611806b4bf kasan: fix bug detection via ksize for HW_TAGS mode 
The currently existing kasan_check_read/write() annotations are intended
to be used for kernel modules that have KASAN compiler instrumentation
disabled. Thus, they are only relevant for the software KASAN modes that
rely on compiler instrumentation.

However there's another use case for these annotations: ksize() checks
that the object passed to it is indeed accessible before unpoisoning the
whole object. This is currently done via __kasan_check_read(), which is
compiled away for the hardware tag-based mode that doesn't rely on
compiler instrumentation. This leads to KASAN missing detecting some
memory corruptions.

Provide another annotation called kasan_check_byte() that is available
for all KASAN modes. As the implementation rename and reuse
kasan_check_invalid_free(). Use this new annotation in ksize().
To avoid having ksize() as the top frame in the reported stack trace
pass _RET_IP_ to __kasan_check_byte().

Also add a new ksize_uaf() test that checks that a use-after-free is
detected via ksize() itself, and via plain accesses that happen later.

96403bfe50 mm: memcontrol: fix slub memory accounting 
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.

59450bbc12 mm, slab, slub: stop taking cpu hotplug lock 
SLAB has been using get/put_online_cpus() around creating, destroying and
shrinking kmem caches since 95402b3829 ("cpu-hotplug: replace
per-subsystem mutexes with get_online_cpus()") in 2008, which is supposed
to be replacing a private mutex (cache_chain_mutex, called slab_mutex
today) with system-wide mechanism, but in case of SLAB it's in fact used
in addition to the existing mutex, without explanation why.

SLUB appears to have avoided the cpu hotplug lock initially, but gained it
due to common code unification, such as 20cea9683e ("mm, sl[aou]b: Move
kmem_cache_create mutex handling to common code").

Regardless of the history, checking if the hotplug lock is actually needed
today suggests that it's not, and therefore it's better to avoid this
system-wide lock and the ordering this imposes wrt other locks (such as
slab_mutex).

Specifically, in SLAB we have for_each_online_cpu() in do_tune_cpucache()
protected by slab_mutex, and cpu hotplug callbacks that also take the
slab_mutex, which is also taken by the common slab function that currently
also take the hotplug lock.  Thus the slab_mutex protection should be
sufficient.  Also per-cpu array caches are allocated for each possible
cpu, so not affected by their online/offline state.

In SLUB we have for_each_online_cpu() in functions that show statistics
and are already unprotected today, as racing with hotplug is not harmful.
Otherwise SLUB relies on percpu allocator.  The slub_cpu_dead() hotplug
callback takes the slab_mutex.

To sum up, this patch removes get/put_online_cpus() calls from slab as it
should be safe without further adjustments.

7e1fa93def mm, slab, slub: stop taking memory hotplug lock 
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.

8e7f37f2aa mm: Add mem_dump_obj() to print source of memory block 
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.

e86f8b09f2 kasan, mm: allow cache merging with no metadata 
The reason cache merging is disabled with KASAN is because KASAN puts its
metadata right after the allocated object. When the merged caches have
slightly different sizes, the metadata ends up in different places, which
KASAN doesn't support.

It might be possible to adjust the metadata allocation algorithm and make
it friendly to the cache merging code. Instead this change takes a simpler
approach and allows merging caches when no metadata is present. Which is
the case for hardware tag-based KASAN with kasan.mode=prod.

15d5de496b mm: slab: clarify krealloc()'s behavior with __GFP_ZERO 
Patch series "slab: provide and use krealloc_array()", v3.

Andy brought to my attention the fact that users allocating an array of
equally sized elements should check if the size multiplication doesn't
overflow.  This is why we have helpers like kmalloc_array().

However we don't have krealloc_array() equivalent and there are many users
who do their own multiplication when calling krealloc() for arrays.

This series provides krealloc_array() and uses it in a couple places.

A separate series will follow adding devm_krealloc_array() which is needed
in the xilinx adc driver.

This patch (of 9):

__GFP_ZERO is ignored by krealloc() (unless we fall-back to kmalloc()
path, in which case it's honored).  Point that out in the kerneldoc.

10befea91b mm: memcg/slab: use a single set of kmem_caches for all allocations 
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.

c7094406fc mm: memcg/slab: deprecate slab_root_caches 
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.

