Calling kmem_obj_info() via kmem_dump_obj() on KFENCE objects has been
producing garbage data due to the object not actually being maintained
by SLAB or SLUB.
Fix this by implementing __kfence_obj_info() that copies relevant
information to struct kmem_obj_info when the object was allocated by
KFENCE; this is called by a common kmem_obj_info(), which also calls the
slab/slub/slob specific variant now called __kmem_obj_info().
For completeness, kmem_dump_obj() now displays if the object was
allocated by KFENCE.

setup_object_debug() and setup_object() has unused parameter, "struct
slab *slab". Remove it.
By the commit 3ec0974210 ("SLUB: Simplify debug code"),
setup_object_debug() were introduced to refactor previous code blocks
in the setup_object(). Previous code used SlabDebug() to init_object()
and init_tracking(). As the SlabDebug() takes "struct page *page" as
argument, the setup_object_debug() checks flag of "struct kmem_cache *s"
which doesn't require "struct page *page".
As the struct page were changed into struct slab by commit bb192ed9aa
("mm/slub: Convert most struct page to struct slab by spatch"), but it's
still unused parameter.

Many stack traces are similar so there are many similar arrays.
Stackdepot saves each unique stack only once.
Replace field addrs in struct track with depot_stack_handle_t handle. Use
stackdepot to save stack trace.
The benefits are smaller memory overhead and possibility to aggregate
per-cache statistics in the following patch using the stackdepot handle
instead of matching stacks manually.
[ vbabka@suse.cz: rebase to 5.17-rc1 and adjust accordingly ]
This was initially merged as commit 788691464c and reverted by commit
ae14c63a9f due to several issues, that should now be fixed.
The problem of unconditional memory overhead by stackdepot has been
addressed by commit 2dba5eb1c7 ("lib/stackdepot: allow optional init
and stack_table allocation by kvmalloc()"), so the dependency on
stackdepot will result in extra memory usage only when a slab cache
tracking is actually enabled, and not for all CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG builds.
The build failures on some architectures were also addressed, and the
reported issue with xfs/433 test did not reproduce on 5.17-rc1 with this
patch.

We currently allocate scope for every memcg to be able to tracked on
every superblock instantiated in the system, regardless of whether that
superblock is even accessible to that memcg.
These huge memcg counts come from container hosts where memcgs are
confined to just a small subset of the total number of superblocks that
instantiated at any given point in time.
For these systems with huge container counts, list_lru does not need the
capability of tracking every memcg on every superblock. What it comes
down to is that adding the memcg to the list_lru at the first insert.
So introduce kmem_cache_alloc_lru to allocate objects and its list_lru.
In the later patch, we will convert all inode and dentry allocation from
kmem_cache_alloc to kmem_cache_alloc_lru.

Preparatory, callers convert back to struct page for now.
Also move setting page flags to alloc_slab_page() where we still operate
on a struct page. This means the page->slab_cache pointer is now set
later than the PageSlab flag, which could theoretically confuse some pfn
walker assuming PageSlab means there would be a valid cache pointer. But
as the code had no barriers and used __set_bit() anyway, it could have
happened already, so there shouldn't be such a walker.

On big-endian s390, the alloc/free_traces attributes produce endless
output, because of always 0 idx in slab_debugfs_show().
idx is de-referenced from *v, which points to a loff_t value, with
unsigned int idx = *(unsigned int *)v;
This will only give the upper 32 bits on big-endian, which remain 0.
Instead of only fixing this de-reference, during discussion it seemed
more appropriate to change the seq_ops so that they use an explicit
iterator in private loc_track struct.
This patch adds idx to loc_track, which will also fix the endianness
bug.

After the memory is freed, it can be immediately allocated by other
CPUs, before the "free" trace report has been emitted. This causes
inaccurate traces.
For example, if the following sequence of events occurs:
CPU 0 CPU 1
(1) alloc xxxxxx
(2) free xxxxxx
(3) alloc xxxxxx
(4) free xxxxxx
Then they will be inaccurately reported via tracing, so that they appear
to have happened in this order:
CPU 0 CPU 1
(1) alloc xxxxxx
(2) alloc xxxxxx
(3) free xxxxxx
(4) free xxxxxx
This makes it look like CPU 1 somehow managed to allocate memory that
CPU 0 still had allocated for itself.
In order to avoid this, emit the "free xxxxxx" tracing report just
before the actual call to free the memory, instead of just after it.

Commit 0ad9500e16 ("slub: prefetch next freelist pointer in
slab_alloc()") introduced prefetch_freepointer() because when other
cpu(s) freed objects into a page that current cpu owns, the freelist
link is hot on cpu(s) which freed objects and possibly very cold on
current cpu.
But if freelist link chain is hot on cpu(s) which freed objects, it's
better to invalidate that chain because they're not going to access
again within a short time.
So use prefetchw instead of prefetch. On supported architectures like
x86 and arm, it invalidates other copied instances of a cache line when
prefetching it.

The defaults are determined based on object size and can go up to 30 for
objects smaller than 256 bytes. Before the previous patch changed the
accounting, this could have made cpu partial list contain up to 30
pages. After that patch, only up to 2 pages with default allocation
order.
Very short lists limit the usefulness of the whole concept of cpu
partial lists, so this patch aims at a more reasonable default under the
new accounting. The defaults are quadrupled, except for object size >=
PAGE_SIZE where it's doubled. This makes the lists grow up to 10 pages
in practice.

As expected, memory usage dropped significantly with change of
accounting, increasing the defaults increased it, but not as much. The
number of page allocation/frees dropped significantly with the new
accounting, but didn't increase with the higher defaults.
Interestingly, the number of fasthpath allocations increased, as well as
allocations from the cpu partial list, even though it's shorter.

With CONFIG_SLUB_CPU_PARTIAL enabled, SLUB keeps a percpu list of
partial slabs that can be promoted to cpu slab when the previous one is
depleted, without accessing the shared partial list. A slab can be
added to this list by 1) refill of an empty list from get_partial_node()
- once we really have to access the shared partial list, we acquire
multiple slabs to amortize the cost of locking, and 2) first free to a
previously full slab - instead of putting the slab on a shared partial
list, we can more cheaply freeze it and put it on the per-cpu list.
To control how large a percpu partial list can grow for a kmem cache,
set_cpu_partial() calculates a target number of free objects on each
cpu's percpu partial list, and this can be also set by the sysfs file
cpu_partial.
However, the tracking of actual number of objects is imprecise, in order
to limit overhead from cpu X freeing an objects to a slab on percpu
partial list of cpu Y. Basically, the percpu partial slabs form a
single linked list, and when we add a new slab to the list with current
head "oldpage", we set in the struct page of the slab we're adding:
page->pages = oldpage->pages + 1; // this is precise
page->pobjects = oldpage->pobjects + (page->objects - page->inuse);
page->next = oldpage;
Thus the real number of free objects in the slab (objects - inuse) is
only determined at the moment of adding the slab to the percpu partial
list, and further freeing doesn't update the pobjects counter nor
propagate it to the current list head. As Jann reports [1], this can
easily lead to large inaccuracies, where the target number of objects
(up to 30 by default) can translate to the same number of (empty) slab
pages on the list. In case 2) above, we put a slab with 1 free object
on the list, thus only increase page->pobjects by 1, even if there are
subsequent frees on the same slab. Jann has noticed this in practice
and so did we [2] when investigating significant increase of kmemcg
usage after switching from SLAB to SLUB.
While this is no longer a problem in kmemcg context thanks to the
accounting rewrite in 5.9, the memory waste is still not ideal and it's
questionable whether it makes sense to perform free object count based
control when object counts can easily become so much inaccurate. So
this patch converts the accounting to be based on number of pages only
(which is precise) and removes the page->pobjects field completely.
This is also ultimately simpler.
To retain the existing set_cpu_partial() heuristic, first calculate the
target number of objects as previously, but then convert it to target
number of pages by assuming the pages will be half-filled on average.
This assumption might obviously also be inaccurate in practice, but
cannot degrade to actual number of pages being equal to the target
number of objects.
We could also skip the intermediate step with target number of objects
and rewrite the heuristic in terms of pages. However we still have the
sysfs file cpu_partial which uses number of objects and could break
existing users if it suddenly becomes number of pages, so this patch
doesn't do that.
In practice, after this patch the heuristics limit the size of percpu
partial list up to 2 pages. In case of a reported regression (which
would mean some workload has benefited from the previous imprecise
object based counting), we can tune the heuristics to get a better
compromise within the new scheme, while still avoid the unexpectedly
long percpu partial lists.

==========
Evaluation
==========
Mel was kind enough to run v1 through mmtests machinery for netperf
(localhost) and hackbench and, for most significant results see below.
So there are some apparent regressions, especially with hackbench, which
I think ultimately boils down to having shorter percpu partial lists on
average and some benchmarks benefiting from longer ones. Monitoring
slab usage also indicated less memory usage by slab. Based on that, the
following patch will bump the defaults to allow longer percpu partial
lists than after this patch.
However the goal is certainly not such that we would limit the percpu
partial lists to 30 pages just because previously a specific alloc/free
pattern could lead to the limit of 30 objects translate to a limit to 30
pages - that would make little sense. This is a correctness patch, and
if a workload benefits from larger lists, the sysfs tuning knobs are
still there to allow that.

After commit f227f0faf6 ("slub: fix unreclaimable slab stat for bulk
free"), the check for free nonslab page is replaced by VM_BUG_ON_PAGE,
which only check with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM enabled, but this config may
impact performance, so it only for debug.
Commit 0937502af7 ("slub: Add check for kfree() of non slab objects.")
add the ability, which should be needed in any configs to catch the
invalid free, they even could be potential issue, eg, memory corruption,
use after free and double free, so replace VM_BUG_ON_PAGE to
WARN_ON_ONCE, add object address printing to help use to debug the
issue.

Merge tag 'printk-for-5.16' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/printk/linux
Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:
- Extend %pGp print format to print hex value of the page flags
- Use kvmalloc instead of kmalloc to allocate devkmsg buffers
- Misc cleanup and warning fixes
* tag 'printk-for-5.16' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/printk/linux:
vsprintf: Update %pGp documentation about that it prints hex value
lib/vsprintf.c: Amend static asserts for format specifier flags
vsprintf: Make %pGp print the hex value
test_printf: Append strings more efficiently
test_printf: Remove custom appending of '|'
test_printf: Remove separate page_flags variable
test_printf: Make pft array const
ia64: don't do IA64_CMPXCHG_DEBUG without CONFIG_PRINTK
printk: use gnu_printf format attribute for printk_sprint()
printk: avoid -Wsometimes-uninitialized warning
printk: use kvmalloc instead of kmalloc for devkmsg_user
All existing users of %pGp want the hex value as well as the decoded
flag names. This looks awkward (passing the same parameter to printf
twice), so move that functionality into the core. If we want, we
can make that optional with flag arguments to %pGp in the future.

If object's reuse is delayed, it will be excluded from the reconstructed
freelist. But we forgot to adjust the cnt accordingly. So there will
be a mismatch between reconstructed freelist depth and cnt. This will
lead to free_debug_processing() complaining about freelist count or a
incorrect slub inuse count.

Patch series "Fixups for slub".
This series contains various bug fixes for slub. We fix memoryleak,
use-afer-free, NULL pointer dereferencing and so on in slub. More
details can be found in the respective changelogs.
This patch (of 5):
It's possible that __seq_open_private() will return NULL. So we should
check it before using lest dereferencing NULL pointer. And in error
paths, we forgot to release private buffer via seq_release_private().
Memory will leak in these paths.

