Commit b7d90e7a5ea8 ("mm/vmalloc: be more explicit about supported gfp
flags") has been merged prematurely without the rest of the series and
without addressed review feedback from Neil. Fix that up now. Only
wording is changed slightly.

Dave Chinner has mentioned that some of the xfs code would benefit from
kvmalloc support for __GFP_NOFAIL because they have allocations that
cannot fail and they do not fit into a single page.
The large part of the vmalloc implementation already complies with the
given gfp flags so there is no work for those to be done. The area and
page table allocations are an exception to that. Implement a retry loop
for those.
Add a short sleep before retrying. 1 jiffy is a completely random
timeout. Ideally the retry would wait for an explicit event - e.g. a
change to the vmalloc space change if the failure was caused by the
space fragmentation or depletion. But there are multiple different
reasons to retry and this could become much more complex. Keep the
retry simple for now and just sleep to prevent from hogging CPUs.

Patch series "extend vmalloc support for constrained allocations", v2.
Based on a recent discussion with Dave and Neil [1] I have tried to
implement NOFS, NOIO, NOFAIL support for the vmalloc to make life of
kvmalloc users easier.
A requirement for NOFAIL support for kvmalloc was new to me but this
seems to be really needed by the xfs code.
NOFS/NOIO was a known and a long term problem which was hoped to be
handled by the scope API. Those scope should have been used at the
reclaim recursion boundaries both to document them and also to remove
the necessity of NOFS/NOIO constrains for all allocations within that
scope. Instead workarounds were developed to wrap a single allocation
instead (like ceph_kvmalloc).
First patch implements NOFS/NOIO support for vmalloc. The second one
adds NOFAIL support and the third one bundles all together into kvmalloc
and drops ceph_kvmalloc which can use kvmalloc directly now.
[1] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/163184741778.29351.16920832234899124642.stgit@noble.brown
This patch (of 4):
vmalloc historically hasn't supported GFP_NO{FS,IO} requests because
page table allocations do not support externally provided gfp mask and
performed GFP_KERNEL like allocations.
Since few years we have scope (memalloc_no{fs,io}_{save,restore}) APIs
to enforce NOFS and NOIO constrains implicitly to all allocators within
the scope. There was a hope that those scopes would be defined on a
higher level when the reclaim recursion boundary starts/stops (e.g.
when a lock required during the memory reclaim is required etc.). It
seems that not all NOFS/NOIO users have adopted this approach and
instead they have taken a workaround approach to wrap a single
[k]vmalloc allocation by a scope API.
These workarounds do not serve the purpose of a better reclaim recursion
documentation and reduction of explicit GFP_NO{FS,IO} usege so let's
just provide them with the semantic they are asking for without a need
for workarounds.
Add support for GFP_NOFS and GFP_NOIO to vmalloc directly. All internal
allocations already comply with the given gfp_mask. The only current
exception is vmap_pages_range which maps kernel page tables. Infer the
proper scope API based on the given gfp mask.

The kvmalloc* allocation functions can fallback to vmalloc allocations
and more often on long running machines. In addition the kernel does
have __GFP_ACCOUNT kvmalloc* calls. So, often on long running machines,
the memory.stat does not tell the complete picture which type of memory
is charged to the memcg. So add a per-memcg vmalloc stat.

Yongqiang reports a kmemleak panic when module insmod/rmmod with KASAN
enabled(without KASAN_VMALLOC) on x86[1].
When the module area allocates memory, it's kmemleak_object is created
successfully, but the KASAN shadow memory of module allocation is not
ready, so when kmemleak scan the module's pointer, it will panic due to
no shadow memory with KASAN check.
module_alloc
__vmalloc_node_range
kmemleak_vmalloc
kmemleak_scan
update_checksum
kasan_module_alloc
kmemleak_ignore
Note, there is no problem if KASAN_VMALLOC enabled, the modules area
entire shadow memory is preallocated. Thus, the bug only exits on ARCH
which supports dynamic allocation of module area per module load, for
now, only x86/arm64/s390 are involved.
Add a VM_DEFER_KMEMLEAK flags, defer vmalloc'ed object register of
kmemleak in module_alloc() to fix this issue.

