2014-04-24kprobes, ftrace: Allow probing on some functionsMasami Hiramatsu
There is no need to prohibit probing on the functions used for preparation and uprobe only fetch functions. Those are safely probed because those are not invoked from kprobe's breakpoint/fault/debug handlers. So there is no chance to cause recursive exceptions. Following functions are now removed from the kprobes blacklist: update_bitfield_fetch_param free_bitfield_fetch_param kprobe_register FETCH_FUNC_NAME(stack, type) in trace_uprobe.c FETCH_FUNC_NAME(memory, type) in trace_uprobe.c FETCH_FUNC_NAME(memory, string) in trace_uprobe.c FETCH_FUNC_NAME(memory, string_size) in trace_uprobe.c FETCH_FUNC_NAME(file_offset, type) in trace_uprobe.c Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20140417081800.26341.56504.stgit@ltc230.yrl.intra.hitachi.co.jp Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

2014-04-24kprobes/x86: Call exception handlers directly from do_int3/do_debugMasami Hiramatsu
To avoid a kernel crash by probing on lockdep code, call kprobe_int3_handler() and kprobe_debug_handler()(which was formerly called post_kprobe_handler()) directly from do_int3 and do_debug. Currently kprobes uses notify_die() to hook the int3/debug exceptoins. Since there is a locking code in notify_die, the lockdep code can be invoked. And because the lockdep involves printk() related things, theoretically, we need to prohibit probing on such code, which means much longer blacklist we'll have. Instead, hooking the int3/debug for kprobes before notify_die() can avoid this problem. Anyway, most of the int3 handlers in the kernel are already called from do_int3 directly, e.g. ftrace_int3_handler, poke_int3_handler, kgdb_ll_trap. Actually only kprobe_exceptions_notify is on the notifier_call_chain.

2014-04-24kprobes: Introduce NOKPROBE_SYMBOL() macro to maintain kprobes blacklistMasami Hiramatsu
Introduce NOKPROBE_SYMBOL() macro which builds a kprobes blacklist at kernel build time. The usage of this macro is similar to EXPORT_SYMBOL(), placed after the function definition: NOKPROBE_SYMBOL(function); Since this macro will inhibit inlining of static/inline functions, this patch also introduces a nokprobe_inline macro for static/inline functions. In this case, we must use NOKPROBE_SYMBOL() for the inline function caller. When CONFIG_KPROBES=y, the macro stores the given function address in the "_kprobe_blacklist" section. Since the data structures are not fully initialized by the macro (because there is no "size" information), those are re-initialized at boot time by using kallsyms.

2014-04-24kprobes/x86: Allow to handle reentered kprobe on single-steppingMasami Hiramatsu
Since the NMI handlers(e.g. perf) can interrupt in the single stepping (or preparing the single stepping, do_debug etc.), we should consider a kprobe is hit in the NMI handler. Even in that case, the kprobe is allowed to be reentered as same as the kprobes hit in kprobe handlers (KPROBE_HIT_ACTIVE or KPROBE_HIT_SSDONE). The real issue will happen when a kprobe hit while another reentered kprobe is processing (KPROBE_REENTER), because we already consumed a saved-area for the previous kprobe.

Inferring the mount hierarchy correctly from /proc/mounts is hard when MS_MOVE may have been used, and the previous code did it wrongly. This change simplifies the logic to only require that /dev/shm be _on_ tmpfs (which can be checked trivially with statfs) rather than that it be a _mountpoint_ of tmpfs, since there isn't a compelling reason to be that strict. We also now check for tmpfs on whatever directory we ultimately use so that the user is better informed. This change also moves the more standard TMPDIR environment variable check ahead of the others. Applies to 3.12.

2014-04-20perf kvm: Fix 'Min time' counting in report commandAlexander Yarygin
Every event in the perf-kvm has a 'stats' structure, which contains max/min/average/etc times of handling this event. The problem is that the 'perf-kvm stat report' command always shows that 'min time' is 0us for every event. Example: # perf kvm stat report Analyze events for all VCPUs: VM-EXIT Samples Samples% Time% Min Time Max Time Avg time [..] 0xB2 MSCH 12 0.07% 0.00% 0us 8us 7.31us ( +- 2.11% ) 0xB2 CHSC 12 0.07% 0.00% 0us 18us 9.39us ( +- 9.49% ) 0xB2 STPX 8 0.05% 0.00% 0us 2us 1.88us ( +- 7.18% ) 0xB2 STSI 7 0.04% 0.00% 0us 44us 16.49us ( +- 38.20% ) [..] This happens because the 'stats' structure is not initialized and stats->min equals to 0. Lets initialize the structure for every event after its allocation using init_stats() function. This initializes stats->min to -1 and makes 'Min time' statistics counting work: # perf kvm stat report Analyze events for all VCPUs: VM-EXIT Samples Samples% Time% Min Time Max Time Avg time [..] 0xB2 MSCH 12 0.07% 0.00% 6us 8us 7.31us ( +- 2.11% ) 0xB2 CHSC 12 0.07% 0.00% 7us 18us 9.39us ( +- 9.49% ) 0xB2 STPX 8 0.05% 0.00% 1us 2us 1.88us ( +- 7.18% ) 0xB2 STSI 7 0.04% 0.00% 1us 44us 16.49us ( +- 38.20% ) [..] Signed-off-by: Alexander Yarygin <yarygin@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@de.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1397053319-2130-3-git-send-email-borntraeger@de.ibm.com [ Fixing the perf examples changelog output ] Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com>

