2016-07-26mm: introduce fault_envKirill A. Shutemov
The idea borrowed from Peter's patch from patchset on speculative page faults[1]: Instead of passing around the endless list of function arguments, replace the lot with a single structure so we can change context without endless function signature changes. The changes are mostly mechanical with exception of faultaround code: filemap_map_pages() got reworked a bit. This patch is preparation for the next one.

2016-05-27mm: remove more IS_ERR_VALUE abusesLinus Torvalds
The do_brk() and vm_brk() return value was "unsigned long" and returned the starting address on success, and an error value on failure. The reasons are entirely historical, and go back to it basically behaving like the mmap() interface does. However, nobody actually wanted that interface, and it causes totally pointless IS_ERR_VALUE() confusion. What every single caller actually wants is just the simpler integer return of zero for success and negative error number on failure. So just convert to that much clearer and more common calling convention, and get rid of all the IS_ERR_VALUE() uses wrt vm_brk(). Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2016-04-07mm/gup: Remove the macro overload API migration helpers from the get_user*() ↵Ingo Molnar
APIs The pkeys changes brought about a truly hideous set of macros in: cde70140fed8 ("mm/gup: Overload get_user_pages() functions") ... which macros are (ab-)using the fact that __VA_ARGS__ can be used to shift parameter positions in macro arguments without breaking the build and so can be used to call separate C functions depending on the number of arguments of the macro. This allowed easy migration of these 3 GUP APIs, as both these variants worked at the C level: old: ret = get_user_pages(current, current->mm, address, 1, 1, 0, &page, NULL); new: ret = get_user_pages(address, 1, 1, 0, &page, NULL); ... while we also generated a (functionally harmless but noticeable) build time warning if the old API was used. As there are over 300 uses of these APIs, this trick eased the migration of the API and avoided excessive migration pain in linux-next. Now, with its work done, get rid of all of that complication and ugliness: 3 files changed, 16 insertions(+), 140 deletions(-) ... where the linecount of the migration hack was further inflated by the fact that there are NOMMU variants of these GUP APIs as well. Much of the conversion was done in linux-next over the past couple of months, and Linus recently removed all remaining old API uses from the upstream tree in the following upstrea commit: cb107161df3c ("Convert straggling drivers to new six-argument get_user_pages()") There was one more old-API usage in mm/gup.c, in the CONFIG_HAVE_GENERIC_RCU_GUP code path that ARM, ARM64 and PowerPC uses. After this commit any old API usage will break the build.

2016-04-04mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macrosKirill A. Shutemov
PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE. This promise never materialized. And unlikely will. We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case, especially on the border between fs and mm. Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much breakage to be doable. Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are not. The changes are pretty straight-forward: - <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN}; - page_cache_get() -> get_page(); - page_cache_release() -> put_page(); This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files. I've called spatch for them manually. The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later. There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also will be addressed with the separate patch. virtual patch @@ expression E; @@ - E << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ expression E; @@ - E >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SIZE + PAGE_SIZE @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_MASK + PAGE_MASK @@ expression E; @@ - PAGE_CACHE_ALIGN(E) + PAGE_ALIGN(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_get(E) + get_page(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_release(E) + put_page(E) Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull x86 protection key support from Ingo Molnar: "This tree adds support for a new memory protection hardware feature that is available in upcoming Intel CPUs: 'protection keys' (pkeys). There's a background article at LWN.net: https://lwn.net/Articles/643797/ The gist is that protection keys allow the encoding of user-controllable permission masks in the pte. So instead of having a fixed protection mask in the pte (which needs a system call to change and works on a per page basis), the user can map a (handful of) protection mask variants and can change the masks runtime relatively cheaply, without having to change every single page in the affected virtual memory range. This allows the dynamic switching of the protection bits of large amounts of virtual memory, via user-space instructions. It also allows more precise control of MMU permission bits: for example the executable bit is separate from the read bit (see more about that below). This tree adds the MM infrastructure and low level x86 glue needed for that, plus it adds a high level API to make use of protection keys - if a user-space application calls: mmap(..., PROT_EXEC); or mprotect(ptr, sz, PROT_EXEC); (note PROT_EXEC-only, without PROT_READ/WRITE), the kernel will notice this special case, and will set a special protection key on this memory range. It also sets the appropriate bits in the Protection Keys User Rights (PKRU) register so that the memory becomes unreadable and unwritable. So using protection keys the kernel is able to implement 'true' PROT_EXEC on x86 CPUs: without protection keys PROT_EXEC implies PROT_READ as well. Unreadable executable mappings have security advantages: they cannot be read via information leaks to figure out ASLR details, nor can they be scanned for ROP gadgets - and they cannot be used by exploits for data purposes either. We know about no user-space code that relies on pure PROT_EXEC mappings today, but binary loaders could start making use of this new feature to map binaries and libraries in a more secure fashion. There is other pending pkeys work that offers more high level system call APIs to manage protection keys - but those are not part of this pull request. Right now there's a Kconfig that controls this feature (CONFIG_X86_INTEL_MEMORY_PROTECTION_KEYS) that is default enabled (like most x86 CPU feature enablement code that has no runtime overhead), but it's not user-configurable at the moment.

