| * bpf: adjust verifier heuristicsDaniel Borkmann2017-05-181-1/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Current limits with regards to processing program paths do not really reflect today's needs anymore due to programs becoming more complex and verifier smarter, keeping track of more data such as const ALU operations, alignment tracking, spilling of PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_ADJ registers, and other features allowing for smarter matching of what LLVM generates. This also comes with the side-effect that we result in fewer opportunities to prune search states and thus often need to do more work to prove safety than in the past due to different register states and stack layout where we mismatch. Generally, it's quite hard to determine what caused a sudden increase in complexity, it could be caused by something as trivial as a single branch somewhere at the beginning of the program where LLVM assigned a stack slot that is marked differently throughout other branches and thus causing a mismatch, where verifier then needs to prove safety for the whole rest of the program. Subsequently, programs with even less than half the insn size limit can get rejected. We noticed that while some programs load fine under pre 4.11, they get rejected due to hitting limits on more recent kernels. We saw that in the vast majority of cases (90+%) pruning failed due to register mismatches. In case of stack mismatches, majority of cases failed due to different stack slot types (invalid, spill, misc) rather than differences in spilled registers. This patch makes pruning more aggressive by also adding markers that sit at conditional jumps as well. Currently, we only mark jump targets for pruning. For example in direct packet access, these are usually error paths where we bail out. We found that adding these markers, it can reduce number of processed insns by up to 30%. Another option is to ignore reg->id in probing PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_OR_NULL registers, which can help pruning slightly as well by up to 7% observed complexity reduction as stand-alone. Meaning, if a previous path with register type PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_OR_NULL for map X was found to be safe, then in the current state a PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_OR_NULL register for the same map X must be safe as well. Last but not least the patch also adds a scheduling point and bumps the current limit for instructions to be processed to a more adequate value.

The task is doing fork(), while the pid namespace's child reaper is dying. We have the race between them: Task from parent pid_ns Child reaper copy_process() .. alloc_pid() .. .. zap_pid_ns_processes() .. disable_pid_allocation() .. read_lock(&tasklist_lock) .. iterate over pids in pid_ns .. kill tasks linked to pids .. read_unlock(&tasklist_lock) write_lock_irq(&tasklist_lock); .. attach_pid(p, PIDTYPE_PID); .. .. .. So, just created task p won't receive SIGKILL signal, and the pid namespace will be in contradictory state. Only manual kill will help there, but does the userspace care about this? I suppose, the most users just inject a task into a pid namespace and wait a SIGCHLD from it. The patch fixes the problem. It simply checks for (pid_ns->nr_hashed & PIDNS_HASH_ADDING) in copy_process(). We do it under the tasklist_lock, and can't skip PIDNS_HASH_ADDING as noted by Oleg: "zap_pid_ns_processes() does disable_pid_allocation() and then takes tasklist_lock to kill the whole namespace. Given that copy_process() checks PIDNS_HASH_ADDING under write_lock(tasklist) they can't race; if copy_process() takes this lock first, the new child will be killed, otherwise copy_process() can't miss the change in ->nr_hashed." If allocation is disabled, we just return -ENOMEM like it's made for such cases in alloc_pid(). v2: Do not move disable_pid_allocation(), do not introduce a new variable in copy_process() and simplify the patch as suggested by Oleg Nesterov.

| * pid_ns: Sleep in TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE in zap_pid_ns_processesEric W. Biederman2017-05-141-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The code can potentially sleep for an indefinite amount of time in zap_pid_ns_processes triggering the hung task timeout, and increasing the system average. This is undesirable. Sleep with a task state of TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE instead of TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE to remove these undesirable side effects. Apparently under heavy load this has been allowing Chrome to trigger the hung time task timeout error and cause ChromeOS to reboot.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a new field, "prog_flags", and an initial flag value BPF_F_STRICT_ALIGNMENT. When set, the verifier will enforce strict pointer alignment regardless of the setting of CONFIG_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS. The verifier, in this mode, will also use a fixed value of "2" in place of NET_IP_ALIGN. This facilitates test cases that will exercise and validate this part of the verifier even when run on architectures where alignment doesn't matter. Signed-off-by: David S.

