sched/task_stack: fix object_is_on_stack() for KASAN tagged pointers

2025-01-02T09:32:07Z

[ Upstream commit fd7b4f9f46d46acbc7af3a439bb0d869efdc5c58 ] When CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS and CONFIG_KASAN_STACK are enabled, the object_is_on_stack() function may produce incorrect results due to the presence of tags in the obj pointer, while the stack pointer does not have tags. This discrepancy can lead to incorrect stack object detection and subsequently trigger warnings if CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS is also enabled. Example of the warning: ODEBUG: object 3eff800082ea7bb0 is NOT on stack ffff800082ea0000, but annotated. ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1 at lib/debugobjects.c:557 __debug_object_init+0x330/0x364 Modules linked in: CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 6.12.0-rc5 #4 Hardware name: linux,dummy-virt (DT) pstate: 600000c5 (nZCv daIF -PAN -UAO -TCO -DIT -SSBS BTYPE=--) pc : __debug_object_init+0x330/0x364 lr : __debug_object_init+0x330/0x364 sp : ffff800082ea7b40 x29: ffff800082ea7b40 x28: 98ff0000c0164518 x27: 98ff0000c0164534 x26: ffff800082d93ec8 x25: 0000000000000001 x24: 1cff0000c00172a0 x23: 0000000000000000 x22: ffff800082d93ed0 x21: ffff800081a24418 x20: 3eff800082ea7bb0 x19: efff800000000000 x18: 0000000000000000 x17: 00000000000000ff x16: 0000000000000047 x15: 206b63617473206e x14: 0000000000000018 x13: ffff800082ea7780 x12: 0ffff800082ea78e x11: 0ffff800082ea790 x10: 0ffff800082ea79d x9 : 34d77febe173e800 x8 : 34d77febe173e800 x7 : 0000000000000001 x6 : 0000000000000001 x5 : feff800082ea74b8 x4 : ffff800082870a90 x3 : ffff80008018d3c4 x2 : 0000000000000001 x1 : ffff800082858810 x0 : 0000000000000050 Call trace: __debug_object_init+0x330/0x364 debug_object_init_on_stack+0x30/0x3c schedule_hrtimeout_range_clock+0xac/0x26c schedule_hrtimeout+0x1c/0x30 wait_task_inactive+0x1d4/0x25c kthread_bind_mask+0x28/0x98 init_rescuer+0x1e8/0x280 workqueue_init+0x1a0/0x3cc kernel_init_freeable+0x118/0x200 kernel_init+0x28/0x1f0 ret_from_fork+0x10/0x20 ---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]--- ODEBUG: object 3eff800082ea7bb0 is NOT on stack ffff800082ea0000, but annotated. ------------[ cut here ]------------ Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20241113042544.19095-1-qun-wei.lin@mediatek.com Signed-off-by: Qun-Wei Lin Cc: Andrew Yang Cc: AngeloGioacchino Del Regno Cc: Casper Li Cc: Catalin Marinas Cc: Chinwen Chang Cc: Kent Overstreet Cc: Matthias Brugger Cc: Pasha Tatashin Cc: Shakeel Butt Cc: Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton [ Resolve line conflicts ] Signed-off-by: Wenshan Lan Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin

