2020-02-18pipe: make sure to wake up everybody when the last reader/writer closesLinus Torvalds1-8/+10
Andrei Vagin reported that commit 0ddad21d3e99 ("pipe: use exclusive waits when reading or writing") broke one of the CRIU tests. He even has a trivial reproducer: #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/wait.h> int main() { int p[2]; pid_t p1, p2; int status; if (pipe(p) == -1) return 1; p1 = fork(); if (p1 == 0) { close(p[1]); read(p[0], &status, sizeof(status)); return 0; } p2 = fork(); if (p2 == 0) { close(p[1]); read(p[0], &status, sizeof(status)); return 0; } sleep(1); close(p[1]); wait(&status); wait(&status); return 0; } and the problem - once he points it out - is obvious. We use these nice exclusive waits, but when the last writer goes away, it then needs to wake up _every_ reader (and conversely, the last reader disappearing needs to wake every writer, of course). In fact, when going through this, we had several small oddities around how to wake things. We did in fact wake every reader when we changed the size of the pipe buffers. But that's entirely pointless, since that just acts as a possible source of new space - no new data to read. And when we change the size of the buffer, we don't need to wake all writers even when we add space - that case acts just as if somebody made space by reading, and any writer that finds itself not filling it up entirely will wake the next one. On the other hand, on the exit path, we tried to limit the wakeups with the proper poll keys etc, which is entirely pointless, because at that point we obviously need to wake up everybody. So don't do that: just wake up everybody - but only do that if the counts changed to zero. So fix those non-IO wakeups to be more proper: space change doesn't add any new data, but it might make room for writers, so it wakes up a writer. And the actual changes to reader/writer counts should wake up everybody, since everybody is affected (ie readers will all see EOF if the writers have gone away, and writers will all get EPIPE if all readers have gone away).

2020-02-08pipe: use exclusive waits when reading or writingLinus Torvalds1-23/+44
This makes the pipe code use separate wait-queues and exclusive waiting for readers and writers, avoiding a nasty thundering herd problem when there are lots of readers waiting for data on a pipe (or, less commonly, lots of writers waiting for a pipe to have space). While this isn't a common occurrence in the traditional "use a pipe as a data transport" case, where you typically only have a single reader and a single writer process, there is one common special case: using a pipe as a source of "locking tokens" rather than for data communication. In particular, the GNU make jobserver code ends up using a pipe as a way to limit parallelism, where each job consumes a token by reading a byte from the jobserver pipe, and releases the token by writing a byte back to the pipe. This pattern is fairly traditional on Unix, and works very well, but will waste a lot of time waking up a lot of processes when only a single reader needs to be woken up when a writer releases a new token. A simplified test-case of just this pipe interaction is to create 64 processes, and then pass a single token around between them (this test-case also intentionally passes another token that gets ignored to test the "wake up next" logic too, in case anybody wonders about it): #include <unistd.h> int main(int argc, char **argv) { int fd[2], counters[2]; pipe(fd); counters[0] = 0; counters[1] = -1; write(fd[1], counters, sizeof(counters)); /* 64 processes */ fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); do { int i; read(fd[0], &i, sizeof(i)); if (i < 0) continue; counters[0] = i+1; write(fd[1], counters, (1+(i & 1)) *sizeof(int)); } while (counters[0] < 1000000); return 0; } and in a perfect world, passing that token around should only cause one context switch per transfer, when the writer of a token causes a directed wakeup of just a single reader. But with the "writer wakes all readers" model we traditionally had, on my test box the above case causes more than an order of magnitude more scheduling: instead of the expected ~1M context switches, "perf stat" shows 231,852.37 msec task-clock # 15.857 CPUs utilized 11,250,961 context-switches # 0.049 M/sec 616,304 cpu-migrations # 0.003 M/sec 1,648 page-faults # 0.007 K/sec 1,097,903,998,514 cycles # 4.735 GHz 120,781,778,352 instructions # 0.11 insn per cycle 27,997,056,043 branches # 120.754 M/sec 283,581,233 branch-misses # 1.01% of all branches 14.621273891 seconds time elapsed 0.018243000 seconds user 3.611468000 seconds sys before this commit.

Much better. [ Note! This kernel improvement seems to be very good at triggering a race condition in the make jobserver (in GNU make 4.2.1) for me. It's a long known bug that was fixed back in June 2017 by GNU make commit b552b0525198 ("[SV 51159] Use a non-blocking read with pselect to avoid hangs."). But there wasn't a new release of GNU make until 4.3 on Jan 19 2020, so a number of distributions may still have the buggy version. Some have backported the fix to their 4.2.1 release, though, and even without the fix it's quite timing-dependent whether the bug actually is hit. ] Josh Triplett says: "I've been hammering on your pipe fix patch (switching to exclusive wait queues) for a month or so, on several different systems, and I've run into no issues with it. The patch *substantially* improves parallel build times on large (~100 CPU) systems, both with parallel make and with other things that use make's pipe-based jobserver.

