Add the test script for the kernel test driver to analyse vmalloc
allocator for benchmarking and stressing purposes. It is just a kernel
module loader. You can specify and pass different parameters in order
to investigate allocations behaviour. See "usage" output for more
details.
Also add basic vmalloc smoke test to the "run_vmtests" suite.

This adds a new kernel module for analysis of vmalloc allocator. It is
only enabled as a module. There are two main reasons this module should
be used for: performance evaluation and stressing of vmalloc subsystem.
It consists of several test cases. As of now there are 8. The module
has five parameters we can specify to change its the behaviour.
1) run_test_mask - set of tests to be run
id: 1, name: fix_size_alloc_test
id: 2, name: full_fit_alloc_test
id: 4, name: long_busy_list_alloc_test
id: 8, name: random_size_alloc_test
id: 16, name: fix_align_alloc_test
id: 32, name: random_size_align_alloc_test
id: 64, name: align_shift_alloc_test
id: 128, name: pcpu_alloc_test
By default all tests are in run test mask. If you want to select some
specific tests it is possible to pass the mask. For example for first,
second and fourth tests we go 11 value.
2) test_repeat_count - how many times each test should be repeated
By default it is one time per test. It is possible to pass any number.
As high the value is the test duration gets increased.
3) test_loop_count - internal test loop counter. By default it is set
to 1000000.
4) single_cpu_test - use one CPU to run the tests
By default this parameter is set to false. It means that all online
CPUs execute tests. By setting it to 1, the tests are executed by
first online CPU only.
5) sequential_test_order - run tests in sequential order
By default this parameter is set to false. It means that before running
tests the order is shuffled. It is possible to make it sequential, just
set it to 1.
Performance analysis:
In order to evaluate performance of vmalloc allocations, usually it
makes sense to use only one CPU that runs tests, use sequential order,
number of repeat tests can be different as well as set of test mask.
For example if we want to run all tests, to use one CPU and repeat each
test 3 times. Insert the module passing following parameters:
single_cpu_test=1 sequential_test_order=1 test_repeat_count=3
with following output:
<snip>
Summary: fix_size_alloc_test passed: 3 failed: 0 repeat: 3 loops: 1000000 avg: 901177 usec
Summary: full_fit_alloc_test passed: 3 failed: 0 repeat: 3 loops: 1000000 avg: 1039341 usec
Summary: long_busy_list_alloc_test passed: 3 failed: 0 repeat: 3 loops: 1000000 avg: 11775763 usec
Summary: random_size_alloc_test passed 3: failed: 0 repeat: 3 loops: 1000000 avg: 6081992 usec
Summary: fix_align_alloc_test passed: 3 failed: 0 repeat: 3, loops: 1000000 avg: 2003712 usec
Summary: random_size_align_alloc_test passed: 3 failed: 0 repeat: 3 loops: 1000000 avg: 2895689 usec
Summary: align_shift_alloc_test passed: 0 failed: 3 repeat: 3 loops: 1000000 avg: 573 usec
Summary: pcpu_alloc_test passed: 3 failed: 0 repeat: 3 loops: 1000000 avg: 95802 usec
All test took CPU0=192945605995 cycles
<snip>
The align_shift_alloc_test is expected to be failed.
Stressing:
In order to stress the vmalloc subsystem we run all available test cases
on all available CPUs simultaneously. In order to prevent constant behaviour
pattern, the test cases array is shuffled by default to randomize the order
of test execution.
For example if we want to run all tests(default), use all online CPUs(default)
with shuffled order(default) and to repeat each test 30 times. The command
would be like:
modprobe vmalloc_test test_repeat_count=30
Expected results are the system is alive, there are no any BUG_ONs or Kernel
Panics the tests are completed, no memory leaks.

VM_USERMAP flags for the area. During the whole history of vmalloc.c
changes now it is possible simply to pass VM_USERMAP flags directly to
__vmalloc_node_range() call instead of finding the area (which obviously
takes time) after the allocation.

