kernel/resource: fix locking in request_free_mem_region
request_free_mem_region() is used to find an empty range of physical
addresses for hotplugging ZONE_DEVICE memory. It does this by iterating
over the range of possible addresses using region_intersects() to see if
the range is free before calling request_mem_region() to allocate the
region.
However the resource_lock is dropped between these two calls meaning by
the time request_mem_region() is called in request_free_mem_region()
another thread may have already reserved the requested region. This
results in unexpected failures and a message in the kernel log from
hitting this condition:
/*
* mm/hmm.c reserves physical addresses which then
* become unavailable to other users. Conflicts are
* not expected. Warn to aid debugging if encountered.
*/
if (conflict->desc == IORES_DESC_DEVICE_PRIVATE_MEMORY) {
pr_warn("Unaddressable device %s %pR conflicts with %pR",
conflict->name, conflict, res);
These unexpected failures can be corrected by holding resource_lock across
the two calls. This also requires memory allocation to be performed prior
to taking the lock.

kernel/resource: make walk_system_ram_res() find all busy IORESOURCE_SYSTEM_RAM resources
Patch series "kernel/resource: make walk_system_ram_res() and walk_mem_res() search the whole tree", v2.
Playing with kdump+virtio-mem I noticed that kexec_file_load() does not
consider System RAM added via dax/kmem and virtio-mem when preparing the
elf header for kdump. Looking into the details, the logic used in
walk_system_ram_res() and walk_mem_res() seems to be outdated.
walk_system_ram_range() already does the right thing, let's change
walk_system_ram_res() and walk_mem_res(), and clean up.
Loading a kdump kernel via "kexec -p -s" ... will result in the kdump
kernel to also dump dax/kmem and virtio-mem added System RAM now.
Note: kexec-tools on x86-64 also have to be updated to consider this
memory in the kexec_load() case when processing /proc/iomem.
This patch (of 3):
It used to be true that we can have system RAM (IORESOURCE_SYSTEM_RAM |
IORESOURCE_BUSY) only on the first level in the resource tree. However,
this is no longer holds for driver-managed system RAM (i.e., added via
dax/kmem and virtio-mem), which gets added on lower levels, for example,
inside device containers.
We have two users of walk_system_ram_res(), which currently only
consideres the first level:
a) kernel/kexec_file.c:kexec_walk_resources() -- We properly skip
IORESOURCE_SYSRAM_DRIVER_MANAGED resources via
locate_mem_hole_callback(), so even after this change, we won't be
placing kexec images onto dax/kmem and virtio-mem added memory. No
change.
b) arch/x86/kernel/crash.c:fill_up_crash_elf_data() -- we're currently
not adding relevant ranges to the crash elf header, resulting in them
not getting dumped via kdump.
This change fixes loading a crashkernel via kexec_file_load() and
including dax/kmem and virtio-mem added System RAM in the crashdump on
x86-64. Note that e.g,, arm64 relies on memblock data and, therefore,
always considers all added System RAM already.
Let's find all IORESOURCE_SYSTEM_RAM | IORESOURCE_BUSY resources, making
the function behave like walk_system_ram_range().

When I git blame delayacct, I found there're some similar issues we have
fixed in delayacct_blkio_end().
'Commit c96f5471ce7d ("delayacct: Account blkio completion on the correct task")'
fixed the issue that it should account blkio completion on the target

'Commit b512719f771a ("delayacct: fix crash in delayacct_blkio_end() after delayacct init failure")'
fixed the issue that it should check target task's delays instead of
current task'. It seems that delayacct_blkio_{begin, end} are error prone.
So I introduce a new paratmeter - the target task 'p' into these helpers,
after that change, the callsite will specifilly set the right task, which
should make it less error prone.

isofs: fix fall-through warnings for Clang
In preparation to enable -Wimplicit-fallthrough for Clang, fix a warning
by explicitly adding a break statement instead of just letting the code

339ddb53d373 (fs/epoll: remove unnecessary wakeups of nested epoll)
changed the userspace visible behavior of exclusive waiters blocked on a
common epoll descriptor upon a single event becoming ready. Previously,
all tasks doing epoll_wait would awake, and now only one is awoken,
potentially causing missed wakeups on applications that rely on this
behavior, such as Apache Qpid.
While the aforementioned commit aims at having only a wakeup single path
in ep_poll_callback (with the exceptions of epoll_ctl cases), we need to
restore the wakeup in what was the old ep_scan_ready_list() such that the
next thread can be awoken, in a cascading style, after the waker's
corresponding ep_send_events().

Similarly to bitmap functions, find_next_*_bit() users will benefit if
we'll handle a case of bitmaps that fit into a single word inline. In the
very best case, the compiler may replace a function call with a few
instructions.
This is the quite typical find_next_bit() user:
unsigned int cpumask_next(int n, const struct cpumask *srcp)
{
/* -1 is a legal arg here. */
if (n != -1)
cpumask_check(n);
return find_next_bit(cpumask_bits(srcp), nr_cpumask_bits, n + 1);
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL(cpumask_next);
lib/find_bit.c declares five single-line wrappers for _find_next_bit().
We may turn those wrappers to inline functions. It eliminates unneeded
function calls and opens room for compile-time optimizations.

Patch series "lib/find_bit: fast path for small bitmaps", v6.
Bitmap operations are much simpler and faster in case of small bitmaps
which fit into a single word. In linux/bitmap.c we have a machinery that
allows compiler to replace actual function call with a few instructions if
bitmaps passed into the function are small and their size is known at
compile time.
find_*_bit() API lacks this functionality; but users will benefit from it
a lot. One important example is cpumask subsystem when NR_CPUS <=
BITS_PER_LONG.

