smp_rescan_cpus() is called without the device_hotplug_lock, which can lead to a dedlock when a new CPU is found and immediately set online by a udev rule. This was observed on an older kernel version, where the cpu_hotplug_begin() loop was still present, and it resulted in hanging chcpu and systemd-udev processes. This specific deadlock will not show on current kernels. However, there may be other possible deadlocks, and since smp_rescan_cpus() can still trigger a CPU hotplug operation, the device_hotplug_lock should be held. For reference, this was the deadlock with the old cpu_hotplug_begin() loop: chcpu (rescan) systemd-udevd echo 1 > /sys/../rescan -> smp_rescan_cpus() -> (*) get_online_cpus() (increases refcount) -> smp_add_present_cpu() (new CPU found) -> register_cpu() -> device_add() -> udev "add" event triggered -----------> udev rule sets CPU online -> echo 1 > /sys/.../online -> lock_device_hotplug_sysfs() (this is missing in rescan path) -> device_online() -> (**) device_lock(new CPU dev) -> cpu_up() -> cpu_hotplug_begin() (loops until refcount == 0) -> deadlock with (*) -> bus_probe_device() -> device_attach() -> device_lock(new CPU dev) -> deadlock with (**) Fix this by taking the device_hotplug_lock in the CPU rescan path.

The ASCE of an mm_struct can be modified after a task has been created, e.g. via crst_table_downgrade for a compat process. The active_mm logic to avoid the switch_mm call if the next task is a kernel thread can lead to a situation where switch_mm is called where 'prev == next' is true but 'prev->context.asce == next->context.asce' is not. This can lead to a situation where a CPU uses the outdated ASCE to run a task. The result can be a crash, endless loops and really subtle problem due to TLBs being created with an invalid ASCE.

Right now the early machine detection code check stsi 3.2.2 for "KVM" and set MACHINE_IS_VM if this is different. As the console detection uses diagnose 8 if MACHINE_IS_VM returns true this will crash Linux early for any non z/VM system that sets a different value than KVM. So instead of assuming z/VM, do not set any of MACHINE_IS_LPAR, MACHINE_IS_VM, or MACHINE_IS_KVM.

The conversion to use a structure for mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_*() unintentionally changed the usage in try_to_unmap_one() to init the 'struct mmu_notifier_range' with vma->vm_start instead of @address, i.e. it invalidates the wrong address range.

Nevertheless, the possibility exists and so it's best to avoid the problem. This patch flags a zone as needing a kswapd using the, surprisingly, unused zone flag field. The flag is read without the lock held to do the wakeup. It's possible that the flag setting context is not the same as the flag clearing context or for small races to occur. However, each race possibility is harmless and there is no visible degredation in fragmentation treatment. While zone->flag could have continued to be unused, there is potential for moving some existing fields into the flags field instead. Particularly read-mostly ones like zone->initialized and zone->contiguous.

This reverts b43a9990 The reverted commit caused issues with migration and poisoning of anon huge pages.

It used i_mmap_rwsem for this purpose with the idea that this could also be used to address truncate/page fault races with another patch. Further analysis has determined that i_mmap_rwsem can not be used to address all these hugetlbfs synchronization issues. Therefore, revert this patch while working an another approach to the underlying issues.

LTP proc01 testcase has been observed to rarely trigger crashes on arm64: page_mapped+0x78/0xb4 stable_page_flags+0x27c/0x338 kpageflags_read+0xfc/0x164 proc_reg_read+0x7c/0xb8 __vfs_read+0x58/0x178 vfs_read+0x90/0x14c SyS_read+0x60/0xc0 The issue is that page_mapped() assumes that if compound page is not huge, then it must be THP. But if this is 'normal' compound page (COMPOUND_PAGE_DTOR), then following loop can keep running (for HPAGE_PMD_NR iterations) until it tries to read from memory that isn't mapped and triggers a panic: for (i = 0; i < hpage_nr_pages(page); i++) { if (atomic_read(&page[i]._mapcount) >= 0) return true; } I could replicate this on x86 (v4.20-rc4-98-g60b54823) only with a custom kernel module [1] which: - allocates compound page (PAGEC) of order 1 - allocates 2 normal pages (COPY), which are initialized to 0xff (to satisfy _mapcount >= 0) - 2 PAGEC page structs are copied to address of first COPY page - second page of COPY is marked as not present - call to page_mapped(COPY) now triggers fault on access to 2nd COPY page at offset 0x30 (_mapcount) [1] https://github.com/jstancek/reproducers/blob/master/kernel/page_mapped_crash/repro.c Fix the loop to iterate for "1 << compound_order" pages.