When VM_NO_GUARD is not set area->size includes adjacent guard page,
thus for correct size checking get_vm_area_size() should be used, but
not area->size.
This fixes possible kernel oops when userspace tries to mmap an area on
1 page bigger than was allocated by vmalloc_user() call: the size check
inside remap_vmalloc_range_partial() accounts non-existing guard page
also, so check successfully passes but vmalloc_to_page() returns NULL
(guard page does not physically exist).
The following code pattern example should trigger an oops:
static int oops_mmap(struct file *file, struct vm_area_struct *vma)
{
void *mem;
mem = vmalloc_user(4096);
BUG_ON(!mem);
/* Do not care about mem leak */
return remap_vmalloc_range(vma, mem, 0);
}
And userspace simply mmaps size + PAGE_SIZE:
mmap(NULL, 8192, PROT_WRITE|PROT_READ, MAP_PRIVATE, fd, 0);
Possible candidates for oops which do not have any explicit size
checks:
*** drivers/media/usb/stkwebcam/stk-webcam.c:
v4l_stk_mmap[789] ret = remap_vmalloc_range(vma, sbuf->buffer, 0);
Or the following one:
*** drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbmem.c
static int
fb_mmap(struct file *file, struct vm_area_struct * vma)
...
res = fb->fb_mmap(info, vma);
Where fb_mmap callback calls remap_vmalloc_range() directly without any
explicit checks:
*** drivers/video/fbdev/vfb.c
static int vfb_mmap(struct fb_info *info,
struct vm_area_struct *vma)
{
return remap_vmalloc_range(vma, (void *)info->fix.smem_start, vma->vm_pgoff);
}

This patch repeats the original one from David S Miller:
2dca6999ee ("mm, perf_event: Make vmalloc_user() align base kernel virtual address to SHMLBA")
but for missed vmalloc_32_user() case, which also requires correct
alignment of virtual address on kernel side to avoid D-caches aliases.
A bit of copy-paste from original patch to recover in memory of what is
all about:
When a vmalloc'd area is mmap'd into userspace, some kind of
co-ordination is necessary for this to work on platforms with cpu
D-caches which can have aliases.
Otherwise kernel side writes won't be seen properly in userspace and
vice versa.
If the kernel side mapping and the user side one have the same
alignment, modulo SHMLBA, this can work as long as VM_SHARED is shared
of VMA and for all current users this is true. VM_SHARED will force
SHMLBA alignment of the user side mmap on platforms with D-cache
aliasing matters.
David S. Miller
> What are the user-visible runtime effects of this change?
In simple words: proper alignment avoids possible difference in data,
seen by different virtual mapings: userspace and kernel in our case.
I.e. userspace reads cache line A, kernel writes to cache line B. Both
cache lines correspond to the same physical memory (thus aliases).
So this should fix data corruption for archs with vivt and vipt caches,
e.g. armv6. Personally I've never worked with this archs, I just
spotted the strange difference in code: for one case we do alignment,
for another - not. I have a strong feeling that David simply missed
vmalloc_32_user() case.
>
> Is a -stable backport needed?
No, I do not think so. The only one user of vmalloc_32_user() is
virtual frame buffer device drivers/video/fbdev/vfb.c, which has in the
description "The main use of this frame buffer device is testing and
debugging the frame buffer subsystem. Do NOT enable it for normal
systems!".
And it seems to me that this vfb.c does not need 32bit addressable pages
(vmalloc_32_user() case), because it is virtual device and should not
care about things like dma32 zones, etc. Probably is better to clean
the code and switch vfb.c from vmalloc_32_user() to vmalloc_user() case
and wipe out vmalloc_32_user() from vmalloc.c completely. But I'm not
very much sure that this is worth to do, that's so minor, so we can
leave it as is.