2016-02-16mm/gup: Overload get_user_pages() functionsDave Hansen
The concept here was a suggestion from Ingo. The implementation horrors are all mine. This allows get_user_pages(), get_user_pages_unlocked(), and get_user_pages_locked() to be called with or without the leading tsk/mm arguments. We will give a compile-time warning about the old style being __deprecated and we will also WARN_ON() if the non-remote version is used for a remote-style access. Doing this, folks will get nice warnings and will not break the build. This should be nice for -next and will hopefully let developers fix up their own code instead of maintainers needing to do it at merge time. The way we do this is hideous. It uses the __VA_ARGS__ macro functionality to call different functions based on the number of arguments passed to the macro. There's an additional hack to ensure that our EXPORT_SYMBOL() of the deprecated symbols doesn't trigger a warning. We should be able to remove this mess as soon as -rc1 hits in the release after this is merged.

2016-01-14kmemcg: account certain kmem allocations to memcgVladimir Davydov
Mark those kmem allocations that are known to be easily triggered from userspace as __GFP_ACCOUNT/SLAB_ACCOUNT, which makes them accounted to memcg. For the list, see below: - threadinfo - task_struct - task_delay_info - pid - cred - mm_struct - vm_area_struct and vm_region (nommu) - anon_vma and anon_vma_chain - signal_struct - sighand_struct - fs_struct - files_struct - fdtable and fdtable->full_fds_bits - dentry and external_name - inode for all filesystems. This is the most tedious part, because most filesystems overwrite the alloc_inode method. The list is far from complete, so feel free to add more objects. Nevertheless, it should be close to "account everything" approach and keep most workloads within bounds. Malevolent users will be able to breach the limit, but this was possible even with the former "account everything" approach (simply because it did not account everything in fact).

2015-07-10vfs: Commit to never having exectuables on proc and sysfs.Eric W. Biederman
Today proc and sysfs do not contain any executable files. Several applications today mount proc or sysfs without noexec and nosuid and then depend on there being no exectuables files on proc or sysfs. Having any executable files show on proc or sysfs would cause a user space visible regression, and most likely security problems. Therefore commit to never allowing executables on proc and sysfs by adding a new flag to mark them as filesystems without executables and enforce that flag. Test the flag where MNT_NOEXEC is tested today, so that the only user visible effect will be that exectuables will be treated as if the execute bit is cleared. The filesystems proc and sysfs do not currently incoporate any executable files so this does not result in any user visible effects. This makes it unnecessary to vet changes to proc and sysfs tightly for adding exectuable files or changes to chattr that would modify existing files, as no matter what the individual file say they will not be treated as exectuable files by the vfs. Not having to vet changes to closely is important as without this we are only one proc_create call (or another goof up in the implementation of notify_change) from having problematic executables on proc. Those mistakes are all too easy to make and would create a situation where there are security issues or the assumptions of some program having to be broken (and cause userspace regressions).

