mm: security: introduce init_on_alloc=1 and init_on_free=1 boot options
Patch series "add init_on_alloc/init_on_free boot options", v10. Provide init_on_alloc and init_on_free boot options. These are aimed at preventing possible information leaks and making the control-flow bugs that depend on uninitialized values more deterministic. Enabling either of the options guarantees that the memory returned by the page allocator and SL[AU]B is initialized with zeroes. SLOB allocator isn't supported at the moment, as its emulation of kmem caches complicates handling of SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU caches correctly. Enabling init_on_free also guarantees that pages and heap objects are initialized right after they're freed, so it won't be possible to access stale data by using a dangling pointer. As suggested by Michal Hocko, right now we don't let the heap users to disable initialization for certain allocations. There's not enough evidence that doing so can speed up real-life cases, and introducing ways to opt-out may result in things going out of control. This patch (of 2): The new options are needed to prevent possible information leaks and make control-flow bugs that depend on uninitialized values more deterministic. This is expected to be on-by-default on Android and Chrome OS. And it gives the opportunity for anyone else to use it under distros too via the boot args. (The init_on_free feature is regularly requested by folks where memory forensics is included in their threat models.) init_on_alloc=1 makes the kernel initialize newly allocated pages and heap objects with zeroes. Initialization is done at allocation time at the places where checks for __GFP_ZERO are performed. init_on_free=1 makes the kernel initialize freed pages and heap objects with zeroes upon their deletion. This helps to ensure sensitive data doesn't leak via use-after-free accesses. Both init_on_alloc=1 and init_on_free=1 guarantee that the allocator returns zeroed memory. The two exceptions are slab caches with constructors and SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU flag. Those are never zero-initialized to preserve their semantics. Both init_on_alloc and init_on_free default to zero, but those defaults can be overridden with CONFIG_INIT_ON_ALLOC_DEFAULT_ON and CONFIG_INIT_ON_FREE_DEFAULT_ON. If either SLUB poisoning or page poisoning is enabled, those options take precedence over init_on_alloc and init_on_free: initialization is only applied to unpoisoned allocations. Slowdown for the new features compared to init_on_free=0, init_on_alloc=0: hackbench, init_on_free=1: +7.62% sys time (st.err 0.74%) hackbench, init_on_alloc=1: +7.75% sys time (st.err 2.14%) Linux build with -j12, init_on_free=1: +8.38% wall time (st.err 0.39%) Linux build with -j12, init_on_free=1: +24.42% sys time (st.err 0.52%) Linux build with -j12, init_on_alloc=1: -0.13% wall time (st.err 0.42%) Linux build with -j12, init_on_alloc=1: +0.57% sys time (st.err 0.40%) The slowdown for init_on_free=0, init_on_alloc=0 compared to the baseline is within the standard error. The new features are also going to pave the way for hardware memory tagging (e.g. arm64's MTE), which will require both on_alloc and on_free hooks to set the tags for heap objects. With MTE, tagging will have the same cost as memory initialization. Although init_on_free is rather costly, there are paranoid use-cases where in-memory data lifetime is desired to be minimized. There are various arguments for/against the realism of the associated threat models, but given that we'll need the infrastructure for MTE anyway, and there are people who want wipe-on-free behavior no matter what the performance cost, it seems reasonable to include it in this series.

mm/large system hash: clear hashdist when only one node with memory is booted
CONFIG_NUMA on 64-bit CPUs currently enables hashdist unconditionally even when booting on single node machines. This causes the large system hashes to be allocated with vmalloc, and mapped with small pages. This change clears hashdist if only one node has come up with memory. This results in the important large inode and dentry hashes using memblock allocations. All others are within 4MB size up to about 128GB of RAM, which allows them to be allocated from the linear map on most non-NUMA images. Other big hashes like futex and TCP should eventually be moved over to the same style of allocation as those vfs caches that use HASH_EARLY if !hashdist, so they don't exceed MAX_ORDER on very large non-NUMA images. This brings dTLB misses for linux kernel tree `git diff` from ~45,000 to ~8,000 on a Kaby Lake KVM guest with 8MB dentry hash and mitigations=off (performance is in the noise, under 1% difference, page tables are likely to be well cached for this workload).

mm/large system hash: use vmalloc for size > MAX_ORDER when !hashdist
The kernel currently clamps large system hashes to MAX_ORDER when hashdist is not set, which is rather arbitrary. vmalloc space is limited on 32-bit machines, but this shouldn't result in much more used because of small physical memory limiting system hash sizes. Include "vmalloc" or "linear" in the kernel log message.

