kernel.h is being used as a dump for all kinds of stuff for a long time. Here is the attempt to start cleaning it up by splitting out kstrtox() and simple_strtox() helpers. At the same time convert users in header and lib folders to use new header. Though for time being include new header back to kernel.h to avoid twisted indirected includes for existing users.

Some devices require exclusive write access to shared virtual memory (SVM) ranges to perform atomic operations on that memory. This requires CPU page tables to be updated to deny access whilst atomic operations are occurring. In order to do this introduce a new swap entry type (SWP_DEVICE_EXCLUSIVE). When a SVM range needs to be marked for exclusive access by a device all page table mappings for the particular range are replaced with device exclusive swap entries. This causes any CPU access to the page to result in a fault. Faults are resovled by replacing the faulting entry with the original mapping. This results in MMU notifiers being called which a driver uses to update access permissions such as revoking atomic access. After notifiers have been called the device will no longer have exclusive access to the region. Walking of the page tables to find the target pages is handled by get_user_pages() rather than a direct page table walk. A direct page table walk similar to what migrate_vma_collect()/unmap() does could also have been utilised. However this resulted in more code similar in functionality to what get_user_pages() provides as page faulting is required to make the PTEs present and to break COW.

MMU notifier ranges have a migrate_pgmap_owner field which is used by drivers to store a pointer. This is subsequently used by the driver callback to filter MMU_NOTIFY_MIGRATE events. Other notifier event types can also benefit from this filtering, so rename the 'migrate_pgmap_owner' field to 'owner' and create a new notifier initialisation function to initialise this field.

The behaviour of try_to_unmap_one() is difficult to follow because it performs different operations based on a fairly large set of flags used in different combinations. TTU_MUNLOCK is one such flag. However it is exclusively used by try_to_munlock() which specifies no other flags. Therefore rather than overload try_to_unmap_one() with unrelated behaviour split this out into it's own function and remove the flag.

So there is no side effect when this feature is enabled with no HugeTLB pages in the system. Someone may want to enable this feature in the compiler time instead of using boot command line.

When we free a HugeTLB page to the buddy allocator, we need to allocate the vmemmap pages associated with it. However, we may not be able to allocate the vmemmap pages when the system is under memory pressure. In this case, we just refuse to free the HugeTLB page. This changes behavior in some corner cases as listed below: 1) Failing to free a huge page triggered by the user (decrease nr_pages). User needs to try again later. 2) Failing to free a surplus huge page when freed by the application. Try again later when freeing a huge page next time. 3) Failing to dissolve a free huge page on ZONE_MOVABLE via offline_pages(). This can happen when we have plenty of ZONE_MOVABLE memory, but not enough kernel memory to allocate vmemmmap pages. We may even be able to migrate huge page contents, but will not be able to dissolve the source huge page. This will prevent an offline operation and is unfortunate as memory offlining is expected to succeed on movable zones. Users that depend on memory hotplug to succeed for movable zones should carefully consider whether the memory savings gained from this feature are worth the risk of possibly not being able to offline memory in certain situations. 4) Failing to dissolve a huge page on CMA/ZONE_MOVABLE via alloc_contig_range() - once we have that handling in place. Mainly affects CMA and virtio-mem. Similar to 3). virito-mem will handle migration errors gracefully. CMA might be able to fallback on other free areas within the CMA region. Vmemmap pages are allocated from the page freeing context. In order for those allocations to be not disruptive (e.g. trigger oom killer) __GFP_NORETRY is used. hugetlb_lock is dropped for the allocation because a non sleeping allocation would be too fragile and it could fail too easily under memory pressure. GFP_ATOMIC or other modes to access memory reserves is not used because we want to prevent consuming reserves under heavy hugetlb freeing.

