This is a regression caused by converting this code from an open coded no fail/no warn reallocation loop to using __GFP_NOFAIL. What we actually need here is kvrealloc(), so that if contiguous page allocation fails we fall back to vmalloc() and we don't get nasty warnings happening in XFS.

2022-05-30random: move randomize_page() into mm where it belongsJason A. Donenfeld1-0/+32
commit 5ad7dd882e45d7fe432c32e896e2aaa0b21746ea upstream. randomize_page is an mm function. It is documented like one. It contains the history of one. It has the naming convention of one. It looks just like another very similar function in mm, randomize_stack_top(). And it has always been maintained and updated by mm people. There is no need for it to be in random.c. In the "which shape does not look like the other ones" test, pointing to randomize_page() is correct. So move randomize_page() into mm/util.c, right next to the similar randomize_stack_top() function. This commit contains no actual code changes.

2022-03-08mm: Consider __GFP_NOWARN flag for oversized kvmalloc() callsDaniel Borkmann1-1/+3
commit 0708a0afe291bdfe1386d74d5ec1f0c27e8b9168 upstream. syzkaller was recently triggering an oversized kvmalloc() warning via xdp_umem_create(). The triggered warning was added back in 7661809d493b ("mm: don't allow oversized kvmalloc() calls"). The rationale for the warning for huge kvmalloc sizes was as a reaction to a security bug where the size was more than UINT_MAX but not everything was prepared to handle unsigned long sizes. Anyway, the AF_XDP related call trace from this syzkaller report was: kvmalloc include/linux/mm.h:806 [inline] kvmalloc_array include/linux/mm.h:824 [inline] kvcalloc include/linux/mm.h:829 [inline] xdp_umem_pin_pages net/xdp/xdp_umem.c:102 [inline] xdp_umem_reg net/xdp/xdp_umem.c:219 [inline] xdp_umem_create+0x6a5/0xf00 net/xdp/xdp_umem.c:252 xsk_setsockopt+0x604/0x790 net/xdp/xsk.c:1068 __sys_setsockopt+0x1fd/0x4e0 net/socket.c:2176 __do_sys_setsockopt net/socket.c:2187 [inline] __se_sys_setsockopt net/socket.c:2184 [inline] __x64_sys_setsockopt+0xb5/0x150 net/socket.c:2184 do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/common.c:50 [inline] do_syscall_64+0x35/0xb0 arch/x86/entry/common.c:80 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xae Björn mentioned that requests for >2GB allocation can still be valid: The structure that is being allocated is the page-pinning accounting. AF_XDP has an internal limit of U32_MAX pages, which is *a lot*, but still fewer than what memcg allows (PAGE_COUNTER_MAX is a LONG_MAX/ PAGE_SIZE on 64 bit systems). [...] I could just change from U32_MAX to INT_MAX, but as I stated earlier that has a hacky feeling to it. [...] From my perspective, the code isn't broken, with the memcg limits in consideration. [...] Linus says: [...] Pretty much every time this has come up, the kernel warning has shown that yes, the code was broken and there really wasn't a reason for doing allocations that big. Of course, some people would be perfectly fine with the allocation failing, they just don't want the warning. I didn't want __GFP_NOWARN to shut it up originally because I wanted people to see all those cases, but these days I think we can just say "yeah, people can shut it up explicitly by saying 'go ahead and fail this allocation, don't warn about it'". So enough time has passed that by now I'd certainly be ok with [it]. Thus allow call-sites to silence such userspace triggered splats if the allocation requests have __GFP_NOWARN. For xdp_umem_pin_pages()'s call to kvcalloc() this is already the case, so nothing else needed there.

2021-10-06mm: don't allow oversized kvmalloc() callsLinus Torvalds1-0/+4
commit 7661809d493b426e979f39ab512e3adf41fbcc69 upstream. 'kvmalloc()' is a convenience function for people who want to do a kmalloc() but fall back on vmalloc() if there aren't enough physically contiguous pages, or if the allocation is larger than what kmalloc() supports. However, let's make sure it doesn't get _too_ easy to do crazy things with it. In particular, don't allow big allocations that could be due to integer overflow or underflow. So make sure the allocation size fits in an 'int', to protect against trivial integer conversion issues.

commit bcbda81020c3ee77e2c098cadf3e84f99ca3de17 upstream.

