This refactors common code of ksize() between the various allocators into slab_common.c: __ksize() is the allocator-specific implementation without instrumentation, whereas ksize() includes the required KASAN logic.

This adds a new header to asm-generic to allow optionally instrumenting architecture-specific asm implementations of bitops. This change includes the required change for x86 as reference and changes the kernel API doc to point to bitops-instrumented.h instead. Rationale: the functions in x86's bitops.h are no longer the kernel API functions, but instead the arch_ prefixed functions, which are then instrumented via bitops-instrumented.h. Other architectures can similarly add support for asm implementations of bitops. The documentation text was derived from x86 and existing bitops asm-generic versions: 1) references to x86 have been removed; 2) as a result, some of the text had to be reworded for clarity and consistency. Tested using lib/test_kasan with bitops tests (pre-requisite patch).

This patch is a pre-requisite for enabling KASAN bitops instrumentation; using static_cpu_has instead of boot_cpu_has avoids instrumentation of test_bit inside the uaccess region. With instrumentation, the KASAN check would otherwise be flagged by objtool. For consistency, kernel/signal.c was changed to mirror this change, however, is never instrumented with KASAN (currently unsupported under x86 32bit).

This adds support for printing stack frame description on invalid stack accesses. The frame description is embedded by the compiler, which is parsed and then pretty-printed. Currently, we can only print the stack frame info for accesses to the task's own stack, but not accesses to other tasks' stacks. Example of what it looks like: page dumped because: kasan: bad access detected addr ffff8880673ef98a is located in stack of task insmod/2008 at offset 106 in frame: kasan_stack_oob+0x0/0xf5 [test_kasan] this frame has 2 objects: [32, 36) 'i' [96, 106) 'stack_array' Memory state around the buggy address: Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=198435 Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190522100048.146841-1-elver@google.comSigned-off-by: Marco Elver <elver@google.com> Reviewed-by: Andrey Ryabinin <aryabinin@virtuozzo.com> Cc: Alexander Potapenko <glider@google.com> Cc: Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@google.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Currently for CONFIG_SLUB, if a memcg kmem cache creation is failed and the corresponding root kmem cache has SLAB_PANIC flag, the kernel will be crashed. This is unnecessary as the kernel can handle the creation failures of memcg kmem caches. Additionally CONFIG_SLAB does not implement this behavior. So, to keep the behavior consistent between SLAB and SLUB, removing the panic for memcg kmem cache creation failures. The root kmem cache creation failure for SLAB_PANIC correctly panics for both SLAB and SLUB.

This avoids any possible type confusion when looking up an object. For example, if a non-slab were to be passed to kfree(), the invalid slab_cache pointer (i.e. overlapped with some other value from the struct page union) would be used for subsequent slab manipulations that could lead to further memory corruption. Since the page is already in cache, adding the PageSlab() check will have nearly zero cost, so add a check and WARN() to virt_to_cache(). Additionally replaces an open-coded virt_to_cache(). To support the failure mode this also updates all callers of virt_to_cache() and cache_from_obj() to handle a NULL cache pointer return value (though note that several already handle this case gracefully).

Patch series "mm/slab: Improved sanity checking". This adds defenses against slab cache confusion (as seen in real-world exploits[1]) and gracefully handles type confusions when trying to look up slab caches from an arbitrary page. (Also is patch 3: new LKDTM tests for these defenses as well as for the existing double-free detection. This patch (of 3): When building under CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENING, it makes sense to perform sanity-checking on the assumed slab cache during kmem_cache_free() to make sure the kernel doesn't mix freelists across slab caches and corrupt memory (as seen in the exploitation of flaws like CVE-2018-9568[1]). Note that the prior code might WARN() but still corrupt memory (i.e. return the assumed cache instead of the owned cache). There is no noticeable performance impact (changes are within noise). Measuring parallel kernel builds, I saw the following with CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED, before and after this patch: before: Run times: 288.85 286.53 287.09 287.07 287.21 Min: 286.53 Max: 288.85 Mean: 287.35 Std Dev: 0.79 after: Run times: 289.58 287.40 286.97 287.20 287.01 Min: 286.97 Max: 289.58 Mean: 287.63 Std Dev: 0.99 Delta: 0.1% which is well below the standard deviation [1] https://github.com/ThomasKing2014/slides/raw/master/Building%20universal%20Android%20rooting%20with%20a%20type%20confusion%20vulnerability.pdf Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190530045017.15252-2-keescook@chromium.orgSigned-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Cc: Pekka Enberg <penberg@kernel.org> Cc: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Cc: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@lge.com> Cc: Matthew Wilcox <willy@infradead.org> Cc: Alexander Popov <alex.popov@linux.com> Cc: Alexander Potapenko <glider@google.com> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

