License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

mm: reorganize SLAB freelist randomization The kernel heap allocators are using a sequential freelist making their allocation predictable. This predictability makes kernel heap overflow easier to exploit. An attacker can careful prepare the kernel heap to control the following chunk overflowed. For example these attacks exploit the predictability of the heap: - Linux Kernel CAN SLUB overflow (https://goo.gl/oMNWkU) - Exploiting Linux Kernel Heap corruptions (http://goo.gl/EXLn95) ***Problems that needed solving: - Randomize the Freelist (singled linked) used in the SLUB allocator. - Ensure good performance to encourage usage. - Get best entropy in early boot stage. ***Parts: - 01/02 Reorganize the SLAB Freelist randomization to share elements with the SLUB implementation. - 02/02 The SLUB Freelist randomization implementation. Similar approach than the SLAB but tailored to the singled freelist used in SLUB. ***Performance data: slab_test impact is between 3% to 4% on average for 100000 attempts without smp.

slab: correct size_index table before replacing the bootstrap kmem_cache_node This patch moves the initialization of the size_index table slightly earlier so that the first few kmem_cache_node's can be safely allocated when KMALLOC_MIN_SIZE is large. There are currently two ways to generate indices into kmalloc_caches (via kmalloc_index() and via the size_index table in slab_common.c) and on some arches (possibly only MIPS) they potentially disagree with each other until create_kmalloc_caches() has been called. It seems that the intention is that the size_index table is a fast equivalent to kmalloc_index() and that create_kmalloc_caches() patches the table to return the correct value for the cases where kmalloc_index()'s if-statements apply. The failing sequence was: * kmalloc_caches contains NULL elements * kmem_cache_init initialises the element that 'struct kmem_cache_node' will be allocated to. For 32-bit Mips, this is a 56-byte struct and kmalloc_index returns KMALLOC_SHIFT_LOW (7). * init_list is called which calls kmalloc_node to allocate a 'struct kmem_cache_node'. * kmalloc_slab selects the kmem_caches element using size_index[size_index_elem(size)]. For MIPS, size is 56, and the expression returns 6. * This element of kmalloc_caches is NULL and allocation fails. * If it had not already failed, it would have called create_kmalloc_caches() at this point which would have changed size_index[size_index_elem(size)] to 7. I don't believe the bug to be LLVM specific but GCC doesn't normally encounter the problem. I haven't been able to identify exactly what GCC is doing better (probably inlining) but it seems that GCC is managing to optimize to the point that it eliminates the problematic allocations. This theory is supported by the fact that GCC can be made to fail in the same way by changing inline, __inline, __inline__, and __always_inline in include/linux/compiler-gcc.h such that they don't actually inline things.

mm: add support for kmem caches in DMA32 zone Patch series "iommu/io-pgtable-arm-v7s: Use DMA32 zone for page tables", v6. This is a followup to the discussion in [1], [2]. IOMMUs using ARMv7 short-descriptor format require page tables (level 1 and 2) to be allocated within the first 4GB of RAM, even on 64-bit systems. For L1 tables that are bigger than a page, we can just use __get_free_pages with GFP_DMA32 (on arm64 systems only, arm would still use GFP_DMA). For L2 tables that only take 1KB, it would be a waste to allocate a full page, so we considered 3 approaches: 1. This series, adding support for GFP_DMA32 slab caches. 2. genalloc, which requires pre-allocating the maximum number of L2 page tables (4096, so 4MB of memory). 3. page_frag, which is not very memory-efficient as it is unable to reuse freed fragments until the whole page is freed. [3] This series is the most memory-efficient approach. stable@ note: We confirmed that this is a regression, and IOMMU errors happen on 4.19 and linux-next/master on MT8173 (elm, Acer Chromebook R13). The issue most likely starts from commit ad67f5a6545f ("arm64: replace ZONE_DMA with ZONE_DMA32"), i.e. 4.15, and presumably breaks a number of Mediatek platforms (and maybe others?). [1] https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/iommu/2018-November/030876.html [2] https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/iommu/2018-December/031696.html [3] https://patchwork.codeaurora.org/patch/671639/ This patch (of 3): IOMMUs using ARMv7 short-descriptor format require page tables to be allocated within the first 4GB of RAM, even on 64-bit systems. On arm64, this is done by passing GFP_DMA32 flag to memory allocation functions. For IOMMU L2 tables that only take 1KB, it would be a waste to allocate a full page using get_free_pages, so we considered 3 approaches: 1. This patch, adding support for GFP_DMA32 slab caches. 2. genalloc, which requires pre-allocating the maximum number of L2 page tables (4096, so 4MB of memory). 3. page_frag, which is not very memory-efficient as it is unable to reuse freed fragments until the whole page is freed. This change makes it possible to create a custom cache in DMA32 zone using kmem_cache_create, then allocate memory using kmem_cache_alloc. We do not create a DMA32 kmalloc cache array, as there are currently no users of kmalloc(..., GFP_DMA32). These calls will continue to trigger a warning, as we keep GFP_DMA32 in GFP_SLAB_BUG_MASK. This implies that calls to kmem_cache_*alloc on a SLAB_CACHE_DMA32 kmem_cache must _not_ use GFP_DMA32 (it is anyway redundant and unnecessary).

slab, slub: skip unnecessary kasan_cache_shutdown() The kasan quarantine is designed to delay freeing slab objects to catch use-after-free. The quarantine can be large (several percent of machine memory size). When kmem_caches are deleted related objects are flushed from the quarantine but this requires scanning the entire quarantine which can be very slow. We have seen the kernel busily working on this while holding slab_mutex and badly affecting cache_reaper, slabinfo readers and memcg kmem cache creations. It can easily reproduced by following script: yes . | head -1000000 | xargs stat > /dev/null for i in `seq 1 10`; do seq 500 | (cd /cg/memory && xargs mkdir) seq 500 | xargs -I{} sh -c 'echo $BASHPID > \ /cg/memory/{}/tasks && exec stat .' > /dev/null seq 500 | (cd /cg/memory && xargs rmdir) done The busy stack: kasan_cache_shutdown shutdown_cache memcg_destroy_kmem_caches mem_cgroup_css_free css_free_rwork_fn process_one_work worker_thread kthread ret_from_fork This patch is based on the observation that if the kmem_cache to be destroyed is empty then there should not be any objects of this cache in the quarantine. Without the patch the script got stuck for couple of hours. With the patch the script completed within a second.

mm: memcg/slab: generalize postponed non-root kmem_cache deactivation Currently SLUB uses a work scheduled after an RCU grace period to deactivate a non-root kmem_cache. This mechanism can be reused for kmem_caches release, but requires generalization for SLAB case. Introduce kmemcg_cache_deactivate() function, which calls allocator-specific __kmem_cache_deactivate() and schedules execution of __kmem_cache_deactivate_after_rcu() with all necessary locks in a worker context after an rcu grace period. Here is the new calling scheme: kmemcg_cache_deactivate() __kmemcg_cache_deactivate() SLAB/SLUB-specific kmemcg_rcufn() rcu kmemcg_workfn() work __kmemcg_cache_deactivate_after_rcu() SLAB/SLUB-specific instead of: __kmemcg_cache_deactivate() SLAB/SLUB-specific slab_deactivate_memcg_cache_rcu_sched() SLUB-only kmemcg_rcufn() rcu kmemcg_workfn() work kmemcg_cache_deact_after_rcu() SLUB-only For consistency, all allocator-specific functions start with "__".

slab: implement slab_root_caches list With kmem cgroup support enabled, kmem_caches can be created and destroyed frequently and a great number of near empty kmem_caches can accumulate if there are a lot of transient cgroups and the system is not under memory pressure. When memory reclaim starts under such conditions, it can lead to consecutive deactivation and destruction of many kmem_caches, easily hundreds of thousands on moderately large systems, exposing scalability issues in the current slab management code. This is one of the patches to address the issue. slab_caches currently lists all caches including root and memcg ones. This is the only data structure which lists the root caches and iterating root caches can only be done by walking the list while skipping over memcg caches. As there can be a huge number of memcg caches, this can become very expensive. This also can make /proc/slabinfo behave very badly. seq_file processes reads in 4k chunks and seeks to the previous Nth position on slab_caches list to resume after each chunk. With a lot of memcg cache churns on the list, reading /proc/slabinfo can become very slow and its content often ends up with duplicate and/or missing entries. This patch adds a new list slab_root_caches which lists only the root caches. When memcg is not enabled, it becomes just an alias of slab_caches. memcg specific list operations are collected into memcg_[un]link_cache().

