With the introduction of stack depot evictions, each stack record is now
fixed size, so that future reuse after an eviction can safely store
differently sized stack traces. In all cases that do not make use of
evictions, this wastes lots of space.
Fix it by re-introducing variable size stack records (up to the max
allowed size) for entries that will never be evicted. We know if an entry
will never be evicted if the flag STACK_DEPOT_FLAG_GET is not provided,
since a later stack_depot_put() attempt is undefined behavior.
With my current kernel config that enables KASAN and also SLUB owner
tracking, I observe (after a kernel boot) a whopping reduction of 296
stack depot pools, which translates into 4736 KiB saved. The savings here
are from SLUB owner tracking only, because KASAN generic mode still uses
refcounting.
Before:
pools: 893
allocations: 29841
frees: 6524
in_use: 23317
freelist_size: 3454

With the introduction of the pool_rwlock (reader-writer lock), several
fast paths end up taking the pool_rwlock as readers. Furthermore,
stack_depot_put() unconditionally takes the pool_rwlock as a writer.
Despite allowing readers to make forward-progress concurrently,
reader-writer locks have inherent cache contention issues, which does not
scale well on systems with large CPU counts.
Rework the synchronization story of stack depot to again avoid taking any
locks in the fast paths. This is done by relying on RCU-protected list
traversal, and the NMI-safe subset of RCU to delay reuse of freed stack
records. See code comments for more details.
Along with the performance issues, this also fixes incorrect nesting of
rwlock within a raw_spinlock, given that stack depot should still be
usable from anywhere:
| [ BUG: Invalid wait context ]
| -----------------------------
| swapper/0/1 is trying to lock:
| ffffffff89869be8 (pool_rwlock){..--}-{3:3}, at: stack_depot_save_flags

| #1: ffff888100092018 (&pool->lock){-.-.}-{2:2}, at: __queue_work <-- raw_spin_lock
Stack depot usage stats are similar to the previous version after a KASAN
kernel boot:
$ cat /sys/kernel/debug/stackdepot/stats
pools: 838
allocations: 29865
frees: 6604
in_use: 23261
freelist_size: 1879
The number of pools is the same as previously. The freelist size is
minimally larger, but this may also be due to variance across system
boots. This shows that even though we do not eagerly wait for the next
RCU grace period (such as with synchronize_rcu() or call_rcu()) after
freeing a stack record - requiring depot_pop_free() to "poll" if an entry
may be used - new allocations are very likely to happen in later RCU grace
periods.

Add a few basic stats counters for stack depot that can be used to derive
if stack depot is working as intended. This is a snapshot of the new
stats after booting a system with a KASAN-enabled kernel:
$ cat /sys/kernel/debug/stackdepot/stats
pools: 838
allocations: 29861
frees: 6561
in_use: 23300
freelist_size: 1840
Generally, "pools" should be well below the max; once the system is
booted, "in_use" should remain relatively steady.

Patch series "lib/stackdepot, kasan: fixes for stack eviction series", v3.
A few fixes for the stack depot eviction series ("stackdepot: allow
evicting stack traces").
This patch (of 5):
Stack depot functions can be called from various contexts that do
allocations, including with console locks taken. At the same time, stack
depot functions might print WARNING's or refcount-related failures.
This can cause a deadlock on console locks.
Add printk_deferred_enter/exit guards to stack depot to avoid this.

KMSAN is frequently used in fuzzing scenarios and thus saves a lot of
stack traces. As KMSAN does not support evicting stack traces from the
stack depot, the stack depot capacity might be reached quickly with large
stack records.
Adjust the maximum number of stack depot pools for this case.
The average size of a stack trace saved into the stack depot is ~16
frames. Thus, adjust the maximum pools number accordingly to keep the
maximum number of stack traces that can be saved into the stack depot
similar to the one that was allowed before the stack trace eviction
changes.

Add stack_depot_put, a function that decrements the reference counter on a
stack record and removes it from the stack depot once the counter reaches
0.
Internally, when removing a stack record, the function unlinks it from the
hash table bucket and returns to the freelist.
With this change, the users of stack depot can call stack_depot_put when
keeping a stack trace in the stack depot is not needed anymore. This
allows avoiding polluting the stack depot with irrelevant stack traces and
thus have more space to store the relevant ones before the stack depot
reaches its capacity.

Currently, stack depot uses the following locking scheme:
1. Lock-free accesses when looking up a stack record, which allows to
have multiple users to look up records in parallel;
2. Spinlock for protecting the stack depot pools and the hash table
when adding a new record.
For implementing the eviction of stack traces from stack depot, the
lock-free approach is not going to work anymore, as we will need to be
able to also remove records from the hash table.
Convert the spinlock into a read/write lock, and drop the atomic
accesses, as they are no longer required.
Looking up stack traces is now protected by the read lock and adding new
records - by the write lock. One of the following patches will add a
new function for evicting stack records, which will be protected by the
write lock as well.
With this change, multiple users can still look up records in parallel.
This is preparatory patch for implementing the eviction of stack records
from the stack depot.

