While adding LASI support to QEMU, I noticed that the QEMU detection in the kernel happens much too late. For example, when a LASI chip is found by the kernel, it registers the LASI LED driver as well. But when we run on QEMU it makes sense to avoid spending unnecessary CPU cycles, so we need to access the running_on_QEMU flag earlier than before. This patch now makes the QEMU detection the fist task of the Linux kernel by moving it to where the kernel enters the C-coding.

fs: stream_open - opener for stream-like files so that read and write can run simultaneously without deadlock Commit 9c225f26 ("vfs: atomic f_pos accesses as per POSIX") added locking for file.f_pos access and in particular made concurrent read and write not possible - now both those functions take f_pos lock for the whole run, and so if e.g. a read is blocked waiting for data, write will deadlock waiting for that read to complete. This caused regression for stream-like files where previously read and write could run simultaneously, but after that patch could not do so anymore. See e.g. commit 581d21a2 ("xenbus: fix deadlock on writes to /proc/xen/xenbus") which fixes such regression for particular case of /proc/xen/xenbus. The patch that added f_pos lock in 2014 did so to guarantee POSIX thread safety for read/write/lseek and added the locking to file descriptors of all regular files. In 2014 that thread-safety problem was not new as it was already discussed earlier in 2006. However even though 2006'th version of Linus's patch was adding f_pos locking "only for files that are marked seekable with FMODE_LSEEK (thus avoiding the stream-like objects like pipes and sockets)", the 2014 version - the one that actually made it into the tree as 9c225f26 - is doing so irregardless of whether a file is seekable or not. See https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/53022DB1.4070805@gmail.com/ https://lwn.net/Articles/180387 https://lwn.net/Articles/180396 for historic context. The reason that it did so is, probably, that there are many files that are marked non-seekable, but e.g. their read implementation actually depends on knowing current position to correctly handle the read. Some examples: kernel/power/user.c snapshot_read fs/debugfs/file.c u32_array_read fs/fuse/control.c fuse_conn_waiting_read + ... drivers/hwmon/asus_atk0110.c atk_debugfs_ggrp_read arch/s390/hypfs/inode.c hypfs_read_iter ... Despite that, many nonseekable_open users implement read and write with pure stream semantics - they don't depend on passed ppos at all. And for those cases where read could wait for something inside, it creates a situation similar to xenbus - the write could be never made to go until read is done, and read is waiting for some, potentially external, event, for potentially unbounded time -> deadlock. Besides xenbus, there are 14 such places in the kernel that I've found with semantic patch (see below): drivers/xen/evtchn.c:667:8-24: ERROR: evtchn_fops: .read() can deadlock .write() drivers/isdn/capi/capi.c:963:8-24: ERROR: capi_fops: .read() can deadlock .write() drivers/input/evdev.c:527:1-17: ERROR: evdev_fops: .read() can deadlock .write() drivers/char/pcmcia/cm4000_cs.c:1685:7-23: ERROR: cm4000_fops: .read() can deadlock .write() net/rfkill/core.c:1146:8-24: ERROR: rfkill_fops: .read() can deadlock .write() drivers/s390/char/fs3270.c:488:1-17: ERROR: fs3270_fops: .read() can deadlock .write() drivers/usb/misc/ldusb.c:310:1-17: ERROR: ld_usb_fops: .read() can deadlock .write() drivers/hid/uhid.c:635:1-17: ERROR: uhid_fops: .read() can deadlock .write() net/batman-adv/icmp_socket.c:80:1-17: ERROR: batadv_fops: .read() can deadlock .write() drivers/media/rc/lirc_dev.c:198:1-17: ERROR: lirc_fops: .read() can deadlock .write() drivers/leds/uleds.c:77:1-17: ERROR: uleds_fops: .read() can deadlock .write() drivers/input/misc/uinput.c:400:1-17: ERROR: uinput_fops: .read() can deadlock .write() drivers/infiniband/core/user_mad.c:985:7-23: ERROR: umad_fops: .read() can deadlock .write() drivers/gnss/core.c:45:1-17: ERROR: gnss_fops: .read() can deadlock .write() In addition to the cases above another regression caused by f_pos locking is that now FUSE filesystems that implement open with FOPEN_NONSEEKABLE flag, can no longer implement bidirectional stream-like files - for the same reason as above e.g. read can deadlock write locking on file.f_pos in the kernel. FUSE's FOPEN_NONSEEKABLE was added in 2008 in a7c1b990 ("fuse: implement nonseekable open") to support OSSPD. OSSPD implements /dev/dsp in userspace with FOPEN_NONSEEKABLE flag, with corresponding read and write routines not depending on current position at all, and with both read and write being potentially blocking operations: See https://github.com/libfuse/osspd https://lwn.net/Articles/308445 https://github.com/libfuse/osspd/blob/14a9cff0/osspd.c#L1406 https://github.com/libfuse/osspd/blob/14a9cff0/osspd.c#L1438-L1477 https://github.com/libfuse/osspd/blob/14a9cff0/osspd.c#L1479-L1510 