Support for GFP_NO{FS,IO} and __GFP_NOFAIL has been implemented by previous patches so we can allow the support for kvmalloc. This will allow some external users to simplify or completely remove their helpers. GFP_NOWAIT semantic hasn't been supported so far but it hasn't been explicitly documented so let's add a note about that. ceph_kvmalloc is the first helper to be dropped and changed to kvmalloc.

Dave Chinner has mentioned that some of the xfs code would benefit from kvmalloc support for __GFP_NOFAIL because they have allocations that cannot fail and they do not fit into a single page. The large part of the vmalloc implementation already complies with the given gfp flags so there is no work for those to be done. The area and page table allocations are an exception to that. Implement a retry loop for those. Add a short sleep before retrying. 1 jiffy is a completely random timeout. Ideally the retry would wait for an explicit event - e.g. a change to the vmalloc space change if the failure was caused by the space fragmentation or depletion. But there are multiple different reasons to retry and this could become much more complex. Keep the retry simple for now and just sleep to prevent from hogging CPUs.

Patch series "extend vmalloc support for constrained allocations", v2. Based on a recent discussion with Dave and Neil [1] I have tried to implement NOFS, NOIO, NOFAIL support for the vmalloc to make life of kvmalloc users easier. A requirement for NOFAIL support for kvmalloc was new to me but this seems to be really needed by the xfs code. NOFS/NOIO was a known and a long term problem which was hoped to be handled by the scope API. Those scope should have been used at the reclaim recursion boundaries both to document them and also to remove the necessity of NOFS/NOIO constrains for all allocations within that scope. Instead workarounds were developed to wrap a single allocation instead (like ceph_kvmalloc). First patch implements NOFS/NOIO support for vmalloc. The second one adds NOFAIL support and the third one bundles all together into kvmalloc and drops ceph_kvmalloc which can use kvmalloc directly now. [1] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/163184741778.29351.16920832234899124642.stgit@noble.brown This patch (of 4): vmalloc historically hasn't supported GFP_NO{FS,IO} requests because page table allocations do not support externally provided gfp mask and performed GFP_KERNEL like allocations. Since few years we have scope (memalloc_no{fs,io}_{save,restore}) APIs to enforce NOFS and NOIO constrains implicitly to all allocators within the scope. There was a hope that those scopes would be defined on a higher level when the reclaim recursion boundary starts/stops (e.g. when a lock required during the memory reclaim is required etc.). It seems that not all NOFS/NOIO users have adopted this approach and instead they have taken a workaround approach to wrap a single [k]vmalloc allocation by a scope API. These workarounds do not serve the purpose of a better reclaim recursion documentation and reduction of explicit GFP_NO{FS,IO} usege so let's just provide them with the semantic they are asking for without a need for workarounds. Add support for GFP_NOFS and GFP_NOIO to vmalloc directly. All internal allocations already comply with the given gfp_mask. The only current exception is vmap_pages_range which maps kernel page tables. Infer the proper scope API based on the given gfp mask.

This reverts commit 2618c60b ("dma: make dma pool to use kmalloc_node"). While working myself into the dmapool code I've found this little odd kmalloc_node(). What basically happens here is that we allocate the housekeeping structure on the numa node where the device is attached to. Since the device is never doing DMA to or from that memory this doesn't seem to make sense at all. So while this doesn't seem to cause much harm it's probably cleaner to revert the change for consistency. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20211221110724.97664-1-christian.koenig@amd.comSigned-off-by:

Check user page table entries at the time they are added and removed. Allows to synchronously catch memory corruption issues related to double mapping. When a pte for an anonymous page is added into page table, we verify that this pte does not already point to a file backed page, and vice versa if this is a file backed page that is being added we verify that this page does not have an anonymous mapping We also enforce that read-only sharing for anonymous pages is allowed (i.e. cow after fork). All other sharing must be for file pages. Page table check allows to protect and debug cases where "struct page" metadata became corrupted for some reason. For example, when refcnt or mapcount become invalid. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20211221154650.1047963-4-pasha.tatashin@soleen.comSigned-off-by:

Patch series "page table check", v3. Ensure that some memory corruptions are prevented by checking at the time of insertion of entries into user page tables that there is no illegal sharing. We have recently found a problem [1] that existed in kernel since 4.14. The problem was caused by broken page ref count and led to memory leaking from one process into another. The problem was accidentally detected by studying a dump of one process and noticing that one page contains memory that should not belong to this process. There are some other page->_refcount related problems that were recently fixed: [2], [3] which potentially could also lead to illegal sharing. In addition to hardening refcount [4] itself, this work is an attempt to prevent this class of memory corruption issues. It uses a simple state machine that is independent from regular MM logic to check for illegal sharing at time pages are inserted and removed from page tables.

In most places, however, we first configure the page metadata and then insert entries into the page table. Page table check, will use the information from struct page to verify the type of entry is inserted. Change the order in all places to first update struct page, and later to update page table. This means that we first do calls that may change the type of page (anon or file): page_move_anon_rmap page_add_anon_rmap do_page_add_anon_rmap page_add_new_anon_rmap page_add_file_rmap hugepage_add_anon_rmap hugepage_add_new_anon_rmap And after that do calls that add entries to the page table: set_huge_pte_at set_pte_at Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20211221154650.1047963-1-pasha.tatashin@soleen.com Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20211221154650.1047963-2-pasha.tatashin@soleen.comSigned-off-by:

oom-reaper and process_mrelease system call should protect against races with exit_mmap which can destroy page tables while they walk the VMA tree. oom-reaper protects from that race by setting MMF_OOM_VICTIM and by relying on exit_mmap to set MMF_OOM_SKIP before taking and releasing mmap_write_lock. process_mrelease has to elevate mm->mm_users to prevent such race. Both oom-reaper and process_mrelease hold mmap_read_lock when walking the VMA tree. The locking rules and mechanisms could be simpler if exit_mmap takes mmap_write_lock while executing destructive operations such as free_pgtables. Change exit_mmap to hold the mmap_write_lock when calling unlock_range, free_pgtables and remove_vma. Note also that because oom-reaper checks VM_LOCKED flag, unlock_range() should not be allowed to race with it. Before this patch, remove_vma used to be called with no locks held, however with fput being executed asynchronously and vm_ops->close not being allowed to hold mmap_lock (it is called from __split_vma with mmap_sem held for write), changing that should be fine. In most cases this lock should be uncontended. Previously, Kirill reported ~4% regression caused by a similar change [1]. We reran the same test and although the individual results are quite noisy, the percentiles show lower regression with 1.6% being the worst case [2]. The change allows oom-reaper and process_mrelease to execute safely under mmap_read_lock without worries that exit_mmap might destroy page tables from under them.

While forking a process with high number (64K) of named anonymous vmas the overhead caused by strdup() is noticeable. Experiments with ARM64 Android device show up to 40% performance regression when forking a process with 64k unpopulated anonymous vmas using the max name lengths vs the same process with the same number of anonymous vmas having no name. Introduce anon_vma_name refcounted structure to avoid the overhead of copying vma names during fork() and when splitting named anonymous vmas. When a vma is duplicated, instead of copying the name we increment the refcount of this structure. Multiple vmas can point to the same anon_vma_name as long as they increment the refcount. The name member of anon_vma_name structure is assigned at structure allocation time and is never changed. If vma name changes then the refcount of the original structure is dropped, a new anon_vma_name structure is allocated to hold the new name and the vma pointer is updated to point to the new structure. With this approach the fork() performance regressions is reduced 3-4x times and with usecases using more reasonable number of VMAs (a few thousand) the regressions is not measurable.

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.

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.

Move the code that walks vmas in a virtual address range into a function that takes a function pointer as a parameter. The only caller for now is sys_madvise, which uses it to call madvise_vma_behavior on each vma, but the next patch will add an additional caller. Move handling all vma behaviors inside madvise_behavior, and rename it to madvise_vma_behavior. Move the code that updates the flags on a vma, including splitting or merging the vma as necessary, into a new function called madvise_update_vma. The next patch will add support for updating a new anon_name field as well. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20211019215511.3771969-1-surenb@google.comSigned-off-by: -

The kvmalloc* allocation functions can fallback to vmalloc allocations and more often on long running machines. In addition the kernel does have __GFP_ACCOUNT kvmalloc* calls. So, often on long running machines, the memory.stat does not tell the complete picture which type of memory is charged to the memcg. So add a per-memcg vmalloc stat.