The bitmap.h header is used in a lot of code around the kernel. Besides

The problem here is many unneeded loops that make header hell

to the header? Currently it's impossible. And bitmap.h here is only the

kerne.h is a dump of everything that even has nothing in common at all.
We may still have it, but in my new code I prefer to include only the

procfs: allow reading fdinfo with PTRACE_MODE_READ
Android captures per-process system memory state when certain low memory
events (e.g a foreground app kill) occur, to identify potential memory
hoggers. In order to measure how much memory a process actually consumes,
it is necessary to include the DMA buffer sizes for that process in the
memory accounting. Since the handle to DMA buffers are raw FDs, it is
important to be able to identify which processes have FD references to a
DMA buffer.
Currently, DMA buffer FDs can be accounted using /proc/<pid>/fd/* and
/proc/<pid>/fdinfo -- both are only readable by the process owner, as
follows:
1. Do a readlink on each FD.
2. If the target path begins with "/dmabuf", then the FD is a dmabuf FD.
3. stat the file to get the dmabuf inode number.
4. Read/ proc/<pid>/fdinfo/<fd>, to get the DMA buffer size.
Accessing other processes' fdinfo requires root privileges. This limits
the use of the interface to debugging environments and is not suitable for
production builds. Granting root privileges even to a system process
increases the attack surface and is highly undesirable.
Since fdinfo doesn't permit reading process memory and manipulating
process state, allow accessing fdinfo under PTRACE_MODE_READ_FSCRED.

syzbot's current top report is "no output from test machine" where the
userspace process failed to spawn a new test process for 300 seconds for
some reason. One of reasons which can result in this report is that an
already spawned test process was unable to terminate (e.g. trapped at an
unkillable retry loop due to some bug) after SIGKILL was sent to that
process. Therefore, reporting when a thread is failing to terminate
despite a fatal signal is pending would give us more useful information.
In the context of syzbot's testing where there are only 2 CPUs in the

memory) and threads get SIGKILL after 5 seconds from fork(), being unable
to reach do_exit() within 10 seconds is likely a sign of something went
wrong. Therefore, I would like to try this patch in linux-next.git for
feasibility testing whether this patch helps finding more bugs and
reproducers for such bugs, by bringing "unable to terminate threads"
reports out of "no output from test machine" reports.
Potential bad effect of this patch will be that kernel code becomes
killable without addressing the root cause of being unable to terminate,
for use of killable wait will bypass both TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE stall test
and SIGKILL after 5 seconds behavior, which will result in failing to
detect in real systems where SIGKILL won't be sent after 5 seconds when
something went wrong.
This version shares existing sysctl settings (e.g. check interval,
timeout, whether to panic) used for detecting TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE
threads. We will likely want to use different sysctl settings for
monitoring killed threads. But let's start as linux-next.git patch
without introducing new sysctl settings. We can add sysctl settings
before sending to linux.git.

Among syzbot's unresolved hung task reports, 18 out of 65 reports contain
__getblk_gfp() line in the backtrace. Since there is a comment block that
says that __getblk_gfp() will lock up the machine if try_to_free_buffers()

syzbot is hitting that case. This change will be removed after the bug is

The reason for the panic is that stable_page_flags() which parses the page
flags uses uninitialized struct pages reserved by the ZONE_DEVICE driver.
Earlier approach to fix this was discussed here:
https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=152964770000672&w=2
This is another approach. To avoid using the uninitialized struct page,
immediately return with KPF_RESERVED at the beginning of
stable_page_flags() if the page is reserved by ZONE_DEVICE driver.
Dan said:

kfence: await for allocation using wait_event
Patch series "kfence: optimize timer scheduling", v2.
We have observed that mostly-idle systems with KFENCE enabled wake up
otherwise idle CPUs, preventing such to enter a lower power state.
Debugging revealed that KFENCE spends too much active time in
toggle_allocation_gate().
While the first version of KFENCE was using all the right bits to be
scheduling optimal, and thus power efficient, by simply using wait_event()
+ wake_up(), that code was unfortunately removed.
As KFENCE was exposed to various different configs and tests, the
scheduling optimal code slowly disappeared. First because of hung task
warnings, and finally because of deadlocks when an allocation is made by
timer code with debug objects enabled. Clearly, the "fixes" were not too
friendly for devices that want to be power efficient.
Therefore, let's try a little harder to fix the hung task and deadlock
problems that we have with wait_event() + wake_up(), while remaining as
scheduling friendly and power efficient as possible.
Crucially, we need to defer the wake_up() to an irq_work, avoiding any
potential for deadlock.
The result with this series is that on the devices where we observed a
power regression, power usage returns back to baseline levels.
This patch (of 3):
On mostly-idle systems, we have observed that toggle_allocation_gate() is
a cause of frequent wake-ups, preventing an otherwise idle CPU to go into
a lower power state.
A late change in KFENCE's development, due to a potential deadlock [1],
required changing the scheduling-friendly wait_event_timeout() and
wake_up() to an open-coded wait-loop using schedule_timeout(). [1]
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/000000000000c0645805b7f982e4@google.com
To avoid unnecessary wake-ups, switch to using wait_event_timeout().
Unfortunately, we still cannot use a version with direct wake_up() in
__kfence_alloc() due to the same potential for deadlock as in [1].
Instead, add a level of indirection via an irq_work that is scheduled if
we determine that the kfence_timer requires a wake_up().
