ipc: rename ipcctl_pre_down_nolock()

Both the comment and the name of ipcctl_pre_down_nolock() are misleading:
The function must be called while holdling the rw semaphore.

Therefore the patch renames the function to ipcctl_obtain_check(): This
name matches the other names used in util.c:

- "obtain" function look up a pointer in the idr, without
  acquiring the object lock.
- The caller is responsible for locking.
- _check means that the sequence number is checked.

6 years agoipc: reorganize initialization of kern_ipc_perm.seq
Manfred Spraul [Wed, 22 Aug 2018 05:01:25 +0000 (22:01 -0700)]
ipc: reorganize initialization of kern_ipc_perm.seq

ipc_addid() initializes kern_ipc_perm.seq after having called idr_alloc()
(within ipc_idr_alloc()).

Thus a parallel semop() or msgrcv() that uses ipc_obtain_object_check()
may see an uninitialized value.

The patch moves the initialization of kern_ipc_perm.seq before the calls
of idr_alloc().

Notes:
1) This patch has a user space visible side effect:
If /proc/sys/kernel/*_next_id is used (i.e.: checkpoint/restore) and
if semget()/msgget()/shmget() fails in the final step of adding the id
to the rhash tree, then .._next_id is cleared. Before the patch, is
remained unmodified.

There is no change of the behavior after a successful ..get() call: It
always clears .._next_id, there is no impact to non checkpoint/restore
code as that code does not use .._next_id.

2) The patch correctly documents that after a call to ipc_idr_alloc(),
the full tear-down sequence must be used. The callers of ipc_addid()
do not fullfill that, i.e. more bugfixes are required.

The patch is a squash of a patch from Dmitry and my own changes.

In the SYSV file system, the superblock timestamp is only 32 bits wide,
and it is used to check whether a file system is clean, so the best
solution seems to be to force a wraparound and explicitly convert it to an
unsigned 32-bit value.

This is independent of the inode timestamps that are also 32-bit wide on
disk and that come from current_time().

Before this change, if a multithreaded process forks while one of its
threads is changing a signal handler using sigaction(), the memcpy() in
copy_sighand() can race with the struct assignment in do_sigaction().  It
isn't clear whether this can cause corruption of the userspace signal
handler pointer, but it definitely can cause inconsistency between
different fields of struct sigaction.

Take the appropriate spinlock to avoid this.

I have tested that this patch prevents inconsistency between sa_sigaction
and sa_flags, which is possible before this patch.

reiserfs: fix broken xattr handling (heap corruption, bad retval)

This fixes the following issues:

- When a buffer size is supplied to reiserfs_listxattr() such that each
  individual name fits, but the concatenation of all names doesn't fit,
  reiserfs_listxattr() overflows the supplied buffer.  This leads to a
  kernel heap overflow (verified using KASAN) followed by an out-of-bounds
  usercopy and is therefore a security bug.

- When a buffer size is supplied to reiserfs_listxattr() such that a
  name doesn't fit, -ERANGE should be returned.  But reiserfs instead just
  truncates the list of names; I have verified that if the only xattr on a
  file has a longer name than the supplied buffer length, listxattr()
  incorrectly returns zero.

With my patch applied, -ERANGE is returned in both cases and the memory
corruption doesn't happen anymore.

Credit for making me clean this code up a bit goes to Al Viro, who pointed
out that the ->actor calling convention is suboptimal and should be
changed.

The Korean alphabet is special because its normalization is done without a

about it for the decomposition.

Fix this using the Hangul decomposition function provided in the Unicode
Standard.  The code fits a bit awkwardly because it requires a buffer,
while all the other normalizations are returned as pointers to the
decomposition table.  This is actually also a bug because reordering may
still be needed, but for now leave it as it is.

The patch will cause trouble for Hangul filenames already created by the
module in the past.  This shouldn't really be concern because its main
purpose was always sharing with macOS.  If a user actually needs to access
such a file the nodecompose mount option should be enough.

6 years agocheckpatch: fix macro argument reuse test

checkpatch: fix macro argument reuse test

Multiple line macro definitions where the arguments are separated by line
continuations can cause checkpatch to emit invalid syntax regex tests.

This can occur when a single argument is modified in a part of a patch.

For example: (to not add a diff in the commit message)

$ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl --git db023296f0115d2fe01fdabad54678f2b806da23
Unterminated \g... pattern in regex; <very long regex omitted>

And, the test does not work correctly when these arguments are all new as
the initial patch line addition "+" is used in the argument name.

Fix this by stripping the line continuations and any "+" from the list of
arguments.

6 years agolib: add crc64 calculation routines
Coly Li [Wed, 22 Aug 2018 04:57:11 +0000 (21:57 -0700)]
lib: add crc64 calculation routines

Patch series "add crc64 calculation as kernel library", v5.

This patchset adds basic implementation of crc64 calculation as a Linux
kernel library.  Since bcache already does crc64 by itself, this patchset
also modifies bcache code to use the new crc64 library routine.