This introduces a new sysctl vm.percpu_pagelist_high_fraction. It is similar to the old vm.percpu_pagelist_fraction. The old sysctl increased both pcp->batch and pcp->high with the higher pcp->high potentially reducing zone->lock contention. However, the higher pcp->batch value also potentially increased allocation latency while the PCP was refilled. This sysctl only adjusts pcp->high so that zone->lock contention is potentially reduced but allocation latency during a PCP refill remains the same. # grep -E "high:|batch" /proc/zoneinfo | tail -2 high: 649 batch: 63 # sysctl vm.percpu_pagelist_high_fraction=8 # grep -E "high:|batch" /proc/zoneinfo | tail -2 high: 35071 batch: 63 # sysctl vm.percpu_pagelist_high_fraction=64 high: 4383 batch: 63 # sysctl vm.percpu_pagelist_high_fraction=0 high: 649 batch: 63 [mgorman@techsingularity.net: fix documentation] Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210528151010.GQ30378@techsingularity.net Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210525080119.5455-7-mgorman@techsingularity.net Signed-off-by:Mel Gorman <mgorman@techsingularity.net> Acked-by:

Patch series "Calculate pcp->high based on zone sizes and active CPUs", v2. The per-cpu page allocator (PCP) is meant to reduce contention on the zone lock but the sizing of batch and high is archaic and neither takes the zone size into account or the number of CPUs local to a zone. With larger zones and more CPUs per node, the contention is getting worse. Furthermore, the fact that vm.percpu_pagelist_fraction adjusts both batch and high values means that the sysctl can reduce zone lock contention but also increase allocation latencies. This series disassociates pcp->high from pcp->batch and then scales pcp->high based on the size of the local zone with limited impact to reclaim and accounting for active CPUs but leaves pcp->batch static. It also adapts the number of pages that can be on the pcp list based on recent freeing patterns. The motivation is partially to adjust to larger memory sizes but is also driven by the fact that large batches of page freeing via release_pages() often shows zone contention as a major part of the problem. Another is a bug report based on an older kernel where a multi-terabyte process can takes several minutes to exit. A workaround was to use vm.percpu_pagelist_fraction to increase the pcp->high value but testing indicated that a production workload could not use the same values because of an increase in allocation latencies. Unfortunately, I cannot reproduce this test case myself as the multi-terabyte machines are in active use but it should alleviate the problem. The series aims to address both and partially acts as a pre-requisite. pcp only works with order-0 which is useless for SLUB (when using high orders) and THP (unconditionally). To store high-order pages on PCP, the pcp->high values need to be increased first. This patch (of 6): The vm.percpu_pagelist_fraction is used to increase the batch and high limits for the per-cpu page allocator (PCP). The intent behind the sysctl is to reduce zone lock acquisition when allocating/freeing pages but it has a problem. While it can decrease contention, it can also increase latency on the allocation side due to unreasonably large batch sizes. This leads to games where an administrator adjusts percpu_pagelist_fraction on the fly to work around contention and allocation latency problems. This series aims to alleviate the problems with zone lock contention while avoiding the allocation-side latency problems. For the purposes of review, it's easier to remove this sysctl now and reintroduce a similar sysctl later in the series that deals only with pcp->high.

The KUNIT_EXPECT_KASAN_FAIL() macro currently uses KUNIT_EXPECT_EQ() to compare fail_data.report_expected and fail_data.report_found. This always gave a somewhat useless error message on failure, but the addition of extra compile-time checking with READ_ONCE() has caused it to get much longer, and be truncated before anything useful is displayed. Instead, just check fail_data.report_found by hand (we've just set report_expected to 'true'), and print a better failure message with KUNIT_FAIL(). Because of this, report_expected is no longer used anywhere, and can be removed. Beforehand, a failure in: KUNIT_EXPECT_KASAN_FAIL(test, ((volatile char *)area)[3100]); would have looked like: [22:00:34] [FAILED] vmalloc_oob [22:00:34] # vmalloc_oob: EXPECTATION FAILED at lib/test_kasan.c:991 [22:00:34] Expected ({ do { extern void __compiletime_assert_705(void) __attribute__((__error__("Unsupported access size for {READ,WRITE}_ONCE()."))); if (!((sizeof(fail_data.report_expected) == sizeof(char) || sizeof(fail_data.repp [22:00:34] not ok 45 - vmalloc_oob With this change, it instead looks like: [22:04:04] [FAILED] vmalloc_oob [22:04:04] # vmalloc_oob: EXPECTATION FAILED at lib/test_kasan.c:993 [22:04:04] KASAN failure expected in "((volatile char *)area)[3100]", but none occurred [22:04:04] not ok 45 - vmalloc_oob Also update the example failure in the documentation to reflect this.

