[ Upstream commit 1a251f52cf ]
This just standardizes the use of MIN() and MAX() macros, with the very
traditional semantics. The goal is to use these for C constant
expressions and for top-level / static initializers, and so be able to
simplify the min()/max() macros.
These macro names were used by various kernel code - they are very
traditional, after all - and all such users have been fixed up, with a
few different approaches:
- trivial duplicated macro definitions have been removed
Note that 'trivial' here means that it's obviously kernel code that
already included all the major kernel headers, and thus gets the new
generic MIN/MAX macros automatically.
- non-trivial duplicated macro definitions are guarded with #ifndef
This is the "yes, they define their own versions, but no, the include
situation is not entirely obvious, and maybe they don't get the
generic version automatically" case.
- strange use case #1
A couple of drivers decided that the way they want to describe their
versioning is with
#define MAJ 1
#define MIN 2
#define DRV_VERSION __stringify(MAJ) "." __stringify(MIN)
which adds zero value and I just did my Alexander the Great
impersonation, and rewrote that pointless Gordian knot as
#define DRV_VERSION "1.2"
instead.
- strange use case #2
A couple of drivers thought that it's a good idea to have a random
'MIN' or 'MAX' define for a value or index into a table, rather than
the traditional macro that takes arguments.
These values were re-written as C enum's instead. The new
function-line macros only expand when followed by an open
parenthesis, and thus don't clash with enum use.
Happily, there weren't really all that many of these cases, and a lot of
users already had the pattern of using '#ifndef' guarding (or in one
case just using '#undef MIN') before defining their own private version
that does the same thing. I left such cases alone.

commit 6a204d4b14 upstream.
Commit 524c48072e ("mm/page_alloc: rename ALLOC_HIGH to
ALLOC_MIN_RESERVE") is the start of a series that explains how __GFP_HIGH,
which implies ALLOC_MIN_RESERVE, is going to be used instead of
__GFP_ATOMIC for high atomic reserves.
Commit eb2e2b425c ("mm/page_alloc: explicitly record high-order atomic
allocations in alloc_flags") introduced ALLOC_HIGHATOMIC for such
allocations of order higher than 0. It still used __GFP_ATOMIC, though.
Then, commit 1ebbb21811 ("mm/page_alloc: explicitly define how
__GFP_HIGH non-blocking allocations accesses reserves") just turned that
check for !__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM, ignoring that high atomic reserves were
expected to test for __GFP_HIGH.
This leads to high atomic reserves being added for high-order GFP_NOWAIT
allocations and others that clear __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM, which is
unexpected. Later, those reserves lead to 0-order allocations going to
the slow path and starting reclaim.

commit f2d2f9598e upstream.
Introduce and use {pgd,p4d}_populate_kernel() in core MM code when
populating PGD and P4D entries for the kernel address space. These
helpers ensure proper synchronization of page tables when updating the
kernel portion of top-level page tables.
Until now, the kernel has relied on each architecture to handle
synchronization of top-level page tables in an ad-hoc manner. For
example, see commit 9b861528a8 ("x86-64, mem: Update all PGDs for direct
mapping and vmemmap mapping changes").
However, this approach has proven fragile for following reasons:
1) It is easy to forget to perform the necessary page table
synchronization when introducing new changes.
For instance, commit 4917f55b4e ("mm/sparse-vmemmap: improve memory
savings for compound devmaps") overlooked the need to synchronize
page tables for the vmemmap area.
2) It is also easy to overlook that the vmemmap and direct mapping areas
must not be accessed before explicit page table synchronization.
For example, commit 8d400913c2 ("x86/vmemmap: handle unpopulated
sub-pmd ranges")) caused crashes by accessing the vmemmap area
before calling sync_global_pgds().
To address this, as suggested by Dave Hansen, introduce _kernel() variants
of the page table population helpers, which invoke architecture-specific
hooks to properly synchronize page tables. These are introduced in a new
header file, include/linux/pgalloc.h, so they can be called from common
code.
They reuse existing infrastructure for vmalloc and ioremap.
Synchronization requirements are determined by ARCH_PAGE_TABLE_SYNC_MASK,
and the actual synchronization is performed by
arch_sync_kernel_mappings().
This change currently targets only x86_64, so only PGD and P4D level
helpers are introduced. Currently, these helpers are no-ops since no
architecture sets PGTBL_{PGD,P4D}_MODIFIED in ARCH_PAGE_TABLE_SYNC_MASK.
In theory, PUD and PMD level helpers can be added later if needed by other
architectures. For now, 32-bit architectures (x86-32 and arm) only handle
PGTBL_PMD_MODIFIED, so p*d_populate_kernel() will never affect them unless
we introduce a PMD level helper.

