Patch series "mm: remove quicklist page table caches".
A while ago Nicholas proposed to remove quicklist page table caches [1].
I've rebased his patch on the curren upstream and switched ia64 and sh to
use generic versions of PTE allocation.
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20190711030339.20892-1-npiggin@gmail.com
This patch (of 3):
Remove page table allocator "quicklists". These have been around for a
long time, but have not got much traction in the last decade and are only
used on ia64 and sh architectures.
The numbers in the initial commit look interesting but probably don't
apply anymore. If anybody wants to resurrect this it's in the git
history, but it's unhelpful to have this code and divergent allocator
behaviour for minor archs.
Also it might be better to instead make more general improvements to page
allocator if this is still so slow.

This is more cleanup and consolidation of the hmm APIs and the very
strongly related mmu_notifier interfaces. Many places across the tree
using these interfaces are touched in the process. Beyond that a cleanup
to the page walker API and a few memremap related changes round out the
series:
- General improvement of hmm_range_fault() and related APIs, more
documentation, bug fixes from testing, API simplification &
consolidation, and unused API removal
- Simplify the hmm related kconfigs to HMM_MIRROR and DEVICE_PRIVATE, and
make them internal kconfig selects
- Hoist a lot of code related to mmu notifier attachment out of drivers by
using a refcount get/put attachment idiom and remove the convoluted
mmu_notifier_unregister_no_release() and related APIs.
- General API improvement for the migrate_vma API and revision of its only
user in nouveau
- Annotate mmu_notifiers with lockdep and sleeping region debugging
Two series unrelated to HMM or mmu_notifiers came along due to
dependencies:
- Allow pagemap's memremap_pages family of APIs to work without providing
a struct device
- Make walk_page_range() and related use a constant structure for function
pointers

Secure Encrypted Virtualization is an x86-specific feature, so it shouldn't
appear in generic kernel code because it forces non-x86 architectures to
define the sev_active() function, which doesn't make a lot of sense.
To solve this problem, add an x86 elfcorehdr_read() function to override
the generic weak implementation. To do that, it's necessary to make
read_from_oldmem() public so that it can be used outside of vmcore.c.
Also, remove the export for sev_active() since it's only used in files that
won't be built as modules.

In the sysctl code the proc_dointvec_minmax() function is often used to
validate the user supplied value between an allowed range. This
function uses the extra1 and extra2 members from struct ctl_table as
minimum and maximum allowed value.
On sysctl handler declaration, in every source file there are some
readonly variables containing just an integer which address is assigned
to the extra1 and extra2 members, so the sysctl range is enforced.
The special values 0, 1 and INT_MAX are very often used as range
boundary, leading duplication of variables like zero=0, one=1,
int_max=INT_MAX in different source files:
$ git grep -E '\.extra[12].*&(zero|one|int_max)' |wc -l
248
Add a const int array containing the most commonly used values, some
macros to refer more easily to the correct array member, and use them
instead of creating a local one for every object file.

Commit 7635d9cbe8 ("mm, thp, proc: report THP eligibility for each
vma") introduced THPeligible bit for processes' smaps. But, when
checking the eligibility for shmem vma, __transparent_hugepage_enabled()
is called to override the result from shmem_huge_enabled(). It may
result in the anonymous vma's THP flag override shmem's. For example,
running a simple test which create THP for shmem, but with anonymous THP
disabled, when reading the process's smaps, it may show:
7fc92ec00000-7fc92f000000 rw-s 00000000 00:14 27764 /dev/shm/test
Size: 4096 kB
...
[snip]
...
ShmemPmdMapped: 4096 kB
...
[snip]
...
THPeligible: 0
And, /proc/meminfo does show THP allocated and PMD mapped too:
ShmemHugePages: 4096 kB
ShmemPmdMapped: 4096 kB
This doesn't make too much sense. The shmem objects should be treated
separately from anonymous THP. Calling shmem_huge_enabled() with
checking MMF_DISABLE_THP sounds good enough. And, we could skip stack
and dax vma check since we already checked if the vma is shmem already.
Also check if vma is suitable for THP by calling
transhuge_vma_suitable().
And minor fix to smaps output format and documentation.