Embed local_lock into struct kmem_cpu_slab and use the irq-safe versions of
local_lock instead of plain local_irq_save/restore. On !PREEMPT_RT that's
equivalent, with better lockdep visibility. On PREEMPT_RT that means better
preemption.
However, the cost on PREEMPT_RT is the loss of lockless fast paths which only
work with cpu freelist. Those are designed to detect and recover from being
preempted by other conflicting operations (both fast or slow path), but the
slow path operations assume they cannot be preempted by a fast path operation,
which is guaranteed naturally with disabled irqs. With local locks on
PREEMPT_RT, the fast paths now also need to take the local lock to avoid races.
In the allocation fastpath slab_alloc_node() we can just defer to the slowpath
__slab_alloc() which also works with cpu freelist, but under the local lock.
In the free fastpath do_slab_free() we have to add a new local lock protected
version of freeing to the cpu freelist, as the existing slowpath only works
with the page freelist.
Also update the comment about locking scheme in SLUB to reflect changes done

[ Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de>: use local_lock() without irq in PREEMPT_RT
scope; debugging of RT crashes resulting in put_cpu_partial() locking changes ]
Signed-off-by: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz>
We currently use preempt_disable() (directly or via get_cpu_ptr()) to stabilize
the pointer to kmem_cache_cpu. On PREEMPT_RT this would be incompatible with
the list_lock spinlock. We can use migrate_disable() instead, but that
increases overhead on !PREEMPT_RT as it's an unconditional function call.
In order to get the best available mechanism on both PREEMPT_RT and
!PREEMPT_RT, introduce private slub_get_cpu_ptr() and slub_put_cpu_ptr()
wrappers and use them.

Jann Horn reported [1] the following theoretically possible race:
task A: put_cpu_partial() calls preempt_disable()
task A: oldpage = this_cpu_read(s->cpu_slab->partial)
interrupt: kfree() reaches unfreeze_partials() and discards the page
task B (on another CPU): reallocates page as page cache
task A: reads page->pages and page->pobjects, which are actually
halves of the pointer page->lru.prev
task B (on another CPU): frees page
interrupt: allocates page as SLUB page and places it on the percpu partial list
task A: this_cpu_cmpxchg() succeeds
which would cause page->pages and page->pobjects to end up containing
halves of pointers that would then influence when put_cpu_partial()
happens and show up in root-only sysfs files. Maybe that's acceptable,
I don't know. But there should probably at least be a comment for now
to point out that we're reading union fields of a page that might be
in a completely different state.
Additionally, the this_cpu_cmpxchg() approach in put_cpu_partial() is only safe
against s->cpu_slab->partial manipulation in ___slab_alloc() if the latter
disables irqs, otherwise a __slab_free() in an irq handler could call
put_cpu_partial() in the middle of ___slab_alloc() manipulating ->partial
and corrupt it. This becomes an issue on RT after a local_lock is introduced
in later patch. The fix means taking the local_lock also in put_cpu_partial()
on RT.
After debugging this issue, Mike Galbraith suggested [2] that to avoid
different locking schemes on RT and !RT, we can just protect put_cpu_partial()
with disabled irqs (to be converted to local_lock_irqsave() later) everywhere.
This should be acceptable as it's not a fast path, and moving the actual
partial unfreezing outside of the irq disabled section makes it short, and with
the retry loop gone the code can be also simplified. In addition, the race
reported by Jann should no longer be possible.

We need to disable irqs around slab_lock() (a bit spinlock) to make it
irq-safe. Most calls to slab_lock() are nested under spin_lock_irqsave() which
doesn't disable irqs on PREEMPT_RT, so add explicit disabling with PREEMPT_RT.
The exception is cmpxchg_double_slab() which already disables irqs, so use a
__slab_[un]lock() variant without irq disable there.
slab_[un]lock() thus needs a flags pointer parameter, which is unused on !RT.
free_debug_processing() now has two flags variables, which looks odd, but only
one is actually used - the one used in spin_lock_irqsave() on !RT and the one
used in slab_lock() on RT.
As a result, __cmpxchg_double_slab() and cmpxchg_double_slab() become
effectively identical on RT, as both will disable irqs, which is necessary on
RT as most callers of this function also rely on irqsaving lock operations.
Thus, assert that irqs are already disabled in __cmpxchg_double_slab() only on
!RT and also change the VM_BUG_ON assertion to the more standard lockdep_assert
one.

flush_all() flushes a specific SLAB cache on each CPU (where the cache
is present). The deactivate_slab()/__free_slab() invocation happens
within IPI handler and is problematic for PREEMPT_RT.
The flush operation is not a frequent operation or a hot path. The
per-CPU flush operation can be moved to within a workqueue.
Because a workqueue handler, unlike IPI handler, does not disable irqs,
flush_slab() now has to disable them for working with the kmem_cache_cpu
fields. deactivate_slab() is safe to call with irqs enabled.

flush_slab() is called either as part IPI handler on given live cpu, or as a
cleanup on behalf of another cpu that went offline. The first case needs to
protect updating the kmem_cache_cpu fields with disabled irqs. Currently the
whole call happens with irqs disabled by the IPI handler, but the following
patch will change from IPI to workqueue, and flush_slab() will have to disable
irqs (to be replaced with a local lock later) in the critical part.
To prepare for this change, replace the call to flush_slab() for the dead cpu
handling with an opencoded variant that will not disable irqs nor take a local
lock.

__unfreeze_partials() no longer needs to have irqs disabled, except for making

Signed-off-by: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz>
Unfreezing partial list can be split to two phases - detaching the list from
struct kmem_cache_cpu, and processing the list. The whole operation does not
need to be protected by disabled irqs. Restructure the code to separate the
detaching (with disabled irqs) and unfreezing (with irq disabling to be reduced
in the next patch).
Also, unfreeze_partials() can be called from another cpu on behalf of a cpu
that is being offlined, where disabling irqs on the local cpu has no sense, so
restructure the code as follows:
- __unfreeze_partials() is the bulk of unfreeze_partials() that processes the
detached percpu partial list
- unfreeze_partials() detaches list from current cpu with irqs disabled and
calls __unfreeze_partials()
- unfreeze_partials_cpu() is to be called for the offlined cpu so it needs no
irq disabling, and is called from __flush_cpu_slab()
- flush_cpu_slab() is for the local cpu thus it needs to call
unfreeze_partials(). So it can't simply call
__flush_cpu_slab(smp_processor_id()) anymore and we have to open-code the
proper calls.

Instead of iterating through the live percpu partial list, detach it from the
kmem_cache_cpu at once. This is simpler and will allow further optimization.

unfreeze_partials() can be optimized so that it doesn't need irqs disabled for
the whole time. As the first step, move irq control into the function and
remove it from the put_cpu_partial() caller.
Signed-off-by: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz>
The function is now safe to be called with irqs enabled, so move the calls
outside of irq disabled sections.
When called from ___slab_alloc() -> flush_slab() we have irqs disabled, so to
reenable them before deactivate_slab() we need to open-code flush_slab() in
___slab_alloc() and reenable irqs after modifying the kmem_cache_cpu fields.
But that means a IRQ handler meanwhile might have assigned a new page to
kmem_cache_cpu.page so we have to retry the whole check.
The remaining callers of flush_slab() are the IPI handler which has disabled
irqs anyway, and slub_cpu_dead() which will be dealt with in the following
patch.

dectivate_slab() now no longer touches the kmem_cache_cpu structure, so it will
be possible to call it with irqs enabled. Just convert the spin_lock calls to
their irq saving/restoring variants to make it irq-safe.
Note we now have to use cmpxchg_double_slab() for irq-safe slab_lock(), because
in some situations we don't take the list_lock, which would disable irqs.
Signed-off-by: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz>
deactivate_slab() removes the cpu slab by merging the cpu freelist with slab's
freelist and putting the slab on the proper node's list. It also sets the
respective kmem_cache_cpu pointers to NULL.
By extracting the kmem_cache_cpu operations from the function, we can make it
not dependent on disabled irqs.
Also if we return a single free pointer from ___slab_alloc, we no longer have
to assign kmem_cache_cpu.page before deactivation or care if somebody preempted
us and assigned a different page to our kmem_cache_cpu in the process.
Signed-off-by: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz>
The function get_partial() does not need to have irqs disabled as a whole. It's
sufficient to convert spin_lock operations to their irq saving/restoring
versions.
As a result, it's now possible to reach the page allocator from the slab
allocator without disabling and re-enabling interrupts on the way.
Signed-off-by: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz>
Building on top of the previous patch, re-enable irqs before checking new
pages. alloc_debug_processing() is now called with enabled irqs so we need to

a need for it anyway.

When we obtain a new slab page from node partial list or page allocator, we
assign it to kmem_cache_cpu, perform some checks, and if they fail, we undo
the assignment.
In order to allow doing the checks without irq disabled, restructure the code
so that the checks are done first, and kmem_cache_cpu.page assignment only
after they pass.

allocate_slab() currently re-enables irqs before calling to the page allocator.
It depends on gfpflags_allow_blocking() to determine if it's safe to do so.
Now we can instead simply restore irq before calling it through new_slab().

Continue reducing the irq disabled scope. Check for per-cpu partial slabs with

As another step of shortening irq disabled sections in ___slab_alloc(), delay
disabling irqs until we pass the initial checks if there is a cached percpu
slab and it's suitable for our allocation.
Now we have to recheck c->page after actually disabling irqs as an allocation
in irq handler might have replaced it.
Because we call pfmemalloc_match() as one of the checks, we might hit
VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(!PageSlab(page)) in PageSlabPfmemalloc in case we get
interrupted and the page is freed. Thus introduce a pfmemalloc_match_unsafe()
variant that lacks the PageSlab check.

Currently __slab_alloc() disables irqs around the whole ___slab_alloc(). This
includes cases where this is not needed, such as when the allocation ends up in
the page allocator and has to awkwardly enable irqs back based on gfp flags.
Also the whole kmem_cache_alloc_bulk() is executed with irqs disabled even when
it hits the __slab_alloc() slow path, and long periods with disabled interrupts
are undesirable.
As a first step towards reducing irq disabled periods, move irq handling into
___slab_alloc(). Callers will instead prevent the s->cpu_slab percpu pointer
from becoming invalid via get_cpu_ptr(), thus preempt_disable(). This does not
protect against modification by an irq handler, which is still done by disabled
irq for most of ___slab_alloc(). As a small immediate benefit,
slab_out_of_memory() from ___slab_alloc() is now called with irqs enabled.
kmem_cache_alloc_bulk() disables irqs for its fastpath and then re-enables them
before calling ___slab_alloc(), which then disables them at its discretion. The
whole kmem_cache_alloc_bulk() operation also disables preemption.
When ___slab_alloc() calls new_slab() to allocate a new page, re-enable
preemption, because new_slab() will re-enable interrupts in contexts that allow
blocking (this will be improved by later patches).
The patch itself will thus increase overhead a bit due to disabled preemption
(on configs where it matters) and increased disabling/enabling irqs in
kmem_cache_alloc_bulk(), but that will be gradually improved in the following
patches.
Note in __slab_alloc() we need to change the #ifdef CONFIG_PREEMPT guard to
CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT to make sure preempt disable/enable is properly paired in
all configurations. On configs without involuntary preemption and debugging
the re-read of kmem_cache_cpu pointer is still compiled out as it was before.

In slab_alloc_node() and do_slab_free() fastpaths we need to guarantee that
our kmem_cache_cpu pointer is from the same cpu as the tid value. Currently
that's done by reading the tid first using this_cpu_read(), then the
kmem_cache_cpu pointer and verifying we read the same tid using the pointer and
plain READ_ONCE().
This can be simplified to just fetching kmem_cache_cpu pointer and then reading
tid using the pointer. That guarantees they are from the same cpu. We don't
need to read the tid using this_cpu_read() because the value will be validated
by this_cpu_cmpxchg_double(), making sure we are on the correct cpu and the
freelist didn't change by anyone preempting us since reading the tid.