When computing the access permissions of a shadow page, use the effective permissions of the walk up to that point, i.e. the logic AND of its parents' permissions. Two guest PxE entries that point at the same table gfn need to be shadowed with different shadow pages if their parents' permissions are different. KVM currently uses the effective permissions of the last non-leaf entry for all non-leaf entries. Because all non-leaf SPTEs have full ("uwx") permissions, and the effective permissions are recorded only in role.access and merged into the leaves, this can lead to incorrect reuse of a shadow page and eventually to a missing guest protection page fault. For example, here is a shared pagetable: pgd[] pud[] pmd[] virtual address pointers /->pmd1(u--)->pte1(uw-)->page1 <- ptr1 (u--) /->pud1(uw-)--->pmd2(uw-)->pte2(uw-)->page2 <- ptr2 (uw-) pgd-| (shared pmd[] as above) \->pud2(u--)--->pmd1(u--)->pte1(uw-)->page1 <- ptr3 (u--) \->pmd2(uw-)->pte2(uw-)->page2 <- ptr4 (u--) pud1 and pud2 point to the same pmd table, so: - ptr1 and ptr3 points to the same page. - ptr2 and ptr4 points to the same page. (pud1 and pud2 here are pud entries, while pmd1 and pmd2 here are pmd entries) - First, the guest reads from ptr1 first and KVM prepares a shadow page table with role.access=u--, from ptr1's pud1 and ptr1's pmd1. "u--" comes from the effective permissions of pgd, pud1 and pmd1, which are stored in pt->access. "u--" is used also to get the pagetable for pud1, instead of "uw-". - Then the guest writes to ptr2 and KVM reuses pud1 which is present. The hypervisor set up a shadow page for ptr2 with pt->access is "uw-" even though the pud1 pmd (because of the incorrect argument to kvm_mmu_get_page in the previous step) has role.access="u--". - Then the guest reads from ptr3. The hypervisor reuses pud1's shadow pmd for pud2, because both use "u--" for their permissions. Thus, the shadow pmd already includes entries for both pmd1 and pmd2. - At last, the guest writes to ptr4. This causes no vmexit or pagefault, because pud1's shadow page structures included an "uw-" page even though its role.access was "u--". Any kind of shared pagetable might have the similar problem when in virtual machine without TDP enabled if the permissions are different from different ancestors. In order to fix the problem, we change pt->access to be an array, and any access in it will not include permissions ANDed from child ptes. The test code is: https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/20210603050537.19605-1-jiangshanlai@gmail.com/ Remember to test it with TDP disabled. The problem had existed long before the commit 41074d07 ("KVM: MMU: Fix inherited permissions for emulated guest pte updates"), and it is hard to find which is the culprit. So there is no fixes tag here.

Add a kconfig knob which allows for unprivileged bpf to be disabled by default. If set, the knob sets /proc/sys/kernel/unprivileged_bpf_disabled to value of 2. This still allows a transition of 2 -> {0,1} through an admin. Similarly, this also still keeps 1 -> {1} behavior intact, so that once set to permanently disabled, it cannot be undone aside from a reboot. We've also added extra2 with max of 2 for the procfs handler, so that an admin still has a chance to toggle between 0 <-> 2. Either way, as an additional alternative, applications can make use of CAP_BPF that we added a while ago. Signed-off-by:Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net> Signed-off-by:
