Pull SLUB updates from Vlastimil Babka: "SLUB: reduce irq disabled scope and make it RT compatible This series was initially inspired by Mel's pcplist local_lock rewrite, and also interest to better understand SLUB's locking and the new primitives and RT variants and implications. It makes SLUB compatible with PREEMPT_RT and generally more preemption-friendly, apparently without significant regressions, as the fast paths are not affected. The main changes to SLUB by this series: - irq disabling is now only done for minimum amount of time needed to protect the strict kmem_cache_cpu fields, and as part of spin lock, local lock and bit lock operations to make them irq-safe - SLUB is fully PREEMPT_RT compatible The series should now be sufficiently tested in both RT and !RT configs, mainly thanks to Mike. The RFC/v1 version also got basic performance screening by Mel that didn't show major regressions. Mike's testing with hackbench of v2 on !RT reported negligible differences [6]: virgin(ish) tip 5.13.0.g60ab3ed-tip 7,320.67 msec task-clock # 7.792 CPUs utilized ( +- 0.31% ) 221,215 context-switches # 0.030 M/sec ( +- 3.97% ) 16,234 cpu-migrations # 0.002 M/sec ( +- 4.07% ) 13,233 page-faults # 0.002 M/sec ( +- 0.91% ) 27,592,205,252 cycles # 3.769 GHz ( +- 0.32% ) 8,309,495,040 instructions # 0.30 insn per cycle ( +- 0.37% ) 1,555,210,607 branches # 212.441 M/sec ( +- 0.42% ) 5,484,209 branch-misses # 0.35% of all branches ( +- 2.13% ) 0.93949 +- 0.00423 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.45% ) 0.94608 +- 0.00384 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.41% ) (repeat) 0.94422 +- 0.00410 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.43% ) 5.13.0.g60ab3ed-tip +slub-local-lock-v2r3 7,343.57 msec task-clock # 7.776 CPUs utilized ( +- 0.44% ) 223,044 context-switches # 0.030 M/sec ( +- 3.02% ) 16,057 cpu-migrations # 0.002 M/sec ( +- 4.03% ) 13,164 page-faults # 0.002 M/sec ( +- 0.97% ) 27,684,906,017 cycles # 3.770 GHz ( +- 0.45% ) 8,323,273,871 instructions # 0.30 insn per cycle ( +- 0.28% ) 1,556,106,680 branches # 211.901 M/sec ( +- 0.31% ) 5,463,468 branch-misses # 0.35% of all branches ( +- 1.33% ) 0.94440 +- 0.00352 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.37% ) 0.94830 +- 0.00228 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.24% ) (repeat) 0.93813 +- 0.00440 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.47% ) (repeat) RT configs showed some throughput regressions, but that's expected tradeoff for the preemption improvements through the RT mutex. It didn't prevent the v2 to be incorporated to the 5.13 RT tree [7], leading to testing exposure and bugfixes. Before the series, SLUB is lockless in both allocation and free fast paths, but elsewhere, it's disabling irqs for considerable periods of time - especially in allocation slowpath and the bulk allocation, where IRQs are re-enabled only when a new page from the page allocator is needed, and the context allows blocking. The irq disabled sections can then include deactivate_slab() which walks a full freelist and frees the slab back to page allocator or unfreeze_partials() going through a list of percpu partial slabs. The RT tree currently has some patches mitigating these, but we can do much better in mainline too. Patches 1-6 are straightforward improvements or cleanups that could exist outside of this series too, but are prerequsities. Patches 7-9 are also preparatory code changes without functional changes, but not so useful without the rest of the series. Patch 10 simplifies the fast paths on systems with preemption, based on (hopefully correct) observation that the current loops to verify tid are unnecessary. Patches 11-20 focus on reducing irq disabled scope in the allocation slowpath: - patch 11 moves disabling of irqs into ___slab_alloc() from its callers, which are the allocation slowpath, and bulk allocation. Instead these callers only disable preemption to stabilize the cpu. - The following patches then gradually reduce the scope of disabled irqs in ___slab_alloc() and the functions called from there. As of patch 14, the re-enabling of irqs based on gfp flags before calling the page allocator is removed from allocate_slab(). As of patch 17, it's possible to reach the page allocator (in case of existing slabs depleted) without disabling and re-enabling irqs a single time. Pathces 21-26 reduce the scope of disabled irqs in functions related to unfreezing percpu partial slab. Patch 27 is preparatory. Patch 28 is adopted from the RT tree and converts the flushing of percpu slabs on all cpus from using IPI to workqueue, so that the processing isn't happening with irqs disabled in the IPI handler. The flushing is not performance critical so it should be acceptable. Patch 29 also comes from RT tree and makes object_map_lock RT compatible. Patch 30 make slab_lock irq-safe on RT where we cannot rely on having irq disabled from the list_lock spin lock usage. Patch 31 changes kmem_cache_cpu->partial handling in put_cpu_partial() from cmpxchg loop to a short irq disabled section, which is used by all other code modifying the field. This addresses a theoretical race scenario pointed out by Jann, and makes the critical section safe wrt with RT local_lock semantics after the conversion in patch 35. Patch 32 changes preempt disable to migrate disable, so that the nested list_lock spinlock is safe to take on RT. Because migrate_disable() is a function call even on !RT, a small set of private wrappers is introduced to keep using the cheaper preempt_disable() on !PREEMPT_RT configurations. As of this patch, SLUB should be already compatible with RT's lock semantics. Finally, patch 33 changes irq disabled sections that protect kmem_cache_cpu fields in the slow paths, with a local lock. However on PREEMPT_RT it means the lockless fast paths can now preempt slow paths which don't expect that, so the local lock has to be taken also in the fast paths and they are no longer lockless. RT folks seem to not mind this tradeoff. The patch also updates the locking documentation in the file's comment" Mike Galbraith and Mel Gorman verified that their earlier testing observations still hold for the final series: Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/89ba4f783114520c167cc915ba949ad2c04d6790.camel@gmx.de/ Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210907082010.GB3959@techsingularity.net/ * tag 'mm-slub-5.15-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vbabka/linux: (33 commits) mm, slub: convert kmem_cpu_slab protection to local_lock mm, slub: use migrate_disable() on PREEMPT_RT mm, slub: protect put_cpu_partial() with disabled irqs instead of cmpxchg mm, slub: make slab_lock() disable irqs with PREEMPT_RT mm: slub: make object_map_lock a raw_spinlock_t mm: slub: move flush_cpu_slab() invocations __free_slab() invocations out of IRQ context mm, slab: split out the cpu offline variant of flush_slab() mm, slub: don't disable irqs in slub_cpu_dead() mm, slub: only disable irq with spin_lock in __unfreeze_partials() mm, slub: separate detaching of partial list in unfreeze_partials() from unfreezing mm, slub: detach whole partial list at once in unfreeze_partials() mm, slub: discard slabs in unfreeze_partials() without irqs disabled mm, slub: move irq control into unfreeze_partials() mm, slub: call deactivate_slab() without disabling irqs mm, slub: make locking in deactivate_slab() irq-safe mm, slub: move reset of c->page and freelist out of deactivate_slab() mm, slub: stop disabling irqs around get_partial() mm, slub: check new pages with restored irqs mm, slub: validate slab from partial list or page allocator before making it cpu slab mm, slub: restore irqs around calling new_slab() ... -