When we allocate slab object from a newly acquired page (from node's partial

Commit d6e0b7fa11 ("slub: make dead caches discard free slabs immediately")
introduced cpu partial flushing for kmemcg caches, based on setting the target
cpu_partial to 0 and adding a flushing check in put_cpu_partial().
This code that sets cpu_partial to 0 was later moved by c9fc586403 ("slab:
introduce __kmemcg_cache_deactivate()") and ultimately removed by 9855609bde
("mm: memcg/slab: use a single set of kmem_caches for all accounted
allocations"). However the check and flush in put_cpu_partial() was never
removed, although it's effectively a dead code. So this patch removes it.
Note that d6e0b7fa11 also added preempt_disable()/enable() to
unfreeze_partials() which could be thus also considered unnecessary. But

Vijayanand Jitta reports:
Consider the scenario where CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON is set and we would
want to disable slub_debug for few slabs. Using boot parameter with

This patch fixes it by delaying the moment when the global slub_debug
flags variable is updated. In case a "slub_debug=-,slab_name" has been
passed, the global flags remain as initialized (depending on
CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON enabled or disabled) and are not simply reset to 0.

This reverts commit 788691464c.
It's not clear why, but it causes unexplained problems in entirely
unrelated xfs code. The most likely explanation is some slab
corruption, possibly triggered due to CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON. See [1].
It ends up having a few other problems too, like build errors on
arch/arc, and Geert reporting it using much more memory on m68k [3] (it
probably does so elsewhere too, but it is probably just more noticeable
on m68k).
The architecture issues (both build and memory use) are likely just
because this change effectively force-enabled STACKDEPOT (along with a
very bad default value for the stackdepot hash size). But together with
the xfs issue, this all smells like "this commit was not ready" to me.

When running the kernel with panic_on_taint, the usual slub debug error
messages are not being printed when object corruption happens. That's
because we panic in add_taint(), which is called before printing the
additional information. This is a bit unfortunate as the error messages
are actually very useful, especially before a panic. Let's fix this by
moving add_taint() after the errors are printed on the console.

alloc_calls and free_calls implementation in sysfs have two issues, one is
PAGE_SIZE limitation of sysfs and other is it does not adhere to "one
value per file" rule.
To overcome this issues, move the alloc_calls and free_calls
implementation to debugfs.
Debugfs cache will be created if SLAB_STORE_USER flag is set.
Rename the alloc_calls/free_calls to alloc_traces/free_traces, to be
inline with what it does.

Obscuring the pointers that slub shows when debugging makes for some
confusing slub debug messages:
Padding overwritten. 0x0000000079f0674a-0x000000000d4dce17
Those addresses are hashed for kernel security reasons. If we're trying
to be secure with slub_debug on the commandline we have some big problems
given that we dump whole chunks of kernel memory to the kernel logs.
Let's force on the no_hash_pointers commandline flag when slub_debug is on
the commandline. This makes slub debug messages more meaningful and if by
chance a kernel address is in some slub debug object dump we will have a
better chance of figuring out what went wrong.
Note that we don't use %px in the slub code because we want to reduce the
number of places that %px is used in the kernel. This also nicely prints
a big fat warning at kernel boot if slub_debug is on the commandline so
that we know that this kernel shouldn't be used on production systems.

Petch series "slub: Print non-hashed pointers in slub debugging", v3.
I was doing some debugging recently and noticed that my pointers were
being hashed while slub_debug was on the kernel commandline. Let's force
on the no hash pointer option when slub_debug is on the kernel commandline
so that the prints are more meaningful.
The first two patches are something else I noticed while looking at the
code. The message argument is never used so the debugging messages are
not as clear as they could be and the slub_debug=- behavior seems to be
busted. Then there's a printf fixup from Joe and the final patch is the
one that force disables pointer hashing.
This patch (of 4):
Passing slub_debug=- on the kernel commandline is supposed to disable slub
debugging. This is especially useful with CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON where the
default is to have slub debugging enabled in the build. Due to some code
reorganization this behavior was dropped, but the code to make it work
mostly stuck around. Restore the previous behavior by disabling the
static key when we parse the commandline and see that we're trying to
disable slub debugging.

SLUB has resiliency_test() function which is hidden behind #ifdef
SLUB_RESILIENCY_TEST that is not part of Kconfig, so nobody runs it.
KUnit should be a proper replacement for it.
Try changing byte in redzone after allocation and changing pointer to next
free node, first byte, 50th byte and redzone byte. Check if validation
finds errors.
There are several differences from the original resiliency test: Tests
create own caches with known state instead of corrupting shared kmalloc
caches.
The corruption of freepointer uses correct offset, the original resiliency
test got broken with freepointer changes.
Scratch changing random byte test, because it does not have meaning in
this form where we need deterministic results.
Add new option CONFIG_SLUB_KUNIT_TEST in Kconfig. Tests next_pointer,
first_word and clobber_50th_byte do not run with KASAN option on. Because
the test deliberately modifies non-allocated objects.
Use kunit_resource to count errors in cache and silence bug reports.
Count error whenever slab_bug() or slab_fix() is called or when the count
of pages is wrong.

It turns out that SLUB redzoning ("slub_debug=Z") checks from
s->object_size rather than from s->inuse (which is normally bumped to
make room for the freelist pointer), so a cache created with an object
size less than 24 would have the freelist pointer written beyond
s->object_size, causing the redzone to be corrupted by the freelist
pointer. This was very visible with "slub_debug=ZF":

The redzone area for SLUB exists between s->object_size and s->inuse
(which is at least the word-aligned object_size). If a cache were
created with an object_size smaller than sizeof(void *), the in-object
stored freelist pointer would overwrite the redzone (e.g. with boot
param "slub_debug=ZF"):

Patch series "Actually fix freelist pointer vs redzoning", v4.
This fixes redzoning vs the freelist pointer (both for middle-position
and very small caches). Both are "theoretical" fixes, in that I see no
evidence of such small-sized caches actually be used in the kernel, but
that's no reason to let the bugs continue to exist, especially since
people doing local development keep tripping over it. :)
This patch (of 3):
Instead of repeating "Redzone" and "Poison", clarify which sides of
those zones got tripped. Additionally fix column alignment in the
trailer.

This is because there's one order of locking from the hotplug callbacks:
lock(cpu_hotplug_lock); // from hotplug machinery itself
lock(slab_mutex); // in e.g. slab_mem_going_offline_callback()
And commit 1f0723a4c0 made the reverse sequence possible:
lock(slab_mutex); // in kmem_cache_create_usercopy()
lock(cpu_hotplug_lock); // kmem_cache_open() -> static_key_enable()
The simplest fix is to move static_key_enable() to a place before slab_mutex is
taken. That means kmem_cache_create_usercopy() in mm/slab_common.c which is not
ideal for SLUB-specific code, but the #ifdef CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG makes it
at least self-contained and obvious.

This change uses the previously added memory initialization feature of
HW_TAGS KASAN routines for slab memory when init_on_free is enabled.
With this change, memory initialization memset() is no longer called when
both HW_TAGS KASAN and init_on_free are enabled. Instead, memory is
initialized in KASAN runtime.
For SLUB, the memory initialization memset() is moved into
slab_free_hook() that currently directly follows the initialization loop.
A new argument is added to slab_free_hook() that indicates whether to
initialize the memory or not.
To avoid discrepancies with which memory gets initialized that can be
caused by future changes, both KASAN hook and initialization memset() are
put together and a warning comment is added.
Combining setting allocation tags with memory initialization improves
HW_TAGS KASAN performance when init_on_free is enabled.

Commit ca0cab65ea ("mm, slub: introduce static key for slub_debug()")
introduced a static key to optimize the case where no debugging is
enabled for any cache. The static key is enabled when slub_debug boot
parameter is passed, or CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON enabled.
However, some caches might be created with one or more debugging flags
explicitly passed to kmem_cache_create(), and the commit missed this.
Thus the debugging functionality would not be actually performed for
these caches unless the static key gets enabled by boot param or config.
This patch fixes it by checking for debugging flags passed to
kmem_cache_create() and enabling the static key accordingly.
Note such explicit debugging flags should not be used outside of
debugging and testing as they will now enable the static key globally.
btrfs_init_cachep() creates a cache with SLAB_RED_ZONE but that's a
mistake that's being corrected [1]. rcu_torture_stats() creates a cache
with SLAB_STORE_USER, but that is a testing module so it's OK and will
start working as intended after this patch.
Also note that in case of backports to kernels before v5.12 that don't
have 59450bbc12 ("mm, slab, slub: stop taking cpu hotplug lock"),
static_branch_enable_cpuslocked() should be used.

This reverts commit 8ff60eb052.
The kernel test robot reports a huge performance regression due to the
commit, and the reason seems fairly straightforward: when there is
contention on the page list (which is what causes acquire_slab() to
fail), we do _not_ want to just loop and try again, because that will
transfer the contention to the 'n->list_lock' spinlock we hold, and
just make things even worse.
This is admittedly likely a problem only on big machines - the kernel
test robot report comes from a 96-thread dual socket Intel Xeon Gold
6252 setup, but the regression there really is quite noticeable:
-47.9% regression of stress-ng.rawpkt.ops_per_sec
and the commit that was marked as being fixed (7ced371971: "slub:
Acquire_slab() avoid loop") actually did the loop exit early very
intentionally (the hint being that "avoid loop" part of that commit
message), exactly to avoid this issue.
The correct thing to do may be to pick some kind of reasonable middle
ground: instead of breaking out of the loop on the very first sign of
contention, or trying over and over and over again, the right thing may
be to re-try _once_, and then give up on the second failure (or pick
your favorite value for "once"..).

The mem_dump_obj() functionality adds a few hundred bytes, which is a
small price to pay. Except on kernels built with CONFIG_PRINTK=n, in
which mem_dump_obj() messages will be suppressed. This commit therefore
makes mem_dump_obj() be a static inline empty function on kernels built
with CONFIG_PRINTK=n and excludes all of its support functions as well.
This avoids kernel bloat on systems that cannot use mem_dump_obj().

For allocations from kmalloc caches, kasan_kmalloc() always follows
kasan_slab_alloc(). Currenly, both of them unpoison the whole object,
which is unnecessary.
This patch provides separate implementations for both annotations:
kasan_slab_alloc() unpoisons the whole object, and kasan_kmalloc() only
poisons the redzone.
For generic KASAN, the redzone start might not be aligned to
KASAN_GRANULE_SIZE. Therefore, the poisoning is split in two parts:
kasan_poison_last_granule() poisons the unaligned part, and then
kasan_poison() poisons the rest.
This patch also clarifies alignment guarantees of each of the poisoning
functions and drops the unnecessary round_up() call for redzone_end.
With this change, the early SLUB cache annotation needs to be changed to
kasan_slab_alloc(), as kasan_kmalloc() doesn't unpoison objects now. The
number of poisoned bytes for objects in this cache stays the same, as
kmem_cache_node->object_size is equal to sizeof(struct kmem_cache_node).

Inserts KFENCE hooks into the SLUB allocator.
To pass the originally requested size to KFENCE, add an argument
'orig_size' to slab_alloc*(). The additional argument is required to
preserve the requested original size for kmalloc() allocations, which
uses size classes (e.g. an allocation of 272 bytes will return an object
of size 512). Therefore, kmem_cache::size does not represent the
kmalloc-caller's requested size, and we must introduce the argument
'orig_size' to propagate the originally requested size to KFENCE.
Without the originally requested size, we would not be able to detect
out-of-bounds accesses for objects placed at the end of a KFENCE object
page if that object is not equal to the kmalloc-size class it was
bucketed into.
When KFENCE is disabled, there is no additional overhead, since
slab_alloc*() functions are __always_inline.

Generic mm functions that call KASAN annotations that might report a bug
pass _RET_IP_ to them as an argument. This allows KASAN to include the
name of the function that called the mm function in its report's header.
Now that KASAN has inline wrappers for all of its annotations, move
_RET_IP_ to those wrappers to simplify annotation call sites.

