page_pool: Track DMA-mapped pages and unmap them when destroying the pool

2025-06-19T13:31:42+00:00

[ Upstream commit ee62ce7a1d909ccba0399680a03c2dee83bcae95 ] When enabling DMA mapping in page_pool, pages are kept DMA mapped until they are released from the pool, to avoid the overhead of re-mapping the pages every time they are used. This causes resource leaks and/or crashes when there are pages still outstanding while the device is torn down, because page_pool will attempt an unmap through a non-existent DMA device on the subsequent page return. To fix this, implement a simple tracking of outstanding DMA-mapped pages in page pool using an xarray. This was first suggested by Mina[0], and turns out to be fairly straight forward: We simply store pointers to pages directly in the xarray with xa_alloc() when they are first DMA mapped, and remove them from the array on unmap. Then, when a page pool is torn down, it can simply walk the xarray and unmap all pages still present there before returning, which also allows us to get rid of the get/put_device() calls in page_pool. Using xa_cmpxchg(), no additional synchronisation is needed, as a page will only ever be unmapped once. To avoid having to walk the entire xarray on unmap to find the page reference, we stash the ID assigned by xa_alloc() into the page structure itself, using the upper bits of the pp_magic field. This requires a couple of defines to avoid conflicting with the POINTER_POISON_DELTA define, but this is all evaluated at compile-time, so does not affect run-time performance. The bitmap calculations in this patch gives the following number of bits for different architectures: - 23 bits on 32-bit architectures - 21 bits on PPC64 (because of the definition of ILLEGAL_POINTER_VALUE) - 32 bits on other 64-bit architectures Stashing a value into the unused bits of pp_magic does have the effect that it can make the value stored there lie outside the unmappable range (as governed by the mmap_min_addr sysctl), for architectures that don't define ILLEGAL_POINTER_VALUE. This means that if one of the pointers that is aliased to the pp_magic field (such as page->lru.next) is dereferenced while the page is owned by page_pool, that could lead to a dereference into userspace, which is a security concern. The risk of this is mitigated by the fact that (a) we always clear pp_magic before releasing a page from page_pool, and (b) this would need a use-after-free bug for struct page, which can have many other risks since page->lru.next is used as a generic list pointer in multiple places in the kernel. As such, with this patch we take the position that this risk is negligible in practice. For more discussion, see[1]. Since all the tracking added in this patch is performed on DMA map/unmap, no additional code is needed in the fast path, meaning the performance overhead of this tracking is negligible there. A micro-benchmark shows that the total overhead of the tracking itself is about 400 ns (39 cycles(tsc) 395.218 ns; sum for both map and unmap[2]). Since this cost is only paid on DMA map and unmap, it seems like an acceptable cost to fix the late unmap issue. Further optimisation can narrow the cases where this cost is paid (for instance by eliding the tracking when DMA map/unmap is a no-op). The extra memory needed to track the pages is neatly encapsulated inside xarray, which uses the 'struct xa_node' structure to track items. This structure is 576 bytes long, with slots for 64 items, meaning that a full node occurs only 9 bytes of overhead per slot it tracks (in practice, it probably won't be this efficient, but in any case it should be an acceptable overhead).

stackdepot: use variable size records for non-evictable entries

2024-02-24T01:27:12+00:00

With the introduction of stack depot evictions, each stack record is now fixed size, so that future reuse after an eviction can safely store differently sized stack traces. In all cases that do not make use of evictions, this wastes lots of space. Fix it by re-introducing variable size stack records (up to the max allowed size) for entries that will never be evicted. We know if an entry will never be evicted if the flag STACK_DEPOT_FLAG_GET is not provided, since a later stack_depot_put() attempt is undefined behavior. With my current kernel config that enables KASAN and also SLUB owner tracking, I observe (after a kernel boot) a whopping reduction of 296 stack depot pools, which translates into 4736 KiB saved. The savings here are from SLUB owner tracking only, because KASAN generic mode still uses refcounting.

net: page_pool: record pools per netdev

2023-11-28T14:48:39+00:00

Link the page pools with netdevs. This needs to be netns compatible so we have two options. Either we record the pools per netns and have to worry about moving them as the netdev gets moved. Or we record them directly on the netdev so they move with the netdev without any extra work. Implement the latter option. Since pools may outlast netdev we need a place to store orphans. In time honored tradition use loopback for this purpose. Reviewed-by: Mina Almasry Reviewed-by: Eric Dumazet Acked-by: Jesper Dangaard Brouer Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni

fs: Use CHECK_DATA_CORRUPTION() when kernel bugs are detected

2023-01-27T13:17:22+00:00

Currently, filp_close() and generic_shutdown_super() use printk() to log messages when bugs are detected. This is problematic because infrastructure like syzkaller has no idea that this message indicates a bug. In addition, some people explicitly want their kernels to BUG() when kernel data corruption has been detected (CONFIG_BUG_ON_DATA_CORRUPTION). And finally, when generic_shutdown_super() detects remaining inodes on a system without CONFIG_BUG_ON_DATA_CORRUPTION, it would be nice if later accesses to a busy inode would at least crash somewhat cleanly rather than walking through freed memory. To address all three, use CHECK_DATA_CORRUPTION() when kernel bugs are detected.

bpf: Add verifier check for BPF_PTR_POISON retval and arg

2022-09-15T09:44:07+00:00

BPF_PTR_POISON was added in commit c0a5a21c25f37 ("bpf: Allow storing referenced kptr in map") to denote a bpf_func_proto btf_id which the verifier will replace with a dynamically-determined btf_id at verification time. This patch adds verifier 'poison' functionality to BPF_PTR_POISON in order to prepare for expanded use of the value to poison ret- and arg-btf_id in ongoing work, namely rbtree and linked list patchsets [0, 1]. Specifically, when the verifier checks helper calls, it assumes that BPF_PTR_POISON'ed ret type will be replaced with a valid type before - or in lieu of - the default ret_btf_id logic. Similarly for arg btf_id. If poisoned btf_id reaches default handling block for either, consider this a verifier internal error and fail verification. Otherwise a helper w/ poisoned btf_id but no verifier logic replacing the type will cause a crash as the invalid pointer is dereferenced. Also move BPF_PTR_POISON to existing include/linux/posion.h header and remove unnecessary shift.