[ Upstream commit b4efccec8d ]
object_err() reports details of an object for further debugging, such as
the freelist pointer, redzone, etc. However, if the pointer is invalid,
attempting to access object metadata can lead to a crash since it does
not point to a valid object.
One known path to the crash is when alloc_consistency_checks()
determines the pointer to the allocated object is invalid because of a
freelist corruption, and calls object_err() to report it. The debug code
should report and handle the corruption gracefully and not crash in the
process.
In case the pointer is NULL or check_valid_pointer() returns false for
the pointer, only print the pointer value and skip accessing metadata.

commit 023f47a825 upstream.
If an ->anon_vma is attached to the VMA, collapse_and_free_pmd() requires
it to be locked.
Page table traversal is allowed under any one of the mmap lock, the
anon_vma lock (if the VMA is associated with an anon_vma), and the
mapping lock (if the VMA is associated with a mapping); and so to be
able to remove page tables, we must hold all three of them.
retract_page_tables() bails out if an ->anon_vma is attached, but does
this check before holding the mmap lock (as the comment above the check
explains).
If we racily merged an existing ->anon_vma (shared with a child
process) from a neighboring VMA, subsequent rmap traversals on pages
belonging to the child will be able to see the page tables that we are
concurrently removing while assuming that nothing else can access them.
Repeat the ->anon_vma check once we hold the mmap lock to ensure that
there really is no concurrent page table access.
Hitting this bug causes a lockdep warning in collapse_and_free_pmd(),
in the line "lockdep_assert_held_write(&vma->anon_vma->root->rwsem)".
It can also lead to use-after-free access.

to bind it to movable nodes (a node only has movable zone, like a node

It can be reproduced with command:

(where node 4 is a movable node)

The reason is that in this case, the target cpuset nodes only have
movable zone, while the creation of an OS in docker sometimes needs to
allocate memory in non-movable zones (dma/dma32/normal) like
GFP_HIGHUSER, and the cpuset limit forbids the allocation, then
out-of-memory killing is involved even when normal nodes and movable
nodes both have many free memory.
The OOM killer cannot help to resolve the situation as there is no
usable memory for the request in the cpuset scope. The only reasonable
measure to take is to fail the allocation right away and have the caller
to deal with it.
So add a check for cases like this in the slowpath of allocation, and
bail out early returning NULL for the allocation.
As page allocation is one of the hottest path in kernel, this check will
hurt all users with sane cpuset configuration, add a static branch check
and detect the abnormal config in cpuset memory binding setup so that
the extra check cost in page allocation is not paid by everyone.
[thanks to Micho Hocko and David Rientjes for suggesting not handling
it inside OOM code, adding cpuset check, refining comments]

When memory_failure() is called for a already hwpoisoned pfn,
kill_accessing_process() will be called to kill current task. However, if
the vma of the accessing vaddr is VM_PFNMAP, walk_page_range() will skip
the vma in walk_page_test() and return 0.
Before commit aaf99ac2ce ("mm/hwpoison: do not send SIGBUS to processes
with recovered clean pages"), kill_accessing_process() will return EFAULT.
For x86, the current task will be killed in kill_me_maybe().
However, after this commit, kill_accessing_process() simplies return 0,
that means UCE is handled properly, but it doesn't actually. In such
case, the user task will trigger UCE infinitely.
To fix it, add .test_walk callback for hwpoison_walk_ops to scan all vmas.

commit dde30854bd upstream.
The mm/debug_vm_pagetable test allocates manually page table entries for
the tests it runs, using also its manually allocated mm_struct. That in
itself is ok, but when it exits, at destroy_args() it fails to clear those
entries with the *_clear functions.
The problem is that leaves stale entries. If another process allocates an
mm_struct with a pgd at the same address, it may end up running into the
stale entry. This is happening in practice on a debug kernel with
CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_PGTABLE=y, for example this is the output with some extra
debugging I added (it prints a warning trace if pgtables_bytes goes
negative, in addition to the warning at check_mm() function):