SLUB currently account kmalloc() and kmalloc_node() allocations larger
than order-1 page per-node. But it forget to update the per-memcg
vmstats. So it can lead to inaccurate statistics of "slab_unreclaimable"
which is from memory.stat. Fix it by using mod_lruvec_page_state instead
of mod_node_page_state.

In general it's unknown in advance if a slab page will contain accounted
objects or not. In order to avoid memory waste, an obj_cgroup vector is
allocated dynamically when a need to account of a new object arises. Such
approach is memory efficient, but requires an expensive cmpxchg() to set
up the memcg/objcgs pointer, because an allocation can race with a
different allocation on another cpu.
But in some common cases it's known for sure that a slab page will contain
accounted objects: if the page belongs to a slab cache with a SLAB_ACCOUNT
flag set. It includes such popular objects like vm_area_struct, anon_vma,
task_struct, etc.
In such cases we can pre-allocate the objcgs vector and simple assign it
to the page without any atomic operations, because at this early stage the
page is not visible to anyone else.
A very simplistic benchmark (allocating 10000000 64-bytes objects in a
row) shows ~15% win. In the real life it seems that most workloads are
not very sensitive to the speed of (accounted) slab allocations.

In deactivate_slab() we currently move all but one objects on the cpu
freelist to the page freelist one by one using the costly cmpxchg_double()
operation. Then we unfreeze the page while moving the last object on page
freelist, with a final cmpxchg_double().
This can be optimized to avoid the cmpxchg_double() per object. Just
count the objects on cpu freelist (to adjust page->inuse properly) and
also remember the last object in the chain. Then splice page->freelist to
the last object and effectively add the whole cpu freelist to
page->freelist while unfreezing the page, with a single cmpxchg_double().

Since commit 03afc0e25f ("slab: get_online_mems for
kmem_cache_{create,destroy,shrink}") we are taking memory hotplug lock for
SLAB and SLUB when creating, destroying or shrinking a cache. It is quite
a heavy lock and it's best to avoid it if possible, as we had several
issues with lockdep complaining about ordering in the past, see e.g.
e4f8e513c3 ("mm/slub: fix a deadlock in show_slab_objects()").
The problem scenario in 03afc0e25f (solved by the memory hotplug lock)
can be summarized as follows: while there's slab_mutex synchronizing new
kmem cache creation and SLUB's MEM_GOING_ONLINE callback
slab_mem_going_online_callback(), we may miss creation of kmem_cache_node
for the hotplugged node in the new kmem cache, because the hotplug
callback doesn't yet see the new cache, and cache creation in
init_kmem_cache_nodes() only inits kmem_cache_node for nodes in the
N_NORMAL_MEMORY nodemask, which however may not yet include the new node,
as that happens only later after the MEM_GOING_ONLINE callback.
Instead of using get/put_online_mems(), the problem can be solved by SLUB
maintaining its own nodemask of nodes for which it has allocated the
per-node kmem_cache_node structures. This nodemask would generally mirror
the N_NORMAL_MEMORY nodemask, but would be updated only in under SLUB's
control in its memory hotplug callbacks under the slab_mutex. This patch
adds such nodemask and its handling.
Commit 03afc0e25f mentiones "issues like [the one above]", but there
don't appear to be further issues. All the paths (shared for SLAB and
SLUB) taking the memory hotplug locks are also taking the slab_mutex,
except kmem_cache_shrink() where 03afc0e25f replaced slab_mutex with
get/put_online_mems().
We however cannot simply restore slab_mutex in kmem_cache_shrink(), as
SLUB can enters the function from a write to sysfs 'shrink' file, thus
holding kernfs lock, and in kmem_cache_create() the kernfs lock is nested
within slab_mutex. But on closer inspection we don't actually need to
protect kmem_cache_shrink() from hotplug callbacks: While SLUB's
__kmem_cache_shrink() does for_each_kmem_cache_node(), missing a new node
added in parallel hotplug is not fatal, and parallel hotremove does not
free kmem_cache_node's anymore after the previous patch, so use-after free
cannot happen. The per-node shrinking itself is protected by
n->list_lock. Same is true for SLAB, and SLOB is no-op.
SLAB also doesn't need the memory hotplug locking, which it only gained by
03afc0e25f through the shared paths in slab_common.c. Its memory
hotplug callbacks are also protected by slab_mutex against races with
these paths. The problem of SLUB relying on N_NORMAL_MEMORY doesn't apply
to SLAB, as its setup_kmem_cache_nodes relies on N_ONLINE, and the new
node is already set there during the MEM_GOING_ONLINE callback, so no
special care is needed for SLAB.
As such, this patch removes all get/put_online_mems() usage by the slab
subsystem.

Patch series "mm, slab, slub: remove cpu and memory hotplug locks".
Some related work caused me to look at how we use get/put_mems_online()
and get/put_online_cpus() during kmem cache
creation/descruction/shrinking, and realize that it should be actually
safe to remove all of that with rather small effort (as e.g. Michal Hocko
suspected in some of the past discussions already). This has the benefit
to avoid rather heavy locks that have caused locking order issues already
in the past. So this is the result, Patches 2 and 3 remove memory hotplug
and cpu hotplug locking, respectively. Patch 1 is due to realization that
in fact some races exist despite the locks (even if not removed), but the
most sane solution is not to introduce more of them, but rather accept
some wasted memory in scenarios that should be rare anyway (full memory
hot remove), as we do the same in other contexts already.
This patch (of 3):
Commit e4f8e513c3 ("mm/slub: fix a deadlock in show_slab_objects()") has
fixed a problematic locking order by removing the memory hotplug lock
get/put_online_mems() from show_slab_objects(). During the discussion, it
was argued [1] that this is OK, because existing slabs on the node would
prevent a hotremove to proceed.
That's true, but per-node kmem_cache_node structures are not necessarily
allocated on the same node and may exist even without actual slab pages on
the same node. Any path that uses get_node() directly or via
for_each_kmem_cache_node() (such as show_slab_objects()) can race with
freeing of kmem_cache_node even with the !NULL check, resulting in
use-after-free.
To that end, commit e4f8e513c3 argues in a comment that:
* We don't really need mem_hotplug_lock (to hold off
* slab_mem_going_offline_callback) here because slab's memory hot
* unplug code doesn't destroy the kmem_cache->node[] data.
While it's true that slab_mem_going_offline_callback() doesn't free the
kmem_cache_node, the later callback slab_mem_offline_callback() actually
does, so the race and use-after-free exists. Not just for
show_slab_objects() after commit e4f8e513c3, but also many other places
that are not under slab_mutex. And adding slab_mutex locking or other
synchronization to SLUB paths such as get_any_partial() would be bad for
performance and error-prone.
The easiest solution is therefore to make the abovementioned comment true
and stop freeing the kmem_cache_node structures, accepting some wasted
memory in the full memory node removal scenario. Analogically we also
don't free hotremoved pgdat as mentioned in [1], nor the similar per-node
structures in SLAB. Importantly this approach will not block the
hotremove, as generally such nodes should be movable in order to succeed
hotremove in the first place, and thus the GFP_KERNEL allocated
kmem_cache_node will come from elsewhere.

If kmemleak is enabled, it uses a kmem cache for its own objects. These
objects are used to hold information kmemleak uses, including a stack
trace. If slub_debug is also turned on, each of them has *another* stack
trace, so the overhead adds up, and on my tests (on ARCH=um, admittedly)
2/3rds of the allocations end up being doing the stack tracing.
Turn off SLAB_STORE_USER if SLAB_NOLEAKTRACE was given, to avoid storing
the essentially same data twice.

We can use it to understand what the RCU core is going to free. For
example, some users maybe interested in when the RCU core starts
freeing reclaimable slabs like dentry to reduce memory pressure.

When creating a new kmem cache, SLUB determines how large the slab pages
will based on number of inputs, including the number of CPUs in the
system. Larger slab pages mean that more objects can be allocated/free
from per-cpu slabs before accessing shared structures, but also
potentially more memory can be wasted due to low slab usage and
fragmentation. The rough idea of using number of CPUs is that larger
systems will be more likely to benefit from reduced contention, and also
should have enough memory to spare.
Number of CPUs used to be determined as nr_cpu_ids, which is number of
possible cpus, but on some systems many will never be onlined, thus
commit 045ab8c948 ("mm/slub: let number of online CPUs determine the
slub page order") changed it to nr_online_cpus(). However, for kmem
caches created early before CPUs are onlined, this may lead to
permamently low slab page sizes.
Vincent reports a regression [1] of hackbench on arm64 systems:
"I'm facing significant performances regression on a large arm64
server system (224 CPUs). Regressions is also present on small arm64
system (8 CPUs) but in a far smaller order of magnitude
On 224 CPUs system : 9 iterations of hackbench -l 16000 -g 16
v5.11-rc4 : 9.135sec (+/- 0.45%)
v5.11-rc4 + revert this patch: 3.173sec (+/- 0.48%)
v5.10: 3.136sec (+/- 0.40%)"
Mel reports a regression [2] of hackbench on x86_64, with lockstat suggesting
page allocator contention:
"i.e. the patch incurs a 7% to 32% performance penalty. This bisected
cleanly yesterday when I was looking for the regression and then
found the thread.
Numerous caches change size. For example, kmalloc-512 goes from
order-0 (vanilla) to order-2 with the revert.
So mostly this is down to the number of times SLUB calls into the
page allocator which only caches order-0 pages on a per-cpu basis"
Clearly num_online_cpus() doesn't work too early in bootup. We could
change the order dynamically in a memory hotplug callback, but runtime
order changing for existing kmem caches has been already shown as
dangerous, and removed in 32a6f409b6 ("mm, slub: remove runtime
allocation order changes").
It could be resurrected in a safe manner with some effort, but to fix
the regression we need something simpler.
We could use num_present_cpus() that should be the number of physically
present CPUs even before they are onlined. That would work for PowerPC
[3], which triggered the original commit, but that still doesn't work on
arm64 [4] as explained in [5].
So this patch tries to determine the best available value without
specific arch knowledge.
- num_present_cpus() if the number is larger than 1, as that means the
arch is likely setting it properly
- nr_cpu_ids otherwise
This should fix the reported regressions while also keeping the effect
of 045ab8c948 for PowerPC systems. It's possible there are
configurations where num_present_cpus() is 1 during boot while
nr_cpu_ids is at the same time bloated, so these (if they exist) would
keep the large orders based on nr_cpu_ids as was before 045ab8c948.

There are kernel facilities such as per-CPU reference counts that give
error messages in generic handlers or callbacks, whose messages are
unenlightening. In the case of per-CPU reference-count underflow, this
is not a problem when creating a new use of this facility because in that
case the bug is almost certainly in the code implementing that new use.
However, trouble arises when deploying across many systems, which might
exercise corner cases that were not seen during development and testing.
Here, it would be really nice to get some kind of hint as to which of
several uses the underflow was caused by.
This commit therefore exposes a mem_dump_obj() function that takes
a pointer to memory (which must still be allocated if it has been
dynamically allocated) and prints available information on where that
memory came from. This pointer can reference the middle of the block as
well as the beginning of the block, as needed by things like RCU callback
functions and timer handlers that might not know where the beginning of
the memory block is. These functions and handlers can use mem_dump_obj()
to print out better hints as to where the problem might lie.
The information printed can depend on kernel configuration. For example,
the allocation return address can be printed only for slab and slub,
and even then only when the necessary debug has been enabled. For slab,
build with CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB=y, and either use sizes with ample space
to the next power of two or use the SLAB_STORE_USER when creating the
kmem_cache structure. For slub, build with CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG=y and
boot with slub_debug=U, or pass SLAB_STORE_USER to kmem_cache_create()
if more focused use is desired. Also for slub, use CONFIG_STACKTRACE
to enable printing of the allocation-time stack trace.

acquire_slab() fails if there is contention on the freelist of the page
(probably because some other CPU is concurrently freeing an object from
the page). In that case, it might make sense to look for a different page
(since there might be more remote frees to the page from other CPUs, and
we don't want contention on struct page).
However, the current code accidentally stops looking at the partial list
completely in that case. Especially on kernels without CONFIG_NUMA set,
this means that get_partial() fails and new_slab_objects() falls back to
new_slab(), allocating new pages. This could lead to an unnecessary
increase in memory fragmentation.

Kernel allocator code accesses metadata for slab objects, that may lie
out-of-bounds of the object itself, or be accessed when an object is
freed. Such accesses trigger tag faults and lead to false-positive
reports with hardware tag-based KASAN.
Software KASAN modes disable instrumentation for allocator code via
KASAN_SANITIZE Makefile macro, and rely on kasan_enable/disable_current()
annotations which are used to ignore KASAN reports.
With hardware tag-based KASAN neither of those options are available, as
it doesn't use compiler instrumetation, no tag faults are ignored, and MTE
is disabled after the first one.
Instead, reset tags when accessing metadata (currently only for SLUB).

The page order of the slab that gets chosen for a given slab cache depends
on the number of objects that can be fit in the slab while meeting other
requirements. We start with a value of minimum objects based on
nr_cpu_ids that is driven by possible number of CPUs and hence could be
higher than the actual number of CPUs present in the system. This leads
to calculate_order() chosing a page order that is on the higher side
leading to increased slab memory consumption on systems that have bigger
page sizes.
Hence rely on the number of online CPUs when determining the mininum
objects, thereby increasing the chances of chosing a lower conservative
page order for the slab.
Vlastimil said:
"Ideally, we would react to hotplug events and update existing caches
accordingly. But for that, recalculation of order for existing caches
would have to be made safe, while not affecting hot paths. We have
removed the sysfs interface with 32a6f409b6 ("mm, slub: remove
runtime allocation order changes") as it didn't seem easy and worth
the trouble.
In case somebody wants to start with a large order right from the
boot because they know they will hotplug lots of cpus later, they can
use slub_min_objects= boot param to override this heuristic. So in
case this change regresses somebody's performance, there's a way
around it and thus the risk is low IMHO"

The page allocator expects that page->mapping is NULL for a page being
freed. SLAB and SLUB use the slab_cache field which is in union with
mapping, but before freeing the page, the field is referenced with the
"mapping" name when set to NULL.
It's IMHO more correct (albeit functionally the same) to use the
slab_cache name as that's the field we use in SL*B, and document why we
clear it in a comment (we don't clear fields such as s_mem or freelist, as
page allocator doesn't care about those). While using the 'mapping' name
would automagically keep the code correct if the unions in struct page
changed, such changes should be done consciously and needed changes
evaluated - the comment should help with that.

The panic occurred in slab_alloc_node() when checking for the page's node:
object = c->freelist;
page = c->page;
if (unlikely(!object || !node_match(page, node))) {
object = __slab_alloc(s, gfpflags, node, addr, c);
stat(s, ALLOC_SLOWPATH);
The issue is that object is not NULL while page is NULL which is odd but
may happen if the cache flush happened after loading object but before
loading page. Thus checking for the page pointer is required too.
The cache flush is done through an inter processor interrupt when a
piece of memory is off-lined. That interrupt is triggered when a memory
hot-unplug operation is initiated and offline_pages() is calling the
slub's MEM_GOING_OFFLINE callback slab_mem_going_offline_callback()
which is calling flush_cpu_slab(). If that interrupt is caught between
the reading of c->freelist and the reading of c->page, this could lead
to such a situation. That situation is expected and the later call to
this_cpu_cmpxchg_double() will detect the change to c->freelist and redo
the whole operation.
In commit 6159d0f5c0 ("mm/slub.c: page is always non-NULL in
node_match()") check on the page pointer has been removed assuming that
page is always valid when it is called. It happens that this is not
true in that particular case, so check for page before calling
node_match() here.

The routine that applies debug flags to the kmem_cache slabs
inadvertantly prevents non-debug flags from being applied to those
same objects. That is, if slub_debug=<flag>,<slab> is specified,
non-debugged slabs will end up having flags of zero, and the slabs
may be unusable.
Fix this by including the input flags for non-matching slabs with the
contents of slub_debug, so that the caches are created as expected
alongside any debugging options that may be requested. With this, we
can remove the check for a NULL slub_debug_string, since it's covered
by the loop itself.

Commit 52f2347808 ("mm/slub.c: fix corrupted freechain in
deactivate_slab()") suffered an update when picked up from LKML [1].
Specifically, relocating 'freelist = NULL' into 'freelist_corrupted()'
created a no-op statement. Fix it by sticking to the behavior intended
in the original patch [1]. In addition, make freelist_corrupted()
immune to passing NULL instead of &freelist.
The issue has been spotted via static analysis and code review.

Instead of having two sets of kmem_caches: one for system-wide and
non-accounted allocations and the second one shared by all accounted
allocations, we can use just one.
The idea is simple: space for obj_cgroup metadata can be allocated on
demand and filled only for accounted allocations.
It allows to remove a bunch of code which is required to handle kmem_cache
clones for accounted allocations. There is no more need to create them,
accumulate statistics, propagate attributes, etc. It's a quite
significant simplification.
Also, because the total number of slab_caches is reduced almost twice (not
all kmem_caches have a memcg clone), some additional memory savings are
expected. On my devvm it additionally saves about 3.5% of slab memory.

Currently there are two lists of kmem_caches:
1) slab_caches, which contains all kmem_caches,
2) slab_root_caches, which contains only root kmem_caches.
And there is some preprocessor magic to have a single list if
CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM isn't enabled.
It was required earlier because the number of non-root kmem_caches was
proportional to the number of memory cgroups and could reach really big
values. Now, when it cannot exceed the number of root kmem_caches, there
is really no reason to maintain two lists.
We never iterate over the slab_root_caches list on any hot paths, so it's
perfectly fine to iterate over slab_caches and filter out non-root
kmem_caches.
It allows to remove a lot of config-dependent code and two pointers from
the kmem_cache structure.

This is fairly big but mostly red patch, which makes all accounted slab
allocations use a single set of kmem_caches instead of creating a separate
set for each memory cgroup.
Because the number of non-root kmem_caches is now capped by the number of
root kmem_caches, there is no need to shrink or destroy them prematurely.
They can be perfectly destroyed together with their root counterparts.
This allows to dramatically simplify the management of non-root
kmem_caches and delete a ton of code.
This patch performs the following changes:
1) introduces memcg_params.memcg_cache pointer to represent the
kmem_cache which will be used for all non-root allocations
2) reuses the existing memcg kmem_cache creation mechanism
to create memcg kmem_cache on the first allocation attempt
3) memcg kmem_caches are named <kmemcache_name>-memcg,
e.g. dentry-memcg
4) simplifies memcg_kmem_get_cache() to just return memcg kmem_cache
or schedule it's creation and return the root cache
5) removes almost all non-root kmem_cache management code
(separate refcounter, reparenting, shrinking, etc)
6) makes slab debugfs to display root_mem_cgroup css id and never
show :dead and :deact flags in the memcg_slabinfo attribute.
Following patches in the series will simplify the kmem_cache creation.

Store the obj_cgroup pointer in the corresponding place of
page->obj_cgroups for each allocated non-root slab object. Make sure that
each allocated object holds a reference to obj_cgroup.
Objcg pointer is obtained from the memcg->objcg dereferencing in
memcg_kmem_get_cache() and passed from pre_alloc_hook to post_alloc_hook.
Then in case of successful allocation(s) it's getting stored in the
page->obj_cgroups vector.
The objcg obtaining part look a bit bulky now, but it will be simplified
by next commits in the series.

This commit implements SLUB version of the obj_to_index() function, which
will be required to calculate the offset of obj_cgroup in the obj_cgroups
vector to store/obtain the objcg ownership data.
To make it faster, let's repeat the SLAB's trick introduced by commit
6a2d7a955d ("SLAB: use a multiply instead of a divide in
obj_to_index()") and avoid an expensive division.
Vlastimil Babka noticed, that SLUB does have already a similar function
called slab_index(), which is defined only if SLUB_DEBUG is enabled. The
function does a similar math, but with a division, and it also takes a
page address instead of a page pointer.
Let's remove slab_index() and replace it with the new helper
__obj_to_index(), which takes a page address. obj_to_index() will be a
simple wrapper taking a page pointer and passing page_address(page) into
__obj_to_index().

In order to prepare for per-object slab memory accounting, convert
NR_SLAB_RECLAIMABLE and NR_SLAB_UNRECLAIMABLE vmstat items to bytes.
To make it obvious, rename them to NR_SLAB_RECLAIMABLE_B and
NR_SLAB_UNRECLAIMABLE_B (similar to NR_KERNEL_STACK_KB).
Internally global and per-node counters are stored in pages, however memcg
and lruvec counters are stored in bytes. This scheme may look weird, but
only for now. As soon as slab pages will be shared between multiple
cgroups, global and node counters will reflect the total number of slab
pages. However memcg and lruvec counters will be used for per-memcg slab
memory tracking, which will take separate kernel objects in the account.
Keeping global and node counters in pages helps to avoid additional
overhead.
The size of slab memory shouldn't exceed 4Gb on 32-bit machines, so it
will fit into atomic_long_t we use for vmstats.

per-memcg cache can be different from the root one, so we can't use the

Prior to that commit, SLUB already had debugging check+warning that could
be enabled to compare the given kmem_cache pointer to one referenced by
the slab page where the object-to-be-freed resides. This check was moved
to cache_from_obj(). Later the check was also enabled for
SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED configs by commit 598a0717a8 ("mm/slab: validate

These checks and warnings can be useful especially for the debugging,
which can be improved. Commit 598a0717a8 changed the pr_err() with
WARN_ON_ONCE() to WARN_ONCE() so only the first hit is now reported,
others are silent. This patch changes it to WARN() so that all errors are
reported.
It's also useful to print SLUB allocation/free tracking info for the
offending object, if tracking is enabled. Thus, export the SLUB
print_tracking() function and provide an empty one for SLAB.
For SLUB we can also benefit from the static key check in
kmem_cache_debug_flags(), but we need to move this function to slab.h and
declare the static key there.

slab.h to separate instances in slab.c and slub.c, where the SLAB version
only does the kmemcg lookup and even could be completely removed once the
kmemcg rework [1] is merged. The SLUB version can thus easily use the
print_tracking() function. It can also use the kmem_cache_debug_flags()

One advantage of CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG is that a generic distro kernel can be
built with the option enabled, but it's inactive until simply enabled on
boot, without rebuilding the kernel. With a static key, we can further
eliminate the overhead of checking whether a cache has a particular debug
flag enabled if we know that there are no such caches (slub_debug was not
enabled during boot). We use the same mechanism also for e.g.
page_owner, debug_pagealloc or kmemcg functionality.
This patch introduces the static key and makes the general check for
per-cache debug flags kmem_cache_debug() use it. This benefits several
call sites, including (slow path but still rather frequent) __slab_free().
The next patches will add more uses.

The attribute reflects the SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT cache flag. It's not
clear why this attribute was writable in the first place, as it's tied to
how the cache is used by its creator, it's not a user tunable.
Furthermore:
- it affects slab merging, but that's not being checked while toggled
- if affects whether __GFP_RECLAIMABLE flag is used to allocate page, but
the runtime toggle doesn't update allocflags
- it affects cache_vmstat_idx() so runtime toggling might lead to incosistency
of NR_SLAB_RECLAIMABLE and NR_SLAB_UNRECLAIMABLE
Thus make it read-only.