2019-12-22pipe: fix empty pipe check in pipe_write()Jan Stancek1-1/+1
LTP pipeio_1 test is hanging with v5.5-rc2-385-gb8e382a185eb, with read side observing empty pipe and sleeping and write side running out of space and then sleeping as well. In this scenario there are 5 writers and 1 reader. Problem is that after pipe_write() reacquires pipe lock, it re-checks for empty pipe with potentially stale 'head' and doesn't wake up read side anymore. pipe->tail can advance beyond 'head', because there are multiple writers. Use pipe->head for empty pipe check after reacquiring lock to observe current state. Testing: With patch, LTP pipeio_1 ran successfully in loop for 1 hour. Without patch it hanged within a minute.

2019-12-11pipe: simplify signal handling in pipe_read() and add commentsLinus Torvalds1-7/+29
There's no need to separately check for signals while inside the locked region, since we're going to do "wait_event_interruptible()" right afterwards anyway, and the error handling is much simpler there. The check for whether we had already read anything was also redundant, since we no longer do the odd merging of reads when there are pending writers. But perhaps more importantly, this adds commentary about why we still need to wake up possible writers even though we didn't read any data, and why we can skip all the finishing touches now if we get a signal (or had a signal pending) while waiting for more data.

2019-12-07pipe: don't use 'pipe_wait() for basic pipe IOLinus Torvalds1-3/+27
pipe_wait() may be simple, but since it relies on the pipe lock, it means that we have to do the wakeup while holding the lock. That's unfortunate, because the very first thing the waked entity will want to do is to get the pipe lock for itself. So get rid of the pipe_wait() usage by simply releasing the pipe lock, doing the wakeup (if required) and then using wait_event_interruptible() to wait on the right condition instead. wait_event_interruptible() handles races on its own by comparing the wakeup condition before and after adding itself to the wait queue, so you can use an optimistic unlocked condition for it.

2019-12-07pipe: remove 'waiting_writers' merging logicLinus Torvalds1-14/+5
This code is ancient, and goes back to when we only had a single page for the pipe buffers. The exact history is hidden in the mists of time (ie "before git", and in fact predates the BK repository too). At that long-ago point in time, it actually helped to try to merge big back-and-forth pipe reads and writes, and not limit pipe reads to the single pipe buffer in length just because that was all we had at a time. However, since then we've expanded the pipe buffers to multiple pages, and this logic really doesn't seem to make sense. And a lot of it is somewhat questionable (ie "hmm, the user asked for a non-blocking read, but we see that there's a writer pending, so let's wait anyway to get the extra data that the writer will have"). But more importantly, it makes the "go to sleep" logic much less obvious, and considering the wakeup issues we've had, I want to make for less of those kinds of things.

2019-12-07pipe: fix and clarify pipe read wakeup logicLinus Torvalds1-13/+18
This is the read side version of the previous commit: it simplifies the logic to only wake up waiting writers when necessary, and makes sure to use a synchronous wakeup. This time not so much for GNU make jobserver reasons (that pipe never fills up), but simply to get the writer going quickly again. A bit less verbose commentary this time, if only because I assume that the write side commentary isn't going to be ignored if you touch this code.

2019-12-07pipe: fix and clarify pipe write wakeup logicLinus Torvalds1-18/+41
The pipe rework ends up having been extra painful, partly becaused of actual bugs with ordering and caching of the pipe state, but also because of subtle performance issues. In particular, the pipe rework caused the kernel build to inexplicably slow down. The reason turns out to be that the GNU make jobserver (which limits the parallelism of the build) uses a pipe to implement a "token" system: a parallel submake will read a character from the pipe to get the job token before starting a new job, and will write a character back to the pipe when it is done. The overall job limit is thus easily controlled by just writing the appropriate number of initial token characters into the pipe. But to work well, that really means that the old behavior of write wakeups being synchronous (WF_SYNC) is very important - when the pipe writer wakes up a reader, we want the reader to actually get scheduled immediately. Otherwise you lose the parallelism of the build. The pipe rework lost that synchronous wakeup on write, and we had clearly all forgotten the reasons and rules for it. This rewrites the pipe write wakeup logic to do the required Wsync wakeups, but also clarifies the logic and avoids extraneous wakeups. It also ends up addign a number of comments about what oit does and why, so that we hopefully don't end up forgetting about this next time we change this code.

