2016-01-20Do not enable CONFIG_IO_STRICT_DEVMEM by defaultDan Williams1-1/+0
Larry Finger reports: "My PowerBook G4 Aluminum with a 32-bit PPC processor fails to boot for the 4.4-git series". This is likely due to X still needing /dev/mem access on this platform. CONFIG_IO_STRICT_DEVMEM is not yet safe to turn on when CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM=y. Remove the default so that old configurations do not change behavior.

2016-01-20UBSAN: run-time undefined behavior sanity checkerAndrey Ryabinin1-0/+2
UBSAN uses compile-time instrumentation to catch undefined behavior (UB). Compiler inserts code that perform certain kinds of checks before operations that could cause UB. If check fails (i.e. UB detected) __ubsan_handle_* function called to print error message. So the most of the work is done by compiler. This patch just implements ubsan handlers printing errors. GCC has this capability since 4.9.x [1] (see -fsanitize=undefined option and its suboptions). However GCC 5.x has more checkers implemented [2]. Article [3] has a bit more details about UBSAN in the GCC.

2016-01-16Kconfig: remove HAVE_LATENCYTOP_SUPPORTWill Deacon1-1/+0
As illustrated by commit a3afe70b83fd ("[S390] latencytop s390 support."), HAVE_LATENCYTOP_SUPPORT is defined by an architecture to advertise an implementation of save_stack_trace_tsk. However, as of 9212ddb5eada ("stacktrace: provide save_stack_trace_tsk() weak alias") a dummy implementation is provided if STACKTRACE=y. Given that LATENCYTOP already depends on STACKTRACE_SUPPORT and selects STACKTRACE, we can remove HAVE_LATENCYTOP_SUPPORT altogether.

2016-01-15page-flags: introduce page flags policies wrt compound pagesKirill A. Shutemov1-0/+8
This patch adds a third argument to macros which create function definitions for page flags. This argument defines how page-flags helpers behave on compound functions. For now we define four policies: - PF_ANY: the helper function operates on the page it gets, regardless if it's non-compound, head or tail. - PF_HEAD: the helper function operates on the head page of the compound page if it gets tail page. - PF_NO_TAIL: only head and non-compond pages are acceptable for this helper function. - PF_NO_COMPOUND: only non-compound pages are acceptable for this helper function. For now we use policy PF_ANY for all helpers, which matches current behaviour. We do not enforce the policy for TESTPAGEFLAG, because we have flags checked for random pages all over the kernel. Noticeable exception to this is PageTransHuge() which triggers VM_BUG_ON() for tail page. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams: "The bulk of this has appeared in -next and independently received a build success notification from the kbuild robot. The 'for-4.5/block- dax' topic branch was rebased over the weekend to drop the "block device end-of-life" rework that Al would like to see re-implemented with a notifier, and to address bug reports against the badblocks integration. There is pending feedback against "libnvdimm: Add a poison list and export badblocks" received last week. Linda identified some localized fixups that we will handle incrementally. Summary: - Media error handling: The 'badblocks' implementation that originated in md-raid is up-levelled to a generic capability of a block device. This initial implementation is limited to being consulted in the pmem block-i/o path. Later, 'badblocks' will be consulted when creating dax mappings. - Raw block device dax: For virtualization and other cases that want large contiguous mappings of persistent memory, add the capability to dax-mmap a block device directly. - Increased /dev/mem restrictions: Add an option to treat all io-memory as IORESOURCE_EXCLUSIVE, i.e. disable /dev/mem access while a driver is actively using an address range. This behavior is controlled via the new CONFIG_IO_STRICT_DEVMEM option and can be overridden by the existing "iomem=relaxed" kernel command line option. - Miscellaneous fixes include a 'pfn'-device huge page alignment fix, block device shutdown crash fix, and other small libnvdimm fixes" * tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: (32 commits) block: kill disk_{check|set|clear|alloc}_badblocks libnvdimm, pmem: nvdimm_read_bytes() badblocks support pmem, dax: disable dax in the presence of bad blocks pmem: fail io-requests to known bad blocks libnvdimm: convert to statically allocated badblocks libnvdimm: don't fail init for full badblocks list block, badblocks: introduce devm_init_badblocks block: clarify badblocks lifetime badblocks: rename badblocks_free to badblocks_exit libnvdimm, pmem: move definition of nvdimm_namespace_add_poison to nd.h libnvdimm: Add a poison list and export badblocks nfit_test: Enable DSMs for all test NFITs md: convert to use the generic badblocks code block: Add badblock management for gendisks badblocks: Add core badblock management code block: fix del_gendisk() vs blkdev_ioctl crash block: enable dax for raw block devices block: introduce bdev_file_inode() restrict /dev/mem to idle io memory ranges arch: consolidate CONFIG_STRICT_DEVM in lib/Kconfig.debug ...