SLUB_DEBUG creates several files under /sys/kernel/slab/<cache>/ that can
be read to check if the respective debugging options are enabled for given
cache. Some options, namely sanity_checks, trace, and failslab can be
also enabled and disabled at runtime by writing into the files.
The runtime toggling is racy. Some options disable __CMPXCHG_DOUBLE when
enabled, which means that in case of concurrent allocations, some can
still use __CMPXCHG_DOUBLE and some not, leading to potential corruption.
The s->flags field is also not updated or checked atomically. The
simplest solution is to remove the runtime toggling. The extended
slub_debug boot parameter syntax introduced by earlier patch should allow
to fine-tune the debugging configuration during boot with same
granularity.

SLUB allows runtime changing of page allocation order by writing into the
/sys/kernel/slab/<cache>/order file. Jann has reported [1] that this
interface allows the order to be set too small, leading to crashes.
While it's possible to fix the immediate issue, closer inspection reveals
potential races. Storing the new order calls calculate_sizes() which
non-atomically updates a lot of kmem_cache fields while the cache is still
in use. Unexpected behavior might occur even if the fields are set to the
same value as they were.
This could be fixed by splitting out the part of calculate_sizes() that
depends on forced_order, so that we only update kmem_cache.oo field. This
could still race with init_cache_random_seq(), shuffle_freelist(),
allocate_slab(). Perhaps it's possible to audit and e.g. add some
READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE accesses, it might be easier just to remove the
runtime order changes, which is what this patch does. If there are valid
usecases for per-cache order setting, we could e.g. extend the boot
parameters to do that.

SLUB_DEBUG creates several files under /sys/kernel/slab/<cache>/ that can
be read to check if the respective debugging options are enabled for given
cache. The options can be also toggled at runtime by writing into the
files. Some of those, namely red_zone, poison, and store_user can be
toggled only when no objects yet exist in the cache.
Vijayanand reports [1] that there is a problem with freelist randomization
if changing the debugging option's state results in different number of
objects per page, and the random sequence cache needs thus needs to be
recomputed.
However, another problem is that the check for "no objects yet exist in
the cache" is racy, as noted by Jann [2] and fixing that would add
overhead or otherwise complicate the allocation/freeing paths. Thus it
would be much simpler just to remove the runtime toggling support. The
documentation describes it's "In case you forgot to enable debugging on
the kernel command line", but the neccessity of having no objects limits
its usefulness anyway for many caches.
Vijayanand describes an use case [3] where debugging is enabled for all
but zram caches for memory overhead reasons, and using the runtime toggles
was the only way to achieve such configuration. After the previous patch
it's now possible to do that directly from the kernel boot option, so we
can remove the dangerous runtime toggles by making the /sys attribute
files read-only.
While updating it, also improve the documentation of the debugging /sys files.

Patch series "slub_debug fixes and improvements".
The slub_debug kernel boot parameter can either apply a single set of
options to all caches or a list of caches. There is a use case where
debugging is applied for all caches and then disabled at runtime for
specific caches, for performance and memory consumption reasons [1]. As
runtime changes are dangerous, extend the boot parameter syntax so that
multiple blocks of either global or slab-specific options can be
specified, with blocks delimited by ';'. This will also support the use
case of [1] without runtime changes.
For details see the updated Documentation/vm/slub.rst

kmalloc cannot allocate memory from HIGHMEM. Allocating large amounts of
memory currently bypasses the check and will simply leak the memory when
page_address() returns NULL. To fix this, factor the GFP_SLAB_BUG_MASK

order to make the code clear, the warning message is put in one place.

isn't used.

The accessor, ac_classzone_idx() is also removed since it isn't needed

In addition to integration, this patch also renames high_zoneidx to

There is no need to copy SLUB_STATS items from root memcg cache to new
memcg cache copies. Doing so could result in stack overruns because the
store function only accepts 0 to clear the stat and returns an error for
everything else while the show method would print out the whole stat.
Then, the mismatch of the lengths returns from show and store methods
happens in memcg_propagate_slab_attrs():
else if (root_cache->max_attr_size < ARRAY_SIZE(mbuf))
buf = mbuf;
max_attr_size is only 2 from slab_attr_store(), then, it uses mbuf[64]
in show_stat() later where a bounch of sprintf() would overrun the stack
variable. Fix it by always allocating a page of buffer to be used in
show_stat() if SLUB_STATS=y which should only be used for debug purpose.

And there it seems we take the list_lock and call kmalloc while holding

However, alloc_debug_processing() only checks the validity of current

page fault.
Below is from a test kernel module when 'slub_debug=PUF,kmalloc-128

In a recent discussion[1] with Vitaly Nikolenko and Silvio Cesare, it
became clear that moving the freelist pointer away from the edge of
allocations would likely improve the overall defensive posture of the
inline freelist pointer. My benchmarks show no meaningful change to
performance (they seem to show it being faster), so this looks like a
reasonable change to make.
Instead of having the freelist pointer at the very beginning of an
allocation (offset 0) or at the very end of an allocation (effectively
offset -sizeof(void *) from the next allocation), move it away from the
edges of the allocation and into the middle. This provides some
protection against small-sized neighboring overflows (or underflows), for
which the freelist pointer is commonly the target. (Large or well
controlled overwrites are much more likely to attack live object contents,
instead of attempting freelist corruption.)
The vaunted kernel build benchmark, across 5 runs. Before:
Mean: 250.05
Std Dev: 1.85
and after, which appears mysteriously faster:
Mean: 247.13
Std Dev: 0.76
Attempts at running "sysbench --test=memory" show the change to be well in
the noise (sysbench seems to be pretty unstable here -- it's not really
measuring allocation).
Hackbench is more allocation-heavy, and while the std dev is above the
difference, it looks like may manifest as an improvement as well:
20 runs of "hackbench -g 20 -l 1000", before:
Mean: 36.322
Std Dev: 0.577
and after:
Mean: 36.056
Std Dev: 0.598

Under CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED=y, the obfuscation was relatively weak
in that the ptr and ptr address were usually so close that the first XOR
would result in an almost entirely 0-byte value[1], leaving most of the
"secret" number ultimately being stored after the third XOR. A single
blind memory content exposure of the freelist was generally sufficient to
learn the secret.
Add a swab() call to mix bits a little more. This is a cheap way (1
cycle) to make attacks need more than a single exposure to learn the
secret (or to know _where_ the exposure is in memory).

possible numa nodes: 0-31
This only happens with a mmotm patch "mm/memcontrol.c: allocate
shrinker_map on appropriate NUMA node" [2] which effectively calls
kmalloc_node for each possible node. SLUB however only allocates
kmem_cache_node on online N_NORMAL_MEMORY nodes, and relies on
node_to_mem_node to return such valid node for other nodes since commit
a561ce00b0 ("slub: fall back to node_to_mem_node() node if allocating
on memoryless node"). This is however not true in this configuration
where the _node_numa_mem_ array is not initialized for nodes 0 and 2-31,
thus it contains zeroes and get_partial() ends up accessing
non-allocated kmem_cache_node.
A related issue was reported by Bharata (originally by Ramachandran) [3]
where a similar PowerPC configuration, but with mainline kernel without
patch [2] ends up allocating large amounts of pages by kmalloc-1k
kmalloc-512. This seems to have the same underlying issue with
node_to_mem_node() not behaving as expected, and might probably also
lead to an infinite loop with CONFIG_SLUB_CPU_PARTIAL [4].
This patch should fix both issues by not relying on node_to_mem_node()
anymore and instead simply falling back to NUMA_NO_NODE, when
kmalloc_node(node) is attempted for a node that's not online, or has no
usable memory. The "usable memory" condition is also changed from
node_present_pages() to N_NORMAL_MEMORY node state, as that is exactly
the condition that SLUB uses to allocate kmem_cache_node structures.
The check in get_partial() is removed completely, as the checks in
___slab_alloc() are now sufficient to prevent get_partial() being
reached with an invalid node.

This is just a cleanup addition to Jann's fix to properly update the
transaction ID for the slub slowpath in commit fd4d9c7d0c ("mm: slub:
add missing TID bump..").
The transaction ID is what protects us against any concurrent accesses,
but we should really also make sure to make the 'freelist' comparison
itself always use the same freelist value that we then used as the new
next free pointer.
Jann points out that if we do all of this carefully, we could skip the
transaction ID update for all the paths that only remove entries from
the lists, and only update the TID when adding entries (to avoid the ABA
issue with cmpxchg and list handling re-adding a previously seen value).
But this patch just does the "make sure to cmpxchg the same value we
used" rather than then try to be clever.

When kmem_cache_alloc_bulk() attempts to allocate N objects from a percpu
freelist of length M, and N > M > 0, it will first remove the M elements
from the percpu freelist, then call ___slab_alloc() to allocate the next
element and repopulate the percpu freelist. ___slab_alloc() can re-enable
IRQs via allocate_slab(), so the TID must be bumped before ___slab_alloc()
to properly commit the freelist head change.
Fix it by unconditionally bumping c->tid when entering the slowpath.

Commit 96a2b03f28 ("mm, debug_pagelloc: use static keys to enable
debugging") has introduced a static key to reduce overhead when
debug_pagealloc is compiled in but not enabled. It relied on the
assumption that jump_label_init() is called before parse_early_param()
as in start_kernel(), so when the "debug_pagealloc=on" option is parsed,
it is safe to enable the static key.
However, it turns out multiple architectures call parse_early_param()
earlier from their setup_arch(). x86 also calls jump_label_init() even
earlier, so no issue was found while testing the commit, but same is not
true for e.g. ppc64 and s390 where the kernel would not boot with
debug_pagealloc=on as found by our QA.
To fix this without tricky changes to init code of multiple
architectures, this patch partially reverts the static key conversion
from 96a2b03f28. Init-time and non-fastpath calls (such as in arch
code) of debug_pagealloc_enabled() will again test a simple bool
variable. Fastpath mm code is converted to a new
debug_pagealloc_enabled_static() variant that relies on the static key,
which is enabled in a well-defined point in mm_init() where it's
guaranteed that jump_label_init() has been called, regardless of
architecture.

The function doesn't need to return any value, and the check can be done
in one pass.
There is a behavior change: before the patch, we stop at the first invalid
free object; after the patch, we stop at the first invalid object, free or
in use. This shouldn't matter because the original behavior isn't
intended anyway.

fixed one problem with the slab walking but missed a key detail: When

end up reversing the list as a result. Without doing this, bulk free is
broken.
One way this is exposed is a NULL pointer with slub_debug=F:

slab_alloc_node() already zeroed out the freelist pointer if
init_on_free was on. Thibaut Sautereau noticed that the same needs to
be done for kmem_cache_alloc_bulk(), which performs the allocations
separately.
kmem_cache_alloc_bulk() is currently used in two places in the kernel,
so this change is unlikely to have a major performance impact.
SLAB doesn't require a similar change, as auto-initialization makes the
allocator store the freelist pointers off-slab.

A long time ago we fixed a similar deadlock in show_slab_objects() [1].
However, it is apparently due to the commits like 01fb58bcba ("slab:
remove synchronous synchronize_sched() from memcg cache deactivation
path") and 03afc0e25f ("slab: get_online_mems for
kmem_cache_{create,destroy,shrink}"), this kind of deadlock is back by
just reading files in /sys/kernel/slab which will generate a lockdep
splat below.
Since the "mem_hotplug_lock" here is only to obtain a stable online node
mask while racing with NUMA node hotplug, in the worst case, the results
may me miscalculated while doing NUMA node hotplug, but they shall be
corrected by later reads of the same files.

I think it is important to mention that this doesn't expose the
show_slab_objects to use-after-free. There is only a single path that
might really race here and that is the slab hotplug notifier callback
__kmem_cache_shrink (via slab_mem_going_offline_callback) but that path
doesn't really destroy kmem_cache_node data structures.

