| * scatterlist: prevent invalid free when alloc failsJeffrey Carlyle2010-08-301-2/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When alloc fails, free_table is being called. Depending on the number of bytes requested, we determine if we are going to call _get_free_page() or kmalloc(). When alloc fails, our math is wrong (due to sg_size - 1), and the last buffer is wrongfully assumed to have been allocated by kmalloc. Hence, kfree gets called and a panic occurs.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit ebf8aa44beed48cd17893a83d92a4403e5f9d9e2 ("radix-tree: omplement function radix_tree_range_tag_if_tagged") does not safely set tags on on intermediate tree nodes. The code walks down the tree setting tags before it has fully resolved the path to the leaf under the assumption there will be a leaf slot with the tag set in the range it is searching. Unfortunately, this is not a valid assumption - we can abort after setting a tag on an intermediate node if we overrun the number of tags we are allowed to set in a batch, or stop scanning because we we have passed the last scan index before we reach a leaf slot with the tag we are searching for set. As a result, we can leave the function with tags set on intemediate nodes which can be tripped over later by tag-based lookups. The result of these stale tags is that lookup may end prematurely or livelock because the lookup cannot make progress. The fix for the problem involves reocrding the traversal path we take to the leaf nodes, and only propagating the tags back up the tree once the tag is set in the leaf node slot. We are already recording the path for efficient traversal, so there is no additional overhead to do the intermediately node tag setting in this manner. This fixes a radix tree lookup livelock triggered by the new writeback sync livelock avoidance code introduced in commit f446daaea9d4a420d16c606f755f3689dcb2d0ce ("mm: implement writeback livelock avoidance using page tagging").

| * radix-tree: clear all tags in radix_tree_node_rcu_freeDave Chinner2010-08-231-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit f446daaea9d4a420d16c606f755f3689dcb2d0ce ("mm: implement writeback livelock avoidance using page tagging") introduced a new radix tree tag, increasing the number of tags in each node from 2 to 3. It did not, however, fix up the code in radix_tree_node_rcu_free() that cleans up after radix_tree_shrink() and hence could leave stray tags set in the new tag array. The result is that the livelock avoidance code added in the the above commit would hit stale tags when doing tag based lookups, resulting in livelocks when trying to traverse the tree. Fix this problem in radix_tree_node_rcu_free() so it doesn't happen again in the future by using a loop to walk all the tags up to RADIX_TREE_MAX_TAGS to clear the stray tags radix_tree_shrink() leaves behind.

This leads to lots of false-positives with code that uses scatterlists. The options seem to be either to tell kmemleak that the kmalloc is not leaked or to notify kmemleak of the page allocations.

Also when checking the active count, it is not actually necessary to increment it; this allows us to get rid of the read side undo code and simplify the calculation of the final rwsem count adjustment once we've counted the reader threads to wake. The basic observation is the following. When there are waiter threads on a rwsem and the spinlock is held, other threads can only increment the active count by trying to grab the rwsem in down_xxxx(). However down_xxxx() will notice there are waiter threads and take the down_failed path, blocking to acquire the spinlock on the way there. Therefore, a thread observing an active count of zero with waiters queued and the spinlock held, is protected against other threads acquiring the rwsem until it wakes the last waiter or releases the spinlock.

A rough count is provided by the count field in percpu_counter structure, without accounting for the other values stored in individual cpu counters. The actual count is a sum of count and the cpu counters. However, count field is never different from the actual value by a factor of batch*num_online_cpu. We do not need to get actual count for comparison if count is different from the given value by this factor and allows for quick comparison without summing up all the per cpu counters.

When physical address higher than 32-bit is passed to ioremap(), higher 32-bits in physical address is cleared wrongly. Due to this bug, ioremap() can map wrong address to linear address space. In my case, 64-bit MMIO region was assigned to a PCI device (ioat device) on my system. Because of the ioremap()'s bug, wrong physical address (instead of MMIO region) was mapped to linear address space. Because of this, loading ioatdma driver caused unexpected behavior (kernel panic, kernel hangup, ...).

Instead of checking whether we have CONFIG_LOCKUP_DETECTOR + CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS_NMI each time an arch wants to know if it needs to build its own lockup detector, take a shortcut with this new config. It is enabled only if the hardlockup detection part of the whole lockup detector is on.

But it was enabled by default if CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL. So if we want to enable CONFIG_LOCKUP_DETECTOR on configs that had CONFIG_DETECT_SOFTLOCKUP, all we need is to have the same enabling by default if CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL. We can then remove CONFIG_DETECT_SOFTLOCKUP directly. So tag CONFIG_LOCKUP_DETECTOR as default y. This is what we want for most serious kernel debugging anyway. And also forbid the lockup detector in S390 as it was for the previous softlockup detector, event though the true reason for that is not outlined.

Using Ingo's suggestion, I combined the two functionalities into one file: kernel/watchdog.c. Now both the nmi_watchdog (or hardlockup detector) and softlockup detector sit on top of the perf event subsystem, which is run every 60 seconds or so to see if there are any lockups. To detect hardlockups, cpus not responding to interrupts, I implemented an hrtimer that runs 5 times for every perf event overflow event. If that stops counting on a cpu, then the cpu is most likely in trouble. To detect softlockups, tasks not yielding to the scheduler, I used the previous kthread idea that now gets kicked every time the hrtimer fires. If the kthread isn't being scheduled neither is anyone else and the warning is printed to the console. I tested this on x86_64 and both the softlockup and hardlockup paths work. V2: - cleaned up the Kconfig and softlockup combination - surrounded hardlockup cases with #ifdef CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS_NMI - seperated out the softlockup case from perf event subsystem - re-arranged the enabling/disabling nmi watchdog from proc space - added cpumasks for hardlockup failure cases - removed fallback to soft events if no PMU exists for hard events V3: - comment cleanups - drop support for older softlockup code - per_cpu cleanups - completely remove software clock base hardlockup detector - use per_cpu masking on hard/soft lockup detection - #ifdef cleanups - rename config option NMI_WATCHDOG to LOCKUP_DETECTOR - documentation additions V4: - documentation fixes - convert per_cpu to __get_cpu_var - powerpc compile fixes V5: - split apart warn flags for hard and soft lockups TODO: - figure out how to make an arch-agnostic clock2cycles call (if possible) to feed into perf events as a sample period [fweisbec: merged conflict patch] Signed-off-by: Don Zickus <dzickus@redhat.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Cyrill Gorcunov <gorcunov@gmail.com> Cc: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com> Cc: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@oracle.com> LKML-Reference: <1273266711-18706-2-git-send-email-dzickus@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com>