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulg/linux Pull module_init replacement part two from Paul Gortmaker: "Replace module_init with appropriate alternate initcall in non modules. This series converts non-modular code that is using the module_init() call to hook itself into the system to instead use one of our alternate priority initcalls. Unlike the previous series that used device_initcall and hence was a runtime no-op, these commits change to one of the alternate initcalls, because (a) we have them and (b) it seems like the right thing to do. For example, it would seem logical to use arch_initcall for arch specific setup code and fs_initcall for filesystem setup code. This does mean however, that changes in the init ordering will be taking place, and so there is a small risk that some kind of implicit init ordering issue may lie uncovered. But I think it is still better to give these ones sensible priorities than to just assign them all to device_initcall in order to exactly preserve the old ordering. Thad said, we have already made similar changes in core kernel code in commit c96d6660dc65 ("kernel: audit/fix non-modular users of module_init in core code") without any regressions reported, so this type of change isn't without precedent. It has also got the same local testing and linux-next coverage as all the other pull requests that I'm sending for this merge window have got.

2015-06-16mm: replace module_init usages with subsys_initcall in nommu.cPaul Gortmaker
Compiling some arm/m68k configs with "# CONFIG_MMU is not set" reveals two more instances of module_init being used for code that can't possibly be modular, as CONFIG_MMU is either on or off. We replace them with subsys_initcall as per what was done in other mmu-enabled code. Note that direct use of __initcall is discouraged, vs. one of the priority categorized subgroups. As __initcall gets mapped onto device_initcall, our use of subsys_initcall (which makes sense for these files) will thus change this registration from level 6-device to level 4-subsys (i.e. slightly earlier). One might think that core_initcall (l2) or postcore_initcall (l3) would be more appropriate for anything in mm/ but if we look at the actual init functions themselves, we see they are just sysctl setup stuff, and hence the choice of subsys_initcall (l4) seems reasonable. At the same time it minimizes the risk of changing the priority too drastically all at once. We can adjust further in the future. Also, a couple instances of missing ";" at EOL are fixed.

In this case, freeing pages whose refcount is not 0 won't be freed to the page allocator so memory leak happens. To fix the problem, this patch changes __get_free_pages() to alloc_pages_exact() since alloc_pages_exact() returns physically-contiguous pages but each pages are refcounted.

2015-02-11mm/nommu.c: fix arithmetic overflow in __vm_enough_memory()Roman Gushchin
I noticed that "allowed" can easily overflow by falling below 0, because (total_vm / 32) can be larger than "allowed". The problem occurs in OVERCOMMIT_NONE mode. In this case, a huge allocation can success and overcommit the system (despite OVERCOMMIT_NONE mode). All subsequent allocations will fall (system-wide), so system become unusable. The problem was masked out by commit c9b1d0981fcc ("mm: limit growth of 3% hardcoded other user reserve"), but it's easy to reproduce it on older kernels: 1) set overcommit_memory sysctl to 2 2) mmap() large file multiple times (with VM_SHARED flag) 3) try to malloc() large amount of memory It also can be reproduced on newer kernels, but miss-configured sysctl_user_reserve_kbytes is required. Fix this issue by switching to signed arithmetic here.