[ 2.559022] BUG: Bad rss-counter state mm:000000002267cc9e type:MM_ANONPAGES val:1
[ 2.559037] BUG: non-zero pgtables_bytes on freeing mm: -6144
Here the modprobe process ended up with an allocated mm_struct from the
mm_struct slab that was used before by the debug_vm_pgtable test. That is
not a problem, since the mm_struct is initialized again etc., however, if
it ends up using the same pgd table, it bumps into the old stale entry
when clearing/freeing the page table entries, so it tries to free an entry
already gone (that one which was allocated by the debug_vm_pgtable test),
which also explains the negative pgtables_bytes since it's accounting for
not allocated entries in the current process.
As far as I looked pgd_{alloc,free} etc. does not clear entries, and
clearing of the entries is explicitly done in the free_pgtables->
free_pgd_range->free_p4d_range->free_pud_range->free_pmd_range->
free_pte_range path. However, the debug_vm_pgtable test does not call
free_pgtables, since it allocates mm_struct and entries manually for its
test and eg. not goes through page faults. So it also should clear
manually the entries before exit at destroy_args().
This problem was noticed on a reboot X number of times test being done on
a powerpc host, with a debug kernel with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_PGTABLE enabled.
Depends on the system, but on a 100 times reboot loop the problem could
manifest once or twice, if a process ends up getting the right mm->pgd
entry with the stale entries used by mm/debug_vm_pagetable. After using
this patch, I couldn't reproduce/experience the problems anymore. I was
able to reproduce the problem as well on latest upstream kernel (6.16).
I also modified destroy_args() to use mmput() instead of mmdrop(), there
is no reason to hold mm_users reference and not release the mm_struct
entirely, and in the output above with my debugging prints I already had
patched it to use mmput, it did not fix the problem, but helped in the
debugging as well.

[ Upstream commit 59305202c6 ]
Memory hot remove unmaps and tears down various kernel page table regions
as required. The ptdump code can race with concurrent modifications of
the kernel page tables. When leaf entries are modified concurrently, the
dump code may log stale or inconsistent information for a VA range, but
this is otherwise not harmful.
But when intermediate levels of kernel page table are freed, the dump code
will continue to use memory that has been freed and potentially
reallocated for another purpose. In such cases, the ptdump code may
dereference bogus addresses, leading to a number of potential problems.
To avoid the above mentioned race condition, platforms such as arm64,
riscv and s390 take memory hotplug lock, while dumping kernel page table
via the sysfs interface /sys/kernel/debug/kernel_page_tables.
Similar race condition exists while checking for pages that might have
been marked W+X via /sys/kernel/debug/kernel_page_tables/check_wx_pages
which in turn calls ptdump_check_wx(). Instead of solving this race
condition again, let's just move the memory hotplug lock inside generic
ptdump_check_wx() which will benefit both the scenarios.
Drop get_online_mems() and put_online_mems() combination from all existing
platform ptdump code paths.

[ Upstream commit 8ec396d05d ]
Patch series "mm: reinstate ability to map write-sealed memfd mappings
read-only".
In commit 158978945f ("mm: perform the mapping_map_writable() check
after call_mmap()") (and preceding changes in the same series) it became
possible to mmap() F_SEAL_WRITE sealed memfd mappings read-only.
Commit 5de195060b ("mm: resolve faulty mmap_region() error path
behaviour") unintentionally undid this logic by moving the
mapping_map_writable() check before the shmem_mmap() hook is invoked,
thereby regressing this change.
This series reworks how we both permit write-sealed mappings being mapped
read-only and disallow mprotect() from undoing the write-seal, fixing this
regression.
We also add a regression test to ensure that we do not accidentally
regress this in future.
Thanks to Julian Orth for reporting this regression.
This patch (of 2):
In commit 158978945f ("mm: perform the mapping_map_writable() check
after call_mmap()") (and preceding changes in the same series) it became
possible to mmap() F_SEAL_WRITE sealed memfd mappings read-only.
This was previously unnecessarily disallowed, despite the man page
documentation indicating that it would be, thereby limiting the usefulness
of F_SEAL_WRITE logic.
We fixed this by adapting logic that existed for the F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE
seal (one which disallows future writes to the memfd) to also be used for
F_SEAL_WRITE.
For background - the F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE seal clears VM_MAYWRITE for a
read-only mapping to disallow mprotect() from overriding the seal - an
operation performed by seal_check_write(), invoked from shmem_mmap(), the
f_op->mmap() hook used by shmem mappings.
By extending this to F_SEAL_WRITE and critically - checking
mapping_map_writable() to determine if we may map the memfd AFTER we
invoke shmem_mmap() - the desired logic becomes possible. This is because
mapping_map_writable() explicitly checks for VM_MAYWRITE, which we will
have cleared.
Commit 5de195060b ("mm: resolve faulty mmap_region() error path
behaviour") unintentionally undid this logic by moving the
mapping_map_writable() check before the shmem_mmap() hook is invoked,
thereby regressing this change.
We reinstate this functionality by moving the check out of shmem_mmap()
and instead performing it in do_mmap() at the point at which VMA flags are
being determined, which seems in any case to be a more appropriate place
in which to make this determination.
In order to achieve this we rework memfd seal logic to allow us access to
this information using existing logic and eliminate the clearing of
VM_MAYWRITE from seal_check_write() which we are performing in do_mmap()
instead.