2016-01-09restrict /dev/mem to idle io memory rangesDan Williams1-3/+20
This effectively promotes IORESOURCE_BUSY to IORESOURCE_EXCLUSIVE semantics by default. If userspace really believes it is safe to access the memory region it can also perform the extra step of disabling an active driver. This protects device address ranges with read side effects and otherwise directs userspace to use the driver. Persistent memory presents a large "mistake surface" to /dev/mem as now accidental writes can corrupt a filesystem. In general if a device driver is busily using a memory region it already informs other parts of the kernel to not touch it via request_mem_region(). /dev/mem should honor the same safety restriction by default. Debugging a device driver from userspace becomes more difficult with this enabled. Any application using /dev/mem or mmap of sysfs pci resources will now need to perform the extra step of either: 1/ Disabling the driver, for example: echo <device id> > /dev/bus/<parent bus>/drivers/<driver name>/unbind 2/ Rebooting with "iomem=relaxed" on the command line 3/ Recompiling with CONFIG_IO_STRICT_DEVMEM=n Traditional users of /dev/mem like dosemu are unaffected because the first 1MB of memory is not subject to the IO_STRICT_DEVMEM restriction. Legacy X configurations use /dev/mem to talk to graphics hardware, but that functionality has since moved to kernel graphics drivers.

2015-12-08workqueue: implement lockup detectorTejun Heo1-0/+11
Workqueue stalls can happen from a variety of usage bugs such as missing WQ_MEM_RECLAIM flag or concurrency managed work item indefinitely staying RUNNING. These stalls can be extremely difficult to hunt down because the usual warning mechanisms can't detect workqueue stalls and the internal state is pretty opaque. To alleviate the situation, this patch implements workqueue lockup detector. It periodically monitors all worker_pools periodically and, if any pool failed to make forward progress longer than the threshold duration, triggers warning and dumps workqueue state as follows. BUG: workqueue lockup - pool cpus=0 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 stuck for 31s!

2015-12-01net: add support for netdev notifier error injectionNikolay Aleksandrov1-0/+23
This module allows to insert errors in some of netdevice's notifier events. All network drivers use these notifiers to signal various events and to check if they are allowed, e.g. PRECHANGEMTU and CHANGEMTU afterwards. Until recently I had to run failure tests by injecting a custom module, but now this infrastructure makes it trivial to test these failure paths. Some of the recent bugs I fixed were found using this module.

2015-11-06test_printf: test printf family at runtimeRasmus Villemoes1-0/+3
This adds a simple module for testing the kernel's printf facilities. Previously, some %p extensions have caused a wrong return value in case the entire output didn't fit and/or been unusable in kasprintf(). This should help catch such issues. Also, it should help ensure that changes to the formatting algorithms don't break anything. I'm not sure if we have a struct dentry or struct file lying around at boot time or if we can fake one, but most %p extensions should be testable, as should the ordinary number and string formatting. The nature of vararg functions means we can't use a more conventional table-driven approach. For now, this is mostly a skeleton; contributions are very welcome. Some tests are/will be slightly annoying to write, since the expected output depends on stuff like CONFIG_*, sizeof(long), runtime values etc. Signed-off-by: Rasmus Villemoes <linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk> Reviewed-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Cc: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com> Cc: Martin Kletzander <mkletzan@redhat.com> Cc: Rasmus Villemoes <linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