Add an optimization for KSM pages almost in the same way that we have
for ordinary anonymous pages. If there is a write fault in a page,
which is mapped to an only pte, and it is not related to swap cache; the
page may be reused without copying its content.
[ Note that we do not consider PageSwapCache() pages at least for now,
since we don't want to complicate __get_ksm_page(), which has nice
optimization based on this (for the migration case). Currenly it is
spinning on PageSwapCache() pages, waiting for when they have
unfreezed counters (i.e., for the migration finish). But we don't want
to make it also spinning on swap cache pages, which we try to reuse,
since there is not a very high probability to reuse them. So, for now
we do not consider PageSwapCache() pages at all. ]
So in reuse_ksm_page() we check for 1) PageSwapCache() and 2)
page_stable_node(), to skip a page, which KSM is currently trying to
link to stable tree. Then we do page_ref_freeze() to prohibit KSM to
merge one more page into the page, we are reusing. After that, nobody
can refer to the reusing page: KSM skips !PageSwapCache() pages with
zero refcount; and the protection against of all other participants is
the same as for reused ordinary anon pages pte lock, page lock and
mmap_sem.

Patch series "Replace all open encodings for NUMA_NO_NODE", v3.
All these places for replacement were found by running the following
grep patterns on the entire kernel code. Please let me know if this
might have missed some instances. This might also have replaced some
false positives. I will appreciate suggestions, inputs and review.
1. git grep "nid == -1"
2. git grep "node == -1"
3. git grep "nid = -1"
4. git grep "node = -1"
This patch (of 2):
At present there are multiple places where invalid node number is
encoded as -1. Even though implicitly understood it is always better to
have macros in there. Replace these open encodings for an invalid node
number with the global macro NUMA_NO_NODE. This helps remove NUMA
related assumptions like 'invalid node' from various places redirecting
them to a common definition.

Right now, pages inflated as part of a balloon driver will be dumped by
dump tools like makedumpfile. While XEN is able to check in the crash

hypervisor (see xen_oldmem_pfn_is_ram) and optimize this case, dumps of
other balloon inflated memory will essentially result in zero pages
getting allocated by the hypervisor and the dump getting filled with

The allocation and reading of zero pages can directly be avoided if a

We now have PG_offline which can be (and already is by virtio-balloon)
used for marking pages as logically offline. Follow up patches will
make use of this flag also in other balloon implementations.
Let's export PG_offline via PAGE_OFFLINE_MAPCOUNT_VALUE, so makedumpfile
can directly skip pages that are logically offline and the content
therefore stale.
Please note that this is also helpful for a problem we were seeing under
Hyper-V: Dumping logically offline memory (pages kept fake offline while
onlining a section via online_page_callback) would under some condicions
result in a kernel panic when dumping them.

PG_balloon was introduced to implement page migration/compaction for
pages inflated in virtio-balloon. Nowadays, it is only a marker that a
page is part of virtio-balloon and therefore logically offline.
We also want to make use of this flag in other balloon drivers - for
inflated pages or when onlining a section but keeping some pages offline
(e.g. used right now by XEN and Hyper-V via set_online_page_callback()).
We are going to expose this flag to dump tools like makedumpfile. But
instead of exposing PG_balloon, let's generalize the concept of marking
pages as logically offline, so it can be reused for other purposes later
on.
Rename PG_balloon to PG_offline. This is an indicator that the page is
logically offline, the content stale and that it should not be touched
(e.g. a hypervisor would have to allocate backing storage in order for
the guest to dump an unused page). We can then e.g. exclude such pages
from dumps.
We replace and reuse KPF_BALLOON (23), as this shouldn't really harm
(and for now the semantics stay the same). In following patches, we
will make use of this bit also in other balloon drivers. While at it,
document PGTABLE.

