There is a concurrency bug that may cause the wrong value to be loaded
when a CPU is modifying the maple tree.
CPU1:
mtree_insert_range()
mas_insert()
mas_store_root()
...
mas_root_expand()
...
rcu_assign_pointer(mas->tree->ma_root, mte_mk_root(mas->node));
ma_set_meta(node, maple_leaf_64, 0, slot); <---IP
CPU2:
mtree_load()
mtree_lookup_walk()
ma_data_end();
When CPU1 is about to execute the instruction pointed to by IP, the
ma_data_end() executed by CPU2 may return the wrong end position, which
will cause the value loaded by mtree_load() to be wrong.
An example of triggering the bug:
Add mdelay(100) between rcu_assign_pointer() and ma_set_meta() in
mas_root_expand().
static DEFINE_MTREE(tree);
int work(void *p) {
unsigned long val;
for (int i = 0 ; i< 30; ++i) {
val = (unsigned long)mtree_load(&tree, 8);
mdelay(5);
pr_info("%lu",val);
}
return 0;
}
mt_init_flags(&tree, MT_FLAGS_USE_RCU);
mtree_insert(&tree, 0, (void*)12345, GFP_KERNEL);
run_thread(work)
mtree_insert(&tree, 1, (void*)56789, GFP_KERNEL);
In RCU mode, mtree_load() should always return the value before or after
the data structure is modified, and in this example mtree_load(&tree, 8)
may return 56789 which is not expected, it should always return NULL. Fix
it by put ma_set_meta() before rcu_assign_pointer().

The above code should be changed to if (likely(offset < end)), which is
correct. This affects the correctness of ma_data_end(). Now it seems
that the final result will not be wrong, but it is best to change it.
This patch does not change the code as above, because it simplifies the

Dereferencing RCU objects within the RCU callback without the RCU check
has caused lockdep to complain. Fix the RCU dereferencing by using the
RCU callback lock to ensure the operation is safe.
Also stop creating a new lock to use for dereferencing during destruction
of the tree or subtree. Instead, pass through a pointer to the tree that
has the lock that is held for RCU dereferencing checking. It also does
not make sense to use the maple state in the freeing scenario as the tree
walk is a special case where the tree no longer has the normal encodings
and parent pointers.

During the development of the maple tree, the strategy of freeing multiple
nodes changed and, in the process, the pivots were reused to store
pointers to dead nodes. To ensure the readers see accurate pivots, the
writers need to mark the nodes as dead and call smp_wmb() to ensure any
readers can identify the node as dead before using the pivot values.
There were two places where the old method of marking the node as dead
without smp_wmb() were being used, which resulted in RCU readers seeing
the wrong pivot value before seeing the node was dead. Fix this race
condition by using mte_set_node_dead() which has the smp_wmb() call to
ensure the race is closed.
Add a WARN_ON() to the ma_free_rcu() call to ensure all nodes being freed
are marked as dead to ensure there are no other call paths besides the two
updated paths.
This is necessary for the RCU mode of the maple tree.

Patch series "Fix VMA tree modification under mmap read lock".
Syzbot reported a BUG_ON in mm/mmap.c which was found to be caused by an
inconsistency between threads walking the VMA maple tree. The
inconsistency is caused by the page fault handler modifying the maple tree
while holding the mmap_lock for read.
This only happens for stack VMAs. We had thought this was safe as it only
modifies a single pivot in the tree. Unfortunately, syzbot constructed a
test case where the stack had no guard page and grew the stack to abut the
next VMA. This causes us to delete the NULL entry between the two VMAs
and rewrite the node.
We considered several options for fixing this, including dropping the
mmap_lock, then reacquiring it for write; and relaxing the definition of
the tree to permit a zero-length NULL entry in the node. We decided the
best option was to backport some of the RCU patches from -next, which
solve the problem by allocating a new node and RCU-freeing the old node.
Since the problem exists in 6.1, we preferred a solution which is similar
to the one we intended to merge next merge window.
These patches have been in -next since next-20230301, and have received
intensive testing in Android as part of the RCU page fault patchset. They
were also sent as part of the "Per-VMA locks" v4 patch series. Patches 1
to 7 are bug fixes for RCU mode of the tree and patch 8 enables RCU mode
for the tree.
Performance v6.3-rc3 vs patched v6.3-rc3: Running these changes through
mmtests showed there was a 15-20% performance decrease in
will-it-scale/brk1-processes. This tests creating and inserting a single
VMA repeatedly through the brk interface and isn't representative of any
real world applications.
This patch (of 8):
ma_pivots() and ma_data_end() may be called with a dead node. Ensure to
that the node isn't dead before using the returned values.
This is necessary for RCU mode of the maple tree.