2019-12-07pipe: fix poll/select race introduced by the pipe reworkLinus Torvalds1-3/+15
The kernel wait queues have a basic rule to them: you add yourself to the wait-queue first, and then you check the things that you're going to wait on. That avoids the races with the event you're waiting for. The same goes for poll/select logic: the "poll_wait()" goes first, and then you check the things you're polling for. Of course, if you use locking, the ordering doesn't matter since the lock will serialize with anything that changes the state you're looking at. That's not the case here, though. So move the poll_wait() first in pipe_poll(), before you start looking at the pipe state.

Merge two fixes for the pipe rework from David Howells: "Here are a couple of patches to fix bugs syzbot found in the pipe changes: - An assertion check will sometimes trip when polling a pipe because the ring size and indices used are approximate and may be being changed simultaneously. An equivalent approximate calculation was done previously, but without the assertion check, so I've just dropped the check. To make it accurate, the pipe mutex would need to be taken or the spin lock could be used - but usage of the spinlock would need to be rolled out into splice, iov_iter and other places for that. - The index mask and the max_usage values cannot be cached across pipe_wait() as F_SETPIPE_SZ could have been called during the wait.

2019-12-05pipe: Fix missing mask update after pipe_wait()David Howells1-6/+6
Fix pipe_write() to not cache the ring index mask and max_usage as their values are invalidated by calling pipe_wait() because the latter function drops the pipe lock, thereby allowing F_SETPIPE_SZ change them. Without this, pipe_write() may subsequently miscalculate the array indices and pipe fullness, leading to an oops like the following: BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in pipe_write+0xc25/0xe10 fs/pipe.c:481 Write of size 8 at addr ffff8880771167a8 by task syz-executor.3/7987 ...

2019-12-05pipe: Remove assertion from pipe_poll()David Howells1-2/+1
An assertion check was added to pipe_poll() to make sure that the ring occupancy isn't seen to overflow the ring size. However, since no locks are held when the three values are read, it is possible for F_SETPIPE_SZ to intervene and muck up the calculation, thereby causing the oops. Fix this by simply removing the assertion and accepting that the calculation might be approximate. Note that the previous code also had a similar issue, though there was no assertion check, since the occupancy counter and the ring size were not read with a lock held, so it's possible that the poll check might have malfunctioned then too. Also wake up all the waiters so that they can reissue their checks if there was a competing read or write.

2019-11-25vfs: mark pipes and sockets as stream-like file descriptorsLinus Torvalds1-2/+4
In commit 3975b097e577 ("convert stream-like files -> stream_open, even if they use noop_llseek") Kirill used a coccinelle script to change "nonseekable_open()" to "stream_open()", which changed the trivial cases of stream-like file descriptors to the new model with FMODE_STREAM. However, the two big cases - sockets and pipes - don't actually have that trivial pattern at all, and were thus never converted to FMODE_STREAM even though it makes lots of sense to do so. That's particularly true when looking forward to the next change: getting rid of FMODE_ATOMIC_POS entirely, and just using FMODE_STREAM to decide whether f_pos updates are needed or not. And if they are, we'll always do them atomically. This came up because KCSAN (correctly) noted that the non-locked f_pos updates are data races: they are clearly benign for the case where we don't care, but it would be good to just not have that issue exist at all. Note that the reason we used FMODE_ATOMIC_POS originally is that only doing it for the minimal required case is "safer" in that it's possible that the f_pos locking can cause unnecessary serialization across the whole write() call. And in the worst case, that kind of serialization can cause deadlock issues: think writers that need readers to empty the state using the same file descriptor. [ Note that the locking is per-file descriptor - because it protects "f_pos", which is obviously per-file descriptor - so it only affects cases where you literally use the same file descriptor to both read and write. So a regular pipe that has separate reading and writing file descriptors doesn't really have this situation even though it's the obvious case of "reader empties what a bit writer concurrently fills" But we want to make pipes as being stream-line anyway, because we don't want the unnecessary overhead of locking, and because a named pipe can be (ab-)used by reading and writing to the same file descriptor. ] There are likely a lot of other cases that might want FMODE_STREAM, and looking for ".llseek = no_llseek" users and other cases that don't have an lseek file operation at all and making them use "stream_open()" might be a good idea. But pipes and sockets are likely to be the two main cases.

We also need to drop the lock as that would impact others looking at the pipe waitqueue, such as poll(), the consumer and a future kernel message writer.

