2019-07-12mm: security: introduce init_on_alloc=1 and init_on_free=1 boot optionsAlexander Potapenko1-1/+3
Patch series "add init_on_alloc/init_on_free boot options", v10. Provide init_on_alloc and init_on_free boot options. These are aimed at preventing possible information leaks and making the control-flow bugs that depend on uninitialized values more deterministic. Enabling either of the options guarantees that the memory returned by the page allocator and SL[AU]B is initialized with zeroes. SLOB allocator isn't supported at the moment, as its emulation of kmem caches complicates handling of SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU caches correctly. Enabling init_on_free also guarantees that pages and heap objects are initialized right after they're freed, so it won't be possible to access stale data by using a dangling pointer. As suggested by Michal Hocko, right now we don't let the heap users to disable initialization for certain allocations. There's not enough evidence that doing so can speed up real-life cases, and introducing ways to opt-out may result in things going out of control. This patch (of 2): The new options are needed to prevent possible information leaks and make control-flow bugs that depend on uninitialized values more deterministic. This is expected to be on-by-default on Android and Chrome OS. And it gives the opportunity for anyone else to use it under distros too via the boot args. (The init_on_free feature is regularly requested by folks where memory forensics is included in their threat models.) init_on_alloc=1 makes the kernel initialize newly allocated pages and heap objects with zeroes. Initialization is done at allocation time at the places where checks for __GFP_ZERO are performed. init_on_free=1 makes the kernel initialize freed pages and heap objects with zeroes upon their deletion. This helps to ensure sensitive data doesn't leak via use-after-free accesses. Both init_on_alloc=1 and init_on_free=1 guarantee that the allocator returns zeroed memory. The two exceptions are slab caches with constructors and SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU flag. Those are never zero-initialized to preserve their semantics. Both init_on_alloc and init_on_free default to zero, but those defaults can be overridden with CONFIG_INIT_ON_ALLOC_DEFAULT_ON and CONFIG_INIT_ON_FREE_DEFAULT_ON. If either SLUB poisoning or page poisoning is enabled, those options take precedence over init_on_alloc and init_on_free: initialization is only applied to unpoisoned allocations. Slowdown for the new features compared to init_on_free=0, init_on_alloc=0: hackbench, init_on_free=1: +7.62% sys time (st.err 0.74%) hackbench, init_on_alloc=1: +7.75% sys time (st.err 2.14%) Linux build with -j12, init_on_free=1: +8.38% wall time (st.err 0.39%) Linux build with -j12, init_on_free=1: +24.42% sys time (st.err 0.52%) Linux build with -j12, init_on_alloc=1: -0.13% wall time (st.err 0.42%) Linux build with -j12, init_on_alloc=1: +0.57% sys time (st.err 0.40%) The slowdown for init_on_free=0, init_on_alloc=0 compared to the baseline is within the standard error. The new features are also going to pave the way for hardware memory tagging (e.g. arm64's MTE), which will require both on_alloc and on_free hooks to set the tags for heap objects. With MTE, tagging will have the same cost as memory initialization. Although init_on_free is rather costly, there are paranoid use-cases where in-memory data lifetime is desired to be minimized. There are various arguments for/against the realism of the associated threat models, but given that we'll need the infrastructure for MTE anyway, and there are people who want wipe-on-free behavior no matter what the performance cost, it seems reasonable to include it in this series.

2015-11-06mm, page_alloc: distinguish between being unable to sleep, unwilling to ↵Mel Gorman1-1/+1
sleep and avoiding waking kswapd __GFP_WAIT has been used to identify atomic context in callers that hold spinlocks or are in interrupts. They are expected to be high priority and have access one of two watermarks lower than "min" which can be referred to as the "atomic reserve". __GFP_HIGH users get access to the first lower watermark and can be called the "high priority reserve". Over time, callers had a requirement to not block when fallback options were available. Some have abused __GFP_WAIT leading to a situation where an optimisitic allocation with a fallback option can access atomic reserves. This patch uses __GFP_ATOMIC to identify callers that are truely atomic, cannot sleep and have no alternative. High priority users continue to use __GFP_HIGH. __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM identifies callers that can sleep and are willing to enter direct reclaim. __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM to identify callers that want to wake kswapd for background reclaim. __GFP_WAIT is redefined as a caller that is willing to enter direct reclaim and wake kswapd for background reclaim. This patch then converts a number of sites o __GFP_ATOMIC is used by callers that are high priority and have memory pools for those requests. GFP_ATOMIC uses this flag. o Callers that have a limited mempool to guarantee forward progress clear __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM but keep __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. bio allocations fall into this category where kswapd will still be woken but atomic reserves are not used as there is a one-entry mempool to guarantee progress. o Callers that are checking if they are non-blocking should use the helper gfpflags_allow_blocking() where possible. This is because checking for __GFP_WAIT as was done historically now can trigger false positives. Some exceptions like dm-crypt.c exist where the code intent is clearer if __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is used instead of the helper due to flag manipulations. o Callers that built their own GFP flags instead of starting with GFP_KERNEL and friends now also need to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. The first key hazard to watch out for is callers that removed __GFP_WAIT and was depending on access to atomic reserves for inconspicuous reasons. In some cases it may be appropriate for them to use __GFP_HIGH. The second key hazard is callers that assembled their own combination of GFP flags instead of starting with something like GFP_KERNEL. They may now wish to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. It's almost certainly harmless if it's missed in most cases as other activity will wake kswapd.

