| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | only task running on a cpu This function will help an async task processing batched jobs from workqueue decide if it wants to keep processing on more chunks of batched work that can be delayed, or to accumulate more work for more efficient batched processing later. If no other tasks are running on the cpu, the batching process can take advantgae of the available cpu cycles to a make decision to continue processing the existing accumulated work to minimize delay, otherwise it will yield.

* module: Clean up ro/nx after early module load failuresAndy Lutomirski2014-08-161-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The commit 4982223e51e8 module: set nx before marking module MODULE_STATE_COMING. introduced a regression: if a module fails to parse its arguments or if mod_sysfs_setup fails, then the module's memory will be freed while still read-only. Anything that reuses that memory will crash as soon as it tries to write to it.

The biggest series, also aimed at -stable, is from Aneesh and is the result of weeks and weeks of debugging to find out why the heck or THP implementation was occasionally triggering multi-hit errors in our level 1 TLB. It ended up being a combination of issues including subtleties as to how we should invalidate those special 'MPSS' pages we use to allow the use of 16M pages inside 4K/64K "base page size" segments (you really have to love our MMU !) Another interesting one in the "OMG" category is the series from Michael adding memory barriers to spin_is_locked(). That's also the result of many days of debugging to figure out why the semaphore code would occasionally crash in ways that made no sense. It ended up being some creative lock stacking that was defeated by the fact that our locks allow a load inside the locked section to be re-ordered with the load of the lock value itself (I'm still of two mind about whether to kill that once and for all by putting a heavier barrier back into our lock implementation...).

Then attach the pin to original vfsmount. Voila - the clone will be alive until the file gets closed, making sure that underlying superblock remains active, etc., and we can drop the original vfsmount, so that it's not kept busy. If the file lives until the final mntput of the original vfsmount, we'll notice that there's an fs_pin (one in bsd_acct_struct that holds that file) and mnt_pin_kill() will take it out. Since ->kill() is synchronous, we won't proceed past that point until these files are closed (and private clones of our vfsmount are gone), so we get the same ordering warranties we used to get. mnt_pin()/mnt_unpin()/->mnt_pinned is gone now, and good riddance - it never became usable outside of kernel/acct.c (and racy wrt umount even there).

Structure lifetime is controlled by refcount now. We also have a mutex in there, held over closing and writing (the file is O_APPEND, so we are not losing any concurrency). As the result, we do not need to bother with get_file()/fput() on log write anymore. Moreover, do_acct_process() only needs acct itself; file and pidns are picked from it. Killed instances are distinguished by having NULL ->ns. Refcount is protected by acct_lock; anybody taking the mutex needs to grab a reference first.

Seeing that comp_t is a 3-bit exponent + 13-bit mantissa... it's a good thing that 0 is represented by all-bits-clear. The history of that one is interesting - it was introduced in 2.1.68pre1, when acct.c had been reworked and moved to separate file. Two months later (2.1.86) somebody has noticed that the sucker won't compile - there was no task_struct::io_usage. At which point the ac_io calculation had changed from encode_comp_t(current->io_usage) to encode_comp_t(0) and the bug in the next line (absolutely real back then, had it ever managed to compile) become a harmless bogosity. Looks like nobody has ever noticed until now. Anyway, let's bury that idiocy now that it got noticed. 17 years is long enough... Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

Both of which are rarely ever hit, and requires the user to do something that users rarely do. It took a few special test cases to even trigger this bug, and one of them was just one test in the process of finishing up as another one started. Both bugs have to do with the ring buffer iterator rb_iter_peek(), but one is more indirect than the other. The fist bug fix is simply an increase in the safety net loop counter. The counter makes sure that the rb_iter_peek() only iterates the number of times we expect it can, and no more. Well, there was one way it could iterate one more than we expected, and that caused the ring buffer to shutdown with a nasty warning. The fix was simply to up that counter by one. The other bug has to be with rb_iter_reset() (called by rb_iter_peek()). This happens when a user reads both the trace_pipe and trace files. The trace_pipe is a consuming read and does not use the ring buffer iterator, but the trace file is not a consuming read and does use the ring buffer iterator. When the trace file is being read, if it detects that a consuming read occurred, it resets the iterator and starts over. But the reset code that does this (rb_iter_reset()), checks if the reader_page is linked to the ring buffer or not, and will look into the ring buffer itself if it is not. This is wrong, as it should always try to read the reader page first. Not to mention, the code that looked into the ring buffer did it wrong, and used the header_page "read" offset to start reading on that page. That offset is bogus for pages in the writable ring buffer, and was corrupting the iterator, and it would start returning bogus events" * tag 'trace-fixes-3.16' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: ring-buffer: Always reset iterator to reader page ring-buffer: Up rb_iter_peek() loop count to 3