2019-10-31pipe: Use head and tail pointers for the ring, not cursor and lengthDavid Howells1-73/+97
Convert pipes to use head and tail pointers for the buffer ring rather than pointer and length as the latter requires two atomic ops to update (or a combined op) whereas the former only requires one. (1) The head pointer is the point at which production occurs and points to the slot in which the next buffer will be placed. This is equivalent to pipe->curbuf + pipe->nrbufs. The head pointer belongs to the write-side. (2) The tail pointer is the point at which consumption occurs. It points to the next slot to be consumed. This is equivalent to pipe->curbuf. The tail pointer belongs to the read-side. (3) head and tail are allowed to run to UINT_MAX and wrap naturally. They are only masked off when the array is being accessed, e.g.: pipe->bufs[head & mask] This means that it is not necessary to have a dead slot in the ring as head == tail isn't ambiguous. (4) The ring is empty if "head == tail". A helper, pipe_empty(), is provided for this. (5) The occupancy of the ring is "head - tail". A helper, pipe_occupancy(), is provided for this. (6) The number of free slots in the ring is "pipe->ring_size - occupancy". A helper, pipe_space_for_user() is provided to indicate how many slots userspace may use. (7) The ring is full if "head - tail >= pipe->ring_size". A helper, pipe_full(), is provided for this. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

Merge page ref overflow branch. Jann Horn reported that he can overflow the page ref count with sufficient memory (and a filesystem that is intentionally extremely slow). Admittedly it's not exactly easy. To have more than four billion references to a page requires a minimum of 32GB of kernel memory just for the pointers to the pages, much less any metadata to keep track of those pointers. Jann needed a total of 140GB of memory and a specially crafted filesystem that leaves all reads pending (in order to not ever free the page references and just keep adding more). Still, we have a fairly straightforward way to limit the two obvious user-controllable sources of page references: direct-IO like page references gotten through get_user_pages(), and the splice pipe page duplication. So let's just do that. * branch page-refs: fs: prevent page refcount overflow in pipe_buf_get mm: prevent get_user_pages() from overflowing page refcount mm: add 'try_get_page()' helper function mm: make page ref count overflow check tighter and more explicit
2019-04-14fs: prevent page refcount overflow in pipe_buf_getMatthew Wilcox1-2/+2
Change pipe_buf_get() to return a bool indicating whether it succeeded in raising the refcount of the page (if the thing in the pipe is a page). This removes another mechanism for overflowing the page refcount. All callers converted to handle a failure.

2018-06-28Revert changes to convert to ->poll_mask() and aio IOCB_CMD_POLLLinus Torvalds1-13/+9
The poll() changes were not well thought out, and completely unexplained. They also caused a huge performance regression, because "->poll()" was no longer a trivial file operation that just called down to the underlying file operations, but instead did at least two indirect calls. Indirect calls are sadly slow now with the Spectre mitigation, but the performance problem could at least be largely mitigated by changing the "->get_poll_head()" operation to just have a per-file-descriptor pointer to the poll head instead. That gets rid of one of the new indirections. But that doesn't fix the new complexity that is completely unwarranted for the regular case. The (undocumented) reason for the poll() changes was some alleged AIO poll race fixing, but we don't make the common case slower and more complex for some uncommon special case, so this all really needs way more explanations and most likely a fundamental redesign.

NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same values as the POLL* constants do. But they keyword here is "almost". For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al.

2018-02-06pipe: read buffer limits atomicallyEric Biggers1-4/+9
The pipe buffer limits are accessed without any locking, and may be changed at any time by the sysctl handlers. In theory this could cause problems for expressions like the following: pipe_user_pages_hard && user_bufs > pipe_user_pages_hard ... since the assembly code might reference the 'pipe_user_pages_hard' memory location multiple times, and if the admin removes the limit by setting it to 0, there is a very brief window where processes could incorrectly observe the limit to be exceeded. Fix this by loading the limits with READ_ONCE() prior to use.

2018-02-06pipe: simplify round_pipe_size()Eric Biggers1-11/+3
round_pipe_size() calculates the number of pages the requested size corresponds to, then rounds the page count up to the next power of 2. However, it also rounds everything < PAGE_SIZE up to PAGE_SIZE. Therefore, there's no need to actually translate the size into a page count; we just need to round the size up to the next power of 2. We do need to verify the size isn't greater than (1 << 31), since on 32-bit systems roundup_pow_of_two() would be undefined in that case. But that can just be combined with the UINT_MAX check which we need anyway now. Finally, update pipe_set_size() to not redundantly check the return value of round_pipe_size() for the "invalid size" case twice.