allocation
Commit ffb29b1c255a ("mm/vmalloc: fix numa spreading for large hash
tables") can cause significant performance regressions in some
situations as Andrew mentioned in [1]. The main situation is vmalloc,
vmalloc will allocate pages with NUMA_NO_NODE by default, that will
result in alloc page one by one;
In order to solve this, __alloc_pages_bulk and mempolicy should be
considered at the same time.
1) If node is specified in memory allocation request, it will alloc all
pages by __alloc_pages_bulk.
2) If interleaving allocate memory, it will cauculate how many pages
should be allocated in each node, and use __alloc_pages_bulk to alloc
pages in each node.

Percpu embedded first chunk allocator is the firstly option, but it
could fail on ARM64, eg,
percpu: max_distance=0x5fcfdc640000 too large for vmalloc space 0x781fefff0000
percpu: max_distance=0x600000540000 too large for vmalloc space 0x7dffb7ff0000
percpu: max_distance=0x5fff9adb0000 too large for vmalloc space 0x5dffb7ff0000
then we could get to
WARNING: CPU: 15 PID: 461 at vmalloc.c:3087 pcpu_get_vm_areas+0x488/0x838
and the system cannot boot successfully.
Let's implement page mapping percpu first chunk allocator as a fallback
to the embedding allocator to increase the robustness of the system.
Also fix a crash when both NEED_PER_CPU_PAGE_FIRST_CHUNK and
KASAN_VMALLOC enabled.
Tested on ARM64 qemu with cmdline "percpu_alloc=page".
This patch (of 3):
There are some fixed locations in the vmalloc area be reserved in
ARM(see iotable_init()) and ARM64(see map_kernel()), but for
pcpu_page_first_chunk(), it calls vm_area_register_early() and choose
VMALLOC_START as the start address of vmap area which could be
conflicted with above address, then could trigger a BUG_ON in
vm_area_add_early().
Let's choose a suit start address by traversing the vmlist.

Huge vmalloc allocation on heavy loaded node can lead to a global memory
shortage. Task called vmalloc can have worst badness and be selected by
OOM-killer, however taken fatal signal does not interrupt allocation
cycle. Vmalloc repeat page allocaions again and again, exacerbating the
crisis and consuming the memory freed up by another killed tasks.
After a successful completion of the allocation procedure, a fatal
signal will be processed and task will be destroyed finally. However it
may not release the consumed memory, since the allocated object may have
a lifetime unrelated to the completed task. In the worst case, this can
lead to the host will panic due to "Out of memory and no killable
processes..."
This patch allows OOM-killer to break vmalloc cycle, makes OOM more
effective and avoid host panic. It does not check oom condition
directly, however, and breaks page allocation cycle when fatal signal
was received.
This may trigger some hidden problems, when caller does not handle
vmalloc failures, or when rollaback after failed vmalloc calls own
vmallocs inside. However all of these scenarios are incorrect: vmalloc
does not guarantee successful allocation, it has never been called with
__GFP_NOFAIL and threfore either should not be used for any rollbacks or
should handle such errors correctly and not lead to critical failures.

Before we did not guarantee a free block with lowest start address for
allocations with alignment >= PAGE_SIZE. Because an alignment overhead
was included into a search length like below:
length = size + align - 1;
doing so we make sure that a bigger block would fit after applying an
alignment adjustment. Now there is no such limitation, i.e. any
alignment that user wants to apply will result to a lowest address of
returned free area.

We used to include an alignment overhead into a search length, in that
case we guarantee that a found area will definitely fit after applying a
specific alignment that user specifies. From the other hand we do not
guarantee that an area has the lowest address if an alignment is >=
PAGE_SIZE.
It means that, when a user specifies a special alignment together with a
range that corresponds to an exact requested size then an allocation
will fail. This is what happens to KASAN, it wants the free block that
exactly matches a specified range during onlining memory banks:

The vmalloc guard pages are added on top of each allocation, thereby
isolating any two allocations from one another. The top guard of the
lower allocation is the bottom guard guard of the higher allocation etc.
Therefore VM_NO_GUARD is dangerous; it breaks the basic premise of
isolating separate allocations.
There are only two in-tree users of this flag, neither of which use it
through the exported interface. Ensure it stays this way.