272911a4ad mm: memcg/slab: remove memcg_kmem_get_cache() 
The memcg_kmem_get_cache() function became really trivial, so let's just
inline it into the single call point: memcg_slab_pre_alloc_hook().

It will make the code less bulky and can also help the compiler to
generate a better code.

d797b7d054 mm: memcg/slab: simplify memcg cache creation 
Because the number of non-root kmem_caches doesn't depend on the number of
memory cgroups anymore and is generally not very big, there is no more
need for a dedicated workqueue.

Also, as there is no more need to pass any arguments to the
memcg_create_kmem_cache() except the root kmem_cache, it's possible to
just embed the work structure into the kmem_cache and avoid the dynamic
allocation of the work structure.

This will also simplify the synchronization: for each root kmem_cache
there is only one work.  So there will be no more concurrent attempts to
create a non-root kmem_cache for a root kmem_cache: the second and all
following attempts to queue the work will fail.

On the kmem_cache destruction path there is no more need to call the
expensive flush_workqueue() and wait for all pending works to be finished.
Instead, cancel_work_sync() can be used to cancel/wait for only one work.

9855609bde mm: memcg/slab: use a single set of kmem_caches for all accounted allocations 
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.

4330a26bc4 mm: memcg/slab: deprecate memory.kmem.slabinfo 
Deprecate memory.kmem.slabinfo.

An empty file will be presented if corresponding config options are
enabled.

The interface is implementation dependent, isn't present in cgroup v2, and
is generally useful only for core mm debugging purposes.  In other words,
it doesn't provide any value for the absolute majority of users.

A drgn-based replacement can be found in
tools/cgroup/memcg_slabinfo.py.  It does support cgroup v1 and v2,
mimics memory.kmem.slabinfo output and also allows to get any
additional information without a need to recompile the kernel.

If a drgn-based solution is too slow for a task, a bpf-based tracing tool
can be used, which can easily keep track of all slab allocations belonging
to a memory cgroup.

d42f3245c7 mm: memcg: convert vmstat slab counters to bytes 
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.

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.

453431a549 mm, treewide: rename kzfree() to kfree_sensitive() 
As said by Linus:

  A symmetric naming is only helpful if it implies symmetries in use.
  Otherwise it's actively misleading.

  In "kzalloc()", the z is meaningful and an important part of what the
  caller wants.

  In "kzfree()", the z is actively detrimental, because maybe in the
  future we really _might_ want to use that "memfill(0xdeadbeef)" or
  something. The "zero" part of the interface isn't even _relevant_.

The main reason that kzfree() exists is to clear sensitive information
that should not be leaked to other future users of the same memory
objects.

Rename kzfree() to kfree_sensitive() to follow the example of the recently
added kvfree_sensitive() and make the intention of the API more explicit.
In addition, memzero_explicit() is used to clear the memory to make sure
that it won't get optimized away by the compiler.

The renaming is done by using the command sequence:

  git grep -w --name-only kzfree |\
  xargs sed -i 's/kzfree/kfree_sensitive/'

followed by some editing of the kfree_sensitive() kerneldoc and adding
a kzfree backward compatibility macro in slab.h.

d38a2b7a9c mm: memcg/slab: fix memory leak at non-root kmem_cache destroy 
If the kmem_cache refcount is greater than one, we should not mark the
root kmem_cache as dying.  If we mark the root kmem_cache dying
incorrectly, the non-root kmem_cache can never be destroyed.  It
resulted in memory leak when memcg was destroyed.  We can use the
following steps to reproduce.

  1) Use kmem_cache_create() to create a new kmem_cache named A.
  2) Coincidentally, the kmem_cache A is an alias for kmem_cache B,
     so the refcount of B is just increased.
  3) Use kmem_cache_destroy() to destroy the kmem_cache A, just
     decrease the B's refcount but mark the B as dying.
  4) Create a new memory cgroup and alloc memory from the kmem_cache
     B. It leads to create a non-root kmem_cache for allocating memory.
  5) When destroy the memory cgroup created in the step 4), the
     non-root kmem_cache can never be destroyed.