Instead of using the global pool_offset variable to find a free slot when
storing a new stack record, mainlain a freelist of free slots within the
allocated stack pools.
A global next_stack variable is used as the head of the freelist, and the
next field in the stack_record struct is reused as freelist link (when the
record is not in the freelist, this field is used as a link in the hash
table).
This is preparatory patch for implementing the eviction of stack records

Split code in depot_alloc_stack and depot_init_pool into 3 functions:
1. depot_keep_next_pool that keeps preallocated memory for the next pool
if required.
2. depot_update_pools that moves on to the next pool if there's no space
left in the current pool, uses preallocated memory for the new current
pool if required, and calls depot_keep_next_pool otherwise.
3. depot_alloc_stack that calls depot_update_pools and then allocates
a stack record as before.
This makes it somewhat easier to follow the logic of depot_alloc_stack and
also serves as a preparation for implementing the eviction of stack
records from the stack depot.

Patch series "stackdepot: allow evicting stack traces", v4.
Currently, the stack depot grows indefinitely until it reaches its
capacity. Once that happens, the stack depot stops saving new stack
traces.
This creates a problem for using the stack depot for in-field testing and
in production.
For such uses, an ideal stack trace storage should:
1. Allow saving fresh stack traces on systems with a large uptime while
limiting the amount of memory used to store the traces;
2. Have a low performance impact.
Implementing #1 in the stack depot is impossible with the current
keep-forever approach. This series targets to address that. Issue #2 is
left to be addressed in a future series.
This series changes the stack depot implementation to allow evicting
unneeded stack traces from the stack depot. The users of the stack depot
can do that via new stack_depot_save_flags(STACK_DEPOT_FLAG_GET) and
stack_depot_put APIs.
Internal changes to the stack depot code include:
1. Storing stack traces in fixed-frame-sized slots (vs precisely-sized
slots in the current implementation); the slot size is controlled via
CONFIG_STACKDEPOT_MAX_FRAMES (default: 64 frames);
2. Keeping available slots in a freelist (vs keeping an offset to the next
free slot);
3. Using a read/write lock for synchronization (vs a lock-free approach
combined with a spinlock).
This series also integrates the eviction functionality into KASAN: the
tag-based modes evict stack traces when the corresponding entry leaves the
stack ring, and Generic KASAN evicts stack traces for objects once those
leave the quarantine.
With KASAN, despite wasting some space on rounding up the size of each
stack record, the total memory consumed by stack depot gets saturated due
to the eviction of irrelevant stack traces from the stack depot.
With the tag-based KASAN modes, the average total amount of memory used
for stack traces becomes ~0.5 MB (with the current default stack ring size
of 32k entries and the default CONFIG_STACKDEPOT_MAX_FRAMES of 64). With
Generic KASAN, the stack traces take up ~1 MB per 1 GB of RAM (as the
quarantine's size depends on the amount of RAM).
However, with KMSAN, the stack depot ends up using ~4x more memory per a
stack trace than before. Thus, for KMSAN, the stack depot capacity is
increased accordingly. KMSAN uses a lot of RAM for shadow memory anyway,
so the increased stack depot memory usage will not make a significant
difference.
Other users of the stack depot do not save stack traces as often as KASAN
and KMSAN. Thus, the increased memory usage is taken as an acceptable
trade-off. In the future, these other users can take advantage of the
eviction API to limit the memory waste.
There is no measurable boot time performance impact of these changes for
KASAN on x86-64. I haven't done any tests for arm64 modes (the stack
depot without performance optimizations is not suitable for intended use
of those anyway), but I expect a similar result. Obtaining and copying
stack trace frames when saving them into stack depot is what takes the
most time.
This series does not yet provide a way to configure the maximum size of
the stack depot externally (e.g. via a command-line parameter). This
will be added in a separate series, possibly together with the performance
improvement changes.
This patch (of 22):
Currently, if stack_depot_disable=off is passed to the kernel command-line
after stack_depot_disable=on, stack depot prints a message that it is
disabled, while it is actually enabled.
Fix this by moving printing the disabled message to
stack_depot_early_init. Place it before the
__stack_depot_early_init_requested check, so that the message is printed
even if early stack depot init has not been requested.
Also drop the stack_table = NULL assignment from disable_stack_depot, as
stack_table is NULL by default.

