The first syscall simply lists the LSMs enabled, while the second and third get and set the current process' LSM attributes. Yes, these syscalls may provide similar functionality to what can be found under /proc or /sys, but they were designed to support multiple, simultaneaous (stacked) LSMs from the start as opposed to the current /proc based solutions which were created at a time when only one LSM was allowed to be active at a given time. We have spent considerable time discussing ways to extend the existing /proc interfaces to support multiple, simultaneaous LSMs and even our best ideas have been far too ugly to support as a kernel API; after +20 years in the kernel, I felt the LSM layer had established itself enough to justify a handful of syscalls. Support amongst the individual LSM developers has been nearly unanimous, with a single objection coming from Tetsuo (TOMOYO) as he is worried that the LSM_ID_XXX token concept will make it more difficult for out-of-tree LSMs to survive. Several members of the LSM community have demonstrated the ability for out-of-tree LSMs to continue to exist by picking high/unused LSM_ID values as well as pointing out that many kernel APIs rely on integer identifiers, e.g. syscalls (!), but unfortunately Tetsuo's objections remain. My personal opinion is that while I have no interest in penalizing out-of-tree LSMs, I'm not going to penalize in-tree development to support out-of-tree development, and I view this as a necessary step forward to support the push for expanded LSM stacking and reduce our reliance on /proc and /sys which has occassionally been problematic for some container users. Finally, we have included the linux-api folks on (all?) recent revisions of the patchset and addressed all of their concerns. - Add a new security_file_ioctl_compat() LSM hook to handle the 32-bit ioctls on 64-bit systems problem. This patch includes support for all of the existing LSMs which provide ioctl hooks, although it turns out only SELinux actually cares about the individual ioctls. It is worth noting that while Casey (Smack) and Tetsuo (TOMOYO) did not give explicit ACKs to this patch, they did both indicate they are okay with the changes. - Fix a potential memory leak in the CALIPSO code when IPv6 is disabled at boot. While it's good that we are fixing this, I doubt this is something users are seeing in the wild as you need to both disable IPv6 and then attempt to configure IPv6 labeled networking via NetLabel/CALIPSO; that just doesn't make much sense. Normally this would go through netdev, but Jakub asked me to take this patch and of all the trees I maintain, the LSM tree seemed like the best fit. - Update the LSM MAINTAINERS entry with additional information about our process docs, patchwork, bug reporting, etc. I also noticed that the Lockdown LSM is missing a dedicated MAINTAINERS entry so I've added that to the pull request. I've been working with one of the major Lockdown authors/contributors to see if they are willing to step up and assume a Lockdown maintainer role; hopefully that will happen soon, but in the meantime I'll continue to look after it. - Add a handful of mailmap entries for Serge Hallyn and myself. * tag 'lsm-pr-20240105' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pcmoore/lsm: (27 commits) lsm: new security_file_ioctl_compat() hook lsm: Add a __counted_by() annotation to lsm_ctx.ctx calipso: fix memory leak in netlbl_calipso_add_pass() selftests: remove the LSM_ID_IMA check in lsm/lsm_list_modules_test MAINTAINERS: add an entry for the lockdown LSM MAINTAINERS: update the LSM entry mailmap: add entries for Serge Hallyn's dead accounts mailmap: update/replace my old email addresses lsm: mark the lsm_id variables are marked as static lsm: convert security_setselfattr() to use memdup_user() lsm: align based on pointer length in lsm_fill_user_ctx() lsm: consolidate buffer size handling into lsm_fill_user_ctx() lsm: correct error codes in security_getselfattr() lsm: cleanup the size counters in security_getselfattr() lsm: don't yet account for IMA in LSM_CONFIG_COUNT calculation lsm: drop LSM_ID_IMA LSM: selftests for Linux Security Module syscalls SELinux: Add selfattr hooks AppArmor: Add selfattr hooks Smack: implement setselfattr and getselfattr hooks ... |

- Rename i_mapping->private_data to i_mapping->i_private_data
- Fix a false-positive lockdep warning in pipe_write() for watch
queues
- Improve __fget_files_rcu() code generation to improve performance

fs: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table array
This commit comes at the tail end of a greater effort to remove the empty elements at the end of the ctl_table arrays (sentinels) which will reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time memory bloat by ~64 bytes per sentinel (further information Link : https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZO5Yx5JFogGi%2FcBo@bombadil.infradead.org/) Remove sentinel elements ctl_table struct. Special attention was placed in making sure that an empty directory for fs/verity was created when CONFIG_FS_VERITY_BUILTIN_SIGNATURES is not defined. In this case we use the register sysctl call that expects a size. Signed-off-by: Joel Granados <j.granados@samsung.com> Reviewed-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Reviewed-by: "Darrick J.

sysctl: Fix out of bounds access for empty sysctl registers
When registering tables to the sysctl subsystem there is a check to see if header is a permanently empty directory (used for mounts). This check evaluates the first element of the ctl_table. This results in an out of bounds evaluation when registering empty directories. The function register_sysctl_mount_point now passes a ctl_table of size 1 instead of size 0. It now relies solely on the type to identify a permanently empty register. Make sure that the ctl_table has at least one element before testing for permanent emptiness.

fs/proc: show correct device and inode numbers in /proc/pid/maps
/proc/pid/maps shows device and inode numbers of vma->vm_file-s. Here is an issue. If a mapped file is on a stackable file system (e.g., overlayfs), vma->vm_file is a backing file whose f_inode is on the underlying filesystem. To show correct numbers, we need to get a user file and shows its numbers. The same trick is used to show file paths in /proc/pid/maps.

