2021-06-04kasan: use separate (un)poison implementation for integrated initPeter Collingbourne1-2/+4
Currently with integrated init page_alloc.c needs to know whether kasan_alloc_pages() will zero initialize memory, but this will start becoming more complicated once we start adding tag initialization support for user pages. To avoid page_alloc.c needing to know more details of what integrated init will do, move the unpoisoning logic for integrated init into the HW tags implementation. Currently the logic is identical but it will diverge in subsequent patches. For symmetry do the same for poisoning although this logic will be unaffected by subsequent patches.

2021-04-30kasan, mm: integrate page_alloc init with HW_TAGSAndrey Konovalov1-2/+2
This change uses the previously added memory initialization feature of HW_TAGS KASAN routines for page_alloc memory when init_on_alloc/free is enabled. With this change, kernel_init_free_pages() is no longer called when both HW_TAGS KASAN and init_on_alloc/free are enabled. Instead, memory is initialized in KASAN runtime. To avoid discrepancies with which memory gets initialized that can be caused by future changes, both KASAN and kernel_init_free_pages() hooks are put together and a warning comment is added. This patch changes the order in which memory initialization and page poisoning hooks are called. This doesn't lead to any side-effects, as whenever page poisoning is enabled, memory initialization gets disabled. Combining setting allocation tags with memory initialization improves HW_TAGS KASAN performance when init_on_alloc/free is enabled.

2021-02-24kasan: move _RET_IP_ to inline wrappersAndrey Konovalov1-1/+1
Generic mm functions that call KASAN annotations that might report a bug pass _RET_IP_ to them as an argument. This allows KASAN to include the name of the function that called the mm function in its report's header. Now that KASAN has inline wrappers for all of its annotations, move _RET_IP_ to those wrappers to simplify annotation call sites.

2018-02-06kasan: detect invalid frees for large mempool objectsDmitry Vyukov1-3/+3
Detect frees of pointers into middle of mempool objects. I did a one-off test, but it turned out to be very tricky, so I reverted it. First, mempool does not call kasan_poison_kfree() unless allocation function fails. I stubbed an allocation function to fail on second and subsequent allocations. But then mempool stopped to call kasan_poison_kfree() at all, because it does it only when allocation function is mempool_kmalloc(). We could support this special failing test allocation function in mempool, but it also can't live with kasan tests, because these are in a module.

2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman1-0/+1
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

Rename: wait_queue_t => wait_queue_entry_t 'wait_queue_t' was always a slight misnomer: its name implies that it's a "queue", but in reality it's a queue *entry*. The 'real' queue is the wait queue head, which had to carry the name. Start sorting this out by renaming it to 'wait_queue_entry_t'. This also allows the real structure name 'struct __wait_queue' to lose its double underscore and become 'struct wait_queue_entry', which is the more canonical nomenclature for such data types.

2016-07-28Revert "mm, mempool: only set __GFP_NOMEMALLOC if there are free elements"Michal Hocko1-15/+3
This reverts commit f9054c70d28b ("mm, mempool: only set __GFP_NOMEMALLOC if there are free elements"). There has been a report about OOM killer invoked when swapping out to a dm-crypt device. The primary reason seems to be that the swapout out IO managed to completely deplete memory reserves. Ondrej was able to bisect and explained the issue by pointing to f9054c70d28b ("mm, mempool: only set __GFP_NOMEMALLOC if there are free elements"). The reason is that the swapout path is not throttled properly because the md-raid layer needs to allocate from the generic_make_request path which means it allocates from the PF_MEMALLOC context. dm layer uses mempool_alloc in order to guarantee a forward progress which used to inhibit access to memory reserves when using page allocator. This has changed by f9054c70d28b ("mm, mempool: only set __GFP_NOMEMALLOC if there are free elements") which has dropped the __GFP_NOMEMALLOC protection when the memory pool is depleted. If we are running out of memory and the only way forward to free memory is to perform swapout we just keep consuming memory reserves rather than throttling the mempool allocations and allowing the pending IO to complete up to a moment when the memory is depleted completely and there is no way forward but invoking the OOM killer. This is less than optimal. The original intention of f9054c70d28b was to help with the OOM situations where the oom victim depends on mempool allocation to make a forward progress. David has mentioned the following backtrace: schedule schedule_timeout io_schedule_timeout mempool_alloc __split_and_process_bio dm_request generic_make_request submit_bio mpage_readpages ext4_readpages __do_page_cache_readahead ra_submit filemap_fault handle_mm_fault __do_page_fault do_page_fault page_fault We do not know more about why the mempool is depleted without being replenished in time, though. In any case the dm layer shouldn't depend on any allocations outside of the dedicated pools so a forward progress should be guaranteed. If this is not the case then the dm should be fixed rather than papering over the problem and postponing it to later by accessing more memory reserves. mempools are a mechanism to maintain dedicated memory reserves to guaratee forward progress. Allowing them an unbounded access to the page allocator memory reserves is going against the whole purpose of this mechanism. Bisected by Ondrej Kozina.