sysvipc_find_ipc() was left with a costly way to check if the offset position fed to it is bigger than the total number of IPC IDs in use. So much so that the time it takes to iterate over /proc/sysvipc/* files grows exponentially for a custom benchmark that creates "N" SYSV shm segments and then times the read of /proc/sysvipc/shm (milliseconds): 12 msecs to read 1024 segs from /proc/sysvipc/shm 18 msecs to read 2048 segs from /proc/sysvipc/shm 65 msecs to read 4096 segs from /proc/sysvipc/shm 325 msecs to read 8192 segs from /proc/sysvipc/shm 1303 msecs to read 16384 segs from /proc/sysvipc/shm 5182 msecs to read 32768 segs from /proc/sysvipc/shm The root problem lies with the loop that computes the total amount of ids in use to check if the "pos" feeded to sysvipc_find_ipc() grew bigger than "ids->in_use". That is a quite inneficient way to get to the maximum index in the id lookup table, specially when that value is already provided by struct ipc_ids.max_idx. This patch follows up on the optimization introduced via commit 15df03c8 ("sysvipc: make get_maxid O(1) again") and gets rid of the aforementioned costly loop replacing it by a simpler checkpoint based on ipc_get_maxidx() returned value, which allows for a smooth linear increase in time complexity for the same custom benchmark: 2 msecs to read 1024 segs from /proc/sysvipc/shm 2 msecs to read 2048 segs from /proc/sysvipc/shm 4 msecs to read 4096 segs from /proc/sysvipc/shm 9 msecs to read 8192 segs from /proc/sysvipc/shm 19 msecs to read 16384 segs from /proc/sysvipc/shm 39 msecs to read 32768 segs from /proc/sysvipc/shm Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210809203554.1562989-1-aquini@redhat.com Signed-off-by:Rafael Aquini <aquini@redhat.com> Acked-by:

Keno Fischer reported that when a binray loaded via ld-linux-x the prctl(PR_SET_MM_MAP) doesn't allow to setup brk value because it lays before mm:end_data. For example a test program shows | # ~/t | | start_code 401000 | end_code 401a15 | start_stack 7ffce4577dd0 | start_data 403e10 | end_data 40408c | start_brk b5b000 | sbrk(0) b5b000 and when executed via ld-linux | # /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 ~/t | | start_code 7fc25b0a4000 | end_code 7fc25b0c4524 | start_stack 7fffcc6b2400 | start_data 7fc25b0ce4c0 | end_data 7fc25b0cff98 | start_brk 55555710c000 | sbrk(0) 55555710c000 This of course prevent criu from restoring such programs. Looking into how kernel operates with brk/start_brk inside brk() syscall I don't see any problem if we allow to setup brk/start_brk without checking for end_data. Even if someone pass some weird address here on a purpose then the worst possible result will be an unexpected unmapping of existing vma (own vma, since prctl works with the callers memory) but test for RLIMIT_DATA is still valid and a user won't be able to gain more memory in case of expanding VMAs via new values shipped with prctl call.

For obvious security reasons, a core dump is aborted if the filesystem cannot preserve ownership or permissions of the dump file. This affects filesystems like e.g. vfat, but also something like a 9pfs share in a Qemu test setup, running as a regular user, depending on the security model used. In those cases, the result is an empty core file and a confused user. To hopefully save other people a lot of time figuring out the cause, this patch adds a simple log message for those specific cases.

When the refcount is decreased to 0, the resource reclamation branch is entered. Before CPU0 reaches the race point (1), CPU1 may obtain the spinlock and traverse the rbtree to find 'root', see nilfs_lookup_root(). Although CPU1 will call refcount_inc() to increase the refcount, it is obviously too late. CPU0 will release 'root' directly, CPU1 then accesses 'root' and triggers UAF.

In nilfs_##name##_attr_release, kobj->parent should not be referenced because it is a NULL pointer. The release() method of kobject is always called in kobject_put(kobj), in the implementation of kobject_put(), the kobj->parent will be assigned as NULL before call the release() method. So just use kobj to get the subgroups, which is more efficient and can fix a NULL pointer reference problem.

And the place of cleanup_dev_kobject should use kobject_put to free the memory associated with the kobject. As the section "Kobject removal" of "Documentation/core-api/kobject.rst" says, kobject_del() just makes the kobject "invisible", but it is not cleaned up. And no more cleanup will do after cleanup_dev_kobject, so kobject_put is needed here.

Currently, usermodehelper is enabled right before PID1 starts going through the initcalls. However, any call of a usermodehelper from a pure_, core_, postcore_, arch_, subsys_ or fs_ initcall is futile, as there is no filesystem contents yet. Up until commit e7cb072e ("init/initramfs.c: do unpacking asynchronously"), such calls, whether via some request_module(), a legacy uevent "/sbin/hotplug" notification or something else, would just fail silently with (presumably) -ENOENT from kernel_execve(). However, that commit introduced the wait_for_initramfs() synchronization hook which must be called from the usermodehelper exec path right before the kernel_execve, in order that request_module() et al done from *after* rootfs_initcall() time (i.e. device_ and late_ initcalls) would continue to find a populated initramfs as they used to. Any call of wait_for_initramfs() done before the unpacking has been scheduled (i.e. before rootfs_initcall time) must just return immediately [and let the caller find an empty file system] in order not to deadlock the machine. I mistakenly thought, and my limited testing confirmed, that there were no such calls, so I added a pr_warn_once() in wait_for_initramfs(). It turns out that one can indeed hit request_module() as well as kobject_uevent_env() during those early init calls, leading to a user-visible warning in the kernel log emitted consistently for certain configurations. We could just remove the pr_warn_once(), but I think it's better to postpone enabling the usermodehelper framework until there is at least some chance of finding the executable. That is also a little more efficient in that a lot of work done in umh.c will be elided. However, it does change the error seen by those early callers from -ENOENT to -EBUSY, so there is a risk of a regression if any caller care about the exact error value.

The current tests fail when the "Title line" has one or more embedded double quotes.

Instead of checkpatch requiring the patch author to exactly match the signed-off-by tag, commit 48ca2d8a ("checkpatch: add new warnings to author signoff checks.") safely relaxed this requirement. Although the local-part of an email address (local-part@domain), may be case sensitive, exploiting the case sensitivity of mailbox local-parts impedes interoperability and is discouraged. Mailbox domains follow normal DNS rules and are hence not case sensitive. (Refer to https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc5321#section-2.4.) Further relax the patch author and signed-off-by tag comparison by making the email address check case insensitive.

Converting this test to KUnit makes the test a bit shorter, standardizes how it reports pass/fail, and adds an easier way to run the test [1].