Right now tag-based KASAN can retag the memory that is reallocated via krealloc and return a differently tagged pointer even if the same slab object gets used and no reallocated technically happens. There are a few issues with this approach. One is that krealloc callers can't rely on comparing the return value with the passed argument to check whether reallocation happened. Another is that if a caller knows that no reallocation happened, that it can access object memory through the old pointer, which leads to false positives. Look at nf_ct_ext_add() to see an example. Fix this by keeping the same tag if the memory don't actually gets reallocated during krealloc.

That in turn hits a memory limit reclaim and the memcg reclaim for legacy controller is waiting on the writeback but that is never going to finish because the writeback itself is waiting for the page locked in the #PF path. So this is essentially ABBA deadlock: lock_page(A) SetPageWriteback(A) unlock_page(A) lock_page(B) lock_page(B) pte_alloc_pne shrink_page_list wait_on_page_writeback(A) SetPageWriteback(B) unlock_page(B) # flush A, B to clear the writeback This accumulating of more pages to flush is used by several filesystems to generate a more optimal IO patterns. Waiting for the writeback in legacy memcg controller is a workaround for pre-mature OOM killer invocations because there is no dirty IO throttling available for the controller. There is no easy way around that unfortunately. Therefore fix this specific issue by pre-allocating the page table outside of the page lock. We have that handy infrastructure for that already so simply reuse the fault-around pattern which already does this.

It is easy to trigger this with CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY_PAGESPAN=y, usercopy: Kernel memory overwrite attempt detected to spans multiple pages (offset 0, size 23)! kernel BUG at mm/usercopy.c:102! For example, print_worker_info char name[WQ_NAME_LEN] = { }; char desc[WORKER_DESC_LEN] = { }; probe_kernel_read(name, wq->name, sizeof(name) - 1); probe_kernel_read(desc, worker->desc, sizeof(desc) - 1); __copy_from_user_inatomic check_object_size check_heap_object check_page_span This is because on-stack variables could cross PAGE_SIZE boundary, and failed this check, if (likely(((unsigned long)ptr & (unsigned long)PAGE_MASK) == ((unsigned long)end & (unsigned long)PAGE_MASK))) ptr = FFFF889007D7EFF8 end = FFFF889007D7F00E Hence, fix it by checking if it is a stack object first.

Commit 5eed6f1d ("fork,memcg: fix crash in free_thread_stack on memcg charge fail") fixes a crash caused due to failed memcg charge of the kernel stack. However the fix misses the cached_stacks case which this patch fixes. So, the same crash can happen if the memcg charge of a cached stack is failed.

This patch includes some fixes and cleanup for idle-page writeback. 1. writeback_limit interface Now writeback_limit interface is rather conusing. For example, once writeback limit budget is exausted, admin can see 0 from /sys/block/zramX/writeback_limit which is same semantic with disable writeback_limit at this moment. IOW, admin cannot tell that zero came from disable writeback limit or exausted writeback limit. To make the interface clear, let's sepatate enable of writeback limit to another knob - /sys/block/zram0/writeback_limit_enable * before: while true : # to re-enable writeback limit once previous one is used up echo 0 > /sys/block/zram0/writeback_limit echo $((200<<20)) > /sys/block/zram0/writeback_limit .. .. # used up the writeback limit budget * new # To enable writeback limit, from the beginning, admin should # enable it. echo $((200<<20)) > /sys/block/zram0/writeback_limit echo 1 > /sys/block/zram/0/writeback_limit_enable while true : echo $((200<<20)) > /sys/block/zram0/writeback_limit .. .. # used up the writeback limit budget It's much strightforward. 2. fix condition check idle/huge writeback mode check The mode in writeback_store is not bit opeartion any more so no need to use bit operations. Furthermore, current condition check is broken in that it does writeback every pages regardless of huge/idle. 3. clean up idle_store No need to use goto.