Corresponding libfuse example/test also describes FOPEN_NONSEEKABLE as "somewhat pipe-like files ..." with read handler not using offset. However that test implements only read without write and cannot exercise the deadlock scenario: https://github.com/libfuse/libfuse/blob/fuse-3.4.2-3-ga1bff7d/example/poll.c#L124-L131 https://github.com/libfuse/libfuse/blob/fuse-3.4.2-3-ga1bff7d/example/poll.c#L146-L163 https://github.com/libfuse/libfuse/blob/fuse-3.4.2-3-ga1bff7d/example/poll.c#L209-L216 I've actually hit the read vs write deadlock for real while implementing my FUSE filesystem where there is /head/watch file, for which open creates separate bidirectional socket-like stream in between filesystem and its user with both read and write being later performed simultaneously. And there it is semantically not easy to split the stream into two separate read-only and write-only channels: https://lab.nexedi.com/kirr/wendelin.core/blob/f13aa600/wcfs/wcfs.go#L88-169 Let's fix this regression. The plan is: 1. We can't change nonseekable_open to include &~FMODE_ATOMIC_POS - doing so would break many in-kernel nonseekable_open users which actually use ppos in read/write handlers. 2. Add stream_open() to kernel to open stream-like non-seekable file descriptors. Read and write on such file descriptors would never use nor change ppos. And with that property on stream-like files read and write will be running without taking f_pos lock - i.e. read and write could be running simultaneously. 3. With semantic patch search and convert to stream_open all in-kernel nonseekable_open users for which read and write actually do not depend on ppos and where there is no other methods in file_operations which assume @offset access. 4. Add FOPEN_STREAM to fs/fuse/ and open in-kernel file-descriptors via steam_open if that bit is present in filesystem open reply. It was tempting to change fs/fuse/ open handler to use stream_open instead of nonseekable_open on just FOPEN_NONSEEKABLE flags, but grepping through Debian codesearch shows users of FOPEN_NONSEEKABLE, and in particular GVFS which actually uses offset in its read and write handlers https://codesearch.debian.net/search?q=-%3Enonseekable+%3D https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gvfs/blob/1.40.0-6-gcbc54396/client/gvfsfusedaemon.c#L1080 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gvfs/blob/1.40.0-6-gcbc54396/client/gvfsfusedaemon.c#L1247-1346 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gvfs/blob/1.40.0-6-gcbc54396/client/gvfsfusedaemon.c#L1399-1481 so if we would do such a change it will break a real user. 5. Add stream_open and FOPEN_STREAM handling to stable kernels starting from v3.14+ (the kernel where 9c225f26 first appeared). This will allow to patch OSSPD and other FUSE filesystems that provide stream-like files to return FOPEN_STREAM | FOPEN_NONSEEKABLE in their open handler and this way avoid the deadlock on all kernel versions. This should work because fs/fuse/ ignores unknown open flags returned from a filesystem and so passing FOPEN_STREAM to a kernel that is not aware of this flag cannot hurt. In turn the kernel that is not aware of FOPEN_STREAM will be < v3.14 where just FOPEN_NONSEEKABLE is sufficient to implement streams without read vs write deadlock. This patch adds stream_open, converts /proc/xen/xenbus to it and adds semantic patch to automatically locate in-kernel places that are either required to be converted due to read vs write deadlock, or that are just safe to be converted because read and write do not use ppos and there are no other funky methods in file_operations. Regarding semantic patch I've verified each generated change manually - that it is correct to convert - and each other nonseekable_open instance left - that it is either not correct to convert there, or that it is not converted due to current stream_open.cocci limitations. The script also does not convert files that should be valid to convert, but that currently have .llseek = noop_llseek or generic_file_llseek for unknown reason despite file being opened with nonseekable_open (e.g. drivers/input/mousedev.c) Cc: Michael Kerrisk <mtk.manpages@gmail.com> Cc: Yongzhi Pan <panyongzhi@gmail.com> Cc: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net> Cc: David Vrabel <david.vrabel@citrix.com> Cc: Juergen Gross <jgross@suse.com> Cc: Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu> Cc: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Kirill Tkhai <ktkhai@virtuozzo.com> Cc: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Cc: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@lip6.fr> Cc: Nikolaus Rath <Nikolaus@rath.org> Cc: Han-Wen Nienhuys <hanwen@google.com> Signed-off-by: Kirill Smelkov <kirr@nexedi.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Commit 32a5ad9c ("sysctl: handle overflow for file-max") hooked up min/max values for the file-max sysctl parameter via the .extra1 and .extra2 fields in the corresponding struct ctl_table entry.

