* ftrace: allow architectures to specify ftrace compile optionsHeiko Carstens2015-01-291-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | If the kernel is compiled with function tracer support the -pg compile option is passed to gcc to generate extra code into the prologue of each function. This patch replaces the "open-coded" -pg compile flag with a CC_FLAGS_FTRACE makefile variable which architectures can override if a different option should be used for code generation.

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

* | mm/page_owner: keep track of page ownersJoonsoo Kim2014-12-131-0/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is the page owner tracking code which is introduced so far ago. It is resident on Andrew's tree, though, nobody tried to upstream so it remain as is. Our company uses this feature actively to debug memory leak or to find a memory hogger so I decide to upstream this feature. This functionality help us to know who allocates the page. When allocating a page, we store some information about allocation in extra memory. Later, if we need to know status of all pages, we can get and analyze it from this stored information. In previous version of this feature, extra memory is statically defined in struct page, but, in this version, extra memory is allocated outside of struct page. It enables us to turn on/off this feature at boottime without considerable memory waste. Although we already have tracepoint for tracing page allocation/free, using it to analyze page owner is rather complex. We need to enlarge the trace buffer for preventing overlapping until userspace program launched. And, launched program continually dump out the trace buffer for later analysis and it would change system behaviour with more possibility rather than just keeping it in memory, so bad for debug. Moreover, we can use page_owner feature further for various purposes. For example, we can use it for fragmentation statistics implemented in this patch. And, I also plan to implement some CMA failure debugging feature using this interface. I'd like to give the credit for all developers contributed this feature, but, it's not easy because I don't know exact history. Sorry about that.

While we think that these users are actually not much of concern, it has been requested to remove the arch_fast_hash() library bits that arose from [1] entirely as per recent discussion [2]. The main argument is that using it as a hash may introduce bias due to its linearity (see avalanche criterion) and thus makes it less clear (though we tried to document that) when this security/performance trade-off is actually acceptable for a general purpose library function. Lets therefore avoid any further confusion on this matter and remove it to prevent any future accidental misuse of it. For the time being, this is going to make hashing of flow keys a bit more expensive in the ovs case, but future work could reevaluate a different hashing discipline.

Commit e5a2c899 introduced an alternative_call, arch_fast_hash2, that selects between __jhash2 and __intel_crc4_2_hash based on the X86_FEATURE_XMM4_2. Unfortunately, the alternative_call system does not appear to be suitable for use with C functions, as register usage is not handled properly for the called functions. The __jhash2 function in particular clobbers registers that are not preserved when called via alternative_call, resulting in a panic for direct callers of arch_fast_hash2 on older CPUs lacking sse4_2. It is possible that __intel_crc4_2_hash works merely by chance because it uses fewer registers. This commit was suggested as the source of the problem by Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com>.

If during boot-up a CPU with SSE4.2 is detected they get updated to the CRC32 ones. This dispatching scheme incurs a function pointer lookup and indirect call for every hashing operation. rhashtable as a user of arch_fast_hash e.g. stores pointers to hashing functions in its structure, too, causing two indirect branches per hashing operation. Using alternative_call we can get away with one of those indirect branches.

This code solves the issue of performing stack dumps from NMI context. The issue is that printk() is not safe from NMI context as if the NMI were to trigger when a printk() was being performed, the NMI could deadlock from the printk() internal locks. This has been seen in practice. With lots of review from Petr Mladek, this code went through several iterations, and we feel that it is now at a point of quality to be accepted into mainline. Here's what is contained in this patch set: - Creates a "seq_buf" generic buffer utility that allows a descriptor to be passed around where functions can write their own "printk()" formatted strings into it. The generic version was pulled out of the trace_seq() code that was made specifically for tracing. - The seq_buf code was change to model the seq_file code. I have a patch (not included for 3.19) that converts the seq_file.c code over to use seq_buf.c like the trace_seq.c code does. This was done to make sure that seq_buf.c is compatible with seq_file.c. I may try to get that patch in for 3.20. - The seq_buf.c file was moved to lib/ to remove it from being dependent on CONFIG_TRACING. - The printk() was updated to allow for a per_cpu "override" of the internal calls. That is, instead of writing to the console, a call to printk() may do something else. This made it easier to allow the NMI to change what printk() does in order to call dump_stack() without needing to update that code as well. - Finally, the dump_stack from all CPUs via NMI code was converted to use the seq_buf code. The caller to trigger the NMI code would wait till all the NMIs finished, and then it would print the seq_buf data to the console safely from a non NMI context One added bonus is that this code also makes the NMI dump stack work on PREEMPT_RT kernels. As printk() includes sleeping locks on PREEMPT_RT, printk() only writes to console if the console does not use any rt_mutex converted spin locks.

Instead of having it be dependent on CONFIG_TRACING, move the code into lib/ and allow other users to have access to it even when tracing is not configured. The seq_buf utility is similar to the seq_file utility, but instead of writing sending data back up to userland, it writes it into a buffer defined at seq_buf_init(). This allows us to send a descriptor around that writes printf() formatted strings into it that can be retrieved later. It is currently used by the tracing facility for such things like trace events to convert its binary saved data in the ring buffer into an ASCII human readable context to be displayed in /sys/kernel/debug/trace. It can also be used for doing NMI prints safely from NMI context into the seq_buf and retrieved later and dumped to printk() safely. Doing printk() from an NMI context is dangerous because an NMI can preempt a current printk() and deadlock on it.

Some platforms may have early callers of the DMA-API, running prior to the fs_initcall() level, which is not much of an issue unless CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG is set. When the DMA-API debugging facilities are turned on a caller will go through: debug_dma_map_{single,page} -> dma_mapping_error (inline function usually) -> debug_dma_mapping_error -> get_hash_bucket Calling get_hash_bucket() returns a valid hash value since we hash on high bits of the dma_addr cookie, but we will grab an unitialized spinlock, which typically won't crash but produce a warning, the real crash will however happen during the bucket list traversal because the list has not been initialized yet. An obvious solution is of course to move some of the offenders to run after the fs_initcall level, but since this might not always be an option, we add a flag "dma_debug_initialized" which is set to false by default, and set to true once dma_debug_init() has had a chance to run. The dma_debug_disabled() helper function previously introduced just needs to check for dma_debug_initialized to allow the caller to proceed or not.

| | |/ / / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The CONFIG_RCU_CPU_STALL_VERBOSE Kconfig parameter causes preemptible RCU's CPU stall warnings to dump out any preempted tasks that are blocking the current RCU grace period. This information is useful, and the default has been CONFIG_RCU_CPU_STALL_VERBOSE=y for some years. It is therefore time for this commit to remove this Kconfig parameter, so that future kernel builds will always act as if CONFIG_RCU_CPU_STALL_VERBOSE=y. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

Add a helper memzero_explicit() (similarly as explicit_bzero() variants) that can be used in such cases where a variable with sensitive data is being cleared out in the end.
