SysV can be abused to allocate locked kernel memory. For most systems, a
small limit doesn't make sense, see the discussion with regards to SHMMAX.
Therefore: increase MSGMNI to the maximum supported.
And: If we ignore the risk of locking too much memory, then an automatic
scaling of MSGMNI doesn't make sense. Therefore the logic can be removed.
The code preserves auto_msgmni to avoid breaking any user space applications
that expect that the value exists.
Notes:
1) If an administrator must limit the memory allocations, then he can set
MSGMNI as necessary.
Or he can disable sysv entirely (as e.g. done by Android).
2) MSGMAX and MSGMNB are intentionally not increased, as these values are used
to control latency vs. throughput:
If MSGMNB is large, then msgsnd() just returns and more messages can be queued
before a task switch to a task that calls msgrcv() is forced.

Therefore: Increase the sysv sem limits so that all known applications
will work with these defaults.
b)
With regards to the maximum supported:
Some of the specified hard limits are not correct anymore, therefore the
patch updates the documentation.
- SEMMNI must stay below IPCMNI, which is 32768.
As for SHMMAX: Stay a bit below this limit.
- SEMMSL was limited to 8k, to ensure that the kmalloc for the kernel array
was limited to 16 kB (order=2)
This doesn't apply anymore:
- the allocation size isn't sizeof(short)*nsems anymore.
- ipc_alloc falls back to vmalloc
- SEMOPM should stay below 1000, to limit the kmalloc in semtimedop() to an
order=1 allocation.
Therefore: Leave it at 500 (order=0 allocation).

This patchset adds execveat(2) for x86, and is derived from Meredydd
Luff's patch from Sept 2012 (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/9/11/528).
The primary aim of adding an execveat syscall is to allow an
implementation of fexecve(3) that does not rely on the /proc filesystem,
at least for executables (rather than scripts). The current glibc version
of fexecve(3) is implemented via /proc, which causes problems in sandboxed
or otherwise restricted environments.
Given the desire for a /proc-free fexecve() implementation, HPA suggested
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2006/7/11/556) that an execveat(2) syscall would be
an appropriate generalization.
Also, having a new syscall means that it can take a flags argument without
back-compatibility concerns. The current implementation just defines the
AT_EMPTY_PATH and AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW flags, but other flags could be
added in future -- for example, flags for new namespaces (as suggested at
https://lkml.org/lkml/2006/7/11/474).
Related history:
- https://lkml.org/lkml/2006/12/27/123 is an example of someone
realizing that fexecve() is likely to fail in a chroot environment.
- http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=514043 covered
documenting the /proc requirement of fexecve(3) in its manpage, to
"prevent other people from wasting their time".
- https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=241609 described a
problem where a process that did setuid() could not fexecve()
because it no longer had access to /proc/self/fd; this has since
been fixed.
This patch (of 4):
Add a new execveat(2) system call. execveat() is to execve() as openat()
is to open(): it takes a file descriptor that refers to a directory, and
resolves the filename relative to that.
In addition, if the filename is empty and AT_EMPTY_PATH is specified,
execveat() executes the file to which the file descriptor refers. This
replicates the functionality of fexecve(), which is a system call in other
UNIXen, but in Linux glibc it depends on opening "/proc/self/fd/<fd>" (and
so relies on /proc being mounted).
The filename fed to the executed program as argv[0] (or the name of the
script fed to a script interpreter) will be of the form "/dev/fd/<fd>"
(for an empty filename) or "/dev/fd/<fd>/<filename>", effectively
reflecting how the executable was found. This does however mean that
execution of a script in a /proc-less environment won't work; also, script
execution via an O_CLOEXEC file descriptor fails (as the file will not be
accessible after exec).

