lib/stackdepot: export save/fetch stack for drivers

2016-11-11T16:12:37+00:00

Some drivers would like to record stacktraces in order to aide leak
tracing.  As stackdepot already provides a facility for only storing the
unique traces, thereby reducing the memory required, export that
functionality for use by drivers.

The code was originally created for KASAN and moved under lib in commit
cd11016e5f521 ("mm, kasan: stackdepot implementation.  Enable stackdepot
for SLAB") so that it could be shared with mm/.  In turn, we want to
share it now with drivers.

lib/genalloc.c: start search from start of chunk

2016-10-28T01:43:43+00:00

gen_pool_alloc_algo() iterates over the chunks of a pool trying to find
a contiguous block of memory that satisfies the allocation request.

The shortcut

	if (size > atomic_read(&chunk->avail))
		continue;

makes the loop skip over chunks that do not have enough bytes left to
fulfill the request.  There are two situations, though, where an
allocation might still fail:

(1) The available memory is not contiguous, i.e.  the request cannot
    be fulfilled due to external fragmentation.

(2) A race condition.  Another thread runs the same code concurrently
    and is quicker to grab the available memory.

In those situations, the loop calls pool->algo() to search the entire
chunk, and pool->algo() returns some value that is >= end_bit to
indicate that the search failed.  This return value is then assigned to
start_bit.  The variables start_bit and end_bit describe the range that
should be searched, and this range should be reset for every chunk that
is searched.  Today, the code fails to reset start_bit to 0.  As a
result, prefixes of subsequent chunks are ignored.  Memory allocations
might fail even though there is plenty of room left in these prefixes of
those other chunks.

lib/stackdepot.c: bump stackdepot capacity from 16MB to 128MB

2016-10-28T01:43:43+00:00

KASAN uses stackdepot to memorize stacks for all kmalloc/kfree calls.
Current stackdepot capacity is 16MB (1024 top level entries x 4 pages on
second level).  Size of each stack is (num_frames + 3) * sizeof(long).
Which gives us ~84K stacks.  This capacity was chosen empirically and it
is enough to run kernel normally.

However, when lots of configs are enabled and a fuzzer tries to maximize
code coverage, it easily hits the limit within tens of minutes.  I've
tested for long a time with number of top level entries bumped 4x
(4096).  And I think I've seen overflow only once.  But I don't have all
configs enabled and code coverage has not reached maximum yet.  So bump
it 8x to 8192.

Since we have two-level table, memory cost of this is very moderate --
currently the top-level table is 8KB, with this patch it is 64KB, which
is negligible under KASAN.

Here is some approx math.

128MB allows us to memorize ~670K stacks (assuming stack is ~200b).
I've grepped kernel for kmalloc|kfree|kmem_cache_alloc|kmem_cache_free|
kzalloc|kstrdup|kstrndup|kmemdup and it gives ~60K matches.  Most of
alloc/free call sites are reachable with only one stack.  But some
utility functions can have large fanout.  Assuming average fanout is 5x,
total number of alloc/free stacks is ~300K.

latent_entropy: raise CONFIG_FRAME_WARN by default

2016-10-28T01:43:43+00:00

When building with the latent_entropy plugin, set the default
CONFIG_FRAME_WARN to 2048, since some __init functions have many basic
blocks that, when instrumented by the latent_entropy plugin, grow beyond
1024 byte stack size on 32-bit builds.

bpf, test: fix ld_abs + vlan push/pop stress test

2016-10-20T18:39:06+00:00

After commit 636c2628086e ("net: skbuff: Remove errornous length
validation in skb_vlan_pop()") mentioned test case stopped working,
throwing a -12 (ENOMEM) return code. The issue however is not due to
636c2628086e, but rather due to a buggy test case that got uncovered
from the change in behaviour in 636c2628086e.

The data_size of that test case for the skb was set to 1. In the
bpf_fill_ld_abs_vlan_push_pop() handler bpf insns are generated that
loop with: reading skb data, pushing 68 tags, reading skb data,
popping 68 tags, reading skb data, etc, in order to force a skb
expansion and thus trigger that JITs recache skb->data. Problem is
that initial data_size is too small.

While before 636c2628086e, the test silently bailed out due to the
skb->len < VLAN_ETH_HLEN check with returning 0, and now throwing an
error from failing skb_ensure_writable(). Set at least minimum of
ETH_HLEN as an initial length so that on first push of data, equivalent
pop will succeed.

 "This adds a new gcc plugin named "latent_entropy". It is designed to
  extract as much possible uncertainty from a running system at boot
  time as possible, hoping to capitalize on any possible variation in
  CPU operation (due to runtime data differences, hardware differences,
  SMP ordering, thermal timing variation, cache behavior, etc).

  At the very least, this plugin is a much more comprehensive example
  for how to manipulate kernel code using the gcc plugin internals"

iov_iter: kernel-doc import_iovec() and rw_copy_check_uvector()

2016-10-15T00:00:34+00:00

Both import_iovec() and rw_copy_check_uvector() take an array
(typically small and on-stack) which is used to hold an iovec array copy
from userspace. This is to avoid an expensive memory allocation in the
fast path (i.e. few iovec elements).

The caller may have to check whether these functions actually used
the provided buffer or allocated a new one -- but this differs between
the too. Let's just add a kernel doc to clarify what the semantics are
for each function.