Normally, the inode's i_uid/i_gid are translated relative to s_user_ns,
but this is not a correct behavior for proc. Since sysctl permission
check in test_perm is done against GLOBAL_ROOT_[UG]ID, it makes more
sense to use these values in u_[ug]id of proc inodes. In other words:
although uid/gid in the inode is not read during test_perm, the inode
logically belongs to the root of the namespace. I have confirmed this
with Eric Biederman at LPC and in this thread:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/87k1kzjdff.fsf@xmission.com
Consequences
============
Since the i_[ug]id values of proc nodes are not used for permissions
checks, this change usually makes no functional difference. However, it
causes an issue in a setup where:
* a namespace container is created without root user in container -
hence the i_[ug]id of proc nodes are set to INVALID_[UG]ID
* container creator tries to configure it by writing /proc/sys files,
e.g. writing /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax to configure shared memory limit
Kernel does not allow to open an inode for writing if its i_[ug]id are
invalid, making it impossible to write shmmax and thus - configure the
container.
Using a container with no root mapping is apparently rare, but we do use
this configuration at Google. Also, we use a generic tool to configure
the container limits, and the inability to write any of them causes a
failure.
History
=======
The invalid uids/gids in inodes first appeared due to 8175435777 (fs:
Update i_[ug]id_(read|write) to translate relative to s_user_ns).
However, AFAIK, this did not immediately cause any issues. The
inability to write to these "invalid" inodes was only caused by a later
commit 0bd23d09b8 (vfs: Don't modify inodes with a uid or gid unknown
to the vfs).
Tested: Used a repro program that creates a user namespace without any
mapping and stat'ed /proc/$PID/root/proc/sys/kernel/shmmax from outside.
Before the change, it shows the overflow uid, with the change it's 0.
The overflow uid indicates that the uid in the inode is not correct and
thus it is not possible to open the file for writing.

Don't repeat function signatures twice.
This is a kind-of-precursor for "struct proc_ops".
Note:
typeof(pde->proc_fops->...) ...;
can't be used because ->proc_fops is "const struct file_operations *".
"const" prevents assignment down the code and it can't be deleted in the

Since commit 2724273e8f ("vmcore: add API to collect hardware dump in
second kernel"), drivers are allowed to add device related dump data to
vmcore as they want by using the device dump API. This has a potential
issue, the data is stored in memory, drivers may append too much data
and use too much memory. The vmcore is typically used in a kdump kernel
which runs in a pre-reserved small chunk of memory. So as a result it
will make kdump unusable at all due to OOM issues.
So introduce new 'novmcoredd' command line option. User can disable
device dump to reduce memory usage. This is helpful if device dump is
using too much memory, disabling device dump could make sure a regular
vmcore without device dump data is still available.

This fixes two problems reported with the cmdline simplification and
cleanup last year:
- the setproctitle() special cases didn't quite match the original
semantics, and it can be noticeable:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/alpine.LNX.2.21.1904052326230.3249@kich.toxcorp.com/
- it could leak an uninitialized byte from the temporary buffer under
the right (wrong) circustances:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20190712160913.17727-1-izbyshev@ispras.ru/
It rewrites the logic entirely, splitting it into two separate commits
(and two separate functions) for the two different cases ("unedited
cmdline" vs "setproctitle() has been used to change the command line").
* proc-cmdline:
/proc/<pid>/cmdline: add back the setproctitle() special case
/proc/<pid>/cmdline: remove all the special cases
This makes the setproctitle() special case very explicit indeed, and
handles it with a separate helper function entirely. In the process, it
re-instates the original semantics of simply stopping at the first NUL
character when the original last NUL character is no longer there.
[ The original semantics can still be seen in mm/util.c: get_cmdline()
that is limited to a fixed-size buffer ]
This makes the logic about when we use the string lengths etc much more
obvious, and makes it easier to see what we do and what the two very
different cases are.
Note that even when we allow walking past the end of the argument array
(because the setproctitle() might have overwritten and overflowed the
original argv[] strings), we only allow it when it overflows into the
environment region if it is immediately adjacent.
[ Fixed for missing 'count' checks noted by Alexey Izbyshev ]

Start off with a clean slate that only reads exactly from arg_start to
arg_end, without any oddities. This simplifies the code and in the
process removes the case that caused us to potentially leak an
uninitialized byte from the temporary kernel buffer.
Note that in order to start from scratch with an understandable base,
this simplifies things _too_ much, and removes all the legacy logic to
handle setproctitle() having changed the argument strings.
We'll add back those special cases very differently in the next commit.

oom_unkillable_task() can be called from three different contexts i.e.
global OOM, memcg OOM and oom_score procfs interface. At the moment
oom_unkillable_task() does a task_in_mem_cgroup() check on the given
process. Since there is no reason to perform task_in_mem_cgroup()
check for global OOM and oom_score procfs interface, those contexts
provide NULL memcg and skips the task_in_mem_cgroup() check. However
for memcg OOM context, the oom_unkillable_task() is always called from
mem_cgroup_scan_tasks() and thus task_in_mem_cgroup() check becomes
redundant and effectively dead code. So, just remove the
task_in_mem_cgroup() check altogether.

