2020-08-17arch/ia64: Restore arch-specific pgd_offset_k implementationJessica Clarke1-0/+9
IA-64 is special and treats pgd_offset_k() differently to pgd_offset(), using different formulae to calculate the indices into the kernel and user PGDs. The index into the user PGDs takes into account the region number, but the index into the kernel (init_mm) PGD always assumes a predefined kernel region number. Commit 974b9b2c68f3 ("mm: consolidate pte_index() and pte_offset_*() definitions") made IA-64 use a generic pgd_offset_k() which incorrectly used pgd_index() for kernel page tables. As a result, the index into the kernel PGD was going out of bounds and the kernel hung during early boot. Allow overrides of pgd_offset_k() and override it on IA-64 with the old implementation that will correctly index the kernel PGD.

2020-08-14all arch: remove system call sys_sysctlXiaoming Ni1-1/+1
Since commit 61a47c1ad3a4dc ("sysctl: Remove the sysctl system call"), sys_sysctl is actually unavailable: any input can only return an error. We have been warning about people using the sysctl system call for years and believe there are no more users. Even if there are users of this interface if they have not complained or fixed their code by now they probably are not going to, so there is no point in warning them any longer. So completely remove sys_sysctl on all architectures.

2020-08-12mm/ia64: use general page fault accountingPeter Xu1-5/+4
Use the general page fault accounting by passing regs into handle_mm_fault(). It naturally solve the issue of multiple page fault accounting when page fault retry happened. Add the missing PERF_COUNT_SW_PAGE_FAULTS perf events too. Note, the other two perf events (PERF_COUNT_SW_PAGE_FAULTS_[MAJ|MIN]) were done in handle_mm_fault().

2020-08-12mm: do page fault accounting in handle_mm_faultPeter Xu1-1/+1
Patch series "mm: Page fault accounting cleanups", v5. This is v5 of the pf accounting cleanup series. It originates from Gerald Schaefer's report on an issue a week ago regarding to incorrect page fault accountings for retried page fault after commit 4064b9827063 ("mm: allow VM_FAULT_RETRY for multiple times"): https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200610174811.44b94525@thinkpad/ What this series did: - Correct page fault accounting: we do accounting for a page fault (no matter whether it's from #PF handling, or gup, or anything else) only with the one that completed the fault. For example, page fault retries should not be counted in page fault counters. Same to the perf events. - Unify definition of PERF_COUNT_SW_PAGE_FAULTS: currently this perf event is used in an adhoc way across different archs. Case (1): for many archs it's done at the entry of a page fault handler, so that it will also cover e.g. errornous faults. Case (2): for some other archs, it is only accounted when the page fault is resolved successfully. Case (3): there're still quite some archs that have not enabled this perf event. Since this series will touch merely all the archs, we unify this perf event to always follow case (1), which is the one that makes most sense. And since we moved the accounting into handle_mm_fault, the other two MAJ/MIN perf events are well taken care of naturally. - Unify definition of "major faults": the definition of "major fault" is slightly changed when used in accounting (not VM_FAULT_MAJOR). More information in patch 1. - Always account the page fault onto the one that triggered the page fault. This does not matter much for #PF handlings, but mostly for gup. More information on this in patch 25. Patchset layout: Patch 1: Introduced the accounting in handle_mm_fault(), not enabled. Patch 2-23: Enable the new accounting for arch #PF handlers one by one. Patch 24: Enable the new accounting for the rest outliers (gup, iommu, etc.) Patch 25: Cleanup GUP task_struct pointer since it's not needed any more This patch (of 25): This is a preparation patch to move page fault accountings into the general code in handle_mm_fault(). This includes both the per task flt_maj/flt_min counters, and the major/minor page fault perf events. To do this, the pt_regs pointer is passed into handle_mm_fault(). PERF_COUNT_SW_PAGE_FAULTS should still be kept in per-arch page fault handlers. So far, all the pt_regs pointer that passed into handle_mm_fault() is NULL, which means this patch should have no intented functional change.

