Commit 054aa8d439 ("fget: check that the fd still exists after getting
a ref to it") fixed a race with getting a reference to a file just as it
was being closed. It was a fairly minimal patch, and I didn't think
re-checking the file pointer lookup would be a measurable overhead,
since it was all right there and cached.
But I was wrong, as pointed out by the kernel test robot.
The 'poll2' case of the will-it-scale.per_thread_ops benchmark regressed
quite noticeably. Admittedly it seems to be a very artificial test:
doing "poll()" system calls on regular files in a very tight loop in
multiple threads.
That means that basically all the time is spent just looking up file
descriptors without ever doing anything useful with them (not that doing
'poll()' on a regular file is useful to begin with). And as a result it
shows the extra "re-check fd" cost as a sore thumb.
Happily, the regression is fixable by just writing the code to loook up
the fd to be better and clearer. There's still a cost to verify the
file pointer, but now it's basically in the noise even for that
benchmark that does nothing else - and the code is more understandable
and has better comments too.
[ Side note: this patch is also a classic case of one that looks very
messy with the default greedy Myers diff - it's much more legible with
either the patience of histogram diff algorithm ]

When the kernel is built with KASAN_GENERIC or KASAN_SW_TAGS, shadow
memory is allocated and mapped for all legitimate kernel addresses, and
prior to a regular memory access instrumentation will read from the
corresponding shadow address.
Due to the way memory addresses are converted to shadow addresses, bogus
pointers (e.g. NULL) can generate shadow addresses out of the bounds of
allocated shadow memory. For example, with KASAN_GENERIC and 48-bit VAs,
NULL would have a shadow address of dfff800000000000, which falls
between the TTBR ranges.
To make such cases easier to debug, this patch makes die_kernel_fault()
dump the real memory address range for any potential KASAN shadow access
using kasan_non_canonical_hook(), which results in fault information as
below when KASAN is enabled:
| Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address dfff800000000017
| KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x00000000000000b8-0x00000000000000bf]

If we take an unhandled fault from EL1, either:
a) The xFSC handler calls die_kernel_fault() directly. In this case,
die_kernel_fault() calls:
pr_alert(..., msg, addr);
mem_abort_decode(esr);
show_pte(addr);
die();
bust_spinlocks(0);
do_exit(SIGKILL);
b) The xFSC handler returns to do_mem_abort(), indicating failure. In
this case, do_mem_abort() calls:
pr_alert(..., addr);
mem_abort_decode(esr);
show_pte(addr);
arm64_notify_die() {
die();
}
This inconstency is unfortunatem, and in theory in case (b) registered
notifiers can prevent us from terminating the faulting thread by
returning NOTIFY_STOP, whereupon we'll end up returning from the fault,
replaying, and almost certainly get stuck in a livelock spewing errors
into dmesg. We don't expect notifers to fix things up, since we dump
state to dmesg before invoking them, so it would be more sensible to
consistently terminate the thread in this case.
This patch has do_mem_abort() call die_kernel_fault() for unhandled
faults taken from EL1. Where we would previously have logged a messafe
of the form:
| Unhandled fault at ${ADDR}
... we will now log a message of the form:
| Unable to handle kernel ${FAULT_NAME} at virtual address ${ADDR}
... and we will consistently terminate the thread from which the fault
was taken.

We currently have a 'laundrette' for closing cached files - a different
work-item for each network-namespace.
These 'laundrettes' (aka struct nfsd_fcache_disposal) are currently on a
list, and are freed using rcu.
The list is not necessary as we have a per-namespace structure (struct
nfsd_net) which can hold a link to the nfsd_fcache_disposal.
The use of kfree_rcu is also unnecessary as the cache is cleaned of all
files associated with a given namespace, and no new files can be added,
before the nfsd_fcache_disposal is freed.
So add a '->fcache_disposal' link to nfsd_net, and discard the list

On some Intel CPUs, the swab32 instruction is known to cause a CPU

the hash multiplication is done /before/ shifting to the high-order
bits of the result.
As a micro-optimization, remove the unnecessary transform from the

Currently 'pooled' services hold a reference on the pool_map, and
'unpooled' services do not.
svc_destroy() uses the presence of ->svo_function (via
svc_serv_is_pooled()) to determine if the reference should be dropped.
There is no direct correlation between being pooled and the use of
svo_function, though in practice, lockd is the only non-pooled service,
and the only one not to use svo_function.
This is untidy and would cause problems if we changed lockd to use
svc_set_num_threads(), which requires the use of ->svo_function.
So change the test for "is the service pooled" to "is sv_nrpools > 1".
This means that when svc_pool_map_get() returns 1, it must NOT take a
reference to the pool.
We discard svc_serv_is_pooled(), and test sv_nrpools directly.