Vmalloc() is getting more and more used these days (kernel stacks, bpf and
percpu allocator are new top users), and the total % of memory consumed by
vmalloc() can be pretty significant and changes dynamically.
/proc/meminfo is the best place to display this information: its top goal
is to show top consumers of the memory.
Since the VmallocUsed field in /proc/meminfo is not in use for quite a
long time (it has been defined to 0 by a5ad88ce8c ("mm: get rid of
'vmalloc_info' from /proc/meminfo")), let's reuse it for showing the
actual physical memory consumption of vmalloc().

Report separate components (anon, file, and shmem) for PSS in
smaps_rollup.
This helps understand and tune the memory manager behavior in consumer
devices, particularly mobile devices. Many of them (e.g. chromebooks and
Android-based devices) use zram for anon memory, and perform disk reads
for discarded file pages. The difference in latency is large (e.g.
reading a single page from SSD is 30 times slower than decompressing a
zram page on one popular device), thus it is useful to know how much of
the PSS is anon vs. file.
All the information is already present in /proc/pid/smaps, but much more
expensive to obtain because of the large size of that procfs entry.
This patch also removes a small code duplication in smaps_account, which
would have gotten worse otherwise.
Also updated Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt (the smaps section was a
bit stale, and I added a smaps_rollup section) and
Documentation/ABI/testing/procfs-smaps_rollup.

0a1eb2d474 ("fs/proc: Stop reporting eip and esp in /proc/PID/stat")
stopped reporting eip/esp and fd7d56270b ("fs/proc: Report eip/esp in
/prod/PID/stat for coredumping") reintroduced the feature to fix a
regression with userspace core dump handlers (such as minicoredumper).
Because PF_DUMPCORE is only set for the primary thread, this didn't fix
the original problem for secondary threads. Allow reporting the eip/esp
for all threads by checking for PF_EXITING as well. This is set for all
the other threads when they are killed. coredump_wait() waits for all the
tasks to become inactive before proceeding to invoke a core dumper.

In the kdump kernel, the memory of the first kernel gets to be dumped
into a vmcore file.
Similarly to SME kdump, if SEV was enabled in the first kernel, the old
memory has to be remapped encrypted in order to access it properly.
Commit
992b649a3f ("kdump, proc/vmcore: Enable kdumping encrypted memory with SME enabled")
took care of the SME case but it uses sme_active() which checks for SME
only. Use mem_encrypt_active() instead, which returns true when either
SME or SEV is active.
Unlike SME, the second kernel images (kernel and initrd) are loaded into
encrypted memory when SEV is active, hence the kernel elf header must be
remapped as encrypted in order to access it properly.

Exposing architecture specific per process information is useful for
various reasons. An example is the AVX512 usage on x86 which is important
for task placement for power/performance optimizations.
Adding this information to the existing /prcc/pid/status file would be the
obvious choise, but it has been agreed on that a explicit arch_status file
is better in separating the generic and architecture specific information.

In commit:
4b53a3412d ("sched/core: Remove the tsk_nr_cpus_allowed() wrapper")
the tsk_nr_cpus_allowed() wrapper was removed. There was not
much difference in !RT but in RT we used this to implement
migrate_disable(). Within a migrate_disable() section the CPU mask is
restricted to single CPU while the "normal" CPU mask remains untouched.
As an alternative implementation Ingo suggested to use:
struct task_struct {
const cpumask_t *cpus_ptr;
cpumask_t cpus_mask;
};
with
t->cpus_ptr = &t->cpus_mask;
In -RT we then can switch the cpus_ptr to:
t->cpus_ptr = &cpumask_of(task_cpu(p));
in a migration disabled region. The rules are simple:
- Code that 'uses' ->cpus_allowed would use the pointer.
- Code that 'modifies' ->cpus_allowed would use the direct mask.