Commit f255935b9767 ("mm: cleanup the gfp_mask handling in
__vmalloc_area_node") added __GFP_NOWARN to gfp_mask unconditionally
however it disabled all output inside warn_alloc() call. This patch
saves original gfp_mask and provides it to all warn_alloc() calls.

Eric Dumazet reported a strange numa spreading info in [1], and found
commit 121e6f3258fe ("mm/vmalloc: hugepage vmalloc mappings") introduced
this issue [2].
Dig into the difference before and after this patch, page allocation has
some difference:
before:
alloc_large_system_hash
__vmalloc
__vmalloc_node(..., NUMA_NO_NODE, ...)
__vmalloc_node_range
__vmalloc_area_node
alloc_page /* because NUMA_NO_NODE, so choose alloc_page branch */
alloc_pages_current
alloc_page_interleave /* can be proved by print policy mode */
after:
alloc_large_system_hash
__vmalloc
__vmalloc_node(..., NUMA_NO_NODE, ...)
__vmalloc_node_range
__vmalloc_area_node
alloc_pages_node /* choose nid by nuam_mem_id() */
__alloc_pages_node(nid, ....)
So after commit 121e6f3258fe ("mm/vmalloc: hugepage vmalloc mappings"),
it will allocate memory in current node instead of interleaving allocate
memory.

There is no need to execute from iomem (and most platforms it is
impossible anyway), so add the pgprot_nx() call similar to vmap.

Patch series "small ioremap cleanups".
The first patch moves a little code around the vmalloc/ioremap boundary
following a bigger move by Nick earlier. The second enforces
non-executable mapping on ioremap just like we do for vmap. No driver
currently uses executable mappings anyway, as they should.
This patch (of 2):
This keeps it together with the implementation, and to remove the
vmap_range wrapper.

commit f608788cd2d6 ("mm/vmalloc: use rb_tree instead of list for vread()
lookups") use rb_tree instread of list to speed up lookup, but function
__find_vmap_area is try to find a vmap_area that include target address,
if target address is smaller than the leftmost node in vmap_area_root, it
will return NULL, then vread will read nothing. This behavior is
different from the primitive semantics.
The correct way is find the first vmap_are that bigger than target addr,
that is what function find_vmap_area_exceed_addr does.

Currently for order-0 pages we use a bulk-page allocator to get set of
pages. From the other hand not allocating all pages is something that
might occur. In that case we should fallbak to the single-page allocator
trying to get missing pages, because it is more permissive(direct reclaim,
etc).
Introduce a vm_area_alloc_pages() function where the described logic is
implemented.

When a memory allocation for array of pages are not succeed emit a warning
message as a first step and then perform the further cleanup.
The reason it should be done in a right order is the clean up function
which is free_vm_area() can potentially also follow its error paths what
can lead to confusion what was broken first.

Recently there has been introduced a page bulk allocator for users which
need to get number of pages per one call request.
For order-0 pages switch to an alloc_pages_bulk_array_node() instead of
alloc_pages_node(), the reason is the former is not capable of allocating
set of pages, thus a one call is per one page.
Second, according to my tests the bulk allocator uses less cycles even for
scenarios when only one page is requested. Running the "perf" on same
test case shows below difference:
<default>
- 45.18% __vmalloc_node
- __vmalloc_node_range
- 35.60% __alloc_pages
- get_page_from_freelist
3.36% __list_del_entry_valid
3.00% check_preemption_disabled
1.42% prep_new_page
<default>
<patch>
- 31.00% __vmalloc_node
- __vmalloc_node_range
- 14.48% __alloc_pages_bulk
3.22% __list_del_entry_valid
- 0.83% __alloc_pages
get_page_from_freelist
<patch>
The "test_vmalloc.sh" also shows performance improvements:
fix_size_alloc_test_4MB loops: 1000000 avg: 89105095 usec
fix_size_alloc_test loops: 1000000 avg: 513672 usec
full_fit_alloc_test loops: 1000000 avg: 748900 usec
long_busy_list_alloc_test loops: 1000000 avg: 8043038 usec
random_size_alloc_test loops: 1000000 avg: 4028582 usec
fix_align_alloc_test loops: 1000000 avg: 1457671 usec
fix_size_alloc_test_4MB loops: 1000000 avg: 62083711 usec
fix_size_alloc_test loops: 1000000 avg: 449207 usec

