2020-06-26doc: THP CoW fault no longer allocate THPYang Shi2-4/+3
Since commit 3917c80280c9 ("thp: change CoW semantics for anon-THP"), THP CoW page fault is rewritten. Now it just splits pmd then fallback to base page fault, it doesn't try to allocate THP anymore. So it is no longer counted in THP_FAULT_ALLOC. Remove the obsolete statement in documentation about THP CoW allocation to avoid confusion.

2020-06-08panic: add sysctl to dump all CPUs backtraces on oops eventGuilherme G. Piccoli1-0/+16
Usually when the kernel reaches an oops condition, it's a point of no return; in case not enough debug information is available in the kernel splat, one of the last resorts would be to collect a kernel crash dump and analyze it. The problem with this approach is that in order to collect the dump, a panic is required (to kexec-load the crash kernel). When in an environment of multiple virtual machines, users may prefer to try living with the oops, at least until being able to properly shutdown their VMs / finish their important tasks. This patch implements a way to collect a bit more debug details when an oops event is reached, by printing all the CPUs backtraces through the usage of NMIs (on architectures that support that). The sysctl added (and documented) here was called "oops_all_cpu_backtrace", and when set will (as the name suggests) dump all CPUs backtraces. Far from ideal, this may be the last option though for users that for some reason cannot panic on oops. Most of times oopses are clear enough to indicate the kernel portion that must be investigated, but in virtual environments it's possible to observe hypervisor/KVM issues that could lead to oopses shown in other guests CPUs (like virtual APIC crashes). This patch hence aims to help debug such complex issues without resorting to kdump. Signed-off-by: Guilherme G.

2020-06-08kernel/hung_task.c: introduce sysctl to print all traces when a hung task is ↵Guilherme G. Piccoli1-0/+14
detected Commit 401c636a0eeb ("kernel/hung_task.c: show all hung tasks before panic") introduced a change in that we started to show all CPUs backtraces when a hung task is detected _and_ the sysctl/kernel parameter "hung_task_panic" is set. The idea is good, because usually when observing deadlocks (that may lead to hung tasks), the culprit is another task holding a lock and not necessarily the task detected as hung. The problem with this approach is that dumping backtraces is a slightly expensive task, specially printing that on console (and specially in many CPU machines, as servers commonly found nowadays). So, users that plan to collect a kdump to investigate the hung tasks and narrow down the deadlock definitely don't need the CPUs backtrace on dmesg/console, which will delay the panic and pollute the log (crash tool would easily grab all CPUs traces with 'bt -a' command). Also, there's the reciprocal scenario: some users may be interested in seeing the CPUs backtraces but not have the system panic when a hung task is detected. The current approach hence is almost as embedding a policy in the kernel, by forcing the CPUs backtraces' dump (only) on hung_task_panic. This patch decouples the panic event on hung task from the CPUs backtraces dump, by creating (and documenting) a new sysctl called "hung_task_all_cpu_backtrace", analog to the approach taken on soft/hard lockups, that have both a panic and an "all_cpu_backtrace" sysctl to allow individual control. The new mechanism for dumping the CPUs backtraces on hung task detection respects "hung_task_warnings" by not dumping the traces in case there's no warnings left. Signed-off-by: Guilherme G.

2020-06-08kernel/watchdog.c: convert {soft/hard}lockup boot parameters to sysctl aliasesGuilherme G. Piccoli1-5/+5
After a recent change introduced by Vlastimil's series [0], kernel is able now to handle sysctl parameters on kernel command line; also, the series introduced a simple infrastructure to convert legacy boot parameters (that duplicate sysctls) into sysctl aliases. This patch converts the watchdog parameters softlockup_panic and {hard,soft}lockup_all_cpu_backtrace to use the new alias infrastructure. It fixes the documentation too, since the alias only accepts values 0 or 1, not the full range of integers. We also took the opportunity here to improve the documentation of the previously converted hung_task_panic (see the patch series [0]) and put the alias table in alphabetical order.

We can now handle sysctl parameters on kernel command line and have infrastructure to convert legacy command line options that duplicate sysctl to become a sysctl alias. This patch converts the hung_task_panic parameter. Note that the sysctl handler is more strict and allows only 0 and 1, while the legacy parameter allowed any non-zero value. But there is little reason anyone would not be using 1.

