userfaultfd: fix SIGBUS resulting from false rwsem wakeups With >=32 CPUs the userfaultfd selftest triggered a graceful but unexpected SIGBUS because VM_FAULT_RETRY was returned by handle_userfault() despite the UFFDIO_COPY wasn't completed. This seems caused by rwsem waking the thread blocked in handle_userfault() and we can't run up_read() before the wait_event sequence is complete. Keeping the wait_even sequence identical to the first one, would require running userfaultfd_must_wait() again to know if the loop should be repeated, and it would also require retaking the rwsem and revalidating the whole vma status. It seems simpler to wait the targeted wakeup so that if false wakeups materialize we still wait for our specific wakeup event, unless of course there are signals or the uffd was released. Debug code collecting the stack trace of the wakeup showed this: $ ./userfaultfd 100 99999 nr_pages: 25600, nr_pages_per_cpu: 800 bounces: 99998, mode: racing ver poll, userfaults: 32 35 90 232 30 138 69 82 34 30 139 40 40 31 20 19 43 13 15 28 27 38 21 43 56 22 1 17 31 8 4 2 bounces: 99997, mode: rnd ver poll, Bus error (core dumped) save_stack_trace+0x2b/0x50 try_to_wake_up+0x2a6/0x580 wake_up_q+0x32/0x70 rwsem_wake+0xe0/0x120 call_rwsem_wake+0x1b/0x30 up_write+0x3b/0x40 vm_mmap_pgoff+0x9c/0xc0 SyS_mmap_pgoff+0x1a9/0x240 SyS_mmap+0x22/0x30 entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x1f/0xbd 0xffffffffffffffff FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY missing 70 CPU: 24 PID: 1054 Comm: userfaultfd Tainted: G W 4.8.0+ #30 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS rel-1.9.3-0-ge2fc41e-prebuilt.qemu-project.org 04/01/2014 Call Trace: dump_stack+0xb8/0x112 handle_userfault+0x572/0x650 handle_mm_fault+0x12cb/0x1520 __do_page_fault+0x175/0x500 trace_do_page_fault+0x61/0x270 do_async_page_fault+0x19/0x90 async_page_fault+0x25/0x30 This always happens when the main userfault selftest thread is running clone() while glibc runs either mprotect or mmap (both taking mmap_sem down_write()) to allocate the thread stack of the background threads, while locking/userfault threads already run at full throttle and are susceptible to false wakeups that may cause handle_userfault() to return before than expected (which results in graceful SIGBUS at the next attempt).

sched/wait: Disambiguate wq_entry->task_list and wq_head->task_list naming So I've noticed a number of instances where it was not obvious from the code whether ->task_list was for a wait-queue head or a wait-queue entry. Furthermore, there's a number of wait-queue users where the lists are not for 'tasks' but other entities (poll tables, etc.), in which case the 'task_list' name is actively confusing. To clear this all up, name the wait-queue head and entry list structure fields unambiguously: struct wait_queue_head::task_list => ::head struct wait_queue_entry::task_list => ::entry For example, this code: rqw->wait.task_list.next != &wait->task_list ... is was pretty unclear (to me) what it's doing, while now it's written this way: rqw->wait.head.next != &wait->entry ... which makes it pretty clear that we are iterating a list until we see the head. Other examples are: list_for_each_entry_safe(pos, next, &x->task_list, task_list) { list_for_each_entry(wq, &fence->wait.task_list, task_list) { ... where it's unclear (to me) what we are iterating, and during review it's hard to tell whether it's trying to walk a wait-queue entry (which would be a bug), while now it's written as: list_for_each_entry_safe(pos, next, &x->head, entry) { list_for_each_entry(wq, &fence->wait.head, entry) { Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

userfaultfd: change the read API to return a uffd_msg I had requests to return the full address (not the page aligned one) to userland. It's not entirely clear how the page offset could be relevant because userfaults aren't like SIGBUS that can sigjump to a different place and it actually skip resolving the fault depending on a page offset. There's currently no real way to skip the fault especially because after a UFFDIO_COPY|ZEROPAGE, the fault is optimized to be retried within the kernel without having to return to userland first (not even self modifying code replacing the .text that touched the faulting address would prevent the fault to be repeated). Userland cannot skip repeating the fault even more so if the fault was triggered by a KVM secondary page fault or any get_user_pages or any copy-user inside some syscall which will return to kernel code. The second time FAULT_FLAG_RETRY_NOWAIT won't be set leading to a SIGBUS being raised because the userfault can't wait if it cannot release the mmap_map first (and FAULT_FLAG_RETRY_NOWAIT is required for that). Still returning userland a proper structure during the read() on the uffd, can allow to use the current UFFD_API for the future non-cooperative extensions too and it looks cleaner as well. Once we get additional fields there's no point to return the fault address page aligned anymore to reuse the bits below PAGE_SHIFT. The only downside is that the read() syscall will read 32bytes instead of 8bytes but that's not going to be measurable overhead. The total number of new events that can be extended or of new future bits for already shipped events, is limited to 64 by the features field of the uffdio_api structure. If more will be needed a bump of UFFD_API will be required.