Make the generic memcmp_pages() a __weak function and add an arm64-specific implementation which returns non-zero if any of the two pages contain valid MTE tags (PG_mte_tagged set). There isn't much benefit in comparing the tags of two pages since these are normally used for heap allocations and likely to differ anyway.

2020-08-07mm: remove unnecessary wrapper function do_mmap_pgoff()Peter Collingbourne1-2/+2
The current split between do_mmap() and do_mmap_pgoff() was introduced in commit 1fcfd8db7f82 ("mm, mpx: add "vm_flags_t vm_flags" arg to do_mmap_pgoff()") to support MPX. The wrapper function do_mmap_pgoff() always passed 0 as the value of the vm_flags argument to do_mmap(). However, MPX support has subsequently been removed from the kernel and there were no more direct callers of do_mmap(); all calls were going via do_mmap_pgoff(). Simplify the code by removing do_mmap_pgoff() and changing all callers to directly call do_mmap(), which now no longer takes a vm_flags argument.

2020-08-07mm: adjust vm_committed_as_batch according to vm overcommit policyFeng Tang1-0/+41
When checking a performance change for will-it-scale scalability mmap test [1], we found very high lock contention for spinlock of percpu counter 'vm_committed_as': 94.14% 0.35% [kernel.kallsyms] [k] _raw_spin_lock_irqsave 48.21% _raw_spin_lock_irqsave;percpu_counter_add_batch;__vm_enough_memory;mmap_region;do_mmap; 45.91% _raw_spin_lock_irqsave;percpu_counter_add_batch;__do_munmap; Actually this heavy lock contention is not always necessary. The 'vm_committed_as' needs to be very precise when the strict OVERCOMMIT_NEVER policy is set, which requires a rather small batch number for the percpu counter. So keep 'batch' number unchanged for strict OVERCOMMIT_NEVER policy, and lift it to 64X for OVERCOMMIT_ALWAYS and OVERCOMMIT_GUESS policies. Also add a sysctl handler to adjust it when the policy is reconfigured. Benchmark with the same testcase in [1] shows 53% improvement on a 8C/16T desktop, and 2097%(20X) on a 4S/72C/144T server. We tested with test platforms in 0day (server, desktop and laptop), and 80%+ platforms shows improvements with that test. And whether it shows improvements depends on if the test mmap size is bigger than the batch number computed. And if the lift is 16X, 1/3 of the platforms will show improvements, though it should help the mmap/unmap usage generally, as Michal Hocko mentioned: : I believe that there are non-synthetic worklaods which would benefit from : a larger batch. E.g. large in memory databases which do large mmaps : during startups from multiple threads.

percpu_counter_sum_positive() will provide more accurate info. As with percpu_counter_read_positive(), in worst case the deviation could be 'batch * nr_cpus', which is totalram_pages/256 for now, and will be more when the batch gets enlarged. Its time cost is about 800 nanoseconds on a 2C/4T platform and 2~3 microseconds on a 2S/36C/72T Skylake server in normal case, and in worst case where vm_committed_as's spinlock is under severe contention, it costs 30~40 microseconds for the 2S/36C/72T Skylake sever, which should be fine for its only two users: /proc/meminfo and HyperV balloon driver's status trace per second.

2020-06-05mm/util.c: remove the VM_WARN_ONCE for vm_committed_as underflow checkFeng Tang1-4/+0
This check was added by commit 82f71ae4a2b8 ("mm: catch memory commitment underflow") in 2014 to have a safety check for issues which have been fixed. And there has been few report caught by it, as described in its commit log: : This shouldn't happen any more - the previous two patches fixed : the committed_as underflow issues. But it was really found by Qian Cai when he used the LTP memory stress suite to test a RFC patchset, which tries to improve scalability of per-cpu counter 'vm_committed_as', by chosing a bigger 'batch' number for loose overcommit policies (OVERCOMMIT_ALWAYS and OVERCOMMIT_GUESS), while keeping current number for OVERCOMMIT_NEVER. With that patchset, when system firstly uses a loose policy, the 'vm_committed_as' count could be a big negative value, as its big 'batch' number allows a big deviation, then when the policy is changed to OVERCOMMIT_NEVER, the 'batch' will be decreased to a much smaller value, thus hits this WARN check. To mitigate this, one proposed solution is to queue work on all online CPUs to do a local sync for 'vm_committed_as' when changing policy to OVERCOMMIT_NEVER, plus some global syncing to garante the case won't be hit. But this solution is costy and slow, given this check hasn't shown real trouble or benefit, simply drop it from one hot path of MM. And perf stats does show some tiny saving for removing it.