mm, debug_pagealloc: use a page type instead of page_ext flag
When debug_pagealloc is enabled, we currently allocate the page_ext array to mark guard pages with the PAGE_EXT_DEBUG_GUARD flag. Now that we have the page_type field in struct page, we can use that instead, as guard pages are neither PageSlab nor mapped to userspace. This reduces memory overhead when debug_pagealloc is enabled and there are no other features requiring the page_ext array.

mm, page_alloc: more extensive free page checking with debug_pagealloc
The page allocator checks struct pages for expected state (mapcount, flags etc) as pages are being allocated (check_new_page()) and freed (free_pages_check()) to provide some defense against errors in page allocator users. Prior commits |

mm, debug_pagelloc: use static keys to enable debugging
Patch series "debug_pagealloc improvements".
I have been recently debugging some pcplist corruptions, where it would be
useful to perform struct page checks immediately as pages are allocated
from and freed to pcplists, which is now only possible by rebuilding the
kernel with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM (details in Patch 2 changelog).
To make this kind of debugging simpler in future on a distro kernel, I
have improved CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC so that it has even smaller overhead
when not enabled at boot time (Patch 1) and also when enabled (Patch 3),
and extended it to perform the struct page checks more often when enabled
(Patch 2). Now it can be configured in when building a distro kernel
without extra overhead, and debugging page use after free or double free
can be enabled simply by rebooting with debug_pagealloc=on.
This patch (of 3):
CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC has been redesigned by

mm: remove the exporting of totalram_pages
Previously totalram_pages was the global variable. Currently,
totalram_pages is the static inline function from the include/linux/mm.h
However, the function is also marked as EXPORT_SYMBOL, which is at best an
odd combination. Because there is no point for the static inline function
from a public header to be exported, this commit removes the
EXPORT_SYMBOL() marking. It will be still possible to use the function in
modules because all the symbols it depends on are exported.

mm: maintain randomization of page free lists
When freeing a page with an order >= shuffle_page_order randomly select the front or back of the list for insertion. While the mm tries to defragment physical pages into huge pages this can tend to make the page allocator more predictable over time. Inject the front-back randomness to preserve the initial randomness established by shuffle_free_memory() when the kernel was booted. The overhead of this manipulation is constrained by only being applied for MAX_ORDER sized pages by default.

mm: shuffle initial free memory to improve memory-side-cache utilization
Patch series "mm: Randomize free memory", v10.
This patch (of 3):
Randomization of the page allocator improves the average utilization of
a direct-mapped memory-side-cache. Memory side caching is a platform
capability that Linux has been previously exposed to in HPC
(high-performance computing) environments on specialty platforms. In
that instance it was a smaller pool of high-bandwidth-memory relative to
higher-capacity / lower-bandwidth DRAM. Now, this capability is going
to be found on general purpose server platforms where DRAM is a cache in
front of higher latency persistent memory [1].
Robert offered an explanation of the state of the art of Linux
interactions with memory-side-caches [2], and I copy it here:
It's been a problem in the HPC space:
http://www.nersc.gov/research-and-development/knl-cache-mode-performance-coe/
A kernel module called zonesort is available to try to help:
https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/xeon-phi-software
and this abandoned patch series proposed that for the kernel:
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170823100205.17311-1-lukasz.daniluk@intel.com
Dan's patch series doesn't attempt to ensure buffers won't conflict, but
also reduces the chance that the buffers will. This will make performance
more consistent, albeit slower than "optimal" (which is near impossible
to attain in a general-purpose kernel). That's better than forcing
users to deploy remedies like:
"To eliminate this gradual degradation, we have added a Stream
measurement to the Node Health Check that follows each job;
nodes are rebooted whenever their measured memory bandwidth
falls below 300 GB/s."
A replacement for zonesort was merged upstream in commit

mm: memblock: make keeping memblock memory opt-in rather than opt-out
Most architectures do not need the memblock memory after the page allocator is initialized, but only few enable ARCH_DISCARD_MEMBLOCK in the arch Kconfig. Replacing ARCH_DISCARD_MEMBLOCK with ARCH_KEEP_MEMBLOCK and inverting the logic makes it clear which architectures actually use memblock after system initialization and skips the necessity to add ARCH_DISCARD_MEMBLOCK to the architectures that are still missing that option.