Proc filesystem has special locking rules for various files. Thus
fanotify which opens files on event delivery can easily deadlock
against another process that waits for fanotify permission event to be

CPU page table update can happens for many reasons, not only as a result
of a syscall (munmap(), mprotect(), mremap(), madvise(), ...) but also as
a result of kernel activities (memory compression, reclaim, migration,
...).
Users of mmu notifier API track changes to the CPU page table and take
specific action for them. While current API only provide range of virtual
address affected by the change, not why the changes is happening.
This patchset do the initial mechanical convertion of all the places that
calls mmu_notifier_range_init to also provide the default MMU_NOTIFY_UNMAP
event as well as the vma if it is know (most invalidation happens against
a given vma). Passing down the vma allows the users of mmu notifier to
inspect the new vma page protection.
The MMU_NOTIFY_UNMAP is always the safe default as users of mmu notifier
should assume that every for the range is going away when that event
happens. A latter patch do convert mm call path to use a more appropriate
events for each call.
This is done as 2 patches so that no call site is forgotten especialy
as it uses this following coccinelle patch:

Pull stack trace updates from Ingo Molnar:
"So Thomas looked at the stacktrace code recently and noticed a few
weirdnesses, and we all know how such stories of crummy kernel code
meeting German engineering perfection end: a 45-patch series to clean
it all up! :-)
Here's the changes in Thomas's words:
'Struct stack_trace is a sinkhole for input and output parameters
which is largely pointless for most usage sites. In fact if embedded
into other data structures it creates indirections and extra storage
overhead for no benefit.
Looking at all usage sites makes it clear that they just require an
interface which is based on a storage array. That array is either on
stack, global or embedded into some other data structure.
Some of the stack depot usage sites are outright wrong, but
fortunately the wrongness just causes more stack being used for
nothing and does not have functional impact.
Another oddity is the inconsistent termination of the stack trace
with ULONG_MAX. It's pointless as the number of entries is what
determines the length of the stored trace. In fact quite some call
sites remove the ULONG_MAX marker afterwards with or without nasty
comments about it. Not all architectures do that and those which do,
do it inconsistenly either conditional on nr_entries == 0 or
unconditionally.
The following series cleans that up by:
1) Removing the ULONG_MAX termination in the architecture code
2) Removing the ULONG_MAX fixups at the call sites
3) Providing plain storage array based interfaces for stacktrace
and stackdepot.
4) Cleaning up the mess at the callsites including some related
cleanups.
5) Removing the struct stack_trace based interfaces
This is not changing the struct stack_trace interfaces at the
architecture level, but it removes the exposure to the generic
code'"

The core dumping code has always run without holding the mmap_sem for
writing, despite that is the only way to ensure that the entire vma
layout will not change from under it. Only using some signal
serialization on the processes belonging to the mm is not nearly enough.
This was pointed out earlier. For example in Hugh's post from Jul 2017:
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/alpine.LSU.2.11.1707191716030.2055@eggly.anvils
"Not strictly relevant here, but a related note: I was very surprised
to discover, only quite recently, how handle_mm_fault() may be called
without down_read(mmap_sem) - when core dumping. That seems a
misguided optimization to me, which would also be nice to correct"
In particular because the growsdown and growsup can move the
vm_start/vm_end the various loops the core dump does around the vma will
not be consistent if page faults can happen concurrently.
Pretty much all users calling mmget_not_zero()/get_task_mm() and then
taking the mmap_sem had the potential to introduce unexpected side
effects in the core dumping code.
Adding mmap_sem for writing around the ->core_dump invocation is a
viable long term fix, but it requires removing all copy user and page
faults and to replace them with get_dump_page() for all binary formats
which is not suitable as a short term fix.
For the time being this solution manually covers the places that can
confuse the core dump either by altering the vma layout or the vma flags
while it runs. Once ->core_dump runs under mmap_sem for writing the
function mmget_still_valid() can be dropped.
Allowing mmap_sem protected sections to run in parallel with the
coredump provides some minor parallelism advantage to the swapoff code
(which seems to be safe enough by never mangling any vma field and can
keep doing swapins in parallel to the core dumping) and to some other
corner case.
In order to facilitate the backporting I added "Fixes: 86039bd3b4e6"
however the side effect of this same race condition in /proc/pid/mem
should be reproducible since before 2.6.12-rc2 so I couldn't add any
other "Fixes:" because there's no hash beyond the git genesis commit.
Because find_extend_vma() is the only location outside of the process
context that could modify the "mm" structures under mmap_sem for
reading, by adding the mmget_still_valid() check to it, all other cases
that take the mmap_sem for reading don't need the new check after
mmget_not_zero()/get_task_mm(). The expand_stack() in page fault
context also doesn't need the new check, because all tasks under core
dumping are frozen.

Add file_pos field to bpf_sysctl context to read and write sysctl file
position at which sysctl is being accessed (read or written).
The field can be used to e.g. override whole sysctl value on write to
sysctl even when sys_write is called by user space with file_pos > 0. Or
BPF program may reject such accesses.

Add helpers to work with new value being written to sysctl by user
space.
bpf_sysctl_get_new_value() copies value being written to sysctl into
provided buffer.
bpf_sysctl_set_new_value() overrides new value being written by user
space with a one from provided buffer. Buffer should contain string
representation of the value, similar to what can be seen in /proc/sys/.
Both helpers can be used only on sysctl write.
File position matters and can be managed by an interface that will be
introduced separately. E.g. if user space calls sys_write to a file in
/proc/sys/ at file position = X, where X > 0, then the value set by
bpf_sysctl_set_new_value() will be written starting from X. If program
wants to override whole value with specified buffer, file position has
to be set to zero.
Documentation for the new helpers is provided in bpf.h UAPI.

Containerized applications may run as root and it may create problems
for whole host. Specifically such applications may change a sysctl and
affect applications in other containers.
Furthermore in existing infrastructure it may not be possible to just
completely disable writing to sysctl, instead such a process should be
gradual with ability to log what sysctl are being changed by a
container, investigate, limit the set of writable sysctl to currently
used ones (so that new ones can not be changed) and eventually reduce
this set to zero.
The patch introduces new program type BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SYSCTL and
attach type BPF_CGROUP_SYSCTL to solve these problems on cgroup basis.
New program type has access to following minimal context:
struct bpf_sysctl {
__u32 write;
};
Where @write indicates whether sysctl is being read (= 0) or written (=
1).
Helpers to access sysctl name and value will be introduced separately.
BPF_CGROUP_SYSCTL attach point is added to sysctl code right before
passing control to ctl_table->proc_handler so that BPF program can
either allow or deny access to sysctl.

task_current_syscall() has a single user that passes in 6 for maxargs, which
is the maximum arguments that can be used to get system calls from
syscall_get_arguments(). Instead of passing in a number of arguments to
grab, just get 6 arguments. The args argument even specifies that it's an
array of 6 items.
This will also allow changing syscall_get_arguments() to not get a variable
number of arguments, but always grab 6.
Linus also suggested not passing in a bunch of arguments to
task_current_syscall() but to instead pass in a pointer to a structure, and
just fill the structure. struct seccomp_data has almost all the parameters
that is needed except for the stack pointer (sp). As seccomp_data is part of
uapi, and I'm afraid to change it, a new structure was created
"syscall_info", which includes seccomp_data and adds the "sp" field.

On machines where the GART aperture is mapped over physical RAM,
/proc/kcore contains the GART aperture range. Accessing the GART range via
/proc/kcore results in a kernel crash.
vmcore used to have the same issue, until it was fixed with commit
2a3e83c6f9 ("x86/gart: Exclude GART aperture from vmcore")', leveraging
existing hook infrastructure in vmcore to let /proc/vmcore return zeroes
when attempting to read the aperture region, and so it won't read from the
actual memory.
Apply the same workaround for kcore. First implement the same hook
infrastructure for kcore, then reuse the hook functions introduced in the
previous vmcore fix. Just with some minor adjustment, rename some functions
for more general usage, and simplify the hook infrastructure a bit as there
is no module usage yet.

Merge tag 'pidfd-v5.1-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux
Pull pidfd system call from Christian Brauner:
"This introduces the ability to use file descriptors from /proc/<pid>/
as stable handles on struct pid. Even if a pid is recycled the handle
will not change. For a start these fds can be used to send signals to
the processes they refer to.
With the ability to use /proc/<pid> fds as stable handles on struct
pid we can fix a long-standing issue where after a process has exited
its pid can be reused by another process. If a caller sends a signal
to a reused pid it will end up signaling the wrong process.
With this patchset we enable a variety of use cases. One obvious
example is that we can now safely delegate an important part of
process management - sending signals - to processes other than the
parent of a given process by sending file descriptors around via scm
rights and not fearing that the given process will have been recycled
in the meantime. It also allows for easy testing whether a given
process is still alive or not by sending signal 0 to a pidfd which is
quite handy.
There has been some interest in this feature e.g. from systems
management (systemd, glibc) and container managers. I have requested
and gotten comments from glibc to make sure that this syscall is
suitable for their needs as well. In the future I expect it to take on
most other pid-based signal syscalls. But such features are left for
the future once they are needed.
This has been sitting in linux-next for quite a while and has not
caused any issues. It comes with selftests which verify basic
functionality and also test that a recycled pid cannot be signaled via
a pidfd.
Jon has written about a prior version of this patchset. It should
cover the basic functionality since not a lot has changed since then:
https://lwn.net/Articles/773459/

the syscall, including it's functionality and extensibility"