As the lock is not part of the seqcount, lockdep cannot validate that the lock is held. This new debug mechanism adds the concept of associated locks. sequence count has now lock type variants and corresponding initializers which take a pointer to the associated lock used for writer serialization. If lockdep is enabled the pointer is stored and write_seqcount_begin() has a lockdep assertion to validate that the lock is held. Aside of the type and the initializer no other code changes are required at the seqcount usage sites. The rest of the seqcount API is unchanged and determines the type at compile time with the help of _Generic which is possible now that the minimal GCC version has been moved up. Adding this lockdep coverage unearthed a handful of seqcount bugs which have been addressed already independent of this. While generally useful this comes with a Trojan Horse twist: On RT kernels the write side critical section can become preemtible if the writers are serialized by an associated lock, which leads to the well known reader preempts writer livelock. RT prevents this by storing the associated lock pointer independent of lockdep in the seqcount and changing the reader side to block on the lock when a reader detects that a writer is in the write side critical section. - Conversion of seqcount usage sites to associated types and initializers" * tag 'locking-urgent-2020-08-10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (25 commits) locking/seqlock, headers: Untangle the spaghetti monster locking, arch/ia64: Reduce <asm/smp.h> header dependencies by moving XTP bits into the new <asm/xtp.h> header x86/headers: Remove APIC headers from <asm/smp.h> seqcount: More consistent seqprop names seqcount: Compress SEQCNT_LOCKNAME_ZERO() seqlock: Fold seqcount_LOCKNAME_init() definition seqlock: Fold seqcount_LOCKNAME_t definition seqlock: s/__SEQ_LOCKDEP/__SEQ_LOCK/g hrtimer: Use sequence counter with associated raw spinlock kvm/eventfd: Use sequence counter with associated spinlock userfaultfd: Use sequence counter with associated spinlock NFSv4: Use sequence counter with associated spinlock iocost: Use sequence counter with associated spinlock raid5: Use sequence counter with associated spinlock vfs: Use sequence counter with associated spinlock timekeeping: Use sequence counter with associated raw spinlock xfrm: policy: Use sequence counters with associated lock netfilter: nft_set_rbtree: Use sequence counter with associated rwlock netfilter: conntrack: Use sequence counter with associated spinlock sched: tasks: Use sequence counter with associated spinlock ...

After removal of CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP we have two equivalent functions that call memory_present() for each region in memblock.memory: sparse_memory_present_with_active_regions() and membocks_present(). Moreover, all architectures have a call to either of these functions preceding the call to sparse_init() and in the most cases they are called one after the other. Mark the regions from memblock.memory as present during sparce_init() by making sparse_init() call memblocks_present(), make memblocks_present() and memory_present() functions static and remove redundant sparse_memory_present_with_active_regions() function. Also remove no longer required HAVE_MEMORY_PRESENT configuration option.

2020-08-07mm/sparsemem: enable vmem_altmap support in vmemmap_populate_basepages()Anshuman Khandual1-1/+1
Patch series "arm64: Enable vmemmap mapping from device memory", v4. This series enables vmemmap backing memory allocation from device memory ranges on arm64. But before that, it enables vmemmap_populate_basepages() and vmemmap_alloc_block_buf() to accommodate struct vmem_altmap based alocation requests. This patch (of 3): vmemmap_populate_basepages() is used across platforms to allocate backing memory for vmemmap mapping. This is used as a standard default choice or as a fallback when intended huge pages allocation fails. This just creates entire vmemmap mapping with base pages (PAGE_SIZE). On arm64 platforms, vmemmap_populate_basepages() is called instead of the platform specific vmemmap_populate() when ARM64_SWAPPER_USES_SECTION_MAPS is not enabled as in case for ARM64_16K_PAGES and ARM64_64K_PAGES configs. At present vmemmap_populate_basepages() does not support allocating from driver defined struct vmem_altmap while trying to create vmemmap mapping for a device memory range. It prevents ARM64_16K_PAGES and ARM64_64K_PAGES configs on arm64 from supporting device memory with vmemap_altmap request. This enables vmem_altmap support in vmemmap_populate_basepages() unlocking device memory allocation for vmemap mapping on arm64 platforms with 16K or 64K base page configs. Each architecture should evaluate and decide on subscribing device memory based base page allocation through vmemmap_populate_basepages(). Hence lets keep it disabled on all archs in order to preserve the existing semantics. A subsequent patch enables it on arm64.

For most architectures that support >2 levels of page tables, pmd_alloc_one() is a wrapper for __get_free_pages(), sometimes with __GFP_ZERO and sometimes followed by memset(0) instead. More elaborate versions on arm64 and x86 account memory for the user page tables and call to pgtable_pmd_page_ctor() as the part of PMD page initialization. Move the arm64 version to include/asm-generic/pgalloc.h and use the generic version on several architectures. The pgtable_pmd_page_ctor() is a NOP when ARCH_ENABLE_SPLIT_PMD_PTLOCK is not enabled, so there is no functional change for most architectures except of the addition of __GFP_ACCOUNT for allocation of user page tables. The pmd_free() is a wrapper for free_page() in all the cases, so no functional change here.