Patch series "Fix mas_skip_node() for mas_empty_area()", v2.
mas_empty_area() was incorrectly returning an error when there was room.
The issue was tracked down to mas_skip_node() using the incorrect
end-of-slot count. Instead of using the nodes hard limit, the limit of
data should be used.
mas_skip_node() was also setting the min and max to that of the child
node, which was unnecessary. Within these limits being set, there was
also a bug that corrupted the maple state's max if the offset was set to
the maximum node pivot. The bug was without consequence unless there was
a sufficient gap in the next child node which would cause an error to be
returned.
This patch set fixes these errors by removing the limit setting from
mas_skip_node() and uses the mas_data_end() for slot limits, and adds
tests for all failures discovered.
This patch (of 2):
mas_skip_node() is used to move the maple state to the node with a higher
limit. It does this by walking up the tree and increasing the slot count.
Since slot count may not be able to be increased, it may need to walk up
multiple times to find room to walk right to a higher limit node. The
limit of slots that was being used was the node limit and not the last
location of data in the node. This would cause the maple state to be
shifted outside actual data and enter an error state, thus returning
-EBUSY.
The result of the incorrect error state means that mas_awalk() would
return an error instead of finding the allocation space.
The fix is to use mas_data_end() in mas_skip_node() to detect the nodes
data end point and continue walking the tree up until it is safe to move
to a node with a higher limit.
The walk up the tree also sets the maple state limits so remove the buggy
code from mas_skip_node(). Setting the limits had the unfortunate side
effect of triggering another bug if the parent node was full and the there
was no suitable gap in the second last child, but room in the next child.
mas_skip_node() may also be passed a maple state in an error state from
mas_anode_descend() when no allocations are available. Return on such an
error state immediately.

Preallocations are common in the VMA code to avoid allocating under
certain locking conditions. The preallocations must also cover the
worst-case scenario. Removing the GFP_ZERO flag from the
kmem_cache_alloc() (and bulk variant) calls will reduce the amount of time
spent zeroing memory that may not be used. Only zero out the necessary
area to keep track of the allocations in the maple state. Zero the entire
node prior to using it in the tree.
This required internal changes to node counting on allocation, so the test
code is also updated.

It is possible to confuse the depth tracking in the maple state by
searching the same node for values. Fix the depth tracking by moving
where the depth is incremented closer to where the node changes level.
Also change the initial depth setting when using the root node.

Along the development cycle, the testing code support for module/in-kernel
compiles was removed. Restore this functionality by moving any internal
API tests to the userspace side, as well as threading tests. Fix the
lockdep issues and add a way to reduce memory usage so the tests can
complete with KASAN + memleak detection. Make the tests work on 32 bit
hosts where possible and detect 32 bit hosts in the radix test suite.

clang-analyzer reported some Dead Stores in mas_anode_descend(). Upon
inspection, there were a few clean ups that would make the code cleaner:
The count variable was set from the mt_slots array and then updated but
never used again. Just use the array reference directly.
Also stop updating the type since it isn't used after the update.
Stop setting the gaps pointer to NULL at the start since it is always
set before the loop begins.

There is a more direct and cleaner way of implementing the same functional
code. Remove the confusing and unnecessary use of pointers here.

Before the do-while loop in mtree_range_walk(), the variables next, min,
max need to be initialized. The variables last, prev_min and prev_max are
set within the loop body before they are eventually used after exiting the
loop body.
As it is a do-while loop, the loop body is executed at least once, so the
variables last, prev_min and prev_max do not need to be initialized before
the loop body.
Remove unneeded initialization of last and prev_min.
The needless initialization was reported by clang-analyzer as Dead Stores.
As the compiler already identifies these assignments as unneeded, it
optimizes the assignments away. Hence:
No functional change. No change in object code.

Patch series "Introducing the Maple Tree"
The maple tree is an RCU-safe range based B-tree designed to use modern
processor cache efficiently. There are a number of places in the kernel
that a non-overlapping range-based tree would be beneficial, especially
one with a simple interface. If you use an rbtree with other data
structures to improve performance or an interval tree to track
non-overlapping ranges, then this is for you.
The tree has a branching factor of 10 for non-leaf nodes and 16 for leaf
nodes. With the increased branching factor, it is significantly shorter
than the rbtree so it has fewer cache misses. The removal of the linked
list between subsequent entries also reduces the cache misses and the need
to pull in the previous and next VMA during many tree alterations.
The first user that is covered in this patch set is the vm_area_struct,
where three data structures are replaced by the maple tree: the augmented
rbtree, the vma cache, and the linked list of VMAs in the mm_struct. The
long term goal is to reduce or remove the mmap_lock contention.
The plan is to get to the point where we use the maple tree in RCU mode.
Readers will not block for writers. A single write operation will be
allowed at a time. A reader re-walks if stale data is encountered. VMAs
would be RCU enabled and this mode would be entered once multiple tasks
are using the mm_struct.

Sheer coincidence. We designed our tree with the intention of solving the
hardest problem first. Upon settling on a b-tree variant and a rough
outline, we researched ranged based b-trees and RCU b-trees and did find
that article. So it was nice to find reassurances that we were on the
right path, but our design choice of using ranges made that paper unusable
for us.
This patch (of 70):
The maple tree is an RCU-safe range based B-tree designed to use modern
processor cache efficiently. There are a number of places in the kernel

would be RCU enabled and this mode would be entered once multiple tasks
are using the mm_struct.
There is additional BUG_ON() calls added within the tree, most of which
are in debug code. These will be replaced with a WARN_ON() call in the
future. There is also additional BUG_ON() calls within the code which
will also be reduced in number at a later date. These exist to catch
things such as out-of-range accesses which would crash anyways.