kmemdup is introduced to duplicate a region of memory in a neat way. Rather than kmalloc/kzalloc + memcpy, which the programmer needs to write the size twice (sometimes lead to mistakes), kmemdup improves readability, leads to smaller code and also reduce the chances of mistakes. Suggestion to use kmemdup rather than using kmalloc/kzalloc + memcpy.

When calling debugfs functions, there is no need to ever check the return value. The function can work or not, but the code logic should never do something different based on this. Also, because there is no need to save the file dentry, remove all of the variables that were being saved, and just recursively delete the whole directory when shutting down, saving a lot of logic and local variables.

ocfs2 file system uses locking_state file under debugfs to dump each ocfs2 file system's dlm lock resources, but the users ever encountered some hang(deadlock) problems in ocfs2 file system. I'd like to add first lock wait time in locking_state file, which can help the upper scripts detect these deadlock problems via comparing the first lock wait time with the current time.

Add locking filter debugfs file, which is used to filter lock resources dump from locking_state debugfs file. We use d_filter_secs field to filter lock resources dump, the default d_filter_secs(0) value filters nothing, otherwise, only dump the last N seconds active lock resources. This enhancement can avoid dumping lots of old records. The d_filter_secs value can be changed via locking_filter file.

ocfs2 file system uses locking_state file under debugfs to dump each ocfs2 file system's dlm lock resources, but the dlm lock resources in memory are becoming more and more after the files were touched by the user. it will become a bit difficult to analyze these dlm lock resource records in locking_state file by the upper scripts, though some files are not active for now, which were accessed long time ago. Then, I'd like to add last pr/ex unlock times in locking_state file for each dlm lock resource record, the the upper scripts can use last unlock time to filter inactive dlm lock resource record.

One of the more common cases of allocation size calculations is finding the size of a structure that has a zero-sized array at the end, along with memory for some number of elements for that array. For example: struct dlm_migratable_lockres { ... struct dlm_migratable_lock ml[0]; // 16 bytes each, begins at byte 112 }; Make use of the struct_size() helper instead of an open-coded version in order to avoid any potential type mistakes. So, replace the following form: sizeof(struct dlm_migratable_lockres) + (mres->num_locks * sizeof(struct dlm_migratable_lock)) with: struct_size(mres, ml, mres->num_locks) Notice that, in this case, variable sz is not necessary, hence it is removed.

There are more swap out, but I think it's within reasonable range when file backed data set doesn't fit into the memory. $ ./thrash 2000 100 2100 5 1 # ANON_MB FILE_EXEC FILE_NOEXEC ROUNDS PROCESSES Allocate 2000 MB anonymous pages active_anon: 1613644, inactive_anon: 348656, active_file: 892, inactive_file: 1384 (kB) pswpout: 7972443, pgpgin: 478615246 Access 100 MB executable file pages Access 2100 MB regular file pages File access time, round 0: 12.165, (sec) active_anon: 1433788, inactive_anon: 478116, active_file: 17896, inactive_file: 24328 (kB) File access time, round 1: 11.493, (sec) active_anon: 1430576, inactive_anon: 477144, active_file: 25440, inactive_file: 26172 (kB) File access time, round 2: 11.455, (sec) active_anon: 1427436, inactive_anon: 476060, active_file: 21112, inactive_file: 28808 (kB) File access time, round 3: 11.454, (sec) active_anon: 1420444, inactive_anon: 473632, active_file: 23216, inactive_file: 35036 (kB) File access time, round 4: 11.479, (sec) active_anon: 1413964, inactive_anon: 471460, active_file: 31728, inactive_file: 32224 (kB) pswpout: 7991449 (+ 19006), pgpgin: 489924366 (+ 11309120) With 4 processes accessing non-overlapping parts of a large file, 30316 pages swapped out with this patch, 5152 pages swapped out without this patch.