2016-06-24mm: mempool: kasan: don't poot mempool objects in quarantineAndrey Ryabinin1-8/+4
Currently we may put reserved by mempool elements into quarantine via kasan_kfree(). This is totally wrong since quarantine may really free these objects. So when mempool will try to use such element, use-after-free will happen. Or mempool may decide that it no longer need that element and double-free it. So don't put object into quarantine in kasan_kfree(), just poison it. Rename kasan_kfree() to kasan_poison_kfree() to respect that. Also, we shouldn't use kasan_slab_alloc()/kasan_krealloc() in kasan_unpoison_element() because those functions may update allocation stacktrace. This would be wrong for the most of the remove_element call sites. (The only call site where we may want to update alloc stacktrace is in mempool_alloc(). Kmemleak solves this by calling kmemleak_update_trace(), so we could make something like that too. But this is out of scope of this patch).

2016-05-20mm: kasan: initial memory quarantine implementationAlexander Potapenko1-1/+1
Quarantine isolates freed objects in a separate queue. The objects are returned to the allocator later, which helps to detect use-after-free errors. When the object is freed, its state changes from KASAN_STATE_ALLOC to KASAN_STATE_QUARANTINE. The object is poisoned and put into quarantine instead of being returned to the allocator, therefore every subsequent access to that object triggers a KASAN error, and the error handler is able to say where the object has been allocated and deallocated. When it's time for the object to leave quarantine, its state becomes KASAN_STATE_FREE and it's returned to the allocator. From now on the allocator may reuse it for another allocation. Before that happens, it's still possible to detect a use-after free on that object (it retains the allocation/deallocation stacks). When the allocator reuses this object, the shadow is unpoisoned and old allocation/deallocation stacks are wiped. Therefore a use of this object, even an incorrect one, won't trigger ASan warning. Without the quarantine, it's not guaranteed that the objects aren't reused immediately, that's why the probability of catching a use-after-free is lower than with quarantine in place. Quarantine isolates freed objects in a separate queue. The objects are returned to the allocator later, which helps to detect use-after-free errors. Freed objects are first added to per-cpu quarantine queues. When a cache is destroyed or memory shrinking is requested, the objects are moved into the global quarantine queue. Whenever a kmalloc call allows memory reclaiming, the oldest objects are popped out of the global queue until the total size of objects in quarantine is less than 3/4 of the maximum quarantine size (which is a fraction of installed physical memory). As long as an object remains in the quarantine, KASAN is able to report accesses to it, so the chance of reporting a use-after-free is increased. Once the object leaves quarantine, the allocator may reuse it, in which case the object is unpoisoned and KASAN can't detect incorrect accesses to it. Right now quarantine support is only enabled in SLAB allocator. Unification of KASAN features in SLAB and SLUB will be done later. This patch is based on the "mm: kasan: quarantine" patch originally prepared by Dmitry Chernenkov. A number of improvements have been suggested by Andrey Ryabinin.

Only set __GFP_NOMEMALLOC if there are elements on the freelist. If there are no free elements, allow allocations without the bit set so that memory reserves can be accessed if needed. Additionally, using mempool_alloc() with __GFP_NOMEMALLOC is not supported since the implementation can loop forever without accessing memory reserves when needed.

2015-11-06mm, page_alloc: distinguish between being unable to sleep, unwilling to ↵Mel Gorman1-5/+5
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.