random_size_alloc_test loops: 1000000 avg: 2589252 usec
fix_align_alloc_test loops: 1000000 avg: 1365009 usec
For example 4MB allocations illustrates ~30% gain, all the
rest is also better.

In commit 121e6f3258fe ("mm/vmalloc: hugepage vmalloc mappings"),
__vmalloc_node_range was changed such that __get_vm_area_node was no
longer called with the requested/real size of the vmalloc allocation,
but rather with a rounded-up size.
This means that __get_vm_area_node called kasan_unpoision_vmalloc() with
a rounded up size rather than the real size. This led to it allowing
access to too much memory and so missing vmalloc OOBs and failing the
kasan kunit tests.
Pass the real size and the desired shift into __get_vm_area_node. This
allows it to round up the size for the underlying allocators while still
unpoisioning the correct quantity of shadow memory.
Adjust the other call-sites to pass in PAGE_SHIFT for the shift value.

Patch series "mm: add vmalloc_no_huge and use it", v4.
Add vmalloc_no_huge() and export it, so modules can allocate memory with
small pages.
Use the newly added vmalloc_no_huge() in KVM on s390 to get around a
hardware limitation.
This patch (of 2):
Commit 121e6f3258fe3 ("mm/vmalloc: hugepage vmalloc mappings") added
support for hugepage vmalloc mappings, it also added the flag
VM_NO_HUGE_VMAP for __vmalloc_node_range to request the allocation to be
performed with 0-order non-huge pages.
This flag is not accessible when calling vmalloc, the only option is to
call directly __vmalloc_node_range, which is not exported.
This means that a module can't vmalloc memory with small pages.
Case in point: KVM on s390x needs to vmalloc a large area, and it needs
to be mapped with non-huge pages, because of a hardware limitation.
This patch adds the function vmalloc_no_huge, which works like vmalloc,
but it is guaranteed to always back the mapping using small pages. This
new function is exported, therefore it is usable by modules.

Patch series "drivers/char: remove /dev/kmem for good".
Exploring /dev/kmem and /dev/mem in the context of memory hot(un)plug and
memory ballooning, I started questioning the existence of /dev/kmem.
Comparing it with the /proc/kcore implementation, it does not seem to be
able to deal with things like
a) Pages unmapped from the direct mapping (e.g., to be used by secretmem)
-> kern_addr_valid(). virt_addr_valid() is not sufficient.
b) Special cases like gart aperture memory that is not to be touched
-> mem_pfn_is_ram()
Unless I am missing something, it's at least broken in some cases and might
fault/crash the machine.
Looks like its existence has been questioned before in 2005 and 2010 [1],
after ~11 additional years, it might make sense to revive the discussion.
CONFIG_DEVKMEM is only enabled in a single defconfig (on purpose or by
mistake?). All distributions disable it: in Ubuntu it has been disabled
for more than 10 years, in Debian since 2.6.31, in Fedora at least
starting with FC3, in RHEL starting with RHEL4, in SUSE starting from
15sp2, and OpenSUSE has it disabled as well.
1) /dev/kmem was popular for rootkits [2] before it got disabled
basically everywhere. Ubuntu documents [3] "There is no modern user of
/dev/kmem any more beyond attackers using it to load kernel rootkits.".
RHEL documents in a BZ [5] "it served no practical purpose other than to
serve as a potential security problem or to enable binary module drivers
to access structures/functions they shouldn't be touching"
2) /proc/kcore is a decent interface to have a controlled way to read
kernel memory for debugging puposes. (will need some extensions to
deal with memory offlining/unplug, memory ballooning, and poisoned
pages, though)
3) It might be useful for corner case debugging [1]. KDB/KGDB might be a
better fit, especially, to write random memory; harder to shoot
yourself into the foot.
4) "Kernel Memory Editor" [4] hasn't seen any updates since 2000 and seems
to be incompatible with 64bit [1]. For educational purposes,
/proc/kcore might be used to monitor value updates -- or older
kernels can be used.
5) It's broken on arm64, and therefore, completely disabled there.
Looks like it's essentially unused and has been replaced by better
suited interfaces for individual tasks (/proc/kcore, KDB/KGDB). Let's
just remove it.

