2012-12-22dm thin: emit ignore_discard in status when discards disabledMike Snitzer1-2/+4
If "ignore_discard" is specified when creating the thin pool device then discard support is disabled for that device. The pool device's status should reflect this fact rather than stating "no_discard_passdown" (which implies discards are enabled but passdown is disabled).

2012-12-22dm thin: fix race between simultaneous io and discards to same blockJoe Thornber1-25/+59
There is a race when discard bios and non-discard bios are issued simultaneously to the same block. Discard support is expensive for all thin devices precisely because you have to be careful to quiesce the area you're discarding. DM thin must handle this conflicting IO pattern (simultaneous non-discard vs discard) even though a sane application shouldn't be issuing such IO. The race manifests as follows: 1. A non-discard bio is mapped in thin_bio_map. This doesn't lock out parallel activity to the same block. 2. A discard bio is issued to the same block as the non-discard bio. 3. The discard bio is locked in a dm_bio_prison_cell in process_discard to lock out parallel activity against the same block. 4. The non-discard bio's mapping continues and its all_io_entry is incremented so the bio is accounted for in the thin pool's all_io_ds which is a dm_deferred_set used to track time locality of non-discard IO. 5. The non-discard bio is finally locked in a dm_bio_prison_cell in process_bio. The race can result in deadlock, leaving the block layer hanging waiting for completion of a discard bio that never completes, e.g.: INFO: task ruby:15354 blocked for more than 120 seconds. "echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message. ruby D ffffffff8160f0e0 0 15354 15314 0x00000000 ffff8802fb08bc58 0000000000000082 ffff8802fb08bfd8 0000000000012900 ffff8802fb08a010 0000000000012900 0000000000012900 0000000000012900 ffff8802fb08bfd8 0000000000012900 ffff8803324b9480 ffff88032c6f14c0 Call Trace: [<ffffffff814e5a19>] schedule+0x29/0x70 [<ffffffff814e3d85>] schedule_timeout+0x195/0x220 [<ffffffffa06b9bc1>] ? _dm_request+0x111/0x160 [dm_mod] [<ffffffff814e589e>] wait_for_common+0x11e/0x190 [<ffffffff8107a170>] ? try_to_wake_up+0x2b0/0x2b0 [<ffffffff814e59ed>] wait_for_completion+0x1d/0x20 [<ffffffff81233289>] blkdev_issue_discard+0x219/0x260 [<ffffffff81233e79>] blkdev_ioctl+0x6e9/0x7b0 [<ffffffff8119a65c>] block_ioctl+0x3c/0x40 [<ffffffff8117539c>] do_vfs_ioctl+0x8c/0x340 [<ffffffff8119a547>] ? block_llseek+0x67/0xb0 [<ffffffff811756f1>] sys_ioctl+0xa1/0xb0 [<ffffffff810561f6>] ? sys_rt_sigprocmask+0x86/0xd0 [<ffffffff814ef099>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b The thinp-test-suite's test_discard_random_sectors reliably hits this deadlock on fast SSD storage. The fix for this race is that the all_io_entry for a bio must be incremented whilst the dm_bio_prison_cell is held for the bio's associated virtual and physical blocks. That cell locking wasn't occurring early enough in thin_bio_map. This patch fixes this. Care is taken to always call the new function inc_all_io_entry() with the relevant cells locked, but they are generally unlocked before calling issue() to try to avoid holding the cells locked across generic_submit_request. Also, now that thin_bio_map may lock bios in a cell, process_bio() is no longer the only thread that will do so. Because of this we must be sure to use cell_defer_except() to release all non-holder entries, that were added by the other thread, because they must be deferred. This patch depends on "dm thin: replace dm_cell_release_singleton with cell_defer_except".

2012-12-22dm thin: replace dm_cell_release_singleton with cell_defer_exceptJoe Thornber3-39/+12
Change existing users of the function dm_cell_release_singleton to share cell_defer_except instead, and then remove the now-unused function. Everywhere that calls dm_cell_release_singleton, the bio in question is the holder of the cell. If there are no non-holder entries in the cell then cell_defer_except behaves exactly like dm_cell_release_singleton. Conversely, if there *are* non-holder entries then dm_cell_release_singleton must not be used because those entries would need to be deferred. Consequently, it is safe to replace use of dm_cell_release_singleton with cell_defer_except. This patch is a pre-requisite for "dm thin: fix race between simultaneous io and discards to same block".