2020-06-08kernel/sysctl: support setting sysctl parameters from kernel command lineVlastimil Babka1-0/+9
Patch series "support setting sysctl parameters from kernel command line", v3. This series adds support for something that seems like many people always wanted but nobody added it yet, so here's the ability to set sysctl parameters via kernel command line options in the form of sysctl.vm.something=1 The important part is Patch 1. The second, not so important part is an attempt to clean up legacy one-off parameters that do the same thing as a sysctl. I don't want to remove them completely for compatibility reasons, but with generic sysctl support the idea is to remove the one-off param handlers and treat the parameters as aliases for the sysctl variants. I have identified several parameters that mention sysctl counterparts in Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt but there might be more. The conversion also has varying level of success: - numa_zonelist_order is converted in Patch 2 together with adding the necessary infrastructure. It's easy as it doesn't really do anything but warn on deprecated value these days. - hung_task_panic is converted in Patch 3, but there's a downside that now it only accepts 0 and 1, while previously it was any integer value - nmi_watchdog maps to two sysctls nmi_watchdog and hardlockup_panic, so there's no straighforward conversion possible - traceoff_on_warning is a flag without value and it would be required to handle that somehow in the conversion infractructure, which seems pointless for a single flag This patch (of 5): A recently proposed patch to add vm_swappiness command line parameter in addition to existing sysctl [1] made me wonder why we don't have a general support for passing sysctl parameters via command line. Googling found only somebody else wondering the same [2], but I haven't found any prior discussion with reasons why not to do this. Settings the vm_swappiness issue aside (the underlying issue might be solved in a different way), quick search of kernel-parameters.txt shows there are already some that exist as both sysctl and kernel parameter - hung_task_panic, nmi_watchdog, numa_zonelist_order, traceoff_on_warning. A general mechanism would remove the need to add more of those one-offs and might be handy in situations where configuration by e.g. /etc/sysctl.d/ is impractical. Hence, this patch adds a new parse_args() pass that looks for parameters prefixed by 'sysctl.' and tries to interpret them as writes to the corresponding sys/ files using an temporary in-kernel procfs mount. This mechanism was suggested by Eric W. Biederman [3], as it handles all dynamically registered sysctl tables, even though we don't handle modular sysctls. Errors due to e.g. invalid parameter name or value are reported in the kernel log. The processing is hooked right before the init process is loaded, as some handlers might be more complicated than simple setters and might need some subsystems to be initialized. At the moment the init process can be started and eventually execute a process writing to /proc/sys/ then it should be also fine to do that from the kernel. Sysctls registered later on module load time are not set by this mechanism - it's expected that in such scenarios, setting sysctl values from userspace is practical enough.