Since commit a983b5eb ("mm: memcontrol: fix excessive complexity in memory.stat reporting") memcg dirty and writeback counters are managed as: 1) per-memcg per-cpu values in range of [-32..32] 2) per-memcg atomic counter When a per-cpu counter cannot fit in [-32..32] it's flushed to the atomic. Stat readers only check the atomic. Thus readers such as balance_dirty_pages() may see a nontrivial error margin: 32 pages per cpu. Assuming 100 cpus: 4k x86 page_size: 13 MiB error per memcg 64k ppc page_size: 200 MiB error per memcg Considering that dirty+writeback are used together for some decisions the errors double. This inaccuracy can lead to undeserved oom kills. One nasty case is when all per-cpu counters hold positive values offsetting an atomic negative value (i.e. per_cpu[*]=32, atomic=n_cpu*-32). balance_dirty_pages() only consults the atomic and does not consider throttling the next n_cpu*32 dirty pages. If the file_lru is in the 13..200 MiB range then there's absolutely no dirty throttling, which burdens vmscan with only dirty+writeback pages thus resorting to oom kill. It could be argued that tiny containers are not supported, but it's more subtle. It's the amount the space available for file lru that matters. If a container has memory.max-200MiB of non reclaimable memory, then it will also suffer such oom kills on a 100 cpu machine. The following test reliably ooms without this patch. This patch avoids oom kills. $ cat test mount -t cgroup2 none /dev/cgroup cd /dev/cgroup echo +io +memory > cgroup.subtree_control mkdir test cd test echo 10M > memory.max (echo $BASHPID > cgroup.procs && exec /memcg-writeback-stress /foo) (echo $BASHPID > cgroup.procs && exec dd if=/dev/zero of=/foo bs=2M count=100) $ cat memcg-writeback-stress.c /* * Dirty pages from all but one cpu. * Clean pages from the non dirtying cpu. * This is to stress per cpu counter imbalance. * On a 100 cpu machine: * - per memcg per cpu dirty count is 32 pages for each of 99 cpus * - per memcg atomic is -99*32 pages * - thus the complete dirty limit: sum of all counters 0 * - balance_dirty_pages() only sees atomic count -99*32 pages, which * it max()s to 0. * - So a workload can dirty -99*32 pages before balance_dirty_pages() * cares. */ #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <err.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <sched.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <sys/stat.h> #include <sys/sysinfo.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <unistd.h> static char *buf; static int bufSize; static void set_affinity(int cpu) { cpu_set_t affinity; CPU_ZERO(&affinity); CPU_SET(cpu, &affinity); if (sched_setaffinity(0, sizeof(affinity), &affinity)) err(1, "sched_setaffinity"); } static void dirty_on(int output_fd, int cpu) { int i, wrote; set_affinity(cpu); for (i = 0; i < 32; i++) { for (wrote = 0; wrote < bufSize; ) { int ret = write(output_fd, buf+wrote, bufSize-wrote); if (ret == -1) err(1, "write"); wrote += ret; } } } int main(int argc, char **argv) { int cpu, flush_cpu = 1, output_fd; const char *output; if (argc != 2) errx(1, "usage: output_file"); output = argv[1]; bufSize = getpagesize(); buf = malloc(getpagesize()); if (buf == NULL) errx(1, "malloc failed"); output_fd = open(output, O_CREAT|O_RDWR); if (output_fd == -1) err(1, "open(%s)", output); for (cpu = 0; cpu < get_nprocs(); cpu++) { if (cpu != flush_cpu) dirty_on(output_fd, cpu); } set_affinity(flush_cpu); if (fsync(output_fd)) err(1, "fsync(%s)", output); if (close(output_fd)) err(1, "close(%s)", output); free(buf); } Make balance_dirty_pages() and wb_over_bg_thresh() work harder to collect exact per memcg counters. This avoids the aforementioned oom kills. This does not affect the overhead of memory.stat, which still reads the single atomic counter. Why not use percpu_counter? memcg already handles cpus going offline, so no need for that overhead from percpu_counter. And the percpu_counter spinlocks are more heavyweight than is required. It probably also makes sense to use exact dirty and writeback counters in memcg oom reports. But that is saved for later.