WRITE SAME bios are not yet handled correctly by device-mapper so disable their use on device-mapper devices by setting max_write_same_sectors to zero.

2012-12-22dm ioctl: prevent unsafe change to dm_ioctl data_sizeAlasdair G Kergon1-0/+8
Abort dm ioctl processing if userspace changes the data_size parameter after we validated it but before we finished copying the data buffer from userspace. The dm ioctl parameters are processed in the following sequence: 1. ctl_ioctl() calls copy_params(); 2. copy_params() makes a first copy of the fixed-sized portion of the userspace parameters into the local variable "tmp"; 3. copy_params() then validates tmp.data_size and allocates a new structure big enough to hold the complete data and copies the whole userspace buffer there; 4. ctl_ioctl() reads userspace data the second time and copies the whole buffer into the pointer "param"; 5. ctl_ioctl() reads param->data_size without any validation and stores it in the variable "input_param_size"; 6. "input_param_size" is further used as the authoritative size of the kernel buffer. The problem is that userspace code could change the contents of user memory between steps 2 and 4. In particular, the data_size parameter can be changed to an invalid value after the kernel has validated it. This lets userspace force the kernel to access invalid kernel memory. The fix is to ensure that the size has not changed at step 4. This patch shouldn't have a security impact because CAP_SYS_ADMIN is required to run this code, but it should be fixed anyway.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) Netlink socket dumping had several missing verifications and checks. In particular, address comparisons in the request byte code interpreter could access past the end of the address in the inet_request_sock. Also, address family and address prefix lengths were not validated properly at all. This means arbitrary applications can read past the end of certain kernel data structures. Fixes from Neal Cardwell. 2) ip_check_defrag() operates in contexts where we're in the process of, or about to, input the packet into the real protocols (specifically macvlan and AF_PACKET snooping). Unfortunately, it does a pskb_may_pull() which can modify the backing packet data which is not legal if the SKB is shared. It very much can be shared in this context. Deal with the possibility that the SKB is segmented by using skb_copy_bits(). Fix from Johannes Berg based upon a report by Eric Leblond. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: ipv4: ip_check_defrag must not modify skb before unsharing inet_diag: validate port comparison byte code to prevent unsafe reads inet_diag: avoid unsafe and nonsensical prefix matches in inet_diag_bc_run() inet_diag: validate byte code to prevent oops in inet_diag_bc_run() inet_diag: fix oops for IPv4 AF_INET6 TCP SYN-RECV state
2012-12-10Revert "revert "Revert "mm: remove __GFP_NO_KSWAPD""" and associated damageLinus Torvalds5-13/+20
This reverts commits a50915394f1fc02c2861d3b7ce7014788aa5066e and d7c3b937bdf45f0b844400b7bf6fd3ed50bac604. This is a revert of a revert of a revert. In addition, it reverts the even older i915 change to stop using the __GFP_NO_KSWAPD flag due to the original commits in linux-next. It turns out that the original patch really was bogus, and that the original revert was the correct thing to do after all. We thought we had fixed the problem, and then reverted the revert, but the problem really is fundamental: waking up kswapd simply isn't the right thing to do, and direct reclaim sometimes simply _is_ the right thing to do. When certain allocations fail, we simply should try some direct reclaim, and if that fails, fail the allocation. That's the right thing to do for THP allocations, which can easily fail, and the GPU allocations want to do that too. So starting kswapd is sometimes simply wrong, and removing the flag that said "don't start kswapd" was a mistake. Let's hope we never revisit this mistake again - and certainly not this many times ;) Acked-by: Mel Gorman <mgorman@suse.de> Acked-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

We are going to reinstate the __GFP_NO_KSWAPD flag that has been removed, the removal reverted, and then removed again. Making this commit a pointless fixup for a problem that was caused by the removal of __GFP_NO_KSWAPD flag. The thing is, we really don't want to wake up kswapd for THP allocations (because they fail quite commonly under any kind of memory pressure, including when there is tons of memory free), and these patches were just trying to fix up the underlying bug: the original removal of __GFP_NO_KSWAPD in commit c654345924f7 ("mm: remove __GFP_NO_KSWAPD") was simply bogus.