2018-02-06pipe: reject F_SETPIPE_SZ with size over UINT_MAXEric Biggers1-1/+4
A pipe's size is represented as an 'unsigned int'. As expected, writing a value greater than UINT_MAX to /proc/sys/fs/pipe-max-size fails with EINVAL. However, the F_SETPIPE_SZ fcntl silently truncates such values to 32 bits, rather than failing with EINVAL as expected. (It *does* fail with EINVAL for values above (1 << 31) but <= UINT_MAX.) Fix this by moving the check against UINT_MAX into round_pipe_size() which is called in both cases.

2018-02-06pipe: actually allow root to exceed the pipe buffer limitsEric Biggers1-3/+8
pipe-user-pages-hard and pipe-user-pages-soft are only supposed to apply to unprivileged users, as documented in both Documentation/sysctl/fs.txt and the pipe(7) man page. However, the capabilities are actually only checked when increasing a pipe's size using F_SETPIPE_SZ, not when creating a new pipe. Therefore, if pipe-user-pages-hard has been set, the root user can run into it and be unable to create pipes. Similarly, if pipe-user-pages-soft has been set, the root user can run into it and have their pipes limited to 1 page each. Fix this by allowing the privileged override in both cases.

Just put proc_dopipe_max_size() in the ctl_table entry directly, and remove the unneeded EXPORT_SYMBOL() and the ENOSYS stub for it.

2018-02-06pipe, sysctl: drop 'min' parameter from pipe-max-size converterEric Biggers1-7/+3
Patch series "pipe: buffer limits fixes and cleanups", v2. This series simplifies the sysctl handler for pipe-max-size and fixes another set of bugs related to the pipe buffer limits: - The root user wasn't allowed to exceed the limits when creating new pipes. - There was an off-by-one error when checking the limits, so a limit of N was actually treated as N - 1. - F_SETPIPE_SZ accepted values over UINT_MAX. - Reading the pipe buffer limits could be racy. This patch (of 7): Before validating the given value against pipe_min_size, do_proc_dopipe_max_size_conv() calls round_pipe_size(), which rounds the value up to pipe_min_size. Therefore, the second check against pipe_min_size is redundant. Remove it.

pipe_max_size is assigned directly via procfs sysctl: static struct ctl_table fs_table[] = { ... { .procname = "pipe-max-size", .data = &pipe_max_size, .maxlen = sizeof(int), .mode = 0644, .proc_handler = &pipe_proc_fn, .extra1 = &pipe_min_size, }, ... int pipe_proc_fn(struct ctl_table *table, int write, void __user *buf, size_t *lenp, loff_t *ppos) { ... ret = proc_dointvec_minmax(table, write, buf, lenp, ppos) ... and then later rounded in-place a few statements later: ... pipe_max_size = round_pipe_size(pipe_max_size); ... This leaves a window of time between initial assignment and rounding that may be visible to other threads. (For example, one thread sets a non-rounded value to pipe_max_size while another reads its value.) Similar reads of pipe_max_size are potentially racy: pipe.c :: alloc_pipe_info() pipe.c :: pipe_set_size() Add a new proc_dopipe_max_size() that consolidates reading the new value from the user buffer, verifying bounds, and calling round_pipe_size() with a single assignment to pipe_max_size.

2017-11-17pipe: avoid round_pipe_size() nr_pages overflow on 32-bitJoe Lawrence1-2/+15
round_pipe_size() contains a right-bit-shift expression which may overflow, which would cause undefined results in a subsequent roundup_pow_of_two() call. static inline unsigned int round_pipe_size(unsigned int size) { unsigned long nr_pages; nr_pages = (size + PAGE_SIZE - 1) >> PAGE_SHIFT; return roundup_pow_of_two(nr_pages) << PAGE_SHIFT; } PAGE_SIZE is defined as (1UL << PAGE_SHIFT), so: - 4 bytes wide on 32-bit (0 to 0xffffffff) - 8 bytes wide on 64-bit (0 to 0xffffffffffffffff) That means that 32-bit round_pipe_size(), nr_pages may overflow to 0: size=0x00000000 nr_pages=0x0 size=0x00000001 nr_pages=0x1 size=0xfffff000 nr_pages=0xfffff size=0xfffff001 nr_pages=0x0 << ! size=0xffffffff nr_pages=0x0 << ! This is bad because roundup_pow_of_two(n) is undefined when n == 0! 64-bit is not a problem as the unsigned int size is 4 bytes wide (similar to 32-bit) and the larger, 8 byte wide unsigned long, is sufficient to handle the largest value of the bit shift expression: size=0xffffffff nr_pages=100000 Modify round_pipe_size() to return 0 if n == 0 and updates its callers to handle accordingly.