mm, memory_hotplug: cleanup memory offline path
check_pages_isolated_cb currently accounts the whole pfn range as being offlined if test_pages_isolated suceeds on the range. This is based on the assumption that all pages in the range are freed which is currently the case in most cases but it won't be with later changes, as pages marked as vmemmap won't be isolated. Move the offlined pages counting to offline_isolated_pages_cb and rely on __offline_isolated_pages to return the correct value. check_pages_isolated_cb will still do it's primary job and check the pfn range. While we are at it remove check_pages_isolated and offline_isolated_pages and use directly walk_system_ram_range as do in online_pages.

mm: initialize MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES at a time instead of doing larger sections
Add yet another iterator, for_each_free_mem_range_in_zone_from, and then use it to support initializing and freeing pages in groups no larger than MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES. By doing this we can greatly improve the cache locality of the pages while we do several loops over them in the init and freeing process. We are able to tighten the loops further as a result of the "from" iterator as we can perform the initial checks for first_init_pfn in our first call to the iterator, and continue without the need for those checks via the "from" iterator. I have added this functionality in the function called deferred_init_mem_pfn_range_in_zone that primes the iterator and causes us to exit if we encounter any failure. On my x86_64 test system with 384GB of memory per node I saw a reduction in initialization time from 1.85s to 1.38s as a result of this patch.

mm: drop meminit_pfn_in_nid as it is redundant
As best as I can tell the meminit_pfn_in_nid call is completely redundant. The deferred memory initialization is already making use of for_each_free_mem_range which in turn will call into __next_mem_range which will only return a memory range if it matches the node ID provided assuming it is not NUMA_NO_NODE. I am operating on the assumption that there are no zones or pgdata_t structures that have a NUMA node of NUMA_NO_NODE associated with them. If that is the case then __next_mem_range will never return a memory range that doesn't match the zone's node ID and as such the check is redundant. So one piece I would like to verify on this is if this works for ia64. Technically it was using a different approach to get the node ID, but it seems to have the node ID also encoded into the memblock. So I am assuming this is okay, but would like to get confirmation on that. On my x86_64 test system with 384GB of memory per node I saw a reduction in initialization time from 2.80s to 1.85s as a result of this patch.

mm, page_alloc: disallow __GFP_COMP in alloc_pages_exact()
alloc_pages_exact*() allocates a page of sufficient order and then splits it to return only the number of pages requested. That makes it incompatible with __GFP_COMP, because compound pages cannot be split. As shown by [1] things may silently work until the requested size (possibly depending on user) stops being power of two. Then for CONFIG_DEBUG_VM, BUG_ON() triggers in split_page(). Without CONFIG_DEBUG_VM, consequences are unclear. There are several options here, none of them great: 1) Don't do the splitting when __GFP_COMP is passed, and return the whole compound page. However if caller then returns it via free_pages_exact(), that will be unexpected and the freeing actions there will be wrong. 2) Warn and remove __GFP_COMP from the flags. But the caller may have really wanted it, so things may break later somewhere. 3) Warn and return NULL. However NULL may be unexpected, especially for small sizes. This patch picks option 2, because as Michal Hocko put it: "callers wanted it" is much less probable than "caller is simply confused and more gfp flags is surely better than fewer".

mm/hibernation: Make hibernation handle unmapped pages
Make hibernate handle unmapped pages on the direct map when CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SET_ALIAS=y is set. These functions allow for setting pages to invalid configurations, so now hibernate should check if the pages have valid mappings and handle if they are unmapped when doing a hibernate save operation. Previously this checking was already done when CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC=y was configured. It does not appear to have a big hibernating performance impact. The speed of the saving operation before this change was measured as 819.02 MB/s, and after was measured at 813.32 MB/s.

mm/page_alloc.c: avoid potential NULL pointer dereference
ac.preferred_zoneref->zone passed to alloc_flags_nofragment() can be NULL.
'zone' pointer unconditionally derefernced in alloc_flags_nofragment().
Bail out on NULL zone to avoid potential crash. Currently we don't see
any crashes only because alloc_flags_nofragment() has another bug which
allows compiler to optimize away all accesses to 'zone'.

mm/hotplug: treat CMA pages as unmovable
has_unmovable_pages() is used by allocating CMA and gigantic pages as well as the memory hotplug. The later doesn't know how to offline CMA pool properly now, but if an unused (free) CMA page is encountered, then has_unmovable_pages() happily considers it as a free memory and propagates this up the call chain. Memory offlining code then frees the page without a proper CMA tear down which leads to an accounting issues. Moreover if the same memory range is onlined again then the memory never gets back to the CMA pool. State after memory offline: # grep cma /proc/vmstat nr_free_cma 205824 # cat /sys/kernel/debug/cma/cma-kvm_cma/count 209920 Also, kmemleak still think those memory address are reserved below but have already been used by the buddy allocator after onlining. This patch fixes the situation by treating CMA pageblocks as unmovable except when has_unmovable_pages() is called as part of CMA allocation.

mm, compaction: capture a page under direct compaction
Compaction is inherently race-prone as a suitable page freed during compaction can be allocated by any parallel task. This patch uses a capture_control structure to isolate a page immediately when it is freed by a direct compactor in the slow path of the page allocator. The intent is to avoid redundant scanning. 5.0.0-rc1 5.0.0-rc1 selective-v3r17 capture-v3r19 Amean fault-both-1 0.00 ( 0.00%) 0.00 * 0.00%* Amean fault-both-3 2582.11 ( 0.00%) 2563.68 ( 0.71%) Amean fault-both-5 4500.26 ( 0.00%) 4233.52 ( 5.93%) Amean fault-both-7 5819.53 ( 0.00%) 6333.65 ( -8.83%) Amean fault-both-12 9321.18 ( 0.00%) 9759.38 ( -4.70%) Amean fault-both-18 9782.76 ( 0.00%) 10338.76 ( -5.68%) Amean fault-both-24 15272.81 ( 0.00%) 13379.55 * 12.40%* Amean fault-both-30 15121.34 ( 0.00%) 16158.25 ( -6.86%) Amean fault-both-32 18466.67 ( 0.00%) 18971.21 ( -2.73%) Latency is only moderately affected but the devil is in the details. A closer examination indicates that base page fault latency is reduced but latency of huge pages is increased as it takes creater care to succeed. Part of the "problem" is that allocation success rates are close to 100% even when under pressure and compaction gets harder 5.0.0-rc1 5.0.0-rc1 selective-v3r17 capture-v3r19 Percentage huge-3 96.70 ( 0.00%) 98.23 ( 1.58%) Percentage huge-5 96.99 ( 0.00%) 95.30 ( -1.75%) Percentage huge-7 94.19 ( 0.00%) 97.24 ( 3.24%) Percentage huge-12 94.95 ( 0.00%) 97.35 ( 2.53%) Percentage huge-18 96.74 ( 0.00%) 97.30 ( 0.58%) Percentage huge-24 97.07 ( 0.00%) 97.55 ( 0.50%) Percentage huge-30 95.69 ( 0.00%) 98.50 ( 2.95%) Percentage huge-32 96.70 ( 0.00%) 99.27 ( 2.65%) And scan rates are reduced as expected by 6% for the migration scanner and 29% for the free scanner indicating that there is less redundant work.

mm, compaction: ignore the fragmentation avoidance boost for isolation and compaction
When pageblocks get fragmented, watermarks are artifically boosted to reclaim pages to avoid further fragmentation events. However, compaction is often either fragmentation-neutral or moving movable pages away from unmovable/reclaimable pages. As the true watermarks are preserved, allow compaction to ignore the boost factor. The expected impact is very slight as the main benefit is that compaction is slightly more likely to succeed when the system has been fragmented very recently. On both 1-socket and 2-socket machines for THP-intensive allocation during fragmentation the success rate was increased by less than 1% which is marginal. However, detailed tracing indicated that failure of migration due to a premature ENOMEM triggered by watermark checks were eliminated.

mm: remove extra drain pages on pcp list
In the current implementation, there are two places to isolate a range of page: __offline_pages() and alloc_contig_range(). During this procedure, it will drain pages on pcp list. Below is a brief call flow: __offline_pages()/alloc_contig_range() start_isolate_page_range() set_migratetype_isolate() drain_all_pages() drain_all_pages() <--- A This snippet shows the current logic is isolate and drain pcp list for each pageblock and drain pcp list again for the whole range. start_isolate_page_range is responsible for isolating the given pfn range. One part of that job is to make sure that also pages that are on the allocator pcp lists are properly isolated. Otherwise they could be reused and the range wouldn't be completely isolated until the memory is freed back. While there is no strict guarantee here because pages might get allocated at any time before drain_all_pages is called there doesn't seem to be any strong demand for such a guarantee. In any case, draining is already done at the isolation level and there is no need to do it again later by start_isolate_page_range callers (memory hotplug and CMA allocator currently). Therefore remove pointless draining in existing callers to make the code more clear and functionally correct.

