mm/page_ext.c: check if page_ext is not prepared

2017-11-24T07:37:05+00:00

commit e492080e640c2d1235ddf3441cae634cfffef7e1 upstream.

online_page_ext() and page_ext_init() allocate page_ext for each
section, but they do not allocate if the first PFN is !pfn_present(pfn)
or !pfn_valid(pfn).  Then section->page_ext remains as NULL.
lookup_page_ext checks NULL only if CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is enabled.  For a
valid PFN, __set_page_owner will try to get page_ext through
lookup_page_ext.  Without CONFIG_DEBUG_VM lookup_page_ext will misuse
NULL pointer as value 0.  This incurrs invalid address access.

This is the panic example when PFN 0x100000 is not valid but PFN
0x13FC00 is being used for page_ext.  section->page_ext is NULL,
get_entry returned invalid page_ext address as 0x1DFA000 for a PFN
0x13FC00.

To avoid this panic, CONFIG_DEBUG_VM should be removed so that page_ext
will be checked at all times.

mm/page_alloc.c: broken deferred calculation

2017-11-24T07:37:05+00:00

commit d135e5750205a21a212a19dbb05aeb339e2cbea7 upstream.

In reset_deferred_meminit() we determine number of pages that must not
be deferred.  We initialize pages for at least 2G of memory, but also
pages for reserved memory in this node.

The reserved memory is determined in this function:
memblock_reserved_memory_within(), which operates over physical
addresses, and returns size in bytes.  However, reset_deferred_meminit()
assumes that that this function operates with pfns, and returns page
count.

The result is that in the best case machine boots slower than expected
due to initializing more pages than needed in single thread, and in the
worst case panics because fewer than needed pages are initialized early.

mm/pagewalk.c: report holes in hugetlb ranges

2017-11-24T07:37:04+00:00

commit 373c4557d2aa362702c4c2d41288fb1e54990b7c upstream.

This matters at least for the mincore syscall, which will otherwise copy
uninitialized memory from the page allocator to userspace.  It is
probably also a correctness error for /proc/$pid/pagemap, but I haven't
tested that.

Removing the `walk->hugetlb_entry` condition in walk_hugetlb_range() has
no effect because the caller already checks for that.

This only reports holes in hugetlb ranges to callers who have specified
a hugetlb_entry callback.

This issue was found using an AFL-based fuzzer.

mm, swap: fix race between swap count continuation operations

2017-11-03T14:39:19+00:00

One page may store a set of entries of the sis->swap_map
(swap_info_struct->swap_map) in multiple swap clusters.

If some of the entries has sis->swap_map[offset] > SWAP_MAP_MAX,
multiple pages will be used to store the set of entries of the
sis->swap_map.  And the pages are linked with page->lru.  This is called
swap count continuation.  To access the pages which store the set of
entries of the sis->swap_map simultaneously, previously, sis->lock is
used.  But to improve the scalability of __swap_duplicate(), swap
cluster lock may be used in swap_count_continued() now.  This may race
with add_swap_count_continuation() which operates on a nearby swap
cluster, in which the sis->swap_map entries are stored in the same page.

The race can cause wrong swap count in practice, thus cause unfreeable
swap entries or software lockup, etc.

To fix the race, a new spin lock called cont_lock is added to struct
swap_info_struct to protect the swap count continuation page list.  This
is a lock at the swap device level, so the scalability isn't very well.
But it is still much better than the original sis->lock, because it is
only acquired/released when swap count continuation is used.  Which is
considered rare in practice.  If it turns out that the scalability
becomes an issue for some workloads, we can split the lock into some
more fine grained locks.

mm/huge_memory.c: deposit page table when copying a PMD migration entry

2017-11-03T14:39:19+00:00

We need to deposit pre-allocated PTE page table when a PMD migration
entry is copied in copy_huge_pmd().  Otherwise, we will leak the

zap_huge_pmd().

userfaultfd: hugetlbfs: prevent UFFDIO_COPY to fill beyond the end of i_size

mmap() can still succeed beyond the end of the i_size after vmtruncate
zapped vmas in those ranges, but the faults must not succeed, and that
includes UFFDIO_COPY.

We could differentiate the retval to userland to represent a SIGBUS like
a page fault would do (vs SIGSEGV), but it doesn't seem very useful and
we'd need to pick a random retval as there's no meaningful syscall
retval that would differentiate from SIGSEGV and SIGBUS, there's just
-EFAULT.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

2017-11-02T10:10:55+00:00

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

mm, percpu: add support for __GFP_NOWARN flag

2017-10-19T12:13:49+00:00

Add an option for pcpu_alloc() to support __GFP_NOWARN flag.
Currently, we always throw a warning when size or alignment
is unsupported (and also dump stack on failed allocation
requests). The warning itself is harmless since we return
NULL anyway for any failed request, which callers are
required to handle anyway. However, it becomes harmful when
panic_on_warn is set.

The rationale for the WARN() in pcpu_alloc() is that it can
be tracked when larger than supported allocation requests are
made such that allocations limits can be tweaked if warranted.
This makes sense for in-kernel users, however, there are users
of pcpu allocator where allocation size is derived from user
space requests, e.g. when creating BPF maps. In these cases,
the requests should fail gracefully without throwing a splat.

The current work-around was to check allocation size against
the upper limit of PCPU_MIN_UNIT_SIZE from call-sites for
bailing out prior to a call to pcpu_alloc() in order to
avoid throwing the WARN(). This is bad in multiple ways since
PCPU_MIN_UNIT_SIZE is an implementation detail, and having
the checks on call-sites only complicates the code for no
good reason. Thus, lets fix it generically by supporting the
__GFP_NOWARN flag that users can then use with calling the
__alloc_percpu_gfp() helper instead.

mm, swap: use page-cluster as max window of VMA based swap readahead

2017-10-13T23:18:33+00:00

When the VMA based swap readahead was introduced, a new knob

  /sys/kernel/mm/swap/vma_ra_max_order

was added as the max window of VMA swap readahead.  This is to make it
possible to use different max window for VMA based readahead and
original physical readahead.  But Minchan Kim pointed out that this will
cause a regression because setting page-cluster sysctl to zero cannot
disable swap readahead with the change.

To fix the regression, the page-cluster sysctl is used as the max window
of both the VMA based swap readahead and original physical swap
readahead.  If more fine grained control is needed in the future, more
knobs can be added as the subordinate knobs of the page-cluster sysctl.

The vma_ra_max_order knob is deleted.  Because the knob was introduced
in v4.14-rc1, and this patch is targeting being merged before v4.14
releasing, there should be no existing users of this newly added ABI.