2020-06-08kernel: add panic_on_taintRafael Aquini3-0/+28
Analogously to the introduction of panic_on_warn, this patch introduces a kernel option named panic_on_taint in order to provide a simple and generic way to stop execution and catch a coredump when the kernel gets tainted by any given flag. This is useful for debugging sessions as it avoids having to rebuild the kernel to explicitly add calls to panic() into the code sites that introduce the taint flags of interest. For instance, if one is interested in proceeding with a post-mortem analysis at the point a given code path is hitting a bad page (i.e. unaccount_page_cache_page(), or slab_bug()), a coredump can be collected by rebooting the kernel with 'panic_on_taint=0x20' amended to the command line. Another, perhaps less frequent, use for this option would be as a means for assuring a security policy case where only a subset of taints, or no single taint (in paranoid mode), is allowed for the running system. The optional switch 'nousertaint' is handy in this particular scenario, as it will avoid userspace induced crashes by writes to sysctl interface /proc/sys/kernel/tainted causing false positive hits for such policies.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer: - The largest change for this cycle is the DM zoned target's metadata version 2 feature that adds support for pairing regular block devices with a zoned device to ease the performance impact associated with finite random zones of zoned device. The changes came in three batches: the first prepared for and then added the ability to pair a single regular block device, the second was a batch of fixes to improve zoned's reclaim heuristic, and the third removed the limitation of only adding a single additional regular block device to allow many devices. Testing has shown linear scaling as more devices are added. - Add new emulated block size (ebs) target that emulates a smaller logical_block_size than a block device supports The primary use-case is to emulate "512e" devices that have 512 byte logical_block_size and 4KB physical_block_size. This is useful to some legacy applications that otherwise wouldn't be able to be used on 4K devices because they depend on issuing IO in 512 byte granularity. - Add discard interfaces to DM bufio. First consumer of the interface is the dm-ebs target that makes heavy use of dm-bufio. - Fix DM crypt's block queue_limits stacking to not truncate logic_block_size. - Add Documentation for DM integrity's status line. - Switch DMDEBUG from a compile time config option to instead use dynamic debug via pr_debug. - Fix DM multipath target's hueristic for how it manages "queue_if_no_path" state internally. DM multipath now avoids disabling "queue_if_no_path" unless it is actually needed (e.g. in response to configure timeout or explicit "fail_if_no_path" message). This fixes reports of spurious -EIO being reported back to userspace application during fault tolerance testing with an NVMe backend. Added various dynamic DMDEBUG messages to assist with debugging queue_if_no_path in the future. - Add a new DM multipath "Historical Service Time" Path Selector. - Fix DM multipath's dm_blk_ioctl() to switch paths on IO error. - Improve DM writecache target performance by using explicit cache flushing for target's single-threaded usecase and a small cleanup to remove unnecessary test in persistent_memory_claim. - Other small cleanups in DM core, dm-persistent-data, and DM integrity. * tag 'for-5.8/dm-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm: (62 commits) dm crypt: avoid truncating the logical block size dm mpath: add DM device name to Failing/Reinstating path log messages dm mpath: enhance queue_if_no_path debugging dm mpath: restrict queue_if_no_path state machine dm mpath: simplify __must_push_back dm zoned: check superblock location dm zoned: prefer full zones for reclaim dm zoned: select reclaim zone based on device index dm zoned: allocate zone by device index dm zoned: support arbitrary number of devices dm zoned: move random and sequential zones into struct dmz_dev dm zoned: per-device reclaim dm zoned: add metadata pointer to struct dmz_dev dm zoned: add device pointer to struct dm_zone dm zoned: allocate temporary superblock for tertiary devices dm zoned: convert to xarray dm zoned: add a 'reserved' zone flag dm zoned: improve logging messages for reclaim dm zoned: avoid unnecessary device recalulation for secondary superblock dm zoned: add debugging message for reading superblocks ...

2020-06-03mm: allow swappiness that prefers reclaiming anon over the file workingsetJohannes Weiner1-5/+18
With the advent of fast random IO devices (SSDs, PMEM) and in-memory swap devices such as zswap, it's possible for swap to be much faster than filesystems, and for swapping to be preferable over thrashing filesystem caches. Allow setting swappiness - which defines the rough relative IO cost of cache misses between page cache and swap-backed pages - to reflect such situations by making the swap-preferred range configurable.

2020-06-03hugetlbfs: clean up command line processingMike Kravetz2-13/+62
With all hugetlb page processing done in a single file clean up code. - Make code match desired semantics - Update documentation with semantics - Make all warnings and errors messages start with 'HugeTLB:'. - Consistently name command line parsing routines. - Warn if !hugepages_supported() and command line parameters have been specified. - Add comments to code - Describe some of the subtle interactions - Describe semantics of command line arguments This patch also fixes issues with implicitly setting the number of gigantic huge pages to preallocate. Previously on X86 command line, hugepages=2 default_hugepagesz=1G would result in zero 1G pages being preallocated and, # grep HugePages_Total /proc/meminfo HugePages_Total: 0 # sysctl -a | grep nr_hugepages vm.nr_hugepages = 2 vm.nr_hugepages_mempolicy = 2 # cat /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages 2 After this patch 2 gigantic pages will be preallocated and all the proc, sysfs, sysctl and meminfo files will accurately reflect this. To address the issue with gigantic pages, a small change in behavior was made to command line processing. Previously the command line, hugepages=128 default_hugepagesz=2M hugepagesz=2M hugepages=256 would result in the allocation of 256 2M huge pages. The value 128 would be ignored without any warning. After this patch, 128 2M pages will be allocated and a warning message will be displayed indicating the value of 256 is ignored. This change in behavior is required because allocation of implicitly specified gigantic pages must be done when the default_hugepagesz= is encountered for gigantic pages. Previously the code waited until later in the boot process (hugetlb_init), to allocate pages of default size. However the bootmem allocator required for gigantic allocations is not available at this time.

