My series [1] to fix validation races for caches with enabled debugging.
By decoupling the debug cache operation more from non-debug fastpaths,
additional locking simplifications were possible and done afterwards.
Additional cleanup of PREEMPT_RT specific code on top, by Thomas Gleixner.

The "common kmalloc v4" series [1] by Hyeonggon Yoo.
- Improves the mm/slab_common.c wrappers to allow deleting duplicated
code between SLAB and SLUB.
- Large kmalloc() allocations in SLAB are passed to page allocator like
in SLUB, reducing number of kmalloc caches.
- Removes the {kmem_cache_alloc,kmalloc}_node variants of tracepoints,
node id parameter added to non-_node variants.

Commit 5a836bf6b09f ("mm: slub: move flush_cpu_slab() invocations
__free_slab() invocations out of IRQ context") moved all flush_cpu_slab()
invocations to the global workqueue to avoid a problem related
with deactivate_slab()/__free_slab() being called from an IRQ context
on PREEMPT_RT kernels.
When the flush_all_cpu_locked() function is called from a task context
it may happen that a workqueue with WQ_MEM_RECLAIM bit set ends up
flushing the global workqueue, this will cause a dependency issue.

The PREEMPT_RT specific disabling of irqs in __cmpxchg_double_slab()
(through slab_[un]lock()) is unnecessary as bit_spin_lock() disables
preemption and that's sufficient on PREEMPT_RT where no allocation/free
operation is performed in hardirq context and so can't interrupt the
current operation.
That means we no longer need the slab_[un]lock() wrappers, so delete
them and rename the current __slab_[un]lock() to slab_[un]lock().

The only remaining user of object_map_lock is list_slab_objects().
Obtaining the lock there used to happen under slab_lock() which implied
disabling irqs on PREEMPT_RT, thus it's a raw_spinlock. With the
slab_lock() removed, we can convert it to a normal spinlock.
Also remove the get_map()/put_map() wrappers as list_slab_objects()
became their only remaining user.

All alloc and free operations on debug caches are now serialized by
n->list_lock, so we can remove slab_lock() usage in validate_slab()
and list_slab_objects() as those also happen under n->list_lock.
Note the usage in list_slab_objects() could happen even on non-debug
caches, but only during cache shutdown time, so there should not be any
parallel freeing activity anymore. Except for buggy slab users, but in
that case the slab_lock() would not help against the common cmpxchg
based fast paths (in non-debug caches) anyway.
Also adjust documentation comments accordingly.

Rongwei Wang reports [1] that cache validation triggered by writing to
/sys/kernel/slab/<cache>/validate is racy against normal cache
operations (e.g. freeing) in a way that can cause false positive
inconsistency reports for caches with debugging enabled. The problem is
that debugging actions that mark object free or active and actual
freelist operations are not atomic, and the validation can see an
inconsistent state.
For caches that do or don't have debugging enabled, additional races
involving n->nr_slabs are possible that result in false reports of wrong
slab counts.
This patch attempts to solve these issues while not adding overhead to
normal (especially fastpath) operations for caches that do not have
debugging enabled. Such overhead would not be justified to make possible
userspace-triggered validation safe. Instead, disable the validation for
caches that don't have debugging enabled and make their sysfs validate
handler return -EINVAL.
For caches that do have debugging enabled, we can instead extend the
existing approach of not using percpu freelists to force all alloc/free
operations to the slow paths where debugging flags is checked and acted
upon. There can adjust the debug-specific paths to increase n->list_lock
coverage against concurrent validation as necessary.
The processing on free in free_debug_processing() already happens under
n->list_lock so we can extend it to actually do the freeing as well and
thus make it atomic against concurrent validation. As observed by
Hyeonggon Yoo, we do not really need to take slab_lock() anymore here
because all paths we could race with are protected by n->list_lock under
the new scheme, so drop its usage here.
The processing on alloc in alloc_debug_processing() currently doesn't
take any locks, but we have to first allocate the object from a slab on
the partial list (as debugging caches have no percpu slabs) and thus
take the n->list_lock anyway. Add a function alloc_single_from_partial()
that grabs just the allocated object instead of the whole freelist, and
does the debug processing. The n->list_lock coverage again makes it
atomic against validation and it is also ultimately more efficient than
the current grabbing of freelist immediately followed by slab
deactivation.
To prevent races on n->nr_slabs updates, make sure that for caches with
debugging enabled, inc_slabs_node() or dec_slabs_node() is called under
n->list_lock. When allocating a new slab for a debug cache, handle the
allocation by a new function alloc_single_from_new_slab() instead of the
current forced deactivation path.
Neither of these changes affect the fast paths at all. The changes in
slow paths are negligible for non-debug caches.