[ Upstream commit e8e17ee90e ]
Patch series "permit write-sealed memfd read-only shared mappings", v4.
The man page for fcntl() describing memfd file seals states the following
about F_SEAL_WRITE:-
Furthermore, trying to create new shared, writable memory-mappings via
mmap(2) will also fail with EPERM.
With emphasis on 'writable'. In turns out in fact that currently the
kernel simply disallows all new shared memory mappings for a memfd with
F_SEAL_WRITE applied, rendering this documentation inaccurate.
This matters because users are therefore unable to obtain a shared mapping
to a memfd after write sealing altogether, which limits their usefulness.
This was reported in the discussion thread [1] originating from a bug
report [2].
This is a product of both using the struct address_space->i_mmap_writable
atomic counter to determine whether writing may be permitted, and the
kernel adjusting this counter when any VM_SHARED mapping is performed and
more generally implicitly assuming VM_SHARED implies writable.
It seems sensible that we should only update this mapping if VM_MAYWRITE
is specified, i.e. whether it is possible that this mapping could at any
point be written to.
If we do so then all we need to do to permit write seals to function as
documented is to clear VM_MAYWRITE when mapping read-only. It turns out
this functionality already exists for F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE - we can
therefore simply adapt this logic to do the same for F_SEAL_WRITE.
We then hit a chicken and egg situation in mmap_region() where the check
for VM_MAYWRITE occurs before we are able to clear this flag. To work
around this, perform this check after we invoke call_mmap(), with careful
consideration of error paths.
Thanks to Andy Lutomirski for the suggestion!

This patch (of 3):
There is a general assumption that VMAs with the VM_SHARED flag set are
writable. If the VM_MAYWRITE flag is not set, then this is simply not the
case.
Update those checks which affect the struct address_space->i_mmap_writable
field to explicitly test for this by introducing
[vma_]is_shared_maywrite() helper functions.
This remains entirely conservative, as the lack of VM_MAYWRITE guarantees
that the VMA cannot be written to.

commit 47b0f6d8f0 upstream.
When netpoll is enabled, calling pr_warn_once() while holding
kmemleak_lock in mem_pool_alloc() can cause a deadlock due to lock
inversion with the netconsole subsystem. This occurs because
pr_warn_once() may trigger netpoll, which eventually leads to
__alloc_skb() and back into kmemleak code, attempting to reacquire
kmemleak_lock.
This is the path for the deadlock.
mem_pool_alloc()
-> raw_spin_lock_irqsave(&kmemleak_lock, flags);
-> pr_warn_once()
-> netconsole subsystem
-> netpoll
-> __alloc_skb
-> __create_object
-> raw_spin_lock_irqsave(&kmemleak_lock, flags);
Fix this by setting a flag and issuing the pr_warn_once() after
kmemleak_lock is released.

commit d1534ae23c upstream.
A soft lockup warning was observed on a relative small system x86-64
system with 16 GB of memory when running a debug kernel with kmemleak
enabled.
watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#8 stuck for 33s! [kworker/8:1:134]
The test system was running a workload with hot unplug happening in
parallel. Then kemleak decided to disable itself due to its inability to
allocate more kmemleak objects. The debug kernel has its
CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK_MEM_POOL_SIZE set to 40,000.
The soft lockup happened in kmemleak_do_cleanup() when the existing
kmemleak objects were being removed and deleted one-by-one in a loop via a
workqueue. In this particular case, there are at least 40,000 objects
that need to be processed and given the slowness of a debug kernel and the
fact that a raw_spinlock has to be acquired and released in
__delete_object(), it could take a while to properly handle all these
objects.
As kmemleak has been disabled in this case, the object removal and
deletion process can be further optimized as locking isn't really needed.
However, it is probably not worth the effort to optimize for such an edge
case that should rarely happen. So the simple solution is to call
cond_resched() at periodic interval in the iteration loop to avoid soft
lockup.

commit 694d6b9992 upstream.
Commit 48b4800a1c ("zsmalloc: page migration support") added support for
migrating zsmalloc pages using the movable_operations migration framework.
However, the commit did not take into account that zsmalloc supports
migration only when CONFIG_COMPACTION is enabled. Tracing shows that
zsmalloc was still passing the __GFP_MOVABLE flag even when compaction is
not supported.
This can result in unmovable pages being allocated from movable page
blocks (even without stealing page blocks), ZONE_MOVABLE and CMA area.
Possible user visible effects:
- Some ZONE_MOVABLE memory can be not actually movable
- CMA allocation can fail because of this
- Increased memory fragmentation due to ignoring the page mobility
grouping feature
I'm not really sure who uses kernels without compaction support, though :(
To fix this, clear the __GFP_MOVABLE flag when
!IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_COMPACTION).

commit be6e843fc5 upstream.
When migrating a THP, concurrent access to the PMD migration entry during
a deferred split scan can lead to an invalid address access, as
illustrated below. To prevent this invalid access, it is necessary to
check the PMD migration entry and return early. In this context, there is
no need to use pmd_to_swp_entry and pfn_swap_entry_to_page to verify the
equality of the target folio. Since the PMD migration entry is locked, it
cannot be served as the target.
Mailing list discussion and explanation from Hugh Dickins: "An anon_vma
lookup points to a location which may contain the folio of interest, but
might instead contain another folio: and weeding out those other folios is
precisely what the "folio != pmd_folio((*pmd)" check (and the "risk of
replacing the wrong folio" comment a few lines above it) is for."

The issue may be triggered by damon, offline_page, page_idle, etc, which
will increase the refcount of page table.
1. The page table itself will be discarded after reporting the
"nonzero mapcount".
2. The HugeTLB page mapped by the page table miss freeing since we
treat the page table as shared and a shared page table will not be
unmapped.
Fix it by introducing independent PMD page table shared count. As

commit 081056dc00 upstream.
Currently, __split_vma() triggers hugetlb page table unsharing through
vm_ops->may_split(). This happens before the VMA lock and rmap locks are
taken - which is too early, it allows racing VMA-locked page faults in our
process and racing rmap walks from other processes to cause page tables to
be shared again before we actually perform the split.
Fix it by explicitly calling into the hugetlb unshare logic from
__split_vma() in the same place where THP splitting also happens. At that
point, both the VMA and the rmap(s) are write-locked.
An annoying detail is that we can now call into the helper
hugetlb_unshare_pmds() from two different locking contexts:
1. from hugetlb_split(), holding:
- mmap lock (exclusively)
- VMA lock
- file rmap lock (exclusively)
2. hugetlb_unshare_all_pmds(), which I think is designed to be able to
call us with only the mmap lock held (in shared mode), but currently
only runs while holding mmap lock (exclusively) and VMA lock
Backporting note:
This commit fixes a racy protection that was introduced in commit
b30c14cd61 ("hugetlb: unshare some PMDs when splitting VMAs"); that
commit claimed to fix an issue introduced in 5.13, but it should actually

commit f83f362d40 upstream.
In dirty_ratio_handler(), vm_dirty_bytes must be set to zero before
calling writeback_set_ratelimit(), as global_dirty_limits() always
prioritizes the value of vm_dirty_bytes.
It's domain_dirty_limits() that's relevant here, not node_dirty_ok:
dirty_ratio_handler
writeback_set_ratelimit
global_dirty_limits(&dirty_thresh) <- ratelimit_pages based on dirty_thresh
domain_dirty_limits
if (bytes) <- bytes = vm_dirty_bytes <--------+
thresh = f1(bytes) <- prioritizes vm_dirty_bytes |
else |
thresh = f2(ratio) |
ratelimit_pages = f3(dirty_thresh) |
vm_dirty_bytes = 0 <- it's late! ---------------------+
This causes ratelimit_pages to still use the value calculated based on
vm_dirty_bytes, which is wrong now.
The impact visible to userspace is difficult to capture directly because
there is no procfs/sysfs interface exported to user space. However, it
will have a real impact on the balance of dirty pages.
For example:
1. On default, we have vm_dirty_ratio=40, vm_dirty_bytes=0
2. echo 8192 > dirty_bytes, then vm_dirty_bytes=8192,
vm_dirty_ratio=0, and ratelimit_pages is calculated based on
vm_dirty_bytes now.
3. echo 20 > dirty_ratio, then since vm_dirty_bytes is not reset to
zero when writeback_set_ratelimit() -> global_dirty_limits() ->
domain_dirty_limits() is called, reallimit_pages is still calculated
based on vm_dirty_bytes instead of vm_dirty_ratio. This does not
conform to the actual intent of the user.