Pull vfs mount infrastructure updates from Al Viro:
"The rest of core infrastructure; no new syscalls in that pile, but the
old parts are switched to new infrastructure. At that point
conversions of individual filesystems can happen independently; some
are done here (afs, cgroup, procfs, etc.), there's also a large series
outside of that pile dealing with NFS (quite a bit of option-parsing
stuff is getting used there - it's one of the most convoluted
filesystems in terms of mount-related logics), but NFS bits are the
next cycle fodder.
It got seriously simplified since the last cycle; documentation is
probably the weakest bit at the moment - I considered dropping the
commit introducing Documentation/filesystems/mount_api.txt (cutting
the size increase by quarter ;-), but decided that it would be better
to fix it up after -rc1 instead.
That pile allows to do followup work in independent branches, which
should make life much easier for the next cycle. fs/super.c size
increase is unpleasant; there's a followup series that allows to
shrink it considerably, but I decided to leave that until the next
cycle"

Pull security subsystem updates from James Morris:
- Extend LSM stacking to allow sharing of cred, file, ipc, inode, and
task blobs. This paves the way for more full-featured LSMs to be
merged, and is specifically aimed at LandLock and SARA LSMs. This
work is from Casey and Kees.
- There's a new LSM from Micah Morton: "SafeSetID gates the setid
family of syscalls to restrict UID/GID transitions from a given
UID/GID to only those approved by a system-wide whitelist." This

PG_balloon was introduced to implement page migration/compaction for
pages inflated in virtio-balloon. Nowadays, it is only a marker that a
page is part of virtio-balloon and therefore logically offline.
We also want to make use of this flag in other balloon drivers - for
inflated pages or when onlining a section but keeping some pages offline
(e.g. used right now by XEN and Hyper-V via set_online_page_callback()).
We are going to expose this flag to dump tools like makedumpfile. But
instead of exposing PG_balloon, let's generalize the concept of marking
pages as logically offline, so it can be reused for other purposes later
on.
Rename PG_balloon to PG_offline. This is an indicator that the page is
logically offline, the content stale and that it should not be touched
(e.g. a hypervisor would have to allocate backing storage in order for
the guest to dump an unused page). We can then e.g. exclude such pages
from dumps.
We replace and reuse KPF_BALLOON (23), as this shouldn't really harm
(and for now the semantics stay the same). In following patches, we
will make use of this bit also in other balloon drivers. While at it,
document PGTABLE.