2015-09-08mm: add support for __GFP_ZERO flag to dma_pool_alloc()Sean O. Stalley1-2/+7
Currently a call to dma_pool_alloc() with a ___GFP_ZERO flag returns a non-zeroed memory region. This patchset adds support for the __GFP_ZERO flag to dma_pool_alloc(), adds 2 wrapper functions for allocing zeroed memory from a pool, and provides a coccinelle script for finding & replacing instances of dma_pool_alloc() followed by memset(0) with a single dma_pool_zalloc() call. There was some concern that this always calls memset() to zero, instead of passing __GFP_ZERO into the page allocator. [https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/7/15/881] I ran a test on my system to get an idea of how often dma_pool_alloc() calls into pool_alloc_page(). After Boot: [ 30.119863] alloc_calls:541, page_allocs:7 After an hour: [ 3600.951031] alloc_calls:9566, page_allocs:12 After copying 1GB file onto a USB drive: [ 4260.657148] alloc_calls:17225, page_allocs:12 It doesn't look like dma_pool_alloc() calls down to the page allocator very often (at least on my system). This patch (of 4): Currently the __GFP_ZERO flag is ignored by dma_pool_alloc(). Make dma_pool_alloc() zero the memory if this flag is set. Signed-off-by: Sean O.

2012-12-11mm: dmapool: use provided gfp flags for all dma_alloc_coherent() callsMarek Szyprowski1-24/+7
dmapool always calls dma_alloc_coherent() with GFP_ATOMIC flag, regardless the flags provided by the caller. This causes excessive pruning of emergency memory pools without any good reason. Additionaly, on ARM architecture any driver which is using dmapools will sooner or later trigger the following error: "ERROR: 256 KiB atomic DMA coherent pool is too small! Please increase it with coherent_pool= kernel parameter!". Increasing the coherent pool size usually doesn't help much and only delays such error, because all GFP_ATOMIC DMA allocations are always served from the special, very limited memory pool. This patch changes the dmapool code to correctly use gfp flags provided by the dmapool caller.

2008-04-28dmapool: enable debugging for CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON tooAndi Kleen1-4/+8
Previously it was only enabled for CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB. Not hooked into the slub runtime debug configuration, so you currently only get it with CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON, not plain CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG Acked-by: Matthew Wilcox <willy@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2007-12-04pool: Improve memory usage for devices which can't cross boundariesMatthew Wilcox1-16/+20
The previous implementation simply refused to allocate more than a boundary's worth of data from an entire page. Some users didn't know this, so specified things like SMP_CACHE_BYTES, not realising the horrible waste of memory that this was. It's fairly easy to correct this problem, just by ensuring we don't cross a boundary within a page. This even helps drivers like EHCI (which can't cross a 4k boundary) on machines with larger page sizes. Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox <willy@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: David S.

2007-12-04Change dmapool free block managementMatthew Wilcox1-61/+58
Use a list of free blocks within a page instead of using a bitmap. Update documentation to reflect this. As well as being a slight reduction in memory allocation, locked ops and lines of code, it speeds up a transaction processing benchmark by 0.4%. Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox <willy@linux.intel.com>
2007-12-04dmapool: Tidy up includes and add commentsMatthew Wilcox1-10/+30
We were missing a copyright statement and license, so add GPLv2, David Brownell's copyright and my copyright. The asm/io.h include was superfluous, but we were missing a few other necessary includes. Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox <willy@linux.intel.com>
2007-12-04dmapool: Validate parameters to dma_pool_createMatthew Wilcox1-7/+8
Check that 'align' is a power of two, like the API specifies. Align 'size' to 'align' correctly -- the current code has an off-by-one. The ALIGN macro in kernel.h doesn't. Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox <willy@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2007-12-04Avoid taking waitqueue lock in dmapoolMatthew Wilcox1-4/+5
With one trivial change (taking the lock slightly earlier on wakeup from schedule), all uses of the waitq are under the pool lock, so we can use the locked (or __) versions of the wait queue functions, and avoid the extra spinlock.