mm: thp: introduce multi-size THP sysfs interface
In preparation for adding support for anonymous multi-size THP, introduce new sysfs structure that will be used to control the new behaviours. A new directory is added under transparent_hugepage for each supported THP size, and contains an `enabled` file, which can be set to "inherit" (to inherit the global setting), "always", "madvise" or "never". For now, the kernel still only supports PMD-sized anonymous THP, so only 1 directory is populated. The first half of the change converts transhuge_vma_suitable() and hugepage_vma_check() so that they take a bitfield of orders for which the user wants to determine support, and the functions filter out all the orders that can't be supported, given the current sysfs configuration and the VMA dimensions. The resulting functions are renamed to thp_vma_suitable_orders() and thp_vma_allowable_orders() respectively. Convenience functions that take a single, unencoded order and return a boolean are also defined as thp_vma_suitable_order() and thp_vma_allowable_order(). The second half of the change implements the new sysfs interface. It has been done so that each supported THP size has a `struct thpsize`, which describes the relevant metadata and is itself a kobject. This is pretty minimal for now, but should make it easy to add new per-thpsize files to the interface if needed in future (e.g. per-size defrag). Rather than keep the `enabled` state directly in the struct thpsize, I've elected to directly encode it into huge_anon_orders_[always|madvise|inherit] bitfields since this reduces the amount of work required in thp_vma_allowable_orders() which is called for every page fault. See Documentation/admin-guide/mm/transhuge.rst, as modified by this commit, for details of how the new sysfs interface works.

fs/proc/task_mmu: report SOFT_DIRTY bits through the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl
The PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl returns information regarding page table entries. It is more efficient compared to reading pagemap files. CRIU can start to utilize this ioctl, but it needs info about soft-dirty bits to track memory changes. We are aware of a new method for tracking memory changes implemented in the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl. For CRIU, the primary advantage of this method is its usability by unprivileged users. However, it is not feasible to transparently replace the soft-dirty tracker with the new one. The main problem here is userfault descriptors that have to be preserved between pre-dump iterations. It means criu continues supporting the soft-dirty method to avoid breakage for current users. The new method will be implemented as a separate feature.

mm/pagemap: fix ioctl(PAGEMAP_SCAN) on vma check
Patch series "mm/pagemap: A few fixes to the recent PAGEMAP_SCAN".
This series should fix two known reports from syzbot on the new
PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl():
https://lore.kernel.org/all/000000000000b0e576060a30ee3b@google.com/
https://lore.kernel.org/all/000000000000773fa7060a31e2cc@google.com/
The 3rd patch is something I found when testing these patches.
This patch (of 3):
The new ioctl(PAGEMAP_SCAN) relies on vma wr-protect capability provided
by userfault, however in the vma test it didn't explicitly require the vma
to have wr-protect function enabled, even if PM_SCAN_WP_MATCHING flag is
set.
It means the pagemap code can now apply uffd-wp bit to a page in the vma
even if not registered to userfaultfd at all.
Then in whatever way as long as the pte got written and page fault
resolved, we'll apply the write bit even if uffd-wp bit is set. We'll see
a pte that has both UFFD_WP and WRITE bit set. Anything later that looks
up the pte for uffd-wp bit will trigger the warning:
WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 5071 at arch/x86/include/asm/pgtable.h:403 pte_uffd_wp arch/x86/include/asm/pgtable.h:403 [inline]
Fix it by doing proper check over the vma attributes when
PM_SCAN_WP_MATCHING is specified.

proc: Use lsmids instead of lsm names for attrs
Use the LSM ID number instead of the LSM name to identify which security module's attibute data should be shown in /proc/self/attr. The security_[gs]etprocattr() functions have been changed to expect the LSM ID. The change from a string comparison to an integer comparison in these functions will provide a minor performance improvement.

As usual, lots of singleton and doubleton patches all over the tree and
there's little I can say which isn't in the individual changelogs.
The lengthier patch series are
- "kdump: use generic functions to simplify crashkernel reservation in
arch", from Baoquan He. This is mainly cleanups and consolidation of
the "crashkernel=" kernel parameter handling.
- After much discussion, David Laight's "minmax: Relax type checks in
min() and max()" is here. Hopefully reduces some typecasting and the
use of min_t() and max_t().
- A group of patches from Oleg Nesterov which clean up and slightly fix
our handling of reads from /proc/PID/task/... and which remove
task_struct.therad_group.

sysctl-6.7-rc1
To help make the move of sysctls out of kernel/sysctl.c not incur a size
penalty sysctl has been changed to allow us to not require the sentinel, the
final empty element on the sysctl array. Joel Granados has been doing all this
work. On the v6.6 kernel we got the major infrastructure changes required to
support this. For v6.7-rc1 we have all arch/ and drivers/ modified to remove
the sentinel. Both arch and driver changes have been on linux-next for a bit
less than a month. It is worth re-iterating the value:
- this helps reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time
memory consumed by the kernel by about ~64 bytes per array
- the extra 64-byte penalty is no longer inncurred now when we move sysctls
out from kernel/sysctl.c to their own files
For v6.8-rc1 expect removal of all the sentinels and also then the unneeded
check for procname == NULL.
The last 2 patches are fixes recently merged by Krister Johansen which allow
us again to use softlockup_panic early on boot. This used to work but the
alias work broke it. This is useful for folks who want to detect softlockups
super early rather than wait and spend money on cloud solutions with nothing
but an eventual hung kernel. Although this hadn't gone through linux-next it's
also a stable fix, so we might as well roll through the fixes now.

watchdog: move softlockup_panic back to early_param
Setting softlockup_panic from do_sysctl_args() causes it to take effect later in boot. The lockup detector is enabled before SMP is brought online, but do_sysctl_args runs afterwards. If a user wants to set softlockup_panic on boot and have it trigger should a softlockup occur during onlining of the non-boot processors, they could do this prior to commit |

proc: sysctl: prevent aliased sysctls from getting passed to init
The code that checks for unknown boot options is unaware of the sysctl
alias facility, which maps bootparams to sysctl values. If a user sets
an old value that has a valid alias, a message about an invalid
parameter will be printed during boot, and the parameter will get passed
to init. Fix by checking for the existence of aliased parameters in the
unknown boot parameter code. If an alias exists, don't return an error
or pass the value to init.