Patch series "guarantee natural alignment for kmalloc()", v2.
This patch (of 2):
SLOB currently doesn't account its pages at all, so in /proc/meminfo the
Slab field shows zero. Modifying a counter on page allocation and
freeing should be acceptable even for the small system scenarios SLOB is
intended for. Since reclaimable caches are not separated in SLOB,
account everything as unreclaimable.
SLUB currently doesn't account kmalloc() and kmalloc_node() allocations
larger than order-1 page, that are passed directly to the page
allocator. As they also don't appear in /proc/slabinfo, it might look
like a memory leak. For consistency, account them as well. (SLAB
doesn't actually use page allocator directly, so no change there).
Ideally SLOB and SLUB would be handled in separate patches, but due to
the shared kmalloc_order() function and different kfree()
implementations, it's easier to patch both at once to prevent
inconsistencies.

Currently, a value of '1" is written to /sys/kernel/slab/<slab>/shrink
file to shrink the slab by flushing out all the per-cpu slabs and free
slabs in partial lists. This can be useful to squeeze out a bit more
memory under extreme condition as well as making the active object counts
in /proc/slabinfo more accurate.
This usually applies only to the root caches, as the SLUB_MEMCG_SYSFS_ON
option is usually not enabled and "slub_memcg_sysfs=1" not set. Even if
memcg sysfs is turned on, it is too cumbersome and impractical to manage
all those per-memcg sysfs files in a real production system.
So there is no practical way to shrink memcg caches. Fix this by enabling
a proper write to the shrink sysfs file of the root cache to scan all the
available memcg caches and shrink them as well. For a non-root memcg
cache (when SLUB_MEMCG_SYSFS_ON or slub_memcg_sysfs is on), only that
cache will be shrunk when written.
On a 2-socket 64-core 256-thread arm64 system with 64k page after
a parallel kernel build, the the amount of memory occupied by slabs
before shrinking slabs were:
# grep task_struct /proc/slabinfo
task_struct 53137 53192 4288 61 4 : tunables 0 0
0 : slabdata 872 872 0
# grep "^S[lRU]" /proc/meminfo
Slab: 3936832 kB
SReclaimable: 399104 kB
SUnreclaim: 3537728 kB
After shrinking slabs (by echoing "1" to all shrink files):
# grep "^S[lRU]" /proc/meminfo
Slab: 1356288 kB
SReclaimable: 263296 kB
SUnreclaim: 1092992 kB

To properly clear the slab on free with slab_want_init_on_free, we walk
the list of free objects using get_freepointer/set_freepointer.
The value we get from get_freepointer may not be valid. This isn't an
issue since an actual value will get written later but this means
there's a chance of triggering a bug if we use this value with
set_freepointer:

Patch series "add init_on_alloc/init_on_free boot options", v10.
Provide init_on_alloc and init_on_free boot options.
These are aimed at preventing possible information leaks and making the
control-flow bugs that depend on uninitialized values more deterministic.
Enabling either of the options guarantees that the memory returned by the
page allocator and SL[AU]B is initialized with zeroes. SLOB allocator
isn't supported at the moment, as its emulation of kmem caches complicates
handling of SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU caches correctly.
Enabling init_on_free also guarantees that pages and heap objects are
initialized right after they're freed, so it won't be possible to access
stale data by using a dangling pointer.
As suggested by Michal Hocko, right now we don't let the heap users to
disable initialization for certain allocations. There's not enough
evidence that doing so can speed up real-life cases, and introducing ways
to opt-out may result in things going out of control.
This patch (of 2):
The new options are needed to prevent possible information leaks and make
control-flow bugs that depend on uninitialized values more deterministic.
This is expected to be on-by-default on Android and Chrome OS. And it
gives the opportunity for anyone else to use it under distros too via the
boot args. (The init_on_free feature is regularly requested by folks
where memory forensics is included in their threat models.)
init_on_alloc=1 makes the kernel initialize newly allocated pages and heap
objects with zeroes. Initialization is done at allocation time at the
places where checks for __GFP_ZERO are performed.
init_on_free=1 makes the kernel initialize freed pages and heap objects
with zeroes upon their deletion. This helps to ensure sensitive data
doesn't leak via use-after-free accesses.
Both init_on_alloc=1 and init_on_free=1 guarantee that the allocator
returns zeroed memory. The two exceptions are slab caches with
constructors and SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU flag. Those are never
zero-initialized to preserve their semantics.
Both init_on_alloc and init_on_free default to zero, but those defaults
can be overridden with CONFIG_INIT_ON_ALLOC_DEFAULT_ON and
CONFIG_INIT_ON_FREE_DEFAULT_ON.
If either SLUB poisoning or page poisoning is enabled, those options take
precedence over init_on_alloc and init_on_free: initialization is only
applied to unpoisoned allocations.
Slowdown for the new features compared to init_on_free=0, init_on_alloc=0:
hackbench, init_on_free=1: +7.62% sys time (st.err 0.74%)
hackbench, init_on_alloc=1: +7.75% sys time (st.err 2.14%)
Linux build with -j12, init_on_free=1: +8.38% wall time (st.err 0.39%)
Linux build with -j12, init_on_free=1: +24.42% sys time (st.err 0.52%)
Linux build with -j12, init_on_alloc=1: -0.13% wall time (st.err 0.42%)
Linux build with -j12, init_on_alloc=1: +0.57% sys time (st.err 0.40%)
The slowdown for init_on_free=0, init_on_alloc=0 compared to the baseline
is within the standard error.
The new features are also going to pave the way for hardware memory
tagging (e.g. arm64's MTE), which will require both on_alloc and on_free
hooks to set the tags for heap objects. With MTE, tagging will have the
same cost as memory initialization.
Although init_on_free is rather costly, there are paranoid use-cases where
in-memory data lifetime is desired to be minimized. There are various
arguments for/against the realism of the associated threat models, but
given that we'll need the infrastructure for MTE anyway, and there are
people who want wipe-on-free behavior no matter what the performance cost,
it seems reasonable to include it in this series.

Currently SLUB uses a work scheduled after an RCU grace period to
deactivate a non-root kmem_cache. This mechanism can be reused for
kmem_caches release, but requires generalization for SLAB case.
Introduce kmemcg_cache_deactivate() function, which calls
allocator-specific __kmem_cache_deactivate() and schedules execution of
__kmem_cache_deactivate_after_rcu() with all necessary locks in a worker
context after an rcu grace period.
Here is the new calling scheme:
kmemcg_cache_deactivate()
__kmemcg_cache_deactivate() SLAB/SLUB-specific
kmemcg_rcufn() rcu

Patch series "mm: reparent slab memory on cgroup removal", v7.
# Why do we need this?
We've noticed that the number of dying cgroups is steadily growing on most
of our hosts in production. The following investigation revealed an issue
in the userspace memory reclaim code [1], accounting of kernel stacks [2],
and also the main reason: slab objects.
The underlying problem is quite simple: any page charged to a cgroup holds
a reference to it, so the cgroup can't be reclaimed unless all charged
pages are gone. If a slab object is actively used by other cgroups, it
won't be reclaimed, and will prevent the origin cgroup from being
reclaimed.
Slab objects, and first of all vfs cache, is shared between cgroups, which
are using the same underlying fs, and what's even more important, it's
shared between multiple generations of the same workload. So if something
is running periodically every time in a new cgroup (like how systemd
works), we do accumulate multiple dying cgroups.
Strictly speaking pagecache isn't different here, but there is a key
difference: we disable protection and apply some extra pressure on LRUs of
dying cgroups, and these LRUs contain all charged pages. My experiments
show that with the disabled kernel memory accounting the number of dying
cgroups stabilizes at a relatively small number (~100, depends on memory
pressure and cgroup creation rate), and with kernel memory accounting it
grows pretty steadily up to several thousands.
Memory cgroups are quite complex and big objects (mostly due to percpu
stats), so it leads to noticeable memory losses. Memory occupied by dying
cgroups is measured in hundreds of megabytes. I've even seen a host with
more than 100Gb of memory wasted for dying cgroups. It leads to a
degradation of performance with the uptime, and generally limits the usage
of cgroups.
My previous attempt [3] to fix the problem by applying extra pressure on
slab shrinker lists caused a regressions with xfs and ext4, and has been
reverted [4]. The following attempts to find the right balance [5, 6]
were not successful.
So instead of trying to find a maybe non-existing balance, let's do
reparent accounted slab caches to the parent cgroup on cgroup removal.
# Implementation approach
There is however a significant problem with reparenting of slab memory:
there is no list of charged pages. Some of them are in shrinker lists,
but not all. Introducing of a new list is really not an option.
But fortunately there is a way forward: every slab page has a stable
pointer to the corresponding kmem_cache. So the idea is to reparent
kmem_caches instead of slab pages.
It's actually simpler and cheaper, but requires some underlying changes:
1) Make kmem_caches to hold a single reference to the memory cgroup,
instead of a separate reference per every slab page.
2) Stop setting page->mem_cgroup pointer for memcg slab pages and use
page->kmem_cache->memcg indirection instead. It's used only on
slab page release, so performance overhead shouldn't be a big issue.
3) Introduce a refcounter for non-root slab caches. It's required to
be able to destroy kmem_caches when they become empty and release
the associated memory cgroup.
There is a bonus: currently we release all memcg kmem_caches all together
with the memory cgroup itself. This patchset allows individual
kmem_caches to be released as soon as they become inactive and free.
Some additional implementation details are provided in corresponding
commit messages.
# Results
Below is the average number of dying cgroups on two groups of our
production hosts. They do run some sort of web frontend workload, the
memory pressure is moderate. As we can see, with the kernel memory
reparenting the number stabilizes in 60s range; however with the original
version it grows almost linearly and doesn't show any signs of plateauing.
The difference in slab and percpu usage between patched and unpatched
versions also grows linearly. In 7 days it exceeded 200Mb.

This patch (of 10):
Initialize kmem_cache->memcg_params.memcg pointer in memcg_link_cache()
rather than in init_memcg_params().
Once kmem_cache will hold a reference to the memory cgroup, it will
simplify the refcounting.
For non-root kmem_caches memcg_link_cache() is always called before the
kmem_cache becomes visible to a user, so it's safe.

Currently for CONFIG_SLUB, if a memcg kmem cache creation is failed and
the corresponding root kmem cache has SLAB_PANIC flag, the kernel will
be crashed. This is unnecessary as the kernel can handle the creation
failures of memcg kmem caches. Additionally CONFIG_SLAB does not
implement this behavior. So, to keep the behavior consistent between
SLAB and SLUB, removing the panic for memcg kmem cache creation
failures. The root kmem cache creation failure for SLAB_PANIC correctly
panics for both SLAB and SLUB.

Patch series "iommu/io-pgtable-arm-v7s: Use DMA32 zone for page tables",
v6.
This is a followup to the discussion in [1], [2].
IOMMUs using ARMv7 short-descriptor format require page tables (level 1
and 2) to be allocated within the first 4GB of RAM, even on 64-bit
systems.
For L1 tables that are bigger than a page, we can just use
__get_free_pages with GFP_DMA32 (on arm64 systems only, arm would still
use GFP_DMA).
For L2 tables that only take 1KB, it would be a waste to allocate a full
page, so we considered 3 approaches:
1. This series, adding support for GFP_DMA32 slab caches.
2. genalloc, which requires pre-allocating the maximum number of L2 page
tables (4096, so 4MB of memory).
3. page_frag, which is not very memory-efficient as it is unable to reuse
freed fragments until the whole page is freed. [3]
This series is the most memory-efficient approach.
stable@ note:
We confirmed that this is a regression, and IOMMU errors happen on 4.19
and linux-next/master on MT8173 (elm, Acer Chromebook R13). The issue
most likely starts from commit ad67f5a654 ("arm64: replace ZONE_DMA
with ZONE_DMA32"), i.e. 4.15, and presumably breaks a number of Mediatek
platforms (and maybe others?).
[1] https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/iommu/2018-November/030876.html
[2] https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/iommu/2018-December/031696.html
[3] https://patchwork.codeaurora.org/patch/671639/
This patch (of 3):
IOMMUs using ARMv7 short-descriptor format require page tables to be
allocated within the first 4GB of RAM, even on 64-bit systems. On arm64,
this is done by passing GFP_DMA32 flag to memory allocation functions.
For IOMMU L2 tables that only take 1KB, it would be a waste to allocate
a full page using get_free_pages, so we considered 3 approaches:
1. This patch, adding support for GFP_DMA32 slab caches.
2. genalloc, which requires pre-allocating the maximum number of L2
page tables (4096, so 4MB of memory).
3. page_frag, which is not very memory-efficient as it is unable
to reuse freed fragments until the whole page is freed.
This change makes it possible to create a custom cache in DMA32 zone using
kmem_cache_create, then allocate memory using kmem_cache_alloc.
We do not create a DMA32 kmalloc cache array, as there are currently no
users of kmalloc(..., GFP_DMA32). These calls will continue to trigger a
warning, as we keep GFP_DMA32 in GFP_SLAB_BUG_MASK.
This implies that calls to kmem_cache_*alloc on a SLAB_CACHE_DMA32
kmem_cache must _not_ use GFP_DMA32 (it is anyway redundant and
unnecessary).

When CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS is enabled, ptr_addr might be tagged. Normally,
this doesn't cause any issues, as both set_freepointer() and
get_freepointer() are called with a pointer with the same tag. However,
there are some issues with CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG code. For example, when
__free_slub() iterates over objects in a cache, it passes untagged
pointers to check_object(). check_object() in turns calls
get_freepointer() with an untagged pointer, which causes the freepointer
to be restored incorrectly.
Add kasan_reset_tag to freelist_ptr(). Also add a detailed comment.

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.

Right now we call kmemleak hooks before assigning tags to pointers in
KASAN hooks. As a result, when an objects gets allocated, kmemleak sees a
differently tagged pointer, compared to the one it sees when the object
gets freed. Fix it by calling KASAN hooks before kmemleak's ones.

An object constructor can initialize pointers within this objects based on
the address of the object. Since the object address might be tagged, we
need to assign a tag before calling constructor.
The implemented approach is to assign tags to objects with constructors
when a slab is allocated and call constructors once as usual. The
downside is that such object would always have the same tag when it is
reallocated, so we won't catch use-after-frees on it.
Also pressign tags for objects from SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU caches, since
they can be validy accessed after having been freed.

This commit splits the current CONFIG_KASAN config option into two:
1. CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC, that enables the generic KASAN mode (the one
that exists now);
2. CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS, that enables the software tag-based KASAN mode.
The name CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS is chosen as in the future we will have
another hardware tag-based KASAN mode, that will rely on hardware memory
tagging support in arm64.
With CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS enabled, compiler options are changed to
instrument kernel files with -fsantize=kernel-hwaddress (except the ones
for which KASAN_SANITIZE := n is set).
Both CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC and CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS support both
CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE and CONFIG_KASAN_OUTLINE instrumentation modes.
This commit also adds empty placeholder (for now) implementation of
tag-based KASAN specific hooks inserted by the compiler and adjusts
common hooks implementation.
While this commit adds the CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS config option, this option
is not selectable, as it depends on HAVE_ARCH_KASAN_SW_TAGS, which we will
enable once all the infrastracture code has been added.

patch handles that function separately, as it requires to reorder some of
the initialization code to correctly propagate a tagged pointer in case a
tag is assigned by kasan_kmalloc.

Patch series "kasan: add software tag-based mode for arm64", v13.
This patchset adds a new software tag-based mode to KASAN [1]. (Initially
this mode was called KHWASAN, but it got renamed, see the naming rationale
at the end of this section).
The plan is to implement HWASan [2] for the kernel with the incentive,
that it's going to have comparable to KASAN performance, but in the same
time consume much less memory, trading that off for somewhat imprecise bug
detection and being supported only for arm64.
The underlying ideas of the approach used by software tag-based KASAN are:
1. By using the Top Byte Ignore (TBI) arm64 CPU feature, we can store
pointer tags in the top byte of each kernel pointer.
2. Using shadow memory, we can store memory tags for each chunk of kernel
memory.
3. On each memory allocation, we can generate a random tag, embed it into
the returned pointer and set the memory tags that correspond to this
chunk of memory to the same value.
4. By using compiler instrumentation, before each memory access we can add
a check that the pointer tag matches the tag of the memory that is being
accessed.
5. On a tag mismatch we report an error.
With this patchset the existing KASAN mode gets renamed to generic KASAN,
with the word "generic" meaning that the implementation can be supported
by any architecture as it is purely software.
The new mode this patchset adds is called software tag-based KASAN. The
word "tag-based" refers to the fact that this mode uses tags embedded into
the top byte of kernel pointers and the TBI arm64 CPU feature that allows
to dereference such pointers. The word "software" here means that shadow
memory manipulation and tag checking on pointer dereference is done in
software. As it is the only tag-based implementation right now, "software
tag-based" KASAN is sometimes referred to as simply "tag-based" in this
patchset.
A potential expansion of this mode is a hardware tag-based mode, which
would use hardware memory tagging support (announced by Arm [3]) instead
of compiler instrumentation and manual shadow memory manipulation.
Same as generic KASAN, software tag-based KASAN is strictly a debugging
feature.

====== Rationale
On mobile devices generic KASAN's memory usage is significant problem.
One of the main reasons to have tag-based KASAN is to be able to perform a
similar set of checks as the generic one does, but with lower memory
requirements.
Comment from Vishwath Mohan <vishwath@google.com>:
I don't have data on-hand, but anecdotally both ASAN and KASAN have proven
problematic to enable for environments that don't tolerate the increased
memory pressure well. This includes
(a) Low-memory form factors - Wear, TV, Things, lower-tier phones like Go,
(c) Connected components like Pixel's visual core [1].
These are both places I'd love to have a low(er) memory footprint option at
my disposal.
Comment from Evgenii Stepanov <eugenis@google.com>:
Looking at a live Android device under load, slab (according to
/proc/meminfo) + kernel stack take 8-10% available RAM (~350MB). KASAN's
overhead of 2x - 3x on top of it is not insignificant.
Not having this overhead enables near-production use - ex. running
KASAN/KHWASAN kernel on a personal, daily-use device to catch bugs that do
not reproduce in test configuration. These are the ones that often cost
the most engineering time to track down.
CPU overhead is bad, but generally tolerable. RAM is critical, in our
experience. Once it gets low enough, OOM-killer makes your life
miserable.

====== Technical details
Software tag-based KASAN mode is implemented in a very similar way to the
generic one. This patchset essentially does the following:
1. TCR_TBI1 is set to enable Top Byte Ignore.
2. Shadow memory is used (with a different scale, 1:16, so each shadow
byte corresponds to 16 bytes of kernel memory) to store memory tags.
3. All slab objects are aligned to shadow scale, which is 16 bytes.
4. All pointers returned from the slab allocator are tagged with a random
tag and the corresponding shadow memory is poisoned with the same value.
5. Compiler instrumentation is used to insert tag checks. Either by
calling callbacks or by inlining them (CONFIG_KASAN_OUTLINE and
CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE flags are reused).
6. When a tag mismatch is detected in callback instrumentation mode
KASAN simply prints a bug report. In case of inline instrumentation,
clang inserts a brk instruction, and KASAN has it's own brk handler,
which reports the bug.
7. The memory in between slab objects is marked with a reserved tag, and
acts as a redzone.
8. When a slab object is freed it's marked with a reserved tag.
Bug detection is imprecise for two reasons:
1. We won't catch some small out-of-bounds accesses, that fall into the
same shadow cell, as the last byte of a slab object.
2. We only have 1 byte to store tags, which means we have a 1/256
probability of a tag match for an incorrect access (actually even
slightly less due to reserved tag values).
Despite that there's a particular type of bugs that tag-based KASAN can
detect compared to generic KASAN: use-after-free after the object has been
allocated by someone else.
====== Testing
Some kernel developers voiced a concern that changing the top byte of
kernel pointers may lead to subtle bugs that are difficult to discover.
To address this concern deliberate testing has been performed.
It doesn't seem feasible to do some kind of static checking to find
potential issues with pointer tagging, so a dynamic approach was taken.
All pointer comparisons/subtractions have been instrumented in an LLVM
compiler pass and a kernel module that would print a bug report whenever
two pointers with different tags are being compared/subtracted (ignoring
comparisons with NULL pointers and with pointers obtained by casting an
error code to a pointer type) has been used. Then the kernel has been
booted in QEMU and on an Odroid C2 board and syzkaller has been run.
This yielded the following results.
The two places that look interesting are:
is_vmalloc_addr in include/linux/mm.h
is_kernel_rodata in mm/util.c
Here we compare a pointer with some fixed untagged values to make sure
that the pointer lies in a particular part of the kernel address space.
Since tag-based KASAN doesn't add tags to pointers that belong to rodata
or vmalloc regions, this should work as is. To make sure debug checks to
those two functions that check that the result doesn't change whether we
operate on pointers with or without untagging has been added.
A few other cases that don't look that interesting:
Comparing pointers to achieve unique sorting order of pointee objects
(e.g. sorting locks addresses before performing a double lock):
tty_ldisc_lock_pair_timeout in drivers/tty/tty_ldisc.c
pipe_double_lock in fs/pipe.c
unix_state_double_lock in net/unix/af_unix.c
lock_two_nondirectories in fs/inode.c
mutex_lock_double in kernel/events/core.c
ep_cmp_ffd in fs/eventpoll.c
fsnotify_compare_groups fs/notify/mark.c
Nothing needs to be done here, since the tags embedded into pointers
don't change, so the sorting order would still be unique.
Checks that a pointer belongs to some particular allocation:
is_sibling_entry in lib/radix-tree.c
object_is_on_stack in include/linux/sched/task_stack.h
Nothing needs to be done here either, since two pointers can only belong
to the same allocation if they have the same tag.
Overall, since the kernel boots and works, there are no critical bugs.
As for the rest, the traditional kernel testing way (use until fails) is
the only one that looks feasible.
Another point here is that tag-based KASAN is available under a separate
config option that needs to be deliberately enabled. Even though it might
be used in a "near-production" environment to find bugs that are not found
during fuzzing or running tests, it is still a debug tool.
====== Benchmarks
The following numbers were collected on Odroid C2 board. Both generic and
tag-based KASAN were used in inline instrumentation mode.
Boot time [1]:
* ~1.7 sec for clean kernel
* ~5.0 sec for generic KASAN
* ~5.0 sec for tag-based KASAN
Network performance [2]:
* 8.33 Gbits/sec for clean kernel
* 3.17 Gbits/sec for generic KASAN
* 2.85 Gbits/sec for tag-based KASAN
Slab memory usage after boot [3]:
* ~40 kb for clean kernel
* ~105 kb (~260% overhead) for generic KASAN
* ~47 kb (~20% overhead) for tag-based KASAN
KASAN memory overhead consists of three main parts:
1. Increased slab memory usage due to redzones.
2. Shadow memory (the whole reserved once during boot).
3. Quaratine (grows gradually until some preset limit; the more the limit,
the more the chance to detect a use-after-free).
Comparing tag-based vs generic KASAN for each of these points:
1. 20% vs 260% overhead.
2. 1/16th vs 1/8th of physical memory.
3. Tag-based KASAN doesn't require quarantine.
[1] Time before the ext4 driver is initialized.
[2] Measured as `iperf -s & iperf -c 127.0.0.1 -t 30`.
[3] Measured as `cat /proc/meminfo | grep Slab`.
====== Some notes
A few notes:
1. The patchset can be found here:
https://github.com/xairy/kasan-prototype/tree/khwasan
2. Building requires a recent Clang version (7.0.0 or later).
3. Stack instrumentation is not supported yet and will be added later.
This patch (of 25):
Tag-based KASAN changes the value of the top byte of pointers returned
from the kernel allocation functions (such as kmalloc). This patch
updates KASAN hooks signatures and their usage in SLAB and SLUB code to
reflect that.