By default kfence allocation can happen for any slab object, whose size is
up to PAGE_SIZE, as long as that allocation is the first allocation after
expiration of kfence sample interval. But in certain debugging scenarios
we may be interested in debugging corruptions involving some specific slub
objects like dentry or ext4_* etc. In such cases limiting kfence for
allocations involving only specific slub objects will increase the
probablity of catching the issue since kfence pool will not be consumed by
other slab objects.
This patch introduces a sysfs interface
'/sys/kernel/slab/<name>/skip_kfence' to disable kfence for specific
slabs. Having the interface work in this way does not impact
current/default behavior of kfence and allows us to use kfence for
specific slabs (when needed) as well. The decision to skip/use kfence is
taken depending on whether kmem_cache.flags has (newly introduced)
SLAB_SKIP_KFENCE flag set or not.

Drop kmem_alloc event class, and define kmalloc and kmem_cache_alloc
using TRACE_EVENT() macro.
And then this patch does:
- Do not pass pointer to struct kmem_cache to trace_kmalloc.
gfp flag is enough to know if it's accounted or not.
- Avoid dereferencing s->object_size and s->size when not using kmem_cache_alloc event.
- Avoid dereferencing s->name in when not using kmem_cache_free event.
- Adjust s->size to SLOB_UNITS(s->size) * SLOB_UNIT in SLOB

Move its implementation to slab_common.c by using

Most callers of memcg_slab_free_hook() already know the slab, which could
be passed to memcg_slab_free_hook() directly to reduce the overhead of an
another call of virt_to_slab(). For bulk freeing of objects, the call of
slab_objcgs() in the loop in memcg_slab_free_hook() is redundant as well.
Rework memcg_slab_free_hook() and build_detached_freelist() to reduce
those unnecessary overhead and make memcg_slab_free_hook() can handle bulk
freeing in slab_free().
Move the calling site of memcg_slab_free_hook() from do_slab_free() to
slab_free() for slub to make the code clearer since the logic is weird
(e.g. the caller need to judge whether it needs to call
memcg_slab_free_hook()). It is easy to make mistakes like missing calling
of memcg_slab_free_hook() like fixes of:
commit d1b2cf6cb84a ("mm: memcg/slab: uncharge during kmem_cache_free_bulk()")
commit ae085d7f9365 ("mm: kfence: fix missing objcg housekeeping for SLAB")
This optimization is mainly for bulk objects freeing. The following numbers
is shown for 16-object freeing.
before after
kmem_cache_free_bulk: ~430 ns ~400 ns
The overhead is reduced by about 7% for 16-object freeing.

The fastpath in slab_alloc_node() assumes that c->slab is stable as long as
the TID stays the same. However, two places in __slab_alloc() currently
don't update the TID when deactivating the CPU slab.
If multiple operations race the right way, this could lead to an object
getting lost; or, in an even more unlikely situation, it could even lead to
an object being freed onto the wrong slab's freelist, messing up the
`inuse` counter and eventually causing a page to be freed to the page
allocator while it still contains slab objects.
(I haven't actually tested these cases though, this is just based on
looking at the code. Writing testcases for this stuff seems like it'd be
a pain...)
The race leading to state inconsistency is (all operations on the same CPU
and kmem_cache):
- task A: begin do_slab_free():
- read TID
- read pcpu freelist (==NULL)
- check `slab == c->slab` (true)
- [PREEMPT A->B]
- task B: begin slab_alloc_node():
- fastpath fails (`c->freelist` is NULL)
- enter __slab_alloc()
- slub_get_cpu_ptr() (disables preemption)
- enter ___slab_alloc()
- take local_lock_irqsave()
- read c->freelist as NULL
- get_freelist() returns NULL
- write `c->slab = NULL`
- drop local_unlock_irqrestore()
- goto new_slab
- slub_percpu_partial() is NULL
- get_partial() returns NULL
- slub_put_cpu_ptr() (enables preemption)
- [PREEMPT B->A]
- task A: finish do_slab_free():
- this_cpu_cmpxchg_double() succeeds()
- [CORRUPT STATE: c->slab==NULL, c->freelist!=NULL]
From there, the object on c->freelist will get lost if task B is allowed to
continue from here: It will proceed to the retry_load_slab label,
set c->slab, then jump to load_freelist, which clobbers c->freelist.
But if we instead continue as follows, we get worse corruption:
- task A: run __slab_free() on object from other struct slab:
- CPU_PARTIAL_FREE case (slab was on no list, is now on pcpu partial)
- task A: run slab_alloc_node() with NUMA node constraint:
- fastpath fails (c->slab is NULL)
- call __slab_alloc()
- slub_get_cpu_ptr() (disables preemption)
- enter ___slab_alloc()
- c->slab is NULL: goto new_slab
- slub_percpu_partial() is non-NULL
- set c->slab to slub_percpu_partial(c)
- [CORRUPT STATE: c->slab points to slab-1, c->freelist has objects
from slab-2]
- goto redo
- node_match() fails
- goto deactivate_slab
- existing c->freelist is passed into deactivate_slab()
- inuse count of slab-1 is decremented to account for object from
slab-2
At this point, the inuse count of slab-1 is 1 lower than it should be.
This means that if we free all allocated objects in slab-1 except for one,
SLUB will think that slab-1 is completely unused, and may free its page,
leading to use-after-free.

