This will eliminate a call between compilation units through
__kmem_cache_alloc_node() and allow better inlining of the allocation

In preparation for the next patch, move the kmalloc_slab() function to
the header, as it will have callers from two files, and make it inline.
To avoid unnecessary bloat, remove all size checks/warnings from
kmalloc_slab() as they just duplicate those in callers, especially after
recent changes to kmalloc_size_roundup(). We just need to adjust handling
of zero size in __do_kmalloc_node(). Also we can stop handling NULL
result from kmalloc_slab() there as that now cannot happen (unless
called too early during boot).
The size_index array becomes visible so rename it to a more specific
kmalloc_size_index.

This should result in better code. Currently kfree() makes a function
call between compilation units to __kmem_cache_free() which does its own
virt_to_slab(), throwing away the struct slab pointer we already had in
kfree(). Now it can be reused. Additionally kfree() can now inline the
whole SLUB freeing fastpath.
Also move over free_large_kmalloc() as the only callsites are now in
slub.c, and make it static.

We don't share the hooks between two slab implementations anymore so
they can be moved away from the header. As part of the move, also move
should_failslab() from slab_common.c as the pre_alloc hook uses it.
This means slab.h can stop including fault-inject.h and kmemleak.h.
Fix up some files that were depending on the includes transitively.

Commit b035f5a6d852 ("mm: slab: reduce the kmalloc() minimum alignment
if DMA bouncing possible") allows architectures with non-coherent DMA to
define a small ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN (e.g. sizeof(unsigned long long))
and this has been enabled on arm64. With KASAN_HW_TAGS enabled, however,
ARCH_SLAB_MINALIGN becomes 16 on arm64 (arch_slab_minalign() dynamically
selects it since commit d949a8155d13 ("mm: make minimum slab alignment a
runtime property")). This can lead to a situation where kmalloc-8 caches
are attempted to be created with a kmem_caches.size aligned to 16. When
the cache is mergeable, it can lead to kernel warnings like:

Pull slab fixes from Vlastimil Babka:
- stable fix to prevent list corruption when destroying caches with

- fix for a gotcha in kmalloc_size_roundup() when calling it with too
high size, discovered when recently a networking call site had to be
fixed for a different issue (David Laight)

slab: kmalloc_size_roundup() must not return 0 for non-zero size
mm/slab_common: fix slab_caches list corruption after kmem_cache_destroy()
|
|
The typical use of kmalloc_size_roundup() is:
ptr = kmalloc(sz = kmalloc_size_roundup(size), ...);
if (!ptr) return -ENOMEM.
This means it is vitally important that the returned value isn't less
than the argument even if the argument is insane.
In particular if kmalloc_slab() fails or the value is above
(MAX_ULONG - PAGE_SIZE) zero is returned and kmalloc() will return
its single zero-length buffer ZERO_SIZE_PTR.
Fix this by returning the input size if the size exceeds
KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE. kmalloc() will then return NULL as the size really is
too big.
kmalloc_slab() should not normally return NULL, unless called too early.
Again, returning zero is not the correct action as it can be in some
usage scenarios stored to a variable and only later cause kmalloc()
return ZERO_SIZE_PTR and subsequent crashes on access. Instead we can
simply stop checking the kmalloc_slab() result completely, as calling
kmalloc_size_roundup() too early would then result in an immediate crash
during boot and the developer noticing an issue in their code.

Function kmem_dump_obj() will splat if passed a pointer to a non-slab
object. So nothing calls it directly, instead calling kmem_valid_obj()
first to determine whether the passed pointer to a valid slab object. This
means that merging kmem_valid_obj() into kmem_dump_obj() will make the
code more concise. Therefore, convert kmem_dump_obj() to work the same
way as vmalloc_dump_obj(), removing the need for the kmem_dump_obj()
caller to check kmem_valid_obj(). After this, there are no remaining
calls to kmem_valid_obj() anymore, and it can be safely removed.