The rationale is to save memory when kmem accounting is disabled.

OTOH, keeping a pointer to memcg_cache_params struct instead of embedding it results in touching one more cache line on kmem alloc/free hot paths. Besides, it makes linking kmem caches in a list chained by a field of struct memcg_cache_params really painful due to a level of indirection, while I want to make them linked in the following patch.

slab: propagate tunable values SLAB allows us to tune a particular cache behavior with tunables. When creating a new memcg cache copy, we'd like to preserve any tunables the parent cache already had. This could be done by an explicit call to do_tune_cpucache() after the cache is created. But this is not very convenient now that the caches are created from common code, since this function is SLAB-specific. Another method of doing that is taking advantage of the fact that do_tune_cpucache() is always called from enable_cpucache(), which is called at cache initialization. We can just preset the values, and then things work as expected. It can also happen that a root cache has its tunables updated during normal system operation. In this case, we will propagate the change to all caches that are already active. This change will require us to move the assignment of root_cache in memcg_params a bit earlier.

memcg: unify slab and other kmem pages charging We have memcg_kmem_charge and memcg_kmem_uncharge methods for charging and uncharging kmem pages to memcg, but currently they are not used for charging slab pages (i.e. they are only used for charging pages allocated with alloc_kmem_pages). The only reason why the slab subsystem uses special helpers, memcg_charge_slab and memcg_uncharge_slab, is that it needs to charge to the memcg of kmem cache while memcg_charge_kmem charges to the memcg that the current task belongs to. To remove this diversity, this patch adds an extra argument to __memcg_kmem_charge that can be a pointer to a memcg or NULL. If it is not NULL, the function tries to charge to the memcg it points to, otherwise it charge to the current context. Next, it makes the slab subsystem use this function to charge slab pages. Since memcg_charge_kmem and memcg_uncharge_kmem helpers are now used only in __memcg_kmem_charge and __memcg_kmem_uncharge, they are inlined. Since __memcg_kmem_charge stores a pointer to the memcg in the page struct, we don't need memcg_uncharge_slab anymore and can use free_kmem_pages. Besides, one can now detect which memcg a slab page belongs to by reading /proc/kpagecgroup. Note, this patch switches slab to charge-after-alloc design. Since this design is already used for all other memcg charges, it should not make any difference.

mm: memcg/slab: postpone kmem_cache memcg pointer initialization to memcg_link_cache() Patch series "mm: reparent slab memory on cgroup removal", v7. # Why do we need this? We've noticed that the number of dying cgroups is steadily growing on most of our hosts in production. The following investigation revealed an issue in the userspace memory reclaim code [1], accounting of kernel stacks [2], and also the main reason: slab objects. The underlying problem is quite simple: any page charged to a cgroup holds a reference to it, so the cgroup can't be reclaimed unless all charged pages are gone. If a slab object is actively used by other cgroups, it won't be reclaimed, and will prevent the origin cgroup from being reclaimed. Slab objects, and first of all vfs cache, is shared between cgroups, which are using the same underlying fs, and what's even more important, it's shared between multiple generations of the same workload. So if something is running periodically every time in a new cgroup (like how systemd works), we do accumulate multiple dying cgroups. Strictly speaking pagecache isn't different here, but there is a key difference: we disable protection and apply some extra pressure on LRUs of dying cgroups, and these LRUs contain all charged pages. My experiments show that with the disabled kernel memory accounting the number of dying cgroups stabilizes at a relatively small number (~100, depends on memory pressure and cgroup creation rate), and with kernel memory accounting it grows pretty steadily up to several thousands. Memory cgroups are quite complex and big objects (mostly due to percpu stats), so it leads to noticeable memory losses. Memory occupied by dying cgroups is measured in hundreds of megabytes. I've even seen a host with more than 100Gb of memory wasted for dying cgroups. It leads to a degradation of performance with the uptime, and generally limits the usage of cgroups. My previous attempt [3] to fix the problem by applying extra pressure on slab shrinker lists caused a regressions with xfs and ext4, and has been reverted [4]. The following attempts to find the right balance [5, 6] were not successful. So instead of trying to find a maybe non-existing balance, let's do reparent accounted slab caches to the parent cgroup on cgroup removal. # Implementation approach There is however a significant problem with reparenting of slab memory: there is no list of charged pages. Some of them are in shrinker lists, but not all. Introducing of a new list is really not an option. But fortunately there is a way forward: every slab page has a stable pointer to the corresponding kmem_cache. So the idea is to reparent kmem_caches instead of slab pages. It's actually simpler and cheaper, but requires some underlying changes: 1) Make kmem_caches to hold a single reference to the memory cgroup, instead of a separate reference per every slab page. 2) Stop setting page->mem_cgroup pointer for memcg slab pages and use page->kmem_cache->memcg indirection instead. It's used only on slab page release, so performance overhead shouldn't be a big issue. 3) Introduce a refcounter for non-root slab caches. It's required to be able to destroy kmem_caches when they become empty and release the associated memory cgroup. There is a bonus: currently we release all memcg kmem_caches all together with the memory cgroup itself. This patchset allows individual kmem_caches to be released as soon as they become inactive and free. Some additional implementation details are provided in corresponding commit messages. # Results Below is the average number of dying cgroups on two groups of our production hosts. They do run some sort of web frontend workload, the memory pressure is moderate. As we can see, with the kernel memory reparenting the number stabilizes in 60s range; however with the original version it grows almost linearly and doesn't show any signs of plateauing. The difference in slab and percpu usage between patched and unpatched versions also grows linearly.

slab: implement slab_root_caches list With kmem cgroup support enabled, kmem_caches can be created and destroyed frequently and a great number of near empty kmem_caches can accumulate if there are a lot of transient cgroups and the system is not under memory pressure. When memory reclaim starts under such conditions, it can lead to consecutive deactivation and destruction of many kmem_caches, easily hundreds of thousands on moderately large systems, exposing scalability issues in the current slab management code. This is one of the patches to address the issue. slab_caches currently lists all caches including root and memcg ones. This is the only data structure which lists the root caches and iterating root caches can only be done by walking the list while skipping over memcg caches. As there can be a huge number of memcg caches, this can become very expensive. This also can make /proc/slabinfo behave very badly. seq_file processes reads in 4k chunks and seeks to the previous Nth position on slab_caches list to resume after each chunk. With a lot of memcg cache churns on the list, reading /proc/slabinfo can become very slow and its content often ends up with duplicate and/or missing entries. This patch adds a new list slab_root_caches which lists only the root caches. When memcg is not enabled, it becomes just an alias of slab_caches. memcg specific list operations are collected into memcg_[un]link_cache().

mm/slab: validate cache membership under freelist hardening Patch series "mm/slab: Improved sanity checking". This adds defenses against slab cache confusion (as seen in real-world exploits[1]) and gracefully handles type confusions when trying to look up slab caches from an arbitrary page. (Also is patch 3: new LKDTM tests for these defenses as well as for the existing double-free detection. This patch (of 3): When building under CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENING, it makes sense to perform sanity-checking on the assumed slab cache during kmem_cache_free() to make sure the kernel doesn't mix freelists across slab caches and corrupt memory (as seen in the exploitation of flaws like CVE-2018-9568[1]). Note that the prior code might WARN() but still corrupt memory (i.e. return the assumed cache instead of the owned cache). There is no noticeable performance impact (changes are within noise). Measuring parallel kernel builds, I saw the following with CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED, before and after this patch: before: Run times: 288.85 286.53 287.09 287.07 287.21 Min: 286.53 Max: 288.85 Mean: 287.35 Std Dev: 0.79 after: Run times: 289.58 287.40 286.97 287.20 287.01 Min: 286.97 Max: 289.58 Mean: 287.63 Std Dev: 0.99 Delta: 0.1% which is well below the standard deviation [1] https://github.com/ThomasKing2014/slides/raw/master/Building%20universal%20Android%20rooting%20with%20a%20type%20confusion%20vulnerability.pdf Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190530045017.15252-2-keescook@chromium.org Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Cc: Pekka Enberg <penberg@kernel.org> Cc: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Cc: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@lge.com> Cc: Matthew Wilcox <willy@infradead.org> Cc: Alexander Popov <alex.popov@linux.com> Cc: Alexander Potapenko <glider@google.com> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

slab: propagate tunable values SLAB allows us to tune a particular cache behavior with tunables. When creating a new memcg cache copy, we'd like to preserve any tunables the parent cache already had. This could be done by an explicit call to do_tune_cpucache() after the cache is created. But this is not very convenient now that the caches are created from common code, since this function is SLAB-specific. Another method of doing that is taking advantage of the fact that do_tune_cpucache() is always called from enable_cpucache(), which is called at cache initialization. We can just preset the values, and then things work as expected. It can also happen that a root cache has its tunables updated during normal system operation. In this case, we will propagate the change to all caches that are already active. This change will require us to move the assignment of root_cache in memcg_params a bit earlier.

memcg: unify slab and other kmem pages charging We have memcg_kmem_charge and memcg_kmem_uncharge methods for charging and uncharging kmem pages to memcg, but currently they are not used for charging slab pages (i.e. they are only used for charging pages allocated with alloc_kmem_pages). The only reason why the slab subsystem uses special helpers, memcg_charge_slab and memcg_uncharge_slab, is that it needs to charge to the memcg of kmem cache while memcg_charge_kmem charges to the memcg that the current task belongs to. To remove this diversity, this patch adds an extra argument to __memcg_kmem_charge that can be a pointer to a memcg or NULL. If it is not NULL, the function tries to charge to the memcg it points to, otherwise it charge to the current context. Next, it makes the slab subsystem use this function to charge slab pages. Since memcg_charge_kmem and memcg_uncharge_kmem helpers are now used only in __memcg_kmem_charge and __memcg_kmem_uncharge, they are inlined. Since __memcg_kmem_charge stores a pointer to the memcg in the page struct, we don't need memcg_uncharge_slab anymore and can use free_kmem_pages. Besides, one can now detect which memcg a slab page belongs to by reading /proc/kpagecgroup. Note, this patch switches slab to charge-after-alloc design. Since this design is already used for all other memcg charges, it should not make any difference.