If we repeat steps 4) and 5), this will cause a lot of memory leak.  So
only when refcount reach zero, we mark the root kmem_cache as dying.

8982ae527f mm/slab: use memzero_explicit() in kzfree() 
The kzfree() function is normally used to clear some sensitive
information, like encryption keys, in the buffer before freeing it back to
the pool.  Memset() is currently used for buffer clearing.  However
unlikely, there is still a non-zero probability that the compiler may
choose to optimize away the memory clearing especially if LTO is being
used in the future.

To make sure that this optimization will never happen,
memzero_explicit(), which is introduced in v3.18, is now used in
kzfree() to future-proof it.

49f2d2419d usercopy: mark dma-kmalloc caches as usercopy caches 
We have seen a "usercopy: Kernel memory overwrite attempt detected to
SLUB object 'dma-kmalloc-1 k' (offset 0, size 11)!" error on s390x, as
IUCV uses kmalloc() with __GFP_DMA because of memory address
restrictions.  The issue has been discussed [2] and it has been noted
that if all the kmalloc caches are marked as usercopy, there's little
reason not to mark dma-kmalloc caches too.  The 'dma' part merely means
that __GFP_DMA is used to restrict memory address range.

As Jann Horn put it [3]:
 "I think dma-kmalloc slabs should be handled the same way as normal
  kmalloc slabs. When a dma-kmalloc allocation is freshly created, it is
  just normal kernel memory - even if it might later be used for DMA -,
  and it should be perfectly fine to copy_from_user() into such
  allocations at that point, and to copy_to_user() out of them at the
  end. If you look at the places where such allocations are created, you
  can see things like kmemdup(), memcpy() and so on - all normal
  operations that shouldn't conceptually be different from usercopy in
  any relevant way."

Thus this patch marks the dma-kmalloc-* caches as usercopy.

d919b33daf proc: faster open/read/close with "permanent" files 
Now that "struct proc_ops" exist we can start putting there stuff which
could not fly with VFS "struct file_operations"...

Most of fs/proc/inode.c file is dedicated to make open/read/.../close
reliable in the event of disappearing /proc entries which usually happens
if module is getting removed.  Files like /proc/cpuinfo which never
disappear simply do not need such protection.

Save 2 atomic ops, 1 allocation, 1 free per open/read/close sequence for such
"permanent" files.

Enable "permanent" flag for

	/proc/cpuinfo
	/proc/kmsg
	/proc/modules
	/proc/slabinfo
	/proc/stat
	/proc/sysvipc/*
	/proc/swaps

More will come once I figure out foolproof way to prevent out module
authors from marking their stuff "permanent" for performance reasons
when it is not.

This should help with scalability: benchmark is "read /proc/cpuinfo R times
by N threads scattered over the system".

That's because kmem_caches is defined only when CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM is set,
while memcg_slab_start() will use it no matter CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM is defined
or not.

By the way, the reason I mannuly undefined CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM is to verify
whether my some other code change is still stable when CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM is
not set. Unfortunately, the existing code has been already unstable since
v4.11.

  x2apic: IRQ remapping doesn't support X2APIC mode

The warning is caused by the calling of 'kmem_cache_destroy()'
in free_iommu_resources(). Here is the call path:

  free_iommu_resources
    kmem_cache_destroy
      flush_memcg_workqueue
        flush_workqueue

The root cause is that the IOMMU subsystem runs before the workqueue
subsystem, which the variable 'wq_online' is still 'false'.  This leads
to the statement 'if (WARN_ON(!wq_online))' in flush_workqueue() is
'true'.

Since the variable 'memcg_kmem_cache_wq' is not allocated during the
time, it is unnecessary to call flush_memcg_workqueue().  This prevents
the WARNING message triggered by flush_workqueue().

The problem occurs because kmem_cache_destroy() is called immediately
after deleting of a memcg, so it races with the memcg kmem_cache
deactivation.

flush_memcg_workqueue() at the beginning of kmem_cache_destroy() is
supposed to guarantee that all deactivation processes are finished, but
failed to do so.  It waits for an rcu grace period, after which all
children kmem_caches should be deactivated.  During the deactivation
percpu_ref_kill() is called for non root kmem_cache refcounters, but it
requires yet another rcu grace period to finish the transition to the
atomic (dead) state.

So in a rare case when not all children kmem_caches are destroyed at the
moment when the root kmem_cache is about to be gone, we need to wait
another rcu grace period before destroying the root kmem_cache.

This issue can be triggered only with dynamically created kmem_caches
which are used with memcg accounting.  In this case per-memcg child
kmem_caches are created.  They are deactivated from the cgroup removing
path.  If the destruction of the root kmem_cache is racing with the
removal of the cgroup (both are quite complicated multi-stage
processes), the described issue can occur.  The only known way to
trigger it in the real life, is to unload some kernel module which
creates a dedicated kmem_cache, used from different memory cgroups with
GFP_ACCOUNT flag.  If the unloading happens immediately after calling
rmdir on the corresponding cgroup, there is some chance to trigger the
issue.

cb5d9fb38c mm, slab: make kmalloc_info[] contain all types of names 
Patch series "mm, slab: Make kmalloc_info[] contain all types of names", v6.

There are three types of kmalloc, KMALLOC_NORMAL, KMALLOC_RECLAIM
and KMALLOC_DMA.

The name of KMALLOC_NORMAL is contained in kmalloc_info[].name,
but the names of KMALLOC_RECLAIM and KMALLOC_DMA are dynamically
generated by kmalloc_cache_name().

Patch1 predefines the names of all types of kmalloc to save
the time spent dynamically generating names.

These changes make sense, and the time spent by new_kmalloc_cache()
has been reduced by approximately 36.3%.

                         Time spent by new_kmalloc_cache()
                                  (CPU cycles)

5.3-rc7+patch                        42188

This patch (of 3):

There are three types of kmalloc, KMALLOC_NORMAL, KMALLOC_RECLAIM and
KMALLOC_DMA.

The name of KMALLOC_NORMAL is contained in kmalloc_info[].name, but the
names of KMALLOC_RECLAIM and KMALLOC_DMA are dynamically generated by
kmalloc_cache_name().

This patch predefines the names of all types of kmalloc to save the time
spent dynamically generating names.

Besides, remove the kmalloc_cache_name() that is no longer used.

  Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt

The kernel panics on an attempt to dereference the NULL memcg pointer.
When shutdown_cache() is called from the kmem_cache_destroy() context, a
memcg kmem_cache might have empty slab pages in a partial list, which are
still charged to the memory cgroup.

These pages are released by free_partial() at the beginning of
shutdown_cache(): either directly or by scheduling a RCU-delayed work
(if the kmem_cache has the SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU flag).  The latter case
is when the reported panic can happen: memcg_unlink_cache() is called
immediately after shrinking partial lists, without waiting for scheduled
RCU works.  It sets the kmem_cache->memcg_params.memcg pointer to NULL,
and the following attempt to dereference it by __free_slab() from the
RCU work context causes the panic.

To fix the issue, let's postpone the release of the memcg pointer to
destroy_memcg_params().  It's called from a separate work context by
slab_caches_to_rcu_destroy_workfn(), which contains a full RCU barrier.
This guarantees that all scheduled page release RCU works will complete
before the memcg pointer will be zeroed.

Big thanks for Karsten for the perfect report containing all necessary
information, his help with the analysis of the problem and testing of the
fix.

59bb47985c mm, sl[aou]b: guarantee natural alignment for kmalloc(power-of-two) 
In most configurations, kmalloc() happens to return naturally aligned
(i.e.  aligned to the block size itself) blocks for power of two sizes.

That means some kmalloc() users might unknowingly rely on that
alignment, until stuff breaks when the kernel is built with e.g.
CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG or CONFIG_SLOB, and blocks stop being aligned.  Then
developers have to devise workaround such as own kmem caches with
specified alignment [1], which is not always practical, as recently
evidenced in [2].

The topic has been discussed at LSF/MM 2019 [3].  Adding a
'kmalloc_aligned()' variant would not help with code unknowingly relying
on the implicit alignment.  For slab implementations it would either
require creating more kmalloc caches, or allocate a larger size and only
give back part of it.  That would be wasteful, especially with a generic
alignment parameter (in contrast with a fixed alignment to size).