KMSAN does not instrument stackdepot and may treat memory allocated by it
as uninitialized. This is not a problem for KMSAN itself, because its
functions calling stackdepot API are also not instrumented. But other
kernel features (e.g. netdev tracker) may access stack depot from
instrumented code, which will lead to false positives, unless we
explicitly mark stackdepot outputs as initialized.

Accesses to pool_index are protected by pool_lock everywhere except
in a sanity check in stack_depot_fetch. The read access there can race
with the write access in depot_alloc_stack.
Use WRITE/READ_ONCE() to annotate the racy accesses.
As the sanity check is only used to print a warning in case of a
violation of the stack depot interface usage, it does not make a lot
of sense to use proper synchronization.

The current implementation of the extra_bits interface is confusing:
passing extra_bits to __stack_depot_save makes it seem that the extra
bits are somehow stored in stack depot. In reality, they are only
embedded into a stack depot handle and are not used within stack depot.
Drop the extra_bits argument from __stack_depot_save and instead provide
a new stack_depot_set_extra_bits function (similar to the exsiting
stack_depot_get_extra_bits) that saves extra bits into a stack depot
handle.
Update the callers of __stack_depot_save to use the new interace.
This change also fixes a minor issue in the old code: __stack_depot_save
does not return NULL if saving stack trace fails and extra_bits is used.

depot_init_pool has two call sites:
1. In depot_alloc_stack with a potentially NULL prealloc.
2. In __stack_depot_save with a non-NULL prealloc.
At the same time depot_init_pool can only return false when prealloc is
NULL.
As the second call site makes sure that prealloc is not NULL, the WARN_ON
there can never trigger. Thus, drop the WARN_ON and also move the prealloc
check from depot_init_pool to its first call site.
Also change the return type of depot_init_pool to void as it now always

As Linus explained [1], setting the stackdepot hash table size as a config
option is suboptimal, especially as stackdepot becomes a dependency of
less "expert" subsystems than initially (e.g. DRM, networking,
SLUB_DEBUG):
: (a) it introduces a new compile-time question that isn't sane to ask
: a regular user, but is now exposed to regular users.
: (b) this by default uses 1MB of memory for a feature that didn't in
: the past, so now if you have small machines you need to make sure you
: make a special kernel config for them.
Ideally we would employ rhashtable for fully automatic resizing, which
should be feasible for many of the new users, but problematic for the
original users with restricted context that call __stack_depot_save() with
can_alloc == false, i.e. KASAN.
However we can easily remove the config option and scale the hash table
automatically with system memory. The STACK_HASH_MASK constant becomes
stack_hash_mask variable and is used only in one mask operation, so the
overhead should be negligible to none. For early allocation we can employ
the existing alloc_large_system_hash() function and perform similar
scaling for the late allocation.
The existing limits of the config option (between 4k and 1M buckets) are
preserved, and scaling factor is set to one bucket per 16kB memory so on
64bit the max 1M buckets (8MB memory) is achieved with 16GB system, while
a 1GB system will use 512kB.
Because KASAN is reported to need the maximum number of buckets even with
smaller amounts of memory [2], set it as such when kasan_enabled().
If needed, the automatic scaling could be complemented with a boot-time
kernel parameter, but it feels pointless to add it without a specific use
case.

In a later patch we want to add stackdepot support for object owner
tracking in slub caches, which is enabled by slub_debug boot parameter.
This creates a bootstrap problem as some caches are created early in
boot when slab_is_available() is false and thus stack_depot_init()
tries to use memblock. But, as reported by Hyeonggon Yoo [1] we are
already beyond memblock_free_all(). Ideally memblock allocation should
fail, yet it succeeds, but later the system crashes, which is a
separately handled issue.
To resolve this boostrap issue in a robust way, this patch adds another
way to request stack_depot_early_init(), which happens at a well-defined
point of time. In addition to build-time CONFIG_STACKDEPOT_ALWAYS_INIT,
code that's e.g. processing boot parameters (which happens early enough)
can call a new function stack_depot_want_early_init(), which sets a flag
that stack_depot_early_init() will check.
In this patch we also convert page_owner to this approach. While it
doesn't have the bootstrap issue as slub, it's also a functionality
enabled by a boot param and can thus request stack_depot_early_init()
with memblock allocation instead of later initialization with
kvmalloc().
As suggested by Mike, make stack_depot_early_init() only attempt
memblock allocation and stack_depot_init() only attempt kvmalloc().
Also change the latter to kvcalloc(). In both cases we can lose the
explicit array zeroing, which the allocations do already.
As suggested by Marco, provide empty implementations of the init
functions for !CONFIG_STACKDEPOT builds to simplify the callers.