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the usual miscellaneous features, cleanups, and fixes
for vfs and individual fses.
Features:
- Rename and export helpers that get write access to a mount. They
are used in overlayfs to get write access to the upper mount.
- Print the pretty name of the root device on boot failure. This
helps in scenarios where we would usually only print
"unknown-block(1,2)".
- Add an internal SB_I_NOUMASK flag. This is another part in the
endless POSIX ACL saga in a way.
When POSIX ACLs are enabled via SB_POSIXACL the vfs cannot strip
the umask because if the relevant inode has POSIX ACLs set it might
take the umask from there. But if the inode doesn't have any POSIX
ACLs set then we apply the umask in the filesytem itself. So we end
up with:
(1) no SB_POSIXACL -> strip umask in vfs
(2) SB_POSIXACL -> strip umask in filesystem
The umask semantics associated with SB_POSIXACL allowed filesystems
that don't even support POSIX ACLs at all to raise SB_POSIXACL
purely to avoid umask stripping. That specifically means NFS v4 and
Overlayfs. NFS v4 does it because it delegates this to the server
and Overlayfs because it needs to delegate umask stripping to the
upper filesystem, i.e., the filesystem used as the writable layer.
This went so far that SB_POSIXACL is raised eve on kernels that
don't even have POSIX ACL support at all.
Stop this blatant abuse and add SB_I_NOUMASK which is an internal
superblock flag that filesystems can raise to opt out of umask
handling. That should really only be the two mentioned above. It's
not that we want any filesystems to do this. Ideally we have all
umask handling always in the vfs.
- Make overlayfs use SB_I_NOUMASK too.
- Now that we have SB_I_NOUMASK, stop checking for SB_POSIXACL in
IS_POSIXACL() if the kernel doesn't have support for it. This is a
very old patch but it's only possible to do this now with the wider
cleanup that was done.
- Follow-up work on fake path handling from last cycle. Citing mostly
from Amir:
When overlayfs was first merged, overlayfs files of regular files
and directories, the ones that are installed in file table, had a
"fake" path, namely, f_path is the overlayfs path and f_inode is
the "real" inode on the underlying filesystem.
In v6.5, we took another small step by introducing of the
backing_file container and the file_real_path() helper. This change
allowed vfs and filesystem code to get the "real" path of an
overlayfs backing file. With this change, we were able to make
fsnotify work correctly and report events on the "real" filesystem
objects that were accessed via overlayfs.
This method works fine, but it still leaves the vfs vulnerable to
new code that is not aware of files with fake path. A recent
example is commit

mempolicy: alloc_pages_mpol() for NUMA policy without vma
Shrink shmem's stack usage by eliminating the pseudo-vma from its folio
allocation. alloc_pages_mpol(gfp, order, pol, ilx, nid) becomes the
principal actor for passing mempolicy choice down to __alloc_pages(),
rather than vma_alloc_folio(gfp, order, vma, addr, hugepage).
vma_alloc_folio() and alloc_pages() remain, but as wrappers around
alloc_pages_mpol(). alloc_pages_bulk_*() untouched, except to provide the
additional args to policy_nodemask(), which subsumes policy_node().
Cleanup throughout, cutting out some unhelpful "helpers".
It would all be much simpler without MPOL_INTERLEAVE, but that adds a
dynamic to the constant mpol: complicated by v3.6 commit

fs: create helper file_user_path() for user displayed mapped file path
Overlayfs uses backing files with "fake" overlayfs f_path and "real" underlying f_inode, in order to use underlying inode aops for mapped files and to display the overlayfs path in /proc/<pid>/maps. In preparation for storing the overlayfs "fake" path instead of the underlying "real" path in struct backing_file, define a noop helper file_user_path() that returns f_path for now. Use the new helper in procfs and kernel logs whenever a path of a mapped file is displayed to users.

file: convert to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU
In recent discussions around some performance improvements in the file handling area we discussed switching the file cache to rely on SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU which allows us to get rid of call_rcu() based freeing for files completely. This is a pretty sensitive change overall but it might actually be worth doing. The main downside is the subtlety. The other one is that we should really wait for Jann's patch to land that enables KASAN to handle SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU UAFs. Currently it doesn't but a patch for this exists. With SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU objects may be freed and reused multiple times which requires a few changes. So it isn't sufficient anymore to just acquire a reference to the file in question under rcu using atomic_long_inc_not_zero() since the file might have already been recycled and someone else might have bumped the reference. In other words, callers might see reference count bumps from newer users. For this reason it is necessary to verify that the pointer is the same before and after the reference count increment. This pattern can be seen in get_file_rcu() and __files_get_rcu(). In addition, it isn't possible to access or check fields in struct file without first aqcuiring a reference on it. Not doing that was always very dodgy and it was only usable for non-pointer data in struct file. With SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU it is necessary that callers first acquire a reference under rcu or they must hold the files_lock of the fdtable. Failing to do either one of this is a bug. Thanks to Jann for pointing out that we need to ensure memory ordering between reallocations and pointer check by ensuring that all subsequent loads have a dependency on the second load in get_file_rcu() and providing a fixup that was folded into this patch.

fs/proc/task_mmu: implement IOCTL to get and optionally clear info about PTEs
The PAGEMAP_SCAN IOCTL on the pagemap file can be used to get or optionally clear the info about page table entries. The following operations are supported in this IOCTL: - Scan the address range and get the memory ranges matching the provided criteria. This is performed when the output buffer is specified. - Write-protect the pages. The PM_SCAN_WP_MATCHING is used to write-protect the pages of interest. The PM_SCAN_CHECK_WPASYNC aborts the operation if non-Async Write Protected pages are found. The ``PM_SCAN_WP_MATCHING`` can be used with or without PM_SCAN_CHECK_WPASYNC. - Both of those operations can be combined into one atomic operation where we can get and write protect the pages as well. Following flags about pages are currently supported: - PAGE_IS_WPALLOWED - Page has async-write-protection enabled - PAGE_IS_WRITTEN - Page has been written to from the time it was write protected - PAGE_IS_FILE - Page is file backed - PAGE_IS_PRESENT - Page is present in the memory - PAGE_IS_SWAPPED - Page is in swapped - PAGE_IS_PFNZERO - Page has zero PFN - PAGE_IS_HUGE - Page is THP or Hugetlb backed This IOCTL can be extended to get information about more PTE bits. The entire address range passed by user [start, end) is scanned until either the user provided buffer is full or max_pages have been found.

