Vincent Whitchurch authored
Before commit 93e72b3c ("squashfs: migrate from ll_rw_block usage to BIO"), compressed blocks read by squashfs were cached in the page cache, but that is not the case after that commit. That has lead to squashfs having to re-read a lot of sectors from disk/flash. For example, the first sectors of every metadata block need to be read twice from the disk. Once partially to read the length, and a second time to read the block itself. Also, in linear reads of large files, the last sectors of one data block are re-read from disk when reading the next data block, since the compressed blocks are of variable sizes and not aligned to device blocks. This extra I/O results in a degrade in read performance of, for example, ~16% in one scenario on my ARM platform using squashfs with dm-verity and NAND. Since the decompressed data is cached in the page cache or squashfs' internal metadata and fragment caches, caching _all_ compressed pages would lead to a lot of double caching and is undesirable. But make the code cache any disk blocks which were only partially requested, since these are the ones likely to include data which is needed by other file system blocks. This restores read performance in my test scenario. The compressed block caching is only applied when the disk block size is equal to the page size, to avoid having to deal with caching sub-page reads.

Since commit f1c1a9ee ("fork: Move memcg_charge_kernel_stack() into CONFIG_VMAP_STACK"), memcg_charge_kernel_stack() has been moved into CONFIG_VMAP_STACK block, so the CONFIG_VMAP_STACK check can be removed. Furthermore, memcg_charge_kernel_stack() is only invoked by alloc_thread_stack_node() instead of dup_task_struct(). If memcg_kmem_charge_page() fails, the uncharge process is handled in memcg_charge_kernel_stack() itself instead of free_thread_stack(), so remove the incorrect comments. If memcg_charge_kernel_stack() fails to charge pages used by kernel stack, only charged pages need to be uncharged. It's unnecessary to uncharge those pages which memory cgroup pointer is NULL.

strlcpy() reads the entire source buffer first. This read may exceed the destination size limit. This is both inefficient and can lead to linear read overflows if a source string is not NUL-terminated [1]. In an effort to remove strlcpy() completely [2], replace strlcpy() here with strscpy(). No return values were used, so direct replacement is safe.

When media is not ready do not assume that the capacity information from the identify command is valid, i.e. ->total_bytes ->partition_align_bytes ->{volatile,persistent}_only_bytes. Explicitly zero out the capacity resources and exit early. Given zero-init of those fields this patch is functionally equivalent to the prior state, but it improves readability and robustness going forward.

I tried to streamline our user memory copy code fairly aggressively in commit adfcf423 ("x86: don't use REP_GOOD or ERMS for user memory copies"), in order to then be able to clean up the code and inline the modern FSRM case in commit 577e6a7f ("x86: inline the 'rep movs' in user copies for the FSRM case"). We had reports [1] of that causing regressions earlier with blogbench, but that turned out to be a horrible benchmark for that case, and not a sufficient reason for re-instating "rep movsb" on older machines. However, now Eric Dumazet reported [2] a regression in performance that seems to be a rather more real benchmark, where due to the removal of "rep movs" a TCP stream over a 100Gbps network no longer reaches line speed. And it turns out that with the simplified the calling convention for the non-FSRM case in commit 427fda2c ("x86: improve on the non-rep 'copy_user' function"), re-introducing the ERMS case is actually fairly simple. Of course, that "fairly simple" is glossing over several missteps due to having to fight our assembler alternative code. This code really wanted to rewrite a conditional branch to have two different targets, but that made objtool sufficiently unhappy that this instead just ended up doing a choice between "jump to the unrolled loop, or use 'rep movsb' directly". Let's see if somebody finds a case where the kernel memory copies also care (see commit 68674f94: "x86: don't use REP_GOOD or ERMS for small memory copies"). But Eric does argue that the user copies are special because networking tries to copy up to 32KB at a time, if order-3 pages allocations are possible. In-kernel memory copies are typically small, unless they are the special "copy pages at a time" kind that still use "rep movs".