This enlarges function's stack frame and causes: 'warning: the frame size of X bytes is larger than Y bytes' The worst case I've seen for now is following: ../net/wireless/nl80211.c: In function `nl80211_send_wiphy': ../net/wireless/nl80211.c:1731:1: warning: the frame size of 5448 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=] That kind of warning becomes useless with KASAN=y.

2015-07-20futex: Fault/error injection capabilitiesDavidlohr Bueso1-0/+7
Although futexes are well known for being a royal pita, we really have very little debugging capabilities - except for relying on tglx's eye half the time. By simply making use of the existing fault-injection machinery, we can improve this situation, allowing generating artificial uaddress faults and deadlock scenarios. Of course, when this is disabled in production systems, the overhead for failure checks is practically zero -- so this is very cheap at the same time. Future work would be nice to now enhance trinity to make use of this. There is a special tunable 'ignore-private', which can filter out private futexes. Given the tsk->make_it_fail filter and this option, pi futexes can be narrowed down pretty closely.

2015-05-27rcu: Provide diagnostic option to slow down grace-period scansPaul E. McKenney1-2/+52
Grace-period scans of the rcu_node combining tree normally proceed quite quickly, so that it is very difficult to reproduce races against them. This commit therefore allows grace-period pre-initialization and cleanup to be artificially slowed down, increasing race-reproduction probability. A pair of pairs of new Kconfig parameters are provided, RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_PREINIT to enable the slowing down of propagating CPU-hotplug changes up the combining tree along with RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_PREINIT_DELAY to specify the delay in jiffies, and RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_CLEANUP to enable the slowing down of the end-of-grace-period cleanup scan along with RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_CLEANUP_DELAY to specify the delay in jiffies. Boot-time parameters named rcutree.gp_preinit_delay and rcutree.gp_cleanup_delay allow these delays to be specified at boot time. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

2015-04-14rcu: Control grace-period delays directly from valuePaul E. McKenney1-0/+1
In a misguided attempt to avoid an #ifdef, the use of the gp_init_delay module parameter was conditioned on the corresponding RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT Kconfig variable, using IS_ENABLED() at the point of use in the code. This meant that the compiler always saw the delay, which meant that RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT_DELAY had to be unconditionally defined. This in turn caused "make oldconfig" to ask pointless questions about the value of RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT_DELAY in cases where it was not even used. This commit avoids these pointless questions by defining gp_init_delay under #ifdef. In one branch, gp_init_delay is initialized to RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT_DELAY and is also a module parameter (thus allowing boot-time modification), and in the other branch gp_init_delay is a const variable initialized by default to zero. This approach also simplifies the code at the delay point by eliminating the IS_DEFINED(). Because gp_init_delay is constant zero in the no-delay case intended for production use, the "gp_init_delay > 0" check causes the delay to become dead code, as desired in this case. In addition, this commit replaces magic constant "10" with the preprocessor variable PER_RCU_NODE_PERIOD, which controls the number of grace periods that are allowed to elapse at full speed before a delay is inserted.

Memtest is a simple feature which fills the memory with a given set of patterns and validates memory contents, if bad memory regions is detected it reserves them via memblock API. Since memblock API is widely used by other architectures this feature can be enabled outside of x86 world. This patch set promotes memtest to live under generic mm umbrella and enables memtest feature for arm/arm64. It was reported that this patch set was useful for tracking down an issue with some errant DMA on an arm64 platform.

