c06b6d7 Stefano Stabellini 16 April 2016, 01:23:00 UTC xen/x86: don't lose event interrupts On slow platforms with unreliable TSC, such as QEMU emulated machines, it is possible for the kernel to request the next event in the past. In that case, in the current implementation of xen_vcpuop_clockevent, we simply return -ETIME. To be precise the Xen returns -ETIME and we pass it on. However the result of this is a missed event, which simply causes the kernel to hang. Instead it is better to always ask the hypervisor for a timer event, even if the timeout is in the past. That way there are no lost interrupts and the kernel survives. To do that, remove the VCPU_SSHOTTMR_future flag.

This might happen if the oom victim is multi threaded and some thread(s) is holding mmap_sem for read (e.g. page fault) and it is stuck in the page allocator while other thread(s) reached coredump_wait already. This patch simply uses down_write_killable and bails out with EINTR if the lock got interrupted by the fatal signal. do_coredump will return right away and do_group_exit will take care to zap the whole thread group.

864778b Michal Hocko 23 May 2016, 23:25:36 UTC mm, aout: handle vm_brk failures vm_brk is allowed to fail but load_aout_binary simply ignores the error and happily continues. I haven't noticed any problem from that in real life but later patches will make the failure more likely because vm_brk will become killable (resp. mmap_sem for write waiting will become killable) so we should be more careful now. The error handling should be quite straightforward because there are calls to vm_mmap which check the error properly already. The only notable exception is set_brk which is called after beyond_if label. But nothing indicates that we cannot move it above set_binfmt as the two do not depend on each other and fail before we do set_binfmt and alter reference counting.

ae79878 Michal Hocko 23 May 2016, 23:25:33 UTC mm: make vm_munmap killable Almost all current users of vm_munmap are ignoring the return value and so they do not handle potential error. This means that some VMAs might stay behind. This patch doesn't try to solve those potential problems. Quite contrary it adds a new failure mode by using down_write_killable in vm_munmap. This should be safer than other failure modes, though, because the process is guaranteed to die as soon as it leaves the kernel and exit_mmap will clean the whole address space. This will help in the OOM conditions when the oom victim might be stuck waiting for the mmap_sem for write which in turn can block oom_reaper which relies on the mmap_sem for read to make a forward progress and reclaim the address space of the victim.

9fbeb5a Michal Hocko 23 May 2016, 23:25:30 UTC mm: make vm_mmap killable All the callers of vm_mmap seem to check for the failure already and bail out in one way or another on the error which means that we can change it to use killable version of vm_mmap_pgoff and return -EINTR if the current task gets killed while waiting for mmap_sem. This also means that vm_mmap_pgoff can be killable by default and drop the additional parameter. This will help in the OOM conditions when the oom victim might be stuck waiting for the mmap_sem for write which in turn can block oom_reaper which relies on the mmap_sem for read to make a forward progress and reclaim the address space of the victim. Please note that load_elf_binary is ignoring vm_mmap error for current->personality & MMAP_PAGE_ZERO case but that shouldn't be a problem because the address is not used anywhere and we never return to the userspace if we got killed.

dc0ef0d Michal Hocko 23 May 2016, 23:25:27 UTC mm: make mmap_sem for write waits killable for mm syscalls This is a follow up work for oom_reaper [1]. As the async OOM killing depends on oom_sem for read we would really appreciate if a holder for write didn't stood in the way. This patchset is changing many of down_write calls to be killable to help those cases when the writer is blocked and waiting for readers to release the lock and so help __oom_reap_task to process the oom victim. Most of the patches are really trivial because the lock is help from a shallow syscall paths where we can return EINTR trivially and allow the current task to die (note that EINTR will never get to the userspace as the task has fatal signal pending). Others seem to be easy as well as the callers are already handling fatal errors and bail and return to userspace which should be sufficient to handle the failure gracefully. I am not familiar with all those code paths so a deeper review is really appreciated. As this work is touching more areas which are not directly connected I have tried to keep the CC list as small as possible and people who I believed would be familiar are CCed only to the specific patches (all should have received the cover though). This patchset is based on linux-next and it depends on down_write_killable for rw_semaphores which got merged into tip locking/rwsem branch and it is merged into this next tree. I guess it would be easiest to route these patches via mmotm because of the dependency on the tip tree but if respective maintainers prefer other way I have no objections. I haven't covered all the mmap_write(mm->mmap_sem) instances here $ git grep "down_write(.*\<mmap_sem\>)" next/master | wc -l 98 $ git grep "down_write(.*\<mmap_sem\>)" | wc -l 62 I have tried to cover those which should be relatively easy to review in this series because this alone should be a nice improvement. Other places can be changed on top.

