sched_getaffinity: don't assume 'cpumask_size()' is fully initialized

2023-04-06T10:10:40+00:00

[ Upstream commit 6015b1aca1a233379625385feb01dd014aca60b5 ]

The getaffinity() system call uses 'cpumask_size()' to decide how big
the CPU mask is - so far so good.  It is indeed the allocation size of a
cpumask.

But the code also assumes that the whole allocation is initialized
without actually doing so itself.  That's wrong, because we might have
fixed-size allocations (making copying and clearing more efficient), but
not all of it is then necessarily used if 'nr_cpu_ids' is smaller.

Having checked other users of 'cpumask_size()', they all seem to be ok,
either using it purely for the allocation size, or explicitly zeroing
the cpumask before using the size in bytes to copy it.

See for example the ublk_ctrl_get_queue_affinity() function that uses
the proper 'zalloc_cpumask_var()' to make sure that the whole mask is
cleared, whether the storage is on the stack or if it was an external
allocation.

Fix this by just zeroing the allocation before using it.  Do the same
for the compat version of sched_getaffinity(), which had the same logic.

Also, for consistency, make sched_getaffinity() use 'cpumask_bits()' to
access the bits.  For a cpumask_var_t, it ends up being a pointer to the
same data either way, but it's just a good idea to treat it like you
would a 'cpumask_t'.  The compat case already did that.

sched/fair: Sanitize vruntime of entity being migrated

2023-03-30T10:49:30+00:00

commit a53ce18cacb477dd0513c607f187d16f0fa96f71 upstream.

Commit 829c1651e9c4 ("sched/fair: sanitize vruntime of entity being placed")
fixes an overflowing bug, but ignore a case that se->exec_start is reset
after a migration.

For fixing this case, we delay the reset of se->exec_start after
placing the entity which se->exec_start to detect long sleeping task.

In order to take into account a possible divergence between the clock_task
of 2 rqs, we increase the threshold to around 104 days.

panic: Consolidate open-coded panic_on_warn checks

2023-01-24T06:24:41+00:00

commit 79cc1ba7badf9e7a12af99695a557e9ce27ee967 upstream.

Several run-time checkers (KASAN, UBSAN, KFENCE, KCSAN, sched) roll
their own warnings, and each check "panic_on_warn". Consolidate this
into a single function so that future instrumentation can be added in
a single location.

sched/core: Fix arch_scale_freq_tick() on tickless systems

2023-01-18T10:58:26+00:00

[ Upstream commit 7fb3ff22ad8772bbf0e3ce1ef3eb7b09f431807f ]

In order for the scheduler to be frequency invariant we measure the
ratio between the maximum CPU frequency and the actual CPU frequency.

During long tickless periods of time the calculations that keep track
of that might overflow, in the function scale_freq_tick():

  if (check_shl_overflow(acnt, 2*SCHED_CAPACITY_SHIFT, &acnt))
          goto error;

eventually forcing the kernel to disable the feature for all CPUs,
and show the warning message:

   "Scheduler frequency invariance went wobbly, disabling!".

Let's avoid that by limiting the frequency invariant calculations
to CPUs with regular tick.

sched/core: Fix use-after-free bug in dup_user_cpus_ptr()

2023-01-18T10:58:21+00:00

commit 87ca4f9efbd7cc649ff43b87970888f2812945b8 upstream.

Since commit 07ec77a1d4e8 ("sched: Allow task CPU affinity to be
restricted on asymmetric systems"), the setting and clearing of
user_cpus_ptr are done under pi_lock for arm64 architecture. However,
dup_user_cpus_ptr() accesses user_cpus_ptr without any lock
protection. Since sched_setaffinity() can be invoked from another
process, the process being modified may be undergoing fork() at
the same time.  When racing with the clearing of user_cpus_ptr in
__set_cpus_allowed_ptr_locked(), it can lead to user-after-free and
possibly double-free in arm64 kernel.