Add logic to verify that a port comparison byte code operation actually has the second inet_diag_bc_op from which we read the port for such operations. Previously the code blindly referenced op[1] without first checking whether a second inet_diag_bc_op struct could fit there. So a malicious user could make the kernel read 4 bytes beyond the end of the bytecode array by claiming to have a whole port comparison byte code (2 inet_diag_bc_op structs) when in fact the bytecode was not long enough to hold both.

2012-12-10inet_diag: avoid unsafe and nonsensical prefix matches in inet_diag_bc_run()Neal Cardwell1-11/+17
Add logic to check the address family of the user-supplied conditional and the address family of the connection entry. We now do not do prefix matching of addresses from different address families (AF_INET vs AF_INET6), except for the previously existing support for having an IPv4 prefix match an IPv4-mapped IPv6 address (which this commit maintains as-is). This change is needed for two reasons: (1) The addresses are different lengths, so comparing a 128-bit IPv6 prefix match condition to a 32-bit IPv4 connection address can cause us to unwittingly walk off the end of the IPv4 address and read garbage or oops. (2) The IPv4 and IPv6 address spaces are semantically distinct, so a simple bit-wise comparison of the prefixes is not meaningful, and would lead to bogus results (except for the IPv4-mapped IPv6 case, which this commit maintains).

Fix inet_diag to be aware of the fact that AF_INET6 TCP connections instantiated for IPv4 traffic and in the SYN-RECV state were actually created with inet_reqsk_alloc(), instead of inet6_reqsk_alloc(). This means that for such connections inet6_rsk(req) returns a pointer to a random spot in memory up to roughly 64KB beyond the end of the request_sock. With this bug, for a server using AF_INET6 TCP sockets and serving IPv4 traffic, an inet_diag user like `ss state SYN-RECV` would lead to inet_diag_fill_req() causing an oops or the export to user space of 16 bytes of kernel memory as a garbage IPv6 address, depending on where the garbage inet6_rsk(req) pointed.

commit c702418f8a2f ("mm: vmscan: do not keep kswapd looping forever due to individual uncompactable zones") removed zone watermark checks from the compaction code in kswapd but left in the zone congestion clearing, which now happens unconditionally on higher order reclaim. This messes up the reclaim throttling logic for zones with dirty/writeback pages, where zones should only lose their congestion status when their watermarks have been restored. Remove the clearing from the zone compaction section entirely. The preliminary zone check and the reclaim loop in kswapd will clear it if the zone is considered balanced.

2012-12-08vfs: fix O_DIRECT read past end of block deviceLinus Torvalds1-1/+17
The direct-IO write path already had the i_size checks in mm/filemap.c, but it turns out the read path did not, and removing the block size checks in fs/block_dev.c (commit bbec0270bdd8: "blkdev_max_block: make private to fs/buffer.c") removed the magic "shrink IO to past the end of the device" code there. Fix it by truncating the IO to the size of the block device, like the write path already does. NOTE! I suspect the write path would be *much* better off doing it this way in fs/block_dev.c, rather than hidden deep in mm/filemap.c. The mm/filemap.c code is extremely hard to follow, and has various conditionals on the target being a block device (ie the flag passed in to 'generic_write_checks()', along with a conditional update of the inode timestamp etc). It is also quite possible that we should treat this whole block device size as a "s_maxbytes" issue, and try to make the logic even more generic. However, in the meantime this is the fairly minimal targeted fix. Noted by Milan Broz thanks to a regression test for the cryptsetup reencrypt tool.

2012-12-07tcp: bug fix Fast Open client retransmissionYuchung Cheng3-6/+16
If SYN-ACK partially acks SYN-data, the client retransmits the remaining data by tcp_retransmit_skb(). This increments lost recovery state variables like tp->retrans_out in Open state. If loss recovery happens before the retransmission is acked, it triggers the WARN_ON check in tcp_fastretrans_alert(). For example: the client sends SYN-data, gets SYN-ACK acking only ISN, retransmits data, sends another 4 data packets and get 3 dupacks. Since the retransmission is not caused by network drop it should not update the recovery state variables. Further the server may return a smaller MSS than the cached MSS used for SYN-data, so the retranmission needs a loop. Otherwise some data will not be retransmitted until timeout or other loss recovery events.