Patch series "mm/kdump: allow to exclude pages that are logically
offline"
Right now, pages inflated as part of a balloon driver will be dumped by
dump tools like makedumpfile. While XEN is able to check in the crash
kernel whether a certain pfn is actuall backed by memory in the
hypervisor (see xen_oldmem_pfn_is_ram) and optimize this case, dumps of
virtio-balloon, hv-balloon and VMWare balloon inflated memory will
essentially result in zero pages getting allocated by the hypervisor and
the dump getting filled with this data.
The allocation and reading of zero pages can directly be avoided if a
dumping tool could know which pages only contain stale information not
to be dumped.
Also for XEN, calling into the kernel and asking the hypervisor if a pfn
is backed can be avoided if the duming tool would skip such pages right
from the beginning.
Dumping tools have no idea whether a given page is part of a balloon
driver and shall not be dumped. Esp. PG_reserved cannot be used for
that purpose as all memory allocated during early boot is also
PG_reserved, see discussion at [1]. So some other way of indication is
required and a new page flag is frowned upon.
We have PG_balloon (MAPCOUNT value), which is essentially unused now. I
suggest renaming it to something more generic (PG_offline) to mark pages
as logically offline. This flag can than e.g. also be used by
virtio-mem in the future to mark subsections as offline. Or by other
code that wants to put pages logically offline (e.g. later maybe
poisoned pages that shall no longer be used).
This series converts PG_balloon to PG_offline, allows dumping tools to
query the value to detect such pages and marks pages in the hv-balloon
and XEN balloon properly as PG_offline. Note that virtio-balloon
already set pages to PG_balloon (and now PG_offline).
Please note that this is also helpful for a problem we were seeing under
Hyper-V: Dumping logically offline memory (pages kept fake offline while
onlining a section via online_page_callback) would under some condicions
result in a kernel panic when dumping them.
As I don't have access to neither XEN nor Hyper-V nor VMWare
installations, this was only tested with the virtio-balloon and pages
were properly skipped when dumping. I'll also attach the makedumpfile
patch to this series.
[1] https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/7/20/566
This patch (of 8):
Commit b1123ea6d3 ("mm: balloon: use general non-lru movable page
feature") reworked balloon handling to make use of the general non-lru
movable page feature. The big comment block in balloon_compaction.h
contains quite some outdated information. Let's fix this.

When freeing pages are done with higher order, time spent on coalescing
pages by buddy allocator can be reduced. With section size of 256MB,
hot add latency of a single section shows improvement from 50-60 ms to
less than 1 ms, hence improving the hot add latency by 60 times. Modify
external providers of online callback to align with the change.

Kmemleak throws endless warnings during boot due to in
__alloc_alien_cache(),
alc = kmalloc_node(memsize, gfp, node);
init_arraycache(&alc->ac, entries, batch);
kmemleak_no_scan(ac);
Kmemleak does not track the array cache (alc->ac) but the alien cache
(alc) instead, so let it track the latter by lifting kmemleak_no_scan()
out of init_arraycache().
There is another place that calls init_arraycache(), but
alloc_kmem_cache_cpus() uses the percpu allocation where will never be
considered as a leak.

It seems that commits 5f16f3225b and 00a1a053eb, both with same
commitlog ("ext4: atomically set inode->i_flags in ext4_set_inode_flags()")
introduced the set_mask_bits API, but somehow missed not using it in ext4
in the end.
Also, set_mask_bits() is used in fs quite a bit and we can possibly come
up with a generic llsc based implementation (w/o the cmpxchg loop)

Update the code to use a zero-sized array instead of a pointer in
structure ocfs2_slot_info and use struct_size() in kzalloc().
Notice that one of the more common cases of allocation size calculations
is finding the size of a structure that has a zero-sized array at the
end, along with memory for some number of elements for that array. For
example:
struct foo {
int stuff;
void *entry[];
};
instance = kzalloc(sizeof(struct foo) + sizeof(void *) * count, GFP_KERNEL);
Instead of leaving these open-coded and prone to type mistakes, we can
now use the new struct_size() helper:
instance = kzalloc(struct_size(instance, entry, count), GFP_KERNEL);
This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.

The user reported this problem, the upper application IO was timeout
when fstrim was running on this ocfs2 partition. the application
monitoring resource agent considered that this application did not work,
then this node was fenced by the cluster brain (e.g. pacemaker).
The root cause is that fstrim thread always holds main_bm meta-file
related locks until all the cluster groups are trimmed. This patch will
make fstrim thread release main_bm meta-file related locks when each
cluster group is trimmed, this will let the current application IO has a
chance to claim the clusters from main_bm meta-file.