2020-08-07mm: remove unneeded includes of <asm/pgalloc.h>Mike Rapoport8-8/+0
Patch series "mm: cleanup usage of <asm/pgalloc.h>" Most architectures have very similar versions of pXd_alloc_one() and pXd_free_one() for intermediate levels of page table. These patches add generic versions of these functions in <asm-generic/pgalloc.h> and enable use of the generic functions where appropriate. In addition, functions declared and defined in <asm/pgalloc.h> headers are used mostly by core mm and early mm initialization in arch and there is no actual reason to have the <asm/pgalloc.h> included all over the place. The first patch in this series removes unneeded includes of <asm/pgalloc.h> In the end it didn't work out as neatly as I hoped and moving pXd_alloc_track() definitions to <asm-generic/pgalloc.h> would require unnecessary changes to arches that have custom page table allocations, so I've decided to move lib/ioremap.c to mm/ and make pgalloc-track.h local to mm/. This patch (of 8): In most cases <asm/pgalloc.h> header is required only for allocations of page table memory. Most of the .c files that include that header do not use symbols declared in <asm/pgalloc.h> and do not require that header. As for the other header files that used to include <asm/pgalloc.h>, it is possible to move that include into the .c file that actually uses symbols from <asm/pgalloc.h> and drop the include from the header file. The process was somewhat automated using sed -i -E '/[<"]asm\/pgalloc\.h/d' \ $(grep -L -w -f /tmp/xx \ $(git grep -E -l '[<"]asm/pgalloc\.h')) where /tmp/xx contains all the symbols defined in arch/*/include/asm/pgalloc.h.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux Pull close_range() implementation from Christian Brauner: "This adds the close_range() syscall. It allows to efficiently close a range of file descriptors up to all file descriptors of a calling task. This is coordinated with the FreeBSD folks which have copied our version of this syscall and in the meantime have already merged it in April 2019: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D21627 https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=359836 The syscall originally came up in a discussion around the new mount API and making new file descriptor types cloexec by default. During this discussion, Al suggested the close_range() syscall. First, it helps to close all file descriptors of an exec()ing task. This can be done safely via (quoting Al's example from [1] verbatim): /* that exec is sensitive */ unshare(CLONE_FILES); /* we don't want anything past stderr here */ close_range(3, ~0U); execve(....); The code snippet above is one way of working around the problem that file descriptors are not cloexec by default. This is aggravated by the fact that we can't just switch them over without massively regressing userspace. For a whole class of programs having an in-kernel method of closing all file descriptors is very helpful (e.g. demons, service managers, programming language standard libraries, container managers etc.). Second, it allows userspace to avoid implementing closing all file descriptors by parsing through /proc/<pid>/fd/* and calling close() on each file descriptor and other hacks. From looking at various large(ish) userspace code bases this or similar patterns are very common in service managers, container runtimes, and programming language runtimes/standard libraries such as Python or Rust. In addition, the syscall will also work for tasks that do not have procfs mounted and on kernels that do not have procfs support compiled in. In such situations the only way to make sure that all file descriptors are closed is to call close() on each file descriptor up to UINT_MAX or RLIMIT_NOFILE, OPEN_MAX trickery. Based on Linus' suggestion close_range() also comes with a new flag CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE to more elegantly handle file descriptor dropping right before exec. This would usually be expressed in the sequence: unshare(CLONE_FILES); close_range(3, ~0U); as pointed out by Linus it might be desirable to have this be a part of close_range() itself under a new flag CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE which gets especially handy when we're closing all file descriptors above a certain threshold.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux Pull fork cleanups from Christian Brauner: "This is cleanup series from when we reworked a chunk of the process creation paths in the kernel and switched to struct {kernel_}clone_args. High-level this does two main things: - Remove the double export of both do_fork() and _do_fork() where do_fork() used the incosistent legacy clone calling convention. Now we only export _do_fork() which is based on struct kernel_clone_args. - Remove the copy_thread_tls()/copy_thread() split making the architecture specific HAVE_COYP_THREAD_TLS config option obsolete. This switches all remaining architectures to select HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS and thus to the copy_thread_tls() calling convention. The current split makes the process creation codepaths more convoluted than they need to be. Each architecture has their own copy_thread() function unless it selects HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS then it has a copy_thread_tls() function. The split is not needed anymore nowadays, all architectures support CLONE_SETTLS but quite a few of them never bothered to select HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS and instead simply continued to use copy_thread() and use the old calling convention. Removing this split cleans up the process creation codepaths and paves the way for implementing clone3() on such architectures since it requires the copy_thread_tls() calling convention. After having made each architectures support copy_thread_tls() this series simply renames that function back to copy_thread(). It also switches all architectures that call do_fork() directly over to _do_fork() and the struct kernel_clone_args calling convention. This is a corollary of switching the architectures that did not yet support it over to copy_thread_tls() since do_fork() is conditional on not supporting copy_thread_tls() (Mostly because it lacks a separate argument for tls which is trivial to fix but there's no need for this function to exist.). The do_fork() removal is in itself already useful as it allows to to remove the export of both do_fork() and _do_fork() we currently have in favor of only _do_fork(). This has already been discussed back when we added clone3(). The legacy clone() calling convention is - as is probably well-known - somewhat odd: # # ABI hall of shame # config CLONE_BACKWARDS config CLONE_BACKWARDS2 config CLONE_BACKWARDS3 that is aggravated by the fact that some architectures such as sparc follow the CLONE_BACKWARDSx calling convention but don't really select the corresponding config option since they call do_fork() directly. So do_fork() enforces a somewhat arbitrary calling convention in the first place that doesn't really help the individual architectures that deviate from it. They can thus simply be switched to _do_fork() enforcing a single calling convention. (I really hope that any new architectures will __not__ try to implement their own calling conventions...) Most architectures already have made a similar switch (m68k comes to mind). Overall this removes more code than it adds even with a good portion of added comments. It simplifies a chunk of arch specific assembly either by moving the code into C or by simply rewriting the assembly. Architectures that have been touched in non-trivial ways have all been actually boot and stress tested: sparc and ia64 have been tested with Debian 9 images. They are the two architectures which have been touched the most. All non-trivial changes to architectures have seen acks from the relevant maintainers. nios2 with a custom built buildroot image. h8300 I couldn't get something bootable to test on but the changes have been fairly automatic and I'm sure we'll hear people yell if I broke something there.

