mm: krealloc: Fix MTE false alarm in __do_krealloc

2024-11-17T14:07:22+00:00

commit 704573851b51808b45dae2d62059d1d8189138a2 upstream. This patch addresses an issue introduced by commit 1a83a716ec233 ("mm: krealloc: consider spare memory for __GFP_ZERO") which causes MTE (Memory Tagging Extension) to falsely report a slab-out-of-bounds error. The problem occurs when zeroing out spare memory in __do_krealloc. The original code only considered software-based KASAN and did not account for MTE. It does not reset the KASAN tag before calling memset, leading to a mismatch between the pointer tag and the memory tag, resulting in a false positive. Example of the error: ================================================================== swapper/0: BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in __memset+0x84/0x188 swapper/0: Write at addr f4ffff8005f0fdf0 by task swapper/0/1 swapper/0: Pointer tag: [f4], memory tag: [fe] swapper/0: swapper/0: CPU: 4 UID: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 6.12. swapper/0: Hardware name: MT6991(ENG) (DT) swapper/0: Call trace: swapper/0: dump_backtrace+0xfc/0x17c swapper/0: show_stack+0x18/0x28 swapper/0: dump_stack_lvl+0x40/0xa0 swapper/0: print_report+0x1b8/0x71c swapper/0: kasan_report+0xec/0x14c swapper/0: __do_kernel_fault+0x60/0x29c swapper/0: do_bad_area+0x30/0xdc swapper/0: do_tag_check_fault+0x20/0x34 swapper/0: do_mem_abort+0x58/0x104 swapper/0: el1_abort+0x3c/0x5c swapper/0: el1h_64_sync_handler+0x80/0xcc swapper/0: el1h_64_sync+0x68/0x6c swapper/0: __memset+0x84/0x188 swapper/0: btf_populate_kfunc_set+0x280/0x3d8 swapper/0: __register_btf_kfunc_id_set+0x43c/0x468 swapper/0: register_btf_kfunc_id_set+0x48/0x60 swapper/0: register_nf_nat_bpf+0x1c/0x40 swapper/0: nf_nat_init+0xc0/0x128 swapper/0: do_one_initcall+0x184/0x464 swapper/0: do_initcall_level+0xdc/0x1b0 swapper/0: do_initcalls+0x70/0xc0 swapper/0: do_basic_setup+0x1c/0x28 swapper/0: kernel_init_freeable+0x144/0x1b8 swapper/0: kernel_init+0x20/0x1a8 swapper/0: ret_from_fork+0x10/0x20 ================================================================== Fixes: 1a83a716ec233 ("mm: krealloc: consider spare memory for __GFP_ZERO") Signed-off-by: Qun-Wei Lin Acked-by: David Rientjes Signed-off-by: Vlastimil Babka Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

mm: krealloc: consider spare memory for __GFP_ZERO

2024-10-17T13:21:56+00:00

commit 1a83a716ec233990e1fd5b6fbb1200ade63bf450 upstream. As long as krealloc() is called with __GFP_ZERO consistently, starting with the initial memory allocation, __GFP_ZERO should be fully honored. However, if for an existing allocation krealloc() is called with a decreased size, it is not ensured that the spare portion the allocation is zeroed. Thus, if krealloc() is subsequently called with a larger size again, __GFP_ZERO can't be fully honored, since we don't know the previous size, but only the bucket size. Example: buf = kzalloc(64, GFP_KERNEL); memset(buf, 0xff, 64); buf = krealloc(buf, 48, GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_ZERO); /* After this call the last 16 bytes are still 0xff. */ buf = krealloc(buf, 64, GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_ZERO); Fix this, by explicitly setting spare memory to zero, when shrinking an allocation with __GFP_ZERO flag set or init_on_alloc enabled.

mm: Remove kmem_valid_obj()

2024-08-29T15:30:28+00:00

commit 6e284c55fc0bef7d25fd34d29db11f483da60ea4 upstream. Function kmem_dump_obj() will splat if passed a pointer to a non-slab object. So nothing calls it directly, instead calling kmem_valid_obj() first to determine whether the passed pointer to a valid slab object. This means that merging kmem_valid_obj() into kmem_dump_obj() will make the code more concise. Therefore, convert kmem_dump_obj() to work the same way as vmalloc_dump_obj(), removing the need for the kmem_dump_obj() caller to check kmem_valid_obj(). After this, there are no remaining calls to kmem_valid_obj() anymore, and it can be safely removed.

mm/slab_common: fix slab_caches list corruption after kmem_cache_destroy()

