2019-06-03mm: kmemleak: no need to check return value of debugfs_create functionsGreg Kroah-Hartman
When calling debugfs functions, there is no need to ever check the return value. The function can work or not, but the code logic should never do something different based on this.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip 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'" * 'core-stacktrace-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (45 commits) x86/stacktrace: Use common infrastructure stacktrace: Provide common infrastructure lib/stackdepot: Remove obsolete functions stacktrace: Remove obsolete functions livepatch: Simplify stack trace retrieval tracing: Remove the last struct stack_trace usage tracing: Simplify stack trace retrieval tracing: Make ftrace_trace_userstack() static and conditional tracing: Use percpu stack trace buffer more intelligently tracing: Simplify stacktrace retrieval in histograms lockdep: Simplify stack trace handling lockdep: Remove save argument from check_prev_add() lockdep: Remove unused trace argument from print_circular_bug() drm: Simplify stacktrace handling dm persistent data: Simplify stack trace handling dm bufio: Simplify stack trace retrieval btrfs: ref-verify: Simplify stack trace retrieval dma/debug: Simplify stracktrace retrieval fault-inject: Simplify stacktrace retrieval mm/page_owner: Simplify stack trace handling ...

2019-04-05kmemleak: powerpc: skip scanning holes in the .bss sectionCatalin Marinas
Commit 2d4f567103ff ("KVM: PPC: Introduce kvm_tmp framework") adds kvm_tmp[] into the .bss section and then free the rest of unused spaces back to the page allocator. kernel_init kvm_guest_init kvm_free_tmp free_reserved_area free_unref_page free_unref_page_prepare With DEBUG_PAGEALLOC=y, it will unmap those pages from kernel. As the result, kmemleak scan will trigger a panic when it scans the .bss section with unmapped pages. This patch creates dedicated kmemleak objects for the .data, .bss and potentially .data..ro_after_init sections to allow partial freeing via the kmemleak_free_part() in the powerpc kvm_free_tmp() function.

2019-02-21kmemleak: account for tagged pointers when calculating pointer rangeAndrey Konovalov
kmemleak keeps two global variables, min_addr and max_addr, which store the range of valid (encountered by kmemleak) pointer values, which it later uses to speed up pointer lookup when scanning blocks. With tagged pointers this range will get bigger than it needs to be. This patch makes kmemleak untag pointers before saving them to min_addr and max_addr and when performing a lookup.

2018-12-28mm, kmemleak: little optimization while scanningOscar Salvador
kmemleak_scan() goes through all online nodes and tries to scan all used pages. We can do better and use pfn_to_online_page(), so in case we have CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG, offlined pages will be skiped automatically. For boxes where CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG is not present, pfn_to_online_page() will fallback to pfn_valid(). Another little optimization is to check if the page belongs to the node we are currently checking, so in case we have nodes interleaved we will not check the same pfn multiple times. I ran some tests: Add some memory to node1 and node2 making it interleaved: (qemu) object_add memory-backend-ram,id=ram0,size=1G (qemu) device_add pc-dimm,id=dimm0,memdev=ram0,node=1 (qemu) object_add memory-backend-ram,id=ram1,size=1G (qemu) device_add pc-dimm,id=dimm1,memdev=ram1,node=2 (qemu) object_add memory-backend-ram,id=ram2,size=1G (qemu) device_add pc-dimm,id=dimm2,memdev=ram2,node=1 Then, we offline that memory: # for i in {32..39} ; do echo "offline" > /sys/devices/system/node/node1/memory$i/state;done # for i in {48..55} ; do echo "offline" > /sys/devices/system/node/node1/memory$i/state;don # for i in {40..47} ; do echo "offline" > /sys/devices/system/node/node2/memory$i/state;done And we run kmemleak_scan: # echo "scan" > /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak before the patch: kmemleak: time spend: 41596 us after the patch: kmemleak: time spend: 34899 us [akpm@linux-foundation.org: remove stray newline, per Oscar] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181206131918.25099-1-osalvador@suse.de Signed-off-by: Oscar Salvador <osalvador@suse.de> Reviewed-by: Wei Yang <richard.weiyang@gmail.com> Suggested-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Acked-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2018-10-26kmemleak: add module param to print warnings to dmesgVincent Whitchurch
Currently, kmemleak only prints the number of suspected leaks to dmesg but requires the user to read a debugfs file to get the actual stack traces of the objects' allocation points. Add a module option to print the full object information to dmesg too. It can be enabled with kmemleak.verbose=1 on the kernel command line, or "echo 1 > /sys/module/kmemleak/parameters/verbose": This allows easier integration of kmemleak into test systems: We have automated test infrastructure to test our Linux systems. With this option, running our tests with kmemleak is as simple as enabling kmemleak and passing this command line option; the test infrastructure knows how to save kernel logs, which will now include kmemleak reports. Without this option, the test infrastructure needs to be specifically taught to read out the kmemleak debugfs file. Removing this need for special handling makes kmemleak more similar to other kernel debug options (slab debugging, debug objects, etc).

