mm, oom_adj: don't loop through tasks in __set_oom_adj when not necessary

2020-10-29T08:07:08Z

[ Upstream commit 67197a4f28d28d0b073ab0427b03cb2ee5382578 ] Currently __set_oom_adj loops through all processes in the system to keep oom_score_adj and oom_score_adj_min in sync between processes sharing their mm. This is done for any task with more that one mm_users, which includes processes with multiple threads (sharing mm and signals). However for such processes the loop is unnecessary because their signal structure is shared as well. Android updates oom_score_adj whenever a tasks changes its role (background/foreground/...) or binds to/unbinds from a service, making it more/less important. Such operation can happen frequently. We noticed that updates to oom_score_adj became more expensive and after further investigation found out that the patch mentioned in "Fixes" introduced a regression. Using Pixel 4 with a typical Android workload, write time to oom_score_adj increased from ~3.57us to ~362us. Moreover this regression linearly depends on the number of multi-threaded processes running on the system. Mark the mm with a new MMF_MULTIPROCESS flag bit when task is created with (CLONE_VM && !CLONE_THREAD && !CLONE_VFORK). Change __set_oom_adj to use MMF_MULTIPROCESS instead of mm_users to decide whether oom_score_adj update should be synchronized between multiple processes. To prevent races between clone() and __set_oom_adj(), when oom_score_adj of the process being cloned might be modified from userspace, we use oom_adj_mutex. Its scope is changed to global. The combination of (CLONE_VM && !CLONE_THREAD) is rarely used except for the case of vfork(). To prevent performance regressions of vfork(), we skip taking oom_adj_mutex and setting MMF_MULTIPROCESS when CLONE_VFORK is specified. Clearing the MMF_MULTIPROCESS flag (when the last process sharing the mm exits) is left out of this patch to keep it simple and because it is believed that this threading model is rare. Should there ever be a need for optimizing that case as well, it can be done by hooking into the exit path, likely following the mm_update_next_owner pattern. With the combination of (CLONE_VM && !CLONE_THREAD && !CLONE_VFORK) being quite rare, the regression is gone after the change is applied.

mm, oom: fix concurrent munlock and oom reaper unmap, v3

2018-05-16T08:10:27Z

commit 27ae357fa82be5ab73b2ef8d39dcb8ca2563483a upstream. Since exit_mmap() is done without the protection of mm->mmap_sem, it is possible for the oom reaper to concurrently operate on an mm until MMF_OOM_SKIP is set. This allows munlock_vma_pages_all() to concurrently run while the oom reaper is operating on a vma. Since munlock_vma_pages_range() depends on clearing VM_LOCKED from vm_flags before actually doing the munlock to determine if any other vmas are locking the same memory, the check for VM_LOCKED in the oom reaper is racy. This is especially noticeable on architectures such as powerpc where clearing a huge pmd requires serialize_against_pte_lookup(). If the pmd is zapped by the oom reaper during follow_page_mask() after the check for pmd_none() is bypassed, this ends up deferencing a NULL ptl or a kernel oops. Fix this by manually freeing all possible memory from the mm before doing the munlock and then setting MMF_OOM_SKIP. The oom reaper can not run on the mm anymore so the munlock is safe to do in exit_mmap(). It also matches the logic that the oom reaper currently uses for determining when to set MMF_OOM_SKIP itself, so there's no new risk of excessive oom killing. This issue fixes CVE-2018-1000200.

mm, oom_reaper: fix memory corruption

2017-12-20T09:10:18Z

commit 4837fe37adff1d159904f0c013471b1ecbcb455e upstream. David Rientjes has reported the following memory corruption while the oom reaper tries to unmap the victims address space BUG: Bad page map in process oom_reaper pte:6353826300000000 pmd:00000000 addr:00007f50cab1d000 vm_flags:08100073 anon_vma:ffff9eea335603f0 mapping: (null) index:7f50cab1d file: (null) fault: (null) mmap: (null) readpage: (null) CPU: 2 PID: 1001 Comm: oom_reaper Call Trace: unmap_page_range+0x1068/0x1130 __oom_reap_task_mm+0xd5/0x16b oom_reaper+0xff/0x14c kthread+0xc1/0xe0 Tetsuo Handa has noticed that the synchronization inside exit_mmap is insufficient. We only synchronize with the oom reaper if tsk_is_oom_victim which is not true if the final __mmput is called from a different context than the oom victim exit path. This can trivially happen from context of any task which has grabbed mm reference (e.g. to read /proc// file which requires mm etc.). The race would look like this oom_reaper oom_victim task mmget_not_zero do_exit mmput __oom_reap_task_mm mmput __mmput exit_mmap remove_vma unmap_page_range Fix this issue by providing a new mm_is_oom_victim() helper which operates on the mm struct rather than a task. Any context which operates on a remote mm struct should use this helper in place of tsk_is_oom_victim. The flag is set in mark_oom_victim and never cleared so it is stable in the exit_mmap path.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