In this function start offset is re-aligned to PAGE_SIZE by rounding_up to the next page boundary. Due to this rounding up, old data remains in the page cache when blocksize is less than page size and start offset is not aligned with page size. In case of collapse range, we need to align start offset to page size boundary by doing a round down operation instead of round up.

2014-04-18thp: close race between split and zap huge pagesKirill A. Shutemov
Sasha Levin has reported two THP BUGs[1][2]. I believe both of them have the same root cause. Let's look to them one by one. The first bug[1] is "kernel BUG at mm/huge_memory.c:1829!". It's BUG_ON(mapcount != page_mapcount(page)) in __split_huge_page(). From my testing I see that page_mapcount() is higher than mapcount here. I think it happens due to race between zap_huge_pmd() and page_check_address_pmd(). page_check_address_pmd() misses PMD which is under zap: CPU0 CPU1 zap_huge_pmd() pmdp_get_and_clear() __split_huge_page() anon_vma_interval_tree_foreach() __split_huge_page_splitting() page_check_address_pmd() mm_find_pmd() /* * We check if PMD present without taking ptl: no * serialization against zap_huge_pmd(). We miss this PMD, * it's not accounted to 'mapcount' in __split_huge_page(). */ pmd_present(pmd) == 0 BUG_ON(mapcount != page_mapcount(page)) // CRASH!!! page_remove_rmap(page) atomic_add_negative(-1, &page->_mapcount) The second bug[2] is "kernel BUG at mm/huge_memory.c:1371!". It's VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(!PageHead(page), page) in zap_huge_pmd(). This happens in similar way: CPU0 CPU1 zap_huge_pmd() pmdp_get_and_clear() page_remove_rmap(page) atomic_add_negative(-1, &page->_mapcount) __split_huge_page() anon_vma_interval_tree_foreach() __split_huge_page_splitting() page_check_address_pmd() mm_find_pmd() pmd_present(pmd) == 0 /* The same comment as above */ /* * No crash this time since we already decremented page->_mapcount in * zap_huge_pmd(). */ BUG_ON(mapcount != page_mapcount(page)) /* * We split the compound page here into small pages without * serialization against zap_huge_pmd() */ __split_huge_page_refcount() VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(!PageHead(page), page); // CRASH!!! So my understanding the problem is pmd_present() check in mm_find_pmd() without taking page table lock. The bug was introduced by me commit with commit 117b0791ac42. Sorry for that. :( Let's open code mm_find_pmd() in page_check_address_pmd() and do the check under page table lock. Note that __page_check_address() does the same for PTE entires if sync != 0. I've stress tested split and zap code paths for 36+ hours by now and don't see crashes with the patch applied. Before it took <20 min to trigger the first bug and few hours for second one (if we ignore first).

2014-04-18mm: use paravirt friendly ops for NUMA hinting ptesMel Gorman
David Vrabel identified a regression when using automatic NUMA balancing under Xen whereby page table entries were getting corrupted due to the use of native PTE operations. Quoting him Xen PV guest page tables require that their entries use machine addresses if the preset bit (_PAGE_PRESENT) is set, and (for successful migration) non-present PTEs must use pseudo-physical addresses. This is because on migration MFNs in present PTEs are translated to PFNs (canonicalised) so they may be translated back to the new MFN in the destination domain (uncanonicalised). pte_mknonnuma(), pmd_mknonnuma(), pte_mknuma() and pmd_mknuma() set and clear the _PAGE_PRESENT bit using pte_set_flags(), pte_clear_flags(), etc. In a Xen PV guest, these functions must translate MFNs to PFNs when clearing _PAGE_PRESENT and translate PFNs to MFNs when setting _PAGE_PRESENT. His suggested fix converted p[te|md]_[set|clear]_flags to using paravirt-friendly ops but this is overkill. He suggested an alternative of using p[te|md]_modify in the NUMA page table operations but this is does more work than necessary and would require looking up a VMA for protections. This patch modifies the NUMA page table operations to use paravirt friendly operations to set/clear the flags of interest. Unfortunately this will take a performance hit when updating the PTEs on CONFIG_PARAVIRT but I do not see a way around it that does not break Xen.