Instead of keeping open-coded style, move the code related to preloading
into a separate function. Therefore introduce the preload_this_cpu_lock()
routine that prelaods a current CPU with one extra vmap_area object.
There is no functional change as a result of this patch.

A potential use after free can occur in _vm_unmap_aliases where an already
freed vmap_area could be accessed, Consider the following scenario:
Process 1 Process 2
__vm_unmap_aliases __vm_unmap_aliases
purge_fragmented_blocks_allcpus rcu_read_lock()
rcu_read_lock()
list_del_rcu(&vb->free_list)
list_for_each_entry_rcu(vb .. )
__purge_vmap_area_lazy
kmem_cache_free(va)
va_start = vb->va->va_start
Here Process 1 is in purge path and it does list_del_rcu on vmap_block and
later frees the vmap_area, since Process 2 was holding the rcu lock at
this time vmap_block will still be present in and Process 2 accesse it and
thereby it tries to access vmap_area of that vmap_block which was already
freed by Process 1 and this results in use after free.
Fix this by adding a check for vb->dirty before accessing vmap_area
structure since vb->dirty will be set to VMAP_BBMAP_BITS in purge path
checking for this will prevent the use after free.

Support huge page vmalloc mappings. Config option HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMALLOC
enables support on architectures that define HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMAP and
supports PMD sized vmap mappings.
vmalloc will attempt to allocate PMD-sized pages if allocating PMD size or
larger, and fall back to small pages if that was unsuccessful.
Architectures must ensure that any arch specific vmalloc allocations that
require PAGE_SIZE mappings (e.g., module allocations vs strict module rwx)
use the VM_NOHUGE flag to inhibit larger mappings.
This can result in more internal fragmentation and memory overhead for a
given allocation, an option nohugevmalloc is added to disable at boot.

The vmalloc mapper operates on a struct page * array rather than a linear
physical address, re-name it to make this distinction clear.

vmalloc_to_page returns NULL for addresses mapped by larger pages[*].
Whether or not a vmap is huge depends on the architecture details,
alignments, boot options, etc., which the caller can not be expected to
know. Therefore HUGE_VMAP is a regression for vmalloc_to_page.
This change teaches vmalloc_to_page about larger pages, and returns the
struct page that corresponds to the offset within the large page. This
makes the API agnostic to mapping implementation details.
[*] As explained by commit 029c54b095995 ("mm/vmalloc.c: huge-vmap:
fail gracefully on unexpected huge vmap mappings")

vread() has been linearly searching vmap_area_list for looking up vmalloc
areas to read from. These same areas are also tracked by a rb_tree
(vmap_area_root) which offers logarithmic lookup.
This patch modifies vread() to use the rb_tree structure instead of the
list and the speedup for heavy /proc/kcore readers can be pretty
significant. Below are the wall clock measurements of a Python
application that leverages the drgn debugging library to read and
interpret data read from /proc/kcore.
Before the patch:
-----
$ time sudo sdb -e 'dbuf | head 3000 | wc'
(unsigned long)3000
real 0m22.446s
user 0m2.321s
sys 0m20.690s
-----
With the patch:
-----
$ time sudo sdb -e 'dbuf | head 3000 | wc'
(unsigned long)3000
real 0m2.104s
user 0m2.043s
sys 0m0.921s