It focuses on the trivial ones which are taking the lock early after entering the syscall and they are not changing state before. Therefore it is very easy to change them to use down_write_killable and immediately return with -EINTR. This will allow the waiter to pass away without blocking the mmap_sem which might be required to make a forward progress. E.g. the oom reaper will need the lock for reading to dismantle the OOM victim address space. The only tricky function in this patch is vm_mmap_pgoff which has many call sites via vm_mmap. To reduce the risk keep vm_mmap with the original non-killable semantic for now. vm_munmap callers do not bother checking the return value so open code it into the munmap syscall path for now for simplicity.

e127a73 Kieran Bingham 23 May 2016, 23:25:07 UTC scripts/gdb: add a Radix Tree Parser Linux makes use of the Radix Tree data structure to store pointers indexed by integer values. This structure is utilised across many structures in the kernel including the IRQ descriptor tables, and several filesystems. This module provides a method to lookup values from a structure given its head node. Usage: The function lx_radix_tree_lookup, must be given a symbol of type struct radix_tree_root, and an index into that tree. The object returned is a generic integer value, and must be cast correctly to the type based on the storage in the data structure. For example, to print the irq descriptor in the sparse irq_desc_tree at index 18, try the following: (gdb) print (struct irq_desc)$lx_radix_tree_lookup(irq_desc_tree, 18) Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/d2028c55e50cf95a9b7f8ca0d11885174b0cc709.1462865983.git.jan.kiszka@siemens.com Signed-off-by: Kieran Bingham <kieran.bingham@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@siemens.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> 24 May 2016, 00:04:14 UTC

Therefore, this patch consolidates them, and uses the new arch_kexec_protect(unprotect)_crashkres() to replace former crash_map/unmap_reserved_pages() which by now has been only used by S390. The consolidation work needs the crash memory to be mapped initially, this is done in machine_kdump_pm_init() which is after reserve_crashkernel(). Once kdump kernel is loaded, the new arch_kexec_protect_crashkres() implemented for S390 will actually unmap the pgtable like before.

To fix it, we make a pair of map/unmap reserved pages both in generic path and error path. This patch only affects s390. Other architecturess don't implement the interface of crash_unmap_reserved_pages and crash_map_reserved_pages. It isn't a urgent patch.

9b492cf Xunlei Pang 23 May 2016, 23:24:10 UTC kexec: introduce a protection mechanism for the crashkernel reserved memory For the cases that some kernel (module) path stamps the crash reserved memory(already mapped by the kernel) where has been loaded the second kernel data, the kdump kernel will probably fail to boot when panic happens (or even not happens) leaving the culprit at large, this is unacceptable. The patch introduces a mechanism for detecting such cases: 1) After each crash kexec loading, it simply marks the reserved memory regions readonly since we no longer access it after that. When someone stamps the region, the first kernel will panic and trigger the kdump. The weak arch_kexec_protect_crashkres() is introduced to do the actual protection. 2) To allow multiple loading, once 1) was done we also need to remark the reserved memory to readwrite each time a system call related to kdump is made. The weak arch_kexec_unprotect_crashkres() is introduced to do the actual protection. The architecture can make its specific implementation by overriding arch_kexec_protect_crashkres() and arch_kexec_unprotect_crashkres().