commit 06717a7b6c upstream.
I am seeing soft lockup on certain machine types when a cgroup OOMs. This
is happening because killing the process in certain machine might be very
slow, which causes the soft lockup and RCU stalls. This happens usually
when the cgroup has MANY processes and memory.oom.group is set.
Example I am seeing in real production:
[462012.244552] Memory cgroup out of memory: Killed process 3370438 (crosvm) ....
....
[462037.318059] Memory cgroup out of memory: Killed process 4171372 (adb) ....
[462037.348314] watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#64 stuck for 26s! [stat_manager-ag:1618982]
....
Quick look at why this is so slow, it seems to be related to serial flush
for certain machine types. For all the crashes I saw, the target CPU was
at console_flush_all().
In the case above, there are thousands of processes in the cgroup, and it
is soft locking up before it reaches the 1024 limit in the code (which
would call the cond_resched()). So, cond_resched() in 1024 blocks is not
sufficient.
Remove the counter-based conditional rescheduling logic and call
cond_resched() unconditionally after each task iteration, after fn() is
called. This avoids the lockup independently of how slow fn() is.

commit a995199384 upstream.
In the case of apply_to_existing_page_range(), apply_to_pte_range() is
reached with 'create' set to false. When !create, the loop over the PTE
page table is broken.
apply_to_pte_range() will only move to the next PTE entry if 'create' is
true or if the current entry is not pte_none().
This means that the user of apply_to_existing_page_range() will not have
'fn' called for any entries after the first pte_none() in the PTE page
table.
Fix the loop logic in apply_to_pte_range().
There are no known runtime issues from this, but the fix is trivial enough
for stable@ even without a known buggy user.

commit aaf99ac2ce upstream.
When an uncorrected memory error is consumed there is a race between the
CMCI from the memory controller reporting an uncorrected error with a UCNA
signature, and the core reporting and SRAR signature machine check when
the data is about to be consumed.
- Background: why *UN*corrected errors tied to *C*MCI in Intel platform [1]
Prior to Icelake memory controllers reported patrol scrub events that
detected a previously unseen uncorrected error in memory by signaling a
broadcast machine check with an SRAO (Software Recoverable Action
Optional) signature in the machine check bank. This was overkill because
it's not an urgent problem that no core is on the verge of consuming that
bad data. It's also found that multi SRAO UCE may cause nested MCE
interrupts and finally become an IERR.
Hence, Intel downgrades the machine check bank signature of patrol scrub
from SRAO to UCNA (Uncorrected, No Action required), and signal changed to
#CMCI. Just to add to the confusion, Linux does take an action (in
uc_decode_notifier()) to try to offline the page despite the UC*NA*
signature name.
- Background: why #CMCI and #MCE race when poison is consuming in Intel platform [1]
Having decided that CMCI/UCNA is the best action for patrol scrub errors,
the memory controller uses it for reads too. But the memory controller is
executing asynchronously from the core, and can't tell the difference
between a "real" read and a speculative read. So it will do CMCI/UCNA if
an error is found in any read.
Thus:
1) Core is clever and thinks address A is needed soon, issues a speculative read.
2) Core finds it is going to use address A soon after sending the read request
3) The CMCI from the memory controller is in a race with MCE from the core
that will soon try to retire the load from address A.
Quite often (because speculation has got better) the CMCI from the memory
controller is delivered before the core is committed to the instruction
reading address A, so the interrupt is taken, and Linux offlines the page
(marking it as poison).
- Why user process is killed for instr case
Commit 046545a661 ("mm/hwpoison: fix error page recovered but reported
"not recovered"") tries to fix noise message "Memory error not recovered"
and skips duplicate SIGBUSs due to the race. But it also introduced a bug
that kill_accessing_process() return -EHWPOISON for instr case, as result,
kill_me_maybe() send a SIGBUS to user process.
If the CMCI wins that race, the page is marked poisoned when
uc_decode_notifier() calls memory_failure(). For dirty pages,
memory_failure() invokes try_to_unmap() with the TTU_HWPOISON flag,
converting the PTE to a hwpoison entry. As a result,
kill_accessing_process():
- call walk_page_range() and return 1 regardless of whether
try_to_unmap() succeeds or fails,
- call kill_proc() to make sure a SIGBUS is sent
- return -EHWPOISON to indicate that SIGBUS is already sent to the
process and kill_me_maybe() doesn't have to send it again.
However, for clean pages, the TTU_HWPOISON flag is cleared, leaving the
PTE unchanged and not converted to a hwpoison entry. Conversely, for
clean pages where PTE entries are not marked as hwpoison,
kill_accessing_process() returns -EFAULT, causing kill_me_maybe() to send
a SIGBUS.
Console log looks like this:
Memory failure: 0x827ca68: corrupted page was clean: dropped without side effects
Memory failure: 0x827ca68: recovery action for clean LRU page: Recovered
Memory failure: 0x827ca68: already hardware poisoned
mce: Memory error not recovered
To fix it, return 0 for "corrupted page was clean", preventing an
unnecessary SIGBUS to user process.