This should not matter as memcg_charge_slab() is not in the hot path.

mm: replace all open encodings for NUMA_NO_NODE
Patch series "Replace all open encodings for NUMA_NO_NODE", v3. All these places for replacement were found by running the following grep patterns on the entire kernel code. Please let me know if this might have missed some instances. This might also have replaced some false positives. I will appreciate suggestions, inputs and review. 1. git grep "nid == -1" 2. git grep "node == -1" 3. git grep "nid = -1" 4. git grep "node = -1" This patch (of 2): At present there are multiple places where invalid node number is encoded as -1. Even though implicitly understood it is always better to have macros in there. Replace these open encodings for an invalid node number with the global macro NUMA_NO_NODE. This helps remove NUMA related assumptions like 'invalid node' from various places redirecting them to a common definition.

mm/page_alloc.c: memory hotplug: free pages as higher order
When freeing pages are done with higher order, time spent on coalescing pages by buddy allocator can be reduced. With section size of 256MB, hot add latency of a single section shows improvement from 50-60 ms to less than 1 ms, hence improving the hot add latency by 60 times. Modify external providers of online callback to align with the change.

mm: Use fixed constant in page_frag_alloc instead of size + 1
This patch replaces the size + 1 value introduced with the recent fix for 1
byte allocs with a constant value.
The idea here is to reduce code overhead as the previous logic would have
to read size into a register, then increment it, and write it back to
whatever field was being used. By using a constant we can avoid those
memory reads and arithmetic operations in favor of just encoding the
maximum value into the operation itself.

mm: page_alloc: fix ref bias in page_frag_alloc() for 1-byte allocs
The basic idea behind ->pagecnt_bias is: If we pre-allocate the maximum number of references that we might need to create in the fastpath later, the bump-allocation fastpath only has to modify the non-atomic bias value that tracks the number of extra references we hold instead of the atomic refcount. The maximum number of allocations we can serve (under the assumption that no allocation is made with size 0) is nc->size, so that's the bias used. However, even when all memory in the allocation has been given away, a reference to the page is still held; and in the `offset < 0` slowpath, the page may be reused if everyone else has dropped their references. This means that the necessary number of references is actually `nc->size+1`. Luckily, from a quick grep, it looks like the only path that can call page_frag_alloc(fragsz=1) is TAP with the IFF_NAPI_FRAGS flag, which requires CAP_NET_ADMIN in the init namespace and is only intended to be used for kernel testing and fuzzing. To test for this issue, put a `WARN_ON(page_ref_count(page) == 0)` in the `offset < 0` path, below the virt_to_page() call, and then repeatedly call writev() on a TAP device with IFF_TAP|IFF_NO_PI|IFF_NAPI_FRAGS|IFF_NAPI, with a vector consisting of 15 elements containing 1 byte each.

mm, page_alloc: do not wake kswapd with zone lock held
syzbot reported the following regression in the latest merge window and
it was confirmed by Qian Cai that a similar bug was visible from a
different context.
======================================================
WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected
4.20.0+ #297 Not tainted
------------------------------------------------------
syz-executor0/8529 is trying to acquire lock:
000000005e7fb829 (&pgdat->kswapd_wait){....}, at:
__wake_up_common_lock+0x19e/0x330 kernel/sched/wait.c:120
but task is already holding lock:
000000009bb7bae0 (&(&zone->lock)->rlock){-.-.}, at: spin_lock
include/linux/spinlock.h:329 [inline]
000000009bb7bae0 (&(&zone->lock)->rlock){-.-.}, at: rmqueue_bulk
mm/page_alloc.c:2548 [inline]
000000009bb7bae0 (&(&zone->lock)->rlock){-.-.}, at: __rmqueue_pcplist

000000009bb7bae0 (&(&zone->lock)->rlock){-.-.}, at:
get_page_from_freelist+0x1bae/0x52a0 mm/page_alloc.c:3491
It appears to be a false positive in that the only way the lock ordering
should be inverted is if kswapd is waking itself and the wakeup
allocates debugging objects which should already be allocated if it's
kswapd doing the waking. Nevertheless, the possibility exists and so
it's best to avoid the problem.
This patch flags a zone as needing a kswapd using the, surprisingly,
unused zone flag field. The flag is read without the lock held to do
the wakeup. It's possible that the flag setting context is not the same
as the flag clearing context or for small races to occur. However, each
race possibility is harmless and there is no visible degredation in
fragmentation treatment.
While zone->flag could have continued to be unused, there is potential
for moving some existing fields into the flags field instead.
Particularly read-mostly ones like zone->initialized and
zone->contiguous.
