MGMT Adv Monitor Device Found/Lost events - Multi-Path TCP: - add support for the SO_SNDTIMEO socket option - lots of selftest cleanups and improvements - Increase the max PDU size in CAN ISOTP to 64 kB. Driver API ---------- - Add HW counters for SW netdevs, a mechanism for devices which offload packet forwarding to report packet statistics back to software interfaces such as tunnels. - Select the default NIC queue count as a fraction of number of physical CPU cores, instead of hard-coding to 8. - Expose devlink instance locks to drivers. Allow device layer of drivers to use that lock directly instead of creating their own which always runs into ordering issues in devlink callbacks. - Add header/data split indication to guide user space enabling of TCP zero-copy Rx. - Allow configuring completion queue event size. - Refactor page_pool to enable fragmenting after allocation. - Add allocation and page reuse statistics to page_pool. - Improve Multiple Spanning Trees support in the bridge to allow reuse of topologies across VLANs, saving HW resources in switches. - DSA (Distributed Switch Architecture): - replay and offload of host VLAN entries - offload of static and local FDB entries on LAG interfaces - FDB isolation and unicast filtering New hardware / drivers ---------------------- - Ethernet: - LAN937x T1 PHYs - Davicom DM9051 SPI NIC driver - Realtek RTL8367S, RTL8367RB-VB switch and MDIO - Microchip ksz8563 switches - Netronome NFP3800 SmartNICs - Fungible SmartNICs - MediaTek MT8195 switches - WiFi: - mt76: MediaTek mt7916 - mt76: MediaTek mt7921u USB adapters - brcmfmac: Broadcom BCM43454/6 - Mobile: - iosm: Intel M.2 7360 WWAN card Drivers ------- - Convert many drivers to the new phylink API built for split PCS designs but also simplifying other cases. - Intel Ethernet NICs: - add TTY for GNSS module for E810T device - improve AF_XDP performance - GTP-C and GTP-U filter offload - QinQ VLAN support - Mellanox Ethernet NICs (mlx5): - support xdp->data_meta - multi-buffer XDP - offload tc push_eth and pop_eth actions - Netronome Ethernet NICs (nfp): - flow-independent tc action hardware offload (police / meter) - AF_XDP - Other Ethernet NICs: - at803x: fiber and SFP support - xgmac: mdio: preamble suppression and custom MDC frequencies - r8169: enable ASPM L1.2 if system vendor flags it as safe - macb/gem: ZynqMP SGMII - hns3: add TX push mode - dpaa2-eth: software TSO - lan743x: multi-queue, mdio, SGMII, PTP - axienet: NAPI and GRO support - Mellanox Ethernet switches (mlxsw): - source and dest IP address rewrites - RJ45 ports - Marvell Ethernet switches (prestera): - basic routing offload - multi-chain TC ACL offload - NXP embedded Ethernet switches (ocelot & felix): - PTP over UDP with the ocelot-8021q DSA tagging protocol - basic QoS classification on Felix DSA switch using dcbnl - port mirroring for ocelot switches - Microchip high-speed industrial Ethernet (sparx5): - offloading of bridge port flooding flags - PTP Hardware Clock - Other embedded switches: - lan966x: PTP Hardward Clock - qca8k: mdio read/write operations via crafted Ethernet packets - Qualcomm 802.11ax WiFi (ath11k): - add LDPC FEC type and 802.11ax High Efficiency data in radiotap - enable RX PPDU stats in monitor co-exist mode - Intel WiFi (iwlwifi): - UHB TAS enablement via BIOS - band disablement via BIOS - channel switch offload - 32 Rx AMPDU sessions in newer devices - MediaTek WiFi (mt76): - background radar detection - thermal management improvements on mt7915 - SAR support for more mt76 platforms - MBSSID and 6 GHz band on mt7915 - RealTek WiFi: - rtw89: AP mode - rtw89: 160 MHz channels and 6 GHz band - rtw89: hardware scan - Bluetooth: - mt7921s: wake on Bluetooth, SCO over I2S, wide-band-speed (WBS) - Microchip CAN (mcp251xfd): - multiple RX-FIFOs and runtime configurable RX/TX rings - internal PLL, runtime PM handling simplification - improve chip detection and error handling after wakeup Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCAAdFiEE6jPA+I1ugmIBA4hXMUZtbf5SIrsFAmI7YBcACgkQMUZtbf5S IrveSBAAmSNJlUK6vPsnNzs7IhsZnfI/AUjm2TCLZnlhKttbpI4A/4Pohk33V7RS FGX7f8kjEfhUwrIiLDgeCnztNHRECrCmk6aZc/jLEvecmTauJ+f6kjShkDY/wix+ AkPHmrZnQeLPAEVuljDdV+sL6ik08+zQL7PazIYHsaSKKC0MGQptRwcri8PLRAKE KPBAhVhleq2rAZ/ntprSN52F4Af6rpFTrPIWuN8Bqdbc9dy5094LT0mpOOWYvgr3 /DLvvAPuLemwyIQkjWknVKBRUAQcmNPC+BY3J8K3LRaiNhekGqOFan46BfqP+k2J 6DWu0Qrp2yWt4BMOeEToZR5rA6v5suUAMIBu8PRZIDkINXQMlIxHfGjZyNm0rVfw 7edNri966yus9OdzwPa32MIG3oC6PnVAwYCJAjjBMNS8sSIkp7wgHLkgWN4UFe2H K/e6z8TLF4UQ+zFM0aGI5WZ+9QqWkTWEDF3R3OhdFpGrznna0gxmkOeV2YvtsgxY cbS0vV9Zj73o+bYzgBKJsw/dAjyLdXoHUGvus26VLQ78S/VGunVKtItwoxBAYmZo krW964qcC89YofzSi8RSKLHuEWtNWZbVm8YXr75u6jpr5GhMBu0CYefLs+BuZcxy dw8c69cGneVbGZmY2J3rBhDkchbuICl8vdUPatGrOJAoaFdYKuw= =ELpe -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'net-next-5.18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski: "The sprinkling of SPI drivers is because we added a new one and Mark sent us a SPI driver interface conversion pull request.