Ideally we should provide to mm users what they need without difficult
workarounds or own reimplementations, so let's make the kmalloc()
alignment to size explicitly guaranteed for power-of-two sizes under all
configurations.  What this means for the three available allocators?

* SLAB object layout happens to be mostly unchanged by the patch.  The
  implicitly provided alignment could be compromised with
  CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB due to redzoning, however SLAB disables redzoning for
  caches with alignment larger than unsigned long long.  Practically on at
  least x86 this includes kmalloc caches as they use cache line alignment,
  which is larger than that.  Still, this patch ensures alignment on all
  arches and cache sizes.

* SLUB layout is also unchanged unless redzoning is enabled through
  CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG and boot parameter for the particular kmalloc cache.
  With this patch, explicit alignment is guaranteed with redzoning as
  well.  This will result in more memory being wasted, but that should be
  acceptable in a debugging scenario.

* SLOB has no implicit alignment so this patch adds it explicitly for
  kmalloc().  The potential downside is increased fragmentation.  While
  pathological allocation scenarios are certainly possible, in my testing,
  after booting a x86_64 kernel+userspace with virtme, around 16MB memory
  was consumed by slab pages both before and after the patch, with
  difference in the noise.

6a486c0ad4 mm, sl[ou]b: improve memory accounting 
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.

04f768a39d mm, slab: extend slab/shrink to shrink all memcg caches 
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

 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

a07057dce2 mm/slab_common.c: work around clang bug #42570 
Clang gets rather confused about two variables in the same special
section when one of them is not initialized, leading to an assembler
warning later:

  /tmp/slab_common-18f869.s: Assembler messages:
  /tmp/slab_common-18f869.s:7526: Warning: ignoring changed section attributes for .data..ro_after_init

Adding an initialization to kmalloc_caches is rather silly here
but does avoid the issue.

fcf8a1e483 mm, memcg: add a memcg_slabinfo debugfs file 
There are concerns about memory leaks from extensive use of memory cgroups
as each memory cgroup creates its own set of kmem caches.  There is a
possiblity that the memcg kmem caches may remain even after the memory
cgroups have been offlined.  Therefore, it will be useful to show the
status of each of memcg kmem caches.

This patch introduces a new <debugfs>/memcg_slabinfo file which is
somewhat similar to /proc/slabinfo in format, but lists only information
about kmem caches that have child memcg kmem caches.  Information
available in /proc/slabinfo are not repeated in memcg_slabinfo.

A portion of a sample output of the file was:

  # <name> <css_id[:dead]> <active_objs> <num_objs> <active_slabs> <num_slabs>
  rpc_inode_cache   root          13     51      1      1

  fat_inode_cache     41           2     45      1      1
  xfs_inode         root         770    816     24     24

The css id of the memcg is also listed. If a memcg is not online,
the tag ":dead" will be attached as shown above.

fb2f2b0adb mm: memcg/slab: reparent memcg kmem_caches on cgroup removal 
Let's reparent non-root kmem_caches on memcg offlining.  This allows us to
release the memory cgroup without waiting for the last outstanding kernel
object (e.g.  dentry used by another application).

Since the parent cgroup is already charged, everything we need to do is to
splice the list of kmem_caches to the parent's kmem_caches list, swap the
memcg pointer, drop the css refcounter for each kmem_cache and adjust the
parent's css refcounter.

Please, note that kmem_cache->memcg_params.memcg isn't a stable pointer
anymore.  It's safe to read it under rcu_read_lock(), cgroup_mutex held,
or any other way that protects the memory cgroup from being released.

We can race with the slab allocation and deallocation paths.  It's not a
big problem: parent's charge and slab global stats are always correct, and
we don't care anymore about the child usage and global stats.  The child
cgroup is already offline, so we don't use or show it anywhere.

Local slab stats (NR_SLAB_RECLAIMABLE and NR_SLAB_UNRECLAIMABLE) aren't
used anywhere except count_shadow_nodes().  But even there it won't break
anything: after reparenting "nodes" will be 0 on child level (because
we're already reparenting shrinker lists), and on parent level page stats
always were 0, and this patch won't change anything.

f0a3a24b53 mm: memcg/slab: rework non-root kmem_cache lifecycle management 
Currently each charged slab page holds a reference to the cgroup to which
it's charged.  Kmem_caches are held by the memcg and are released all
together with the memory cgroup.  It means that none of kmem_caches are
released unless at least one reference to the memcg exists, which is very
far from optimal.