After the commit in Fixes:, if a module that created a slab cache does not
release all of its allocated objects before destroying the cache (at rmmod
time), we might end up releasing the kmem_cache object without removing it
from the slab_caches list thus corrupting the list as kmem_cache_destroy()
ignores the return value from shutdown_cache(), which in turn never removes
the kmem_cache object from slabs_list in case __kmem_cache_shutdown() fails
to release all of the cache's slabs.
This is easily observable on a kernel built with CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST=y
as after that ill release the system will immediately trip on list_add,
or list_del, assertions similar to the one shown below as soon as another
kmem_cache gets created, or destroyed:
[ 1041.213632] list_del corruption. next->prev should be ffff89f596fb5768, but was 52f1e5016aeee75d. (next=ffff89f595a1b268)

Another quick way to trigger this issue, in a kernel with CONFIG_SLUB=y,
is to set slub_debug to poison the released objects and then just run
cat /proc/slabinfo after removing the module that leaks slab objects,
in which case the kernel will panic:

When exploiting memory vulnerabilities, "heap spraying" is a common
technique targeting those related to dynamic memory allocation (i.e. the
"heap"), and it plays an important role in a successful exploitation.
Basically, it is to overwrite the memory area of vulnerable object by
triggering allocation in other subsystems or modules and therefore
getting a reference to the targeted memory location. It's usable on
various types of vulnerablity including use after free (UAF), heap out-
of-bound write and etc.
There are (at least) two reasons why the heap can be sprayed: 1) generic
slab caches are shared among different subsystems and modules, and
2) dedicated slab caches could be merged with the generic ones.
Currently these two factors cannot be prevented at a low cost: the first
one is a widely used memory allocation mechanism, and shutting down slab
merging completely via `slub_nomerge` would be overkill.
To efficiently prevent heap spraying, we propose the following approach:
to create multiple copies of generic slab caches that will never be
merged, and random one of them will be used at allocation. The random
selection is based on the address of code that calls `kmalloc()`, which
means it is static at runtime (rather than dynamically determined at
each time of allocation, which could be bypassed by repeatedly spraying
in brute force). In other words, the randomness of cache selection will
be with respect to the code address rather than time, i.e. allocations
in different code paths would most likely pick different caches,
although kmalloc() at each place would use the same cache copy whenever
it is executed. In this way, the vulnerable object and memory allocated
in other subsystems and modules will (most probably) be on different
slab caches, which prevents the object from being sprayed.
Meanwhile, the static random selection is further enhanced with a
per-boot random seed, which prevents the attacker from finding a usable
kmalloc that happens to pick the same cache with the vulnerable
subsystem/module by analyzing the open source code. In other words, with
the per-boot seed, the random selection is static during each time the
system starts and runs, but not across different system startups.
The overhead of performance has been tested on a 40-core x86 server by
comparing the results of `perf bench all` between the kernels with and
without this patch based on the latest linux-next kernel, which shows
minor difference. A subset of benchmarks are listed below:

Pull slab updates from Vlastimil Babka:
- SLAB deprecation:
Following the discussion at LSF/MM 2023 [1] and no objections, the
SLAB allocator is deprecated by renaming the config option (to make
its users notice) to CONFIG_SLAB_DEPRECATED with updated help text.
SLUB should be used instead. Existing defconfigs with CONFIG_SLAB are
also updated.
- SLAB_NO_MERGE kmem_cache flag (Jesper Dangaard Brouer):
There are (very limited) cases where kmem_cache merging is
undesirable, and existing ways to prevent it are hacky. Introduce a
new flag to do that cleanly and convert the existing hacky users.
Btrfs plans to use this for debug kernel builds (that use case is
always fine), networking for performance reasons (that should be very
rare).
- Replace the usage of weak PRNGs (David Keisar Schmidt):
In addition to using stronger RNGs for the security related features,
the code is a bit cleaner.
- Misc code cleanups (SeongJae Parki, Xiongwei Song, Zhen Lei, and
zhaoxinchao)

Do not create kmalloc() caches which are not aligned to
dma_get_cache_alignment(). There is no functional change since for
current architectures defining ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN, ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN
equals ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN (and dma_get_cache_alignment()). On
architectures without a specific ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN,
dma_get_cache_alignment() is 1, so no change to the kmalloc() caches.