Merge tag 'ffa-fixes-6.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sudeep.holla/linux into arm/fixes Arm FF-A fixes for v6.4 Quite a few fixes to address set of assorted issues: 1. NULL pointer dereference if the ffa driver doesn't provide remove() callback as it is currently executed unconditionally 2.

It turns out that udev under certain circumstances will concurrently try to load the same modules over-and-over excessively. This isn't a kernel bug, but it ends up affecting the kernel, to the point that under certain circumstances we can fail to boot, because the kernel uses a lot of memory to read all the module data all at once. Note that it isn't a memory leak, it's just basically a thundering herd problem happening at bootup with a lot of CPUs, with the worst cases then being pretty bad. Admittedly the worst situations are somewhat contrived: lots and lots of CPUs, not a lot of memory, and KASAN enabled to make it all slower and as such (unintentionally) exacerbate the problem. Luis explains: [1] "My best assessment of the situation is that each CPU in udev ends up triggering a load of duplicate set of modules, not just one, but *a lot*. Not sure what heuristics udev uses to load a set of modules per CPU." Petr Pavlu chimes in: [2] "My understanding is that udev workers are forked. An initial kmod context is created by the main udevd process but no sharing happens after the fork. It means that the mentioned memory pool logic doesn't really kick in. Multiple parallel load requests come from multiple udev workers, for instance, each handling an udev event for one CPU device and making the exactly same requests as all others are doing at the same time. The optimization idea would be to recognize these duplicate requests at the udevd/kmod level and converge them" Note that module loading has tried to mitigate this issue before, see for example commit 064f4536 ("module: avoid allocation if module is already present and ready"), which has a few ASCII graphs on memory use due to this same issue. However, while that noticed that the module was already loaded, and exited with an error early before spending any more time on setting up the module, it didn't handle the case of multiple concurrent module loads all being active - but not complete - at the same time. Yes, one of them will eventually win the race and finalize its copy, and the others will then notice that the module already exists and error out, but while this all happens, we have tons of unnecessary concurrent work being done. Again, the real fix is for udev to not do that (maybe it should use threads instead of fork, and have actual shared data structures and not cause duplicate work). That real fix is apparently not trivial. But it turns out that the kernel already has a pretty good model for dealing with concurrent access to the same file: the i_writecount of the inode. In fact, the module loading already indirectly uses 'i_writecount' , because 'kernel_file_read()' will in fact do ret = deny_write_access(file); if (ret) return ret; ... allow_write_access(file); around the read of the file data. We do not allow concurrent writes to the file, and return -ETXTBUSY if the file was open for writing at the same time as the module data is loaded from it. And the solution to the reader concurrency problem is to simply extend this "no concurrent writers" logic to simply be "exclusive access". Note that "exclusive" in this context isn't really some absolute thing: it's only exclusion from writers and from other "special readers" that do this writer denial. So we simply introduce a variation of that "deny_write_access()" logic that not only denies write access, but also requires that this is the _only_ such access that denies write access. Which means that you can't start loading a module that is already being loaded as a module by somebody else, or you will get the same -ETXTBSY error that you would get if there were writers around. [ It also means that you can't try to load a currently executing executable as a module, for the same reason: executables do that same "deny_write_access()" thing, and that's obviously where the whole ETXTBSY logic traditionally came from. This is not a problem for kernel modules, since the set of normal executable files and kernel module files is entirely disjoint. ] This new function is called "exclusive_deny_write_access()", and the implementation is trivial, in that it's just an atomic decrement of i_writecount if it was 0 before. To use that new exclusivity check, all we then do is wrap the module loading with that exclusive_deny_write_access()() / allow_write_access() pair. The actual patch is a bit bigger than that, because we want to surround not just the "load file data" part, but the whole module setup, to get maximum exclusion. So this ends up splitting up "finit_module()" into a few helper functions to make it all very clear and legible. In Luis' test-case (bringing up 255 vcpu's in a virtual machine [3]), the "wasted vmalloc" space (ie module data read into a vmalloc'ed area in order to be loaded as a module, but then discarded because somebody else loaded the same module instead) dropped from 1.8GiB to 474kB. Yes, that's gigabytes to kilobytes. It doesn't drop completely to zero, because even with this change, you can still end up having completely serial pointless module loads, where one udev process has loaded a module fully (and thus the kernel has released that exclusive lock on the module file), and then another udev process tries to load the same module again. So while we cannot fully get rid of the fundamental bug in user space, we _can_ get rid of the excessive concurrent thundering herd effect. A couple of final side notes on this all: - This tweak only affects the "finit_module()" system call, which gives the kernel a file descriptor with the module data. You can also just feed the module data as raw data from user space with "init_module()" (note the lack of 'f' at the beginning), and obviously for that case we do _not_ have any "exclusive read" logic. So if you absolutely want to do things wrong in user space, and try to load the same module multiple times, and error out only later when the kernel ends up saying "you can't load the same module name twice", you can still do that. And in fact, some distros will do exactly that, because they will uncompress the kernel module data in user space before feeding it to the kernel (mainly because they haven't started using the new kernel side decompression yet). So this is not some absolute "you can't do concurrent loads of the same module". It's literally just a very simple heuristic that will catch it early in case you try to load the exact same module file at the same time, and in that case avoid a potentially nasty situation. - There is another user of "deny_write_access()": the verity code that enables fs-verity on a file (the FS_IOC_ENABLE_VERITY ioctl). If you use fs-verity and you care about verifying the kernel modules (which does make sense), you should do it *before* loading said kernel module. That may sound obvious, but now the implementation basically requires it. Because if you try to do it concurrently, the kernel may refuse to load the module file that is being set up by the fs-verity code. - This all will obviously mean that if you insist on loading the same module in parallel, only one module load will succeed, and the others will return with an error. That was true before too, but what is different is that the -ETXTBSY error can be returned *before* the success case of another process fully loading and instantiating the module. Again, that might sound obvious, and it is indeed the whole point of the whole change: we are much quicker to notice the whole "you're already in the process of loading this module". So it's very much intentional, but it does mean that if you just spray the kernel with "finit_module()", and expect that the module is immediately loaded afterwards without checking the return value, you are doing something horribly horribly wrong. I'd like to say that that would never happen, but the whole _reason_ for this commit is that udev is currently doing something horribly horribly wrong, so ...

