Merge branch 'expand-stack'

2023-06-29T03:35:21+00:00

This modifies our user mode stack expansion code to always take the mmap_lock for writing before modifying the VM layout. It's actually something we always technically should have done, but because we didn't strictly need it, we were being lazy ("opportunistic" sounds so much better, doesn't it?) about things, and had this hack in place where we would extend the stack vma in-place without doing the proper locking. And it worked fine. We just needed to change vm_start (or, in the case of grow-up stacks, vm_end) and together with some special ad-hoc locking using the anon_vma lock and the mm->page_table_lock, it all was fairly straightforward. That is, it was all fine until Ruihan Li pointed out that now that the vma layout uses the maple tree code, we *really* don't just change vm_start and vm_end any more, and the locking really is broken. Oops. It's not actually all _that_ horrible to fix this once and for all, and do proper locking, but it's a bit painful. We have basically three different cases of stack expansion, and they all work just a bit differently: - the common and obvious case is the page fault handling. It's actually fairly simple and straightforward, except for the fact that we have something like 24 different versions of it, and you end up in a maze of twisty little passages, all alike. - the simplest case is the execve() code that creates a new stack. There are no real locking concerns because it's all in a private new VM that hasn't been exposed to anybody, but lockdep still can end up unhappy if you get it wrong. - and finally, we have GUP and page pinning, which shouldn't really be expanding the stack in the first place, but in addition to execve() we also use it for ptrace(). And debuggers do want to possibly access memory under the stack pointer and thus need to be able to expand the stack as a special case. None of these cases are exactly complicated, but the page fault case in particular is just repeated slightly differently many many times. And ia64 in particular has a fairly complicated situation where you can have both a regular grow-down stack _and_ a special grow-up stack for the register backing store. So to make this slightly more manageable, the bulk of this series is to first create a helper function for the most common page fault case, and convert all the straightforward architectures to it. Thus the new 'lock_mm_and_find_vma()' helper function, which ends up being used by x86, arm, powerpc, mips, riscv, alpha, arc, csky, hexagon, loongarch, nios2, sh, sparc32, and xtensa. So we not only convert more than half the architectures, we now have more shared code and avoid some of those twisty little passages. And largely due to this common helper function, the full diffstat of this series ends up deleting more lines than it adds. That still leaves eight architectures (ia64, m68k, microblaze, openrisc, parisc, s390, sparc64 and um) that end up doing 'expand_stack()' manually because they are doing something slightly different from the normal pattern. Along with the couple of special cases in execve() and GUP. So there's a couple of patches that first create 'locked' helper versions of the stack expansion functions, so that there's a obvious path forward in the conversion. The execve() case is then actually pretty simple, and is a nice cleanup from our old "grow-up stackls are special, because at execve time even they grow down". The #ifdef CONFIG_STACK_GROWSUP in that code just goes away, because it's just more straightforward to write out the stack expansion there manually, instead od having get_user_pages_remote() do it for us in some situations but not others and have to worry about locking rules for GUP. And the final step is then to just convert the remaining odd cases to a new world order where 'expand_stack()' is called with the mmap_lock held for reading, but where it might drop it and upgrade it to a write, only to return with it held for reading (in the success case) or with it completely dropped (in the failure case). In the process, we remove all the stack expansion from GUP (where dropping the lock wouldn't be ok without special rules anyway), and add it in manually to __access_remote_vm() for ptrace(). Thanks to Adrian Glaubitz and Frank Scheiner who tested the ia64 cases. Everything else here felt pretty straightforward, but the ia64 rules for stack expansion are really quite odd and very different from everything else. Also thanks to Vegard Nossum who caught me getting one of those odd conditions entirely the wrong way around. Anyway, I think I want to actually move all the stack expansion code to a whole new file of its own, rather than have it split up between mm/mmap.c and mm/memory.c, but since this will have to be backported to the initial maple tree vma introduction anyway, I tried to keep the patches _fairly_ minimal. Also, while I don't think it's valid to expand the stack from GUP, the final patch in here is a "warn if some crazy GUP user wants to try to expand the stack" patch. That one will be reverted before the final release, but it's left to catch any odd cases during the merge window and release candidates.

mm: always expand the stack with the mmap write lock held

2023-06-27T16:41:30+00:00

This finishes the job of always holding the mmap write lock when extending the user stack vma, and removes the 'write_locked' argument from the vm helper functions again. For some cases, we just avoid expanding the stack at all: drivers and page pinning really shouldn't be extending any stacks. Let's see if any strange users really wanted that. It's worth noting that architectures that weren't converted to the new lock_mm_and_find_vma() helper function are left using the legacy "expand_stack()" function, but it has been changed to drop the mmap_lock and take it for writing while expanding the vma. This makes it fairly straightforward to convert the remaining architectures. As a result of dropping and re-taking the lock, the calling conventions for this function have also changed, since the old vma may no longer be valid. So it will now return the new vma if successful, and NULL - and the lock dropped - if the area could not be extended.

execve: expand new process stack manually ahead of time

2023-06-24T21:13:55+00:00

This is a small step towards a model where GUP itself would not expand the stack, and any user that needs GUP to not look up existing mappings, but actually expand on them, would have to do so manually before-hand, and with the mm lock held for writing. It turns out that execve() already did almost exactly that, except it didn't take the mm lock at all (it's single-threaded so no locking technically needed, but it could cause lockdep errors). And it only did it for the CONFIG_STACK_GROWSUP case, since in that case GUP has obviously never expanded the stack downwards. So just make that CONFIG_STACK_GROWSUP case do the right thing with locking, and enable it generally. This will eventually help GUP, and in the meantime avoids a special case and the lockdep issue.