Suppose task @t that belongs to a memory cgroup @memcg is going to
allocate an object from a kmem cache @c. The copy of @c corresponding to
@memcg, @mc, is empty. Then if kmem_cache_alloc races with the memory
cgroup destruction we can access the memory cgroup's copy of the cache
after it was destroyed:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
[ current=@t
@mc->memcg_params->nr_pages=0 ]
kmem_cache_alloc(@c):
call memcg_kmem_get_cache(@c);
proceed to allocation from @mc:
alloc a page for @mc:
...
move @t from @memcg
destroy @memcg:
mem_cgroup_css_offline(@memcg):
memcg_unregister_all_caches(@memcg):
kmem_cache_destroy(@mc)
add page to @mc
We could fix this issue by taking a reference to a per-memcg cache, but
that would require adding a per-cpu reference counter to per-memcg caches,
which would look cumbersome.
Instead, let's take a reference to a memory cgroup, which already has a
per-cpu reference counter, in the beginning of kmem_cache_alloc to be
dropped in the end, and move per memcg caches destruction from css offline
to css free. As a side effect, per-memcg caches will be destroyed not one
by one, but all at once when the last page accounted to the memory cgroup
is freed. This doesn't sound as a high price for code readability though.
Note, this patch does add some overhead to the kmem_cache_alloc hot path,
but it is pretty negligible - it's just a function call plus a per cpu
counter decrement, which is comparable to what we already have in
memcg_kmem_get_cache. Besides, it's only relevant if there are memory
cgroups with kmem accounting enabled. I don't think we can find a way to
handle this race w/o it, because alloc_page called from kmem_cache_alloc
may sleep so we can't flush all pending kmallocs w/o reference counting.

oom_kill.c assumes that PF_EXITING task should exit and free the memory
soon. This is wrong in many ways and one important case is the coredump.
A task can sleep in exit_mm() "forever" while the coredumping sub-thread
can need more memory.
Change the PF_EXITING checks to take SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP into account,
we add the new trivial helper for that.
Note: this is only the first step, this patch doesn't try to solve other
problems. The SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP check is obviously racy, a task can
participate in coredump after it was already observed in PF_EXITING state,
so TIF_MEMDIE (which also blocks oom-killer) still can be wrongly set.
fatal_signal_pending() can be true because of SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP so
out_of_memory() and mem_cgroup_out_of_memory() shouldn't blindly trust it.
And even the name/usage of the new helper is confusing, an exiting thread
can only free its ->mm if it is the only/last task in thread group.

The slab shrinkers are currently invoked from the zonelist walkers in
kswapd, direct reclaim, and zone reclaim, all of which roughly gauge the
eligible LRU pages and assemble a nodemask to pass to NUMA-aware
shrinkers, which then again have to walk over the nodemask. This is
redundant code, extra runtime work, and fairly inaccurate when it comes to
the estimation of actually scannable LRU pages. The code duplication will
only get worse when making the shrinkers cgroup-aware and requiring them
to have out-of-band cgroup hierarchy walks as well.
Instead, invoke the shrinkers from shrink_zone(), which is where all
reclaimers end up, to avoid this duplication.
Take the count for eligible LRU pages out of get_scan_count(), which
considers many more factors than just the availability of swap space, like
zone_reclaimable_pages() currently does. Accumulate the number over all
visited lruvecs to get the per-zone value.
Some nodes have multiple zones due to memory addressing restrictions. To
avoid putting too much pressure on the shrinkers, only invoke them once
for each such node, using the class zone of the allocation as the pivot
zone.
For now, this integrates the slab shrinking better into the reclaim logic
and gets rid of duplicative invocations from kswapd, direct reclaim, and
zone reclaim. It also prepares for cgroup-awareness, allowing
memcg-capable shrinkers to be added at the lruvec level without much
duplication of both code and runtime work.
This changes kswapd behavior, which used to invoke the shrinkers for each
zone, but with scan ratios gathered from the entire node, resulting in
meaningless pressure quantities on multi-zone nodes.
Zone reclaim behavior also changes. It used to shrink slabs until the
same amount of pages were shrunk as were reclaimed from the LRUs. Now it
merely invokes the shrinkers once with the zone's scan ratio, which makes
the shrinkers go easier on caches that implement aging and would prefer
feeding back pressure from recently used slab objects to unused LRU pages.

This is the page owner tracking code which is introduced so far ago. It
is resident on Andrew's tree, though, nobody tried to upstream so it
remain as is. Our company uses this feature actively to debug memory leak
or to find a memory hogger so I decide to upstream this feature.
This functionality help us to know who allocates the page. When
allocating a page, we store some information about allocation in extra
memory. Later, if we need to know status of all pages, we can get and
analyze it from this stored information.
In previous version of this feature, extra memory is statically defined in
struct page, but, in this version, extra memory is allocated outside of
struct page. It enables us to turn on/off this feature at boottime
without considerable memory waste.
Although we already have tracepoint for tracing page allocation/free,
using it to analyze page owner is rather complex. We need to enlarge the
trace buffer for preventing overlapping until userspace program launched.
And, launched program continually dump out the trace buffer for later
analysis and it would change system behaviour with more possibility rather
than just keeping it in memory, so bad for debug.
Moreover, we can use page_owner feature further for various purposes. For
example, we can use it for fragmentation statistics implemented in this
patch. And, I also plan to implement some CMA failure debugging feature
using this interface.
I'd like to give the credit for all developers contributed this feature,
but, it's not easy because I don't know exact history. Sorry about that.