Currently bcache is the only user of crc64 calculation, another potential
user is bcachefs which is on the way to be in mainline kernel.  Therefore
it makes sense to make crc64 calculation to be a public library.

bcache uses crc64 as storage checksum, if a change of crc lib routines
results an inconsistent result, the unmatched checksum may make bcache
'think' the on-disk is corrupted, such a change should be avoided or
detected as early as possible.  Therefore a patch is being prepared which
adds a crc test framework, to check consistency of different calculations.

This patch (of 2):

Add the re-write crc64 calculation routines for Linux kernel.  The CRC64
polynomical arithmetic follows ECMA-182 specification, inspired by CRC
paper of Dr.  Ross N.  Williams (see
http://www.ross.net/crc/download/crc_v3.txt) and other public domain
implementations.

All the changes work in this way,
- When Linux kernel is built, host program lib/gen_crc64table.c will be
  compiled to lib/gen_crc64table and executed.
- The output of gen_crc64table execution is an array called as lookup
  table (a.k.a POLY 0x42f0e1eba9ea369) which contain 256 64-bit long
  numbers, this table is dumped into header file lib/crc64table.h.
- Then the header file is included by lib/crc64.c for normal 64bit crc
  calculation.
- Function declaration of the crc64 calculation routines is placed in
  include/linux/crc64.h

Currently bcache is the only user of crc64_be(), another potential user is
bcachefs which is on the way to be in mainline kernel.  Therefore it makes
sense to move crc64 calculation into lib/crc64.c as public code.

6 years agofs/epoll: loosen irq safety in epoll_insert() and epoll_remove()

fs/epoll: loosen irq safety in epoll_insert() and epoll_remove()

Both functions are similar to the context of ep_modify(), called via
epoll_ctl(2).  Just like ep_modify(), saving and restoring interrupts is
an overkill in these calls as it will never be called with irqs disabled.
While ep_remove() can be called directly from EPOLL_CTL_DEL, it can also
be called when releasing the file, but this also complies with the above.

fs/epoll: loosen irq safety in ep_scan_ready_list()

Patch series "fs/epoll: loosen irq safety when possible".

Both patches replace saving+restoring interrupts when taking the ep->lock
(now the waitqueue lock), with just disabling local irqs.  This shows
immediate performance benefits in patch 1 for an epoll workload running on
Xen.  The main concern we need to have with this sort of changes in epoll
is the ep_poll_callback() which is passed to the wait queue wakeup and is
done very often under irq context, this patch does not touch this call.

Patches have been tested pretty heavily with the customer workload,
microbenchmarks, ltp testcases and two high level workloads that use epoll
under the hood: nginx and libevent benchmarks.

This patch (of 2):

Saving and restoring interrupts in ep_scan_ready_list() is an
overkill as it is never called with interrupts disabled. Loosen
this to simply disabling local irqs such that archs where managing
irqs is expensive or virtual environments. This patch yields
some throughput improvements on a workload that is epoll intensive
running on a single Xen DomU.

1 Job  7500 -->    8800 enq/s  (+17%)
2 Jobs 14000   -->   15200 enq/s  (+8%)
3 Jobs 20500 -->   22300 enq/s  (+8%)
4 Jobs 25000   -->   28000 enq/s  (+8-12)%

On bare metal:

For a 2-socket 40-core (ht) IvyBridge on a few workloads, unfortunately I
don't have a xen environment and the results for Xen I do have (which
numbers are in patch 1) I don't have the actual workload, so cannot
compare them directly.

1) Different configurations were used for a epoll_wait (pipes io)
   microbench (http://linux-scalability.org/epoll/epoll-test.c) and shows
   around a 7-10% improvement in overall total number of times the
   epoll_wait() loops when using both regular and nested epolls, so very
   raw numbers, but measurable nonetheless.

6 years agomodule: use relative references for __ksymtab entries

module: use relative references for __ksymtab entries

An ordinary arm64 defconfig build has ~64 KB worth of __ksymtab entries,
each consisting of two 64-bit fields containing absolute references, to
the symbol itself and to a char array containing its name, respectively.

When we build the same configuration with KASLR enabled, we end up with an
additional ~192 KB of relocations in the .init section, i.e., one 24 byte
entry for each absolute reference, which all need to be processed at boot
time.

Given how the struct kernel_symbol that describes each entry is completely
local to module.c (except for the references emitted by EXPORT_SYMBOL()
itself), we can easily modify it to contain two 32-bit relative references
instead.  This reduces the size of the __ksymtab section by 50% for all
64-bit architectures, and gets rid of the runtime relocations entirely for
architectures implementing KASLR, either via standard PIE linking (arm64)
or using custom host tools (x86).

Note that the binary search involving __ksymtab contents relies on each
section being sorted by symbol name.  This is implemented based on the
input section names, not the names in the ksymtab entries, so this patch
does not interfere with that.