2017-11-02T10:10:55Z

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches. Reviewed-by: Kate Stewart Reviewed-by: Philippe Ombredanne Reviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

mm, oom: fix potential data corruption when oom_reaper races with writer

2017-08-18T22:32:01Z

Wenwei Tao has noticed that our current assumption that the oom victim is dying and never doing any visible changes after it dies, and so the oom_reaper can tear it down, is not entirely true. __task_will_free_mem consider a task dying when SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT is set but do_group_exit sends SIGKILL to all threads _after_ the flag is set. So there is a race window when some threads won't have fatal_signal_pending while the oom_reaper could start unmapping the address space. Moreover some paths might not check for fatal signals before each PF/g-u-p/copy_from_user. We already have a protection for oom_reaper vs. PF races by checking MMF_UNSTABLE. This has been, however, checked only for kernel threads (use_mm users) which can outlive the oom victim. A simple fix would be to extend the current check in handle_mm_fault for all tasks but that wouldn't be sufficient because the current check assumes that a kernel thread would bail out after EFAULT from get_user*/copy_from_user and never re-read the same address which would succeed because the PF path has established page tables already. This seems to be the case for the only existing use_mm user currently (virtio driver) but it is rather fragile in general. This is even more fragile in general for more complex paths such as generic_perform_write which can re-read the same address more times (e.g. iov_iter_copy_from_user_atomic to fail and then iov_iter_fault_in_readable on retry). Therefore we have to implement MMF_UNSTABLE protection in a robust way and never make a potentially corrupted content visible. That requires to hook deeper into the PF path and check for the flag _every time_ before a pte for anonymous memory is established (that means all !VM_SHARED mappings). The corruption can be triggered artificially (http://lkml.kernel.org/r/201708040646.v746kkhC024636@www262.sakura.ne.jp) but there doesn't seem to be any real life bug report. The race window should be quite tight to trigger most of the time.

oom, suspend: fix oom_killer_disable vs. pm suspend properly

2016-10-08T01:46:27Z

Commit 74070542099c ("oom, suspend: fix oom_reaper vs. oom_killer_disable race") has workaround an existing race between oom_killer_disable and oom_reaper by adding another round of try_to_freeze_tasks after the oom killer was disabled. This was the easiest thing to do for a late 4.7 fix. Let's fix it properly now. After "oom: keep mm of the killed task available" we no longer have to call exit_oom_victim from the oom reaper because we have stable mm available and hide the oom_reaped mm by MMF_OOM_SKIP flag. So let's remove exit_oom_victim and the race described in the above commit doesn't exist anymore if. Unfortunately this alone is not sufficient for the oom_killer_disable usecase because now we do not have any reliable way to reach exit_oom_victim (the victim might get stuck on a way to exit for an unbounded amount of time). OOM killer can cope with that by checking mm flags and move on to another victim but we cannot do the same for oom_killer_disable as we would lose the guarantee of no further interference of the victim with the rest of the system. What we can do instead is to cap the maximum time the oom_killer_disable waits for victims. The only current user of this function (pm suspend) already has a concept of timeout for back off so we can reuse the same value there. Let's drop set_freezable for the oom_reaper kthread because it is no longer needed as the reaper doesn't wake or thaw any processes.

After "oom: keep mm of the killed task available" we can safely detect an oom victim by checking task->signal->oom_mm so we do not need the signal_struct counter anymore so let's get rid of it.

We can reuse MMF_OOM_REAPED and rename it to a more generic MMF_OOM_SKIP.

mm: oom: deduplicate victim selection code for memcg and global oom

2016-10-08T01:46:26Z

When selecting an oom victim, we use the same heuristic for both memory cgroup and global oom. The only difference is the scope of tasks to select the victim from. So we could just export an iterator over all memcg tasks and keep all oom related logic in oom_kill.c, but instead we duplicate pieces of it in memcontrol.c reusing some initially private functions of oom_kill.c in order to not duplicate all of it. That looks ugly and error prone, because any modification of select_bad_process should also be propagated to mem_cgroup_out_of_memory. Let's rework this as follows: keep all oom heuristic related code private to oom_kill.c and make oom_kill.c use exported memcg functions when it's really necessary (like in case of iterating over memcg tasks).