userfaultfd: solve the race between UFFDIO_COPY|ZEROPAGE and read Solve in-kernel the race between UFFDIO_COPY|ZEROPAGE and userfaultfd_read if they are run on different threads simultaneously. Until now qemu solved the race in userland: the race was explicitly and intentionally left for userland to solve. However we can also solve it in kernel. Requiring all users to solve this race if they use two threads (one for the background transfer and one for the userfault reads) isn't very attractive from an API prospective, furthermore this allows to remove a whole bunch of mutex and bitmap code from qemu, making it faster. The cost of __get_user_pages_fast should be insignificant considering it scales perfectly and the pagetables are already hot in the CPU cache, compared to the overhead in userland to maintain those structures. Applying this patch is backwards compatible with respect to the userfaultfd userland API, however reverting this change wouldn't be backwards compatible anymore. Without this patch qemu in the background transfer thread, has to read the old state, and do UFFDIO_WAKE if old_state is missing but it become REQUESTED by the time it tries to set it to RECEIVED (signaling the other side received an userfault). vcpu background_thr userfault_thr ----- ----- ----- vcpu0 handle_mm_fault() postcopy_place_page read old_state -> MISSING UFFDIO_COPY 0x7fb76a139000 (no wakeup, still pending) vcpu0 fault at 0x7fb76a139000 enters handle_userfault poll() is kicked poll() -> POLLIN read() -> 0x7fb76a139000 postcopy_pmi_change_state(MISSING, REQUESTED) -> REQUESTED tmp_state = postcopy_pmi_change_state(old_state, RECEIVED) -> REQUESTED /* check that no userfault raced with UFFDIO_COPY */ if (old_state == MISSING && tmp_state == REQUESTED) UFFDIO_WAKE from background thread And a second case where a UFFDIO_WAKE would be needed is in the userfault thread: vcpu background_thr userfault_thr ----- ----- ----- vcpu0 handle_mm_fault() postcopy_place_page read old_state -> MISSING UFFDIO_COPY 0x7fb76a139000 (no wakeup, still pending) tmp_state = postcopy_pmi_change_state(old_state, RECEIVED) -> RECEIVED vcpu0 fault at 0x7fb76a139000 enters handle_userfault poll() is kicked poll() -> POLLIN read() -> 0x7fb76a139000 if (postcopy_pmi_change_state(MISSING, REQUESTED) == RECEIVED) UFFDIO_WAKE from userfault thread This patch removes the need of both UFFDIO_WAKE and of the associated per-page tristate as well.

userfaultfd: solve the race between UFFDIO_COPY|ZEROPAGE and read Solve in-kernel the race between UFFDIO_COPY|ZEROPAGE and userfaultfd_read if they are run on different threads simultaneously. Until now qemu solved the race in userland: the race was explicitly and intentionally left for userland to solve. However we can also solve it in kernel. Requiring all users to solve this race if they use two threads (one for the background transfer and one for the userfault reads) isn't very attractive from an API prospective, furthermore this allows to remove a whole bunch of mutex and bitmap code from qemu, making it faster. The cost of __get_user_pages_fast should be insignificant considering it scales perfectly and the pagetables are already hot in the CPU cache, compared to the overhead in userland to maintain those structures. Applying this patch is backwards compatible with respect to the userfaultfd userland API, however reverting this change wouldn't be backwards compatible anymore. Without this patch qemu in the background transfer thread, has to read the old state, and do UFFDIO_WAKE if old_state is missing but it become REQUESTED by the time it tries to set it to RECEIVED (signaling the other side received an userfault). vcpu background_thr userfault_thr ----- ----- ----- vcpu0 handle_mm_fault() postcopy_place_page read old_state -> MISSING UFFDIO_COPY 0x7fb76a139000 (no wakeup, still pending) vcpu0 fault at 0x7fb76a139000 enters handle_userfault poll() is kicked poll() -> POLLIN read() -> 0x7fb76a139000 postcopy_pmi_change_state(MISSING, REQUESTED) -> REQUESTED tmp_state = postcopy_pmi_change_state(old_state, RECEIVED) -> REQUESTED /* check that no userfault raced with UFFDIO_COPY */ if (old_state == MISSING && tmp_state == REQUESTED) UFFDIO_WAKE from background thread And a second case where a UFFDIO_WAKE would be needed is in the userfault thread: vcpu background_thr userfault_thr ----- ----- ----- vcpu0 handle_mm_fault() postcopy_place_page read old_state -> MISSING UFFDIO_COPY 0x7fb76a139000 (no wakeup, still pending) tmp_state = postcopy_pmi_change_state(old_state, RECEIVED) -> RECEIVED vcpu0 fault at 0x7fb76a139000 enters handle_userfault poll() is kicked poll() -> POLLIN read() -> 0x7fb76a139000 if (postcopy_pmi_change_state(MISSING, REQUESTED) == RECEIVED) UFFDIO_WAKE from userfault thread This patch removes the need of both UFFDIO_WAKE and of the associated per-page tristate as well.