Now, we have prepared to avoid using debug-pagealloc in boottime. So
introduce new kernel-parameter to disable debug-pagealloc in boottime, and
makes related functions to be disabled in this case.
Only non-intuitive part is change of guard page functions. Because guard
page is effective only if debug-pagealloc is enabled, turning off
according to debug-pagealloc is reasonable thing to do.

Until now, debug-pagealloc needs extra flags in struct page, so we need to
recompile whole source code when we decide to use it. This is really
painful, because it takes some time to recompile and sometimes rebuild is
not possible due to third party module depending on struct page. So, we
can't use this good feature in many cases.
Now, we have the page extension feature that allows us to insert extra
flags to outside of struct page. This gets rid of third party module
issue mentioned above. And, this allows us to determine if we need extra
memory for this page extension in boottime. With these property, we can
avoid using debug-pagealloc in boottime with low computational overhead in
the kernel built with CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC. This will help our
development process greatly.
This patch is the preparation step to achive above goal. debug-pagealloc
originally uses extra field of struct page, but, after this patch, it will
use field of struct page_ext. Because memory for page_ext is allocated
later than initialization of page allocator in CONFIG_SPARSEMEM, we should
disable debug-pagealloc feature temporarily until initialization of
page_ext. This patch implements this.

When we debug something, we'd like to insert some information to every
page. For this purpose, we sometimes modify struct page itself. But,
this has drawbacks. First, it requires re-compile. This makes us
hesitate to use the powerful debug feature so development process is
slowed down. And, second, sometimes it is impossible to rebuild the
kernel due to third party module dependency. At third, system behaviour
would be largely different after re-compile, because it changes size of
struct page greatly and this structure is accessed by every part of
kernel. Keeping this as it is would be better to reproduce errornous
situation.
This feature is intended to overcome above mentioned problems. This
feature allocates memory for extended data per page in certain place
rather than the struct page itself. This memory can be accessed by the
accessor functions provided by this code. During the boot process, it
checks whether allocation of huge chunk of memory is needed or not. If
not, it avoids allocating memory at all. With this advantage, we can
include this feature into the kernel in default and can avoid rebuild and
solve related problems.
Until now, memcg uses this technique. But, now, memcg decides to embed
their variable to struct page itself and it's code to extend struct page
has been removed. I'd like to use this code to develop debug feature, so
this patch resurrect it.
To help these things to work well, this patch introduces two callbacks for
clients. One is the need callback which is mandatory if user wants to
avoid useless memory allocation at boot-time. The other is optional, init
callback, which is used to do proper initialization after memory is
allocated. Detailed explanation about purpose of these functions is in
code comment. Please refer it.
Others are completely same with previous extension code in memcg.

The i_mmap_mutex is a close cousin of the anon vma lock, both protecting
similar data, one for file backed pages and the other for anon memory. To
this end, this lock can also be a rwsem. In addition, there are some
important opportunities to share the lock when there are no tree
modifications.
This conversion is straightforward. For now, all users take the write
lock.