fs/proc: Add boot loader arguments as comment to /proc/bootconfig
In kernels built with CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG_FORCE=y, /proc/cmdline will show all kernel boot parameters, both those supplied by the boot loader and those embedded in the kernel image. This works well for those who just want to see all of the kernel boot parameters, but is not helpful to those who need to see only those parameters supplied by the boot loader. This is especially important when these parameters are presented to the boot loader by automation that might gather them from diverse sources. It is also useful when booting the next kernel via kexec(), in which case it is necessary to supply only those kernel command-line arguments from the boot loader, and most definitely not those that were embedded into the current kernel. Therefore, add comments to /proc/bootconfig of the form: # Parameters from bootloader: # root=UUID=ac0f0548-a69d-43ca-a06b-7db01bcbd5ad ro quiet ... The second added line shows only those kernel boot parameters supplied by the boot loader.

proc/kcore: do not try to access unaccepted memory

proc: nommu: fix empty /proc/<pid>/maps
On no-MMU, /proc/<pid>/maps reads as an empty file. This happens because
find_vma(mm, 0) always returns NULL (assuming no vma actually contains the
zero address, which is normally the case).
To fix this bug and improve the maintainability in the future, this patch
makes the no-MMU implementation as similar as possible to the MMU
implementation.
The only remaining differences are the lack of hold/release_task_mempolicy
and the extra code to shoehorn the gate vma into the iterator.
This has been tested on top of 6.5.3 on an STM32F746.

proc: nommu: /proc/<pid>/maps: release mmap read lock
The no-MMU implementation of /proc/<pid>/map doesn't normally release
the mmap read lock, because it uses !IS_ERR_OR_NULL(_vml) to determine
whether to release the lock. Since _vml is NULL when the end of the
mappings is reached, the lock is not released.
Reading /proc/1/maps twice doesn't cause a hang because it only
takes the read lock, which can be taken multiple times and therefore
doesn't show any problem if the lock isn't released. Instead, you need
to perform some operation that attempts to take the write lock after
reading /proc/<pid>/maps. To actually reproduce the bug, compile the
following code as 'proc_maps_bug':
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
void *buf;
sleep(1);
buf = mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0);
puts("mmap returned");
return 0;
}
Then, run:
./proc_maps_bug &; cat /proc/$!/maps; fg
Without this patch, mmap() will hang and the command will never
complete.
This code was incorrectly adapted from the MMU implementation, which at
the time released the lock in m_next() before returning the last entry.
The MMU implementation has diverged further from the no-MMU version since
then, so this patch brings their locking and error handling into sync,
fixing the bug and hopefully avoiding similar issues in the future.

proc/ksm: add ksm stats to /proc/pid/smaps
With madvise and prctl KSM can be enabled for different VMA's. Once it is enabled we can query how effective KSM is overall. However we cannot easily query if an individual VMA benefits from KSM. This commit adds a KSM section to the /prod/<pid>/smaps file. It reports how many of the pages are KSM pages. Note that KSM-placed zeropages are not included, only actual KSM pages. Here is a typical output: 7f420a000000-7f421a000000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 Size: 262144 kB KernelPageSize: 4 kB MMUPageSize: 4 kB Rss: 51212 kB Pss: 8276 kB Shared_Clean: 172 kB Shared_Dirty: 42996 kB Private_Clean: 196 kB Private_Dirty: 7848 kB Referenced: 15388 kB Anonymous: 51212 kB KSM: 41376 kB LazyFree: 0 kB AnonHugePages: 0 kB ShmemPmdMapped: 0 kB FilePmdMapped: 0 kB Shared_Hugetlb: 0 kB Private_Hugetlb: 0 kB Swap: 202016 kB SwapPss: 3882 kB Locked: 0 kB THPeligible: 0 ProtectionKey: 0 ksm_state: 0 ksm_skip_base: 0 ksm_skip_count: 0 VmFlags: rd wr mr mw me nr mg anon This information also helps with the following workflow: - First enable KSM for all the VMA's of a process with prctl. - Then analyze with the above smaps report which VMA's benefit the most - Change the application (if possible) to add the corresponding madvise calls for the VMA's that benefit the most [shr@devkernel.io: v5] Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230823170107.1457915-1-shr@devkernel.io Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230822180539.1424843-1-shr@devkernel.io Signed-off-by: Stefan Roesch <shr@devkernel.io> Reviewed-by: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: Rik van Riel <riel@surriel.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> |

