OK we're doing the size computation before we enforce the limit on min_size. ---8<--- We need to do the initial hash table size computation after we have obtained the correct min_size/max_size parameters. Otherwise we may end up with a hash table whose size is outside the allowed envelope. Fixes: a998f712f77e ("rhashtable: Round up/down min/max_size to...")

2015-12-08rhashtable: Remove unnecessary wmb for future_tblHerbert Xu1-3/+0
The patch 9497df88ab5567daa001829051c5f87161a81ff0 ("rhashtable: Fix reader/rehash race") added a pair of barriers. In fact the wmb is superfluous because every subsequent write to the old or new hash table uses rcu_assign_pointer, which itself carriers a full barrier prior to the assignment. Therefore we may remove the explicit wmb. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Acked-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2015-12-08workqueue: implement lockup detectorTejun Heo1-0/+11
Workqueue stalls can happen from a variety of usage bugs such as missing WQ_MEM_RECLAIM flag or concurrency managed work item indefinitely staying RUNNING. These stalls can be extremely difficult to hunt down because the usual warning mechanisms can't detect workqueue stalls and the internal state is pretty opaque. To alleviate the situation, this patch implements workqueue lockup detector. It periodically monitors all worker_pools periodically and, if any pool failed to make forward progress longer than the threshold duration, triggers warning and dumps workqueue state as follows. BUG: workqueue lockup - pool cpus=0 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 stuck for 31s! Showing busy workqueues and worker pools: workqueue events: flags=0x0 pwq 0: cpus=0 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 active=17/256 pending: monkey_wrench_fn, e1000_watchdog, cache_reap, vmstat_shepherd, release_one_tty, release_one_tty, release_one_tty, release_one_tty, release_one_tty, release_one_tty, release_one_tty, release_one_tty, release_one_tty, release_one_tty, release_one_tty, release_one_tty, cgroup_release_agent workqueue events_power_efficient: flags=0x80 pwq 0: cpus=0 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 active=2/256 pending: check_lifetime, neigh_periodic_work workqueue cgroup_pidlist_destroy: flags=0x0 pwq 0: cpus=0 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 active=1/1 pending: cgroup_pidlist_destroy_work_fn ... The detection mechanism is controller through kernel parameter workqueue.watchdog_thresh and can be updated at runtime through the sysfs module parameter file. v2: Decoupled from softlockup control knobs.

2015-12-06x86/headers: Don't include asm/processor.h in asm/atomic.hAndi Kleen1-0/+4
asm/atomic.h doesn't really need asm/processor.h anymore. Everything it uses has moved to other header files. So remove that include. processor.h is a nasty header that includes lots of other headers and makes it prone to include loops. Removing the include here makes asm/atomic.h a "leaf" header that can be safely included in most other headers. The only fallout is in the lib/atomic tester which relied on this implicit include. Give it an explicit include.

2015-12-05Revert "rhashtable: Use __vmalloc with GFP_ATOMIC for table allocation"David S. Miller1-3/+2
This reverts commit d3716f18a7d841565c930efde30737a3557eee69. vmalloc cannot be used in BH disabled contexts, even with GFP_ATOMIC. And we certainly want to support rhashtable users inserting entries with software interrupts disabled. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2015-12-04rhashtable: Use __vmalloc with GFP_ATOMIC for table allocationHerbert Xu1-2/+3
When an rhashtable user pounds rhashtable hard with back-to-back insertions we may end up growing the table in GFP_ATOMIC context. Unfortunately when the table reaches a certain size this often fails because we don't have enough physically contiguous pages to hold the new table. Eric Dumazet suggested (and in fact wrote this patch) using __vmalloc instead which can be used in GFP_ATOMIC context.

2015-12-04rhashtable: Prevent spurious EBUSY errors on insertionHerbert Xu1-15/+30
Thomas and Phil observed that under stress rhashtable insertion sometimes failed with EBUSY, even though this error should only ever been seen when we're under attack and our hash chain length has grown to an unacceptable level, even after a rehash. It turns out that the logic for detecting whether there is an existing rehash is faulty. In particular, when two threads both try to grow the same table at the same time, one of them may see the newly grown table and thus erroneously conclude that it had been rehashed. This is what leads to the EBUSY error. This patch fixes this by remembering the current last table we used during insertion so that rhashtable_insert_rehash can detect when another thread has also done a resize/rehash. When this is detected we will give up our resize/rehash and simply retry the insertion with the new table.