With some architectures like ppc64, set_pmd_at() cannot cope with a situation where there is already some (different) valid entry present. Use pmdp_set_access_flags() instead to modify the pfn which is built to deal with modifying existing PMD entries. This is similar to commit cae85cb8 ("mm/memory.c: fix modifying of page protection by insert_pfn()") We also do similar update w.r.t insert_pfn_pud eventhough ppc64 don't support pud pfn entries now.

When mknod is used to create a block special file in hugetlbfs, it will allocate an inode and kmalloc a 'struct resv_map' via resv_map_alloc(). inode->i_mapping->private_data will point the newly allocated resv_map. However, when the device special file is opened bd_acquire() will set inode->i_mapping to bd_inode->i_mapping. Thus the pointer to the allocated resv_map is lost and the structure is leaked. Programs to reproduce: mount -t hugetlbfs nodev hugetlbfs mknod hugetlbfs/dev b 0 0 exec 30<> hugetlbfs/dev umount hugetlbfs/ resv_map structures are only needed for inodes which can have associated page allocations. To fix the leak, only allocate resv_map for those inodes which could possibly be associated with page allocations.

The obvious fix is to rename one of the variables, so this adds an extra '_'. It seems we got away with this because - there are only a few drivers using bitrev macros - usually there are no constant arguments to those - when they are constant, they tend to be either 0 or (unsigned)-1 (drivers/isdn/i4l/isdnhdlc.o, drivers/iio/amplifiers/ad8366.c) and give the correct result by pure chance. In fact, the only driver that I could find that gets different results with this is drivers/net/wan/slic_ds26522.c, which in turn is a driver for fairly rare hardware (adding the maintainer to Cc for testing).

A recent optimization in Clang (r355672) lowers comparisons of the return value of memcmp against zero to comparisons of the return value of bcmp against zero. This helps some platforms that implement bcmp more efficiently than memcmp. glibc simply aliases bcmp to memcmp, but an optimized implementation is in the works. This results in linkage failures for all targets with Clang due to the undefined symbol. For now, just implement bcmp as a tailcail to memcmp to unbreak the build. This routine can be further optimized in the future. Other ideas discussed: * A weak alias was discussed, but breaks for architectures that define their own implementations of memcmp since aliases to declarations are not permitted (only definitions). Arch-specific memcmp implementations typically declare memcmp in C headers, but implement them in assembly. * -ffreestanding also is used sporadically throughout the kernel. * -fno-builtin-bcmp doesn't work when doing LTO.