sysctl-6.6-rc1
Long ago we set out to remove the kitchen sink on kernel/sysctl.c arrays and placings sysctls to their own sybsystem or file to help avoid merge conflicts. Matthew Wilcox pointed out though that if we're going to do that we might as well also *save* space while at it and try to remove the extra last sysctl entry added at the end of each array, a sentintel, instead of bloating the kernel by adding a new sentinel with each array moved. Doing that was not so trivial, and has required slowing down the moves of kernel/sysctl.c arrays and measuring the impact on size by each new move. The complex part of the effort to help reduce the size of each sysctl is being done by the patient work of el señor Don Joel Granados. A lot of this is truly painful code refactoring and testing and then trying to measure the savings of each move and removing the sentinels. Although Joel already has code which does most of this work, experience with sysctl moves in the past shows is we need to be careful due to the slew of odd build failures that are possible due to the amount of random Kconfig options sysctls use. To that end Joel's work is split by first addressing the major housekeeping needed to remove the sentinels, which is part of this merge request. The rest of the work to actually remove the sentinels will be done later in future kernel releases. At first I was only going to send his first 7 patches of his patch series, posted 1 month ago, but in retrospect due to the testing the changes have received in linux-next and the minor changes they make this goes with the entire set of patches Joel had planned: just sysctl house keeping. There are networking changes but these are part of the house keeping too. The preliminary math is showing this will all help reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time memory consumed by the kernel by about ~64 bytes per array where we are able to remove each sentinel in the future. That also means there is no more bloating the kernel with the extra ~64 bytes per array moved as no new sentinels are created. Most of this has been in linux-next for about a month, the last 7 patches took a minor refresh 2 week ago based on feedback. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJGBAABCgAwFiEENnNq2KuOejlQLZofziMdCjCSiKcFAmTuVnMSHG1jZ3JvZkBr ZXJuZWwub3JnAAoJEM4jHQowkoinIckP/imvRlfkO6L0IP7MmJBRPtwY01rsTAKO Q14dZ//bG4DVQeGl1FdzrF6hhuLgekU0qW1YDFIWiCXO7CbaxaNBPSUkeW6ReVoC R/VHNUPxSR1PWQy1OTJV2t4XKri2sB7ijmUsfsATtISwhei9bggTHEysShtP4tv+ U87DzhoqMnbYIsfMo49KCqOa1Qm7TmjC1a7WAp6Fph3GJuXAzZR5pXpsd0NtOZ9x Ud5RT22icnQpMl7K+yPsqY6XcS5JkgBe/WbSzMAUkYZvBZFBq9t2D+OW5h9TZMhw piJWQ9X0Rm7qI2D15mJfXwaOhhyDhWci391hzdJmS6DI0prf6Ma2NFdAWOt/zomI uiRujS4bGeBUaK5F4TX2WQ1+jdMtAZ+0FncFnzt4U8q7dzUc91uVCm6iHW3gcfAb N7OEg2ZL0gkkgCZHqKxN8wpNQiC2KwnNk+HLAbnL2a/oJYfBtdopQmlxWfrN2hpF xxROiENqk483BRdMXDq6DR/gyDZmZWCobXIglSzlqCOjCOcLbDziIJ7pJk83ok09 h/QnXTYHf9protBq9OIQesgh2pwNzBBLifK84KZLKcb7IbdIKjpQrW5STp04oNGf wcGJzEz8tXUe0UKyMM47AcHQGzIy6cdXNLjyF8a+m7rnZzr1ndnMqZyRStZzuQin AUg2VWHKPmW9 =sq2p -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'sysctl-6.6-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/linux Pull sysctl updates from Luis Chamberlain: "Long ago we set out to remove the kitchen sink on kernel/sysctl.c arrays and placings sysctls to their own sybsystem or file to help avoid merge conflicts.

Pull vfs timestamp updates from Christian Brauner:
"This adds VFS support for multi-grain timestamps and converts tmpfs,
xfs, ext4, and btrfs to use them. This carries acks from all relevant
filesystems.
The VFS always uses coarse-grained timestamps when updating the ctime
and mtime after a change. This has the benefit of allowing filesystems
to optimize away a lot of metadata updates, down to around 1 per
jiffy, even when a file is under heavy writes.
Unfortunately, this has always been an issue when we're exporting via
NFSv3, which relies on timestamps to validate caches. A lot of changes
can happen in a jiffy, so timestamps aren't sufficient to help the
client decide to invalidate the cache.
Even with NFSv4, a lot of exported filesystems don't properly support
a change attribute and are subject to the same problems with timestamp
granularity. Other applications have similar issues with timestamps
(e.g., backup applications).
If we were to always use fine-grained timestamps, that would improve
the situation, but that becomes rather expensive, as the underlying
filesystem would have to log a lot more metadata updates.
This introduces fine-grained timestamps that are used when they are
actively queried.
This uses the 31st bit of the ctime tv_nsec field to indicate that
something has queried the inode for the mtime or ctime. When this flag
is set, on the next mtime or ctime update, the kernel will fetch a
fine-grained timestamp instead of the usual coarse-grained one.
As POSIX generally mandates that when the mtime changes, the ctime
must also change the kernel always stores normalized ctime values, so
only the first 30 bits of the tv_nsec field are ever used.
Filesytems can opt into this behavior by setting the FS_MGTIME flag in
the fstype. Filesystems that don't set this flag will continue to use
coarse-grained timestamps.
Various preparatory changes, fixes and cleanups are included:
- Fixup all relevant places where POSIX requires updating ctime
together with mtime. This is a wide-range of places and all
maintainers provided necessary Acks.
- Add new accessors for inode->i_ctime directly and change all
callers to rely on them. Plain accesses to inode->i_ctime are now
gone and it is accordingly rename to inode->__i_ctime and commented
as requiring accessors.
- Extend generic_fillattr() to pass in a request mask mirroring in a
sense the statx() uapi. This allows callers to pass in a request
mask to only get a subset of attributes filled in.
- Rework timestamp updates so it's possible to drop the @now
parameter the update_time() inode operation and associated helpers.
- Add inode_update_timestamps() and convert all filesystems to it
removing a bunch of open-coding"

document while_each_thread(), change first_tid() to use for_each_thread()
Add the comment to explain that while_each_thread(g,t) is not rcu-safe unless g is stable (e.g. current). Even if g is a group leader and thus can't exit before t, t or another sub-thread can exec and remove g from the thread_group list. The only lockless user of while_each_thread() is first_tid() and it is fine in that it can't loop forever, yet for_each_thread() looks better and I am going to change while_each_thread/next_thread.

mm: enable page walking API to lock vmas during the walk
walk_page_range() and friends often operate under write-locked mmap_lock. With introduction of vma locks, the vmas have to be locked as well during such walks to prevent concurrent page faults in these areas. Add an additional member to mm_walk_ops to indicate locking requirements for the walk. The change ensures that page walks which prevent concurrent page faults by write-locking mmap_lock, operate correctly after introduction of per-vma locks. With per-vma locks page faults can be handled under vma lock without taking mmap_lock at all, so write locking mmap_lock would not stop them. The change ensures vmas are properly locked during such walks. A sample issue this solves is do_mbind() performing queue_pages_range() to queue pages for migration. Without this change a concurrent page can be faulted into the area and be left out of migration.