This module allows to insert errors in some of netdevice's notifier events. All network drivers use these notifiers to signal various events and to check if they are allowed, e.g. PRECHANGEMTU and CHANGEMTU afterwards. Until recently I had to run failure tests by injecting a custom module, but now this infrastructure makes it trivial to test these failure paths. Some of the recent bugs I fixed were found using this module.

2015-11-23rhashtable-test: calculate max_entries value by defaultPhil Sutter1-3/+5

Since we know how many objects will be inserted, calculate the max size unless overridden by parameter. Note that specifying the exact number of objects upon table init won't suffice as that value is being rounded down to the next power of two - anticipate this by rounding up to the next power of two in beforehand.

2015-11-06lib/kobject.c: use kvasprintf_const for formatting ->nameRasmus Villemoes1-8/+22
Sometimes kobject_set_name_vargs is called with a format string conaining no %, or a format string of precisely "%s", where the single vararg happens to point to .rodata. kvasprintf_const detects these cases for us and returns a copy of that pointer instead of duplicating the string, thus saving some run-time memory. Otherwise, it falls back to kvasprintf. We just need to always deallocate ->name using kfree_const. Unfortunately, the dance we need to do to perform the '/' -> '!' sanitization makes the resulting code rather ugly. I instrumented kstrdup_const to provide some statistics on the memory saved, and for me this gave an additional ~14KB after boot (306KB was already saved; this patch bumped that to 320KB). I have KMALLOC_SHIFT_LOW==3, and since 80% of the kvasprintf_const hits were satisfied by an 8-byte allocation, the 14K would roughly be quadrupled when KMALLOC_SHIFT_LOW==5. Whether these numbers are sufficient to justify the ugliness I'll leave to others to decide.

2015-11-06lib/kasprintf.c: introduce kvasprintf_constRasmus Villemoes1-0/+16
This adds kvasprintf_const which tries to use kstrdup_const if possible: If the format string contains no % characters, or if the format string is exactly "%s", we delegate to kstrdup_const. Otherwise, we fall back to kvasprintf. Just as for kstrdup_const, the main motivation is to save memory by reusing .rodata when possible. The return value should be freed by kfree_const, just like for kstrdup_const. There is deliberately no kasprintf_const: In the vast majority of cases, the format string argument is a literal, so one can determine statically whether one could instead use kstrdup_const directly (which would also require one to change all corresponding kfree calls to kfree_const).

2015-11-06lib/llist.c: fix data race in llist_del_firstDmitry Vyukov1-2/+2
llist_del_first reads entry->next, but it did not acquire visibility over the entry node. As the result it can get a stale value of entry->next (e.g. NULL or whatever garbage was there before the appending thread wrote correct value). And then commit that value as llist head with cmpxchg. That will corrupt llist. Note there is a control-dependency between read of head->first and read of entry->next, but it does not make the code correct. Kernel memory model unambiguously says: "A load-load control dependency requires a full read memory barrier". Use smp_load_acquire to acquire visibility over the entry node. The data race was found with KernelThreadSanitizer (KTSAN). Here is an example of KTSAN report: ThreadSanitizer: data-race in llist_del_first Read of size 1 by thread T389 (K2630, CPU0): [<ffffffff8156b8a9>] llist_del_first+0x39/0x70 lib/llist.c:74 [< inlined >] tty_buffer_alloc drivers/tty/tty_buffer.c:181 [<ffffffff81664af4>] __tty_buffer_request_room+0xb4/0x250 drivers/tty/tty_buffer.c:292 [<ffffffff81664e6c>] tty_insert_flip_string_fixed_flag+0x6c/0x150 drivers/tty/tty_buffer.c:337 [< inlined >] tty_insert_flip_string include/linux/tty_flip.h:35 [<ffffffff81667422>] pty_write+0x72/0xc0 drivers/tty/pty.c:110 [< inlined >] process_output_block drivers/tty/n_tty.c:611 [<ffffffff8165c016>] n_tty_write+0x346/0x7f0 drivers/tty/n_tty.c:2401 [< inlined >] do_tty_write drivers/tty/tty_io.c:1159 [<ffffffff816568df>] tty_write+0x21f/0x3f0 drivers/tty/tty_io.c:1245 [<ffffffff8125f00f>] __vfs_write+0x5f/0x1f0 fs/read_write.c:489 [<ffffffff8125ff8f>] vfs_write+0xef/0x280 fs/read_write.c:538 [< inlined >] SYSC_write fs/read_write.c:585 [<ffffffff81261390>] SyS_write+0x70/0xe0 fs/read_write.c:577 [<ffffffff81ee862e>] entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x12/0x71 arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S:186 Previous write of size 8 by thread T226 (K761, CPU0): [<ffffffff8156b832>] llist_add_batch+0x32/0x70 lib/llist.c:44 (discriminator 16) [< inlined >] llist_add include/linux/llist.h:180 [<ffffffff816649fc>] tty_buffer_free+0x6c/0xb0 drivers/tty/tty_buffer.c:221 [<ffffffff816651e7>] flush_to_ldisc+0x107/0x300 drivers/tty/tty_buffer.c:514 [<ffffffff810b20ee>] process_one_work+0x47e/0x930 kernel/workqueue.c:2036 [<ffffffff810b2650>] worker_thread+0xb0/0x900 kernel/workqueue.c:2170 [<ffffffff810bbe20>] kthread+0x150/0x170 kernel/kthread.c:209 [<ffffffff81ee8a1f>] ret_from_fork+0x3f/0x70 arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S:526 Signed-off-by: Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@google.com> Reviewed-by: Paul E.