userfaultfd: wake pending userfaults This is an optimization but it's a userland visible one and it affects the API. The downside of this optimization is that if you call poll() and you get POLLIN, read(ufd) may still return -EAGAIN. The blocked userfault may be waken by a different thread, before read(ufd) comes around. This in short means that poll() isn't really usable if the userfaultfd is opened in blocking mode. userfaults won't wait in "pending" state to be read anymore and any UFFDIO_WAKE or similar operations that has the objective of waking userfaults after their resolution, will wake all blocked userfaults for the resolved range, including those that haven't been read() by userland yet. The behavior of poll() becomes not standard, but this obviates the need of "spurious" UFFDIO_WAKE and it lets the userland threads to restart immediately without requiring an UFFDIO_WAKE. This is even more significant in case of repeated faults on the same address from multiple threads. This optimization is justified by the measurement that the number of spurious UFFDIO_WAKE accounts for 5% and 10% of the total userfaults for heavy workloads, so it's worth optimizing those away.

userfaultfd: fix SIGBUS resulting from false rwsem wakeups With >=32 CPUs the userfaultfd selftest triggered a graceful but unexpected SIGBUS because VM_FAULT_RETRY was returned by handle_userfault() despite the UFFDIO_COPY wasn't completed. This seems caused by rwsem waking the thread blocked in handle_userfault() and we can't run up_read() before the wait_event sequence is complete. Keeping the wait_even sequence identical to the first one, would require running userfaultfd_must_wait() again to know if the loop should be repeated, and it would also require retaking the rwsem and revalidating the whole vma status. It seems simpler to wait the targeted wakeup so that if false wakeups materialize we still wait for our specific wakeup event, unless of course there are signals or the uffd was released. Debug code collecting the stack trace of the wakeup showed this: $ ./userfaultfd 100 99999 nr_pages: 25600, nr_pages_per_cpu: 800 bounces: 99998, mode: racing ver poll, userfaults: 32 35 90 232 30 138 69 82 34 30 139 40 40 31 20 19 43 13 15 28 27 38 21 43 56 22 1 17 31 8 4 2 bounces: 99997, mode: rnd ver poll, Bus error (core dumped) save_stack_trace+0x2b/0x50 try_to_wake_up+0x2a6/0x580 wake_up_q+0x32/0x70 rwsem_wake+0xe0/0x120 call_rwsem_wake+0x1b/0x30 up_write+0x3b/0x40 vm_mmap_pgoff+0x9c/0xc0 SyS_mmap_pgoff+0x1a9/0x240 SyS_mmap+0x22/0x30 entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x1f/0xbd 0xffffffffffffffff FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY missing 70 CPU: 24 PID: 1054 Comm: userfaultfd Tainted: G W 4.8.0+ #30 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS rel-1.9.3-0-ge2fc41e-prebuilt.qemu-project.org 04/01/2014 Call Trace: dump_stack+0xb8/0x112 handle_userfault+0x572/0x650 handle_mm_fault+0x12cb/0x1520 __do_page_fault+0x175/0x500 trace_do_page_fault+0x61/0x270 do_async_page_fault+0x19/0x90 async_page_fault+0x25/0x30 This always happens when the main userfault selftest thread is running clone() while glibc runs either mprotect or mmap (both taking mmap_sem down_write()) to allocate the thread stack of the background threads, while locking/userfault threads already run at full throttle and are susceptible to false wakeups that may cause handle_userfault() to return before than expected (which results in graceful SIGBUS at the next attempt). This was reproduced only with >=32 CPUs because the loop to start the thread where clone() is too quick with fewer CPUs, while with 32 CPUs there's already significant activity on ~32 locking and userfault threads when the last background threads are started with clone(). This >=32 CPUs SMP race condition is likely reproducible only with the selftest because of the much heavier userfault load it generates if compared to real apps. We'll have to allow "one more" VM_FAULT_RETRY for the WP support and a patch floating around that provides it also hidden this problem but in reality only is successfully at hiding the problem. False wakeups could still happen again the second time handle_userfault() is invoked, even if it's a so rare race condition that getting false wakeups twice in a row is impossible to reproduce. This full fix is needed for correctness, the only alternative would be to allow VM_FAULT_RETRY to be returned infinitely. With this fix the WP support can stick to a strict "one more" VM_FAULT_RETRY logic (no need of returning it infinite times to avoid the SIGBUS).