smaps: use vm_normal_page_pmd() instead of follow_trans_huge_pmd()
We shouldn't be using a GUP-internal helper if it can be avoided. Similar to smaps_pte_entry() that uses vm_normal_page(), let's use vm_normal_page_pmd() that similarly refuses to return the huge zeropage. In contrast to follow_trans_huge_pmd(), vm_normal_page_pmd(): (1) Will always return the head page, not a tail page of a THP. If we'd ever call smaps_account with a tail page while setting "compound = true", we could be in trouble, because smaps_account() would look at the memmap of unrelated pages. If we're unlucky, that memmap does not exist at all. Before we removed PG_doublemap, we could have triggered something similar as in commit |

ksm: add ksm zero pages for each process
As the number of ksm zero pages is not included in ksm_merging_pages per process when enabling use_zero_pages, it's unclear of how many actual pages are merged by KSM. To let users accurately estimate their memory demands when unsharing KSM zero-pages, it's necessary to show KSM zero- pages per process. In addition, it help users to know the actual KSM profit because KSM-placed zero pages are also benefit from KSM. since unsharing zero pages placed by KSM accurately is achieved, then tracking empty pages merging and unmerging is not a difficult thing any longer. Since we already have /proc/<pid>/ksm_stat, just add the information of 'ksm_zero_pages' in it.

sysctl: Use ctl_table_size as stopping criteria for list macro
This is a preparation commit to make it easy to remove the sentinel elements (empty end markers) from the ctl_table arrays. It both allows the systematic removal of the sentinels and adds the ctl_table_size variable to the stopping criteria of the list_for_each_table_entry macro that traverses all ctl_table arrays. Once all the sentinels are removed by subsequent commits, ctl_table_size will become the only stopping criteria in the macro. We don't actually remove any elements in this commit, but it sets things up to for the removal process to take place. By adding header->ctl_table_size as an additional stopping criteria for the list_for_each_table_entry macro, it will execute until it finds an "empty" ->procname or until the size runs out. Therefore if a ctl_table array with a sentinel is passed its size will be too big (by one element) but it will stop on the sentinel. On the other hand, if the ctl_table array without a sentinel is passed its size will be just write and there will be no need for a sentinel.

This commit adds table_size to __register_sysctl_init in preparation for the removal of the sentinel elements in the ctl_table arrays (last empty markers). And though we do *not* remove any sentinels in this commit, we set things up by calculating the ctl_table array size with ARRAY_SIZE.

sysctl: Add size to register_sysctl
This commit adds table_size to register_sysctl in preparation for the removal of the sentinel elements in the ctl_table arrays (last empty markers). And though we do *not* remove any sentinels in this commit, we set things up by either passing the table_size explicitly or using ARRAY_SIZE on the ctl_table arrays. We replace the register_syctl function with a macro that will add the ARRAY_SIZE to the new register_sysctl_sz function. In this way the callers that are already using an array of ctl_table structs do not change. For the callers that pass a ctl_table array pointer, we pass the table_size to register_sysctl_sz instead of the macro.

sysctl: Add a size arg to __register_sysctl_table
We make these changes in order to prepare __register_sysctl_table and its callers for when we remove the sentinel element (empty element at the end of ctl_table arrays). We don't actually remove any sentinels in this commit, but we *do* make sure to use ARRAY_SIZE so the table_size is available when the removal occurs. We add a table_size argument to __register_sysctl_table and adjust callers, all of which pass ctl_table pointers and need an explicit call to ARRAY_SIZE. We implement a size calculation in register_net_sysctl in order to forward the size of the array pointer received from the network register calls. The new table_size argument does not yet have any effect in the init_header call which is still dependent on the sentinel's presence. table_size *does* however drive the `kzalloc` allocation in __register_sysctl_table with no adverse effects as the allocated memory is either one element greater than the calculated ctl_table array (for the calls in ipc_sysctl.c, mq_sysctl.c and ucount.c) or the exact size of the calculated ctl_table array (for the call from sysctl_net.c and register_sysctl). This approach will allows us to "just" remove the sentinel without further changes to __register_sysctl_table as table_size will represent the exact size for all the callers at that point.

sysctl: Add size argument to init_header
In this commit, we add a table_size argument to the init_header function in order to initialize the ctl_table_size variable in ctl_table_header. Even though the size is not yet used, it is now initialized within the sysctl subsys. We need this commit for when we start adding the table_size arguments to the sysctl functions (e.g. register_sysctl, __register_sysctl_table and __register_sysctl_init). Note that in __register_sysctl_table we temporarily use a calculated size until we add the size argument to that function in subsequent commits.

sysctl: Use ctl_table_header in list_for_each_table_entry
We replace the ctl_table with the ctl_table_header pointer in list_for_each_table_entry which is the macro responsible for traversing the ctl_table arrays. This is a preparation commit that will make it easier to add the ctl_table array size (that will be added to ctl_table_header in subsequent commits) to the already existing loop logic based on empty ctl_table elements (so called sentinels).

sysctl: Prefer ctl_table_header in proc_sysctl
This is a preparation commit that replaces ctl_table with ctl_table_header as the pointer that is passed around in proc_sysctl.c. This will become necessary in subsequent commits when the size of the ctl_table array can no longer be calculated by searching for an empty sentinel (last empty ctl_table element) but will be carried along inside the ctl_table_header struct.

fs: pass the request_mask to generic_fillattr
generic_fillattr just fills in the entire stat struct indiscriminately today, copying data from the inode. There is at least one attribute (STATX_CHANGE_COOKIE) that can have side effects when it is reported, and we're looking at adding more with the addition of multigrain timestamps. Add a request_mask argument to generic_fillattr and have most callers just pass in the value that is passed to getattr. Have other callers (e.g. ksmbd) just pass in STATX_BASIC_STATS. Also move the setting of STATX_CHANGE_COOKIE into generic_fillattr.

fs/proc/kcore: reinstate bounce buffer for KCORE_TEXT regions
Some architectures do not populate the entire range categorised by KCORE_TEXT, so we must ensure that the kernel address we read from is valid. Unfortunately there is no solution currently available to do so with a purely iterator solution so reinstate the bounce buffer in this instance so we can use copy_from_kernel_nofault() in order to avoid page faults when regions are unmapped.

x86: Expose thread features in /proc/$PID/status
Applications and loaders can have logic to decide whether to enable shadow stack. They usually don't report whether shadow stack has been enabled or not, so there is no way to verify whether an application actually is protected by shadow stack. Add two lines in /proc/$PID/status to report enabled and locked features. Since, this involves referring to arch specific defines in asm/prctl.h, implement an arch breakout to emit the feature lines.

proc/vmcore: fix signedness bug in read_from_oldmem()
The bug is the error handling:
if (tmp < nr_bytes) {
"tmp" can hold negative error codes but because "nr_bytes" is type size_t
the negative error codes are treated as very high positive values
(success). Fix this by changing "nr_bytes" to type ssize_t. The
"nr_bytes" variable is used to store values between 1 and PAGE_SIZE and
they can fit in ssize_t without any issue.