lockd_start_svc() only needs to be called once, just after the svc is
created. If the start fails, the svc is discarded too.
It thus makes sense to call lockd_start_svc() from lockd_create_svc().
This allows us to remove the test against nlmsvc_rqst at the start of
lockd_start_svc() - it must always be NULL.
lockd_up() only held an extra reference on the svc until a thread was
created - then it dropped it. The thread - and thus the extra reference
- will remain until kthread_stop() is called.
Now that the thread is created in lockd_create_svc(), the extra
reference can be dropped there. So the 'serv' variable is no longer
needed in lockd_up().

nfsd cannot currently use svc_set_num_threads_sync. It instead
uses svc_set_num_threads which does *not* wait for threads to all
exit, and has a separate mechanism (nfsd_shutdown_complete) to wait
for completion.
The reason that nfsd is unlike other services is that nfsd threads can
exit separately from svc_set_num_threads being called - they die on
receipt of SIGKILL. Also, when the last thread exits, the service must
be shut down (sockets closed).
For this, the nfsd_mutex needs to be taken, and as that mutex needs to
be held while svc_set_num_threads is called, the one cannot wait for
the other.
This patch changes the nfsd thread so that it can drop the ref on the
service without blocking on nfsd_mutex, so that svc_set_num_threads_sync
can be used:
- if it can drop a non-last reference, it does that. This does not
trigger shutdown and does not require a mutex. This will likely
happen for all but the last thread signalled, and for all threads
being shut down by nfsd_shutdown_threads()
- if it can get the mutex without blocking (trylock), it does that
and then drops the reference. This will likely happen for the
last thread killed by SIGKILL
- Otherwise there might be an unrelated task holding the mutex,
possibly in another network namespace, or nfsd_shutdown_threads()
might be just about to get a reference on the service, after which
we can drop ours safely.
We cannot conveniently get wakeup notifications on these events,
and we are unlikely to need to, so we sleep briefly and check again.
With this we can discard nfsd_shutdown_complete and
nfsd_complete_shutdown(), and switch to svc_set_num_threads_sync.

The use of sv_nrthreads as a general refcount results in clumsy code, as
is seen by various comments needed to explain the situation.
This patch introduces a 'struct kref' and uses that for reference
counting, leaving sv_nrthreads to be a pure count of threads. The kref
is managed particularly in svc_get() and svc_put(), and also nfsd_put();
svc_destroy() now takes a pointer to the embedded kref, rather than to
the serv.
nfsd allows the svc_serv to exist with ->sv_nrhtreads being zero. This
happens when a transport is created before the first thread is started.
To support this, a 'keep_active' flag is introduced which holds a ref on
the svc_serv. This is set when any listening socket is successfully
added (unless there are running threads), and cleared when the number of
threads is set. So when the last thread exits, the nfs_serv will be
destroyed.
The use of 'keep_active' replaces previous code which checked if there
were any permanent sockets.
We no longer clear ->rq_server when nfsd() exits. This was done
to prevent svc_exit_thread() from calling svc_destroy().
Instead we take an extra reference to the svc_serv to prevent
svc_destroy() from being called.

svc_destroy() is poorly named - it doesn't necessarily destroy the svc,
it might just reduce the ref count.
nfsd_destroy() is poorly named for the same reason.
This patch:
- removes the refcount functionality from svc_destroy(), moving it to
a new svc_put(). Almost all previous callers of svc_destroy() now
call svc_put().
- renames nfsd_destroy() to nfsd_put() and improves the code, using
the new svc_destroy() rather than svc_put()
- removes a few comments that explain the important for balanced
get/put calls. This should be obvious.
The only non-trivial part of this is that svc_destroy() would call
svc_sock_update() on a non-final decrement. It can no longer do that,
and svc_put() isn't really a good place of it. This call is now made
from svc_exit_thread() which seems like a good place. This makes the
call *before* sv_nrthreads is decremented rather than after. This
is not particularly important as the call just sets a flag which
causes sv_nrthreads set be checked later. A subsequent patch will
improve the ordering.