Given that the use of place-relative relocations requires support both in
the toolchain and in the module loader, we cannot enable this feature for
all architectures.  So make it dependent on whether
CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_PREL32_RELOCATIONS is defined.

arch: enable relative relocations for arm64, power and x86

Patch series "add support for relative references in special sections", v10.

This adds support for emitting special sections such as initcall arrays,
PCI fixups and tracepoints as relative references rather than absolute
references.  This reduces the size by 50% on 64-bit architectures, but
more importantly, it removes the need for carrying relocation metadata for
these sections in relocatable kernels (e.g., for KASLR) that needs to be
fixed up at boot time.  On arm64, this reduces the vmlinux footprint of
such a reference by 8x (8 byte absolute reference + 24 byte RELA entry vs
4 byte relative reference)

Patch #3 was sent out before as a single patch.  This series supersedes
the previous submission.  This version makes relative ksymtab entries
dependent on the new Kconfig symbol HAVE_ARCH_PREL32_RELOCATIONS rather
than trying to infer from kbuild test robot replies for which
architectures it should be blacklisted.

Patch #1 introduces the new Kconfig symbol HAVE_ARCH_PREL32_RELOCATIONS,
and sets it for the main architectures that are expected to benefit the
most from this feature, i.e., 64-bit architectures or ones that use
runtime relocations.

Patch #2 add support for #define'ing __DISABLE_EXPORTS to get rid of
ksymtab/kcrctab sections in decompressor and EFI stub objects when
rebuilding existing C files to run in a different context.

Patches #4 - #6 implement relative references for initcalls, PCI fixups
and tracepoints, respectively, all of which produce sections with order
~1000 entries on an arm64 defconfig kernel with tracing enabled.  This
means we save about 28 KB of vmlinux space for each of these patches.

[From the v7 series blurb, which included the jump_label patches as well]:

  For the arm64 kernel, all patches combined reduce the memory footprint
  of vmlinux by about 1.3 MB (using a config copied from Ubuntu that has
  KASLR enabled), of which ~1 MB is the size reduction of the RELA section
  in .init, and the remaining 300 KB is reduction of .text/.data.

This patch (of 6):

Before updating certain subsystems to use place relative 32-bit
relocations in special sections, to save space and reduce the number of
absolute relocations that need to be processed at runtime by relocatable
kernels, introduce the Kconfig symbol and define it for some architectures
that should be able to support and benefit from it.

6 years agokernel/hung_task.c: allow to set checking interval separately from timeout
Dmitry Vyukov [Wed, 22 Aug 2018 04:55:52 +0000 (21:55 -0700)]
kernel/hung_task.c: allow to set checking interval separately from timeout

Currently task hung checking interval is equal to timeout, as the result
hung is detected anywhere between timeout and 2*timeout.  This is fine for
most interactive environments, but this hurts automated testing setups
(syzbot).  In an automated setup we need to strictly order CPU lockup <
RCU stall < workqueue lockup < task hung < silent loss, so that RCU stall
is not detected as task hung and task hung is not detected as silent
machine loss.  The large variance in task hung detection timeout requires
setting silent machine loss timeout to a very large value (e.g.  if task
hung is 3 mins, then silent loss need to be set to ~7 mins).  The
additional 3 minutes significantly reduce testing efficiency because
usually we crash kernel within a minute, and this can add hours to bug
localization process as it needs to do dozens of tests.

Allow setting checking interval separately from timeout.  This allows to
set timeout to, say, 3 minutes, but checking interval to 10 secs.

The interval is controlled via a new hung_task_check_interval_secs sysctl,
similar to the existing hung_task_timeout_secs sysctl.  The default value
of 0 results in the current behavior: checking interval is equal to
timeout.

6 years agoinclude/asm-generic/bug.h: clarify valid uses of WARN()
Dmitry Vyukov [Wed, 22 Aug 2018 04:55:24 +0000 (21:55 -0700)]
include/asm-generic/bug.h: clarify valid uses of WARN()

Explicitly state that WARN*() should be used only for recoverable kernel
issues/bugs and that it should not be used for any kind of invalid
external inputs or transient conditions.

Motivation: it's a very useful capability to be able to understand if a
particular kernel splat means a kernel bug or simply an invalid user-space
program.  For the former one wants to notify kernel developers, while
notifying kernel developers for the latter is annoying.  Even a kernel
developer may not know what to do with a WARNING in an unfamiliar
subsystem.  This is especially critical for any automated testing systems
that may use panic_on_warn and mail kernel developers.

The clear separation also serves as an additional documentation: is it a
condition that must never occur because of additional checks/logic
elsewhere?  or is it simply a check for invalid inputs or unfortunate
conditions?

Use of pr_err() for user messages also leads to better error messages.
"Something is wrong in file foo on line X" is not particularly useful
message for end user.  pr_err() forces developers to write more meaningful
error messages for user.

As of now we are almost there.  We are doing systematic kernel testing
with panic_on_warn and are not seeing massive amounts of false positives.
But every now and then another WARN on ENOMEM or invalid inputs pops up
and leads to a lengthy argument each time.  The goal of this change is to
officially document the rules.