All other files in /proc/$PID/ use proc_setattr(). Not using it allows the usage of chmod() on /proc/$PID/net, even on other processes owned by the same user. The same would probably also be true for other attributes to be changed.

mm: Introduce VM_SHADOW_STACK for shadow stack memory
New hardware extensions implement support for shadow stack memory, such as x86 Control-flow Enforcement Technology (CET). Add a new VM flag to identify these areas, for example, to be used to properly indicate shadow stack PTEs to the hardware. Shadow stack VMA creation will be tightly controlled and limited to anonymous memory to make the implementation simpler and since that is all that is required. The solution will rely on pte_mkwrite() to create the shadow stack PTEs, so it will not be required for vm_get_page_prot() to learn how to create shadow stack memory. For this reason document that VM_SHADOW_STACK should not be mixed with VM_SHARED.

v6.5-rc1-sysctl-next
The changes queued up for v6.5-rc1 for sysctl are in line with prior efforts to stop usage of deprecated routines which incur recursion and also make it hard to remove the empty array element in each sysctl array declaration. The most difficult user to modify was parport which required a bit of re-thinking of how to declare shared sysctls there, Joel Granados has stepped up to the plate to do most of this work and eventual removal of register_sysctl_table(). That work ended up saving us about 1465 bytes according to bloat-o-meter. Since we gained a few bloat-o-meter karma points I moved two rather small sysctl arrays from kernel/sysctl.c leaving us only two more sysctl arrays to move left. Most changes have been tested on linux-next for about a month. The last straggler patches are a minor parport fix, changes to the sysctl kernel selftest so to verify correctness and prevent regressions for the future change he made to provide an alternative solution for the special sysctl mount point target which was using the now deprecated sysctl child element. This is all prep work to now finally be able to remove the empty array element in all sysctl declarations / registrations which is expected to save us a bit of bytes all over the kernel.

mm: ptep_get() conversion
Convert all instances of direct pte_t* dereferencing to instead use ptep_get() helper. This means that by default, the accesses change from a C dereference to a READ_ONCE(). This is technically the correct thing to do since where pgtables are modified by HW (for access/dirty) they are volatile and therefore we should always ensure READ_ONCE() semantics. But more importantly, by always using the helper, it can be overridden by the architecture to fully encapsulate the contents of the pte. Arch code is deliberately not converted, as the arch code knows best. It is intended that arch code (arm64) will override the default with its own implementation that can (e.g.) hide certain bits from the core code, or determine young/dirty status by mixing in state from another source. Conversion was done using Coccinelle: ---- // $ make coccicheck \ // COCCI=ptepget.cocci \ // SPFLAGS="--include-headers" \ // MODE=patch virtual patch @ depends on patch @ pte_t *v; @@ - *v + ptep_get(v) ---- Then reviewed and hand-edited to avoid multiple unnecessary calls to ptep_get(), instead opting to store the result of a single call in a variable, where it is correct to do so. This aims to negate any cost of READ_ONCE() and will benefit arch-overrides that may be more complex. Included is a fix for an issue in an earlier version of this patch that was pointed out by kernel test robot. The issue arose because config MMU=n elides definition of the ptep helper functions, including ptep_get(). HUGETLB_PAGE=n configs still define a simple huge_ptep_clear_flush() for linking purposes, which dereferences the ptep. So when both configs are disabled, this caused a build error because ptep_get() is not defined. Fix by continuing to do a direct dereference when MMU=n. This is safe because for this config the arch code cannot be trying to virtualize the ptes because none of the ptep helpers are defined.

No need to check pmd_trans_unstable(): that was precisely to avoid the possiblity of calling pte_offset_map() on a racily removed or inserted THP entry, but such cases are now safely handled inside it.

sysctl: replace child with an enumeration
This is part of the effort to remove the empty element at the end of ctl_table structs. "child" was a deprecated elem in this struct and was being used to differentiate between two types of ctl_tables: "normal" and "permanently emtpy". What changed?: * Replace "child" with an enumeration that will have two values: the default (0) and the permanently empty (1). The latter is left at zero so when struct ctl_table is created with kzalloc or in a local context, it will have the zero value by default. We document the new enum with kdoc. * Remove the "empty child" check from sysctl_check_table * Remove count_subheaders function as there is no longer a need to calculate how many headers there are for every child * Remove the recursive call to unregister_sysctl_table as there is no need to traverse down the child tree any longer * Add a new SYSCTL_PERM_EMPTY_DIR binary flag * Remove the last remanence of child from partport/procfs.c Signed-off-by: Joel Granados <j.granados@samsung.com> Signed-off-by: Luis Chamberlain <mcgrof@kernel.org> |

