| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add support for the Adiantum encryption mode to fscrypt. Adiantum is a tweakable, length-preserving encryption mode with security provably reducible to that of XChaCha12 and AES-256, subject to a security bound. It's also a true wide-block mode, unlike XTS. See the paper "Adiantum: length-preserving encryption for entry-level processors" (https://eprint.iacr.org/2018/720.pdf) for more details. Also see commit 059c2a4d8e16 ("crypto: adiantum - add Adiantum support"). On sufficiently long messages, Adiantum's bottlenecks are XChaCha12 and the NH hash function. These algorithms are fast even on processors without dedicated crypto instructions. Adiantum makes it feasible to enable storage encryption on low-end mobile devices that lack AES instructions; currently such devices are unencrypted. On ARM Cortex-A7, on 4096-byte messages Adiantum encryption is about 4 times faster than AES-256-XTS encryption; decryption is about 5 times faster. In fscrypt, Adiantum is suitable for encrypting both file contents and names. With filenames, it fixes a known weakness: when two filenames in a directory share a common prefix of >= 16 bytes, with CTS-CBC their encrypted filenames share a common prefix too, leaking information. Adiantum does not have this problem. Since Adiantum also accepts long tweaks (IVs), it's also safe to use the master key directly for Adiantum encryption rather than deriving per-file keys, provided that the per-file nonce is included in the IVs and the master key isn't used for any other encryption mode. This configuration saves memory and improves performance. A new fscrypt policy flag is added to allow users to opt-in to this configuration.

Their monitoring tool is triggering false alarms on PR_SET_THP_DISABLE tasks because it considers an insufficient THP usage as a memory fragmentation resp. memory pressure issue. Before the said commit each newly created VMA inherited VM_NOHUGEPAGE flag and that got exposed to the userspace via /proc/<pid>/smaps file. This implementation had its downsides as explained in the commit message but it is true that the userspace doesn't have any means to query for the process wide THP enabled/disabled status. PR_SET_THP_DISABLE is a process wide flag so it makes a lot of sense to export in the process wide context rather than per-vma. Introduce a new field to /proc/<pid>/status which export this status. If PR_SET_THP_DISABLE is used then it reports false same as when the THP is not compiled in. It doesn't consider the global THP status because we already export that information via sysfs Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181211143641.3503-4-mhocko@kernel.org Fixes: 1860033237d4 ("mm: make PR_SET_THP_DISABLE immediately active") Signed-off-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Acked-by: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Reported-by: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Cc: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com> Cc: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Cc: Mike Rapoport <rppt@linux.ibm.com> Cc: Paul Oppenheimer <bepvte@gmail.com> Cc: William Kucharski <william.kucharski@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
* | mm, thp, proc: report THP eligibility for each vmaMichal Hocko2018-12-281-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Userspace falls short when trying to find out whether a specific memory range is eligible for THP. There are usecases that would like to know that http://lkml.kernel.org/r/alpine.DEB.2.21.1809251248450.50347@chino.kir.corp.google.com : This is used to identify heap mappings that should be able to fault thp : but do not, and they normally point to a low-on-memory or fragmentation : issue. The only way to deduce this now is to query for hg resp. nh flags and confronting the state with the global setting. Except that there is also PR_SET_THP_DISABLE that might change the picture. So the final logic is not trivial. Moreover the eligibility of the vma depends on the type of VMA as well. In the past we have supported only anononymous memory VMAs but things have changed and shmem based vmas are supported as well these days and the query logic gets even more complicated because the eligibility depends on the mount option and another global configuration knob. Simplify the current state and report the THP eligibility in /proc/<pid>/smaps for each existing vma. Reuse transparent_hugepage_enabled for this purpose. The original implementation of this function assumes that the caller knows that the vma itself is supported for THP so make the core checks into __transparent_hugepage_enabled and use it for existing callers. __show_smap just use the new transparent_hugepage_enabled which also checks the vma support status (please note that this one has to be out of line due to include dependency issues).