2020-06-02mm/memcg: automatically penalize tasks with high swap useJakub Kicinski1-0/+20
Add a memory.swap.high knob, which can be used to protect the system from SWAP exhaustion. The mechanism used for penalizing is similar to memory.high penalty (sleep on return to user space). That is not to say that the knob itself is equivalent to memory.high. The objective is more to protect the system from potentially buggy tasks consuming a lot of swap and impacting other tasks, or even bringing the whole system to stand still with complete SWAP exhaustion. Hopefully without the need to find per-task hard limits. Slowing misbehaving tasks down gradually allows user space oom killers or other protection mechanisms to react. oomd and earlyoom already do killing based on swap exhaustion, and memory.swap.high protection will help implement such userspace oom policies more reliably. We can use one counter for number of pages allocated under pressure to save struct task space and avoid two separate hierarchy walks on the hot path. The exact overage is calculated on return to user space, anyway. Take the new high limit into account when determining if swap is "full". Borrowing the explanation from Johannes: The idea behind "swap full" is that as long as the workload has plenty of swap space available and it's not changing its memory contents, it makes sense to generously hold on to copies of data in the swap device, even after the swapin. A later reclaim cycle can drop the page without any IO. Trading disk space for IO. But the only two ways to reclaim a swap slot is when they're faulted in and the references go away, or by scanning the virtual address space like swapoff does - which is very expensive (one could argue it's too expensive even for swapoff, it's often more practical to just reboot). So at some point in the fill level, we have to start freeing up swap slots on fault/swapin. Otherwise we could eventually run out of swap slots while they're filled with copies of data that is also in RAM. We don't want to OOM a workload because its available swap space is filled with redundant cache.