mm: Add support for unaccepted memory
UEFI Specification version 2.9 introduces the concept of memory
acceptance. Some Virtual Machine platforms, such as Intel TDX or AMD
SEV-SNP, require memory to be accepted before it can be used by the
guest. Accepting happens via a protocol specific to the Virtual Machine
platform.
There are several ways the kernel can deal with unaccepted memory:
1. Accept all the memory during boot. It is easy to implement and it
doesn't have runtime cost once the system is booted. The downside is
very long boot time.
Accept can be parallelized to multiple CPUs to keep it manageable
(i.e. via DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT), but it tends to saturate
memory bandwidth and does not scale beyond the point.
2. Accept a block of memory on the first use. It requires more
infrastructure and changes in page allocator to make it work, but
it provides good boot time.
On-demand memory accept means latency spikes every time kernel steps
onto a new memory block. The spikes will go away once workload data
set size gets stabilized or all memory gets accepted.
3. Accept all memory in background. Introduce a thread (or multiple)
that gets memory accepted proactively. It will minimize time the
system experience latency spikes on memory allocation while keeping
low boot time.
This approach cannot function on its own. It is an extension of #2:
background memory acceptance requires functional scheduler, but the
page allocator may need to tap into unaccepted memory before that.
The downside of the approach is that these threads also steal CPU
cycles and memory bandwidth from the user's workload and may hurt
user experience.
Implement #1 and #2 for now. #2 is the default. Some workloads may want
to use #1 with accept_memory=eager in kernel command line. #3 can be
implemented later based on user's demands.
Support of unaccepted memory requires a few changes in core-mm code:
- memblock accepts memory on allocation. It serves early boot memory
allocations and doesn't limit them to pre-accepted pool of memory.
- page allocator accepts memory on the first allocation of the page.
When kernel runs out of accepted memory, it accepts memory until the
high watermark is reached. It helps to minimize fragmentation.
EFI code will provide two helpers if the platform supports unaccepted
memory:
- accept_memory() makes a range of physical addresses accepted.
- range_contains_unaccepted_memory() checks anything within the range
of physical addresses requires acceptance.

sysctl: stop exporting register_sysctl_table
We make register_sysctl_table static because the only function calling it is in fs/proc/proc_sysctl.c (__register_sysctl_base). We remove it from the sysctl.h header and modify the documentation in both the header and proc_sysctl.c files to mention "register_sysctl" instead of "register_sysctl_table".

coredump, vmcore: Set p_align to 4 for PT_NOTE
Tools like readelf/llvm-readelf use p_align to parse a PT_NOTE program header as an array of 4-byte entries or 8-byte entries. Currently, there are workarounds[1] in place for Linux to treat p_align==0 as 4. However, it would be more appropriate to set the correct alignment so that tools do not have to rely on guesswork. FreeBSD coredumps set p_align to 4 as well.

sysctl: remove register_sysctl_paths()
The deprecation for register_sysctl_paths() is over. We can rejoice as
we nuke register_sysctl_paths(). The routine register_sysctl_table()
was the only user left of register_sysctl_paths(), so we can now just
open code and move the implementation over to what used to be
to __register_sysctl_paths().
The old dynamic struct ctl_table_set *set is now the point to
sysctl_table_root.default_set.
The old dynamic const struct ctl_path *path was being used in the
routine register_sysctl_paths() with a static:
static const struct ctl_path null_path[] = { {} };
Since this is a null path we can now just simplfy the old routine
and remove its use as its always empty.
This saves us a total of 230 bytes.

sysctl-6.4-rc1
This pull request goes with only a few sysctl moves from the kernel/sysctl.c file, the rest of the work has been put towards deprecating two API calls which incur recursion and prevent us from simplifying the registration process / saving memory per move. Most of the changes have been soaking on linux-next since v6.3-rc3. I've slowed down the kernel/sysctl.c moves due to Matthew Wilcox's feedback that we should see if we could *save* memory with these moves instead of incurring more memory. We currently incur more memory since when we move a syctl from kernel/sysclt.c out to its own file we end up having to add a new empty sysctl used to register it. To achieve saving memory we want to allow syctls to be passed without requiring the end element being empty, and just have our registration process rely on ARRAY_SIZE(). Without this, supporting both styles of sysctls would make the sysctl registration pretty brittle, hard to read and maintain as can be seen from Meng Tang's efforts to do just this [0]. Fortunately, in order to use ARRAY_SIZE() for all sysctl registrations also implies doing the work to deprecate two API calls which use recursion in order to support sysctl declarations with subdirectories. And so during this development cycle quite a bit of effort went into this deprecation effort. I've annotated the following two APIs are deprecated and in few kernel releases we should be good to remove them: * register_sysctl_table() * register_sysctl_paths() During this merge window we should be able to deprecate and unexport register_sysctl_paths(), we can probably do that towards the end of this merge window. Deprecating register_sysctl_table() will take a bit more time but this pull request goes with a few example of how to do this. As it turns out each of the conversions to move away from either of these two API calls *also* saves memory. And so long term, all these changes *will* prove to have saved a bit of memory on boot. The way I see it then is if remove a user of one deprecated call, it gives us enough savings to move one kernel/sysctl.c out from the generic arrays as we end up with about the same amount of bytes. Since deprecating register_sysctl_table() and register_sysctl_paths() does not require maintainer coordination except the final unexport you'll see quite a bit of these changes from other pull requests, I've just kept the stragglers after rc3.

fs/proc: add Kthread flag to /proc/$pid/status
The command `ps -ef ` and `top -c` mark kernel thread by '[' and ']', but sometimes the result is not correct. The task->flags in /proc/$pid/stat is good, but we need remember the value of PF_KTHREAD is 0x00200000 and convert dec to hex. If we have no binary program and shell script which read /proc/$pid/stat, we can know it directly by `cat /proc/$pid/status`.

mm: add new KSM process and sysfs knobs
This adds the general_profit KSM sysfs knob and the process profit metric knobs to ksm_stat. 1) expose general_profit metric The documentation mentions a general profit metric, however this metric is not calculated. In addition the formula depends on the size of internal structures, which makes it more difficult for an administrator to make the calculation. Adding the metric for a better user experience. 2) document general_profit sysfs knob 3) calculate ksm process profit metric The ksm documentation mentions the process profit metric and how to calculate it. This adds the calculation of the metric. 4) mm: expose ksm process profit metric in ksm_stat This exposes the ksm process profit metric in /proc/<pid>/ksm_stat. The documentation mentions the formula for the ksm process profit metric, however it does not calculate it. In addition the formula depends on the size of internal structures. So it makes sense to expose it. 5) document new procfs ksm knobs Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230418051342.1919757-3-shr@devkernel.io Signed-off-by: Stefan Roesch <shr@devkernel.io> Reviewed-by: Bagas Sanjaya <bagasdotme@gmail.com> Acked-by: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com> Cc: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Cc: Rik van Riel <riel@surriel.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> |