The non-interrupt portion of interrupt stack traces before interrupt
entry is usually arbitrary. Therefore, saving stack traces of
interrupts (that include entries before interrupt entry) to stack depot
leads to unbounded stackdepot growth.
As such, use of filter_irq_stacks() is a requirement to ensure
stackdepot can efficiently deduplicate interrupt stacks.
Looking through all current users of stack_depot_save(), none (except
KASAN) pass the stack trace through filter_irq_stacks() before passing
it on to stack_depot_save().
Rather than adding filter_irq_stacks() to all current users of
stack_depot_save(), it became clear that stack_depot_save() should
simply do filter_irq_stacks().

Currently, enabling CONFIG_STACKDEPOT means its stack_table will be
allocated from memblock, even if stack depot ends up not actually used.
The default size of stack_table is 4MB on 32-bit, 8MB on 64-bit.
This is fine for use-cases such as KASAN which is also a config option
and has overhead on its own. But it's an issue for functionality that
has to be actually enabled on boot (page_owner) or depends on hardware
(GPU drivers) and thus the memory might be wasted. This was raised as
an issue [1] when attempting to add stackdepot support for SLUB's debug
object tracking functionality. It's common to build kernels with
CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG and enable slub_debug on boot only when needed, or
create only specific kmem caches with debugging for testing purposes.
It would thus be more efficient if stackdepot's table was allocated only
when actually going to be used. This patch thus makes the allocation
(and whole stack_depot_init() call) optional:
- Add a CONFIG_STACKDEPOT_ALWAYS_INIT flag to keep using the current
well-defined point of allocation as part of mem_init(). Make
CONFIG_KASAN select this flag.
- Other users have to call stack_depot_init() as part of their own init
when it's determined that stack depot will actually be used. This may
depend on both config and runtime conditions. Convert current users
which are page_owner and several in the DRM subsystem. Same will be
done for SLUB later.
- Because the init might now be called after the boot-time memblock
allocation has given all memory to the buddy allocator, change
stack_depot_init() to allocate stack_table with kvmalloc() when
memblock is no longer available. Also handle allocation failure by
disabling stackdepot (could have theoretically happened even with
memblock allocation previously), and don't unnecessarily align the
memblock allocation to its own size anymore.

Subject: lib/stackdepot: allow optional init and stack_table allocation by kvmalloc() - fixup
On FLATMEM, we call page_ext_init_flatmem_late() just before
kmem_cache_init() which means stack_depot_init() (called by page owner
init) will not recognize properly it should use kvmalloc() and not
memblock_alloc(). memblock_alloc() will also not issue a warning and
return a block memory that can be invalid and cause kernel page fault when
saving stacks, as reported by the kernel test robot [1].
Fix this by moving page_ext_init_flatmem_late() below kmem_cache_init() so
that slab_is_available() is true during stack_depot_init(). SPARSEMEM
doesn't have this issue, as it doesn't do page_ext_init_flatmem_late(),
but a different page_ext_init() even later in the boot process.
Thanks to Mike Rapoport for pointing out the FLATMEM init ordering issue.
While at it, also actually resolve a checkpatch warning in stack_depot_init()
from DRM CI, which was supposed to be in the original patch already.

Patch series "lib, stackdepot: check stackdepot handle before accessing slabs", v2.
PATCH-1: Checks validity of a stackdepot handle before proceeding to
access stackdepot slab/objects.
PATCH-2: Adds a helper in stackdepot, to allow users to print stack
entries just by specifying the stackdepot handle. It also changes such
users to use this new interface.
PATCH-3: Adds a helper in stackdepot, to allow users to print stack
entries into buffers just by specifying the stackdepot handle and
destination buffer. It also changes such users to use this new interface.
This patch (of 3):
stack_depot_save allocates slabs that will be used for storing objects in
future.If this slab allocation fails we may get to a situation where space
allocation for a new stack_record fails, causing stack_depot_save to
return 0 as handle. If user of this handle ends up invoking
stack_depot_fetch with this handle value, current implementation of
stack_depot_fetch will end up using slab from wrong index. To avoid this
check handle value at the beginning.

filter_irq_stacks() has little to do with the stackdepot implementation,
except that it is usually used by users (such as KASAN) of stackdepot to
reduce the stack trace.
However, filter_irq_stacks() itself is not useful without a stack trace
as obtained by stack_trace_save() and friends.
Therefore, move filter_irq_stacks() to kernel/stacktrace.c, so that new
users of filter_irq_stacks() do not have to start depending on
STACKDEPOT only for filter_irq_stacks().

Add __stack_depot_save(), which provides more fine-grained control over
stackdepot's memory allocation behaviour, in case stackdepot runs out of
"stack slabs".
Normally stackdepot uses alloc_pages() in case it runs out of space;
passing can_alloc==false to __stack_depot_save() prohibits this, at the
cost of more likely failure to record a stack trace.
