2017-01-14perf/x86/intel: Account interrupts for PEBS errorsJiri Olsa
It's possible to set up PEBS events to get only errors and not any data, like on SNB-X (model 45) and IVB-EP (model 62) via 2 perf commands running simultaneously: taskset -c 1 ./perf record -c 4 -e branches:pp -j any -C 10 This leads to a soft lock up, because the error path of the intel_pmu_drain_pebs_nhm() does not account event->hw.interrupt for error PEBS interrupts, so in case you're getting ONLY errors you don't have a way to stop the event when it's over the max_samples_per_tick limit: NMI watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#22 stuck for 22s!

We keep the pending_kill and pending_wakeup logic only in the __perf_event_overflow() path, because they make sense only if there's any data to deliver.

2017-01-14perf/core: Fix concurrent sys_perf_event_open() vs. 'move_group' racePeter Zijlstra
Di Shen reported a race between two concurrent sys_perf_event_open() calls where both try and move the same pre-existing software group into a hardware context. The problem is exactly that described in commit: f63a8daa5812 ("perf: Fix event->ctx locking") ... where, while we wait for a ctx->mutex acquisition, the event->ctx relation can have changed under us. That very same commit failed to recognise sys_perf_event_context() as an external access vector to the events and thereby didn't apply the established locking rules correctly. So while one sys_perf_event_open() call is stuck waiting on mutex_lock_double(), the other (which owns said locks) moves the group about. So by the time the former sys_perf_event_open() acquires the locks, the context we've acquired is stale (and possibly dead). Apply the established locking rules as per perf_event_ctx_lock_nested() to the mutex_lock_double() for the 'move_group' case. This obviously means we need to validate state after we acquire the locks.

2017-01-14perf/core: Fix sys_perf_event_open() vs. hotplugPeter Zijlstra
There is problem with installing an event in a task that is 'stuck' on an offline CPU. Blocked tasks are not dis-assosciated from offlined CPUs, after all, a blocked task doesn't run and doesn't require a CPU etc.. Only on wakeup do we ammend the situation and place the task on a available CPU. If we hit such a task with perf_install_in_context() we'll loop until either that task wakes up or the CPU comes back online, if the task waking depends on the event being installed, we're stuck. While looking into this issue, I also spotted another problem, if we hit a task with perf_install_in_context() that is in the middle of being migrated, that is we observe the old CPU before sending the IPI, but run the IPI (on the old CPU) while the task is already running on the new CPU, things also go sideways. Rework things to rely on task_curr() -- outside of rq->lock -- which is rather tricky. Imagine the following scenario where we're trying to install the first event into our task 't': CPU0 CPU1 CPU2 (current == t) t->perf_event_ctxp[] = ctx; smp_mb(); cpu = task_cpu(t); switch(t, n); migrate(t, 2); switch(p, t); ctx = t->perf_event_ctxp[]; // must not be NULL smp_function_call(cpu, ..); generic_exec_single() func(); spin_lock(ctx->lock); if (task_curr(t)) // false add_event_to_ctx(); spin_unlock(ctx->lock); perf_event_context_sched_in(); spin_lock(ctx->lock); // sees event So its CPU0's store of t->perf_event_ctxp[] that must not go 'missing'. Because if CPU2's load of that variable were to observe NULL, it would not try to schedule the ctx and we'd have a task running without its counter, which would be 'bad'. As long as we observe !NULL, we'll acquire ctx->lock. If we acquire it first and not see the event yet, then CPU0 must observe task_curr() and retry. If the install happens first, then we must see the event on sched-in and all is well. I think we can translate the first part (until the 'must not be NULL') of the scenario to a litmus test like: C C-peterz { } P0(int *x, int *y) { int r1; WRITE_ONCE(*x, 1); smp_mb(); r1 = READ_ONCE(*y); } P1(int *y, int *z) { WRITE_ONCE(*y, 1); smp_store_release(z, 1); } P2(int *x, int *z) { int r1; int r2; r1 = smp_load_acquire(z); smp_mb(); r2 = READ_ONCE(*x); } exists (0:r1=0 /\ 2:r1=1 /\ 2:r2=0) Where: x is perf_event_ctxp[], y is our tasks's CPU, and z is our task being placed on the rq of CPU2. The P0 smp_mb() is the one added by this patch, ordering the store to perf_event_ctxp[] from find_get_context() and the load of task_cpu() in task_function_call(). The smp_store_release/smp_load_acquire model the RCpc locking of the rq->lock and the smp_mb() of P2 is the context switch switching from whatever CPU2 was running to our task 't'. This litmus test evaluates into: Test C-peterz Allowed States 7 0:r1=0; 2:r1=0; 2:r2=0; 0:r1=0; 2:r1=0; 2:r2=1; 0:r1=0; 2:r1=1; 2:r2=1; 0:r1=1; 2:r1=0; 2:r2=0; 0:r1=1; 2:r1=0; 2:r2=1; 0:r1=1; 2:r1=1; 2:r2=0; 0:r1=1; 2:r1=1; 2:r2=1; No Witnesses Positive: 0 Negative: 7 Condition exists (0:r1=0 /\ 2:r1=1 /\ 2:r2=0) Observation C-peterz Never 0 7 Hash=e427f41d9146b2a5445101d3e2fcaa34 And the strong and weak model agree.