This changes the fork(2) syscall to record the process start_time after initializing the basic task structure but still before making the new process visible to user-space. Technically, we could record the start_time anytime during fork(2). But this might lead to scenarios where a start_time is recorded long before a process becomes visible to user-space. For instance, with userfaultfd(2) and TLS, user-space can delay the execution of fork(2) for an indefinite amount of time (and will, if this causes network access, or similar). By recording the start_time late, it much closer reflects the point in time where the process becomes live and can be observed by other processes. Lastly, this makes it much harder for user-space to predict and control the start_time they get assigned. Previously, user-space could fork a process and stall it in copy_thread_tls() before its pid is allocated, but after its start_time is recorded. This can be misused to later-on cycle through PIDs and resume the stalled fork(2) yielding a process that has the same pid and start_time as a process that existed before. This can be used to circumvent security systems that identify processes by their pid+start_time combination. Even though user-space was always aware that start_time recording is flaky (but several projects are known to still rely on start_time-based identification), changing the start_time to be recorded late will help mitigate existing attacks and make it much harder for user-space to control the start_time a process gets assigned.

The handle_irq_perbit function loop every bit in hwirq local variable. handle_irq_perbit(hwirq) { for_everyt_bit_in(hwirq) { handle_domain_irq() ->irq_exit() ->invoke_softirq() ->__do_softirq() ->local_irq_enable() // Here will cause new interrupt. } } When new interrupt coming at local_irq_enable, it will finish another interrupt handler and pull down the interrupt source. But hwirq is the local variable for handle_irq_perbit(), it can't get new interrupt controller pending reg status. So we need update hwirq with pending reg in every loop. Also change write_relax to writel could prevent stw from fast retire. When local_irq is enabled, intc regs is really set-in.

For I/O access, 810/807 store instruction fast retire will cause wrong primitive. For example: stw (clear interrupt source) stw (unmask interrupt controller) enable interrupt stw is fast retire instruction. When PC is run at enable interrupt stage, the clear interrupt source hasn't finished. It will cause another wrong irq-enter. So use mb() to prevent above.

This patch fixes a memory corruption that occurred in the qcom-nandc driver since it was converted to nand_scan(). On boot, an affected device will panic from a NPE at a weird place: | Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0 | pgd = (ptrval) | [00000000] *pgd=00000000 | Internal error: Oops: 80000005 [#1] SMP ARM | CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 4.19.9 #0 | Hardware name: Generic DT based system | PC is at (null) | LR is at nand_block_isbad+0x90/0xa4 | pc : [<00000000>] lr : [<c0592240>] psr: 80000013 | sp : cf839d40 ip : 00000000 fp : cfae9e20 | r10: cf815810 r9 : 00000000 r8 : 00000000 | r7 : 00000000 r6 : 00000000 r5 : 00000001 r4 : cf815810 | r3 : 00000000 r2 : cfae9810 r1 : ffffffff r0 : cf815810 | Flags: Nzcv IRQs on FIQs on Mode SVC_32 ISA ARM Segment none | Control: 10c5387d Table: 8020406a DAC: 00000051 | Process swapper/0 (pid: 1, stack limit = 0x(ptrval)) | [<c0592240>] (nand_block_isbad) from [<c0580a94>] | [<c0580a94>] (allocate_partition) from [<c05811e4>] | [<c05811e4>] (add_mtd_partitions) from [<c0581164>] | [<c0581164>] (parse_mtd_partitions) from [<c057def4>] | [<c057def4>] (mtd_device_parse_register) from [<c059d274>] | [<c059d274>] (qcom_nandc_probe) from [<c0567f00>] The problem is that the nand_scan()'s qcom_nand_attach_chip callback is updating the nandc->max_cwperpage from 1 to 4. This causes the sg_init_table of clear_bam_transaction() in the driver's qcom_nandc_block_bad() to memset much more than what was initially allocated by alloc_bam_transaction(). This patch restores the old behavior by reallocating the shared bam transaction alloc_bam_transaction() after the chip was identified, but before mtd_device_parse_register() (which is an alias for mtd_device_register() - see panic) gets called. This fixes the corruption and the driver is working again.