2015-02-11mm: gup: add get_user_pages_locked and get_user_pages_unlockedAndrea Arcangeli
FAULT_FOLL_ALLOW_RETRY allows the page fault to drop the mmap_sem for reading to reduce the mmap_sem contention (for writing), like while waiting for I/O completion. The problem is that right now practically no get_user_pages call uses FAULT_FOLL_ALLOW_RETRY, so we're not leveraging that nifty feature. Andres fixed it for the KVM page fault. However get_user_pages_fast remains uncovered, and 99% of other get_user_pages aren't using it either (the only exception being FOLL_NOWAIT in KVM which is really nonblocking and in fact it doesn't even release the mmap_sem). So this patchsets extends the optimization Andres did in the KVM page fault to the whole kernel. It makes most important places (including gup_fast) to use FAULT_FOLL_ALLOW_RETRY to reduce the mmap_sem hold times during I/O. The only few places that remains uncovered are drivers like v4l and other exceptions that tends to work on their own memory and they're not working on random user memory (for example like O_DIRECT that uses gup_fast and is fully covered by this patch). A follow up patch should probably also add a printk_once warning to get_user_pages that should go obsolete and be phased out eventually. The "vmas" parameter of get_user_pages makes it fundamentally incompatible with FAULT_FOLL_ALLOW_RETRY (vmas array becomes meaningless the moment the mmap_sem is released). While this is just an optimization, this becomes an absolute requirement for the userfaultfd feature http://lwn.net/Articles/615086/ . The userfaultfd allows to block the page fault, and in order to do so I need to drop the mmap_sem first. So this patch also ensures that all memory where userfaultfd could be registered by KVM, the very first fault (no matter if it is a regular page fault, or a get_user_pages) always has FAULT_FOLL_ALLOW_RETRY set. Then the userfaultfd blocks and it is waken only when the pagetable is already mapped. The second fault attempt after the wakeup doesn't need FAULT_FOLL_ALLOW_RETRY, so it's ok to retry without it. This patch (of 5): We can leverage the VM_FAULT_RETRY functionality in the page fault paths better by using either get_user_pages_locked or get_user_pages_unlocked. The former allows conversion of get_user_pages invocations that will have to pass a "&locked" parameter to know if the mmap_sem was dropped during the call. Example from: down_read(&mm->mmap_sem); do_something() get_user_pages(tsk, mm, ..., pages, NULL); up_read(&mm->mmap_sem); to: int locked = 1; down_read(&mm->mmap_sem); do_something() get_user_pages_locked(tsk, mm, ..., pages, &locked); if (locked) up_read(&mm->mmap_sem); The latter is suitable only as a drop in replacement of the form: down_read(&mm->mmap_sem); get_user_pages(tsk, mm, ..., pages, NULL); up_read(&mm->mmap_sem); into: get_user_pages_unlocked(tsk, mm, ..., pages); Where tsk, mm, the intermediate "..." paramters and "pages" can be any value as before. Just the last parameter of get_user_pages (vmas) must be NULL for get_user_pages_locked|unlocked to be usable (the latter original form wouldn't have been safe anyway if vmas wasn't null, for the former we just make it explicit by dropping the parameter). If vmas is not NULL these two methods cannot be used.

2015-02-10mm: replace remap_file_pages() syscall with emulationKirill A. Shutemov
remap_file_pages(2) was invented to be able efficiently map parts of huge file into limited 32-bit virtual address space such as in database workloads. Nonlinear mappings are pain to support and it seems there's no legitimate use-cases nowadays since 64-bit systems are widely available. Let's drop it and get rid of all these special-cased code. The patch replaces the syscall with emulation which creates new VMA on each remap_file_pages(), unless they it can be merged with an adjacent one. I didn't find *any* real code that uses remap_file_pages(2) to test emulation impact on. I've checked Debian code search and source of all packages in ALT Linux. No real users: libc wrappers, mentions in strace, gdb, valgrind and this kind of stuff. There are few basic tests in LTP for the syscall. They work just fine with emulation. To test performance impact, I've written small test case which demonstrate pretty much worst case scenario: map 4G shmfs file, write to begin of every page pgoff of the page, remap pages in reverse order, read every page. The test creates 1 million of VMAs if emulation is in use, so I had to set vm.max_map_count to 1100000 to avoid -ENOMEM. Before: 23.3 ( +- 4.31% ) seconds After: 43.9 ( +- 0.85% ) seconds Slowdown: 1.88x I believe we can live with that.

Since "BDI: Provide backing device capability information [try #3]" the backing_dev_info structure also provides flags for the kind of mmap operation available in a nommu environment, which is entirely unrelated to it's original purpose. Introduce a new nommu-only file operation to provide this information to the nommu mmap code instead. Splitting this from the backing_dev_info structure allows to remove lots of backing_dev_info instance that aren't otherwise needed, and entirely gets rid of the concept of providing a backing_dev_info for a character device. It also removes the need for the mtd_inodefs filesystem.

2014-06-06mm: convert some level-less printks to pr_*Mitchel Humpherys
printk is meant to be used with an associated log level. There are some instances of printk scattered around the mm code where the log level is missing. Add a log level and adhere to suggestions by scripts/checkpatch.pl by moving to the pr_* macros. Also add the typical pr_fmt definition so that print statements can be easily traced back to the modules where they occur, correlated one with another, etc. This will require the removal of some (now redundant) prefixes on a few print statements.