2019-09-25mm, fs: move randomize_stack_top from fs to mmAlexandre Ghiti1-0/+22
Patch series "Provide generic top-down mmap layout functions", v6. This series introduces generic functions to make top-down mmap layout easily accessible to architectures, in particular riscv which was the initial goal of this series. The generic implementation was taken from arm64 and used successively by arm, mips and finally riscv. Note that in addition the series fixes 2 issues: - stack randomization was taken into account even if not necessary. - [1] fixed an issue with mmap base which did not take into account randomization but did not report it to arm and mips, so by moving arm64 into a generic library, this problem is now fixed for both architectures. This work is an effort to factorize architecture functions to avoid code duplication and oversights as in [1]. [1]: https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org/msg1429066.html This patch (of 14): This preparatory commit moves this function so that further introduction of generic topdown mmap layout is contained only in mm/util.c.

2019-06-02prctl_set_mm: downgrade mmap_sem to read lockMichal Koutný1-2/+2
The commit a3b609ef9f8b ("proc read mm's {arg,env}_{start,end} with mmap semaphore taken.") added synchronization of reading argument/environment boundaries under mmap_sem. Later commit 88aa7cc688d4 ("mm: introduce arg_lock to protect arg_start|end and env_start|end in mm_struct") avoided the coarse use of mmap_sem in similar situations. But there still remained two places that (mis)use mmap_sem. get_cmdline should also use arg_lock instead of mmap_sem when it reads the boundaries. The second place that should use arg_lock is in prctl_set_mm. By protecting the boundaries fields with the arg_lock, we can downgrade mmap_sem to reader lock (analogous to what we already do in prctl_set_mm_map).

2019-05-14mm: fix false-positive OVERCOMMIT_GUESS failuresJohannes Weiner1-46/+5
With the default overcommit==guess we occasionally run into mmap rejections despite plenty of memory that would get dropped under pressure but just isn't accounted reclaimable. One example of this is dying cgroups pinned by some page cache. A previous case was auxiliary path name memory associated with dentries; we have since annotated those allocations to avoid overcommit failures (see d79f7aa496fc ("mm: treat indirectly reclaimable memory as free in overcommit logic")). But trying to classify all allocated memory reliably as reclaimable and unreclaimable is a bit of a fool's errand. There could be a myriad of dependencies that constantly change with kernel versions. It becomes even more questionable of an effort when considering how this estimate of available memory is used: it's not compared to the system-wide allocated virtual memory in any way. It's not even compared to the allocating process's address space. It's compared to the single allocation request at hand! So we have an elaborate left-hand side of the equation that tries to assess the exact breathing room the system has available down to a page - and then compare it to an isolated allocation request with no additional context. We could fail an allocation of N bytes, but for two allocations of N/2 bytes we'd do this elaborate dance twice in a row and then still let N bytes of virtual memory through. This doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Let's take a step back and look at the actual goal of the heuristic. From the documentation: Heuristic overcommit handling. Obvious overcommits of address space are refused. Used for a typical system. It ensures a seriously wild allocation fails while allowing overcommit to reduce swap usage. root is allowed to allocate slightly more memory in this mode. This is the default. If all we want to do is catch clearly bogus allocation requests irrespective of the general virtual memory situation, the physical memory counter-part doesn't need to be that complicated, either. When in GUESS mode, catch wild allocations by comparing their request size to total amount of ram and swap in the system.