sched/numa: Complete scanning of inactive VMAs when there is no alternative

2024-10-04T14:29:22Z

[ Upstream commit f169c62ff7cd1acf8bac8ae17bfeafa307d9e6fa ] VMAs are skipped if there is no recent fault activity but this represents a chicken-and-egg problem as there may be no fault activity if the PTEs are never updated to trap NUMA hints. There is an indirect reliance on scanning to be forced early in the lifetime of a task but this may fail to detect changes in phase behaviour. Force inactive VMAs to be scanned when all other eligible VMAs have been updated within the same scan sequence. Test results in general look good with some changes in performance, both negative and positive, depending on whether the additional scanning and faulting was beneficial or not to the workload. The autonuma benchmark workload NUMA01_THREADLOCAL was picked for closer examination. The workload creates two processes with numerous threads and thread-local storage that is zero-filled in a loop. It exercises the corner case where unrelated threads may skip VMAs that are thread-local to another thread and still has some VMAs that inactive while the workload executes. The VMA skipping activity frequency with and without the patch: 6.6.0-rc2-sched-numabtrace-v1 ============================= 649 reason=scan_delay 9,094 reason=unsuitable 48,915 reason=shared_ro 143,919 reason=inaccessible 193,050 reason=pid_inactive 6.6.0-rc2-sched-numabselective-v1 ============================= 146 reason=seq_completed 622 reason=ignore_pid_inactive 624 reason=scan_delay 6,570 reason=unsuitable 16,101 reason=shared_ro 27,608 reason=inaccessible 41,939 reason=pid_inactive Note that with the patch applied, the PID activity is ignored (ignore_pid_inactive) to ensure a VMA with some activity is completely scanned. In addition, a small number of VMAs are scanned when no other eligible VMA is available during a single scan window (seq_completed). The number of times a VMA is skipped due to no PID activity from the scanning task (pid_inactive) drops dramatically. It is expected that this will increase the number of PTEs updated for NUMA hinting faults as well as hinting faults but these represent PTEs that would otherwise have been missed. The tradeoff is scan+fault overhead versus improving locality due to migration. On a 2-socket Cascade Lake test machine, the time to complete the workload is as follows; 6.6.0-rc2 6.6.0-rc2 sched-numabtrace-v1 sched-numabselective-v1 Min elsp-NUMA01_THREADLOCAL 174.22 ( 0.00%) 117.64 ( 32.48%) Amean elsp-NUMA01_THREADLOCAL 175.68 ( 0.00%) 123.34 * 29.79%* Stddev elsp-NUMA01_THREADLOCAL 1.20 ( 0.00%) 4.06 (-238.20%) CoeffVar elsp-NUMA01_THREADLOCAL 0.68 ( 0.00%) 3.29 (-381.70%) Max elsp-NUMA01_THREADLOCAL 177.18 ( 0.00%) 128.03 ( 27.74%) The time to complete the workload is reduced by almost 30%: 6.6.0-rc2 6.6.0-rc2 sched-numabtrace-v1 sched-numabselective-v1 / Duration User 91201.80 63506.64 Duration System 2015.53 1819.78 Duration Elapsed 1234.77 868.37 In this specific case, system CPU time was not increased but it's not universally true. From vmstat, the NUMA scanning and fault activity is as follows; 6.6.0-rc2 6.6.0-rc2 sched-numabtrace-v1 sched-numabselective-v1 Ops NUMA base-page range updates 64272.00 26374386.00 Ops NUMA PTE updates 36624.00 55538.00 Ops NUMA PMD updates 54.00 51404.00 Ops NUMA hint faults 15504.00 75786.00 Ops NUMA hint local faults % 14860.00 56763.00 Ops NUMA hint local percent 95.85 74.90 Ops NUMA pages migrated 1629.00 6469222.00 Both the number of PTE updates and hint faults is dramatically increased. While this is superficially unfortunate, it represents ranges that were simply skipped without the patch. As a result of the scanning and hinting faults, many more pages were also migrated but as the time to completion is reduced, the overhead is offset by the gain.

sched/numa: Complete scanning of partial VMAs regardless of PID activity

2024-10-04T14:29:22Z

[ Upstream commit b7a5b537c55c088d891ae554103d1b281abef781 ] NUMA Balancing skips VMAs when the current task has not trapped a NUMA fault within the VMA. If the VMA is skipped then mm->numa_scan_offset advances and a task that is trapping faults within the VMA may never fully update PTEs within the VMA. Force tasks to update PTEs for partially scanned PTEs. The VMA will be tagged for NUMA hints by some task but this removes some of the benefit of tracking PID activity within a VMA. A follow-on patch will mitigate this problem. The test cases and machines evaluated did not trigger the corner case so the performance results are neutral with only small changes within the noise from normal test-to-test variance. However, the next patch makes the corner case easier to trigger.

vhost_task: Handle SIGKILL by flushing work and exiting

mm: add a NO_INHERIT flag to the PR_SET_MDWE prctl

2023-12-03T06:33:06Z

[ Upstream commit 24e41bf8a6b424c76c5902fb999e9eca61bdf83d ] This extends the current PR_SET_MDWE prctl arg with a bit to indicate that the process doesn't want MDWE protection to propagate to children. To implement this no-inherit mode, the tag in current->mm->flags must be absent from MMF_INIT_MASK. This means that the encoding for "MDWE but without inherit" is different in the prctl than in the mm flags. This leads to a bit of bit-mangling in the prctl implementation.

document while_each_thread(), change first_tid() to use for_each_thread()

2023-08-24T23:25:15Z

Add the comment to explain that while_each_thread(g,t) is not rcu-safe unless g is stable (e.g. current). Even if g is a group leader and thus can't exit before t, t or another sub-thread can exec and remove g from the thread_group list. The only lockless user of while_each_thread() is first_tid() and it is fine in that it can't loop forever, yet for_each_thread() looks better and I am going to change while_each_thread/next_thread.

kill do_each_thread()

2023-08-21T20:46:25Z

Eric has pointed out that we still have 3 users of do_each_thread(). Change them to use for_each_process_thread() and kill this helper. There is a subtle change, after do_each_thread/while_each_thread g == t == &init_task, while after for_each_process_thread() they both point to nowhere, but this doesn't matter. > Why is for_each_process_thread() better than do_each_thread()? Say, for_each_process_thread() is rcu safe, do_each_thread() is not. And certainly for_each_process_thread(p, t) { do_something(p, t); } looks better than do_each_thread(p, t) { do_something(p, t); } while_each_thread(p, t); And again, there are only 3 users of this awkward helper left. It should have been killed years ago and in fact I thought it had already been killed. It uses while_each_thread() which needs some changes.

sched: avoid false lockdep splat in put_task_struct()

2023-07-13T13:21:48Z

In put_task_struct(), a spin_lock is indirectly acquired under the kernel stock. When running the kernel in real-time (RT) configuration, the operation is dispatched to a preemptible context call to ensure guaranteed preemption. However, if PROVE_RAW_LOCK_NESTING is enabled and __put_task_struct() is called while holding a raw_spinlock, lockdep incorrectly reports an "Invalid lock context" in the stock kernel. This false splat occurs because lockdep is unaware of the different route taken under RT. To address this issue, override the inner wait type to prevent the false lockdep splat.