2017-01-14kprobes, extable: Identify kprobes trampolines as kernel text areaMasami Hiramatsu
Improve __kernel_text_address()/kernel_text_address() to return true if the given address is on a kprobe's instruction slot trampoline. This can help stacktraces to determine the address is on a text area or not. To implement this atomically in is_kprobe_*_slot(), also change the insn_cache page list to an RCU list. This changes timings a bit (it delays page freeing to the RCU garbage collection phase), but none of that is in the hot path. Note: this change can add small overhead to stack unwinders because it adds 2 additional checks to __kernel_text_address(). However, the impact should be very small, because kprobe_insn_pages list has 1 entry per 256 probes(on x86, on arm/arm64 it will be 1024 probes), and kprobe_optinsn_pages has 1 entry per 32 probes(on x86). In most use cases, the number of kprobe events may be less than 20, which means that is_kprobe_*_slot() will check just one entry.

As reported by yangshukui, a permission denial from security_task_wait() can lead to a soft lockup in zap_pid_ns_processes() since it only expects sys_wait4() to return 0 or -ECHILD. Further, security_task_wait() can in general lead to zombies; in the absence of some way to automatically reparent a child process upon a denial, the hook is not useful.

When structs are used to store temporary state in cb[] buffer that is used with programs and among tail calls, then the generated code will not always access the buffer in bpf_w chunks. We can ease programming of it and let this act more natural by allowing for aligned b/h/w/dw sized access for cb[] ctx member. Various test cases are attached as well for the selftest suite. Potentially, this can also be reused for other program types to pass data around.

2017-01-12bpf: pass original insn directly to convert_ctx_accessDaniel Borkmann
Currently, when calling convert_ctx_access() callback for the various program types, we pass in insn->dst_reg, insn->src_reg, insn->off from the original instruction. This information is needed to rewrite the instruction that is based on the user ctx structure into a kernel representation for the ctx. As we'd like to allow access size beyond just BPF_W, we'd need also insn->code for that in order to decode the original access size. Given that, lets just pass insn directly to the convert_ctx_access() callback and work on that to not clutter the callback with even more arguments we need to pass when everything is already contained in insn.

2017-01-11nohz: Fix collision between tick and other hrtimersFrederic Weisbecker
When the tick is stopped and an interrupt occurs afterward, we check on that interrupt exit if the next tick needs to be rescheduled. If it doesn't need any update, we don't want to do anything. In order to check if the tick needs an update, we compare it against the clockevent device deadline. Now that's a problem because the clockevent device is at a lower level than the tick itself if it is implemented on top of hrtimer. Every hrtimer share this clockevent device. So comparing the next tick deadline against the clockevent device deadline is wrong because the device may be programmed for another hrtimer whose deadline collides with the tick. As a result we may end up not reprogramming the tick accidentally. In a worst case scenario under full dynticks mode, the tick stops firing as it is supposed to every 1hz, leaving /proc/stat stalled: Task in a full dynticks CPU ---------------------------- * hrtimer A is queued 2 seconds ahead * the tick is stopped, scheduled 1 second ahead * tick fires 1 second later * on tick exit, nohz schedules the tick 1 second ahead but sees the clockevent device is already programmed to that deadline, fooled by hrtimer A, the tick isn't rescheduled. * hrtimer A is cancelled before its deadline * tick never fires again until an interrupt happens... In order to fix this, store the next tick deadline to the tick_sched local structure and reuse that value later to check whether we need to reprogram the clock after an interrupt. On the other hand, ts->sleep_length still wants to know about the next clock event and not just the tick, so we want to improve the related comment to avoid confusion.