2020-06-02mm, memcg: add workingset_restore in memory.statYafang Shao1-0/+4
There's a new workingset counter introduced in commit 1899ad18c607 ("mm: workingset: tell cache transitions from workingset thrashing"). With the help of this counter we can know the workingset is transitioning or thrashing. To leverage the benifit of this counter to memcg, we should introduce it into memory.stat. Then we could know the workingset of the workload inside a memcg better. Bellow is the verification of this new counter in memory.stat. Read a file into the memory and then read it again to make these pages be active. The size of this file is 1G. (memory.max is greater than file size) The counters in memory.stat will be inactive_file 0 active_file 1073639424 workingset_refault 0 workingset_activate 0 workingset_restore 0 workingset_nodereclaim 0 Trigger the memcg reclaim by setting a lower value to memory.high, and then some pages will be demoted into inactive list, and then some pages in the inactive list will be evicted into the storage. inactive_file 498094080 active_file 310063104 workingset_refault 0 workingset_activate 0 workingset_restore 0 workingset_nodereclaim 0 Then recover the memory.high and read the file into memory again. As a result of it, the transitioning will occur. Bellow is the result of this transitioning, inactive_file 498094080 active_file 575397888 workingset_refault 64746 workingset_activate 64746 workingset_restore 64746 workingset_nodereclaim 0 Signed-off-by: Yafang Shao <laoar.shao@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Acked-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Acked-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Acked-by: Chris Down <chris@chrisdown.name> Cc: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Suren Baghdasaryan <surenb@google.com> Cc: Shakeel Butt <shakeelb@google.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200504153522.11553-1-laoar.shao@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2020-06-02Documentation: kgdboc: Document new kgdboc_earlycon parameterDouglas Anderson1-0/+20
The recent patch ("kgdboc: Add kgdboc_earlycon to support early kgdb using boot consoles") adds a new kernel command line parameter. Document it. Note that the patch adding the feature does some comparing/contrasting of "kgdboc_earlycon" vs. the existing "ekgdboc". See that patch for more details, but briefly "ekgdboc" can be used _instead_ of "kgdboc" and just makes "kgdboc" do its normal initialization early (only works if your tty driver is already ready). The new "kgdboc_earlycon" works in combination with "kgdboc" and is backed by boot consoles.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon: "A sizeable pile of arm64 updates for 5.8. Summary below, but the big two features are support for Branch Target Identification and Clang's Shadow Call stack. The latter is currently arm64-only, but the high-level parts are all in core code so it could easily be adopted by other architectures pending toolchain support Branch Target Identification (BTI): - Support for ARMv8.5-BTI in both user- and kernel-space. This allows branch targets to limit the types of branch from which they can be called and additionally prevents branching to arbitrary code, although kernel support requires a very recent toolchain. - Function annotation via SYM_FUNC_START() so that assembly functions are wrapped with the relevant "landing pad" instructions. - BPF and vDSO updates to use the new instructions. - Addition of a new HWCAP and exposure of BTI capability to userspace via ID register emulation, along with ELF loader support for the BTI feature in .note.gnu.property. - Non-critical fixes to CFI unwind annotations in the sigreturn trampoline. Shadow Call Stack (SCS): - Support for Clang's Shadow Call Stack feature, which reserves platform register x18 to point at a separate stack for each task that holds only return addresses. This protects function return control flow from buffer overruns on the main stack. - Save/restore of x18 across problematic boundaries (user-mode, hypervisor, EFI, suspend, etc). - Core support for SCS, should other architectures want to use it too. - SCS overflow checking on context-switch as part of the existing stack limit check if CONFIG_SCHED_STACK_END_CHECK=y. CPU feature detection: - Removed numerous "SANITY CHECK" errors when running on a system with mismatched AArch32 support at EL1. This is primarily a concern for KVM, which disabled support for 32-bit guests on such a system. - Addition of new ID registers and fields as the architecture has been extended. Perf and PMU drivers: - Minor fixes and cleanups to system PMU drivers. Hardware errata: - Unify KVM workarounds for VHE and nVHE configurations. - Sort vendor errata entries in Kconfig. Secure Monitor Call Calling Convention (SMCCC): - Update to the latest specification from Arm (v1.2). - Allow PSCI code to query the SMCCC version. Software Delegated Exception Interface (SDEI): - Unexport a bunch of unused symbols. - Minor fixes to handling of firmware data. Pointer authentication: - Add support for dumping the kernel PAC mask in vmcoreinfo so that the stack can be unwound by tools such as kdump. - Simplification of key initialisation during CPU bringup. BPF backend: - Improve immediate generation for logical and add/sub instructions. vDSO: - Minor fixes to the linker flags for consistency with other architectures and support for LLVM's unwinder. - Clean up logic to initialise and map the vDSO into userspace. ACPI: - Work around for an ambiguity in the IORT specification relating to the "num_ids" field. - Support _DMA method for all named components rather than only PCIe root complexes. - Minor other IORT-related fixes.

2020-05-31mtd: Support kmsg dumper based on pstore/blkWeiXiong Liao1-2/+7
This introduces mtdpstore, which is similar to mtdoops but more powerful. It uses pstore/blk, and aims to store panic and oops logs to a flash partition, where pstore can later read back and present as files in the mounted pstore filesystem. To make mtdpstore work, the "blkdev" of pstore/blk should be set as MTD device name or MTD device number. For more details, see Documentation/admin-guide/pstore-blk.rst This solves a number of issues: - Work duplication: both of pstore and mtdoops do the same job storing panic/oops log. They have very similar logic, registering to kmsg dumper and storing logs to several chunks one by one. - Layer violations: drivers should provides methods instead of polices. MTD should provide read/write/erase operations, and allow a higher level drivers to provide the chunk management, kmsg dump configuration, etc. - Missing features: pstore provides many additional features, including presenting the logs as files, logging dump time and count, and supporting other frontends like pmsg, console, etc. Signed-off-by: WeiXiong Liao <liaoweixiong@allwinnertech.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200511233229.27745-11-keescook@chromium.org/ Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/1589266715-4168-1-git-send-email-liaoweixiong@allwinnertech.com Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>
2020-05-31pstore/blk: Support non-block storage devicesWeiXiong Liao1-4/+13
Add support for non-block devices (e.g. MTD). A non-block driver calls pstore_blk_register_device() to register iself. In addition, pstore/zone is updated to handle non-block devices, where an erase must be done before a write. Without this, there is no way to remove records stored to an MTD.