This fixes a regression in 3.7-rc, which has since gone into stable. Commit 00442ad04a5e ("mempolicy: fix a memory corruption by refcount imbalance in alloc_pages_vma()") changed get_vma_policy() to raise the refcount on a shmem shared mempolicy; whereas shmem_alloc_page() went on expecting alloc_page_vma() to drop the refcount it had acquired. This deserves a rework: but for now fix the leak in shmem_alloc_page(). Hugh: shmem_swapin() did not need a fix, but surely it's clearer to use the same refcounting there as in shmem_alloc_page(), delete its onstack mempolicy, and the strange mpol_cond_copy() and __mpol_cond_copy() - those were invented to let swapin_readahead() make an unknown number of calls to alloc_pages_vma() with one mempolicy; but since 00442ad04a5e, alloc_pages_vma() has kept refcount in balance, so now no problem.

2012-12-06mm: vmscan: do not keep kswapd looping forever due to individual ↵Johannes Weiner1-16/+0
uncompactable zones When a zone meets its high watermark and is compactable in case of higher order allocations, it contributes to the percentage of the node's memory that is considered balanced. This requirement, that a node be only partially balanced, came about when kswapd was desparately trying to balance tiny zones when all bigger zones in the node had plenty of free memory. Arguably, the same should apply to compaction: if a significant part of the node is balanced enough to run compaction, do not get hung up on that tiny zone that might never get in shape. When the compaction logic in kswapd is reached, we know that at least 25% of the node's memory is balanced properly for compaction (see zone_balanced and pgdat_balanced). Remove the individual zone checks that restart the kswapd cycle. Otherwise, we may observe more endless looping in kswapd where the compaction code loops back to reclaim because of a single zone and reclaim does nothing because the node is considered balanced overall.

Commit 0bf380bc70ec ("mm: compaction: check pfn_valid when entering a new MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES block during isolation for migration") added a check for pfn_valid() when isolating pages for migration as the scanner does not necessarily start pageblock-aligned. Since commit c89511ab2f8f ("mm: compaction: Restart compaction from near where it left off"), the free scanner has the same problem. This patch makes sure that the pfn range passed to isolate_freepages_block() is within the same block so that pfn_valid() checks are unnecessary. In answer to Henrik's wondering why others have not reported this: reproducing this requires a large enough hole with the right aligment to have compaction walk into a PFN range with no memmap. Size and alignment depends in the memory model - 4M for FLATMEM and 128M for SPARSEMEM on x86. It needs a "lucky" machine.

2012-12-05MIPS: Fix endless loop when processing signals for kernel tasksDmitry Adamushko1-1/+6
The problem occurs [1] when a kernel-mode task returns from a system call with a pending signal. A real-life scenario is a child of 'khelper' returning from a failed kernel_execve() in ____call_usermodehelper() [ kernel/kmod.c ]. kernel_execve() fails due to a pending SIGKILL, which is the result of "kill -9 -1" (at least, busybox's init does it upon reboot). The loop is as follows: * syscall_exit_work: - work_pending: // start_of_the_loop - work_notifysig: - do_notify_resume() - do_signal() - if (!user_mode(regs)) return; - resume_userspace // TIF_SIGPENDING is still set - work_pending // so we call work_pending => goto // start_of_the_loop More information can be found in another LKML thread: http://www.serverphorums.com/read.php?12,457826 [1] The problem was also reproduced on !CONFIG_VM86 x86, and the following fix was accepted. http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=29a2e2836ff9ea65a603c89df217f4198973a74f Signed-off-by: Dmitry Adamushko <dmitry.adamushko@gmail.com> Cc: linux-mips@linux-mips.org Patchwork: https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/3571/ Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

Don't use enum-type bitfields in the module signature info block as we can't be certain how the compiler will handle them. As I understand it, it is arch dependent, and it is possible for the compiler to rearrange them based on endianness and to insert a byte of padding to pad the three enums out to four bytes. Instead use u8 fields for these, which the compiler should emit in the right order without padding.

Norbert reported: "3.7-rc6 booted with nmi_watchdog=0 fails to suspend to RAM or offline CPUs. It's reproducable with a KVM guest and physical system." The reason is that commit bcd951cf(watchdog: Use hotplug thread infrastructure) missed to take this into account. So the cpu offline code gets stuck in the teardown function because it accesses non initialized data structures. Add a check for watchdog_enabled into that path to cure the issue.