| * bpf: Track alignment of register values in the verifier.David S. Miller2017-05-111-19/+89
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently if we add only constant values to pointers we can fully validate the alignment, and properly check if we need to reject the program on !CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS architectures. However, once an unknown value is introduced we only allow byte sized memory accesses which is too restrictive. Add logic to track the known minimum alignment of register values, and propagate this state into registers containing pointers. The most common paradigm that makes use of this new logic is computing the transport header using the IP header length field. For example: struct ethhdr *ep = skb->data; struct iphdr *iph = (struct iphdr *) (ep + 1); struct tcphdr *th; ... n = iph->ihl; th = ((void *)iph + (n * 4)); port = th->dest; The existing code will reject the load of th->dest because it cannot validate that the alignment is at least 2 once "n * 4" is added the the packet pointer. In the new code, the register holding "n * 4" will have a reg->min_align value of 4, because any value multiplied by 4 will be at least 4 byte aligned. (actually, the eBPF code emitted by the compiler in this case is most likely to use a shift left by 2, but the end result is identical) At the critical addition: th = ((void *)iph + (n * 4)); The register holding 'th' will start with reg->off value of 14. The pointer addition will transform that reg into something that looks like: reg->aux_off = 14 reg->aux_off_align = 4 Next, the verifier will look at the th->dest load, and it will see a load offset of 2, and first check: if (reg->aux_off_align % size) which will pass because aux_off_align is 4. reg_off will be computed: reg_off = reg->off; ... reg_off += reg->aux_off; plus we have off==2, and it will thus check: if ((NET_IP_ALIGN + reg_off + off) % size != 0) which evaluates to: if ((NET_IP_ALIGN + 14 + 2) % size != 0) On strict alignment architectures, NET_IP_ALIGN is 2, thus: if ((2 + 14 + 2) % size != 0) which passes. These pointer transformations and checks work regardless of whether the constant offset or the variable with known alignment is added first to the pointer register. Signed-off-by: David S.

This means that an eight-CPU system can have all CPUs doing synchronize_srcu() in a tight loop and almost always expedite. This might actually be desirable in some situations, but in general it is a good way to needlessly burn CPU cycles. And in those situations where it is desirable, your friend is the function synchronize_srcu_expedited(). For other situations, this commit adds a kernel parameter that specifies a holdoff between completing the last SRCU grace period and auto-expediting the next. If the next grace period starts before the holdoff expires, auto-expediting is disabled. The holdoff is 50 microseconds by default, and can be tuned to the desired number of nanoseconds. A value of zero disables auto-expediting. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Tested-by: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de>

In particular, Mike showed that Steven Rostedt's hotplug stress script takes 55 seconds with Classic SRCU and more than 16 -minutes- when running Tree SRCU. Assuming that each Tree SRCU's call to synchronize_srcu() takes four milliseconds, this implies that Steven's test invokes synchronize_srcu() in isolation, but more than once per 200 microseconds. Mike used ftrace to demonstrate that the time between successive calls to synchronize_srcu() ranged from 118 to 342 microseconds, with one outlier at 80 milliseconds. This data clearly indicates that Tree SRCU needs to expedite the first invocation of synchronize_srcu() during an SRCU idle period. This commit therefor introduces a srcu_might_be_idle() function that probabilistically checks whether or not SRCU is idle. This function is used by synchronize_rcu() as an additional criterion in deciding whether or not to expedite. (Hat trick to Peter Zijlstra for his earlier suggestion that this might in fact be a problem. Which for all I know might have motivated Mike to look into it.)

This works, but represents a memory-contention bottleneck. This commit therefore uses the srcu_node combining tree to remove this bottleneck. This commit adds new ->srcu_gp_seq_needed_exp fields to the srcu_data, srcu_node, and srcu_struct structures, which track the farthest-in-the-future grace period that must be expedited, which in turn requires that all nearer-term grace periods also be expedited. Requests for expediting start with the srcu_data structure, run up through the srcu_node tree, and end at the srcu_struct structure. Note that it may be necessary to expedite a grace period that just now started, and this is handled by a new srcu_funnel_exp_start() function, which is invoked when the grace period itself is already in its way, but when that grace period was not marked as expedited. A new srcu_get_delay() function returns zero if there is at least one expedited SRCU grace period in flight, or SRCU_INTERVAL otherwise. This function is used to calculate delays: Normal grace periods are allowed to extend in order to cover more requests with a given grace-period computation, which decreases per-request overhead.

However, just the call to schedule() guarantees that the calling task has moved off of whatever tracing trampoline that it might have been one previously. This commit therefore plumbs schedule()'s "preempt" parameter into rcu_note_context_switch(), which then records the Tasks RCU quiescent state, but only if this call to schedule() was -not- due to a preemption. To avoid adding overhead to the common-case context-switch path, this commit hides the rcu_note_context_switch() check under an existing non-common-case check.