2015-03-13timekeeping: Add debugging checks to warn if we see delaysJohn Stultz1-0/+13
Recently there's been requests for better sanity checking in the time code, so that it's more clear when something is going wrong, since timekeeping issues could manifest in a large number of strange ways in various subsystems. Thus, this patch adds some extra infrastructure to add a check to update_wall_time() to print two new warnings: 1) if we see the call delayed beyond the 'max_cycles' overflow point, 2) or if we see the call delayed beyond the clocksource's 'max_idle_ns' value, which is currently 50% of the overflow point. This extra infrastructure is conditional on a new CONFIG_DEBUG_TIMEKEEPING option, also added in this patch - default off.

This provides the basic infrastructure to load kernel-specific python helper scripts when debugging the kernel in gdb. The loading mechanism is based on gdb loading for <objfile>-gdb.py when opening <objfile>. Therefore, this places a corresponding link to the main helper script into the output directory that contains vmlinux. The main scripts will pull in submodules containing Linux specific gdb commands and functions. To avoid polluting the source directory with compiled python modules, we link to them from the object directory. Due to gdb.parse_and_eval and string redirection for gdb.execute, we depend on gdb >= 7.2. This feature is enabled via CONFIG_GDB_SCRIPTS.

2015-02-13kasan: add kernel address sanitizer infrastructureAndrey Ryabinin1-0/+2
Kernel Address sanitizer (KASan) is a dynamic memory error detector. It provides fast and comprehensive solution for finding use-after-free and out-of-bounds bugs. KASAN uses compile-time instrumentation for checking every memory access, therefore GCC > v4.9.2 required. v4.9.2 almost works, but has issues with putting symbol aliases into the wrong section, which breaks kasan instrumentation of globals. This patch only adds infrastructure for kernel address sanitizer. It's not available for use yet. The idea and some code was borrowed from [1]. Basic idea: The main idea of KASAN is to use shadow memory to record whether each byte of memory is safe to access or not, and use compiler's instrumentation to check the shadow memory on each memory access. Address sanitizer uses 1/8 of the memory addressable in kernel for shadow memory and uses direct mapping with a scale and offset to translate a memory address to its corresponding shadow address. Here is function to translate address to corresponding shadow address: unsigned long kasan_mem_to_shadow(unsigned long addr) { return (addr >> KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SHIFT) + KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET; } where KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SHIFT = 3. So for every 8 bytes there is one corresponding byte of shadow memory. The following encoding used for each shadow byte: 0 means that all 8 bytes of the corresponding memory region are valid for access; k (1 <= k <= 7) means that the first k bytes are valid for access, and other (8 - k) bytes are not; Any negative value indicates that the entire 8-bytes are inaccessible. Different negative values used to distinguish between different kinds of inaccessible memory (redzones, freed memory) (see mm/kasan/kasan.h). To be able to detect accesses to bad memory we need a special compiler. Such compiler inserts a specific function calls (__asan_load*(addr), __asan_store*(addr)) before each memory access of size 1, 2, 4, 8 or 16. These functions check whether memory region is valid to access or not by checking corresponding shadow memory. If access is not valid an error printed. Historical background of the address sanitizer from Dmitry Vyukov: "We've developed the set of tools, AddressSanitizer (Asan), ThreadSanitizer and MemorySanitizer, for user space. We actively use them for testing inside of Google (continuous testing, fuzzing, running prod services). To date the tools have found more than 10'000 scary bugs in Chromium, Google internal codebase and various open-source projects (Firefox, OpenSSL, gcc, clang, ffmpeg, MySQL and lots of others): [2] [3] [4]. The tools are part of both gcc and clang compilers. We have not yet done massive testing under the Kernel AddressSanitizer (it's kind of chicken and egg problem, you need it to be upstream to start applying it extensively). To date it has found about 50 bugs. Bugs that we've found in upstream kernel are listed in [5]. We've also found ~20 bugs in out internal version of the kernel. Also people from Samsung and Oracle have found some. [...] As others noted, the main feature of AddressSanitizer is its performance due to inline compiler instrumentation and simple linear shadow memory. User-space Asan has ~2x slowdown on computational programs and ~2x memory consumption increase. Taking into account that kernel usually consumes only small fraction of CPU and memory when running real user-space programs, I would expect that kernel Asan will have ~10-30% slowdown and similar memory consumption increase (when we finish all tuning). I agree that Asan can well replace kmemcheck. We have plans to start working on Kernel MemorySanitizer that finds uses of unitialized memory. Asan+Msan will provide feature-parity with kmemcheck. As others noted, Asan will unlikely replace debug slab and pagealloc that can be enabled at runtime. Asan uses compiler instrumentation, so even if it is disabled, it still incurs visible overheads. Asan technology is easily portable to other architectures. Compiler instrumentation is fully portable. Runtime has some arch-dependent parts like shadow mapping and atomic operation interception. They are relatively easy to port." Comparison with other debugging features: ======================================== KMEMCHECK: - KASan can do almost everything that kmemcheck can. KASan uses compile-time instrumentation, which makes it significantly faster than kmemcheck. The only advantage of kmemcheck over KASan is detection of uninitialized memory reads. Some brief performance testing showed that kasan could be x500-x600 times faster than kmemcheck: $ netperf -l 30 MIGRATED TCP STREAM TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to localhost (127.0.0.1) port 0 AF_INET Recv Send Send Socket Socket Message Elapsed Size Size Size Time Throughput bytes bytes bytes secs. 10^6bits/sec no debug: 87380 16384 16384 30.00 41624.72 kasan inline: 87380 16384 16384 30.00 12870.54 kasan outline: 87380 16384 16384 30.00 10586.39 kmemcheck: 87380 16384 16384 30.03 20.23 - Also kmemcheck couldn't work on several CPUs. It always sets number of CPUs to 1. KASan doesn't have such limitation. DEBUG_PAGEALLOC: - KASan is slower than DEBUG_PAGEALLOC, but KASan works on sub-page granularity level, so it able to find more bugs. SLUB_DEBUG (poisoning, redzones): - SLUB_DEBUG has lower overhead than KASan. - SLUB_DEBUG in most cases are not able to detect bad reads, KASan able to detect both reads and writes. - In some cases (e.g. redzone overwritten) SLUB_DEBUG detect bugs only on allocation/freeing of object. KASan catch bugs right before it will happen, so we always know exact place of first bad read/write.

