| * | | | | | | | | | bpf: support decreasing order in direct packet accessAlexei Starovoitov2016-05-201-8/+4

It's a buggy program that may do something like: if (ptr + 50 > data_end) return 0; ptr += 60; *(u32*)ptr; in such case emit "invalid access to packet, off=0 size=4, R1(id=0,off=60,r=50)" error message, so all information is available for the program author to fix the program.

| * | | | | | | | | | bpf: Use mount_nodev not mount_ns to mount the bpf filesystemEric W. Biederman2016-05-201-1/+1

Looking at the code I saw a broken usage of mount_ns with current->nsproxy->mnt_ns. As the code does not acquire a reference to the mount namespace it can not possibly be correct to store the mount namespace on the superblock as it does. Replace mount_ns with mount_nodev so that each mount of the bpf filesystem returns a distinct instance, and the code is not buggy. In discussion with Hannes Frederic Sowa it was reported that the use of mount_ns was an attempt to have one bpf instance per mount namespace, in an attempt to keep resources that pin resources from hiding. That intent simply does not work, the vfs is not built to allow that kind of behavior. Which means that the bpf filesystem really is buggy both semantically and in it's implemenation as it does not nor can it implement the original intent. This change is userspace visible, but my experience with similar filesystems leads me to believe nothing will break with a model of each mount of the bpf filesystem is distinct from all others.

The symbols which point to the function entry points have a dot in front of the function name. Consequently, when the ftrace filter mechanism searches for the symbol corresponding to an entry point address, it gets the dot symbol. As a result, ftrace filter users have to be aware of this ABI detail on ppc64 and prepend a dot to the function name when setting the filter. The perf probe command insulates the user from this by ignoring the dot in front of the symbol name when matching function names to symbols, but the sysfs interface does not. This patch makes the ftrace filter mechanism do the same when searching symbols. Fixes the following failure in ftracetest's kprobe_ftrace.tc: .../kprobe_ftrace.tc: line 9: echo: write error: Invalid argument That failure is on this line of kprobe_ftrace.tc: echo _do_fork > set_ftrace_filter This is because there's no _do_fork entry in the functions list: # cat available_filter_functions | grep _do_fork ._do_fork This change introduces no regressions on the perf and ftracetest testsuite results.

However, the semantics of ioremap_cache() are not unambiguously defined, and on ARM, it will actually result in a mapping type that differs from the attributes used for the linear mapping, and for this reason, the ioremap_cache() call fails if the region is part of the memory managed by the kernel. So instead, implement an optional hook 'arch_memremap_wb' whose default implementation calls ioremap_cache() as before, but which can be overridden by the architecture to do what is appropriate for it.

But the check "nr_cpusets() <= 1" doesn't use the cpusets_enabled_key static key the right way where static keys eliminate branching overhead with jump labels. This patch converts it so that static key is used properly. It's also switched to the new static key API and the checking functions are converted to return bool instead of int. We also provide a new variant __cpuset_zone_allowed() which expects that the static key check was already done and they key was enabled. This is needed for get_page_from_freelist() where we want to also avoid the relatively slower check when ALLOC_CPUSET is not set in alloc_flags. The impact on the page allocator microbenchmark is less than expected but the cleanup in itself is worthwhile. 4.6.0-rc2 4.6.0-rc2 multcheck-v1r20 cpuset-v1r20 Min alloc-odr0-1 348.00 ( 0.00%) 348.00 ( 0.00%) Min alloc-odr0-2 254.00 ( 0.00%) 254.00 ( 0.00%) Min alloc-odr0-4 213.00 ( 0.00%) 213.00 ( 0.00%) Min alloc-odr0-8 186.00 ( 0.00%) 183.00 ( 1.61%) Min alloc-odr0-16 173.00 ( 0.00%) 171.00 ( 1.16%) Min alloc-odr0-32 166.00 ( 0.00%) 163.00 ( 1.81%) Min alloc-odr0-64 162.00 ( 0.00%) 159.00 ( 1.85%) Min alloc-odr0-128 160.00 ( 0.00%) 157.00 ( 1.88%) Min alloc-odr0-256 169.00 ( 0.00%) 166.00 ( 1.78%) Min alloc-odr0-512 180.00 ( 0.00%) 180.00 ( 0.00%) Min alloc-odr0-1024 188.00 ( 0.00%) 187.00 ( 0.53%) Min alloc-odr0-2048 194.00 ( 0.00%) 193.00 ( 0.52%) Min alloc-odr0-4096 199.00 ( 0.00%) 198.00 ( 0.50%) Min alloc-odr0-8192 202.00 ( 0.00%) 201.00 ( 0.50%) Min alloc-odr0-16384 203.00 ( 0.00%) 202.00 ( 0.49%) Signed-off-by: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Mel Gorman <mgorman@techsingularity.net> Acked-by: Zefan Li <lizefan@huawei.com> Cc: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Originally added to work around a bug which left counts stranded indefinitely on a cpu going idle (an inaccuracy magnified when small below-batch numbers represent "huge" amounts of memory), but I believe that bug is now fixed: nonetheless, this is still a useful knob. Its schedule_on_each_cpu() is probably too expensive just to fold into reading /proc/meminfo itself: give this mode 0600 to prevent abuse. Allow a write or a read to do the same: nothing to read, but "grep -h Shmem /proc/sys/vm/stat_refresh /proc/meminfo" is convenient. Oh, and since global_page_state() itself is careful to disguise any underflow as 0, hack in an "Invalid argument" and pr_warn() if a counter is negative after the refresh - this helped to fix a misaccounting of NR_ISOLATED_FILE in my migration code. But on recent kernels, I find that NR_ALLOC_BATCH and NR_PAGES_SCANNED often go negative some of the time. I have not yet worked out why, but have no evidence that it's actually harmful.