In the slab variant of kmem_cache_init(), call new_kmalloc_cache() instead
of initialising the kmalloc_caches array directly. With this,
create_kmalloc_cache() is now only called from new_kmalloc_cache() in the

'slab/for-6.5/slab-deprecate' into slab/for-next
Merge the feature branches scheduled for 6.5:
- replace the usage of weak PRNGs, by David Keisar Schmidt
- introduce the SLAB_NO_MERGE kmem_cache flag, by Jesper Dangaard Brouer
- deprecate CONFIG_SLAB, with a planned removal, by myself
|
|
When CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM is enabled, we disable cache merging for
KMALLOC_NORMAL caches so they don't end up merged with a cache that uses
ad-hoc __GFP_ACCOUNT when allocating. This was implemented by setting
the refcount to -1, but now we have a proper SLAB_NO_MERGE flag, so use
that instead.

Allow API users of kmem_cache_create to specify that they don't want
any slab merge or aliasing (with similar sized objects). Use this in
kfence_test.
The SKB (sk_buff) kmem_cache slab is critical for network performance.
Network stack uses kmem_cache_{alloc,free}_bulk APIs to gain
performance by amortising the alloc/free cost.
For the bulk API to perform efficiently the slub fragmentation need to
be low. Especially for the SLUB allocator, the efficiency of bulk free
API depend on objects belonging to the same slab (page).
When running different network performance microbenchmarks, I started
to notice that performance was reduced (slightly) when machines had
longer uptimes. I believe the cause was 'skbuff_head_cache' got
aliased/merged into the general slub for 256 bytes sized objects (with
my kernel config, without CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY).
For SKB kmem_cache network stack have reasons for not merging, but it
varies depending on kernel config (e.g. CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY).
We want to explicitly set SLAB_NO_MERGE for this kmem_cache.
Another use case for the flag has been described by David Sterba [1]:
> This can be used for more fine grained control over the caches or for
> debugging builds where separate slabs can verify that no objects leak.
> The slab_nomerge boot option is too coarse and would need to be
> enabled on all testing hosts. There are some other ways how to disable
> merging, e.g. a slab constructor but this disables poisoning besides
> that it adds additional overhead. Other flags are internal and may
> have other semantics.
> A concrete example what motivates the flag. During 'btrfs balance'
> slab top reported huge increase in caches like
> 1330095 1330095 100% 0.10K 34105 39 136420K Acpi-ParseExt

The Slab allocator randomization inside slab_common.c
uses the prandom_u32 PRNG. That was added to prevent attackers to obtain
information on the heap state.
However, this PRNG turned out to be weak, as noted in commit c51f8f88d705
To fix it, we have changed the invocation of prandom_u32_state to get_random_u32
to ensure the PRNG is strong.
Since a modulo operation is applied right after that,
in the Fisher-Yates shuffle, we used get_random_u32_below, to achieve uniformity.

This will make it easier to free objects in situations when they can
come from either kmalloc() or kmem_cache_alloc(), and also allow
kfree_rcu() for freeing objects from kmem_cache_alloc().
For the SLAB and SLUB allocators this was always possible so with SLOB
gone, we can document it as supported.