Commit 11192d9c ("memcg: flush stats only if updated") added tracking of memcg stats updates which is used by the readers to flush only if the updates are over a certain threshold. However each individual update can correspond to a large value change for a given stat. For example adding or removing a hugepage to an LRU changes the stat by thp_nr_pages (512 on x86_64). Treating the update related to THP as one can keep the stat off, in theory, by (thp_nr_pages * nr_cpus * CHARGE_BATCH) before flush. To handle such scenarios, this patch adds consideration of the stat update value as well instead of just the update event. In addition let the asyn flusher unconditionally flush the stats to put time limit on the stats skew and hopefully a lot less readers would need to flush.

Our container agent wants to know when a container exits if it was OOM killed or not to report to the user. We use memory.oom.group = 1 to ensure that OOM kills within the container's cgroup kill everything. Existing memory.events are insufficient for knowing if this triggered: 1) Our current approach reads memory.events oom_kill and reports the container was killed if the value is non-zero. This is erroneous in some cases where containers create their children cgroups with memory.oom.group=1 as such OOM kills will get counted against the container cgroup's oom_kill counter despite not actually OOM killing the entire container. 2) Reading memory.events.local will fail to identify OOM kills in leaf cgroups (that don't set memory.oom.group) within the container cgroup. This patch adds a new oom_group_kill event when memory.oom.group triggers to allow userspace to cleanly identify when an entire cgroup is oom killed.

Concurrently, A is deleted from @list through shmem_evict_inode() since last reference counter of inode is dropped by other thread. Then the @list is corrupted. 2) A->B->C ^ ^ | | evict pos (drop) We should make sure the inode is either on the global list or deleted from any local list before iput().

The current behavior of memory failure is to truncate the page cache regardless of dirty or clean. If the page is dirty the later access will get the obsolete data from disk without any notification to the users. This may cause silent data loss. It is even worse for shmem since shmem is in-memory filesystem, truncating page cache means discarding data blocks. The later read would return all zero. The right approach is to keep the corrupted page in page cache, any later access would return error for syscalls or SIGBUS for page fault, until the file is truncated, hole punched or removed. The regular storage backed filesystems would be more complicated so this patch is focused on shmem. This also unblock the support for soft offlining shmem THP.

When BUG_ON check for THP migration entry, the existing code only check thp_migration_supported case, but not for !thp_migration_supported case. If !thp_migration_supported() and !pmd_present(), the original code may dead loop in theory. To make the BUG_ON check consistent, we need catch both cases. Move the BUG_ON check one step earlier, because if the bug happen we should know it instead of depend on FOLL_MIGRATION been used by caller. Because pmdval instead of *pmd is read by the is_pmd_migration_entry() check, the existing code don't help to avoid useless locking within pmd_migration_entry_wait(), so remove that check.

As this happens after the memory is zeroed by the slab allocator when init_on_free is enabled, the memory coming out of quarantine is not properly zeroed.

Because mm/slab_common.c is not instrumented with software KASAN modes, it is not possible to detect use-after-free of the kmem_cache passed into kmem_cache_destroy(). In particular, because of the s->refcount-- and subsequent early return if non-zero, KASAN would never be able to see the double-free via kmem_cache_free(kmem_cache, s). To be able to detect a double-kmem_cache_destroy(), check accessibility of the kmem_cache, and in case of failure return early. While KASAN_HW_TAGS is able to detect such bugs, by checking accessibility and returning early we fail more gracefully and also avoid corrupting reused objects (where tags mismatch). A recent case of a double-kmem_cache_destroy() was detected by KFENCE: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/0000000000003f654905c168b09d@google.com, which was not detectable by software KASAN modes.