Now that HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS has been removed, rename copy_thread_tls() back simply copy_thread(). It's a simpler name, and doesn't imply that only tls is copied here. This finishes an outstanding chunk of internal process creation work since we've added clone3().

2020-07-04arch: remove HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLSChristian Brauner1-1/+0
All architectures support copy_thread_tls() now, so remove the legacy copy_thread() function and the HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS config option. Everyone uses the same process creation calling convention based on copy_thread_tls() and struct kernel_clone_args. This will make it easier to maintain the core process creation code under kernel/, simplifies the callpaths and makes the identical for all architectures.

2020-06-26[ia64] sanitize elf_access_gpreg()Al Viro1-34/+23
The function takes the register number, finds the corresponding field of pt_regs for registers that are saved there or does the unwind for the registers that end up spilled on the kernel stack. Then it reads from or writes to the resulting location. Unfortunately, finding the required pt_regs field is done by rather horrible switch. It's microoptimized in all the wrong places - it even uses the knowledge that fields for r8..r11 follow each other in pt_regs layout, while r12..r13 are not adjacent to those, etc. All of that is to encode the mapping from register numbers to offsets + the information that r4..r7 are not to be found in pt_regs. It's deeply in nasal demon territory, at that - the games it plays with pointer arithmetics on addresses of structure members are undefined behaviour. Valid C ends up with better code in this case: just initialize a constant array with offsets of relevant pt_regs fields and we don't need that switch anymore.