2015-04-15mm, mempool: poison elements backed by slab allocatorDavid Rientjes1-2/+90
Mempools keep elements in a reserved pool for contexts in which allocation may not be possible. When an element is allocated from the reserved pool, its memory contents is the same as when it was added to the reserved pool. Because of this, elements lack any free poisoning to detect use-after-free errors. This patch adds free poisoning for elements backed by the slab allocator. This is possible because the mempool layer knows the object size of each element. When an element is added to the reserved pool, it is poisoned with POISON_FREE. When it is removed from the reserved pool, the contents are checked for POISON_FREE. If there is a mismatch, a warning is emitted to the kernel log. This is only effective for configs with CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB or CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON.

mempool modifies gfp_mask so that the backing allocator doesn't try too hard or trigger warning message when there's pool to fall back on. In addition, for the first try, it removes __GFP_WAIT and IO, so that it doesn't trigger reclaim or wait when allocation can be fulfilled from pool; however, when that allocation fails and pool is empty too, it waits for the pool to be replenished before retrying. Allocation which could have succeeded after a bit of reclaim has to wait on the reserved items and it's not like mempool doesn't retry with __GFP_WAIT and IO. It just does that *after* someone returns an element, pointlessly delaying things. Fix it by retrying immediately if the first round of allocation attempts w/o __GFP_WAIT and IO fails.

2012-01-10mempool: fix and document synchronization and memory barrier usageTejun Heo1-13/+48
mempool_alloc/free() use undocumented smp_mb()'s. The code is slightly broken and misleading. The lockless part is in mempool_free(). It wants to determine whether the item being freed needs to be returned to the pool or backing allocator without grabbing pool->lock. Two things need to be guaranteed for correct operation. 1. pool->curr_nr + #allocated should never dip below pool->min_nr. 2. Waiters shouldn't be left dangling. For #1, The only necessary condition is that curr_nr visible at free is from after the allocation of the element being freed (details in the comment). For most cases, this is true without any barrier but there can be fringe cases where the allocated pointer is passed to the freeing task without going through memory barriers. To cover this case, wmb is necessary before returning from allocation and rmb is necessary before reading curr_nr. IOW, ALLOCATING TASK FREEING TASK update pool state after alloc; wmb(); pass pointer to freeing task; read pointer; rmb(); read pool state to free; The current code doesn't have wmb after pool update during allocation and may theoretically, on machines where unlock doesn't behave as full wmb, lead to pool depletion and deadlock. smp_wmb() needs to be added after successful allocation from reserved elements and smp_mb() in mempool_free() can be replaced with smp_rmb(). For #2, the waiter needs to add itself to waitqueue and then check the wait condition and the waker needs to update the wait condition and then wake up. Because waitqueue operations always go through full spinlock synchronization, there is no need for extra memory barriers. Furthermore, mempool_alloc() is already holding pool->lock when it decides that it needs to wait. There is no reason to do unlock - add waitqueue - test condition again. It can simply add itself to waitqueue while holding pool->lock and then unlock and sleep. This patch adds smp_wmb() after successful allocation from reserved pool, replaces smp_mb() in mempool_free() with smp_rmb() and extend pool->lock over waitqueue addition. More importantly, it explains what memory barriers do and how the lockless testing is correct. -v2: Oleg pointed out that unlock doesn't imply wmb.

2007-02-11[PATCH] Numerous fixes to kernel-doc info in source files.Robert P. J. Day1-3/+3
A variety of (mostly) innocuous fixes to the embedded kernel-doc content in source files, including: * make multi-line initial descriptions single line * denote some function names, constants and structs as such * change erroneous opening '/*' to '/**' in a few places * reword some text for clarity Signed-off-by: Robert P.

2006-09-01[PATCH] dm: work around mempool_alloc, bio_alloc_bioset deadlocksPavel Mironchik1-2/+7
This patch works around a complex dm-related deadlock/livelock down in the mempool allocator. Alasdair said: Several dm targets suffer from this. Mempools are not yet used correctly everywhere in device-mapper: they can get shared when devices are stacked, and some targets share them across multiple instances. I made fixing this one of the prerequisites for this patch: md-dm-reduce-stack-usage-with-stacked-block-devices.patch which in some cases makes people more likely to hit the problem. There's been some progress on this recently with (unfinished) dm-crypt patches at: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/agk/patches/2.6/editing/ (dm-crypt-move-io-to-workqueue.patch plus dependencies) and: I've no problems with a temporary workaround like that, but Milan Broz (a new Redhat developer in the Czech Republic) has started reviewing all the mempool usage in device-mapper so I'm expecting we'll soon have a proper fix for this associated problems. [He's back from holiday at the start of next week.] For now, this sad-but-safe little patch will allow the machine to recover.

2006-03-26[PATCH] mempool: add kzalloc allocatorMatthew Dobson1-1/+8
Add another allocator to the common mempool code: a kzalloc/kfree allocator This will be used by the next patch in the series to replace a mempool-backed kzalloc allocator. It is also very likely that there will be more users in the future.
