commit 00206a69ee32f03e6f40837684dcbe475ea02266 upstream.

Since commit ad67b74d2469d9b8 ("printk: hash addresses printed with %p"),
at boot "____ptrval____" is printed instead of actual addresses:

    percpu: Embedded 38 pages/cpu @(____ptrval____) s124376 r0 d31272 u524288

Instead of changing the print to "%px", and leaking kernel addresses,
just remove the print completely, cfr. e.g. commit 071929dbdd865f77
("arm64: Stop printing the virtual memory layout").

coredump: fix race condition between mmget_not_zero()/get_task_mm() and core dumping 2019-04-27T07:36:37+00:00 Andrea Arcangeli aarcange@redhat.com 2019-04-19T00:50:52+00:00 6ff17bc5936e5fab33de8064dc0690f6c8c789ca commit 04f5866e41fb70690e28397487d8bd8eea7d712a upstream. The core dumping code has always run without holding the mmap_sem for writing, despite that is the only way to ensure that the entire vma layout will not change from under it. Only using some signal serialization on the processes belonging to the mm is not nearly enough. This was pointed out earlier. For example in Hugh's post from Jul 2017: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/alpine.LSU.2.11.1707191716030.2055@eggly.anvils "Not strictly relevant here, but a related note: I was very surprised to discover, only quite recently, how handle_mm_fault() may be called without down_read(mmap_sem) - when core dumping. That seems a misguided optimization to me, which would also be nice to correct" In particular because the growsdown and growsup can move the vm_start/vm_end the various loops the core dump does around the vma will not be consistent if page faults can happen concurrently. Pretty much all users calling mmget_not_zero()/get_task_mm() and then taking the mmap_sem had the potential to introduce unexpected side effects in the core dumping code. Adding mmap_sem for writing around the ->core_dump invocation is a viable long term fix, but it requires removing all copy user and page faults and to replace them with get_dump_page() for all binary formats which is not suitable as a short term fix. For the time being this solution manually covers the places that can confuse the core dump either by altering the vma layout or the vma flags while it runs. Once ->core_dump runs under mmap_sem for writing the function mmget_still_valid() can be dropped. Allowing mmap_sem protected sections to run in parallel with the coredump provides some minor parallelism advantage to the swapoff code (which seems to be safe enough by never mangling any vma field and can keep doing swapins in parallel to the core dumping) and to some other corner case. In order to facilitate the backporting I added "Fixes: 86039bd3b4e6" however the side effect of this same race condition in /proc/pid/mem should be reproducible since before 2.6.12-rc2 so I couldn't add any other "Fixes:" because there's no hash beyond the git genesis commit. Because find_extend_vma() is the only location outside of the process context that could modify the "mm" structures under mmap_sem for reading, by adding the mmget_still_valid() check to it, all other cases that take the mmap_sem for reading don't need the new check after mmget_not_zero()/get_task_mm(). The expand_stack() in page fault context also doesn't need the new check, because all tasks under core dumping are frozen.

mm: writeback: use exact memcg dirty counts 2019-04-17T06:38:51+00:00 Greg Thelen gthelen@google.com 2019-04-06T01:39:18+00:00 43f47331a4ce7c335582d9300f62ad583e07d707 commit 0b3d6e6f2dd0a7b697b1aa8c167265908940624b upstream. Since commit a983b5ebee57 ("mm: memcontrol: fix excessive complexity in memory.stat reporting") memcg dirty and writeback counters are managed as: 1) per-memcg per-cpu values in range of [-32..32] 2) per-memcg atomic counter When a per-cpu counter cannot fit in [-32..32] it's flushed to the atomic. Stat readers only check the atomic. Thus readers such as balance_dirty_pages() may see a nontrivial error margin: 32 pages per cpu. Assuming 100 cpus: 4k x86 page_size: 13 MiB error per memcg 64k ppc page_size: 200 MiB error per memcg Considering that dirty+writeback are used together for some decisions the errors double. This inaccuracy can lead to undeserved oom kills. One nasty case is when all per-cpu counters hold positive values offsetting an atomic negative value (i.e. per_cpu[*]=32, atomic=n_cpu*-32). balance_dirty_pages() only consults the atomic and does not consider throttling the next n_cpu*32 dirty pages. If the file_lru is in the 13..200 MiB range then there's absolutely no dirty throttling, which burdens vmscan with only dirty+writeback pages thus resorting to oom kill. It could be argued that tiny containers are not supported, but it's more subtle. It's the amount the space available for file lru that matters. If a container has memory.max-200MiB of non reclaimable memory, then it will also suffer such oom kills on a 100 cpu machine. The following test reliably ooms without this patch.