mm: userfaultfd: add feature to request for a signal delivery In some cases, userfaultfd mechanism should just deliver a SIGBUS signal to the faulting process, instead of the page-fault event. Dealing with page-fault event using a monitor thread can be an overhead in these cases. For example applications like the database could use the signaling mechanism for robustness purpose. Database uses hugetlbfs for performance reason. Files on hugetlbfs filesystem are created and huge pages allocated using fallocate() API. Pages are deallocated/freed using fallocate() hole punching support. These files are mmapped and accessed by many processes as shared memory. The database keeps track of which offsets in the hugetlbfs file have pages allocated. Any access to mapped address over holes in the file, which can occur due to bugs in the application, is considered invalid and expect the process to simply receive a SIGBUS. However, currently when a hole in the file is accessed via the mapped address, kernel/mm attempts to automatically allocate a page at page fault time, resulting in implicitly filling the hole in the file. This may not be the desired behavior for applications like the database that want to explicitly manage page allocations of hugetlbfs files. Using userfaultfd mechanism with this support to get a signal, database application can prevent pages from being allocated implicitly when processes access mapped address over holes in the file. This patch adds UFFD_FEATURE_SIGBUS feature to userfaultfd mechnism to request for a SIGBUS signal. See following for previous discussion about the database requirement leading to this proposal as suggested by Andrea. http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg129224.html Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1501552446-748335-2-git-send-email-prakash.sangappa@oracle.com Signed-off-by: Prakash Sangappa <prakash.sangappa@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: Mike Rapoport <rppt@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@redhat.com> Cc: Mike Kravetz <mike.kravetz@oracle.com> Cc: Shuah Khan <shuah@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

locking/atomics: COCCINELLE/treewide: Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() patterns to READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() Please do not apply this to mainline directly, instead please re-run the coccinelle script shown below and apply its output. For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't harmful, and changing them results in churn. However, for some features, the read/write distinction is critical to correct operation. To distinguish these cases, separate read/write accessors must be used. This patch migrates (most) remaining ACCESS_ONCE() instances to {READ,WRITE}_ONCE(), using the following coccinelle script: ---- // Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() uses to equivalent READ_ONCE() and // WRITE_ONCE() // $ make coccicheck COCCI=/home/mark/once.cocci SPFLAGS="--include-headers" MODE=patch virtual patch @ depends on patch @ expression E1, E2; @@ - ACCESS_ONCE(E1) = E2 + WRITE_ONCE(E1, E2) @ depends on patch @ expression E; @@ - ACCESS_ONCE(E) + READ_ONCE(E) ---- Signed-off-by: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

This is even more significant in case of repeated faults on the same address from multiple threads. This optimization is justified by the measurement that the number of spurious UFFDIO_WAKE accounts for 5% and 10% of the total userfaults for heavy workloads, so it's worth optimizing those away.

userfaultfd: fix SIGBUS resulting from false rwsem wakeups With >=32 CPUs the userfaultfd selftest triggered a graceful but unexpected SIGBUS because VM_FAULT_RETRY was returned by handle_userfault() despite the UFFDIO_COPY wasn't completed. This seems caused by rwsem waking the thread blocked in handle_userfault() and we can't run up_read() before the wait_event sequence is complete. Keeping the wait_even sequence identical to the first one, would require running userfaultfd_must_wait() again to know if the loop should be repeated, and it would also require retaking the rwsem and revalidating the whole vma status. It seems simpler to wait the targeted wakeup so that if false wakeups materialize we still wait for our specific wakeup event, unless of course there are signals or the uffd was released.