2018-09-04kmemleak: always register debugfs fileVincent Whitchurch
If kmemleak built in to the kernel, but is disabled by default, the debugfs file is never registered. Because of this, it is not possible to find out if the kernel is built with kmemleak support by checking for the presence of this file. To allow this, always register the file. After this patch, if the file doesn't exist, kmemleak is not available in the kernel. If writing "scan" or any other value than "clear" to this file results in EBUSY, then kmemleak is available but is disabled by default and can be activated via the kernel command line. Catalin: "that's also consistent with a late disabling of kmemleak when the debugfs entry sticks around."

2018-01-13kmemleak: allow to coexist with fault injectionDmitry Vyukov
kmemleak does one slab allocation per user allocation. So if slab fault injection is enabled to any degree, kmemleak instantly fails to allocate and turns itself off. However, it's useful to use kmemleak with fault injection to find leaks on error paths. On the other hand, checking kmemleak itself is not so useful because (1) it's a debugging tool and (2) it has a very regular allocation pattern (basically a single allocation site, so it either works or not). Turn off fault injection for kmemleak allocations.

2017-11-15kmemcheck: remove annotationsLevin, Alexander (Sasha Levin)
Patch series "kmemcheck: kill kmemcheck", v2. As discussed at LSF/MM, kill kmemcheck. KASan is a replacement that is able to work without the limitation of kmemcheck (single CPU, slow). KASan is already upstream. We are also not aware of any users of kmemcheck (or users who don't consider KASan as a suitable replacement). The only objection was that since KASAN wasn't supported by all GCC versions provided by distros at that time we should hold off for 2 years, and try again. Now that 2 years have passed, and all distros provide gcc that supports KASAN, kill kmemcheck again for the very same reasons.

2017-07-06mm: kmemleak: treat vm_struct as alternative reference to vmalloc'ed objectsCatalin Marinas
Kmemleak requires that vmalloc'ed objects have a minimum reference count of 2: one in the corresponding vm_struct object and the other owned by the vmalloc() caller. There are cases, however, where the original vmalloc() returned pointer is lost and, instead, a pointer to vm_struct is stored (see free_thread_stack()). Kmemleak currently reports such objects as leaks. This patch adds support for treating any surplus references to an object as additional references to a specified object. It introduces the kmemleak_vmalloc() API function which takes a vm_struct pointer and sets its surplus reference passing to the actual vmalloc() returned pointer.

Some of the kmemleak_*() callbacks in memblock, bootmem, CMA convert a physical address to a virtual one using __va(). However, such physical addresses may sometimes be located in highmem and using __va() is incorrect, leading to inconsistent object tracking in kmemleak. The following functions have been added to the kmemleak API and they take a physical address as the object pointer. They only perform the corresponding action if the address has a lowmem mapping: kmemleak_alloc_phys kmemleak_free_part_phys kmemleak_not_leak_phys kmemleak_ignore_phys The affected calling places have been updated to use the new kmemleak API.

This reverts commit 8f4fc071b192 ("gfp: add __GFP_NOACCOUNT"). Black-list kmem accounting policy (aka __GFP_NOACCOUNT) turned out to be fragile and difficult to maintain, because there seem to be many more allocations that should not be accounted than those that should be. Besides, false accounting an allocation might result in much worse consequences than not accounting at all, namely increased memory consumption due to pinned dead kmem caches. So it was decided to switch to the white-list policy. This patch reverts bits introducing the black-list policy. The white-list policy will be introduced later in the series.

2015-06-24mm: kmemleak: optimise kmemleak_lock acquiring during kmemleak_scanCatalin Marinas
The kmemleak memory scanning uses finer grained object->lock spinlocks primarily to avoid races with the memory block freeing. However, the pointer lookup in the rb tree requires the kmemleak_lock to be held. This is currently done in the find_and_get_object() function for each pointer-like location read during scanning. While this allows a low latency on kmemleak_*() callbacks on other CPUs, the memory scanning is slower. This patch moves the kmemleak_lock outside the scan_block() loop, acquiring/releasing it only once per scanned memory block. The allow_resched logic is moved outside scan_block() and a new scan_large_block() function is implemented which splits large blocks in MAX_SCAN_SIZE chunks with cond_resched() calls in-between. A redundant (object->flags & OBJECT_NO_SCAN) check is also removed from scan_object(). With this patch, the kmemleak scanning performance is significantly improved: at least 50% with lock debugging disabled and over an order of magnitude with lock proving enabled (on an arm64 system).

2015-06-24mm: kmemleak: avoid deadlock on the kmemleak object insertion error pathCatalin Marinas
While very unlikely (usually kmemleak or sl*b bug), the create_object() function in mm/kmemleak.c may fail to insert a newly allocated object into the rb tree. When this happens, kmemleak disables itself and prints additional information about the object already found in the rb tree. Such printing is done with the parent->lock acquired, however the kmemleak_lock is already held. This is a potential race with the scanning thread which acquires object->lock and kmemleak_lock in a This patch removes the locking around the 'parent' object information printing. Such object cannot be freed or removed from object_tree_root and object_list since kmemleak_lock is already held. There is a very small risk that some of the object data is being modified on another CPU but the only downside is inconsistent information printing.