Commit 8852aac25e79 ("workqueue: mod_delayed_work_on() shouldn't queue timer on 0 delay") had the side-effect of performing delayed_work sanity checks even when @delay is 0, which should be fine for any sane use cases. Unfortunately, megaraid was being overly ingenious. It seemingly wanted to use cancel_delayed_work_sync() before cancel_work_sync() was introduced, but didn't want to waste the space for full delayed_work as it was only going to use 0 @delay. So, it only allocated space for struct work_struct and then cast it to struct delayed_work and passed it into delayed_work functions - truly awesome engineering tradeoff to save some bytes. Xiaotian fixed it by making megraid allocate full delayed_work for now. It should be converted to use work_struct and cancel_work_sync() but I think we better do that after 3.7. I added another commit to change BUG_ON()s in __queue_delayed_work() to WARN_ON_ONCE()s so that the kernel doesn't crash even if there are more such abuses." * 'for-3.7-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq: workqueue: convert BUG_ON()s in __queue_delayed_work() to WARN_ON_ONCE()s megaraid: fix BUG_ON() from incorrect use of delayed work

2012-12-04vfs: avoid "attempt to access beyond end of device" warningsLinus Torvalds1-0/+52
The block device access simplification that avoided accessing the (racy) block size information (commit bbec0270bdd8: "blkdev_max_block: make private to fs/buffer.c") no longer checks the maximum block size in the block mapping path. That was _almost_ as simple as just removing the code entirely, because the readers and writers all check the size of the device anyway, so under normal circumstances it "just worked". However, the block size may be such that the end of the device may straddle one single buffer_head. At which point we may still want to access the end of the device, but the buffer we use to access it partially extends past the end. The 'bd_set_size()' function intentionally sets the block size to avoid this, but mounting the device - or setting the block size by hand to some other value - can modify that block size. So instead, teach 'submit_bh()' about the special case of the buffer head straddling the end of the device, and turning such an access into a smaller IO access, avoiding the problem. This, btw, also means that unlike before, we can now access the whole device regardless of device block size setting. So now, even if the device size is only 512-byte aligned, we can read and write even the last sector even when having a much bigger block size for accessing the rest of the device. So with this, we could now get rid of the 'bd_set_size()' block size code entirely - resulting in faster IO for the common case - but that would be a separate patch.

2012-12-04workqueue: convert BUG_ON()s in __queue_delayed_work() to WARN_ON_ONCE()sTejun Heo1-2/+2
8852aac25e ("workqueue: mod_delayed_work_on() shouldn't queue timer on 0 delay") unexpectedly uncovered a very nasty abuse of delayed_work in megaraid - it allocated work_struct, casted it to delayed_work and then pass that into queue_delayed_work(). Previously, this was okay because 0 @delay short-circuited to queue_work() before doing anything with delayed_work. 8852aac25e moved 0 @delay test into __queue_delayed_work() after sanity check on delayed_work making megaraid trigger BUG_ON(). Although megaraid is already fixed by c1d390d8e6 ("megaraid: fix BUG_ON() from incorrect use of delayed work"), this patch converts BUG_ON()s in __queue_delayed_work() to WARN_ON_ONCE()s so that such abusers, if there are more, trigger warning but don't crash the machine.

2012-12-04MIPS: Avoid mcheck by flushing page range in huge_ptep_set_access_flags()David Daney2-15/+15
Problem: 1) Huge page mapping of anonymous memory is initially invalid. Will be faulted in by copy-on-write mechanism. 2) Userspace attempts store at the end of the huge mapping. 3) TLB Refill exception handler fill TLB with a normal (4K sized) invalid page at the end of the huge mapping virtual address range. 4) Userspace restarted, and re-attempts the store at the end of the huge mapping. 5) Page from #3 is invalid, we get a fault and go to the hugepage fault handler. This tries to map a huge page and calls huge_ptep_set_access_flags() to install the mapping. 6) We just call the generic ptep_set_access_flags() to set up the page tables, but the flush there assumes a normal (4K sized) page and only tries to flush the first part of the huge page virtual address out of the TLB, since the existing entry from step #3 doesn't conflict, nothing is flushed. 7) We attempt to load the mapping into the TLB, but because it conflicts with the entry from step #3, we get a Machine Check exception. The fix: Flush the entire rage covered by the huge page in huge_ptep_set_access_flags(), and remove the optimization in local_flush_tlb_range() so that the flush actually does the correct thing.