In the process of creating a node, it will cause NULL pointer
dereference in kernel if o2cb_ctl failed in the interval (mkdir,
o2cb_set_node_attribute(node_num)] in function o2cb_add_node.
The node num is initialized to 0 in function o2nm_node_group_make_item,
o2nm_node_group_drop_item will mistake the node number 0 for a valid
node number when we delete the node before the node number is set
correctly. If the local node number of the current host happens to be
0, cluster->cl_local_node will be set to O2NM_INVALID_NODE_NUM while
o2hb_thread still running. The panic stack is generated as follows:
o2hb_thread

\-o2hb_check_own_slot
|-slot = ®->hr_slots[o2nm_this_node()];
//o2nm_this_node() return O2NM_INVALID_NODE_NUM
We need to check whether the node number is set when we delete the node.

The __SYSCALL macro's arguments are system call number, system call
entry name and number of arguments for the system call.
Argument- nargs in __SYSCALL(nr, entry, nargs) is neither calculated nor
used anywhere. So it would be better to keep the implementation as
__SYSCALL(nr, entry). This unifies the implementation with some other
architectures too.

Building little-endian allmodconfig kernels on arm64 started failing
with the generated atomic.h implementation, since we now try to call
kasan helpers from the EFI stub:
aarch64-linux-gnu-ld: drivers/firmware/efi/libstub/arm-stub.stub.o: in function `atomic_set':
include/generated/atomic-instrumented.h:44: undefined reference to `__efistub_kasan_check_write'
I suspect that we get similar problems in other files that explicitly
disable KASAN for some reason but call atomic_t based helper functions.
We can fix this by checking the predefined __SANITIZE_ADDRESS__ macro
that the compiler sets instead of checking CONFIG_KASAN, but this in
turn requires a small hack in mm/kasan/common.c so we do see the extern
declaration there instead of the inline function.

Use after scope bugs detector seems to be almost entirely useless for
the linux kernel. It exists over two years, but I've seen only one
valid bug so far [1]. And the bug was fixed before it has been
reported. There were some other use-after-scope reports, but they were
false-positives due to different reasons like incompatibility with
structleak plugin.
This feature significantly increases stack usage, especially with GCC <
9 version, and causes a 32K stack overflow. It probably adds
performance penalty too.
Given all that, let's remove use-after-scope detector entirely.
While preparing this patch I've noticed that we mistakenly enable
use-after-scope detection for clang compiler regardless of
CONFIG_KASAN_EXTRA setting. This is also fixed now.

Linux supports ELF binaries for ~25 years now. a.out coredumping has
bitrotten quite significantly and would need some fixing to get it into
shape again but considering how even the toolchains cannot create a.out
executables in its default configuration, let's deprecate a.out support
and remove it a couple of releases later, instead.

We're (finally) phasing out a.out support for good. As Borislav Petkov
points out, we've supported ELF binaries for about 25 years by now, and
coredumping in particular has bitrotted over the years.
None of the tool chains even support generating a.out binaries any more,
and the plan is to deprecate a.out support entirely for the kernel. But
I want to start with just removing the core dumping code, because I can
still imagine that somebody actually might want to support a.out as a
simpler biinary format.
Particularly if you generate some random binaries on the fly, ELF is a
much more complicated format (admittedly ELF also does have a lot of
toolchain support, mitigating that complexity a lot and you really
should have moved over in the last 25 years).
So it's at least somewhat possible that somebody out there has some
workflow that still involves generating and running a.out executables.
In contrast, it's very unlikely that anybody depends on debugging any
legacy a.out core files. But regardless, I want this phase-out to be
done in two steps, so that we can resurrect a.out support (if needed)
without having to resurrect the core file dumping that is almost
certainly not needed.
Jann Horn pointed to the <asm/a.out-core.h> file that my first trivial
cut at this had missed.
And Alan Cox points out that the a.out binary loader _could_ be done in
user space if somebody wants to, but we might keep just the loader in
the kernel if somebody really wants it, since the loader isn't that big
and has no really odd special cases like the core dumping does.