2023-10-06T12:57:03+00:00

commit 46a9ea6681907a3be6b6b0d43776dccc62cad6cf upstream. After the commit in Fixes:, if a module that created a slab cache does not release all of its allocated objects before destroying the cache (at rmmod time), we might end up releasing the kmem_cache object without removing it from the slab_caches list thus corrupting the list as kmem_cache_destroy() ignores the return value from shutdown_cache(), which in turn never removes the kmem_cache object from slabs_list in case __kmem_cache_shutdown() fails to release all of the cache's slabs. This is easily observable on a kernel built with CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST=y as after that ill release the system will immediately trip on list_add, or list_del, assertions similar to the one shown below as soon as another kmem_cache gets created, or destroyed: [ 1041.213632] list_del corruption. next->prev should be ffff89f596fb5768, but was 52f1e5016aeee75d.

mm, slab: remove duplicate kernel-doc comment for ksize()

Akira reports: > "make htmldocs" reports duplicate C declaration of ksize() as follows: > /linux/Documentation/core-api/mm-api:43: ./mm/slab_common.c:1428: WARNING: Duplicate C declaration, also defined at core-api/mm-api:212. > Declaration is '.. c:function:: size_t ksize (const void *objp)'. > This is due to the kernel-doc comment for ksize() declaration added in > include/linux/slab.h by commit 05a940656e1e ("slab: Introduce > kmalloc_size_roundup()"). There is an older kernel-doc comment for ksize() definition in mm/slab_common.c, which is not only duplicated, but also contradicts the new one - the additional storage discovered by ksize() should not be used by callers anymore.

mm/slab: remove !CONFIG_TRACING variants of kmalloc_[node_]trace()

2022-11-04T13:57:21+00:00

For !CONFIG_TRACING kernels, the kmalloc() implementation tries (in cases where the allocation size is build-time constant) to save a function call, by inlining kmalloc_trace() to a kmem_cache_alloc() call. However since commit 6edf2576a6cc ("mm/slub: enable debugging memory wasting of kmalloc") this path now fails to pass the original request size to be eventually recorded (for kmalloc caches with debugging enabled). We could adjust the code to call __kmem_cache_alloc_node() as the CONFIG_TRACING variant, but that would as a result inline a call with 5 parameters, bloating the kmalloc() call sites. The cost of extra function call (to kmalloc_trace()) seems like a lesser evil. It also appears that the !CONFIG_TRACING variant is incompatible with upcoming hardening efforts [1] so it's easier if we just remove it now. Kernels with no tracing are rare these days and the benefit is dubious anyway.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton: - Yu Zhao's Multi-Gen LRU patches are here. They've been under test in linux-next for a couple of months without, to my knowledge, any negative reports (or any positive ones, come to that). - Also the Maple Tree from Liam Howlett. An overlapping range-based tree for vmas. It it apparently slightly more efficient in its own right, but is mainly targeted at enabling work to reduce mmap_lock contention. Liam has identified a number of other tree users in the kernel which could be beneficially onverted to mapletrees. Yu Zhao has identified a hard-to-hit but "easy to fix" lockdep splat at [1]. This has yet to be addressed due to Liam's unfortunately timed vacation. He is now back and we'll get this fixed up. - Dmitry Vyukov introduces KMSAN: the Kernel Memory Sanitizer. It uses clang-generated instrumentation to detect used-unintialized bugs down to the single bit level. KMSAN keeps finding bugs. New ones, as well as the legacy ones. - Yang Shi adds a userspace mechanism (madvise) to induce a collapse of memory into THPs. - Zach O'Keefe has expanded Yang Shi's madvise(MADV_COLLAPSE) to support file/shmem-backed pages. - userfaultfd updates from Axel Rasmussen - zsmalloc cleanups from Alexey Romanov - cleanups from Miaohe Lin: vmscan, hugetlb_cgroup, hugetlb and memory-failure - Huang Ying adds enhancements to NUMA balancing memory tiering mode's page promotion, with a new way of detecting hot pages. - memcg updates from Shakeel Butt: charging optimizations and reduced memory consumption. - memcg cleanups from Kairui Song. - memcg fixes and cleanups from Johannes Weiner. - Vishal Moola provides more folio conversions - Zhang Yi removed ll_rw_block() :( - migration enhancements from Peter Xu - migration error-path bugfixes from Huang Ying - Aneesh Kumar added ability for a device driver to alter the memory tiering promotion paths. For optimizations by PMEM drivers, DRM drivers, etc. - vma merging improvements from Jakub Matěn. - NUMA hinting cleanups from David Hildenbrand. - xu xin added aditional userspace visibility into KSM merging activity. - THP & KSM code consolidation from Qi Zheng. - more folio work from Matthew Wilcox. - KASAN updates from Andrey Konovalov. - DAMON cleanups from Kaixu Xia. - DAMON work from SeongJae Park: fixes, cleanups. - hugetlb sysfs cleanups from Muchun Song. - Mike Kravetz fixes locking issues in hugetlbfs and in hugetlb core.
