[ Upstream commit 1a62b18d51e5c5ecc0345c85bb9fef870ab721ed ]

Commit 51dedad06b5f ("kasan, slab: make freelist stored without tags")
calls kasan_reset_tag() for off-slab slab management object leading to
freelist being stored non-tagged.

However, cache_grow_begin() calls alloc_slabmgmt() which calls
kmem_cache_alloc_node() assigns a tag for the address and stores it in
the shadow address.  As the result, it causes endless errors below
during boot due to drain_freelist() -&gt; slab_destroy() -&gt;
kasan_slab_free() which compares already untagged freelist against the
stored tag in the shadow address.

Since off-slab slab management object freelist is such a special case,
just store it tagged.  Non-off-slab management object freelist is still
stored untagged which has not been assigned a tag and should not cause
any other troubles with this inconsistency.

The commit 510ded33e075 ("slab: implement slab_root_caches list")
changes the name of the list node within "struct kmem_cache" from "list"
to "root_caches_node", but leaks_show() still use the "list" which
causes a crash when reading /proc/slab_allocators.

You need to have CONFIG_SLAB=y and CONFIG_MEMCG=y to see the problem,
because without MEMCG all slab caches are root caches, and the "list"
node happens to be the right one.

[ Upstream commit 92d1d07daad65c300c7d0b68bbef8867e9895d54 ]

Kmemleak throws endless warnings during boot due to in
__alloc_alien_cache(),

    alc = kmalloc_node(memsize, gfp, node);
    init_arraycache(&amp;alc-&gt;ac, entries, batch);
    kmemleak_no_scan(ac);

Kmemleak does not track the array cache (alc-&gt;ac) but the alien cache
(alc) instead, so let it track the latter by lifting kmemleak_no_scan()
out of init_arraycache().

There is another place that calls init_arraycache(), but
alloc_kmem_cache_cpus() uses the percpu allocation where will never be
considered as a leak.

[ Upstream commit 92d1d07daad65c300c7d0b68bbef8867e9895d54 ]

Kmemleak throws endless warnings during boot due to in
__alloc_alien_cache(),

    alc = kmalloc_node(memsize, gfp, node);
    init_arraycache(&amp;alc-&gt;ac, entries, batch);
    kmemleak_no_scan(ac);

Kmemleak does not track the array cache (alc-&gt;ac) but the alien cache
(alc) instead, so let it track the latter by lifting kmemleak_no_scan()
out of init_arraycache().

There is another place that calls init_arraycache(), but
alloc_kmem_cache_cpus() uses the percpu allocation where will never be
considered as a leak.

commit 6d6ea1e967a246f12cfe2f5fb743b70b2e608d4a upstream.

Patch series "iommu/io-pgtable-arm-v7s: Use DMA32 zone for page tables",
v6.

This is a followup to the discussion in [1], [2].

IOMMUs using ARMv7 short-descriptor format require page tables (level 1
and 2) to be allocated within the first 4GB of RAM, even on 64-bit
systems.

For L1 tables that are bigger than a page, we can just use
__get_free_pages with GFP_DMA32 (on arm64 systems only, arm would still
use GFP_DMA).

For L2 tables that only take 1KB, it would be a waste to allocate a full
page, so we considered 3 approaches:
 1. This series, adding support for GFP_DMA32 slab caches.
 2. genalloc, which requires pre-allocating the maximum number of L2 page
    tables (4096, so 4MB of memory).
 3. page_frag, which is not very memory-efficient as it is unable to reuse
    freed fragments until the whole page is freed. [3]

This series is the most memory-efficient approach.

stable@ note:
  We confirmed that this is a regression, and IOMMU errors happen on 4.19
  and linux-next/master on MT8173 (elm, Acer Chromebook R13). The issue
  most likely starts from commit ad67f5a6545f ("arm64: replace ZONE_DMA
  with ZONE_DMA32"), i.e. 4.15, and presumably breaks a number of Mediatek
  platforms (and maybe others?).

[1] https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/iommu/2018-November/030876.html
[2] https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/iommu/2018-December/031696.html
[3] https://patchwork.codeaurora.org/patch/671639/

This patch (of 3):

IOMMUs using ARMv7 short-descriptor format require page tables to be
allocated within the first 4GB of RAM, even on 64-bit systems.  On arm64,
this is done by passing GFP_DMA32 flag to memory allocation functions.

For IOMMU L2 tables that only take 1KB, it would be a waste to allocate
a full page using get_free_pages, so we considered 3 approaches:
 1. This patch, adding support for GFP_DMA32 slab caches.
 2. genalloc, which requires pre-allocating the maximum number of L2
    page tables (4096, so 4MB of memory).
 3. page_frag, which is not very memory-efficient as it is unable
    to reuse freed fragments until the whole page is freed.

This change makes it possible to create a custom cache in DMA32 zone using
kmem_cache_create, then allocate memory using kmem_cache_alloc.

We do not create a DMA32 kmalloc cache array, as there are currently no
users of kmalloc(..., GFP_DMA32).  These calls will continue to trigger a
warning, as we keep GFP_DMA32 in GFP_SLAB_BUG_MASK.

This implies that calls to kmem_cache_*alloc on a SLAB_CACHE_DMA32
kmem_cache must _not_ use GFP_DMA32 (it is anyway redundant and
unnecessary).

<title>kasan, slab: make freelist stored without tags</title>

Similarly to "kasan, slub: move kasan_poison_slab hook before
page_address", move kasan_poison_slab() before alloc_slabmgmt(), which
calls page_address(), to make page_address() return value to be
non-tagged.  This, combined with calling kasan_reset_tag() for off-slab
slab management object, leads to freelist being stored non-tagged.

Similarly to commit 96fedce27e13 ("kasan: make tag based mode work with
CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY"), we need to reset pointer tags in
__check_heap_object() in mm/slab.c before doing any pointer math.

Callers of __alloc_alien() check for NULL.  We must do the same check in
__alloc_alien_cache to avoid NULL pointer dereferences on allocation
failures.

<title>mm: convert totalram_pages and totalhigh_pages variables to atomic</title>

totalram_pages and totalhigh_pages are made static inline function.

Main motivation was that managed_page_count_lock handling was complicating
things.  It was discussed in length here,
https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/995739/#1181785 So it seemes
better to remove the lock and convert variables to atomic, with preventing
poteintial store-to-read tearing as a bonus.

<title>kasan, mm, arm64: tag non slab memory allocated via pagealloc</title>

<content type='text'>
Tag-based KASAN doesn't check memory accesses through pointers tagged with
0xff.  When page_address is used to get pointer to memory that corresponds
to some page, the tag of the resulting pointer gets set to 0xff, even
though the allocated memory might have been tagged differently.

For slab pages it's impossible to recover the correct tag to return from
page_address, since the page might contain multiple slab objects tagged
with different values, and we can't know in advance which one of them is
going to get accessed.  For non slab pages however, we can recover the tag
in page_address, since the whole page was marked with the same tag.

This patch adds tagging to non slab memory allocated with pagealloc.  To
set the tag of the pointer returned from page_address, the tag gets stored
to page-&gt;flags when the memory gets allocated.