This series is a continuation of the conversion of the i_mmap_mutex to
rwsem, following what we have for the anon memory counterpart. With
Hugh's feedback from the first iteration.
Ultimately, the most obvious paths that require exclusive ownership of the
lock is when we modify the VMA interval tree, via
vma_interval_tree_insert() and vma_interval_tree_remove() families. Cases
such as unmapping, where the ptes content is changed but the tree remains
untouched should make it safe to share the i_mmap_rwsem.
As such, the code of course is straightforward, however the devil is very
much in the details. While its been tested on a number of workloads
without anything exploding, I would not be surprised if there are some
less documented/known assumptions about the lock that could suffer from
these changes. Or maybe I'm just missing something, but either way I
believe its at the point where it could use more eyes and hopefully some
time in linux-next.
Because the lock type conversion is the heart of this patchset,
its worth noting a few comparisons between mutex vs rwsem (xadd):
(i) Same size, no extra footprint.
(ii) Both have CONFIG_XXX_SPIN_ON_OWNER capabilities for
exclusive lock ownership.
(iii) Both can be slightly unfair wrt exclusive ownership, with
writer lock stealing properties, not necessarily respecting
FIFO order for granting the lock when contended.
(iv) Mutexes can be slightly faster than rwsems when
the lock is non-contended.
(v) Both suck at performance for debug (slowpaths), which
shouldn't matter anyway.
Sharing the lock is obviously beneficial, and sem writer ownership is
close enough to mutexes. The biggest winner of these changes is
migration.
As for concrete numbers, the following performance results are for a
4-socket 60-core IvyBridge-EX with 130Gb of RAM.
Both alltests and disk (xfs+ramdisk) workloads of aim7 suite do quite well
with this set, with a steady ~60% throughput (jpm) increase for alltests
and up to ~30% for disk for high amounts of concurrency. Lower counts of
workload users (< 100) does not show much difference at all, so at least
no regressions.

In addition, a 67.5% increase in successfully migrated NUMA pages, thus

The patch layout is simple but designed for bisection (in case reversion
is needed if the changes break upstream) and easier review:
o Patches 1-4 convert the i_mmap lock from mutex to rwsem.
o Patches 5-10 share the lock in specific paths, each patch
details the rationale behind why it should be safe.
This patchset has been tested with: postgres 9.4 (with brand new hugetlb
support), hugetlbfs test suite (all tests pass, in fact more tests pass
with these changes than with an upstream kernel), ltp, aim7 benchmarks,
memcached and iozone with the -B option for mmap'ing. *Untested* paths
are nommu, memory-failure, uprobes and xip.
This patch (of 8):
Various parts of the kernel acquire and release this mutex, so add
i_mmap_lock_write() and immap_unlock_write() helper functions that will
encapsulate this logic. The next patch will make use of these.

Some code paths will need to check to see if the internal state of the
vgic has been initialized (such as when creating new VCPUs), so
introduce such a macro that checks the nr_cpus field which is set when
the vgic has been initialized.
Also set nr_cpus = 0 in kvm_vgic_destroy, because the error path in
vgic_init() will call this function, and code should never errornously
assume the vgic to be properly initialized after an error.

The vgic_initialized() macro currently returns the state of the
vgic->ready flag, which indicates if the vgic is ready to be used when
running a VM, not specifically if its internal state has been
initialized.
Rename the macro accordingly in preparation for a more nuanced
initialization flow.

VGIC initialization currently happens in three phases:
(1) kvm_vgic_create() (triggered by userspace GIC creation)
(2) vgic_init_maps() (triggered by userspace GIC register read/write
requests, or from kvm_vgic_init() if not already run)
(3) kvm_vgic_init() (triggered by first VM run)
We were doing initialization of some state to correspond with the
state of a freshly-reset GIC in kvm_vgic_init(); this is too late,
since it will overwrite changes made by userspace using the
register access APIs before the VM is run. Move this initialization
earlier, into the vgic_init_maps() phase.
This fixes a bug where QEMU could successfully restore a saved
VM state snapshot into a VM that had already been run, but could
not restore it "from cold" using the -loadvm command line option
(the symptoms being that the restored VM would run but interrupts
were ignored).
Finally rename vgic_init_maps to vgic_init and renamed kvm_vgic_init to
kvm_vgic_map_resources.

modified it somewhat heavily, renaming various bits and moving code

Since the rework of the sparse interrupt code to actually free the
unused interrupt descriptors there exists a race between the /proc
interfaces to the irq subsystem and the code which frees the interrupt
descriptor.
CPU0 CPU1
show_interrupts()
desc = irq_to_desc(X);
free_desc(desc)
remove_from_radix_tree();
kfree(desc);
raw_spinlock_irq(&desc->lock);
/proc/interrupts is the only interface which can actively corrupt
kernel memory via the lock access. /proc/stat can only read from freed
memory. Extremly hard to trigger, but possible.
The interfaces in /proc/irq/N/ are not affected by this because the
removal of the proc file is serialized in procfs against concurrent
readers/writers. The removal happens before the descriptor is freed.
For architectures which have CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=n this is a non issue
as the descriptor is never freed. It's merely cleared out with the irq
descriptor lock held. So any concurrent proc access will either see
the old correct value or the cleared out ones.
Protect the lookup and access to the irq descriptor in
show_interrupts() with the sparse_irq_lock.
Provide kstat_irqs_usr() which is protecting the lookup and access
with sparse_irq_lock and switch /proc/stat to use it.
Document the existing kstat_irqs interfaces so it's clear that the
caller needs to take care about protection. The users of these
interfaces are either not affected due to SPARSE_IRQ=n or already
protected against removal.