* | mm, proc: be more verbose about unstable VMA flags in /proc/<pid>/smapsMichal Hocko2018-12-281-1/+3
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch series "THP eligibility reporting via proc". This series of three patches aims at making THP eligibility reporting much more robust and long term sustainable. The trigger for the change is a regression report [2] and the long follow up discussion. In short the specific application didn't have good API to query whether a particular mapping can be backed by THP so it has used VMA flags to workaround that. These flags represent a deep internal state of VMAs and as such they should be used by userspace with a great deal of caution. A similar has happened for [3] when users complained that VM_MIXEDMAP is no longer set on DAX mappings. Again a lack of a proper API led to an abuse. The first patch in the series tries to emphasise that that the semantic of flags might change and any application consuming those should be really careful. The remaining two patches provide a more suitable interface to address [2] and provide a consistent API to query the THP status both for each VMA and process wide as well. [1] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181120103515.25280-1-mhocko@kernel.org [2] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/http://lkml.kernel.org/r/alpine.DEB.2.21.1809241054050.224429@chino.kir.corp.google.com [3] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181002100531.GC4135@quack2.suse.cz This patch (of 3): Even though vma flags exported via /proc/<pid>/smaps are explicitly documented to be not guaranteed for future compatibility the warning doesn't go far enough because it doesn't mention semantic changes to those flags. And they are important as well because these flags are a deep implementation internal to the MM code and the semantic might change at any time. Let's consider two recent examples: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181002100531.GC4135@quack2.suse.cz : commit e1fb4a086495 "dax: remove VM_MIXEDMAP for fsdax and device dax" has : removed VM_MIXEDMAP flag from DAX VMAs. Now our testing shows that in the : mean time certain customer of ours started poking into /proc/<pid>/smaps : and looks at VMA flags there and if VM_MIXEDMAP is missing among the VMA : flags, the application just fails to start complaining that DAX support is : missing in the kernel. http://lkml.kernel.org/r/alpine.DEB.2.21.1809241054050.224429@chino.kir.corp.google.com : Commit 1860033237d4 ("mm: make PR_SET_THP_DISABLE immediately active") : introduced a regression in that userspace cannot always determine the set : of vmas where thp is ineligible. : Userspace relies on the "nh" flag being emitted as part of /proc/pid/smaps : to determine if a vma is eligible to be backed by hugepages. : Previous to this commit, prctl(PR_SET_THP_DISABLE, 1) would cause thp to : be disabled and emit "nh" as a flag for the corresponding vmas as part of : /proc/pid/smaps. After the commit, thp is disabled by means of an mm : flag and "nh" is not emitted. : This causes smaps parsing libraries to assume a vma is eligible for thp : and ends up puzzling the user on why its memory is not backed by thp. In both cases userspace was relying on a semantic of a specific VMA flag. The primary reason why that happened is a lack of a proper interface. While this has been worked on and it will be fixed properly, it seems that our wording could see some refinement and be more vocal about semantic aspect of these flags as well.

That rework is the contents of this pull request. Rework the vfs_clone_file_range and vfs_dedupe_file_range infrastructure to use a common .remap_file_range method and supply generic bounds and sanity checking functions that are shared with the data write path. The current VFS infrastructure has problems with rlimit, LFS file sizes, file time stamps, maximum filesystem file sizes, stripping setuid bits, etc and so they are addressed in these commits. We also introduce the ability for the ->remap_file_range methods to return short clones so that clones for vfs_copy_file_range() don't get rejected if the entire range can't be cloned. It also allows filesystems to sliently skip deduplication of partial EOF blocks if they are not capable of doing so without requiring errors to be thrown to userspace.

This is a requirement for allowing fs implementations to return short clone/dedupe results to the user, which will enable us to obey resource limits in a graceful manner. A subsequent patch will enable copy_file_range to signal to the ->clone_file_range implementation that it can handle a short length, which will be returned in the function's return value. For now the short return is not implemented anywhere so the behavior won't change -- either copy_file_range manages to clone the entire range or it tries an alternative. Neither clone ioctl can take advantage of this, alas. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Current behavior is to automatically disable metacopy if redirect_dir is not enabled and proceed with the mount. If "metacopy=on" mount option was given, then this behavior can confuse the user: no mount failure, yet metacopy is disabled. This patch makes metacopy=on imply redirect_dir=on. The converse is also true: turning off full redirect with redirect_dir= {off|follow|nofollow} will disable metacopy. If both metacopy=on and redirect_dir={off|follow|nofollow} is specified, then mount will fail, since there's no way to correctly resolve the conflict.

In /proc/meminfo, we can show the sum of all reclaimable kernel allocations (including slab) as "KReclaimable". Add the same counter also to per-node meminfo under /sys With this counter, users will have more complete information about kernel memory usage. Non-slab reclaimable pages (currently just the ION allocator) will not be missing from /proc/meminfo, making users wonder where part of their memory went. More precisely, they already appear in MemAvailable, but without the new counter, it's not obvious why the value in MemAvailable doesn't fully correspond with the sum of other counters participating in it.

Not sure what would be the correct way, so my apologies for ruining your inbox. The 00-INDEX files are supposed to give a summary of all files present in a directory, but these files are horribly out of date and their usefulness is brought into question. Often a simple "ls" would reveal the same information as the filenames are generally quite descriptive as a short introduction to what the file covers (it should not surprise anyone what Documentation/sched/sched-design-CFS.txt covers) A few years back it was mentioned that these files were no longer really needed, and they have since then grown further out of date, so perhaps it is time to just throw them out. A short status yields the following _outdated_ 00-INDEX files, first counter is files listed in 00-INDEX but missing in the directory, last is files present but not listed in 00-INDEX.

I don't really have an opinion to whether or not we /should/ have 00-INDEX, but the above 00-INDEX should either be removed or be kept up to date. If we should keep the files, I can try to keep them updated, but I rather not if we just want to delete them anyway.

| | |/ | |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It turns out that the latex table formatters lay out table columns with the exact proportional widths given in the table metadata, even if text overflows outside the box. This was not caught during the initial import because the HTML renderers are smart enough to fudge the table. Fix the table column width formatting problems in the data structures and algorithms documentation so that we don't have squashed columns. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

| * | f2fs: checkpoint disablingDaniel Rosenberg2018-10-161-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Note that, it requires "f2fs: return correct errno in f2fs_gc". This adds a lightweight non-persistent snapshotting scheme to f2fs. To use, mount with the option checkpoint=disable, and to return to normal operation, remount with checkpoint=enable. If the filesystem is shut down before remounting with checkpoint=enable, it will revert back to its apparent state when it was first mounted with checkpoint=disable. This is useful for situations where you wish to be able to roll back the state of the disk in case of some critical failure.