2019-05-14mm/gup: change GUP fast to use flags rather than a write 'bool'Ira Weiny1-4/+4
To facilitate additional options to get_user_pages_fast() change the singular write parameter to be gup_flags. This patch does not change any functionality. New functionality will follow in subsequent patches. Some of the get_user_pages_fast() call sites were unchanged because they already passed FOLL_WRITE or 0 for the write parameter. NOTE: It was suggested to change the ordering of the get_user_pages_fast() arguments to ensure that callers were converted. This breaks the current GUP call site convention of having the returned pages be the final parameter. So the suggestion was rejected.

2019-02-21mm: don't let userspace spam allocations warningsDaniel Vetter1-1/+1
memdump_user usually gets fed unchecked userspace input. Blasting a full backtrace into dmesg every time is a bit excessive - I'm not sure on the kernel rule in general, but at least in drm we're trying not to let unpriviledge userspace spam the logs freely. Definitely not entire warning backtraces. It also means more filtering for our CI, because our testsuite exercises these corner cases and so hits these a lot.

2019-01-09mm: page_mapped: don't assume compound page is huge or THPJan Stancek1-1/+1
LTP proc01 testcase has been observed to rarely trigger crashes on arm64: page_mapped+0x78/0xb4 stable_page_flags+0x27c/0x338 kpageflags_read+0xfc/0x164 proc_reg_read+0x7c/0xb8 __vfs_read+0x58/0x178 vfs_read+0x90/0x14c SyS_read+0x60/0xc0 The issue is that page_mapped() assumes that if compound page is not huge, then it must be THP. But if this is 'normal' compound page (COMPOUND_PAGE_DTOR), then following loop can keep running (for HPAGE_PMD_NR iterations) until it tries to read from memory that isn't mapped and triggers a panic: for (i = 0; i < hpage_nr_pages(page); i++) { if (atomic_read(&page[i]._mapcount) >= 0) return true; } I could replicate this on x86 (v4.20-rc4-98-g60b548237fed) only with a custom kernel module [1] which: - allocates compound page (PAGEC) of order 1 - allocates 2 normal pages (COPY), which are initialized to 0xff (to satisfy _mapcount >= 0) - 2 PAGEC page structs are copied to address of first COPY page - second page of COPY is marked as not present - call to page_mapped(COPY) now triggers fault on access to 2nd COPY page at offset 0x30 (_mapcount) [1] https://github.com/jstancek/reproducers/blob/master/kernel/page_mapped_crash/repro.c Fix the loop to iterate for "1 << compound_order" pages.

2018-10-27mm: rename and change semantics of nr_indirectly_reclaimable_bytesVlastimil Babka1-2/+1
The vmstat counter NR_INDIRECTLY_RECLAIMABLE_BYTES was introduced by commit eb59254608bc ("mm: introduce NR_INDIRECTLY_RECLAIMABLE_BYTES") with the goal of accounting objects that can be reclaimed, but cannot be allocated via a SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT cache. This is now possible via kmalloc() with __GFP_RECLAIMABLE flag, and the dcache external names user is converted. The counter is however still useful for accounting direct page allocations (i.e. not slab) with a shrinker, such as the ION page pool. So keep it, and: - change granularity to pages to be more like other counters; sub-page allocations should be able to use kmalloc - rename the counter to NR_KERNEL_MISC_RECLAIMABLE - expose the counter again in vmstat as "nr_kernel_misc_reclaimable"; we can again remove the check for not printing "hidden" counters Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180731090649.16028-5-vbabka@suse.cz Signed-off-by: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Acked-by: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Acked-by: Roman Gushchin <guro@fb.com> Cc: Vijayanand Jitta <vjitta@codeaurora.org> Cc: Laura Abbott <labbott@redhat.com> Cc: Sumit Semwal <sumit.semwal@linaro.org> Cc: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@lge.com> Cc: Matthew Wilcox <willy@infradead.org> Cc: Mel Gorman <mgorman@techsingularity.net> Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2018-06-08mm: kvmalloc does not fallback to vmalloc for incompatible gfp flagsMichal Hocko1-2/+4
kvmalloc warned about incompatible gfp_mask to catch abusers (mostly GFP_NOFS) with an intention that this will motivate authors of the code to fix those. Linus argues that this just motivates people to do even more hacks like if (gfp == GFP_KERNEL) kvmalloc else kmalloc I haven't seen this happening much (Linus pointed to bucket_lock special cases an atomic allocation but my git foo hasn't found much more) but it is true that we can grow those in future. Therefore Linus suggested to simply not fallback to vmalloc for incompatible gfp flags and rather stick with the kmalloc path.