Let's rework it in a way that allows releasing individual kmem_caches as
soon as the cgroup is offline, the kmem_cache is empty and there are no
pending allocations.

To make it possible, let's introduce a new percpu refcounter for non-root
kmem caches.  The counter is initialized to the percpu mode, and is
switched to the atomic mode during kmem_cache deactivation.  The counter
is bumped for every charged page and also for every running allocation.
So the kmem_cache can't be released unless all allocations complete.

To shutdown non-active empty kmem_caches, let's reuse the work queue,
previously used for the kmem_cache deactivation.  Once the reference
counter reaches 0, let's schedule an asynchronous kmem_cache release.

* I used the following simple approach to test the performance
(stolen from another patchset by T. Harding):

    time find / -name fname-no-exist
    echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
    repeat 10 times

63b02ef7dc mm: memcg/slab: synchronize access to kmem_cache dying flag using a spinlock 
Currently the memcg_params.dying flag and the corresponding workqueue used
for the asynchronous deactivation of kmem_caches is synchronized using the
slab_mutex.

It makes impossible to check this flag from the irq context, which will be
required in order to implement asynchronous release of kmem_caches.

So let's switch over to the irq-save flavor of the spinlock-based
synchronization.

dead root kmem_cache, so no new memcg kmem_cache creation can be scheduled
after the flag is set.  And if it was scheduled before,
flush_memcg_workqueue() will wait for it anyway.

So let's drop this check to simplify the code.

4348669475 mm: memcg/slab: generalize postponed non-root kmem_cache deactivation 
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
      kmemcg_workfn()                            work
        __kmemcg_cache_deactivate_after_rcu()    SLAB/SLUB-specific

instead of:
  __kmemcg_cache_deactivate()                    SLAB/SLUB-specific
    slab_deactivate_memcg_cache_rcu_sched()      SLUB-only
      kmemcg_rcufn()                             rcu
        kmemcg_workfn()                          work
          kmemcg_cache_deact_after_rcu()         SLUB-only

For consistency, all allocator-specific functions start with "__".

0b14e8aa68 mm: memcg/slab: rename slab delayed deactivation functions and fields 
The delayed work/rcu deactivation infrastructure of non-root kmem_caches
can be also used for asynchronous release of these objects.  Let's get rid
of the word "deactivation" in corresponding names to make the code look
better after generalization.

It's easier to make the renaming first, so that the generalized code will
look consistent from scratch.

Let's rename struct memcg_cache_params fields:
  deact_fn -> work_fn
  deact_rcu_head -> rcu_head
  deact_work -> work

And RCU/delayed work callbacks in slab common code:
  kmemcg_deactivate_rcufn -> kmemcg_rcufn
  kmemcg_deactivate_workfn -> kmemcg_workfn

This patch contains no functional changes, only renamings.

c03914b7aa mm: memcg/slab: postpone kmem_cache memcg pointer initialization to memcg_link_cache() 
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.

0d4ca4c9ba mm/kasan: add object validation in ksize() 
ksize() has been unconditionally unpoisoning the whole shadow memory
region associated with an allocation.  This can lead to various undetected
bugs, for example, double-kzfree().

Specifically, kzfree() uses ksize() to determine the actual allocation
size, and subsequently zeroes the memory.  Since ksize() used to just
unpoison the whole shadow memory region, no invalid free was detected.

This patch addresses this as follows:

1. Add a check in ksize(), and only then unpoison the memory region.

2. Preserve kasan_unpoison_slab() semantics by explicitly unpoisoning
   the shadow memory region using the size obtained from __ksize().

Tested:
1. With SLAB allocator: a) normal boot without warnings; b) verified the
   added double-kzfree() is detected.
2. With SLUB allocator: a) normal boot without warnings; b) verified the
   added double-kzfree() is detected.

10d1f8cb39 mm/slab: refactor common ksize KASAN logic into slab_common.c 
This refactors common code of ksize() between the various allocators into
slab_common.c: __ksize() is the allocator-specific implementation without
instrumentation, whereas ksize() includes the required KASAN logic.