The kill() syscall operates on process identifiers (pid). After a process
has exited its pid can be reused by another process. If a caller sends a
signal to a reused pid it will end up signaling the wrong process. This
issue has often surfaced and there has been a push to address this problem [1].
This patch uses file descriptors (fd) from proc/<pid> as stable handles on
struct pid. Even if a pid is recycled the handle will not change. The fd
can be used to send signals to the process it refers to.
Thus, the new syscall pidfd_send_signal() is introduced to solve this
problem. Instead of pids it operates on process fds (pidfd).
/* prototype and argument /*
long pidfd_send_signal(int pidfd, int sig, siginfo_t *info, unsigned int flags);
/* syscall number 424 */
The syscall number was chosen to be 424 to align with Arnd's rework in his
y2038 to minimize merge conflicts (cf. [25]).
In addition to the pidfd and signal argument it takes an additional
siginfo_t and flags argument. If the siginfo_t argument is NULL then
pidfd_send_signal() is equivalent to kill(<positive-pid>, <signal>). If it
is not NULL pidfd_send_signal() is equivalent to rt_sigqueueinfo().
The flags argument is added to allow for future extensions of this syscall.
It currently needs to be passed as 0. Failing to do so will cause EINVAL.
/* pidfd_send_signal() replaces multiple pid-based syscalls */
The pidfd_send_signal() syscall currently takes on the job of
rt_sigqueueinfo(2) and parts of the functionality of kill(2), Namely, when a
positive pid is passed to kill(2). It will however be possible to also
replace tgkill(2) and rt_tgsigqueueinfo(2) if this syscall is extended.
/* sending signals to threads (tid) and process groups (pgid) */
Specifically, the pidfd_send_signal() syscall does currently not operate on
process groups or threads. This is left for future extensions.
In order to extend the syscall to allow sending signal to threads and
process groups appropriately named flags (e.g. PIDFD_TYPE_PGID, and
PIDFD_TYPE_TID) should be added. This implies that the flags argument will
determine what is signaled and not the file descriptor itself. Put in other
words, grouping in this api is a property of the flags argument not a
property of the file descriptor (cf. [13]). Clarification for this has been
requested by Eric (cf. [19]).
When appropriate extensions through the flags argument are added then
pidfd_send_signal() can additionally replace the part of kill(2) which
operates on process groups as well as the tgkill(2) and
rt_tgsigqueueinfo(2) syscalls.
How such an extension could be implemented has been very roughly sketched
in [14], [15], and [16]. However, this should not be taken as a commitment
to a particular implementation. There might be better ways to do it.
Right now this is intentionally left out to keep this patchset as simple as
possible (cf. [4]).
/* naming */
The syscall had various names throughout iterations of this patchset:
- procfd_signal()
- procfd_send_signal()
- taskfd_send_signal()
In the last round of reviews it was pointed out that given that if the
flags argument decides the scope of the signal instead of different types
of fds it might make sense to either settle for "procfd_" or "pidfd_" as
prefix. The community was willing to accept either (cf. [17] and [18]).
Given that one developer expressed strong preference for the "pidfd_"
prefix (cf. [13]) and with other developers less opinionated about the name
we should settle for "pidfd_" to avoid further bikeshedding.
The "_send_signal" suffix was chosen to reflect the fact that the syscall
takes on the job of multiple syscalls. It is therefore intentional that the
name is not reminiscent of neither kill(2) nor rt_sigqueueinfo(2). Not the
fomer because it might imply that pidfd_send_signal() is a replacement for
kill(2), and not the latter because it is a hassle to remember the correct
spelling - especially for non-native speakers - and because it is not
descriptive enough of what the syscall actually does. The name
"pidfd_send_signal" makes it very clear that its job is to send signals.
/* zombies */
Zombies can be signaled just as any other process. No special error will be
reported since a zombie state is an unreliable state (cf. [3]). However,
this can be added as an extension through the @flags argument if the need
ever arises.
/* cross-namespace signals */
The patch currently enforces that the signaler and signalee either are in
the same pid namespace or that the signaler's pid namespace is an ancestor
of the signalee's pid namespace. This is done for the sake of simplicity
and because it is unclear to what values certain members of struct
siginfo_t would need to be set to (cf. [5], [6]).
/* compat syscalls */
It became clear that we would like to avoid adding compat syscalls
(cf. [7]). The compat syscall handling is now done in kernel/signal.c
itself by adding __copy_siginfo_from_user_generic() which lets us avoid
compat syscalls (cf. [8]). It should be noted that the addition of
__copy_siginfo_from_user_any() is caused by a bug in the original
implementation of rt_sigqueueinfo(2) (cf. 12).
With upcoming rework for syscall handling things might improve
significantly (cf. [11]) and __copy_siginfo_from_user_any() will not gain
any additional callers.
/* testing */
This patch was tested on x64 and x86.
/* userspace usage */

Q-01: (Florian Weimer [20], Andrew Morton [21])
What happens when the target process has exited?
A-01: Sending the signal will fail with ESRCH (cf. [22]).
Q-02: (Andrew Morton [21])
Is the task_struct pinned by the fd?
A-02: No. A reference to struct pid is kept. struct pid - as far as I
understand - was created exactly for the reason to not require to
pin struct task_struct (cf. [22]).
Q-03: (Andrew Morton [21])
Does the entire procfs directory remain visible? Just one entry
within it?
A-03: The same thing that happens right now when you hold a file descriptor
to /proc/<pid> open (cf. [22]).
Q-04: (Andrew Morton [21])
Does the pid remain reserved?
A-04: No. This patchset guarantees a stable handle not that pids are not
recycled (cf. [22]).
Q-05: (Andrew Morton [21])
Do attempts to signal that fd return errors?
A-05: See {Q,A}-01.
Q-06: (Andrew Morton [22])
Is there a cleaner way of obtaining the fd? Another syscall perhaps.
A-06: Userspace can already trivially retrieve file descriptors from procfs
so this is something that we will need to support anyway. Hence,
there's no immediate need to add another syscalls just to make
pidfd_send_signal() not dependent on the presence of procfs. However,
adding a syscalls to get such file descriptors is planned for a
future patchset (cf. [22]).
Q-07: (Andrew Morton [21] and others)
This fd-for-a-process sounds like a handy thing and people may well
think up other uses for it in the future, probably unrelated to
signals. Are the code and the interface designed to permit such
future applications?
A-07: Yes (cf. [22]).
Q-08: (Andrew Morton [21] and others)
Now I think about it, why a new syscall? This thing is looking
rather like an ioctl?
A-08: This has been extensively discussed. It was agreed that a syscall is
preferred for a variety or reasons. Here are just a few taken from
prior threads. Syscalls are safer than ioctl()s especially when
signaling to fds. Processes are a core kernel concept so a syscall
seems more appropriate. The layout of the syscall with its four
arguments would require the addition of a custom struct for the
ioctl() thereby causing at least the same amount or even more
complexity for userspace than a simple syscall. The new syscall will
replace multiple other pid-based syscalls (see description above).
The file-descriptors-for-processes concept introduced with this
syscall will be extended with other syscalls in the future. See also
[22], [23] and various other threads already linked in here.
Q-09: (Florian Weimer [24])
What happens if you use the new interface with an O_PATH descriptor?
A-09:
pidfds opened as O_PATH fds cannot be used to send signals to a
process (cf. [2]). Signaling processes through pidfds is the
equivalent of writing to a file. Thus, this is not an operation that
operates "purely at the file descriptor level" as required by the
open(2) manpage. See also [4].

