2018-06-12treewide: kzalloc() -> kcalloc()Kees Cook
The kzalloc() function has a 2-factor argument form, kcalloc(). This patch replaces cases of: kzalloc(a * b, gfp) with: kcalloc(a * b, gfp) as well as handling cases of: kzalloc(a * b * c, gfp) with: kzalloc(array3_size(a, b, c), gfp) as it's slightly less ugly than: kzalloc_array(array_size(a, b), c, gfp) This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like: kzalloc(4 * 1024, gfp) though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion. Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were dropped, since they're redundant. The Coccinelle script used for this was: // Fix redundant parens around sizeof(). @@ type TYPE; expression THING, E; @@ ( kzalloc( - (sizeof(TYPE)) * E + sizeof(TYPE) * E , ...) | kzalloc( - (sizeof(THING)) * E + sizeof(THING) * E , ...) ) // Drop single-byte sizes and redundant parens. @@ expression COUNT;

2018-01-31kdb: use ktime_get_mono_fast_ns() instead of ktime_get_ts()Baolin Wang
The kdb code will print the monotonic time by ktime_get_ts(), but the ktime_get_ts() will be protected by a sequence lock, that will introduce one deadlock risk if the lock was already held in the context from which we entered the debugger. Thus we can use the ktime_get_mono_fast_ns() to get the monotonic time, which is NMI safe access to clock monotonic. Moreover we can remove the 'struct timespec', which is not y2038 safe.

2018-01-25kdb: use __ktime_get_real_seconds instead of __current_kernel_timeArnd Bergmann
kdb is the only user of the __current_kernel_time() interface, which is not y2038 safe and should be removed at some point. The kdb code also goes to great lengths to print the time in a human-readable format from 'struct timespec', again using a non-y2038-safe re-implementation of the generic time_to_tm() code. Using __current_kernel_time() here is necessary since the regular accessors that require a sequence lock might hang when called during the xtime update. However, this is safe in the particular case since kdb is only interested in the tv_sec field that is updated atomically. In order to make this y2038-safe, I'm converting the code to the generic time64_to_tm helper, but that introduces the problem that we have no interface like __current_kernel_time() that provides a 64-bit timestamp in a lockless, safe and architecture-independent way. I have multiple ideas for how to solve that: - __ktime_get_real_seconds() is lockless, but can return incorrect results on 32-bit architectures in the special case that we are in the process of changing the time across the epoch, either during the timer tick that overflows the seconds in 2038, or while calling settimeofday. - ktime_get_real_fast_ns() would work in this context, but does require a call into the clocksource driver to return a high-resolution timestamp. This may have undesired side-effects in the debugger, since we want to limit the interactions with the rest of the kernel. - Adding a ktime_get_real_fast_seconds() based on tk_fast_mono plus tkr->base_real without the tk_clock_read() delta. Not sure about the value of adding yet another interface here. - Changing the existing ktime_get_real_seconds() to use tk_fast_mono on 32-bit architectures rather than xtime_sec. I think this could work, but am not entirely sure if this is an improvement. I picked the first of those for simplicity here. It's technically not correct but probably good enough as the time is only used for the debugging output and the race will likely never be hit in practice. Another downside is having to move the declaration into a public header file. Let me know if anyone has a different preference.

- Rename from kdb_send_sig_info to kdb_send_sig As there is no meaningful siginfo sent - Use SEND_SIG_PRIV instead of generating a siginfo for a kdb signal. The generated siginfo had a bogus rationale and was not correct in the face of pid namespaces. SEND_SIG_PRIV is simpler and actually correct. - As the code grabs siglock just send the signal with siglock held instead of dropping siglock and attempting to grab it again. - Move the sig_valid test into kdb_kill where it can generate a good error message.

2016-12-14kdb: call vkdb_printf() from vprintk_default() only when wantedPetr Mladek
kdb_trap_printk allows to pass normal printk() messages to kdb via vkdb_printk(). For example, it is used to get backtrace using the classic show_stack(), see kdb_show_stack(). vkdb_printf() tries to avoid a potential infinite loop by disabling the trap. But this approach is racy, for example: CPU1 CPU2 vkdb_printf() // assume that kdb_trap_printk == 0 saved_trap_printk = kdb_trap_printk; kdb_trap_printk = 0; kdb_show_stack() kdb_trap_printk++; Problem1: Now, a nested printk() on CPU0 calls vkdb_printf() even when it should have been disabled. It will not cause a deadlock but... // using the outdated saved value: 0 kdb_trap_printk = saved_trap_printk; kdb_trap_printk--; Problem2: Now, kdb_trap_printk == -1 and will stay like this. It means that all messages will get passed to kdb from now on. This patch removes the racy saved_trap_printk handling. Instead, the recursion is prevented by a check for the locked CPU. The solution is still kind of racy. A non-related printk(), from another process, might get trapped by vkdb_printf(). And the wanted printk() might not get trapped because kdb_printf_cpu is assigned. But this problem existed even with the original code. A proper solution would be to get_cpu() before setting kdb_trap_printk and trap messages only from this CPU. I am not sure if it is worth the effort, though. In fact, the race is very theoretical. When kdb is running any of the commands that use kdb_trap_printk there is a single active CPU and the other CPUs should be in a holding pen inside kgdb_cpu_enter(). The only time this is violated is when there is a timeout waiting for the other CPUs to report to the holding pen. Finally, note that the situation is a bit schizophrenic. vkdb_printf() explicitly allows recursion but only from KDB code that calls kdb_printf() directly. On the other hand, the generic printk() recursion is not allowed because it might cause an infinite loop. This is why we could not hide the decision inside vkdb_printf() easily.