2015-11-06test_printf: test printf family at runtimeRasmus Villemoes3-0/+366
This adds a simple module for testing the kernel's printf facilities. Previously, some %p extensions have caused a wrong return value in case the entire output didn't fit and/or been unusable in kasprintf(). This should help catch such issues. Also, it should help ensure that changes to the formatting algorithms don't break anything. I'm not sure if we have a struct dentry or struct file lying around at boot time or if we can fake one, but most %p extensions should be testable, as should the ordinary number and string formatting. The nature of vararg functions means we can't use a more conventional table-driven approach. For now, this is mostly a skeleton; contributions are very welcome. Some tests are/will be slightly annoying to write, since the expected output depends on stuff like CONFIG_*, sizeof(long), runtime values etc. Signed-off-by: Rasmus Villemoes <linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk> Reviewed-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Cc: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com> Cc: Martin Kletzander <mkletzan@redhat.com> Cc: Rasmus Villemoes <linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2015-11-06lib/vsprintf.c: remove SPECIAL handling in pointer()Rasmus Villemoes1-1/+1
As a quick git grep -E '%[ +0#-]*#[ +0#-]*(\*|[0-9]+)?(\.(\*|[0-9]+)?)?p' shows, nobody uses the # flag with %p. Should one try to do so, one will be met with warning: `#' flag used with `%p' gnu_printf format [-Wformat] (POSIX and C99 both say "... For other conversion specifiers, the behavior is undefined.". Obviously, the kernel can choose to define the behaviour however it wants, but as long as gcc issues that warning, users are unlikely to show up.) Since default_width is effectively always 2*sizeof(void*), we can simplify the prologue of pointer() and save a few instructions.

Quoting from 2aa2f9e21e4e ("lib/vsprintf.c: improve sanity check in vsnprintf()"): On 64 bit, size may very well be huge even if bit 31 happens to be 0. Somehow it doesn't feel right that one can pass a 5 GiB buffer but not a 3 GiB one. So cap at INT_MAX as was probably the intention all along. This is also the made-up value passed by sprintf and vsprintf. I should have seen this copy-pasted instance back then, but let's just do it now.

2015-11-06lib/vsprintf.c: handle invalid format specifiers more robustlyRasmus Villemoes1-10/+21
If we meet any invalid or unsupported format specifier, 'handling' it by just printing it as a literal string is not safe: Presumably the format string and the arguments passed gcc's type checking, but that means something like sprintf(buf, "%n %pd", &intvar, dentry) would end up interpreting &intvar as a struct dentry*. When the offending specifier was %n it used to be at the end of the format string, but we can't rely on that always being the case. Also, gcc doesn't complain about some more or less exotic qualifiers (or 'length modifiers' in posix-speak) such as 'j' or 'q', but being unrecognized by the kernel's printf implementation, they'd be interpreted as unknown specifiers, and the rest of arguments would be interpreted wrongly. So let's complain about anything we don't understand, not just %n, and stop pretending that we'd be able to make sense of the rest of the format/arguments. If the offending specifier is in a printk() call we unfortunately only get a "BUG: recent printk recursion!", but at least direct users of the sprintf family will be caught.