Pull networking updates from David Miller: 1) More iov_iter conversion work from Al Viro. [ The "crypto: switch af_alg_make_sg() to iov_iter" commit was wrong, and this pull actually adds an extra commit on top of the branch I'm pulling to fix that up, so that the pre-merge state is ok. - Linus ] 2) Various optimizations to the ipv4 forwarding information base trie lookup implementation. From Alexander Duyck. 3) Remove sock_iocb altogether, from CHristoph Hellwig. 4) Allow congestion control algorithm selection via routing metrics. From Daniel Borkmann. 5) Make ipv4 uncached route list per-cpu, from Eric Dumazet. 6) Handle rfs hash collisions more gracefully, also from Eric Dumazet. 7) Add xmit_more support to r8169, e1000, and e1000e drivers. From Florian Westphal. 8) Transparent Ethernet Bridging support for GRO, from Jesse Gross. 9) Add BPF packet actions to packet scheduler, from Jiri Pirko. 10) Add support for uniqu flow IDs to openvswitch, from Joe Stringer. 11) New NetCP ethernet driver, from Muralidharan Karicheri and Wingman Kwok. 12) More sanely handle out-of-window dupacks, which can result in serious ACK storms. From Neal Cardwell. 13) Various rhashtable bug fixes and enhancements, from Herbert Xu, Patrick McHardy, and Thomas Graf. 14) Support xmit_more in be2net, from Sathya Perla. 15) Group Policy extensions for vxlan, from Thomas Graf. 16) Remove Checksum Offload support for vxlan, from Tom Herbert. 17) Like ipv4, support lockless transmit over ipv6 UDP sockets.