Core code updates:
- Reduce the amount of work to release a task stack in context switch. There is no real reason to do cgroup accounting and memory freeing in this performance sensitive context.

rethook: Add a generic return hook
Add a return hook framework which hooks the function return. Most of the logic came from the kretprobe, but this is independent from kretprobe. Note that this is expected to be used with other function entry hooking feature, like ftrace, fprobe, adn kprobes. Eventually this will replace the kretprobe (e.g. kprobe + rethook = kretprobe), but at this moment, this is just an additional hook.

fork: Only cache the VMAP stack in finish_task_switch()
The task stack could be deallocated later, but for fork()/exec() kind of workloads (say a shell script executing several commands) it is important that the stack is released in finish_task_switch() so that in VMAP_STACK case it can be cached and reused in the new task. For PREEMPT_RT it would be good if the wake-up in vfree_atomic() could be avoided in the scheduling path. Far worse are the other free_thread_stack() implementations which invoke __free_pages()/ kmem_cache_free() with disabled preemption. Cache the stack in free_thread_stack() in the VMAP_STACK case and RCU-delay the free path otherwise. Free the stack in the RCU callback. In the VMAP_STACK case this is another opportunity to fill the cache.

fork: Redo ifdefs around task stack handling
The use of ifdef CONFIG_VMAP_STACK is confusing in terms what is actually happenning and what can happen. For instance from reading free_thread_stack() it appears that in the CONFIG_VMAP_STACK case it may receive a non-NULL vm pointer but it may also be NULL in which case __free_pages() is used to free the stack. This is however not the case because in the VMAP case a non-NULL pointer is always returned here. Since it looks like this might happen, the compiler creates the correct dead code with the invocation to __free_pages() and everything around it. Twice. Add spaces between the ifdef and the identifer to recognize the ifdef level which is currently in scope. Add the current identifer as a comment behind #else and #endif. Move the code within free_thread_stack() and alloc_thread_stack_node() into the relevant ifdef blocks.

iommu/sva: Assign a PASID to mm on PASID allocation and free it on mm exit
PASIDs are process-wide. It was attempted to use refcounted PASIDs to free them when the last thread drops the refcount. This turned out to be complex and error prone. Given the fact that the PASID space is 20 bits, which allows up to 1M processes to have a PASID associated concurrently, PASID resource exhaustion is not a realistic concern. Therefore, it was decided to simplify the approach and stick with lazy on demand PASID allocation, but drop the eager free approach and make an allocated PASID's lifetime bound to the lifetime of the process. Get rid of the refcounting mechanisms and replace/rename the interfaces to reflect this new approach.

kernel/fork: Initialize mm's PASID
A new mm doesn't have a PASID yet when it's created. Initialize the mm's PASID on fork() or for init_mm to INVALID_IOASID (-1). INIT_PASID (0) is reserved for kernel legacy DMA PASID. It cannot be allocated to a user process. Initializing the process's PASID to 0 may cause confusion that's why the process uses the reserved kernel legacy DMA PASID. Initializing the PASID to INVALID_IOASID (-1) explicitly tells the process doesn't have a valid PASID yet. Even though the only user of mm_pasid_init() is in fork.c, define it in <linux/sched/mm.h> as the first of three mm/pasid life cycle functions (init/set/drop) to keep these all together.