2014-04-07mm: per-thread vma cachingDavidlohr Bueso
This patch is a continuation of efforts trying to optimize find_vma(), avoiding potentially expensive rbtree walks to locate a vma upon faults. The original approach (https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/11/1/410), where the largest vma was also cached, ended up being too specific and random, thus further comparison with other approaches were needed. There are two things to consider when dealing with this, the cache hit rate and the latency of find_vma(). Improving the hit-rate does not necessarily translate in finding the vma any faster, as the overhead of any fancy caching schemes can be too high to consider. We currently cache the last used vma for the whole address space, which provides a nice optimization, reducing the total cycles in find_vma() by up to 250%, for workloads with good locality. On the other hand, this simple scheme is pretty much useless for workloads with poor locality. Analyzing ebizzy runs shows that, no matter how many threads are running, the mmap_cache hit rate is less than 2%, and in many situations below 1%. The proposed approach is to replace this scheme with a small per-thread cache, maximizing hit rates at a very low maintenance cost. Invalidations are performed by simply bumping up a 32-bit sequence number. The only expensive operation is in the rare case of a seq number overflow, where all caches that share the same address space are flushed. Upon a miss, the proposed replacement policy is based on the page number that contains the virtual address in question. Concretely, the following results are seen on an 80 core, 8 socket x86-64 box: 1) System bootup: Most programs are single threaded, so the per-thread scheme does improve ~50% hit rate by just adding a few more slots to the cache. +----------------+----------+------------------+ | caching scheme | hit-rate | cycles (billion) | +----------------+----------+------------------+ | baseline | 50.61% | 19.90 | | patched | 73.45% | 13.58 | +----------------+----------+------------------+ 2) Kernel build: This one is already pretty good with the current approach as we're dealing with good locality. +----------------+----------+------------------+ | caching scheme | hit-rate | cycles (billion) | +----------------+----------+------------------+ | baseline | 75.28% | 11.03 | | patched | 88.09% | 9.31 | +----------------+----------+------------------+ 3) Oracle 11g Data Mining (4k pages): Similar to the kernel build workload. +----------------+----------+------------------+ | caching scheme | hit-rate | cycles (billion) | +----------------+----------+------------------+ | baseline | 70.66% | 17.14 | | patched | 91.15% | 12.57 | +----------------+----------+------------------+ 4) Ebizzy: There's a fair amount of variation from run to run, but this approach always shows nearly perfect hit rates, while baseline is just about non-existent. The amounts of cycles can fluctuate between anywhere from ~60 to ~116 for the baseline scheme, but this approach reduces it considerably. For instance, with 80 threads: +----------------+----------+------------------+ | caching scheme | hit-rate | cycles (billion) | +----------------+----------+------------------+ | baseline | 1.06% | 91.54 | | patched | 99.97% | 14.18 | +----------------+----------+------------------+ [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix nommu build, per Davidlohr] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: document vmacache_valid() logic] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: attempt to untangle header files] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: add vmacache_find() BUG_ON] [hughd@google.com: add vmacache_valid_mm() (from Oleg)] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: adjust and enhance comments] Signed-off-by: Davidlohr Bueso <davidlohr@hp.com> Reviewed-by: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Acked-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Reviewed-by: Michel Lespinasse <walken@google.com> Cc: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Tested-by: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2014-03-31locks: fix locks_mandatory_locked to respect file-private locksJeff Layton
As Trond pointed out, you can currently deadlock yourself by setting a file-private lock on a file that requires mandatory locking and then trying to do I/O on it. Avoid this problem by plumbing some knowledge of file-private locks into the mandatory locking code. In order to do this, we must pass down information about the struct file that's being used to locks_verify_locked.

2014-01-21mm: add overcommit_kbytes sysctl variableJerome Marchand
Some applications that run on HPC clusters are designed around the availability of RAM and the overcommit ratio is fine tuned to get the maximum usage of memory without swapping. With growing memory, the 1%-of-all-RAM grain provided by overcommit_ratio has become too coarse for these workload (on a 2TB machine it represents no less than 20GB). This patch adds the new overcommit_kbytes sysctl variable that allow a much finer grain.