The reader page is owned by the reader and since it was swapped out of the ring buffer, writers do not have access to it (there's an exception to that rule, but it's out of scope for this commit). When reading the "trace" file, it is a non consuming read, which means that the data in the ring buffer will not be modified. When the trace file is opened, a ring buffer iterator is allocated and writes to the ring buffer are disabled, such that the iterator will not have issues iterating over the data. Although the ring buffer disabled writes, it does not disable other reads, or even consuming reads. If a consuming read happens, then the iterator is reset and starts reading from the beginning again.

After adding more test cases, this would trigger more often. Strangely enough, it would never trigger on a single test, but instead would trigger only when running all the tests. I believe that was the case because it required one of the tests to be shutting down via delayed instances while a new test started up. After spending several days debugging this, I found that it was caused by the iterator becoming corrupted. Debugging further, I found out why the iterator became corrupted. It happened with the rb_iter_reset(). As consuming reads may not read the full reader page, and only part of it, there's a "read" field to know where the last read took place. The iterator, must also start at the read position. In the rb_iter_reset() code, if the reader page was disconnected from the ring buffer, the iterator would start at the head page within the ring buffer (where writes still happen). But the mistake there was that it still used the "read" field to start the iterator on the head page, where it should always start at zero because readers never read from within the ring buffer where writes occur. I originally wrote a patch to have it set the iter->head to 0 instead of iter->head_page->read, but then I questioned why it wasn't always setting the iter to point to the reader page, as the reader page is still valid. The list_empty(reader_page->list) just means that it was successful in swapping out. But the reader_page may still have data. There was a bug report a long time ago that was not reproducible that had something about trace_pipe (consuming read) not matching trace (iterator read). This may explain why that happened. Anyway, the correct answer to this bug is to always use the reader page an not reset the iterator to inside the writable ring buffer.

The rb_iter_peek() is for traversing the buffer without consuming it, and as such, it can loop for one more reason. That is, if we hit the end of the reader page or any page, it will go to the next page and try again. That is, we have this: 1. iter->head > iter->head_page->page->commit (rb_inc_iter() which moves the iter to the next page) try again 2. event = rb_iter_head_event() event->type_len == RINGBUF_TYPE_TIME_EXTEND rb_advance_iter() try again 3. read the event. But we never get to 3, because the count is greater than 2 and we cause the WARNING and return NULL. Up the counter to 3.

The most significant change for users is the first patch which makes setns drmatically faster by removing unneded rcu handling. The next chunk of changes are so that "mount -o remount,.." will not allow the user namespace root to drop flags on a mount set by the system wide root. Aks this forces read-only mounts to stay read-only, no-dev mounts to stay no-dev, no-suid mounts to stay no-suid, no-exec mounts to stay no exec and it prevents unprivileged users from messing with a mounts atime settings. I have included my test case as the last patch in this series so people performing backports can verify this change works correctly. The next change fixes a bug in NFS that was discovered while auditing nsproxy users for the first optimization. Today you can oops the kernel by reading /proc/fs/nfsfs/{servers,volumes} if you are clever with pid namespaces. I rebased and fixed the build of the !CONFIG_NFS_FS case yesterday when a build bot caught my typo. Given that no one to my knowledge bases anything on my tree fixing the typo in place seems more responsible that requiring a typo-fix to be backported as well. The last change is a small semantic cleanup introducing /proc/thread-self and pointing /proc/mounts and /proc/net at it. This prevents several kinds of problemantic corner cases. It is a user-visible change so it has a minute chance of causing regressions so the change to /proc/mounts and /proc/net are individual one line commits that can be trivially reverted.

