* x86/signal: Implement sigaltstack size validationThomas Gleixner2021-10-261-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For historical reasons MINSIGSTKSZ is a constant which became already too small with AVX512 support. Add a mechanism to enforce strict checking of the sigaltstack size against the real size of the FPU frame. The strict check can be enabled via a config option and can also be controlled via the kernel command line option 'strict_sas_size' independent of the config switch. Enabling it might break existing applications which allocate a too small sigaltstack but 'work' because they never get a signal delivered. Though it can be handy to filter out binaries which are not yet aware of AT_MINSIGSTKSZ. Also the upcoming support for dynamically enabled FPU features requires a strict sanity check to ensure that: - Enabling of a dynamic feature, which changes the sigframe size fits into an enabled sigaltstack - Installing a too small sigaltstack after a dynamic feature has been added is not possible. Implement the base check which is controlled by config and command line options. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Chang S.

This is some of the left-overs from the merge window that I didn't want to deal with yesterday, so it comes in after -rc1 but was sent before. Gcc-4.9 support has been an annoyance for some time, and with -Werror I had the choice of applying a fairly big patch from Kees Cook to remove a fair number of initializer warnings (still leaving some), or this patch series from Nick that just removes the source of the problem. The initializer cleanups might still be worth it regardless, but honestly, I preferred just tackling the problem with gcc-4.9 head-on. We've been more aggressiuve about no longer having to care about compilers that were released a long time ago, and I think it's been a good thing. I added a couple of patches on top to sort out a few left-overs now that we no longer support gcc-4.x. As noted by Arnd, as a result of this minimum compiler version upgrade we can probably change our use of '--std=gnu89' to '--std=gnu11', and finally start using local loop declarations etc. But this series does _not_ yet do that.

In addition to memory hot(un)plug, also add some details regarding ZONE_MOVABLE, with memory hotunplug being one of its main consumers. Drop the file history, that information can more reliably be had from the git log. The style of the document is also properly fixed that e.g., "restview" renders it cleanly now. In the future, we might add some more details about virt users like virtio-mem, the XEN balloon, the Hyper-V balloon and ppc64 dlpar.

MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY will be adequately documented in the internal admin-guide with this patch. Eventually, the man pages for mbind(2), get_mempolicy(2), set_mempolicy(2) and numactl(8) will also have text about this mode. Those shall contain the canonical reference. NUMA systems continue to become more prevalent. New technologies like PMEM make finer grain control over memory access patterns increasingly desirable. MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY allows userspace to specify a set of nodes that will be tried first when performing allocations. If those allocations fail, all remaining nodes will be tried. It's a straight forward API which solves many of the presumptive needs of system administrators wanting to optimize workloads on such machines. The mode will work either per VMA, or per thread.

| * | | mm: compaction: support triggering of proactive compaction by userCharan Teja Reddy2021-09-031-1/+2
| |/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The proactive compaction[1] gets triggered for every 500msec and run compaction on the node for COMPACTION_HPAGE_ORDER (usually order-9) pages based on the value set to sysctl.compaction_proactiveness. Triggering the compaction for every 500msec in search of COMPACTION_HPAGE_ORDER pages is not needed for all applications, especially on the embedded system usecases which may have few MB's of RAM. Enabling the proactive compaction in its state will endup in running almost always on such systems. Other side, proactive compaction can still be very much useful for getting a set of higher order pages in some controllable manner(controlled by using the sysctl.compaction_proactiveness). So, on systems where enabling the proactive compaction always may proove not required, can trigger the same from user space on write to its sysctl interface. As an example, say app launcher decide to launch the memory heavy application which can be launched fast if it gets more higher order pages thus launcher can prepare the system in advance by triggering the proactive compaction from userspace. This triggering of proactive compaction is done on a write to sysctl.compaction_proactiveness by user.

Unfortunately, in Arista we maintain some DUTs (Device Under Test) that are configured to have 9600 baud rate. While verbose console messages have their value to post-analyze crashes, on such setup they: - may prevent panic/oops messages being printed - take too long to flush on console resulting in watchdog reboot In all our setups we use kdump which saves dmesg buffer after panic, so in reality those extra messages on console provide no additional value, but rather add risk of not getting to __crash_kexec(). Provide printk.console_no_auto_verbose boot parameter, which allows to switch off printk being verbose on oops/panic/lockdep.

(2) allows ID_AA64PFR1_EL1.MTE to be overridden on its shadow value by giving "arm64.nomte" on cmdline. When the feature value is off, ATA and TCF will not set and the related functionalities are accordingly suppressed.

For memory, however, they won't be migrated to the new nodes when cpuset.mems changes. This is an inconsistency in behavior. In cpuset v1, there is a memory_migrate control file to enable such behavior by setting the CS_MEMORY_MIGRATE flag. Make it the default for cpuset v2 so that we have a consistent set of behavior for both cpus and memory. There is certainly a cost to make memory migration the default, but it is a one time cost that shouldn't really matter as long as cpuset.mems isn't changed frequenty. Update the cgroup-v2.rst file to document the new behavior and recommend against changing cpuset.mems frequently. Since there won't be any concurrent access to the newly allocated cpuset structure in cpuset_css_alloc(), we can use the cheaper non-atomic __set_bit() instead of the more expensive atomic set_bit().

These DM changes allow supported DM targets' configurations to be measured via IMA. But the policy and enforcement (of which configurations are valid) is managed by something outside the kernel (e.g. Keylime). - Fix DM crypt scalability regression on systems with many cpus due to percpu_counter spinlock contention in crypt_page_alloc(). - Use in_hardirq() instead of deprecated in_irq() in DM crypt. - Add event counters to DM writecache to allow users to further assess how the writecache is performing. - Various code cleanup in DM writecache's main IO mapping function. * tag 'for-5.15/dm-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm: dm crypt: use in_hardirq() instead of deprecated in_irq() dm ima: update dm documentation for ima measurement support dm ima: update dm target attributes for ima measurements dm ima: add a warning in dm_init if duplicate ima events are not measured dm ima: prefix ima event name related to device mapper with dm_ dm ima: add version info to dm related events in ima log dm ima: prefix dm table hashes in ima log with hash algorithm dm crypt: Avoid percpu_counter spinlock contention in crypt_page_alloc() dm: add documentation for IMA measurement support dm: update target status functions to support IMA measurement dm ima: measure data on device rename dm ima: measure data on table clear dm ima: measure data on device remove dm ima: measure data on device resume dm ima: measure data on table load dm writecache: add event counters dm writecache: report invalid return from writecache_map helpers dm writecache: further writecache_map() cleanup dm writecache: factor out writecache_map_remap_origin() dm writecache: split up writecache_map() to improve code readability

It is also missing the grammar for various DM events and targets, which can help the attestation servers to determine what data to expect for a given DM device. Further, the documentation needs to be updated to incorporate code changes made to DM ima events and targets as part of this patch series. For instance, prefixing the event names with "dm_", adding the DM version to events, prefixing the table hashes in the ima log with the hash algorithm etc. There are warnings reported by 'make htmldocs' on dm-ima.rst, which need to be fixed. And lastly, the expected behavior needs to be documented when the configuration CONFIG_IMA_DISABLE_HTABLE is disabled. Update the documentation to add examples for 'cache', 'integrity', 'multipath', and 'snapshot' targets. Add the grammar for various DM events and targets in Backus Naur form, so that the attestation servers can interpret and act on the ima measurements for DM target. Fix htmldocs warnings in dm-ima.rst. Update the documentation to be consistent with the code changes that are part of this patch series.