Pull signal/exit/ptrace updates from Eric Biederman: "This set of changes deletes some dead code, makes a lot of cleanups which hopefully make the code easier to follow, and fixes bugs found along the way. The end-game which I have not yet reached yet is for fatal signals that generate coredumps to be short-circuit deliverable from complete_signal, for force_siginfo_to_task not to require changing userspace configured signal delivery state, and for the ptrace stops to always happen in locations where we can guarantee on all architectures that the all of the registers are saved and available on the stack. Removal of profile_task_ext, profile_munmap, and profile_handoff_task are the big successes for dead code removal this round. A bunch of small bug fixes are included, as most of the issues reported were small enough that they would not affect bisection so I simply added the fixes and did not fold the fixes into the changes they were fixing. There was a bug that broke coredumps piped to systemd-coredump. I dropped the change that caused that bug and replaced it entirely with something much more restrained. Unfortunately that required some rebasing. Some successes after this set of changes: There are few enough calls to do_exit to audit in a reasonable amount of time. The lifetime of struct kthread now matches the lifetime of struct task, and the pointer to struct kthread is no longer stored in set_child_tid. The flag SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP is removed. The field group_exit_task is removed. Issues where task->exit_code was examined with signal->group_exit_code should been examined were fixed. There are several loosely related changes included because I am cleaning up and if I don't include them they will probably get lost.

mm: move anon_vma declarations to linux/mm_inline.h
The patch to add anonymous vma names causes a build failure in some configurations: include/linux/mm_types.h: In function 'is_same_vma_anon_name': include/linux/mm_types.h:924:37: error: implicit declaration of function 'strcmp' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration] 924 | return name && vma_name && !strcmp(name, vma_name); | ^~~~~~ include/linux/mm_types.h:22:1: note: 'strcmp' is defined in header '<string.h>'; did you forget to '#include <string.h>'? This should not really be part of linux/mm_types.h in the first place, as that header is meant to only contain structure defintions and need a minimum set of indirect includes itself. While the header clearly includes more than it should at this point, let's not make it worse by including string.h as well, which would pull in the expensive (compile-speed wise) fortify-string logic. Move the new functions into a separate header that only needs to be included in a couple of locations.