Pull vfs fixes from Christian Brauner: - During the acl rework we merged this cycle the generic_listxattr() helper had to be modified in a way that in principle it would allow for POSIX ACLs to be reported. At least that was the impression we had initially. Because before the acl rework POSIX ACLs would be reported if the filesystem did have POSIX ACL xattr handlers in sb->s_xattr. That logic changed and now we can simply check whether the superblock has SB_POSIXACL set and if the inode has inode->i_{default_}acl set report the appropriate POSIX ACL name. However, we didn't realize that generic_listxattr() was only ever used by two filesystems. Both of them don't support POSIX ACLs via sb->s_xattr handlers and so never reported POSIX ACLs via generic_listxattr() even if they raised SB_POSIXACL and did contain inodes which had acls set. The example here is nfs4. As a result, generic_listxattr() suddenly started reporting POSIX ACLs when it wouldn't have before. Since SB_POSIXACL implies that the umask isn't stripped in the VFS nfs4 can't just drop SB_POSIXACL from the superblock as it would also alter umask handling for them. So just have generic_listxattr() not report POSIX ACLs as it never did anyway. It's documented as such. - Our SB_* flags currently use a signed integer and we shift the last bit causing UBSAN to complain about undefined behavior. Switch to using unsigned. While the original patch used an explicit unsigned bitshift it's now pretty common to rely on the BIT() macro in a lot of headers nowadays. So the patch has been adjusted to use that. - Add Namjae as ntfs reviewer. They're already active this cycle so let's make it explicit right now. * tag 'vfs/v6.4-rc3/misc.fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: ntfs: Add myself as a reviewer fs: don't call posix_acl_listxattr in generic_listxattr fs: fix undefined behavior in bit shift for SB_NOUSER
