When the process exit races with outstanding mcopy_atomic, it would be better to return ESRCH error. When such race occurs the process and it's mm are going away and returning "no such process" to the uffd monitor seems better fit than ENOSPC.

comp_algorithm_store() passes the size of the source buffer to strlcpy() instead of the destination buffer size. Make it explicit that the two buffers have the same size and use strcpy() instead of strlcpy(). The latter can be done safely since the function ensures that the string in the source buffer is terminated. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170803163350.45245-1-mka@chromium.orgSigned-off-by:

However, a parallel shmem_setattr() could access one of these entries directly and add it back to the global shrinklist if it is removed, with the spinlock held. The logic itself looks solid since an entry could be either in a local list or the global list, otherwise it is removed from one of them by list_del_init(). So probably the race condition is that, one CPU is in the middle of INIT_LIST_HEAD() but the other CPU calls list_empty() which returns true too early then the following list_add_tail() sees a corrupted entry. list_empty_careful() is designed to fix this situation.

Revert commit bb01b64c ("mm/balloon_compaction.c: enqueue zero page to balloon device")' Zeroing ballon pages is rather time consuming, especially when a lot of pages are in flight. E.g. 7GB worth of ballooned memory takes 2.8s with __GFP_ZERO while it takes ~491ms without it. The original commit argued that zeroing will help ksmd to merge these pages on the host but this argument is assuming that the host actually marks balloon pages for ksm which is not universally true. So we pay performance penalty for something that even might not be used in the end which is wrong. The host can zero out pages on its own when there is a need.

Nadav reported KSM can corrupt the user data by the TLB batching race[1]. That means data user written can be lost. Quote from Nadav Amit: "For this race we need 4 CPUs: CPU0: Caches a writable and dirty PTE entry, and uses the stale value for write later. CPU1: Runs madvise_free on the range that includes the PTE. It would clear the dirty-bit. It batches TLB flushes. CPU2: Writes 4 to /proc/PID/clear_refs , clearing the PTEs soft-dirty. We care about the fact that it clears the PTE write-bit, and of course, batches TLB flushes. CPU3: Runs KSM. Our purpose is to pass the following test in write_protect_page(): if (pte_write(*pvmw.pte) || pte_dirty(*pvmw.pte) || (pte_protnone(*pvmw.pte) && pte_savedwrite(*pvmw.pte))) Since it will avoid TLB flush. And we want to do it while the PTE is stale. Later, and before replacing the page, we would be able to change the page. Note that all the operations the CPU1-3 perform canhappen in parallel since they only acquire mmap_sem for read. We start with two identical pages. Everything below regards the same page/PTE. CPU0 CPU1 CPU2 CPU3 ---- ---- ---- ---- Write the same value on page [cache PTE as dirty in TLB] MADV_FREE pte_mkclean() 4 > clear_refs pte_wrprotect() write_protect_page() [ success, no flush ] pages_indentical() [ ok ] Write to page different value [Ok, using stale PTE] replace_page() Later, CPU1, CPU2 and CPU3 would flush the TLB, but that is too late. CPU0 already wrote on the page, but KSM ignored this write, and it got lost" In above scenario, MADV_FREE is fixed by changing TLB batching API including [set|clear]_tlb_flush_pending. Remained thing is soft-dirty part. This patch changes soft-dirty uses TLB batching API instead of flush_tlb_mm and KSM checks pending TLB flush by using mm_tlb_flush_pending so that it will flush TLB to avoid data lost if there are other parallel threads pending TLB flush.

Nadav reported parallel MADV_DONTNEED on same range has a stale TLB problem and Mel fixed it[1] and found same problem on MADV_FREE[2]. Quote from Mel Gorman: "The race in question is CPU 0 running madv_free and updating some PTEs while CPU 1 is also running madv_free and looking at the same PTEs. CPU 1 may have writable TLB entries for a page but fail the pte_dirty check (because CPU 0 has updated it already) and potentially fail to flush. Hence, when madv_free on CPU 1 returns, there are still potentially writable TLB entries and the underlying PTE is still present so that a subsequent write does not necessarily propagate the dirty bit to the underlying PTE any more. Reclaim at some unknown time at the future may then see that the PTE is still clean and discard the page even though a write has happened in the meantime. I think this is possible but I could have missed some protection in madv_free that prevents it happening." This patch aims for solving both problems all at once and is ready for other problem with KSM, MADV_FREE and soft-dirty story[3]. TLB batch API(tlb_[gather|finish]_mmu] uses [inc|dec]_tlb_flush_pending and mmu_tlb_flush_pending so that when tlb_finish_mmu is called, we can catch there are parallel threads going on. In that case, forcefully, flush TLB to prevent for user to access memory via stale TLB entry although it fail to gather page table entry. I confirmed this patch works with [4] test program Nadav gave so this patch supersedes "mm: Always flush VMA ranges affected by zap_page_range v2" in current mmotm. NOTE: This patch modifies arch-specific TLB gathering interface(x86, ia64, s390, sh, um). It seems most of architecture are straightforward but s390 need to be careful because tlb_flush_mmu works only if mm->context.flush_mm is set to non-zero which happens only a pte entry really is cleared by ptep_get_and_clear and friends. However, this problem never changes the pte entries but need to flush to prevent memory access from stale tlb.