This commit therefore moves SRCU to per-CPU callback lists, thus greatly reducing contention. Because a given SRCU instance no longer has a single centralized callback list, starting grace periods and invoking callbacks are both more complex than in the single-list Classic SRCU implementation. Starting grace periods and handling callbacks are now handled using an srcu_node tree that is in some ways similar to the rcu_node trees used by RCU-bh, RCU-preempt, and RCU-sched (for example, the srcu_node tree shape is controlled by exactly the same Kconfig options and boot parameters that control the shape of the rcu_node tree). In addition, the old per-CPU srcu_array structure is now named srcu_data and contains an rcu_segcblist structure named ->srcu_cblist for its callbacks (and a spinlock to protect this). The srcu_struct gets an srcu_gp_seq that is used to associate callback segments with the corresponding completion-time grace-period number. These completion-time grace-period numbers are propagated up the srcu_node tree so that the grace-period workqueue handler can determine whether additional grace periods are needed on the one hand and where to look for callbacks that are ready to be invoked. The srcu_barrier() function must now wait on all instances of the per-CPU ->srcu_cblist. Because each ->srcu_cblist is protected by ->lock, srcu_barrier() can remotely add the needed callbacks. In theory, it could also remotely start grace periods, but in practice doing so is complex and racy. And interestingly enough, it is never necessary for srcu_barrier() to start a grace period because srcu_barrier() only enqueues a callback when a callback is already present--and it turns out that a grace period has to have already been started for this pre-existing callback. Furthermore, it is only the callback that srcu_barrier() needs to wait on, not any particular grace period. Therefore, a new rcu_segcblist_entrain() function enqueues the srcu_barrier() function's callback into the same segment occupied by the last pre-existing callback in the list. The special case where all the pre-existing callbacks are on a different list (because they are in the process of being invoked) is handled by enqueuing srcu_barrier()'s callback into the RCU_DONE_TAIL segment, relying on the done-callbacks check that takes place after all callbacks are inovked. Note that the readers use the same algorithm as before. Note that there is a separate srcu_idx that tells the readers what counter to increment. This unfortunately cannot be combined with srcu_gp_seq because they need to be incremented at different times. This commit introduces some ugly #ifdefs in rcutorture. These will go away when I feel good enough about Tree SRCU to ditch Classic SRCU. Some crude performance comparisons, courtesy of a quickly hacked rcuperf asynchronous-grace-period capability: Callback Queuing Overhead ------------------------- # CPUS Classic SRCU Tree SRCU ------ ------------ --------- 2 0.349 us 0.342 us 16 31.66 us 0.4 us 41 --------- 0.417 us The times are the 90th percentiles, a statistic that was chosen to reject the overheads of the occasional srcu_barrier() call needed to avoid OOMing the test machine. The rcuperf test hangs when running Classic SRCU at 41 CPUs, hence the line of dashes. Despite the hacks to both the rcuperf code and that statistics, this is a convincing demonstration of Tree SRCU's performance and scalability advantages.

| | | | * | | | | | srcu: Introduce CLASSIC_SRCU Kconfig optionPaul E. McKenney2017-04-184-153/+812
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The TREE_SRCU rewrite is large and a bit on the non-simple side, so this commit helps reduce risk by allowing the old v4.11 SRCU algorithm to be selected using a new CLASSIC_SRCU Kconfig option that depends on RCU_EXPERT. The default is to use the new TREE_SRCU and TINY_SRCU algorithms, in order to help get these the testing that they need. However, if your users do not require the update-side scalability that is to be provided by TREE_SRCU, select RCU_EXPERT and then CLASSIC_SRCU to revert back to the old classic SRCU algorithm.

| | | | * | | | | | srcu: Crude control of expedited grace periodsPaul E. McKenney2017-04-181-38/+46
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | SRCU's implementation of expedited grace periods has always assumed that the SRCU instance is idle when the expedited request arrives. This commit improves this a bit by maintaining a count of the number of outstanding expedited requests, thus allowing prior non-expedited grace periods accommodate these requests by shifting to expedited mode. However, any non-expedited wait already in progress will still wait for the full duration. Improved control of expedited grace periods is planned, but one step at a time. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

| | | | * | | | | | srcu: Merge ->srcu_state into ->srcu_gp_seqPaul E. McKenney2017-04-182-20/+45

This commit therefore creates a new rcu_seq_ctr() function that extracts the counter portion of the counter, and an rcu_seq_state() function that extracts the low-order state bit. This commit prepares for SRCU callback parallelization, which will require two state bits. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Note that users of SRCU still need to know the size of the srcu_struct structure, hence include/linux rather than kernel/rcu. This commit is code-movement only. Signed-off-by: Paul E.
