mm/mempool: fix poisoning order>0 pages with HIGHMEM

We could give up on HIGHMEM here, but it's straightforward to fix this with a loop that's mapping, poisoning or checking and unmapping individual pages.

mm: fix xyz_noprof functions calling profiled functions

2024-06-06T02:19:26+00:00

Grepping /proc/allocinfo for "noprof" reveals several xyz_noprof functions, which means internally they are calling profiled functions. This should never happen as such calls move allocation charge from a higher level location where it should be accounted for into these lower level helpers. Fix this by replacing profiled function calls with noprof ones.

mempool: hook up to memory allocation profiling

2024-04-26T03:55:56+00:00

This adds hooks to mempools for correctly annotating mempool-backed allocations at the correct source line, so they show up correctly in /sys/kernel/debug/allocations. Various inline functions are converted to wrappers so that we can invoke alloc_hooks() in fewer places.

mempool: kvmalloc pool

2024-03-13T22:38:13+00:00

Add mempool_init_kvmalloc_pool() and mempool_create_kvmalloc_pool(), which wrap kvmalloc() instead of kmalloc() - kmalloc() with a vmalloc() fallback. This is part of a bcachefs cleanup - dropping an internal kvpmalloc() helper (which predates kvmalloc()) along with mempool helpers; this replaces the bcachefs-private kvpmalloc_pool.

mempool: introduce mempool_use_prealloc_only

2023-12-29T19:58:39+00:00

Introduce a new mempool_alloc_preallocated API that asks the mempool to only use the elements preallocated during the mempool's creation when allocating and to not attempt allocating new ones from the underlying allocator. This API is required to test the KASAN poisoning/unpoisoning functionality in KASAN tests, but it might be also useful on its own.

mempool: skip slub_debug poisoning when KASAN is enabled

2023-12-29T19:58:39+00:00

With the changes in the following patch, KASAN starts saving its metadata within freed mempool elements. Thus, skip slub_debug poisoning and checking of mempool elements when KASAN is enabled. Corruptions of freed mempool elements will be detected by KASAN anyway.

kasan: rename kasan_slab_free_mempool to kasan_mempool_poison_object

2023-12-29T19:58:36+00:00

Patch series "kasan: save mempool stack traces". This series updates KASAN to save alloc and free stack traces for secondary-level allocators that cache and reuse allocations internally instead of giving them back to the underlying allocator (e.g. mempool). As a part of this change, introduce and document a set of KASAN hooks: bool kasan_mempool_poison_pages(struct page *page, unsigned int order); void kasan_mempool_unpoison_pages(struct page *page, unsigned int order); bool kasan_mempool_poison_object(void *ptr); void kasan_mempool_unpoison_object(void *ptr, size_t size); and use them in the mempool code. Besides mempool, skbuff and io_uring also cache allocations and already use KASAN hooks to poison those. Their code is updated to use the new mempool hooks. The new hooks save alloc and free stack traces (for normal kmalloc and slab objects; stack traces for large kmalloc objects and page_alloc are not supported by KASAN yet), improve the readability of the users' code, and also allow the users to prevent double-free and invalid-free bugs; see the patches for the details. This patch (of 21): Rename kasan_slab_free_mempool to kasan_mempool_poison_object. kasan_slab_free_mempool is a slightly confusing name: it is unclear whether this function poisons the object when it is freed into mempool or does something when the object is freed from mempool to the underlying allocator. The new name also aligns with other mempool-related KASAN hooks added in the following patches in this series.

mm/mempool: replace kmap_atomic() with kmap_local_page()

2023-12-11T00:51:49+00:00

kmap_atomic() has been deprecated in favor of kmap_local_page(). Therefore, replace kmap_atomic() with kmap_local_page(). kmap_atomic() is implemented like a kmap_local_page() which also disables page-faults and preemption (the latter only in !PREEMPT_RT kernels). The kernel virtual addresses returned by these two API are only valid in the context of the callers (i.e., they cannot be handed to other threads). With kmap_local_page() the mappings are per thread and CPU local like in kmap_atomic(); however, they can handle page-faults and can be called from any context (including interrupts). The tasks that call kmap_local_page() can be preempted and, when they are scheduled to run again, the kernel virtual addresses are restored and are still valid. The code blocks between the mappings and un-mappings don't rely on the above-mentioned side effects of kmap_atomic(), so that mere replacements of the old API with the new one is all that they require (i.e., there is no need to explicitly call pagefault_disable() and/or preempt_disable()).