Pull syscall-get-arguments cleanup and fixes from Steven Rostedt: "Andy Lutomirski approached me to tell me that the syscall_get_arguments() implementation in x86 was horrible and gcc certainly gets it wrong. He said that since the tracepoints only pass in 0 and 6 for i and n repectively, it should be optimized for that case. Inspecting the kernel, I discovered that all users pass in 0 for i and only one file passing in something other than 6 for the number of arguments. That code happens to be my own code used for the special syscall tracing. That can easily be converted to just using 0 and 6 as well, and only copying what is needed. Which is probably the faster path anyway for that case. Along the way, a couple of real fixes came from this as the syscall_get_arguments() function was incorrect for csky and riscv. x86 has been optimized to for the new interface that removes the variable number of arguments, but the other architectures could still use some loving and take more advantage of the simpler interface" * tag 'trace-5.1-rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: syscalls: Remove start and number from syscall_set_arguments() args syscalls: Remove start and number from syscall_get_arguments() args csky: Fix syscall_get_arguments() and syscall_set_arguments() riscv: Fix syscall_get_arguments() and syscall_set_arguments() tracing/syscalls: Pass in hardcoded 6 into syscall_get_arguments() ptrace: Remove maxargs from task_current_syscall()

dm-integrity will deadlock if overlapping I/O is issued to it, the bug was introduced by commit 724376a0 ("dm integrity: implement fair range locks"). Users rarely use overlapping I/O so this bug went undetected until now. Fix this bug by correcting, likely cut-n-paste, typos in ranges_overlap() and also remove a flawed ranges_overlap() check in remove_range_unlocked().

Referring to the "VIRTUALIZING MSR-BASED APIC ACCESSES" chapter of the SDM, when "virtualize x2APIC mode" is 1 and "APIC-register virtualization" is 0, a RDMSR of 808H should return the VTPR from the virtual APIC page. However, for nested, KVM currently fails to disable the read intercept for this MSR. This means that a RDMSR exit takes precedence over "virtualize x2APIC mode", and KVM passes through L1's TPR to L2, instead of sourcing the value from L2's virtual APIC page. This patch fixes the issue by disabling the read intercept, in VMCS02, for the VTPR when "APIC-register virtualization" is 0. The issue described above and fix prescribed here, were verified with a related patch in kvm-unit-tests titled "Test VMX's virtualize x2APIC mode w/ nested".

The nested_vmx_prepare_msr_bitmap() function doesn't directly guard the x2APIC MSR intercepts with the "virtualize x2APIC mode" MSR. As a result, we discovered the potential for a buggy or malicious L1 to get access to L0's x2APIC MSRs, via an L2, as follows. 1. L1 executes WRMSR(IA32_SPEC_CTRL, 1). This causes the spec_ctrl variable, in nested_vmx_prepare_msr_bitmap() to become true. 2. L1 disables "virtualize x2APIC mode" in VMCS12. 3. L1 enables "APIC-register virtualization" in VMCS12. Now, KVM will set VMCS02's x2APIC MSR intercepts from VMCS12, and then set "virtualize x2APIC mode" to 0 in VMCS02. Oops. This patch closes the leak by explicitly guarding VMCS02's x2APIC MSR intercepts with VMCS12's "virtualize x2APIC mode" control. The scenario outlined above and fix prescribed here, were verified with a related patch in kvm-unit-tests titled "Add leak scenario to virt_x2apic_mode_test".

The n_r3964 line discipline driver was written in a different time, when SMP machines were rare, and users were trusted to do the right thing. Since then, the world has moved on but not this code, it has stayed rooted in the past with its lovely hand-crafted list structures and loads of "interesting" race conditions all over the place. After attempting to clean up most of the issues, I just gave up and am now marking the driver as BROKEN so that hopefully someone who has this hardware will show up out of the woodwork (I know you are out there!) and will help with debugging a raft of changes that I had laying around for the code, but was too afraid to commit as odds are they would break things. Many thanks to Jann and Linus for pointing out the initial problems in this codebase, as well as many reviews of my attempts to fix the issues.

At Linux Plumbers, Andy Lutomirski approached me and pointed out that the function call syscall_get_arguments() implemented in x86 was horribly written and not optimized for the standard case of passing in 0 and 6 for the starting index and the number of system calls to get. When looking at all the users of this function, I discovered that all instances pass in only 0 and 6 for these arguments. Instead of having this function handle different cases that are never used, simply rewrite it to return the first 6 arguments of a system call. This should help out the performance of tracing system calls by ptrace, ftrace and perf.