When recording the state of a task for the sched_switch tracepoint a check of
task_preempt_count() is performed to see if PREEMPT_ACTIVE is set. This is
because, technically, a task being preempted is really in the TASK_RUNNING
state, and that is what should be recorded when tracing a sched_switch,
even if the task put itself into another state (it hasn't scheduled out
in that state yet).
But with the change to use per_cpu preempt counts, the
task_thread_info(p)->preempt_count is no longer used, and instead
task_preempt_count(p) is used.
The problem is that this does not use the current preempt count but a stale
one from a previous sched_switch. The task_preempt_count(p) uses
saved_preempt_count and not preempt_count(). But for tracing sched_switch,
if p is current, we really want preempt_count().
I hit this bug when I was tracing sleep and the call from do_nanosleep()
scheduled out in the "RUNNING" state.
sleep-4290 [000] 537272.259992: sched_switch: sleep:4290 [120] R ==> swapper/0:0 [120]
sleep-4290 [000] 537272.260015: kernel_stack: <stack trace>
=> __schedule (ffffffff8150864a)
=> schedule (ffffffff815089f8)
=> do_nanosleep (ffffffff8150b76c)
=> hrtimer_nanosleep (ffffffff8108d66b)
=> SyS_nanosleep (ffffffff8108d750)
=> return_to_handler (ffffffff8150e8e5)
=> tracesys_phase2 (ffffffff8150c844)
After a bit of hair pulling, I found that the state was really
TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE, but the saved_preempt_count had an old PREEMPT_ACTIVE
set and caused the sched_switch tracepoint to show it as RUNNING.

Merge tag 'docs-for-linus' of git://git.lwn.net/linux-2.6
Pull documentation update from Jonathan Corbet:
"Here's my set of accumulated documentation changes for 3.19.
It includes a couple of additions to the coding style document, some
fixes for minor build problems within the documentation tree, the
relocation of the kselftest docs, and various tweaks and additions.
A couple of changes reach outside of Documentation/; they only make
trivial comment changes and I did my best to get the required acks.
Complete with a shiny signed tag this time around"
* tag 'docs-for-linus' of git://git.lwn.net/linux-2.6:
kobject: grammar fix
Input: xpad - update docs to reflect current state
Documentation: Build mic/mpssd only for x86_64
cgroups: Documentation: fix wrong cgroupfs paths
Documentation/email-clients.txt: add info about Claws Mail
CodingStyle: add some more error handling guidelines
kselftest: Move the docs to the Documentation dir

Documentation: power: Fix typo in Documentation/power
Documentation: vm: Add 1GB large page support information
ipv4: add kernel parameter tcpmhash_entries
Documentation: Fix a typo in mailbox.txt
treewide: Fix typo in Documentation/DocBook/device-drivers
CodingStyle: Add a chapter on conditional compilation
In some cases acpi_device_wakeup() may be called to ensure wakeup
power to be off for a given device even though that device's wakeup
GPE has not been enabled so far. It calls acpi_disable_gpe() on a
GPE that's not enabled and this causes ACPICA to return the AE_LIMIT
status code from that call which then is reported as an error by the
ACPICA's debug facilities (if enabled). This may lead to a fair
amount of confusion, so introduce a new ACPI device wakeup flag
to store the wakeup GPE status and avoid disabling wakeup GPEs
that have not been enabled.

Since both ppc and ppc64 have LE variants which are now reported by uname, add
that flag (__AUDIT_ARCH_LE) to syscall_get_arch() and add AUDIT_ARCH_PPC64LE
variant.
Without this, perf trace and auditctl fail.
Mainline kernel reports ppc64le (per a058801) but there is no matching
AUDIT_ARCH_PPC64LE.
Since 32-bit PPC LE is not supported by audit, don't advertise it in
AUDIT_ARCH_PPC* variants.