commit c0ebbb3841 upstream.
The PGDAT_RECLAIM_LOCKED bit is used to provide mutual exclusion of node
reclaim for struct pglist_data using a single bit.
It is "locked" with a test_and_set_bit (similarly to a try lock) which
provides full ordering with respect to loads and stores done within
__node_reclaim().
It is "unlocked" with clear_bit(), which does not provide any ordering
with respect to loads and stores done before clearing the bit.
The lack of clear_bit() memory ordering with respect to stores within
__node_reclaim() can cause a subsequent CPU to fail to observe stores from
a prior node reclaim. This is not an issue in practice on TSO (e.g.
x86), but it is an issue on weakly-ordered architectures (e.g. arm64).
Fix this by using clear_bit_unlock rather than clear_bit to clear
PGDAT_RECLAIM_LOCKED with a release memory ordering semantic.
This provides stronger memory ordering (release rather than relaxed).

[ Upstream commit 05a940656e ]
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,
* to allow max possible filling before reallocation.
*/
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().

[ Upstream commit 3c81b3bb0a ]
Out-of-bounds accesses that aren't caught by a guard page will result in
corruption of canary memory. In pathological cases, where an object has
certain alignment requirements, an out-of-bounds access might never be
caught by the guard page. Such corruptions, however, are only detected on
kfree() normally. If the bug causes the kernel to panic before kfree(),
KFENCE has no opportunity to report the issue. Such corruptions may also
indicate failing memory or other faults.
To provide some more information in such cases, add the option to check
canary bytes on panic. This might help narrow the search for the panic
cause; but, due to only having the allocation stack trace, such reports
are difficult to use to diagnose an issue alone. In most cases, such
reports are inactionable, and is therefore an opt-in feature (disabled by
default).

the KFENCE KUnit test still passes.
Nevertheless, on power-constrained systems this may be preferable, so
let's give the user the option should they accept the above trade-off.

This is because thousands of processes are in the OOM cgroup, it takes a
long time to traverse all of them. As a result, this lead to soft lockup
in the OOM process.
To fix this issue, call 'cond_resched' in the 'mem_cgroup_scan_tasks'
function per 1000 iterations. For global OOM, call
'touch_softlockup_watchdog' per 1000 iterations to avoid this issue.

[ Upstream commit 72ba14deb4 ]
The current implementation of the mark_victim tracepoint provides only the
process ID (pid) of the victim process. This limitation poses challenges
for userspace tools requiring real-time OOM analysis and intervention.
Although this information is available from the kernel logs, it’s not
the appropriate format to provide OOM notifications. In Android, BPF
programs are used with the mark_victim trace events to notify userspace of
an OOM kill. For consistency, update the trace event to include the same
information about the OOMed victim as the kernel logs.
- UID
In Android each installed application has a unique UID. Including
the `uid` assists in correlating OOM events with specific apps.
- Process Name (comm)
Enables identification of the affected process.
- OOM Score
Will allow userspace to get additional insight of the relative kill
priority of the OOM victim. In Android, the oom_score_adj is used to
categorize app state (foreground, background, etc.), which aids in
analyzing user-perceptible impacts of OOM events [1].
- Total VM, RSS Stats, and pgtables
Amount of memory used by the victim that will, potentially, be freed up
by killing it.

At this point, the pgdat contains the following two zones:

In allow_direct_reclaim(), while processing ZONE_DMA32, the sum of
inactive/active file-backed pages calculated in zone_reclaimable_pages()
based on the result of zone_page_state_snapshot() is zero.
Additionally, since this system lacks swap, the calculation of inactive/
active anonymous pages is skipped.
crash> p nr_swap_pages
nr_swap_pages = $1937 = {
counter = 0
}
As a result, ZONE_DMA32 is deemed unreclaimable and skipped, moving on to
the processing of the next zone, ZONE_NORMAL, despite ZONE_DMA32 having
free pages significantly exceeding the high watermark.
The problem is that the pgdat->kswapd_failures hasn't been incremented.
crash> px ((struct pglist_data *) 0xffff00817fffe540)->kswapd_failures
$1935 = 0x0
This is because the node deemed balanced. The node balancing logic in
balance_pgdat() evaluates all zones collectively. If one or more zones
(e.g., ZONE_DMA32) have enough free pages to meet their watermarks, the
entire node is deemed balanced. This causes balance_pgdat() to exit early
before incrementing the kswapd_failures, as it considers the overall
memory state acceptable, even though some zones (like ZONE_NORMAL) remain
under significant pressure.
The patch ensures that zone_reclaimable_pages() includes free pages
(NR_FREE_PAGES) in its calculation when no other reclaimable pages are
available (e.g., file-backed or anonymous pages). This change prevents
zones like ZONE_DMA32, which have sufficient free pages, from being
mistakenly deemed unreclaimable. By doing so, the patch ensures proper
node balancing, avoids masking pressure on other zones like ZONE_NORMAL,
and prevents infinite loops in throttle_direct_reclaim() caused by
allow_direct_reclaim(pgdat) repeatedly returning false.
The kernel hangs due to a task stuck in throttle_direct_reclaim(), caused
by a node being incorrectly deemed balanced despite pressure in certain
zones, such as ZONE_NORMAL. This issue arises from
zone_reclaimable_pages() returning 0 for zones without reclaimable file-
backed or anonymous pages, causing zones like ZONE_DMA32 with sufficient
free pages to be skipped.
The lack of swap or reclaimable pages results in ZONE_DMA32 being ignored
during reclaim, masking pressure in other zones. Consequently,
pgdat->kswapd_failures remains 0 in balance_pgdat(), preventing fallback
mechanisms in allow_direct_reclaim() from being triggered, leading to an
infinite loop in throttle_direct_reclaim().
This patch modifies zone_reclaimable_pages() to account for free pages
(NR_FREE_PAGES) when no other reclaimable pages exist. This ensures zones
with sufficient free pages are not skipped, enabling proper balancing and
reclaim behavior.

Patch series "mm/damon/vaddr: Fix issue in
damon_va_evenly_split_region()". v2.
According to the logic of damon_va_evenly_split_region(), currently
following split case would not meet the expectation:
Suppose DAMON_MIN_REGION=0x1000,
Case: Split [0x0, 0x3000) into 2 pieces, then the result would be
acutually 3 regions:
[0x0, 0x1000), [0x1000, 0x2000), [0x2000, 0x3000)
but NOT the expected 2 regions:
[0x0, 0x1000), [0x1000, 0x3000) !!!
The root cause is that when calculating size of each split piece in
damon_va_evenly_split_region():
`sz_piece = ALIGN_DOWN(sz_orig / nr_pieces, DAMON_MIN_REGION);`
both the dividing and the ALIGN_DOWN may cause loss of precision, then
each time split one piece of size 'sz_piece' from origin 'start' to 'end'
would cause more pieces are split out than expected!!!
To fix it, count for each piece split and make sure no more than
'nr_pieces'. In addition, add above case into damon_test_split_evenly().
And add 'nr_piece == 1' check in damon_va_evenly_split_region() for better
code readability and add a corresponding kunit testcase.

[ Upstream commit 5de195060b ]
The mmap_region() function is somewhat terrifying, with spaghetti-like
control flow and numerous means by which issues can arise and incomplete
state, memory leaks and other unpleasantness can occur.
A large amount of the complexity arises from trying to handle errors late
in the process of mapping a VMA, which forms the basis of recently
observed issues with resource leaks and observable inconsistent state.
Taking advantage of previous patches in this series we move a number of
checks earlier in the code, simplifying things by moving the core of the
logic into a static internal function __mmap_region().
Doing this allows us to perform a number of checks up front before we do
any real work, and allows us to unwind the writable unmap check
unconditionally as required and to perform a CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_MAPLE_TREE
validation unconditionally also.
We move a number of things here:
1. We preallocate memory for the iterator before we call the file-backed
memory hook, allowing us to exit early and avoid having to perform
complicated and error-prone close/free logic. We carefully free
iterator state on both success and error paths.
2. The enclosing mmap_region() function handles the mapping_map_writable()
logic early. Previously the logic had the mapping_map_writable() at the
point of mapping a newly allocated file-backed VMA, and a matching
mapping_unmap_writable() on success and error paths.
We now do this unconditionally if this is a file-backed, shared writable
mapping. If a driver changes the flags to eliminate VM_MAYWRITE, however
doing so does not invalidate the seal check we just performed, and we in
any case always decrement the counter in the wrapper.
We perform a debug assert to ensure a driver does not attempt to do the
opposite.
3. We also move arch_validate_flags() up into the mmap_region()
function. This is only relevant on arm64 and sparc64, and the check is
only meaningful for SPARC with ADI enabled. We explicitly add a warning
for this arch if a driver invalidates this check, though the code ought
eventually to be fixed to eliminate the need for this.
With all of these measures in place, we no longer need to explicitly close
the VMA on error paths, as we place all checks which might fail prior to a
call to any driver mmap hook.
This eliminates an entire class of errors, makes the code easier to reason
about and more robust.