mm: memcg/slab: postpone kmem_cache memcg pointer initialization to memcg_link_cache() Patch series "mm: reparent slab memory on cgroup removal", v7. # Why do we need this? We've noticed that the number of dying cgroups is steadily growing on most of our hosts in production. The following investigation revealed an issue in the userspace memory reclaim code [1], accounting of kernel stacks [2], and also the main reason: slab objects. The underlying problem is quite simple: any page charged to a cgroup holds a reference to it, so the cgroup can't be reclaimed unless all charged pages are gone. If a slab object is actively used by other cgroups, it won't be reclaimed, and will prevent the origin cgroup from being reclaimed. Slab objects, and first of all vfs cache, is shared between cgroups, which are using the same underlying fs, and what's even more important, it's shared between multiple generations of the same workload. So if something is running periodically every time in a new cgroup (like how systemd works), we do accumulate multiple dying cgroups. Strictly speaking pagecache isn't different here, but there is a key difference: we disable protection and apply some extra pressure on LRUs of dying cgroups, and these LRUs contain all charged pages. My experiments show that with the disabled kernel memory accounting the number of dying cgroups stabilizes at a relatively small number (~100, depends on memory pressure and cgroup creation rate), and with kernel memory accounting it grows pretty steadily up to several thousands. Memory cgroups are quite complex and big objects (mostly due to percpu stats), so it leads to noticeable memory losses. Memory occupied by dying cgroups is measured in hundreds of megabytes. I've even seen a host with more than 100Gb of memory wasted for dying cgroups. It leads to a degradation of performance with the uptime, and generally limits the usage of cgroups. My previous attempt [3] to fix the problem by applying extra pressure on slab shrinker lists caused a regressions with xfs and ext4, and has been reverted [4]. The following attempts to find the right balance [5, 6] were not successful. So instead of trying to find a maybe non-existing balance, let's do reparent accounted slab caches to the parent cgroup on cgroup removal. # Implementation approach There is however a significant problem with reparenting of slab memory: there is no list of charged pages. Some of them are in shrinker lists, but not all. Introducing of a new list is really not an option. But fortunately there is a way forward: every slab page has a stable pointer to the corresponding kmem_cache. So the idea is to reparent kmem_caches instead of slab pages. It's actually simpler and cheaper, but requires some underlying changes: 1) Make kmem_caches to hold a single reference to the memory cgroup, instead of a separate reference per every slab page. 2) Stop setting page->mem_cgroup pointer for memcg slab pages and use page->kmem_cache->memcg indirection instead. It's used only on slab page release, so performance overhead shouldn't be a big issue. 3) Introduce a refcounter for non-root slab caches. It's required to be able to destroy kmem_caches when they become empty and release the associated memory cgroup. There is a bonus: currently we release all memcg kmem_caches all together with the memory cgroup itself. This patchset allows individual kmem_caches to be released as soon as they become inactive and free. Some additional implementation details are provided in corresponding commit messages. # Results Below is the average number of dying cgroups on two groups of our production hosts. They do run some sort of web frontend workload, the memory pressure is moderate. As we can see, with the kernel memory reparenting the number stabilizes in 60s range; however with the original version it grows almost linearly and doesn't show any signs of plateauing. The difference in slab and percpu usage between patched and unpatched versions also grows linearly.

slab: implement slab_root_caches list With kmem cgroup support enabled, kmem_caches can be created and destroyed frequently and a great number of near empty kmem_caches can accumulate if there are a lot of transient cgroups and the system is not under memory pressure. When memory reclaim starts under such conditions, it can lead to consecutive deactivation and destruction of many kmem_caches, easily hundreds of thousands on moderately large systems, exposing scalability issues in the current slab management code. This is one of the patches to address the issue. slab_caches currently lists all caches including root and memcg ones. This is the only data structure which lists the root caches and iterating root caches can only be done by walking the list while skipping over memcg caches. As there can be a huge number of memcg caches, this can become very expensive. This also can make /proc/slabinfo behave very badly. seq_file processes reads in 4k chunks and seeks to the previous Nth position on slab_caches list to resume after each chunk. With a lot of memcg cache churns on the list, reading /proc/slabinfo can become very slow and its content often ends up with duplicate and/or missing entries. This patch adds a new list slab_root_caches which lists only the root caches. When memcg is not enabled, it becomes just an alias of slab_caches. memcg specific list operations are collected into memcg_[un]link_cache().

mm/slab: sanity-check page type when looking up cache This avoids any possible type confusion when looking up an object. For example, if a non-slab were to be passed to kfree(), the invalid slab_cache pointer (i.e. overlapped with some other value from the struct page union) would be used for subsequent slab manipulations that could lead to further memory corruption. Since the page is already in cache, adding the PageSlab() check will have nearly zero cost, so add a check and WARN() to virt_to_cache(). Additionally replaces an open-coded virt_to_cache(). To support the failure mode this also updates all callers of virt_to_cache() and cache_from_obj() to handle a NULL cache pointer return value (though note that several already handle this case gracefully).