2016-12-14kdb: properly synchronize vkdb_printf() calls with other CPUsPetr Mladek
kdb_printf_lock does not prevent other CPUs from entering the critical section because it is ignored when KDB_STATE_PRINTF_LOCK is set. The problematic situation might look like: CPU0 CPU1 vkdb_printf() if (!KDB_STATE(PRINTF_LOCK)) KDB_STATE_SET(PRINTF_LOCK); spin_lock_irqsave(&kdb_printf_lock, flags); vkdb_printf() if (!KDB_STATE(PRINTF_LOCK)) BANG: The PRINTF_LOCK state is set and CPU1 is entering the critical section without spinning on the lock. The problem is that the code tries to implement locking using two state variables that are not handled atomically. Well, we need a custom locking because we want to allow reentering the critical section on the very same CPU. Let's use solution from Petr Zijlstra that was proposed for a similar scenario, see https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20161018171513.734367391@infradead.org This patch uses the same trick with cmpxchg(). The only difference is that we want to handle only recursion from the same context and therefore we disable interrupts. In addition, KDB_STATE_PRINTF_LOCK is removed. In fact, we are not able to set it a non-racy way.

2016-12-14kdb: remove unused kdb_event handlingPetr Mladek
kdb_event state variable is only set but never checked in the kernel code. http://www.spinics.net/lists/kdb/msg01733.html suggests that this variable affected WARN_CONSOLE_UNLOCKED() in the original implementation. But this check never went upstream. The semantic is unclear and racy. The value is updated after the kdb_printf_lock is acquired and after it is released. It should be symmetric at minimum. The value should be manipulated either inside or outside the locked area. Fortunately, it seems that the original function is gone and we could simply remove the state variable.

2016-12-14kernel/debug/debug_core.c: more properly delay for secondary CPUsDouglas Anderson
We've got a delay loop waiting for secondary CPUs. That loop uses loops_per_jiffy. However, loops_per_jiffy doesn't actually mean how many tight loops make up a jiffy on all architectures. It is quite common to see things like this in the boot log: Calibrating delay loop (skipped), value calculated using timer frequency.. 48.00 BogoMIPS (lpj=24000) In my case I was seeing lots of cases where other CPUs timed out entering the debugger only to print their stack crawls shortly after the kdb> prompt was written. Elsewhere in kgdb we already use udelay(), so that should be safe enough to use to implement our timeout. We'll delay 1 ms for 1000 times, which should give us a full second of delay (just like the old code wanted) but allow us to notice that we're done every 1 ms.

Commit 4bcc595ccd80 ("printk: reinstate KERN_CONT for printing continuation lines") allows to define more message headers for a single message. The motivation is that continuous lines might get mixed. Therefore it make sense to define the right log level for every piece of a cont line. This patch introduces printk_skip_headers() that will skip all headers and uses it in the kdb code instead of printk_skip_level(). This approach helps to fix other printk_skip_level() users independently.

2015-02-19debug: prevent entering debug mode on panic/exception.Colin Cross
On non-developer devices, kgdb prevents the device from rebooting after a panic. Incase of panics and exceptions, to allow the device to reboot, prevent entering debug mode to avoid getting stuck waiting for the user to interact with debugger. To avoid entering the debugger on panic/exception without any extra configuration, panic_timeout is being used which can be set via /proc/sys/kernel/panic at run time and CONFIG_PANIC_TIMEOUT sets the default value. Setting panic_timeout indicates that the user requested machine to perform unattended reboot after panic. We dont want to get stuck waiting for the user input incase of panic.

2015-02-19kdb: Avoid printing KERN_ levels to consolesDaniel Thompson
Currently when kdb traps printk messages then the raw log level prefix (consisting of '\001' followed by a numeral) does not get stripped off before the message is issued to the various I/O handlers supported by kdb. This causes annoying visual noise as well as causing problems grepping for ^. It is also a change of behaviour compared to normal usage of printk() usage. For example <SysRq>-h ends up with different output to that of kdb's "sr h". This patch addresses the problem by stripping log levels from messages before they are issued to the I/O handlers. printk() which can also act as an i/o handler in some cases is special cased; if the caller provided a log level then the prefix will be preserved when sent to printk(). The addition of non-printable characters to the output of kdb commands is a regression, albeit and extremely elderly one, introduced by commit 04d2c8c83d0e ("printk: convert the format for KERN_<LEVEL> to a 2 byte pattern"). Note also that this patch does *not* restore the original behaviour from v3.5. Instead it makes printk() from within a kdb command display the message without any prefix (i.e. like printk() normally does).