If it is a non-static object then the activation is illegal. In previous implementation, each subsystem need take care of this in their fixup callbacks. Actually we can put it into debugobjects core. Thus we can save duplicated code, and have *pure* fixup callbacks. To achieve this, a new callback "is_static_object" is introduced to let the type specific code decide whether a object is static or not. If yes, we take it into object tracker, otherwise give warning and invoke fixup callback. This change has paassed debugobjects selftest, and I also do some test with all debugobjects supports enabled. At last, I have a concern about the fixups that can it change the object which is in incorrect state on fixup? Because the 'addr' may not point to any valid object if a non-static object is not tracked. Then Change such object can overwrite someone's memory and cause unexpected behaviour. For example, the timer_fixup_activate bind timer to function stub_timer.

What is 'trusted' then becomes a matter of what's in the keyring. Currently, the test is done when the key is parsed, but given that at that point we can only sensibly refer to the contents of the system trusted keyring, we can only use that as the basis for working out the trustworthiness of a new key. With this change, a trusted keyring is a set of keys that once the trusted-only flag is set cannot be added to except by verification through one of the contained keys. Further, adding a key into a trusted keyring, whilst it might grant trustworthiness in the context of that keyring, does not automatically grant trustworthiness in the context of a second keyring to which it could be secondarily linked. To accomplish this, the authentication data associated with the key source must now be retained. For an X.509 cert, this means the contents of the AuthorityKeyIdentifier and the signature data. If system keyrings are disabled then restrict_link_by_builtin_trusted() resolves to restrict_link_reject(). The integrity digital signature code still works correctly with this as it was previously using KEY_FLAG_TRUSTED_ONLY, which doesn't permit anything to be added if there is no system keyring against which trust can be determined.

This allows all the PKCS#7 stuff to be hidden inside this function and removed from the PE file parser and the PKCS#7 test key. If external content is not required, NULL should be passed as data to the function. If the callback is not required, that can be set to NULL. The function is now called verify_pkcs7_signature() to contrast with verify_pefile_signature() and the definitions of both have been moved into linux/verification.h along with the key_being_used_for enum.

This is because the parameters of the filter are based on the result that is written to the ring buffer and not on the parameters that are passed into the trace functions. The ftrace ring buffer is optimized for writing into the ring buffer and committing. The discard procedure used when filtering decides the event should be discarded is much more heavy weight. Thus, using a temporary filter when filtering events can speed things up drastically. Without a temp buffer we have: # trace-cmd start -p nop # perf stat -r 10 hackbench 50 0.790706626 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.71% ) # trace-cmd start -e all # perf stat -r 10 hackbench 50 1.566904059 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.27% ) # trace-cmd start -e all -f 'common_preempt_count==20' # perf stat -r 10 hackbench 50 1.690598511 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.19% ) # trace-cmd start -e all -f 'common_preempt_count!=20' # perf stat -r 10 hackbench 50 1.707486364 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.30% ) The first run above is without any tracing, just to get a based figure. hackbench takes ~0.79 seconds to run on the system. The second run enables tracing all events where nothing is filtered. This increases the time by 100% and hackbench takes 1.57 seconds to run. The third run filters all events where the preempt count will equal "20" (this should never happen) thus all events are discarded. This takes 1.69 seconds to run. This is 10% slower than just committing the events! The last run enables all events and filters where the filter will commit all events, and this takes 1.70 seconds to run. The filtering overhead is approximately 10%. Thus, the discard and commit of an event from the ring buffer may be about the same time. With this patch, the numbers change: # trace-cmd start -p nop # perf stat -r 10 hackbench 50 0.778233033 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.38% ) # trace-cmd start -e all # perf stat -r 10 hackbench 50 1.582102692 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.28% ) # trace-cmd start -e all -f 'common_preempt_count==20' # perf stat -r 10 hackbench 50 1.309230710 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.22% ) # trace-cmd start -e all -f 'common_preempt_count!=20' # perf stat -r 10 hackbench 50 1.786001924 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.20% ) The first run is again the base with no tracing. The second run is all tracing with no filtering. It is a little slower, but that may be well within the noise. The third run shows that discarding all events only took 1.3 seconds. This is a speed up of 23%! The discard is much faster than even the commit. The one downside is shown in the last run. Events that are not discarded by the filter will take longer to add, this is due to the extra copy of the event.

Still, to prevent future changes to the code from overlooking new cases, make the NULL pointer check explicit and warn once in that case.

The instance must clear this flag when it is created, and must clear it when its removed. As more options may be created with this need, a macro ZEROED_TRACE_FLAGS is created that holds the flags that must not be inherited by the top level instance, and must be cleared on removal of instances.

All triggers created with the same 'name=xxx' option will update the same shared histogram data. This expands the hist trigger syntax from this: # echo hist:keys=xxx ... [ if filter] > event/trigger to this: # echo hist:name=xxx:keys=xxx ... [ if filter] > event/trigger Named histograms must use a 'compatible' set of keys and values, which means each event added to a set of named triggers must have the same names and types. Reading the 'hist' file of any of the participating events will produce the same output as any other participating event, which is to be expected since they share the same data.