2017-01-10signal: protect SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE from unintentional clearing.Jamie Iles
Since commit 00cd5c37afd5 ("ptrace: permit ptracing of /sbin/init") we can now trace init processes. init is initially protected with SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE which will prevent fatal signals such as SIGSTOP, but there are a number of paths during tracing where SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE can be implicitly cleared. This can result in init becoming stoppable/killable after tracing. For example, running: while true; do kill -STOP 1; done & strace -p 1 and then stopping strace and the kill loop will result in init being left in state TASK_STOPPED. Sending SIGCONT to init will resume it, but init will now respond to future SIGSTOP signals rather than ignoring them. Make sure that when setting SIGNAL_STOP_CONTINUED/SIGNAL_STOP_STOPPED that we don't clear SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE.

2017-01-10mm: fix devm_memremap_pages crash, use mem_hotplug_{begin, done}Dan Williams
Both arch_add_memory() and arch_remove_memory() expect a single threaded context. For example, arch/x86/mm/init_64.c::kernel_physical_mapping_init() does not hold any locks over this check and branch: if (pgd_val(*pgd)) { pud = (pud_t *)pgd_page_vaddr(*pgd); paddr_last = phys_pud_init(pud, __pa(vaddr), __pa(vaddr_end), page_size_mask); continue; } pud = alloc_low_page(); paddr_last = phys_pud_init(pud, __pa(vaddr), __pa(vaddr_end), page_size_mask); The result is that two threads calling devm_memremap_pages() simultaneously can end up colliding on pgd initialization. This leads to crash signatures like the following where the loser of the race initializes the wrong pgd entry: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffff888ebfff0000 IP: memcpy_erms+0x6/0x10 PGD 2f8e8fc067 PUD 0 /* <---- Invalid PUD */ Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC CPU: 54 PID: 3818 Comm: systemd-udevd Not tainted 4.6.7+ #13 task: ffff882fac290040 ti: ffff882f887a4000 task.ti: ffff882f887a4000 RIP: memcpy_erms+0x6/0x10 [..] Call Trace: ? pmem_do_bvec+0x205/0x370 [nd_pmem] ? blk_queue_enter+0x3a/0x280 pmem_rw_page+0x38/0x80 [nd_pmem] bdev_read_page+0x84/0xb0 Hold the standard memory hotplug mutex over calls to arch_{add,remove}_memory().

2017-01-10bpf: do not use KMALLOC_SHIFT_MAXMichal Hocko
Commit 01b3f52157ff ("bpf: fix allocation warnings in bpf maps and integer overflow") has added checks for the maximum allocateable size. It (ab)used KMALLOC_SHIFT_MAX for that purpose. While this is not incorrect it is not very clean because we already have KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE for this very reason so let's change both checks to use KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE instead. The original motivation for using KMALLOC_SHIFT_MAX was to work around an incorrect KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE which could lead to allocation warnings but it is no longer needed since "slab: make sure that KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE will fit into MAX_ORDER".

Added rdma cgroup controller that does accounting, limit enforcement on rdma/IB resources. Added rdma cgroup header file which defines its APIs to perform charging/uncharging functionality. It also defined APIs for RDMA/IB stack for device registration. Devices which are registered will participate in controller functions of accounting and limit enforcements. It define rdmacg_device structure to bind IB stack and RDMA cgroup controller. RDMA resources are tracked using resource pool. Resource pool is per device, per cgroup entity which allows setting up accounting limits on per device basis. Currently resources are defined by the RDMA cgroup. Resource pool is created/destroyed dynamically whenever charging/uncharging occurs respectively and whenever user configuration is done. Its a tradeoff of memory vs little more code space that creates resource pool object whenever necessary, instead of creating them during cgroup creation and device registration time.