2020-06-23ia64: enable HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS, switch to kernel_clone_argsChristian Brauner3-26/+39
This is part of a larger series that aims at getting rid of the copy_thread()/copy_thread_tls() split that makes the process creation codepaths in the kernel more convoluted and error-prone than they need to be. I'm converting all the remaining arches that haven't yet switched and am collecting individual acks. Once I have them, I'll send the whole series removing the copy_thread()/copy_thread_tls() split, the HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS define and the legacy do_fork() helper. The only kernel-wide process creation entry point for anything not going directly through the syscall path will then be based on struct kernel_clone_args. No more danger of weird process creation abi quirks between architectures hopefully, and easier to maintain overall. It also unblocks implementing clone3() on architectures not support copy_thread_tls(). Any architecture that wants to implement clone3() will need to select HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS and thus need to implement copy_thread_tls(). So both goals are connected but independently beneficial. HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS means that a given architecture supports CLONE_SETTLS and not setting it should usually mean that the architectures doesn't implement it but that's not how things are. In fact all architectures support CLONE_TLS it's just that they don't follow the calling convention that HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS implies. That means all architectures can be switched over to select HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS. Once that is done we can remove that macro (yay, less code), the unnecessary do_fork() export in kernel/fork.c, and also rename copy_thread_tls() back to copy_thread(). At this point copy_thread() becomes the main architecture specific part of process creation but it will be the same layout and calling convention for all architectures. (Once that is done we can probably cleanup each copy_thread() function even more but that's for the future.) Since ia64 does support CLONE_SETTLS there's no reason to not select HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS. This brings us one step closer to getting rid of the copy_thread()/copy_thread_tls() split we still have and ultimately the HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS define in general. A lot of architectures have already converted and ia64 is one of the few hat haven't yet. This also unblocks implementing the clone3() syscall on ia64. Once that is done we can get of another ARCH_WANTS_* macro. Once Any architecture that supports HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS cannot call the do_fork() helper anymore. This is fine and intended since it should be removed in favor of the new, cleaner _do_fork() calling convention based on struct kernel_clone_args. In fact, most architectures have already switched. With this patch, ia64 joins the other arches which can't use the fork(), vfork(), clone(), clone3() syscalls directly and who follow the new process creation calling convention that is based on struct kernel_clone_args which we introduced a while back. This means less custom assembly in the architectures entry path to set up the registers before calling into the process creation helper and it is easier to to support new features without having to adapt calling conventions. It also unifies all process creation paths between fork(), vfork(), clone(), and clone3(). (We can't fix the ABI nightmare that legacy clone() is but we can prevent stuff like this happening in the future.) Well, the first version I nothing to test this with. I don't know how to reasonably explain what happened but thanks to Adrian I'm now sitting at home next to a HP Integrity RX2600. I've done some testing and my initial version had a bug that became obvious when I took a closer look. The switch stack logic assumes that ar.pfs is stored in r16 and I changed that to r2.

The clone3() syscall passes the tls argument through struct clone_args instead of a register. This means, all architectures that do not implement copy_thread_tls() but still support CLONE_SETTLS via copy_thread() expecting the tls to be located in a register argument based on clone() are currently unfortunately broken. Their tls value will be garbage. The patch series fixes this on all architectures that currently define __ARCH_WANT_SYS_CLONE3. It also adds a compile-time check to ensure that any architecture that enables clone3() in the future is forced to also implement copy_thread_tls(). My ultimate goal is to get rid of the copy_thread()/copy_thread_tls() split and just have copy_thread_tls() at some point in the not too distant future (Maybe even renaming copy_thread_tls() back to simply copy_thread() once the old function is ripped from all arches). This is dependent now on all arches supporting clone3(). While all relevant arches do that now there are still four missing: ia64, m68k, sh and sparc. They have the system call reserved, but not implemented. Once they all implement clone3() we can get rid of ARCH_WANT_SYS_CLONE3 and HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS. Note that in the meantime, m68k has already switched to the new calling convention. And I've got sparc patches acked by Dave, too.

2020-06-18maccess: make get_kernel_nofault() check for minimal type compatibilityLinus Torvalds1-1/+1
Now that we've renamed probe_kernel_address() to get_kernel_nofault() and made it look and behave more in line with get_user(), some of the subtle type behavior differences end up being more obvious and possibly dangerous. When you do get_user(val, user_ptr); the type of the access comes from the "user_ptr" part, and the above basically acts as val = *user_ptr; by design (except, of course, for the fact that the actual dereference is done with a user access). Note how in the above case, the type of the end result comes from the pointer argument, and then the value is cast to the type of 'val' as part of the assignment. So the type of the pointer is ultimately the more important type both for the access itself. But 'get_kernel_nofault()' may now _look_ similar, but it behaves very differently. When you do get_kernel_nofault(val, kernel_ptr); it behaves like val = *(typeof(val) *)kernel_ptr; except, of course, for the fact that the actual dereference is done with exception handling so that a faulting access is suppressed and returned as the error code. But note how different the casting behavior of the two superficially similar accesses are: one does the actual access in the size of the type the pointer points to, while the other does the access in the size of the target, and ignores the pointer type entirely. Actually changing get_kernel_nofault() to act like get_user() is almost certainly the right thing to do eventually, but in the meantime this patch adds logit to at least verify that the pointer type is compatible with the type of the result. In many cases, this involves just casting the pointer to 'void *' to make it obvious that the type of the pointer is not the important part. It's not how 'get_user()' acts, but at least the behavioral difference is now obvious and explicit. Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