The set_track() invocation in free_debug_processing() is invoked with
acquired slab_lock(). The lock disables interrupts on PREEMPT_RT and
this forbids to allocate memory which is done in stack_depot_save().
Split set_track() into two parts: set_track_prepare() which allocate
memory and set_track_update() which only performs the assignment of the
trace data structure. Use set_track_prepare() before disabling
interrupts.

Pull slab updates from Vlastimil Babka:
- Conversion of slub_debug stack traces to stackdepot, allowing more
useful debugfs-based inspection for e.g. memory leak debugging.
Allocation and free debugfs info now includes full traces and is
sorted by the unique trace frequency.
The stackdepot conversion was already attempted last year but
reverted by ae14c63a9f20. The memory overhead (while not actually
enabled on boot) has been meanwhile solved by making the large
stackdepot allocation dynamic. The xfstest issues haven't been
reproduced on current kernel locally nor in -next, so the slab cache
layout changes that originally made that bug manifest were probably
not the root cause.
- Refactoring of dma-kmalloc caches creation.
- Trivial cleanups such as removal of unused parameters, fixes and
clarifications of comments.
- Hyeonggon Yoo joins as a reviewer.

Calling kmem_obj_info() via kmem_dump_obj() on KFENCE objects has been
producing garbage data due to the object not actually being maintained
by SLAB or SLUB.
Fix this by implementing __kfence_obj_info() that copies relevant
information to struct kmem_obj_info when the object was allocated by
KFENCE; this is called by a common kmem_obj_info(), which also calls the
slab/slub/slob specific variant now called __kmem_obj_info().
For completeness, kmem_dump_obj() now displays if the object was
allocated by KFENCE.

setup_object_debug() and setup_object() has unused parameter, "struct
slab *slab". Remove it.
By the commit 3ec0974210fe ("SLUB: Simplify debug code"),
setup_object_debug() were introduced to refactor previous code blocks
in the setup_object(). Previous code used SlabDebug() to init_object()
and init_tracking(). As the SlabDebug() takes "struct page *page" as
argument, the setup_object_debug() checks flag of "struct kmem_cache *s"
which doesn't require "struct page *page".
As the struct page were changed into struct slab by commit bb192ed9aa719
("mm/slub: Convert most struct page to struct slab by spatch"), but it's
still unused parameter.

Many stack traces are similar so there are many similar arrays.
Stackdepot saves each unique stack only once.
Replace field addrs in struct track with depot_stack_handle_t handle. Use
stackdepot to save stack trace.
The benefits are smaller memory overhead and possibility to aggregate
per-cache statistics in the following patch using the stackdepot handle
instead of matching stacks manually.
[ vbabka@suse.cz: rebase to 5.17-rc1 and adjust accordingly ]
This was initially merged as commit 788691464c29 and reverted by commit
ae14c63a9f20 due to several issues, that should now be fixed.
The problem of unconditional memory overhead by stackdepot has been
addressed by commit 2dba5eb1c73b ("lib/stackdepot: allow optional init
and stack_table allocation by kvmalloc()"), so the dependency on
stackdepot will result in extra memory usage only when a slab cache
tracking is actually enabled, and not for all CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG builds.
The build failures on some architectures were also addressed, and the
reported issue with xfs/433 test did not reproduce on 5.17-rc1 with this
patch.

set_track() either zeroes out the struct track or fills it, depending on
the addr parameter. This is unnecessary as there's only one place that
calls it for the initialization - init_tracking(). We can simply do the
zeroing there, with a single memset() that covers both TRACK_ALLOC and
TRACK_FREE as they are adjacent.

slub_kunit does not expect other debugging flags to be set when running
tests. When SLAB_RED_ZONE flag is set globally, test fails because the
flag affects number of errors reported.
To make slub_kunit unaffected by user specified debugging flags,
introduce SLAB_NO_USER_FLAGS to ignore them. With this flag, only flags
specified in the code are used and others are ignored.

We currently allocate scope for every memcg to be able to tracked on
every superblock instantiated in the system, regardless of whether that
superblock is even accessible to that memcg.
These huge memcg counts come from container hosts where memcgs are
confined to just a small subset of the total number of superblocks that
instantiated at any given point in time.
For these systems with huge container counts, list_lru does not need the
capability of tracking every memcg on every superblock. What it comes
down to is that adding the memcg to the list_lru at the first insert.
So introduce kmem_cache_alloc_lru to allocate objects and its list_lru.
In the later patch, we will convert all inode and dentry allocation from
kmem_cache_alloc to kmem_cache_alloc_lru.