mm: add a field to store names for private anonymous memory
In many userspace applications, and especially in VM based applications like Android uses heavily, there are multiple different allocators in use. At a minimum there is libc malloc and the stack, and in many cases there are libc malloc, the stack, direct syscalls to mmap anonymous memory, and multiple VM heaps (one for small objects, one for big objects, etc.). Each of these layers usually has its own tools to inspect its usage; malloc by compiling a debug version, the VM through heap inspection tools, and for direct syscalls there is usually no way to track them. On Android we heavily use a set of tools that use an extended version of the logic covered in Documentation/vm/pagemap.txt to walk all pages mapped in userspace and slice their usage by process, shared (COW) vs. unique mappings, backing, etc. This can account for real physical memory usage even in cases like fork without exec (which Android uses heavily to share as many private COW pages as possible between processes), Kernel SamePage Merging, and clean zero pages. It produces a measurement of the pages that only exist in that process (USS, for unique), and a measurement of the physical memory usage of that process with the cost of shared pages being evenly split between processes that share them (PSS). If all anonymous memory is indistinguishable then figuring out the real physical memory usage (PSS) of each heap requires either a pagemap walking tool that can understand the heap debugging of every layer, or for every layer's heap debugging tools to implement the pagemap walking logic, in which case it is hard to get a consistent view of memory across the whole system. Tracking the information in userspace leads to all sorts of problems. It either needs to be stored inside the process, which means every process has to have an API to export its current heap information upon request, or it has to be stored externally in a filesystem that somebody needs to clean up on crashes. It needs to be readable while the process is still running, so it has to have some sort of synchronization with every layer of userspace. Efficiently tracking the ranges requires reimplementing something like the kernel vma trees, and linking to it from every layer of userspace. It requires more memory, more syscalls, more runtime cost, and more complexity to separately track regions that the kernel is already tracking. This patch adds a field to /proc/pid/maps and /proc/pid/smaps to show a userspace-provided name for anonymous vmas. The names of named anonymous vmas are shown in /proc/pid/maps and /proc/pid/smaps as [anon:<name>]. Userspace can set the name for a region of memory by calling prctl(PR_SET_VMA, PR_SET_VMA_ANON_NAME, start, len, (unsigned long)name) Setting the name to NULL clears it. The name length limit is 80 bytes including NUL-terminator and is checked to contain only printable ascii characters (including space), except '[',']','\','$' and '`'. Ascii strings are being used to have a descriptive identifiers for vmas, which can be understood by the users reading /proc/pid/maps or /proc/pid/smaps. Names can be standardized for a given system and they can include some variable parts such as the name of the allocator or a library, tid of the thread using it, etc. The name is stored in a pointer in the shared union in vm_area_struct that points to a null terminated string. Anonymous vmas with the same name (equivalent strings) and are otherwise mergeable will be merged. The name pointers are not shared between vmas even if they contain the same name. The name pointer is stored in a union with fields that are only used on file-backed mappings, so it does not increase memory usage. CONFIG_ANON_VMA_NAME kernel configuration is introduced to enable this feature. It keeps the feature disabled by default to prevent any additional memory overhead and to avoid confusing procfs parsers on systems which are not ready to support named anonymous vmas. The patch is based on the original patch developed by Colin Cross, more specifically on its latest version [1] posted upstream by Sumit Semwal. It used a userspace pointer to store vma names. In that design, name pointers could be shared between vmas. However during the last upstreaming attempt, Kees Cook raised concerns [2] about this approach and suggested to copy the name into kernel memory space, perform validity checks [3] and store as a string referenced from vm_area_struct. One big concern is about fork() performance which would need to strdup anonymous vma names. Dave Hansen suggested experimenting with worst-case scenario of forking a process with 64k vmas having longest possible names [4]. I ran this experiment on an ARM64 Android device and recorded a worst-case regression of almost 40% when forking such a process. This regression is addressed in the followup patch which replaces the pointer to a name with a refcounted structure that allows sharing the name pointer between vmas of the same name. Instead of duplicating the string during fork() or when splitting a vma it increments the refcount.

Note that assigning an attribute to a virtual memory area might prevent it from being merged with adjacent virtual memory areas due to the difference in that attribute's value. Currently, arg2 must be one of: PR_SET_VMA_ANON_NAME Set a name for anonymous virtual memory areas. arg5 should be a pointer to a null-terminated string containing the name. The name length including null byte cannot exceed 80 bytes. If arg5 is NULL, the name of the appropriate anonymous virtual memory areas will be reset. The name can contain only printable ascii characters (including space), except '[',']','\','$' and '`'.

kthread: Generalize pf_io_worker so it can point to struct kthread
The point of using set_child_tid to hold the kthread pointer was that it already did what is necessary. There are now restrictions on when set_child_tid can be initialized and when set_child_tid can be used in schedule_tail. Which indicates that continuing to use set_child_tid to hold the kthread pointer is a bad idea. Instead of continuing to use the set_child_tid field of task_struct generalize the pf_io_worker field of task_struct and use it to hold the kthread pointer. Rename pf_io_worker (which is a void * pointer) to worker_private so it can be used to store kthreads struct kthread pointer. Update the kthread code to store the kthread pointer in the worker_private field. Remove the places where set_child_tid had to be dealt with carefully because kthreads also used it.

kthread: Ensure struct kthread is present for all kthreads
Today the rules are a bit iffy and arbitrary about which kernel threads have struct kthread present. Both idle threads and thread started with create_kthread want struct kthread present so that is effectively all kernel threads. Make the rule that if PF_KTHREAD and the task is running then struct kthread is present. This will allow the kernel thread code to using tsk->exit_code with different semantics from ordinary processes. To make ensure that struct kthread is present for all kernel threads move it's allocation into copy_process. Add a deallocation of struct kthread in exec for processes that were kernel threads. Move the allocation of struct kthread for the initial thread earlier so that it is not repeated for each additional idle thread. Move the initialization of struct kthread into set_kthread_struct so that the structure is always and reliably initailized. Clear set_child_tid in free_kthread_struct to ensure the kthread struct is reliably freed during exec. The function free_kthread_struct does not need to clear vfork_done during exec as exec_mm_release called from exec_mmap has already cleared vfork_done. Signed-off-by: "Eric W.