With all "silently resizing" callers of ksize() refactored, remove the
logic in ksize() that would allow it to be used to effectively change
the size of an allocation (bypassing __alloc_size hints, etc). Users
wanting this feature need to either use kmalloc_size_roundup() before an
allocation, or use krealloc() directly.
For kfree_sensitive(), move the unpoisoning logic inline. Replace the
some of the partially open-coded ksize() in __do_krealloc with ksize()
now that it doesn't perform unpoisoning.
Adjust the KUnit tests to match the new ksize() behavior. Execution
tested with:

- The recommended replacement is CONFIG_SLUB, optionally with the new
CONFIG_SLUB_TINY tweaks for systems with 16MB or less RAM.
- Use cases that stopped working with CONFIG_SLUB_TINY instead of SLOB
should be reported to linux-mm@kvack.org and slab maintainers,

Distinguishing kmalloc(__GFP_RECLAIMABLE) can help against fragmentation
by grouping pages by mobility, but on tiny systems the extra memory
overhead of separate set of kmalloc-rcl caches will probably be worse,
and mobility grouping likely disabled anyway.
Thus with CONFIG_SLUB_TINY, don't create kmalloc-rcl caches and use the
regular ones.

With CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY not enabled, there are no
__check_heap_object() checks happening that would use the struct
kmem_cache useroffset and usersize fields. Yet the fields are still
initialized, preventing merging of otherwise compatible caches.
Also the fields contribute to struct kmem_cache size unnecessarily when
unused. Thus #ifdef them out completely when CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY is
disabled. In kmem_dump_obj() print object_size instead of usersize, as
that's actually the intention.
In a quick virtme boot test, this has reduced the number of caches in
/proc/slabinfo from 131 to 111.

kmalloc will round up the request size to a fixed size (mostly power
of 2), so there could be a extra space than what is requested, whose
size is the actual buffer size minus original request size.
To better detect out of bound access or abuse of this space, add
redzone sanity check for it.
In current kernel, some kmalloc user already knows the existence of
the space and utilizes it after calling 'ksize()' to know the real
size of the allocated buffer. So we skip the sanity check for objects
which have been called with ksize(), as treating them as legitimate
users. Kees Cook is working on sanitizing all these user cases,
by using kmalloc_size_roundup() to avoid ambiguous usages. And after
this is done, this special handling for ksize() can be removed.
In some cases, the free pointer could be saved inside the latter
part of object data area, which may overlap the redzone part(for
small sizes of kmalloc objects). As suggested by Hyeonggon Yoo,
force the free pointer to be in meta data area when kmalloc redzone
debug is enabled, to make all kmalloc objects covered by redzone
check.

For !CONFIG_TRACING kernels, the kmalloc() implementation tries (in cases where
the allocation size is build-time constant) to save a function call, by
inlining kmalloc_trace() to a kmem_cache_alloc() call.
However since commit 6edf2576a6cc ("mm/slub: enable debugging memory wasting of
kmalloc") this path now fails to pass the original request size to be
eventually recorded (for kmalloc caches with debugging enabled).
We could adjust the code to call __kmem_cache_alloc_node() as the
CONFIG_TRACING variant, but that would as a result inline a call with 5
parameters, bloating the kmalloc() call sites. The cost of extra function
call (to kmalloc_trace()) seems like a lesser evil.
It also appears that the !CONFIG_TRACING variant is incompatible with upcoming
hardening efforts [1] so it's easier if we just remove it now. Kernels with no
tracing are rare these days and the benefit is dubious anyway.

Resolved a conflict of modifying mm/slab.c __ksize() comment with a commit that
unifies __ksize() implementation into mm/slab_common.c

A patch from Feng Tang that enhances the existing debugfs alloc_traces
file for kmalloc caches with information about how much space is wasted
by allocations that needs less space than the particular kmalloc cache
provides.
|

In the effort to help the compiler reason about buffer sizes, the
__alloc_size attribute was added to allocators. This improves the scope
of the compiler's ability to apply CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS and (in the near
future) CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE. For most allocations, this works well,
as the vast majority of callers are not expecting to use more memory
than what they asked for.
There is, however, one common exception to this: anticipatory resizing
of kmalloc allocations. These cases all use ksize() to determine the
actual bucket size of a given allocation (e.g. 128 when 126 was asked
for). This comes in two styles in the kernel:
1) An allocation has been determined to be too small, and needs to be
resized. Instead of the caller choosing its own next best size, it
wants to minimize the number of calls to krealloc(), so it just uses
ksize() plus some additional bytes, forcing the realloc into the next
bucket size, from which it can learn how large it is now. For example:
data = krealloc(data, ksize(data) + 1, gfp);
data_len = ksize(data);
2) The minimum size of an allocation is calculated, but since it may
grow in the future, just use all the space available in the chosen
bucket immediately, to avoid needing to reallocate later. A good
example of this is skbuff's allocators:
data = kmalloc_reserve(size, gfp_mask, node, &pfmemalloc);
...
/* kmalloc(size) might give us more room than requested.
* Put skb_shared_info exactly at the end of allocated zone,