mm/hugetlb: add size parameter to huge_pte_offset() A poisoned or migrated hugepage is stored as a swap entry in the page tables. On architectures that support hugepages consisting of contiguous page table entries (such as on arm64) this leads to ambiguity in determining the page table entry to return in huge_pte_offset() when a poisoned entry is encountered. Let's remove the ambiguity by adding a size parameter to convey additional information about the requested address. Also fixup the definition/usage of huge_pte_offset() throughout the tree.

userfaultfd: solve the race between UFFDIO_COPY|ZEROPAGE and read Solve in-kernel the race between UFFDIO_COPY|ZEROPAGE and userfaultfd_read if they are run on different threads simultaneously. Until now qemu solved the race in userland: the race was explicitly and intentionally left for userland to solve. However we can also solve it in kernel. Requiring all users to solve this race if they use two threads (one for the background transfer and one for the userfault reads) isn't very attractive from an API prospective, furthermore this allows to remove a whole bunch of mutex and bitmap code from qemu, making it faster. The cost of __get_user_pages_fast should be insignificant considering it scales perfectly and the pagetables are already hot in the CPU cache, compared to the overhead in userland to maintain those structures. Applying this patch is backwards compatible with respect to the userfaultfd userland API, however reverting this change wouldn't be backwards compatible anymore. Without this patch qemu in the background transfer thread, has to read the old state, and do UFFDIO_WAKE if old_state is missing but it become REQUESTED by the time it tries to set it to RECEIVED (signaling the other side received an userfault). vcpu background_thr userfault_thr ----- ----- ----- vcpu0 handle_mm_fault() postcopy_place_page read old_state -> MISSING UFFDIO_COPY 0x7fb76a139000 (no wakeup, still pending) vcpu0 fault at 0x7fb76a139000 enters handle_userfault poll() is kicked poll() -> POLLIN read() -> 0x7fb76a139000 postcopy_pmi_change_state(MISSING, REQUESTED) -> REQUESTED tmp_state = postcopy_pmi_change_state(old_state, RECEIVED) -> REQUESTED /* check that no userfault raced with UFFDIO_COPY */ if (old_state == MISSING && tmp_state == REQUESTED) UFFDIO_WAKE from background thread And a second case where a UFFDIO_WAKE would be needed is in the userfault thread: vcpu background_thr userfault_thr ----- ----- ----- vcpu0 handle_mm_fault() postcopy_place_page read old_state -> MISSING UFFDIO_COPY 0x7fb76a139000 (no wakeup, still pending) tmp_state = postcopy_pmi_change_state(old_state, RECEIVED) -> RECEIVED vcpu0 fault at 0x7fb76a139000 enters handle_userfault poll() is kicked poll() -> POLLIN read() -> 0x7fb76a139000 if (postcopy_pmi_change_state(MISSING, REQUESTED) == RECEIVED) UFFDIO_WAKE from userfault thread This patch removes the need of both UFFDIO_WAKE and of the associated per-page tristate as well.

locking/atomics: COCCINELLE/treewide: Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() patterns to READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() Please do not apply this to mainline directly, instead please re-run the coccinelle script shown below and apply its output. For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't harmful, and changing them results in churn. However, for some features, the read/write distinction is critical to correct operation. To distinguish these cases, separate read/write accessors must be used. This patch migrates (most) remaining ACCESS_ONCE() instances to {READ,WRITE}_ONCE(), using the following coccinelle script: ---- // Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() uses to equivalent READ_ONCE() and // WRITE_ONCE() // $ make coccicheck COCCI=/home/mark/once.cocci SPFLAGS="--include-headers" MODE=patch virtual patch @ depends on patch @ expression E1, E2; @@ - ACCESS_ONCE(E1) = E2 + WRITE_ONCE(E1, E2) @ depends on patch @ expression E; @@ - ACCESS_ONCE(E) + READ_ONCE(E) ---- Signed-off-by: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

userfaultfd: wake pending userfaults This is an optimization but it's a userland visible one and it affects the API. The downside of this optimization is that if you call poll() and you get POLLIN, read(ufd) may still return -EAGAIN. The blocked userfault may be waken by a different thread, before read(ufd) comes around. This in short means that poll() isn't really usable if the userfaultfd is opened in blocking mode. userfaults won't wait in "pending" state to be read anymore and any UFFDIO_WAKE or similar operations that has the objective of waking userfaults after their resolution, will wake all blocked userfaults for the resolved range, including those that haven't been read() by userland yet. The behavior of poll() becomes not standard, but this obviates the need of "spurious" UFFDIO_WAKE and it lets the userland threads to restart immediately without requiring an UFFDIO_WAKE. This is even more significant in case of repeated faults on the same address from multiple threads. This optimization is justified by the measurement that the number of spurious UFFDIO_WAKE accounts for 5% and 10% of the total userfaults for heavy workloads, so it's worth optimizing those away.