2017-01-09bpf: allow helpers access to variable memoryGianluca Borello
Currently, helpers that read and write from/to the stack can do so using a pair of arguments of type ARG_PTR_TO_STACK and ARG_CONST_STACK_SIZE. ARG_CONST_STACK_SIZE accepts a constant register of type CONST_IMM, so that the verifier can safely check the memory access. However, requiring the argument to be a constant can be limiting in some circumstances. Since the current logic keeps track of the minimum and maximum value of a register throughout the simulated execution, ARG_CONST_STACK_SIZE can be changed to also accept an UNKNOWN_VALUE register in case its boundaries have been set and the range doesn't cause invalid memory accesses. One common situation when this is useful: int len; char buf[BUFSIZE]; /* BUFSIZE is 128 */ if (some_condition) len = 42; else len = 84; some_helper(..., buf, len & (BUFSIZE - 1)); The compiler can often decide to assign the constant values 42 or 48 into a variable on the stack, instead of keeping it in a register. When the variable is then read back from stack into the register in order to be passed to the helper, the verifier will not be able to recognize the register as constant (the verifier is not currently tracking all constant writes into memory), and the program won't be valid. However, by allowing the helper to accept an UNKNOWN_VALUE register, this program will work because the bitwise AND operation will set the range of possible values for the UNKNOWN_VALUE register to [0, BUFSIZE), so the verifier can guarantee the helper call will be safe (assuming the argument is of type ARG_CONST_STACK_SIZE_OR_ZERO, otherwise one more check against 0 would be needed). Custom ranges can be set not only with ALU operations, but also by explicitly comparing the UNKNOWN_VALUE register with constants. Another very common example happens when intercepting system call arguments and accessing user-provided data of variable size using bpf_probe_read(). One can load at runtime the user-provided length in an UNKNOWN_VALUE register, and then read that exact amount of data up to a compile-time determined limit in order to fit into the proper local storage allocated on the stack, without having to guess a suboptimal access size at compile time. Also, in case the helpers accepting the UNKNOWN_VALUE register operate in raw mode, disable the raw mode so that the program is required to initialize all memory, since there is no guarantee the helper will fill it completely, leaving possibilities for data leak (just relevant when the memory used by the helper is the stack, not when using a pointer to map element value or packet). In other words, ARG_PTR_TO_RAW_STACK will be treated as ARG_PTR_TO_STACK.

2017-01-09bpf: allow adjusted map element values to spillGianluca Borello
commit 484611357c19 ("bpf: allow access into map value arrays") introduces the ability to do pointer math inside a map element value via the PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_ADJ register type. The current support doesn't handle the case where a PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_ADJ is spilled into the stack, limiting several use cases, especially when generating bpf code from a compiler. Handle this case by explicitly enabling the register type PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_ADJ to be spilled. Also, make sure that min_value and max_value are reset just for BPF_LDX operations that don't result in a restore of a spilled register from stack.

2017-01-09bpf: allow helpers access to map element valuesGianluca Borello
Enable helpers to directly access a map element value by passing a register type PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE (or PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_ADJ) to helper arguments ARG_PTR_TO_STACK or ARG_PTR_TO_RAW_STACK. This enables several use cases. For example, a typical tracing program might want to capture pathnames passed to sys_open() with: struct trace_data { char pathname[PATHLEN]; }; SEC("kprobe/sys_open") void bpf_sys_open(struct pt_regs *ctx) { struct trace_data data; bpf_probe_read(data.pathname, sizeof(data.pathname), ctx->di); /* consume data.pathname, for example via * bpf_trace_printk() or bpf_perf_event_output() */ } Such a program could easily hit the stack limit in case PATHLEN needs to be large or more local variables need to exist, both of which are quite common scenarios. Allowing direct helper access to map element values, one could do: struct bpf_map_def SEC("maps") scratch_map = { .type = BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERCPU_ARRAY, .key_size = sizeof(u32), .value_size = sizeof(struct trace_data), .max_entries = 1, }; SEC("kprobe/sys_open") int bpf_sys_open(struct pt_regs *ctx) { int id = 0; struct trace_data *p = bpf_map_lookup_elem(&scratch_map, &id); if (!p) return; bpf_probe_read(p->pathname, sizeof(p->pathname), ctx->di); /* consume p->pathname, for example via * bpf_trace_printk() or bpf_perf_event_output() */ } And wouldn't risk exhausting the stack. Code changes are loosely modeled after commit 6841de8b0d03 ("bpf: allow helpers access the packet directly"). Unlike with PTR_TO_PACKET, these changes just work with ARG_PTR_TO_STACK and ARG_PTR_TO_RAW_STACK (not ARG_PTR_TO_MAP_KEY, ARG_PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE, ...): adding those would be trivial, but since there is not currently a use case for that, it's reasonable to limit the set of changes. Also, add new tests to make sure accesses to map element values from helpers never go out of boundary, even when adjusted.

2017-01-09bpf: split check_mem_access logic for map valuesGianluca Borello
Move the logic to check memory accesses to a PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_ADJ from check_mem_access() to a separate helper check_map_access_adj(). This enables to use those checks in other parts of the verifier as well, where boundaries on PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_ADJ might need to be checked, for example when checking helper function arguments. The same thing is already happening for other types such as PTR_TO_PACKET and its check_packet_access() helper. The code has been copied verbatim, with the only difference of removing the "off += reg->max_value" statement and moving the sum into the call statement to check_map_access(), as that was only needed due to the earlier common check_map_access() call.