Upon inspect nsproxy no longer needs rcu protection for remote reads. remote reads are rare. So optimize for same process reads and write by switching using rask_lock instead. This yields a simpler to understand lock, and a faster setns system call. In particular this fixes a performance regression observed by Rafael David Tinoco <rafael.tinoco@canonical.com>. This is effectively a revert of Pavel Emelyanov's commit cf7b708c8d1d7a27736771bcf4c457b332b0f818 Make access to task's nsproxy lighter from 2007.

This patch calls into PE file routines to verify signature of bzImage. If signature are valid, kexec_file_load() succeeds otherwise it fails. Two new config options have been introduced. First one is CONFIG_KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG. This option enforces that kernel has to be validly signed otherwise kernel load will fail. If this option is not set, no signature verification will be done. Only exception will be when secureboot is enabled. In that case signature verification should be automatically enforced when secureboot is enabled. But that will happen when secureboot patches are merged. Second config option is CONFIG_KEXEC_BZIMAGE_VERIFY_SIG. This option enables signature verification support on bzImage. If this option is not set and previous one is set, kernel image loading will fail because kernel does not have support to verify signature of bzImage. I tested these patches with both "pesign" and "sbsign" signed bzImages. I used signing_key.priv key and signing_key.x509 cert for signing as generated during kernel build process (if module signing is enabled). Used following method to sign bzImage. pesign ====== - Convert DER format cert to PEM format cert openssl x509 -in signing_key.x509 -inform DER -out signing_key.x509.PEM -outform PEM - Generate a .p12 file from existing cert and private key file openssl pkcs12 -export -out kernel-key.p12 -inkey signing_key.priv -in signing_key.x509.PEM - Import .p12 file into pesign db pk12util -i /tmp/kernel-key.p12 -d /etc/pki/pesign - Sign bzImage pesign -i /boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-rc3+ -o /boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-rc3+.signed.pesign -c "Glacier signing key - Magrathea" -s sbsign ====== sbsign --key signing_key.priv --cert signing_key.x509.PEM --output /boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-rc3+.signed.sbsign /boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-rc3+ Patch details: Well all the hard work is done in previous patches. Now bzImage loader has just call into that code and verify whether bzImage signature are valid or not. Also create two config options. First one is CONFIG_KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG. This option enforces that kernel has to be validly signed otherwise kernel load will fail. If this option is not set, no signature verification will be done. Only exception will be when secureboot is enabled. In that case signature verification should be automatically enforced when secureboot is enabled. But that will happen when secureboot patches are merged. Second config option is CONFIG_KEXEC_BZIMAGE_VERIFY_SIG. This option enables signature verification support on bzImage. If this option is not set and previous one is set, kernel image loading will fail because kernel does not have support to verify signature of bzImage.

Relocation code has been inspired by module relocation code and purgatory relocation code in kexec-tools. Also compute the checksums of loaded kexec segments and store them in purgatory. Arch independent code provides this functionality so that arch dependent bootloaders can make use of it.

Currently walk_system_ram_range() deals with pfn and /proc/iomem can contain partial pages. By dealing in pfn, callback function loses the info that last page of a memory range is a partial page and not the full page. So I implemented walk_system_ram_res() which returns u64 values to callback functions and now it properly return start and end address. walk_system_ram_range() uses find_next_system_ram() to find the next ram resource. This in turn only travels through siblings of top level child and does not travers through all the nodes of the resoruce tree. I also need another function where I can walk through all the resources, for example figure out where "GART" aperture is. Figure out where ACPI memory is. So I wrote another function walk_iomem_res() which walks through all /proc/iomem resources and returns matches as asked by caller. Caller can specify "name" of resource, start and end and flags. Got rid of find_next_system_ram_res() and instead implemented more generic find_next_iomem_res() which can be used to traverse top level children only based on an argument.

So instead of having two separate functions create a common function kimage_alloc_init() and pass it the "flags" argument which tells whether it is normal kexec or kexec_on_panic. And this function should be able to deal with both the cases. This consolidation also helps later where we can use a common function kimage_file_alloc_init() to handle normal and crash cases for new file based kexec syscall.

In later patches, I need to only allocate kimage and not copy segment list from user space. So breaking down in smaller functions enables re-use of code at other places.