This patch is a preparatory patch for solving race problems caused by TLB batch. For that, we will increase/decrease TLB flush pending count of mm_struct whenever tlb_[gather|finish]_mmu is called. Before making it simple, this patch separates architecture specific part and rename it to arch_tlb_[gather|finish]_mmu and generic part just calls it. It shouldn't change any behavior.

While deferring TLB flushes is a good practice, the reverted patch caused pending TLB flushes to be checked while the page-table lock is not taken. As a result, in architectures with weak memory model (PPC), Linux may miss a memory-barrier, miss the fact TLB flushes are pending, and cause (in theory) a memory corruption. Since the alternative of using smp_mb__after_unlock_lock() was considered a bit open-coded, and the performance impact is expected to be small, the previous patch is reverted. This reverts b0943d61 ("mm: numa: defer TLB flush for THP migration as long as possible"). Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170802000818.4760-4-namit@vmware.comSigned-off-by:

Reading tlb_flush_pending while the page-table lock is taken does not require a barrier, since the lock/unlock already acts as a barrier. Removing the barrier in mm_tlb_flush_pending() to address this issue. However, migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page() calls mm_tlb_flush_pending() while the page-table lock is already released, which may present a problem on architectures with weak memory model (PPC). To deal with this case, a new parameter is added to mm_tlb_flush_pending() to indicate if it is read without the page-table lock taken, and calling smp_mb__after_unlock_lock() in this case.

Patch series "fixes of TLB batching races", v6. It turns out that Linux TLB batching mechanism suffers from various races. Races that are caused due to batching during reclamation were recently handled by Mel and this patch-set deals with others. The more fundamental issue is that concurrent updates of the page-tables allow for TLB flushes to be batched on one core, while another core changes the page-tables. This other core may assume a PTE change does not require a flush based on the updated PTE value, while it is unaware that TLB flushes are still pending. This behavior affects KSM (which may result in memory corruption) and MADV_FREE and MADV_DONTNEED (which may result in incorrect behavior). A proof-of-concept can easily produce the wrong behavior of MADV_DONTNEED. Memory corruption in KSM is harder to produce in practice, but was observed by hacking the kernel and adding a delay before flushing and replacing the KSM page. Finally, there is also one memory barrier missing, which may affect architectures with weak memory model. This patch (of 7): Setting and clearing mm->tlb_flush_pending can be performed by multiple threads, since mmap_sem may only be acquired for read in task_numa_work(). If this happens, tlb_flush_pending might be cleared while one of the threads still changes PTEs and batches TLB flushes. This can lead to the same race between migration and change_protection_range() that led to the introduction of tlb_flush_pending. The result of this race was data corruption, which means that this patch also addresses a theoretically possible data corruption. An actual data corruption was not observed, yet the race was was confirmed by adding assertion to check tlb_flush_pending is not set by two threads, adding artificial latency in change_protection_range() and using sysctl to reduce kernel.numa_balancing_scan_delay_ms.

Parsing with kstrtol() enables values to be negative, and we failed to check for negative values when parsing with test_dev_config_update_uint_sync() or test_dev_config_update_uint_range(). test_dev_config_update_uint_range() has a minimum check though so an issue is not present there. test_dev_config_update_uint_sync() is only used for the number of threads to use (config_num_threads_store()), and indeed this would fail with an attempt for a large allocation. Although the issue is only present in practice with the first fix both by using kstrtoul() instead of kstrtol().