mm: make find_extend_vma() fail if write lock not held

2023-06-24T21:13:54+00:00

Make calls to extend_vma() and find_extend_vma() fail if the write lock is required. To avoid making this a flag-day event, this still allows the old read-locking case for the trivial situations, and passes in a flag to say "is it write-locked". That way write-lockers can say "yes, I'm being careful", and legacy users will continue to work in all the common cases until they have been fully converted to the new world order.

fsnotify: move fsnotify_open() hook into do_dentry_open()

2023-06-12T08:43:45+00:00

fsnotify_open() hook is called only from high level system calls context and not called for the very many helpers to open files. This may makes sense for many of the special file open cases, but it is inconsistent with fsnotify_close() hook that is called for every last fput() of on a file object with FMODE_OPENED. As a result, it is possible to observe ACCESS, MODIFY and CLOSE events without ever observing an OPEN event. Fix this inconsistency by replacing all the fsnotify_open() hooks with a single hook inside do_dentry_open(). If there are special cases that would like to opt-out of the possible overhead of fsnotify() call in fsnotify_open(), they would probably also want to avoid the overhead of fsnotify() call in the rest of the fsnotify hooks, so they should be opening that file with the __FMODE_NONOTIFY flag. However, in the majority of those cases, the s_fsnotify_connectors optimization in fsnotify_parent() would be sufficient to avoid the overhead of fsnotify() call anyway.

mm/gup: remove vmas parameter from get_user_pages_remote()

2023-06-09T23:25:26+00:00

The only instances of get_user_pages_remote() invocations which used the vmas parameter were for a single page which can instead simply look up the VMA directly. In particular:- - __update_ref_ctr() looked up the VMA but did nothing with it so we simply remove it. - __access_remote_vm() was already using vma_lookup() when the original lookup failed so by doing the lookup directly this also de-duplicates the code. We are able to perform these VMA operations as we already hold the mmap_lock in order to be able to call get_user_pages_remote(). As part of this work we add get_user_page_vma_remote() which abstracts the VMA lookup, error handling and decrementing the page reference count should the VMA lookup fail. This forms part of a broader set of patches intended to eliminate the vmas parameter altogether.

Merge tag 'trace-v6.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace

2023-04-28T22:57:53+00:00

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - User events are finally ready! After lots of collaboration between various parties, we finally locked down on a stable interface for user events that can also work with user space only tracing. This is implemented by telling the kernel (or user space library, but that part is user space only and not part of this patch set), where the variable is that the application uses to know if something is listening to the trace. There's also an interface to tell the kernel about these events, which will show up in the /sys/kernel/tracing/events/user_events/ directory, where it can be enabled. When it's enabled, the kernel will update the variable, to tell the application to start writing to the kernel. See https://lwn.net/Articles/927595/ - Cleaned up the direct trampolines code to simplify arm64 addition of direct trampolines. Direct trampolines use the ftrace interface but instead of jumping to the ftrace trampoline, applications (mostly BPF) can register their own trampoline for performance reasons. - Some updates to the fprobe infrastructure. fprobes are more efficient than kprobes, as it does not need to save all the registers that kprobes on ftrace do. More work needs to be done before the fprobes will be exposed as dynamic events. - More updates to references to the obsolete path of /sys/kernel/debug/tracing for the new /sys/kernel/tracing path. - Add a seq_buf_do_printk() helper to seq_bufs, to print a large buffer line by line instead of all at once. There are users in production kernels that have a large data dump that originally used printk() directly, but the data dump was larger than what printk() allowed as a single print. Using seq_buf() to do the printing fixes that. - Add /sys/kernel/tracing/touched_functions that shows all functions that was every traced by ftrace or a direct trampoline. This is used for debugging issues where a traced function could have caused a crash by a bpf program or live patching. - Add a "fields" option that is similar to "raw" but outputs the fields of the events. It's easier to read by humans. - Some minor fixes and clean ups. * tag 'trace-v6.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace: (41 commits) ring-buffer: Sync IRQ works before buffer destruction tracing: Add missing spaces in trace_print_hex_seq() ring-buffer: Ensure proper resetting of atomic variables in ring_buffer_reset_online_cpus recordmcount: Fix memory leaks in the uwrite function tracing/user_events: Limit max fault-in attempts tracing/user_events: Prevent same address and bit per process tracing/user_events: Ensure bit is cleared on unregister tracing/user_events: Ensure write index cannot be negative seq_buf: Add seq_buf_do_printk() helper tracing: Fix print_fields() for __dyn_loc/__rel_loc tracing/user_events: Set event filter_type from type ring-buffer: Clearly check null ptr returned by rb_set_head_page() tracing: Unbreak user events tracing/user_events: Use print_format_fields() for trace output tracing/user_events: Align structs with tabs for readability tracing/user_events: Limit global user_event count tracing/user_events: Charge event allocs to cgroups tracing/user_events: Update documentation for ABI tracing/user_events: Use write ABI in example tracing/user_events: Add ABI self-test ...

tracing/user_events: Track fork/exec/exit for mm lifetime

2023-03-29T10:52:08+00:00

During tracefs discussions it was decided instead of requiring a mapping within a user-process to track the lifetime of memory descriptors we should hook the appropriate calls. Do this by adding the minimal stubs required for task fork, exec, and exit. Currently this is just a NOP. Future patches will implement these calls fully.