slab: link memcg kmem_caches on their associated memory cgroup With kmem cgroup support enabled, kmem_caches can be created and destroyed frequently and a great number of near empty kmem_caches can accumulate if there are a lot of transient cgroups and the system is not under memory pressure. When memory reclaim starts under such conditions, it can lead to consecutive deactivation and destruction of many kmem_caches, easily hundreds of thousands on moderately large systems, exposing scalability issues in the current slab management code. This is one of the patches to address the issue. While a memcg kmem_cache is listed on its root cache's ->children list, there is no direct way to iterate all kmem_caches which are assocaited with a memory cgroup. The only way to iterate them is walking all caches while filtering out caches which don't match, which would be most of them. This makes memcg destruction operations O(N^2) where N is the total number of slab caches which can be huge. This combined with the synchronous RCU operations can tie up a CPU and affect the whole machine for many hours when memory reclaim triggers offlining and destruction of the stale memcgs. This patch adds mem_cgroup->kmem_caches list which goes through memcg_cache_params->kmem_caches_node of all kmem_caches which are associated with the memcg. All memcg specific iterations, including stat file access, are updated to use the new list instead.

mm: kasan: initial memory quarantine implementation Quarantine isolates freed objects in a separate queue. The objects are returned to the allocator later, which helps to detect use-after-free errors. When the object is freed, its state changes from KASAN_STATE_ALLOC to KASAN_STATE_QUARANTINE. The object is poisoned and put into quarantine instead of being returned to the allocator, therefore every subsequent access to that object triggers a KASAN error, and the error handler is able to say where the object has been allocated and deallocated. When it's time for the object to leave quarantine, its state becomes KASAN_STATE_FREE and it's returned to the allocator. From now on the allocator may reuse it for another allocation. Before that happens, it's still possible to detect a use-after free on that object (it retains the allocation/deallocation stacks). When the allocator reuses this object, the shadow is unpoisoned and old allocation/deallocation stacks are wiped. Therefore a use of this object, even an incorrect one, won't trigger ASan warning. Without the quarantine, it's not guaranteed that the objects aren't reused immediately, that's why the probability of catching a use-after-free is lower than with quarantine in place. Quarantine isolates freed objects in a separate queue. The objects are returned to the allocator later, which helps to detect use-after-free errors. Freed objects are first added to per-cpu quarantine queues. When a cache is destroyed or memory shrinking is requested, the objects are moved into the global quarantine queue. Whenever a kmalloc call allows memory reclaiming, the oldest objects are popped out of the global queue until the total size of objects in quarantine is less than 3/4 of the maximum quarantine size (which is a fraction of installed physical memory). As long as an object remains in the quarantine, KASAN is able to report accesses to it, so the chance of reporting a use-after-free is increased. Once the object leaves quarantine, the allocator may reuse it, in which case the object is unpoisoned and KASAN can't detect incorrect accesses to it. Right now quarantine support is only enabled in SLAB allocator. Unification of KASAN features in SLAB and SLUB will be done later. This patch is based on the "mm: kasan: quarantine" patch originally prepared by Dmitry Chernenkov. A number of improvements have been suggested by Andrey Ryabinin.

mm: reorganize SLAB freelist randomization The kernel heap allocators are using a sequential freelist making their allocation predictable. This predictability makes kernel heap overflow easier to exploit. An attacker can careful prepare the kernel heap to control the following chunk overflowed. For example these attacks exploit the predictability of the heap: - Linux Kernel CAN SLUB overflow (https://goo.gl/oMNWkU) - Exploiting Linux Kernel Heap corruptions (http://goo.gl/EXLn95) ***Problems that needed solving: - Randomize the Freelist (singled linked) used in the SLUB allocator. - Ensure good performance to encourage usage. - Get best entropy in early boot stage. ***Parts: - 01/02 Reorganize the SLAB Freelist randomization to share elements with the SLUB implementation. - 02/02 The SLUB Freelist randomization implementation. Similar approach than the SLAB but tailored to the singled freelist used in SLUB. ***Performance data: slab_test impact is between 3% to 4% on average for 100000 attempts without smp. It is a very focused testing, kernbench show the overall impact on the system is way lower. Before: Single thread testing ===================== 1.

It moves functions that will be shared to slab_common. The entropy functions are changed to align with the SLUB implementation, now using get_random_(int|long) functions. These functions were chosen because they provide a bit more entropy early on boot and better performance when specific arch instructions are not available.