userfaultfd: fix SIGBUS resulting from false rwsem wakeups With >=32 CPUs the userfaultfd selftest triggered a graceful but unexpected SIGBUS because VM_FAULT_RETRY was returned by handle_userfault() despite the UFFDIO_COPY wasn't completed. This seems caused by rwsem waking the thread blocked in handle_userfault() and we can't run up_read() before the wait_event sequence is complete. Keeping the wait_even sequence identical to the first one, would require running userfaultfd_must_wait() again to know if the loop should be repeated, and it would also require retaking the rwsem and revalidating the whole vma status. It seems simpler to wait the targeted wakeup so that if false wakeups materialize we still wait for our specific wakeup event, unless of course there are signals or the uffd was released. Debug code collecting the stack trace of the wakeup showed this: $ ./userfaultfd 100 99999 nr_pages: 25600, nr_pages_per_cpu: 800 bounces: 99998, mode: racing ver poll, userfaults: 32 35 90 232 30 138 69 82 34 30 139 40 40 31 20 19 43 13 15 28 27 38 21 43 56 22 1 17 31 8 4 2 bounces: 99997, mode: rnd ver poll, Bus error (core dumped) save_stack_trace+0x2b/0x50 try_to_wake_up+0x2a6/0x580 wake_up_q+0x32/0x70 rwsem_wake+0xe0/0x120 call_rwsem_wake+0x1b/0x30 up_write+0x3b/0x40 vm_mmap_pgoff+0x9c/0xc0 SyS_mmap_pgoff+0x1a9/0x240 SyS_mmap+0x22/0x30 entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x1f/0xbd 0xffffffffffffffff FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY missing 70 CPU: 24 PID: 1054 Comm: userfaultfd Tainted: G W 4.8.0+ #30 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS rel-1.9.3-0-ge2fc41e-prebuilt.qemu-project.org 04/01/2014 Call Trace: dump_stack+0xb8/0x112 handle_userfault+0x572/0x650 handle_mm_fault+0x12cb/0x1520 __do_page_fault+0x175/0x500 trace_do_page_fault+0x61/0x270 do_async_page_fault+0x19/0x90 async_page_fault+0x25/0x30 This always happens when the main userfault selftest thread is running clone() while glibc runs either mprotect or mmap (both taking mmap_sem down_write()) to allocate the thread stack of the background threads, while locking/userfault threads already run at full throttle and are susceptible to false wakeups that may cause handle_userfault() to return before than expected (which results in graceful SIGBUS at the next attempt). This was reproduced only with >=32 CPUs because the loop to start the thread where clone() is too quick with fewer CPUs, while with 32 CPUs there's already significant activity on ~32 locking and userfault threads when the last background threads are started with clone(). This >=32 CPUs SMP race condition is likely reproducible only with the selftest because of the much heavier userfault load it generates if compared to real apps. We'll have to allow "one more" VM_FAULT_RETRY for the WP support and a patch floating around that provides it also hidden this problem but in reality only is successfully at hiding the problem. False wakeups could still happen again the second time handle_userfault() is invoked, even if it's a so rare race condition that getting false wakeups twice in a row is impossible to reproduce. This full fix is needed for correctness, the only alternative would be to allow VM_FAULT_RETRY to be returned infinitely. With this fix the WP support can stick to a strict "one more" VM_FAULT_RETRY logic (no need of returning it infinite times to avoid the SIGBUS).

userfaultfd: wake pending userfaults This is an optimization but it's a userland visible one and it affects the API. The downside of this optimization is that if you call poll() and you get POLLIN, read(ufd) may still return -EAGAIN. The blocked userfault may be waken by a different thread, before read(ufd) comes around. This in short means that poll() isn't really usable if the userfaultfd is opened in blocking mode. userfaults won't wait in "pending" state to be read anymore and any UFFDIO_WAKE or similar operations that has the objective of waking userfaults after their resolution, will wake all blocked userfaults for the resolved range, including those that haven't been read() by userland yet. The behavior of poll() becomes not standard, but this obviates the need of "spurious" UFFDIO_WAKE and it lets the userland threads to restart immediately without requiring an UFFDIO_WAKE. This is even more significant in case of repeated faults on the same address from multiple threads. This optimization is justified by the measurement that the number of spurious UFFDIO_WAKE accounts for 5% and 10% of the total userfaults for heavy workloads, so it's worth optimizing those away.