9eb8a65 Oleg Nesterov 23 May 2016, 23:24:08 UTC exec: remove the no longer needed remove_arg_zero()->free_arg_page() remove_arg_zero() does free_arg_page() for no reason. This was needed before and only if CONFIG_MMU=y: see commit 4fc75ff4816c ("exec: fix remove_arg_zero"), install_arg_page() was called for every page != NULL in bprm->page[] array. Today install_arg_page() has already gone and free_arg_page() is nop after another commit b6a2fea39318 ("mm: variable length argument support"). CONFIG_MMU=n does free_arg_pages() in free_bprm() and thus it doesn't need remove_arg_zero()->free_arg_page() too; apart from get_arg_page() it never checks if the page in bprm->page[] was allocated or not, so the "extra" non-freed page is fine. OTOH, this free_arg_page() can add the minor pessimization, the caller is going to do copy_strings_kernel() right after remove_arg_zero() which will likely need to re-allocate the same page again. And as Hujunjie pointed out, the "offset == PAGE_SIZE" check is wrong because we are going to increment bprm->p once again before return, so CONFIG_MMU=n "leaks" the page anyway if '0' is the final byte in this page. NOTE: remove_arg_zero() assumes that argv[0] is null-terminated but this is not necessarily true. copy_strings() does "len = strnlen_user(...)", then copy_from_user(len) but another thread or debuger can overwrite the trailing '0' in between. Afaics nothing really bad can happen because we must always have the null-terminated bprm->filename copied by the 1st copy_strings_kernel(), but perhaps we should change this code to check "bprm->p < bprm->exec" anyway, and/or change copy_strings() to ensure that the last byte in string is always zero.

725fc62 Andi Kleen 23 May 2016, 23:24:05 UTC kernek/fork.c: allocate idle task for a CPU always on its local node Linux preallocates the task structs of the idle tasks for all possible CPUs. This currently means they all end up on node 0. This also implies that the cache line of MWAIT, which is around the flags field in the task struct, are all located in node 0. We see a noticeable performance improvement on Knights Landing CPUs when the cache lines used for MWAIT are located in the local nodes of the CPUs using them. I would expect this to give a (likely slight) improvement on other systems too. The patch implements placing the idle task in the node of its CPUs, by passing the right target node to copy_process() [akpm@linux-foundation.org: use NUMA_NO_NODE, not a bare -1] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1463492694-15833-1-git-send-email-andi@firstfloor.org Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> 24 May 2016, 00:04:14 UTC

c96fc2d Tetsuo Handa 23 May 2016, 23:23:57 UTC signal: make oom_flags a bool Currently the size of "struct signal_struct"->oom_flags member is sizeof(unsigned) bytes, but only one flag OOM_FLAG_ORIGIN which is updated by current thread is defined. We can convert OOM_FLAG_ORIGIN into a bool, and reuse the saved bytes for updating from the OOM killer and/or the OOM reaper thread. By the way, do we care about a race window between run_store() and swapoff() because it would be theoretically possible that two threads sharing the "struct signal_struct" concurrently call respective functions? If we care, we can make oom_flags an atomic_t.

bf95993 Oleg Nesterov 23 May 2016, 23:23:50 UTC wait/ptrace: assume __WALL if the child is traced The following program (simplified version of generated by syzkaller) #include <pthread.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/ptrace.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <signal.h> void *thread_func(void *arg) { ptrace(PTRACE_TRACEME, 0,0,0); return 0; } int main(void) { pthread_t thread; if (fork()) return 0; while (getppid() != 1) ; pthread_create(&thread, NULL, thread_func, NULL); pthread_join(thread, NULL); return 0; } creates an unreapable zombie if /sbin/init doesn't use __WALL. This is not a kernel bug, at least in a sense that everything works as expected: debugger should reap a traced sub-thread before it can reap the leader, but without __WALL/__WCLONE do_wait() ignores sub-threads. Unfortunately, it seems that /sbin/init in most (all?) distributions doesn't use it and we have to change the kernel to avoid the problem. Note also that most init's use sys_waitid() which doesn't allow __WALL, so the necessary user-space fix is not that trivial. This patch just adds the "ptrace" check into eligible_child(). To some degree this matches the "tsk->ptrace" in exit_notify(), ->exit_signal is mostly ignored when the tracee reports to debugger. Or WSTOPPED, the tracer doesn't need to set this flag to wait for the stopped tracee. This obviously means the user-visible change: __WCLONE and __WALL no longer have any meaning for debugger. And I can only hope that this won't break something, but at least strace/gdb won't suffer. We could make a more conservative change. Say, we can take __WCLONE into account, or !thread_group_leader(). But it would be nice to not complicate these historical/confusing checks.
