mm: introduce CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM as combination of CONFIG_MEMCG && !CONFIG_SLOB

2018-08-17T23:20:30Z

Introduce new config option, which is used to replace repeating CONFIG_MEMCG && !CONFIG_SLOB pattern. Next patches add a little more memcg+kmem related code, so let's keep the defines more clearly.

slab, slub: skip unnecessary kasan_cache_shutdown()

2018-04-06T04:36:24Z

The kasan quarantine is designed to delay freeing slab objects to catch use-after-free. The quarantine can be large (several percent of machine memory size). When kmem_caches are deleted related objects are flushed from the quarantine but this requires scanning the entire quarantine which can be very slow. We have seen the kernel busily working on this while holding slab_mutex and badly affecting cache_reaper, slabinfo readers and memcg kmem cache creations. It can easily reproduced by following script: yes . | head -1000000 | xargs stat > /dev/null for i in `seq 1 10`; do seq 500 | (cd /cg/memory && xargs mkdir) seq 500 | xargs -I{} sh -c 'echo $BASHPID > \ /cg/memory/{}/tasks && exec stat .' > /dev/null seq 500 | (cd /cg/memory && xargs rmdir) done The busy stack: kasan_cache_shutdown shutdown_cache memcg_destroy_kmem_caches mem_cgroup_css_free css_free_rwork_fn process_one_work worker_thread kthread ret_from_fork This patch is based on the observation that if the kmem_cache to be destroyed is empty then there should not be any objects of this cache in the quarantine. Without the patch the script got stuck for couple of hours. With the patch the script completed within a second.

slab: make kmem_cache_create() work with 32-bit sizes

2018-04-06T04:36:23Z

struct kmem_cache::size and ::align were always 32-bit. Out of curiosity I created 4GB kmem_cache, it oopsed with division by 0. kmem_cache_create(1UL<<32+1) created 1-byte cache as expected. size_t doesn't work and never did.

2018-04-06T04:36:23Z

KMALLOC_MAX_CACHE_SIZE is 32-bit so is the largest kmalloc cache size. Christoph said: : : Ok SLABs maximum allocation size is limited to 32M (see : include/linux/slab.h: : : #define KMALLOC_SHIFT_HIGH ((MAX_ORDER + PAGE_SHIFT - 1) <= 25 ? \ : (MAX_ORDER + PAGE_SHIFT - 1) : 25) : : And SLUB/SLOB pass all larger requests to the page allocator anyways.

Merge tag 'usercopy-v4.16-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux

2018-02-04T00:25:42Z

Pull hardened usercopy whitelisting from Kees Cook: "Currently, hardened usercopy performs dynamic bounds checking on slab cache objects. This is good, but still leaves a lot of kernel memory available to be copied to/from userspace in the face of bugs. To further restrict what memory is available for copying, this creates a way to whitelist specific areas of a given slab cache object for copying to/from userspace, allowing much finer granularity of access control. Slab caches that are never exposed to userspace can declare no whitelist for their objects, thereby keeping them unavailable to userspace via dynamic copy operations. (Note, an implicit form of whitelisting is the use of constant sizes in usercopy operations and get_user()/put_user(); these bypass all hardened usercopy checks since these sizes cannot change at runtime.) This new check is WARN-by-default, so any mistakes can be found over the next several releases without breaking anyone's system. The series has roughly the following sections: - remove %p and improve reporting with offset - prepare infrastructure and whitelist kmalloc - update VFS subsystem with whitelists - update SCSI subsystem with whitelists - update network subsystem with whitelists - update process memory with whitelists - update per-architecture thread_struct with whitelists - update KVM with whitelists and fix ioctl bug - mark all other allocations as not whitelisted - update lkdtm for more sensible test overage" * tag 'usercopy-v4.16-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux: (38 commits) lkdtm: Update usercopy tests for whitelisting usercopy: Restrict non-usercopy caches to size 0 kvm: x86: fix KVM_XEN_HVM_CONFIG ioctl kvm: whitelist struct kvm_vcpu_arch arm: Implement thread_struct whitelist for hardened usercopy arm64: Implement thread_struct whitelist for hardened usercopy x86: Implement thread_struct whitelist for hardened usercopy fork: Provide usercopy whitelisting for task_struct fork: Define usercopy region in thread_stack slab caches fork: Define usercopy region in mm_struct slab caches net: Restrict unwhitelisted proto caches to size 0 sctp: Copy struct sctp_sock.autoclose to userspace using put_user() sctp: Define usercopy region in SCTP proto slab cache caif: Define usercopy region in caif proto slab cache ip: Define usercopy region in IP proto slab cache net: Define usercopy region in struct proto slab cache scsi: Define usercopy region in scsi_sense_cache slab cache cifs: Define usercopy region in cifs_request slab cache vxfs: Define usercopy region in vxfs_inode slab cache ufs: Define usercopy region in ufs_inode_cache slab cache ...

mm/slab_common.c: make calculate_alignment() static

usercopy: Mark kmalloc caches as usercopy caches

2018-01-15T20:07:49Z

Mark the kmalloc slab caches as entirely whitelisted. These caches are frequently used to fulfill kernel allocations that contain data to be copied to/from userspace. Internal-only uses are also common, but are scattered in the kernel. For now, mark all the kmalloc caches as whitelisted. This patch is modified from Brad Spengler/PaX Team's PAX_USERCOPY whitelisting code in the last public patch of grsecurity/PaX based on my understanding of the code. Changes or omissions from the original code are mine and don't reflect the original grsecurity/PaX code.