userfaultfd: non-cooperative: fix fork use after free When reading the event from the uffd, we put it on a temporary fork_event list to detect if we can still access it after releasing and retaking the event_wqh.lock. If fork aborts and removes the event from the fork_event all is fine as long as we're still in the userfault read context and fork_event head is still alive. We've to put the event allocated in the fork kernel stack, back from fork_event list-head to the event_wqh head, before returning from userfaultfd_ctx_read, because the fork_event head lifetime is limited to the userfaultfd_ctx_read stack lifetime. Forgetting to move the event back to its event_wqh place then results in __remove_wait_queue(&ctx->event_wqh, &ewq->wq); in userfaultfd_event_wait_completion to remove it from a head that has been already freed from the reader stack. This could only happen if resolve_userfault_fork failed (for example if there are no file descriptors available to allocate the fork uffd). If it succeeded it was put back correctly. Furthermore, after find_userfault_evt receives a fork event, the forked userfault context in fork_nctx and uwq->msg.arg.reserved.reserved1 can be released by the fork thread as soon as the event_wqh.lock is released. Taking a reference on the fork_nctx before dropping the lock prevents an use after free in resolve_userfault_fork(). If the fork side aborted and it already released everything, we still try to succeed resolve_userfault_fork(), if possible.

userfaultfd: change the read API to return a uffd_msg I had requests to return the full address (not the page aligned one) to userland. It's not entirely clear how the page offset could be relevant because userfaults aren't like SIGBUS that can sigjump to a different place and it actually skip resolving the fault depending on a page offset. There's currently no real way to skip the fault especially because after a UFFDIO_COPY|ZEROPAGE, the fault is optimized to be retried within the kernel without having to return to userland first (not even self modifying code replacing the .text that touched the faulting address would prevent the fault to be repeated). Userland cannot skip repeating the fault even more so if the fault was triggered by a KVM secondary page fault or any get_user_pages or any copy-user inside some syscall which will return to kernel code. The second time FAULT_FLAG_RETRY_NOWAIT won't be set leading to a SIGBUS being raised because the userfault can't wait if it cannot release the mmap_map first (and FAULT_FLAG_RETRY_NOWAIT is required for that). Still returning userland a proper structure during the read() on the uffd, can allow to use the current UFFD_API for the future non-cooperative extensions too and it looks cleaner as well. Once we get additional fields there's no point to return the fault address page aligned anymore to reuse the bits below PAGE_SHIFT. The only downside is that the read() syscall will read 32bytes instead of 8bytes but that's not going to be measurable overhead. The total number of new events that can be extended or of new future bits for already shipped events, is limited to 64 by the features field of the uffdio_api structure. If more will be needed a bump of UFFD_API will be required.

userfaultfd: change the read API to return a uffd_msg I had requests to return the full address (not the page aligned one) to userland. It's not entirely clear how the page offset could be relevant because userfaults aren't like SIGBUS that can sigjump to a different place and it actually skip resolving the fault depending on a page offset. There's currently no real way to skip the fault especially because after a UFFDIO_COPY|ZEROPAGE, the fault is optimized to be retried within the kernel without having to return to userland first (not even self modifying code replacing the .text that touched the faulting address would prevent the fault to be repeated). Userland cannot skip repeating the fault even more so if the fault was triggered by a KVM secondary page fault or any get_user_pages or any copy-user inside some syscall which will return to kernel code. The second time FAULT_FLAG_RETRY_NOWAIT won't be set leading to a SIGBUS being raised because the userfault can't wait if it cannot release the mmap_map first (and FAULT_FLAG_RETRY_NOWAIT is required for that). Still returning userland a proper structure during the read() on the uffd, can allow to use the current UFFD_API for the future non-cooperative extensions too and it looks cleaner as well. Once we get additional fields there's no point to return the fault address page aligned anymore to reuse the bits below PAGE_SHIFT. The only downside is that the read() syscall will read 32bytes instead of 8bytes but that's not going to be measurable overhead. The total number of new events that can be extended or of new future bits for already shipped events, is limited to 64 by the features field of the uffdio_api structure. If more will be needed a bump of UFFD_API will be required.

