      ftrace: Fix kmemleak in unregister_ftrace_graph · 2b0b8499
      Shu Wang authored 
      The trampoline allocated by function tracer was overwriten by function_graph
tracer, and caused a memory leak. The save_global_trampoline should have
saved the previous trampoline in register_ftrace_graph() and restored it in
unregister_ftrace_graph(). But as it is implemented, save_global_trampoline was
only used in unregister_ftrace_graph as default value 0, and it overwrote the
previous trampoline's value. Causing the previous allocated trampoline to be
lost.

  Looking further into this, I found that this was left over from when the
  function and function graph tracers shared the same ftrace_ops. But in
  commit 5f151b24 ("ftrace: Fix function_profiler and function tracer
  together"), the two were separated, and the save_global_trampoline no
  longer was necessary (and it may have been broken back then too).

      tracing: Add barrier to trace_printk() buffer nesting modification · 3d9622c1
      Steven Rostedt (VMware) authored 
      trace_printk() uses 4 buffers, one for each context (normal, softirq, irq
and NMI), such that it does not need to worry about one context preempting
the other. There's a nesting counter that gets incremented to figure out
which buffer to use. If the context gets preempted by another context which
calls trace_printk() it will increment the counter and use the next buffer,
and restore the counter when it is finished.

The problem is that gcc may optimize the modification of the buffer nesting
counter and it may not be incremented in memory before the buffer is used.
If this happens, and the context gets interrupted by another context, it
could pick the same buffer and corrupt the one that is being used.

Compiler barriers need to be added after the nesting variable is incremented
and before it is decremented to prevent usage of the context buffers by more
than one context at the same time.

      ftrace: Fix memleak when unregistering dynamic ops when tracing disabled · edb096e0
      Steven Rostedt (VMware) authored 
      If function tracing is disabled by the user via the function-trace option or
the proc sysctl file, and a ftrace_ops that was allocated on the heap is
unregistered, then the shutdown code exits out without doing the proper
clean up. This was found via kmemleak and running the ftrace selftests, as
one of the tests unregisters with function tracing disabled.

      ftrace: Zero out ftrace hashes when a module is removed · 2a5bfe47
      Steven Rostedt (VMware) authored 
      When a ftrace filter has a module function, and that module is removed, the
filter still has its address as being enabled. This can cause interesting
side effects. Nothing dangerous, but unwanted functions can be traced
because of it.

 # cd /sys/kernel/tracing
 # echo ':mod:snd_seq' > set_ftrace_filter
 # cat set_ftrace_filter
snd_use_lock_sync_helper [snd_seq]
check_event_type_and_length [snd_seq]
snd_seq_ioctl_pversion [snd_seq]
snd_seq_ioctl_client_id [snd_seq]
snd_seq_ioctl_get_queue_tempo [snd_seq]
update_timestamp_of_queue [snd_seq]
snd_seq_ioctl_get_queue_status [snd_seq]
snd_seq_set_queue_tempo [snd_seq]
snd_seq_ioctl_set_queue_tempo [snd_seq]
snd_seq_ioctl_get_queue_timer [snd_seq]
seq_free_client1 [snd_seq]
[..]
 # rmmod snd_seq
 # cat set_ftrace_filter

 # modprobe kvm
 # cat set_ftrace_filter
kvm_set_cr4 [kvm]
kvm_emulate_hypercall [kvm]
kvm_set_dr [kvm]

This is because removing the snd_seq module after it was being filtered,
left the address of the snd_seq functions in the hash. When the kvm module
was loaded, some of its functions were loaded at the same address as the
snd_seq module. This would enable them to be filtered and traced.

Now we don't want to clear the hash completely. That would cause removing a
module where only its functions are filtered, to cause the tracing to enable
all functions, as an empty filter means to trace all functions. Instead,
just set the hash ip address to zero. Then it will never match any function.

      tracing: Only have rmmod clear buffers that its events were active in · 065e63f9
      Steven Rostedt (VMware) authored 
      Currently, when a module event is enabled, when that module is removed, it
clears all ring buffers. This is to prevent another module from being loaded
and having one of its trace event IDs from reusing a trace event ID of the
removed module. This could cause undesirable effects as the trace event of
the new module would be using its own processing algorithms to process raw
data of another event. To prevent this, when a module is loaded, if any of
its events have been used (signified by the WAS_ENABLED event call flag,
which is never cleared), all ring buffers are cleared, just in case any one
of them contains event data of the removed event.

The problem is, there's no reason to clear all ring buffers if only one (or
less than all of them) uses one of the events. Instead, only clear the ring
buffers that recorded the events of a module that is being removed.

To do this, instead of keeping the WAS_ENABLED flag with the trace event
call, move it to the per instance (per ring buffer) event file descriptor.
The event file descriptor maps each event to a separate ring buffer
instance. Then when the module is removed, only the ring buffers that
activated one of the module's events get cleared. The rest are not touched.