2015-06-24mm: kmemleak: fix delete_object_*() race when called on the same memory blockCatalin Marinas
Calling delete_object_*() on the same pointer is not a standard use case (unless there is a bug in the code calling kmemleak_free()). However, during kmemleak disabling (error or user triggered via /sys), there is a potential race between kmemleak_free() calls on a CPU and __kmemleak_do_cleanup() on a different CPU. The current delete_object_*() implementation first performs a look-up holding kmemleak_lock, increments the object->use_count and then re-acquires kmemleak_lock to remove the object from object_tree_root and object_list. This patch simplifies the delete_object_*() mechanism to both look up and remove an object from the object_tree_root and object_list atomically (guarded by kmemleak_lock). This allows safe concurrent calls to delete_object_*() on the same pointer without additional locking for synchronising the kmemleak_free_enabled flag. A side effect is a slight improvement in the delete_object_*() performance by avoiding acquiring kmemleak_lock twice and incrementing/decrementing object->use_count.

2015-06-24mm: kmemleak: allow safe memory scanning during kmemleak disablingCatalin Marinas
The kmemleak scanning thread can run for minutes. Callbacks like kmemleak_free() are allowed during this time, the race being taken care of by the object->lock spinlock. Such lock also prevents a memory block from being freed or unmapped while it is being scanned by blocking the kmemleak_free() -> ... -> __delete_object() function until the lock is released in scan_object(). When a kmemleak error occurs (e.g. it fails to allocate its metadata), kmemleak_enabled is set and __delete_object() is no longer called on freed objects. If kmemleak_scan is running at the same time, kmemleak_free() no longer waits for the object scanning to complete, allowing the corresponding memory block to be freed or unmapped (in the case of vfree()). This leads to kmemleak_scan potentially triggering a page fault. This patch separates the kmemleak_free() enabling/disabling from the overall kmemleak_enabled nob so that we can defer the disabling of the object freeing tracking until the scanning thread completed. The kmemleak_free_part() is deliberately ignored by this patch since this is only called during boot before the scanning thread started.

2015-05-14gfp: add __GFP_NOACCOUNTVladimir Davydov
Not all kmem allocations should be accounted to memcg. The following patch gives an example when accounting of a certain type of allocations to memcg can effectively result in a memory leak. This patch adds the __GFP_NOACCOUNT flag which if passed to kmalloc and friends will force the allocation to go through the root cgroup. It will be used by the next patch. Note, since in case of kmemleak enabled each kmalloc implies yet another allocation from the kmemleak_object cache, we add __GFP_NOACCOUNT to gfp_kmemleak_mask. Alternatively, we could introduce a per kmem cache flag disabling accounting for all allocations of a particular kind, but (a) we would not be able to bypass accounting for kmalloc then and (b) a kmem cache with this flag set could not be merged with a kmem cache without this flag, which would increase the number of global caches and therefore fragmentation even if the memory cgroup controller is not used. Despite its generic name, currently __GFP_NOACCOUNT disables accounting only for kmem allocations while user page allocations are always charged. To catch abusing of this flag, a warning is issued on an attempt of passing it to mem_cgroup_try_charge.

2014-06-04mem-hotplug: implement get/put_online_memsVladimir Davydov
kmem_cache_{create,destroy,shrink} need to get a stable value of cpu/node online mask, because they init/destroy/access per-cpu/node kmem_cache parts, which can be allocated or destroyed on cpu/mem hotplug. To protect against cpu hotplug, these functions use {get,put}_online_cpus. However, they do nothing to synchronize with memory hotplug - taking the slab_mutex does not eliminate the possibility of race as described in patch 2. What we need there is something like get_online_cpus, but for memory. We already have lock_memory_hotplug, which serves for the purpose, but it's a bit of a hammer right now, because it's backed by a mutex. As a result, it imposes some limitations to locking order, which are not desirable, and can't be used just like get_online_cpus. That's why in patch 1 I substitute it with get/put_online_mems, which work exactly like get/put_online_cpus except they block not cpu, but memory hotplug. [ v1 can be found at https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/6/68. I NAK'ed it by myself, because it used an rw semaphore for get/put_online_mems, making them dead lock prune. ] This patch (of 2): {un}lock_memory_hotplug, which is used to synchronize against memory hotplug, is currently backed by a mutex, which makes it a bit of a hammer - threads that only want to get a stable value of online nodes mask won't be able to proceed concurrently. Also, it imposes some strong locking ordering rules on it, which narrows down the set of its usage scenarios. This patch introduces get/put_online_mems, which are the same as get/put_online_cpus, but for memory hotplug, i.e. executing a code inside a get/put_online_mems section will guarantee a stable value of online nodes, present pages, etc. lock_memory_hotplug()/unlock_memory_hotplug() are removed altogether.