osize = ksize(data);
size = SKB_WITH_OVERHEAD(osize);
In both cases, the "how much was actually allocated?" question is answered
_after_ the allocation, where the compiler hinting is not in an easy place
to make the association any more. This mismatch between the compiler's
view of the buffer length and the code's intention about how much it is
going to actually use has already caused problems[1]. It is possible to
fix this by reordering the use of the "actual size" information.
We can serve the needs of users of ksize() and still have accurate buffer
length hinting for the compiler by doing the bucket size calculation
_before_ the allocation. Code can instead ask "how large an allocation
would I get for a given size?".
Introduce kmalloc_size_roundup(), to serve this function so we can start
replacing the "anticipatory resizing" uses of ksize().

The __malloc attribute should not be applied to "realloc" functions, as
the returned pointer may alias the storage of the prior pointer. Instead
of splitting __malloc from __alloc_size, which would be a huge amount of
churn, just create __realloc_size for the few cases where it is needed.
Thanks to Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@linux-m68k.org> for reporting build
failures with gcc-8 in earlier version which tried to remove the #ifdef.
While the "alloc_size" attribute is available on all GCC versions, I
forgot that it gets disabled explicitly by the kernel in GCC < 9.1 due
to misbehaviors. Add a note to the compiler_attributes.h entry for it.

kmalloc's API family is critical for mm, with one nature that it will
round up the request size to a fixed one (mostly power of 2). Say
when user requests memory for '2^n + 1' bytes, actually 2^(n+1) bytes
could be allocated, so in worst case, there is around 50% memory
space waste.
The wastage is not a big issue for requests that get allocated/freed
quickly, but may cause problems with objects that have longer life
time.
We've met a kernel boot OOM panic (v5.10), and from the dumped slab
info:
[ 26.062145] kmalloc-2k 814056KB 814056KB
From debug we found there are huge number of 'struct iova_magazine',
whose size is 1032 bytes (1024 + 8), so each allocation will waste
1016 bytes. Though the issue was solved by giving the right (bigger)
size of RAM, it is still nice to optimize the size (either use a
kmalloc friendly size or create a dedicated slab for it).
And from lkml archive, there was another crash kernel OOM case [1]
back in 2019, which seems to be related with the similar slab waste
situation, as the log is similar:
[ 4.332648] iommu: Adding device 0000:20:02.0 to group 16
[ 4.338946] swapper/0 invoked oom-killer: gfp_mask=0x6040c0(GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_COMP), nodemask=(null), order=0, oom_score_adj=0
...
[ 4.857565] kmalloc-2048 59164KB 59164KB
The crash kernel only has 256M memory, and 59M is pretty big here.
(Note: the related code has been changed and optimised in recent
kernel [2], these logs are just picked to demo the problem, also
a patch changing its size to 1024 bytes has been merged)
So add an way to track each kmalloc's memory waste info, and
leverage the existing SLUB debug framework (specifically
SLUB_STORE_USER) to show its call stack of original allocation,
so that user can evaluate the waste situation, identify some hot
spots and optimize accordingly, for a better utilization of memory.
The waste info is integrated into existing interface:
'/sys/kernel/debug/slab/kmalloc-xx/alloc_traces', one example of
'kmalloc-4k' after boot is:
126 ixgbe_alloc_q_vector+0xbe/0x830 [ixgbe] waste=233856/1856 age=280763/281414/282065 pid=1330 cpus=32 nodes=1
__kmem_cache_alloc_node+0x11f/0x4e0
__kmalloc_node+0x4e/0x140
ixgbe_alloc_q_vector+0xbe/0x830 [ixgbe]
ixgbe_init_interrupt_scheme+0x2ae/0xc90 [ixgbe]
ixgbe_probe+0x165f/0x1d20 [ixgbe]
local_pci_probe+0x78/0xc0
work_for_cpu_fn+0x26/0x40
...
which means in 'kmalloc-4k' slab, there are 126 requests of
2240 bytes which got a 4KB space (wasting 1856 bytes each
and 233856 bytes in total), from ixgbe_alloc_q_vector().
And when system starts some real workload like multiple docker
instances, there could are more severe waste.