The RDMA subsystem can generate several thousand of these messages per second eventually leading to a kernel crash. Ratelimit these messages to prevent this crash. Doug said: "I've been carrying a version of this for several kernel versions. I don't remember when they started, but we have one (and only one) class of machines: Dell PE R730xd, that generate these errors. When it happens, without a rate limit, we get rcu timeouts and kernel oopses. With the rate limit, we just get a lot of annoying kernel messages but the machine continues on, recovers, and eventually the memory operations all succeed" And: "> Well... why are all these EBUSY's occurring? It sounds inefficient > (at least) but if it is expected, normal and unavoidable then > perhaps we should just remove that message altogether? I don't have an answer to that question. To be honest, I haven't looked real hard. We never had this at all, then it started out of the blue, but only on our Dell 730xd machines (and it hits all of them), but no other classes or brands of machines. And we have our 730xd machines loaded up with different brands and models of cards (for instance one dedicated to mlx4 hardware, one for qib, one for mlx5, an ocrdma/cxgb4 combo, etc), so the fact that it hit all of the machines meant it wasn't tied to any particular brand/model of RDMA hardware. To me, it always smelled of a hardware oddity specific to maybe the CPUs or mainboard chipsets in these machines, so given that I'm not an mm expert anyway, I never chased it down. A few other relevant details: it showed up somewhere around 4.8/4.9 or thereabouts. It never happened before, but the prinkt has been there since the 3.18 days, so possibly the test to trigger this message was changed, or something else in the allocator changed such that the situation started happening on these machines? And, like I said, it is specific to our 730xd machines (but they are all identical, so that could mean it's something like their specific ram configuration is causing the allocator to hit this on these machine but not on other machines in the cluster, I don't want to say it's necessarily the model of chipset or CPU, there are other bits of identicalness between these machines)" Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/499c0f6cc10d6eb829a67f2a4d75b4228a9b356e.1501695897.git.jtoppins@redhat.comSigned-off-by:

As Tetsuo points out: "Commit 385386cf ("mm: vmstat: move slab statistics from zone to node counters") broke "Slab:" field of /proc/meminfo . It shows nearly 0kB" In addition to /proc/meminfo, this problem also affects the slab counters OOM/allocation failure info dumps, can cause early -ENOMEM from overcommit protection, and miscalculate image size requirements during suspend-to-disk. This is because the patch in question switched the slab counters from the zone level to the node level, but forgot to update the global accessor functions to read the aggregate node data instead of the aggregate zone data. Use global_node_page_state() to access the global slab counters.

When iteratively building a UDP datagram with MSG_MORE and that datagram exceeds MTU, consistently choose UFO or fragmentation. Once skb_is_gso, always apply ufo. Conversely, once a datagram is split across multiple skbs, do not consider ufo. Sendpage already maintains the first invariant, only add the second. IPv6 does not have a sendpage implementation to modify. A gso skb must have a partial checksum, do not follow sk_no_check_tx in udp_send_skb. Found by syzkaller.

Commit 55917a21 ("netfilter: x_tables: add context to know if extension runs from nft_compat") introduced a member nft_compat to xt_tgchk_param structure. But it didn't set it's value for ipt_init_target. With unexpected value in par.nft_compat, it may return unexpected result in some target's checkentry. This patch is to set all it's fields as 0 and only initialize the non-zero fields in ipt_init_target. v1->v2: As Wang Cong's suggestion, fix it by setting all it's fields as 0 and only initializing the non-zero fields.

Commit dcd87999 ("igmp: net: Move igmp namespace init to correct file") moved the igmp sysctls initialization from tcp_sk_init to igmp_net_init. This function is only called as part of per-namespace initialization, only if CONFIG_IP_MULTICAST is defined, otherwise igmp_mc_init() call in ip_init is compiled out, casuing the igmp pernet ops to not be registerd and those sysctl being left initialized with 0. However, there are certain functions, such as ip_mc_join_group which are always compiled and make use of some of those sysctls. Let's do a partial revert of the aforementioned commit and move the sysctl initialization into inet_init_net, that way they will always have sane values.

When a link between two nodes come up, both endpoints will initially send out a STATE message to the peer, to increase the probability that the peer endpoint also is up when the first traffic message arrives. Thereafter, if the establishing link is the second link between two nodes, this first "traffic" message is a TUNNEL_PROTOCOL/SYNCH message, helping the peer to perform initial synchronization between the two links. However, the initial STATE message may be lost, in which case the SYNCH message will be the first one arriving at the peer. This should also work, as the SYNCH message itself will be used to take up the link endpoint before initializing synchronization. Unfortunately the code for this case is broken. Currently, the link is brought up through a tipc_link_fsm_evt(ESTABLISHED) when a SYNCH arrives, whereupon __tipc_node_link_up() is called to distribute the link slots and take the link into traffic. But, __tipc_node_link_up() is itself starting with a test for whether the link is up, and if true, returns without action. Clearly, the tipc_link_fsm_evt(ESTABLISHED) call is unnecessary, since tipc_node_link_up() is itself issuing such an event, but also harmful, since it inhibits tipc_node_link_up() to perform the test of its tasks, and the link endpoint in question hence is never taken into traffic. This problem has been exposed when we set up dual links between pre- and post-4.4 kernels, because the former ones don't send out the initial STATE message described above. We fix this by removing the unnecessary event call. Signed-off-by:

Using mpgroup to define multiple paths for a virtual disk causes multiple virtual-device-port ports to be created for that virtual device. Each virtual-device-port port then gets a vdisk created for it by the Linux sunvdc driver. As mpgroup is not supported by the Linux sunvdc driver it cannot handle multiple ports for a single vdisk, leading to a kernel panic at startup. This fix prevents more than one vdisk per virtual-device-port being created until full virtual disk multipathing (mpgroup) support is implemented. Signed-off-by:

Commit 65d8fc77 ("futex: Remove requirement for lock_page() in get_futex_key()") removed an unnecessary lock_page() with the side-effect that page->mapping needed to be treated very carefully. Two defensive warnings were added in case any assumption was missed and the first warning assumed a correct application would not alter a mapping backing a futex key. Since merging, it has not triggered for any unexpected case but Mark Rutland reported the following bug triggering due to the first warning. kernel BUG at kernel/futex.c:679! Internal error: Oops - BUG: 0 [#1] PREEMPT SMP Modules linked in: CPU: 0 PID: 3695 Comm: syz-executor1 Not tainted 4.13.0-rc3-00020-g307fec773ba3 #3 Hardware name: linux,dummy-virt (DT) task: ffff80001e271780 task.stack: ffff000010908000 PC is at get_futex_key+0x6a4/0xcf0 kernel/futex.c:679 LR is at get_futex_key+0x6a4/0xcf0 kernel/futex.c:679 pc : [<ffff00000821ac14>] lr : [<ffff00000821ac14>] pstate: 80000145 The fact that it's a bug instead of a warning was due to an unrelated arm64 problem, but the warning itself triggered because the underlying mapping changed. This is an application issue but from a kernel perspective it's a recoverable situation and the warning is unnecessary so this patch removes the warning. The warning may potentially be triggered with the following test program from Mark although it may be necessary to adjust NR_FUTEX_THREADS to be a value smaller than the number of CPUs in the system. #include <linux/futex.h> #include <pthread.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <sys/mman.h> #include <sys/syscall.h> #include <sys/time.h> #include <unistd.h> #define NR_FUTEX_THREADS 16 pthread_t threads[NR_FUTEX_THREADS]; void *mem; #define MEM_PROT (PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE) #define MEM_SIZE 65536 static int futex_wrapper(int *uaddr, int op, int val, const struct timespec *timeout, int *uaddr2, int val3) { syscall(SYS_futex, uaddr, op, val, timeout, uaddr2, val3); } void *poll_futex(void *unused) { for (;;) { futex_wrapper(mem, FUTEX_CMP_REQUEUE_PI, 1, NULL, mem + 4, 1); } } int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { int i; mem = mmap(NULL, MEM_SIZE, MEM_PROT, MAP_SHARED | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0); printf("Mapping @ %p\n", mem); printf("Creating futex threads...\n"); for (i = 0; i < NR_FUTEX_THREADS; i++) pthread_create(&threads[i], NULL, poll_futex, NULL); printf("Flipping mapping...\n"); for (;;) { mmap(mem, MEM_SIZE, MEM_PROT, MAP_FIXED | MAP_SHARED | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0); } return 0; } Reported-and-tested-by:

skb_warn_bad_offload triggers a warning when an skb enters the GSO stack at __skb_gso_segment that does not have CHECKSUM_PARTIAL checksum offload set. Commit b2504a5d ("net: reduce skb_warn_bad_offload() noise") observed that SKB_GSO_DODGY producers can trigger the check and that passing those packets through the GSO handlers will fix it up. But, the software UFO handler will set ip_summed to CHECKSUM_NONE. When __skb_gso_segment is called from the receive path, this triggers the warning again. Make UFO set CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY instead of CHECKSUM_NONE. On Tx these two are equivalent. On Rx, this better matches the skb state (checksum computed), as CHECKSUM_NONE here means no checksum computed.