      Avoid page waitqueue race leaving possible page locker waiting · a8b169af
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      The "lock_page_killable()" function waits for exclusive access to the
page lock bit using the WQ_FLAG_EXCLUSIVE bit in the waitqueue entry
set.

That means that if it gets woken up, other waiters may have been
skipped.

That, in turn, means that if it sees the page being unlocked, it *must*
take that lock and return success, even if a lethal signal is also
pending.

So instead of checking for lethal signals first, we need to check for
them after we've checked the actual bit that we were waiting for.  Even
if that might then delay the killing of the process.

This matches the order of the old "wait_on_bit_lock()" infrastructure
that the page locking used to use (and is still used in a few other
areas).

Note that if we still return an error after having unsuccessfully tried
to acquire the page lock, that is ok: that means that some other thread
was able to get ahead of us and lock the page, and when that other
thread then unlocks the page, the wakeup event will be repeated.  So any
other pending waiters will now get properly woken up.

      Minor page waitqueue cleanups · 3510ca20
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      Tim Chen and Kan Liang have been battling a customer load that shows
extremely long page wakeup lists.  The cause seems to be constant NUMA
migration of a hot page that is shared across a lot of threads, but the
actual root cause for the exact behavior has not been found.

Tim has a patch that batches the wait list traversal at wakeup time, so
that we at least don't get long uninterruptible cases where we traverse
and wake up thousands of processes and get nasty latency spikes.  That
is likely 4.14 material, but we're still discussing the page waitqueue
specific parts of it.

In the meantime, I've tried to look at making the page wait queues less
expensive, and failing miserably.  If you have thousands of threads
waiting for the same page, it will be painful.  We'll need to try to
figure out the NUMA balancing issue some day, in addition to avoiding
the excessive spinlock hold times.

That said, having tried to rewrite the page wait queues, I can at least
fix up some of the braindamage in the current situation. In particular:

 (a) we don't want to continue walking the page wait list if the bit
     we're waiting for already got set again (which seems to be one of
     the patterns of the bad load).  That makes no progress and just
     causes pointless cache pollution chasing the pointers.

 (b) we don't want to put the non-locking waiters always on the front of
     the queue, and the locking waiters always on the back.  Not only is
     that unfair, it means that we wake up thousands of reading threads
     that will just end up being blocked by the writer later anyway.

Also add a comment about the layout of 'struct wait_page_key' - there is
an external user of it in the cachefiles code that means that it has to
match the layout of 'struct wait_bit_key' in the two first members.  It
so happens to match, because 'struct page *' and 'unsigned long *' end
up having the same values simply because the page flags are the first
member in struct page.

      Clarify (and fix) MAX_LFS_FILESIZE macros · 0cc3b0ec
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      We have a MAX_LFS_FILESIZE macro that is meant to be filled in by
filesystems (and other IO targets) that know they are 64-bit clean and
don't have any 32-bit limits in their IO path.

It turns out that our 32-bit value for that limit was bogus.  On 32-bit,
the VM layer is limited by the page cache to only 32-bit index values,
but our logic for that was confusing and actually wrong.  We used to
define that value to

	(((loff_t)PAGE_SIZE << (BITS_PER_LONG-1))-1)

which is actually odd in several ways: it limits the index to 31 bits,
and then it limits files so that they can't have data in that last byte
of a page that has the highest 31-bit index (ie page index 0x7fffffff).

Neither of those limitations make sense.  The index is actually the full
32 bit unsigned value, and we can use that whole full page.  So the
maximum size of the file would logically be "PAGE_SIZE << BITS_PER_LONG".

However, we do wan tto avoid the maximum index, because we have code
that iterates over the page indexes, and we don't want that code to
overflow.  So the maximum size of a file on a 32-bit host should
actually be one page less than the full 32-bit index.

So the actual limit is ULONG_MAX << PAGE_SHIFT.  That means that we will
not actually be using the page of that last index (ULONG_MAX), but we
can grow a file up to that limit.

The wrong value of MAX_LFS_FILESIZE actually caused problems for Doug
Nazar, who was still using a 32-bit host, but with a 9.7TB 2 x RAID5
volume.  It turns out that our old MAX_LFS_FILESIZE was 8TiB (well, one
byte less), but the actual true VM limit is one page less than 16TiB.

This was invisible until commit c2a9737f ("vfs,mm: fix a dead loop
in truncate_inode_pages_range()"), which started applying that
MAX_LFS_FILESIZE limit to block devices too.

NOTE! On 64-bit, the page index isn't a limiter at all, and the limit is
actually just the offset type itself (loff_t), which is signed.  But for
clarity, on 64-bit, just use the maximum signed value, and don't make
people have to count the number of 'f' characters in the hex constant.

So just use LLONG_MAX for the 64-bit case.  That was what the value had
been before too, just written out as a hex constant.