Tetsuo has reported that creating a thousands of processes sharing MM
without SIGHAND (aka alien threads) and setting
/proc/<pid>/oom_score_adj will swamp the kernel log and takes ages [1]
to finish. This is especially worrisome that all that printing is done
under RCU lock and this can potentially trigger RCU stall or softlockup
detector.
The primary reason for the printk was to catch potential users who might
depend on the behavior prior to 44a70adec9 ("mm, oom_adj: make sure
processes sharing mm have same view of oom_score_adj") but after more
than 2 years without a single report I guess it is safe to simply remove
the printk altogether.
The next step should be moving oom_score_adj over to the mm struct and
remove all the tasks crawling as suggested by [2]

The 'pss_locked' field of smaps_rollup was being calculated incorrectly.
It accumulated the current pss everytime a locked VMA was found. Fix
that by adding to 'pss_locked' the same time as that of 'pss' if the vma
being walked is locked.

Waiman reported that on large systems with a large amount of interrupts the
readout of /proc/stat takes a long time to sum up the interrupt
statistics. In principle this is not a problem. but for unknown reasons
some enterprise quality software reads /proc/stat with a high frequency.
The reason for this is that interrupt statistics are accounted per cpu. So
the /proc/stat logic has to sum up the interrupt stats for each interrupt.
The interrupt core provides now a per interrupt summary counter which can
be used to avoid the summation loops completely except for interrupts
marked PER_CPU which are only a small fraction of the interrupt space if at
all.
Another simplification is to iterate only over the active interrupts and
skip the potentially large gaps in the interrupt number space and just
print zeros for the gaps without going into the interrupt core in the first
place.
Waiman provided test results from a 4-socket IvyBridge-EX system (60-core
120-thread, 3016 irqs) excuting a test program which reads /proc/stat
50,000 times:
Before: 18.436s (sys 18.380s)
After: 3.769s (sys 3.742s)

Taking a sleeping lock to _only_ increment a variable is quite the
overkill, and pretty much all users do this. Furthermore, some drivers
(ie: infiniband and scif) that need pinned semantics can go to quite
some trouble to actually delay via workqueue (un)accounting for pinned
pages when not possible to acquire it.
By making the counter atomic we no longer need to hold the mmap_sem and
can simply some code around it for pinned_vm users. The counter is 64-bit
such that we need not worry about overflows such as rdma user input
controlled from userspace.

atomic_t variables are currently used to implement reference
counters with the following properties:
- counter is initialized to 1 using atomic_set()
- a resource is freed upon counter reaching zero
- once counter reaches zero, its further
increments aren't allowed
- counter schema uses basic atomic operations
(set, inc, inc_not_zero, dec_and_test, etc.)
Such atomic variables should be converted to a newly provided
refcount_t type and API that prevents accidental counter overflows
and underflows. This is important since overflows and underflows
can lead to use-after-free situation and be exploitable.
The variable sighand_struct.count is used as pure reference counter.
Convert it to refcount_t and fix up the operations.
** Important note for maintainers:
Some functions from refcount_t API defined in lib/refcount.c
have different memory ordering guarantees than their atomic
counterparts.
The full comparison can be seen in
https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/15/57 and it is hopefully soon
in state to be merged to the documentation tree.
Normally the differences should not matter since refcount_t provides
enough guarantees to satisfy the refcounting use cases, but in
some rare cases it might matter.
Please double check that you don't have some undocumented
memory guarantees for this variable usage.
For the sighand_struct.count it might make a difference
in following places:
- __cleanup_sighand: decrement in refcount_dec_and_test() only
provides RELEASE ordering and control dependency on success
vs. fully ordered atomic counterpart