userfaultfd: non-cooperative: fix fork use after free When reading the event from the uffd, we put it on a temporary fork_event list to detect if we can still access it after releasing and retaking the event_wqh.lock. If fork aborts and removes the event from the fork_event all is fine as long as we're still in the userfault read context and fork_event head is still alive. We've to put the event allocated in the fork kernel stack, back from fork_event list-head to the event_wqh head, before returning from userfaultfd_ctx_read, because the fork_event head lifetime is limited to the userfaultfd_ctx_read stack lifetime. Forgetting to move the event back to its event_wqh place then results in __remove_wait_queue(&ctx->event_wqh, &ewq->wq); in userfaultfd_event_wait_completion to remove it from a head that has been already freed from the reader stack. This could only happen if resolve_userfault_fork failed (for example if there are no file descriptors available to allocate the fork uffd). If it succeeded it was put back correctly. Furthermore, after find_userfault_evt receives a fork event, the forked userfault context in fork_nctx and uwq->msg.arg.reserved.reserved1 can be released by the fork thread as soon as the event_wqh.lock is released. Taking a reference on the fork_nctx before dropping the lock prevents an use after free in resolve_userfault_fork().

Still returning userland a proper structure during the read() on the uffd, can allow to use the current UFFD_API for the future non-cooperative extensions too and it looks cleaner as well. Once we get additional fields there's no point to return the fault address page aligned anymore to reuse the bits below PAGE_SHIFT. The only downside is that the read() syscall will read 32bytes instead of 8bytes but that's not going to be measurable overhead. The total number of new events that can be extended or of new future bits for already shipped events, is limited to 64 by the features field of the uffdio_api structure. If more will be needed a bump of UFFD_API will be required.

userfaultfd: change the read API to return a uffd_msg I had requests to return the full address (not the page aligned one) to userland. It's not entirely clear how the page offset could be relevant because userfaults aren't like SIGBUS that can sigjump to a different place and it actually skip resolving the fault depending on a page offset. There's currently no real way to skip the fault especially because after a UFFDIO_COPY|ZEROPAGE, the fault is optimized to be retried within the kernel without having to return to userland first (not even self modifying code replacing the .text that touched the faulting address would prevent the fault to be repeated). Userland cannot skip repeating the fault even more so if the fault was triggered by a KVM secondary page fault or any get_user_pages or any copy-user inside some syscall which will return to kernel code. The second time FAULT_FLAG_RETRY_NOWAIT won't be set leading to a SIGBUS being raised because the userfault can't wait if it cannot release the mmap_map first (and FAULT_FLAG_RETRY_NOWAIT is required for that).

userfaultfd: wake pending userfaults This is an optimization but it's a userland visible one and it affects the API. The downside of this optimization is that if you call poll() and you get POLLIN, read(ufd) may still return -EAGAIN. The blocked userfault may be waken by a different thread, before read(ufd) comes around. This in short means that poll() isn't really usable if the userfaultfd is opened in blocking mode. userfaults won't wait in "pending" state to be read anymore and any UFFDIO_WAKE or similar operations that has the objective of waking userfaults after their resolution, will wake all blocked userfaults for the resolved range, including those that haven't been read() by userland yet. The behavior of poll() becomes not standard, but this obviates the need of "spurious" UFFDIO_WAKE and it lets the userland threads to restart immediately without requiring an UFFDIO_WAKE. This is even more significant in case of repeated faults on the same address from multiple threads. This optimization is justified by the measurement that the number of spurious UFFDIO_WAKE accounts for 5% and 10% of the total userfaults for heavy workloads, so it's worth optimizing those away.

sched/wait: Disambiguate wq_entry->task_list and wq_head->task_list naming So I've noticed a number of instances where it was not obvious from the code whether ->task_list was for a wait-queue head or a wait-queue entry. Furthermore, there's a number of wait-queue users where the lists are not for 'tasks' but other entities (poll tables, etc.), in which case the 'task_list' name is actively confusing. To clear this all up, name the wait-queue head and entry list structure fields unambiguously: struct wait_queue_head::task_list => ::head struct wait_queue_entry::task_list => ::entry For example, this code: rqw->wait.task_list.next != &wait->task_list ... is was pretty unclear (to me) what it's doing, while now it's written this way: rqw->wait.head.next != &wait->entry ... which makes it pretty clear that we are iterating a list until we see the head. Other examples are: list_for_each_entry_safe(pos, next, &x->task_list, task_list) { list_for_each_entry(wq, &fence->wait.task_list, task_list) { ... where it's unclear (to me) what we are iterating, and during review it's hard to tell whether it's trying to walk a wait-queue entry (which would be a bug), while now it's written as: list_for_each_entry_safe(pos, next, &x->head, entry) { list_for_each_entry(wq, &fence->wait.head, entry) { Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