2014-11-11kdb: Add enable mask for groups of commandsAnton Vorontsov
Currently all kdb commands are enabled whenever kdb is deployed. This makes it difficult to deploy kdb to help debug certain types of systems. Android phones provide one example; the FIQ debugger found on some Android devices has a deliberately weak set of commands to allow the debugger to enabled very late in the production cycle. Certain kiosk environments offer another interesting case where an engineer might wish to probe the system state using passive inspection commands without providing sufficient power for a passer by to root it. Without any restrictions, obtaining the root rights via KDB is a matter of a few commands, and works everywhere. For example, log in as a normal user: cbou:~$ id uid=1001(cbou) gid=1001(cbou) groups=1001(cbou) Now enter KDB (for example via sysrq): Entering kdb (current=0xffff8800065bc740, pid 920) due to Keyboard Entry kdb> ps 23 sleeping system daemon (state M) processes suppressed, use 'ps A' to see all.

We can look up the offset in the distro's kernel source, but it is unnecessary.

Also, correct the check in x86_64_start_kernel which should be >= as we're clearly issuing the string there for all debug levels, not only the magical 10.

2014-04-07mm: per-thread vma cachingDavidlohr Bueso
This patch is a continuation of efforts trying to optimize find_vma(), avoiding potentially expensive rbtree walks to locate a vma upon faults. The original approach (https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/11/1/410), where the largest vma was also cached, ended up being too specific and random, thus further comparison with other approaches were needed. There are two things to consider when dealing with this, the cache hit rate and the latency of find_vma(). Improving the hit-rate does not necessarily translate in finding the vma any faster, as the overhead of any fancy caching schemes can be too high to consider. We currently cache the last used vma for the whole address space, which provides a nice optimization, reducing the total cycles in find_vma() by up to 250%, for workloads with good locality. On the other hand, this simple scheme is pretty much useless for workloads with poor locality. Analyzing ebizzy runs shows that, no matter how many threads are running, the mmap_cache hit rate is less than 2%, and in many situations below 1%. The proposed approach is to replace this scheme with a small per-thread cache, maximizing hit rates at a very low maintenance cost. Invalidations are performed by simply bumping up a 32-bit sequence number. The only expensive operation is in the rare case of a seq number overflow, where all caches that share the same address space are flushed. Upon a miss, the proposed replacement policy is based on the page number that contains the virtual address in question. Concretely, the following results are seen on an 80 core, 8 socket x86-64 box: 1) System bootup: Most programs are single threaded, so the per-thread scheme does improve ~50% hit rate by just adding a few more slots to the cache. +----------------+----------+------------------+ | caching scheme | hit-rate | cycles (billion) | +----------------+----------+------------------+ | baseline | 50.61% | 19.90 | | patched | 73.45% | 13.58 | +----------------+----------+------------------+ 2) Kernel build: This one is already pretty good with the current approach as we're dealing with good locality. +----------------+----------+------------------+ | caching scheme | hit-rate | cycles (billion) | +----------------+----------+------------------+ | baseline | 75.28% | 11.03 | | patched | 88.09% | 9.31 | +----------------+----------+------------------+ 3) Oracle 11g Data Mining (4k pages): Similar to the kernel build workload. +----------------+----------+------------------+ | caching scheme | hit-rate | cycles (billion) | +----------------+----------+------------------+ | baseline | 70.66% | 17.14 | | patched | 91.15% | 12.57 | +----------------+----------+------------------+ 4) Ebizzy: There's a fair amount of variation from run to run, but this approach always shows nearly perfect hit rates, while baseline is just about non-existent. The amounts of cycles can fluctuate between anywhere from ~60 to ~116 for the baseline scheme, but this approach reduces it considerably. For instance, with 80 threads: +----------------+----------+------------------+ | caching scheme | hit-rate | cycles (billion) | +----------------+----------+------------------+ | baseline | 1.06% | 91.54 | | patched | 99.97% | 14.18 | +----------------+----------+------------------+ [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix nommu build, per Davidlohr] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: document vmacache_valid() logic] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: attempt to untangle header files] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: add vmacache_find() BUG_ON] [hughd@google.com: add vmacache_valid_mm() (from Oleg)] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: adjust and enhance comments] Signed-off-by: Davidlohr Bueso <davidlohr@hp.com> Reviewed-by: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Acked-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Reviewed-by: Michel Lespinasse <walken@google.com> Cc: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Tested-by: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2014-02-26KGDB: make kgdb_breakpoint() as noinlineVijaya Kumar K
The function kgdb_breakpoint() sets up break point at compile time by calling arch_kgdb_breakpoint(); Though this call is surrounded by wmb() barrier, the compile can still re-order the break point, because this scheduling barrier is not a code motion barrier in gcc. Making kgdb_breakpoint() as noinline solves this problem of code reording around break point instruction and also avoids problem of being called as inline function from other places More details about discussion on this can be found here http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.arm.kernel/269732 Signed-off-by: Vijaya Kumar K <Vijaya.Kumar@caviumnetworks.com> Acked-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com> Acked-by: Jason Wessel <jason.wessel@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>