The exit code of kernel threads has different semantics than the

Today the rules are a bit iffy and arbitrary about which kernel
threads have struct kthread present. Both idle threads and thread
started with create_kthread want struct kthread present so that is
effectively all kernel threads. Make the rule that if PF_KTHREAD
and the task is running then struct kthread is present.
This will allow the kernel thread code to using tsk->exit_code
with different semantics from ordinary processes.
To make ensure that struct kthread is present for all
kernel threads move it's allocation into copy_process.
Add a deallocation of struct kthread in exec for processes
that were kernel threads.
Move the allocation of struct kthread for the initial thread
earlier so that it is not repeated for each additional idle
thread.
Move the initialization of struct kthread into set_kthread_struct
so that the structure is always and reliably initailized.
Clear set_child_tid in free_kthread_struct to ensure the kthread
struct is reliably freed during exec. The function
free_kthread_struct does not need to clear vfork_done during exec as
exec_mm_release called from exec_mmap has already cleared vfork_done.

Update complete_and_exit to call kthread_exit instead of do_exit.
Change the name to reflect this change in functionality. All of the
users of complete_and_exit are causing the current kthread to exit so
this change makes it clear what is happening.
Move the implementation of kthread_complete_and_exit from
kernel/exit.c to to kernel/kthread.c. As this function is kthread
specific it makes most sense to live with the kthread functions.
There are no functional change.

The way the per task_struct exit_code is used by kernel threads is not
quite compatible how it is used by userspace applications. The low
byte of the userspace exit_code value encodes the exit signal. While
kthreads just use the value as an int holding ordinary kernel function
exit status like -EPERM.
Add kthread_exit to clearly separate the two kinds of uses.

When the kernel detects it is oops or otherwise force killing a task
while it exits the code poorly attempts to permanently stop the task
from scheduling.
I say poorly because it is possible for a task in TASK_UINTERRUPTIBLE
to be woken up.
As it makes no sense for the task to continue call do_task_dead
instead which actually does the work and permanently removes the task
from the scheduler. Guaranteeing the task will never be woken
up again.

The beginning of do_exit has become cluttered and difficult to read as
it is filled with checks to handle things that can only happen when
the kernel is operating improperly.
Now that we have a dedicated function for cleaning up a task when the
kernel is operating improperly move the checks there.

There are two big uses of do_exit. The first is it's design use to be
the guts of the exit(2) system call. The second use is to terminate
a task after something catastrophic has happened like a NULL pointer
in kernel code.
Add a function make_task_dead that is initialy exactly the same as
do_exit to cover the cases where do_exit is called to handle
catastrophic failure. In time this can probably be reduced to just a
light wrapper around do_task_dead. For now keep it exactly the same so
that there will be no behavioral differences introducing this new
concept.
Replace all of the uses of do_exit that use it for catastraphic
task cleanup with make_task_dead to make it clear what the code
is doing.
As part of this rename rewind_stack_do_exit
rewind_stack_and_make_dead.

My s390 assembly is not particularly good so I have read the history
of the reference to do_exit copy_thread and have been able to
verify that do_exit is not used.
The general argument is that s390 has been changed to use the generic
kernel_thread and kernel_execve and the generic versions do not call
do_exit. So it is strange to see a do_exit reference sitting there.
The history of the do_exit reference in s390's version of copy_thread
seems conclusive that the do_exit reference is something that lingers
and should have been removed several years ago.
Up through 8d19f15a60be ("[PATCH] s390 update (1/27): arch.") the
s390 code made a call to the exit(2) system call when a kernel thread
finished. Then kernel_thread_starter was added which branched
directly to the value in register 11 when the kernel thread finshed.
The value in register 11 was set in kernel_thread to
"regs.gprs[11] = (unsigned long) do_exit"
In commit 37fe5d41f6 ("s390: fold kernel_thread_helper() into
ret_from_fork()") kernel_thread_starter was moved into entry.S and
entry64.S unchanged (except for the syntax differences between inline
assemly and in the assembly file).
In commit f9a7e025df ("s390: switch to generic kernel_thread()") the
assignment to "gprs[11]" was moved into copy_thread from the old
kernel_thread. The helper kernel_thread_starter was still being used
and was still branching to "%r11" at the end.
In commit 30dcb0996e ("s390: switch to saner kernel_execve()
semantics") kernel_thread_starter was changed to unconditionally
branch to sysc_tracenogo instead to %r11 which held the value of
do_exit. Unfortunately copy_thread was not updated to stop passing
do_exit in "gprs[11]".
In commit 56e62a7370 ("s390: convert to generic entry")
kernel_thread_starter was replaced by __ret_from_fork. And the code
still continued to pass do_exit in "gprs[11]" despite __ret_from_fork
not caring in the slightest.
Remove this dead reference to do_exit to make it clear that s390 is
not doing anything with do_exit in copy_thread.