The "common kmalloc v4" series [1] by Hyeonggon Yoo.
- Improves the mm/slab_common.c wrappers to allow deleting duplicated
code between SLAB and SLUB.
- Large kmalloc() allocations in SLAB are passed to page allocator like
in SLUB, reducing number of kmalloc caches.
- Removes the {kmem_cache_alloc,kmalloc}_node variants of tracepoints,
node id parameter added to non-_node variants.

The cause is inside kmem_cache_destroy():
kmem_cache_destroy
acquire lock/mutex
shutdown_cache
schedule_work(kmem_cache_release) (if RCU flag set)
release lock/mutex
kmem_cache_release (if RCU flag not set)
In some certain timing, the scheduled work could be run before
the next RCU flag checking, which can then get a wrong value
and lead to double kmem_cache_release().
Fix it by caching the RCU flag inside protected area, just like 'refcnt'

slab_mutex/cpu_hotplug_lock
A circular locking problem is reported by lockdep due to the following
circular locking dependency.
+--> cpu_hotplug_lock --> slab_mutex --> kn->active --+
| |
+-----------------------------------------------------+
The forward cpu_hotplug_lock ==> slab_mutex ==> kn->active dependency
happens in
kmem_cache_destroy(): cpus_read_lock(); mutex_lock(&slab_mutex);
==> sysfs_slab_unlink()
==> kobject_del()
==> kernfs_remove()
==> __kernfs_remove()
==> kernfs_drain(): rwsem_acquire(&kn->dep_map, ...);
The backward kn->active ==> cpu_hotplug_lock dependency happens in
kernfs_fop_write_iter(): kernfs_get_active();
==> slab_attr_store()
==> cpu_partial_store()
==> flush_all(): cpus_read_lock()
One way to break this circular locking chain is to avoid holding
cpu_hotplug_lock and slab_mutex while deleting the kobject in
sysfs_slab_unlink() which should be equivalent to doing a write_lock
and write_unlock pair of the kn->active virtual lock.
Since the kobject structures are not protected by slab_mutex or the
cpu_hotplug_lock, we can certainly release those locks before doing
the delete operation.
Move sysfs_slab_unlink() and sysfs_slab_release() to the newly
created kmem_cache_release() and call it outside the slab_mutex &
cpu_hotplug_lock critical sections. There will be a slight delay
in the deletion of sysfs files if kmem_cache_release() is called
indirectly from a work function.

Drop kmem_alloc event class, and define kmalloc and kmem_cache_alloc
using TRACE_EVENT() macro.
And then this patch does:
- Do not pass pointer to struct kmem_cache to trace_kmalloc.
gfp flag is enough to know if it's accounted or not.
- Avoid dereferencing s->object_size and s->size when not using kmem_cache_alloc event.
- Avoid dereferencing s->name in when not using kmem_cache_free event.
- Adjust s->size to SLOB_UNITS(s->size) * SLOB_UNIT in SLOB

Drop kmem_alloc event class, rename kmem_alloc_node to kmem_alloc, and
remove _node postfix for NUMA version of tracepoints.
This will break some tools that depend on {kmem_cache_alloc,kmalloc}_node,
but at this point maintaining both kmem_alloc and kmem_alloc_node
event classes does not makes sense at all.