This avoids the aforementioned oom kills. This does not affect the overhead of memory.stat, which still reads the single atomic counter. Why not use percpu_counter? memcg already handles cpus going offline, so no need for that overhead from percpu_counter. And the percpu_counter spinlocks are more heavyweight than is required. It probably also makes sense to use exact dirty and writeback counters in memcg oom reports. But that is saved for later.

commit 0b3d6e6f2dd0a7b697b1aa8c167265908940624b upstream.

Since commit a983b5ebee57 ("mm: memcontrol: fix excessive complexity in
memory.stat reporting") memcg dirty and writeback counters are managed
as:

 1) per-memcg per-cpu values in range of [-32..32]

 2) per-memcg atomic counter

When a per-cpu counter cannot fit in [-32..32] it's flushed to the
atomic.  Stat readers only check the atomic.  Thus readers such as
balance_dirty_pages() may see a nontrivial error margin: 32 pages per
cpu.

Assuming 100 cpus:
   4k x86 page_size:  13 MiB error per memcg
  64k ppc page_size: 200 MiB error per memcg

Considering that dirty+writeback are used together for some decisions the
errors double.

This inaccuracy can lead to undeserved oom kills.  One nasty case is
when all per-cpu counters hold positive values offsetting an atomic
negative value (i.e.  per_cpu[*]=32, atomic=n_cpu*-32).
balance_dirty_pages() only consults the atomic and does not consider
throttling the next n_cpu*32 dirty pages.  If the file_lru is in the
13..200 MiB range then there's absolutely no dirty throttling, which
burdens vmscan with only dirty+writeback pages thus resorting to oom
kill.

It could be argued that tiny containers are not supported, but it's more
subtle.  It's the amount the space available for file lru that matters.
If a container has memory.max-200MiB of non reclaimable memory, then it
will also suffer such oom kills on a 100 cpu machine.

The following test reliably ooms without this patch.  This patch avoids
oom kills.

  	free(buf);
  }

Make balance_dirty_pages() and wb_over_bg_thresh() work harder to
collect exact per memcg counters.  This avoids the aforementioned oom
kills.

This does not affect the overhead of memory.stat, which still reads the
single atomic counter.

Why not use percpu_counter? memcg already handles cpus going offline, so
no need for that overhead from percpu_counter.  And the percpu_counter
spinlocks are more heavyweight than is required.

It probably also makes sense to use exact dirty and writeback counters
in memcg oom reports.  But that is saved for later.

[ Upstream commit 4117992df66a26fa33908b4969e04801534baab1 ]

KASAN does not play well with the page poisoning (CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING).
It triggers false positives in the allocation path:

  BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in memchr_inv+0x2ea/0x330

because KASAN has not yet unpoisoned the shadow page for allocation
before it checks memchr_inv() but only found a stale poison pattern.

Also, false positives in free path,

  BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in kernel_poison_pages+0x29e/0x3d5

As it's difficult to report where exactly the uninit value resides in
the mempolicy object, we have to guess a bit.  mm/mempolicy.c:353
contains this part of mpol_rebind_policy():

        if (!mpol_store_user_nodemask(pol) &&
            nodes_equal(pol->w.cpuset_mems_allowed, *newmask))

"mpol_store_user_nodemask(pol)" is testing pol->flags, which I couldn't
ever see being uninitialized after leaving mpol_new().  So I'll guess
it's actually about accessing pol->w.cpuset_mems_allowed on line 354,
but still part of statement starting on line 353.

For w.cpuset_mems_allowed to be not initialized, and the nodes_equal()
reachable for a mempolicy where mpol_set_nodemask() is called in
do_mbind(), it seems the only possibility is a MPOL_PREFERRED policy
with empty set of nodes, i.e.  MPOL_LOCAL equivalent, with MPOL_F_LOCAL
flag.  Let's exclude such policies from the nodes_equal() check.  Note
the uninit access should be benign anyway, as rebinding this kind of
policy is always a no-op.  Therefore no actual need for stable
inclusion.