Commit 8f9ea86fdf99 ("sched: Always preserve the user requested
cpumask") fixes this problem as user_cpus_ptr, once set, will never
be cleared in a task's lifetime. However, this bug was re-introduced
in commit 851a723e45d1 ("sched: Always clear user_cpus_ptr in
do_set_cpus_allowed()") which allows the clearing of user_cpus_ptr in
do_set_cpus_allowed(). This time, it will affect all arches.

Fix this bug by always clearing the user_cpus_ptr of the newly
cloned/forked task before the copying process starts and check the
user_cpus_ptr state of the source task under pi_lock.

Note to stable, this patch won't be applicable to stable releases.
Just copy the new dup_user_cpus_ptr() function over.

sched/uclamp: Fix fits_capacity() check in feec()

2022-12-31T12:31:54+00:00

[ Upstream commit 244226035a1f9b2b6c326e55ae5188fab4f428cb ]

As reported by Yun Hsiang [1], if a task has its uclamp_min >= 0.8 * 1024,
it'll always pick the previous CPU because fits_capacity() will always
return false in this case.

The new util_fits_cpu() logic should handle this correctly for us beside
more corner cases where similar failures could occur, like when using
UCLAMP_MAX.

We open code uclamp_rq_util_with() except for the clamp() part,
util_fits_cpu() needs the 'raw' values to be passed to it.

Also introduce uclamp_rq_{set, get}() shorthand accessors to get uclamp
value for the rq. Makes the code more readable and ensures the right
rules (use READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE) are respected transparently.

sched: Fix race in task_call_func()

2022-11-14T08:58:32+00:00

There is a very narrow race between schedule() and task_call_func().

  CPU0						CPU1

  __schedule()
    rq_lock();
    prev_state = READ_ONCE(prev->__state);
    if (... && prev_state) {
      deactivate_tasl(rq, prev, ...)
        prev->on_rq = 0;

						task_call_func()
						  raw_spin_lock_irqsave(p->pi_lock);
						  state = READ_ONCE(p->__state);
						  smp_rmb();
						  if (... || p->on_rq) // false!!!
						    rq = __task_rq_lock()

						  ret = func();

    next = pick_next_task();
    rq = context_switch(prev, next)
      prepare_lock_switch()
        spin_release(&__rq_lockp(rq)->dep_map...)

So while the task is on it's way out, it still holds rq->lock for a
little while, and right then task_call_func() comes in and figures it
doesn't need rq->lock anymore (because the task is already dequeued --
but still running there) and then the __set_task_frozen() thing observes
it's holding rq->lock and yells murder.

Avoid this by waiting for p->on_cpu to get cleared, which guarantees
the task is fully finished on the old CPU.

( While arguably the fixes tag is 'wrong' -- none of the previous
  task_call_func() users appears to care for this case. )

sched: Introduce struct balance_callback to avoid CFI mismatches

2022-10-17T14:41:25+00:00

Introduce distinct struct balance_callback instead of performing function
pointer casting which will trip CFI. Avoids warnings as found by Clang's
future -Wcast-function-type-strict option:

In file included from kernel/sched/core.c:84:
kernel/sched/sched.h:1755:15: warning: cast from 'void (*)(struct rq *)' to 'void (*)(struct callback_head *)' converts to incompatible function type [-Wcast-function-type-strict]
        head->func = (void (*)(struct callback_head *))func;
                     ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

No binary differences result from this change.

This patch is a cleanup based on Brad Spengler/PaX Team's modifications
to sched code in their last public patch of grsecurity/PaX based on my
understanding of the code. Changes or omissions from the original code
are mine and don't reflect the original grsecurity/PaX code.

tree for vmas. It it apparently slightly more efficient in its own
right, but is mainly targeted at enabling work to reduce mmap_lock

Liam has identified a number of other tree users in the kernel which
could be beneficially onverted to mapletrees.

Yu Zhao has identified a hard-to-hit but "easy to fix" lockdep splat
at [1]. This has yet to be addressed due to Liam's unfortunately