2018-04-11exec: pass stack rlimit into mm layout functionsKees Cook1-1/+1
Patch series "exec: Pin stack limit during exec". Attempts to solve problems with the stack limit changing during exec continue to be frustrated[1][2]. In addition to the specific issues around the Stack Clash family of flaws, Andy Lutomirski pointed out[3] other places during exec where the stack limit is used and is assumed to be unchanging. Given the many places it gets used and the fact that it can be manipulated/raced via setrlimit() and prlimit(), I think the only way to handle this is to move away from the "current" view of the stack limit and instead attach it to the bprm, and plumb this down into the functions that need to know the stack limits. This series implements the approach. [1] 04e35f4495dd ("exec: avoid RLIMIT_STACK races with prlimit()") [2] 779f4e1c6c7c ("Revert "exec: avoid RLIMIT_STACK races with prlimit()"") [3] to security@kernel.org, "Subject: existing rlimit races?" This patch (of 3): Since it is possible that the stack rlimit can change externally during exec (either via another thread calling setrlimit() or another process calling prlimit()), provide a way to pass the rlimit down into the per-architecture mm layout functions so that the rlimit can stay in the bprm structure instead of sitting in the signal structure until exec is finalized.

2018-04-11mm: treat indirectly reclaimable memory as free in overcommit logicRoman Gushchin1-0/+7
Indirectly reclaimable memory can consume a significant part of total memory and it's actually reclaimable (it will be released under actual memory pressure). So, the overcommit logic should treat it as free. Otherwise, it's possible to cause random system-wide memory allocation failures by consuming a significant amount of memory by indirectly reclaimable memory, e.g. dentry external names. If overcommit policy GUESS is used, it might be used for denial of service attack under some conditions. The following program illustrates the approach. It causes the kernel to allocate an unreclaimable kmalloc-256 chunk for each stat() call, so that at some point the overcommit logic may start blocking large allocation system-wide. int main() { char buf[256]; unsigned long i; struct stat statbuf; buf[0] = '/'; for (i = 1; i < sizeof(buf); i++) buf[i] = '_'; for (i = 0; 1; i++) { sprintf(&buf[248], "%8lu", i); stat(buf, &statbuf); } return 0; } This patch in combination with related indirectly reclaimable memory patches closes this issue.

2018-04-06mm: fix races between swapoff and flush dcacheHuang Ying1-0/+10
Thanks to commit 4b3ef9daa4fc ("mm/swap: split swap cache into 64MB trunks"), after swapoff the address_space associated with the swap device will be freed. So page_mapping() users which may touch the address_space need some kind of mechanism to prevent the address_space from being freed during accessing. The dcache flushing functions (flush_dcache_page(), etc) in architecture specific code may access the address_space of swap device for anonymous pages in swap cache via page_mapping() function. But in some cases there are no mechanisms to prevent the swap device from being swapoff, for example, CPU1 CPU2 __get_user_pages() swapoff() flush_dcache_page() mapping = page_mapping() ... exit_swap_address_space() ... kvfree(spaces) mapping_mapped(mapping) The address space may be accessed after being freed. But from cachetlb.txt and Russell King, flush_dcache_page() only care about file cache pages, for anonymous pages, flush_anon_page() should be used. The implementation of flush_dcache_page() in all architectures follows this too. They will check whether page_mapping() is NULL and whether mapping_mapped() is true to determine whether to flush the dcache immediately. And they will use interval tree (mapping->i_mmap) to find all user space mappings. While mapping_mapped() and mapping->i_mmap isn't used by anonymous pages in swap cache at all. So, to fix the race between swapoff and flush dcache, __page_mapping() is add to return the address_space for file cache pages and NULL otherwise. All page_mapping() invoking in flush dcache functions are replaced with page_mapping_file().
