The task stack could be deallocated later, but for fork()/exec() kind of
workloads (say a shell script executing several commands) it is important
that the stack is released in finish_task_switch() so that in VMAP_STACK
case it can be cached and reused in the new task.
For PREEMPT_RT it would be good if the wake-up in vfree_atomic() could
be avoided in the scheduling path. Far worse are the other
free_thread_stack() implementations which invoke __free_pages()/
kmem_cache_free() with disabled preemption.
Cache the stack in free_thread_stack() in the VMAP_STACK case and
RCU-delay the free path otherwise. Free the stack in the RCU callback.
In the VMAP_STACK case this is another opportunity to fill the cache.

There is no need to perform the stack accounting of the outgoing task in
its final schedule() invocation which happens with preemption disabled.
The task is leaving, the resources will be freed and the accounting can
happen in do_exit() before the actual schedule invocation which
frees the stack memory.
Move the accounting of the stack memory from release_task_stack() to
exit_task_stack_account() which then can be invoked from do_exit().

The use of ifdef CONFIG_VMAP_STACK is confusing in terms what is
actually happenning and what can happen.
For instance from reading free_thread_stack() it appears that in the
CONFIG_VMAP_STACK case it may receive a non-NULL vm pointer but it may also
be NULL in which case __free_pages() is used to free the stack. This is
however not the case because in the VMAP case a non-NULL pointer is always
returned here. Since it looks like this might happen, the compiler creates
the correct dead code with the invocation to __free_pages() and everything
around it. Twice.
Add spaces between the ifdef and the identifer to recognize the ifdef
level which is currently in scope.
Add the current identifer as a comment behind #else and #endif.
Move the code within free_thread_stack() and alloc_thread_stack_node()
into the relevant ifdef blocks.

Merge tag 'pidfd.v5.17-rc4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux
Pull pidfd fix from Christian Brauner:
"This fixes a problem reported by lockdep when installing a pidfd via
fd_install() with siglock and the tasklisk write lock held in
copy_process() when calling clone()/clone3() with CLONE_PIDFD.
Originally a pidfd was created prior to holding any of these locks but
this required a call to ksys_close(). So quite some time ago in
6fd2fe494b ("copy_process(): don't use ksys_close() on cleanups") we
switched to a get_unused_fd_flags() + fd_install() model.
As part of that we moved fd_install() as late as possible. This was
done for two main reasons. First, because we needed to ensure that we
call fd_install() past the point of no return as once that's called
the fd is live in the task's file table. Second, because we tried to
ensure that the fd is visible in /proc/<pid>/fd/<pidfd> right when the
task is visible.
This fix moves the fd_install() to an even later point which means
that a task will be visible in proc while the pidfd isn't yet under
/proc/<pid>/fd/<pidfd>.
While this is a user visible change it's very unlikely that this will
have any impact. Nobody should be relying on that and if they do we
need to come up with something better but again, it's doubtful this is
relevant"

This can be fixed either by fixing the test or by moving the increment
to be before the test. Fix it my moving copy_creds which contains
the increment before is_ucounts_overlimit.
In the case of CLONE_NEWUSER the ucounts in the task_cred changes.
The function is_ucounts_overlimit needs to use the final version of
the ucounts for the new process. Which means moving the
is_ucounts_overlimit test after copy_creds is necessary.
Both the test in fork and the test in set_user were semantically
changed when the code moved to ucounts. The change of the test in
fork was bad because it was before the increment. The test in
set_user was wrong and the change to ucounts fixed it. So this
fix only restores the old behavior in one lcation not two.

PASIDs are process-wide. It was attempted to use refcounted PASIDs to
free them when the last thread drops the refcount. This turned out to
be complex and error prone. Given the fact that the PASID space is 20
bits, which allows up to 1M processes to have a PASID associated
concurrently, PASID resource exhaustion is not a realistic concern.
Therefore, it was decided to simplify the approach and stick with lazy
on demand PASID allocation, but drop the eager free approach and make an
allocated PASID's lifetime bound to the lifetime of the process.
Get rid of the refcounting mechanisms and replace/rename the interfaces
to reflect this new approach.

A new mm doesn't have a PASID yet when it's created. Initialize
the mm's PASID on fork() or for init_mm to INVALID_IOASID (-1).
INIT_PASID (0) is reserved for kernel legacy DMA PASID. It cannot be
allocated to a user process. Initializing the process's PASID to 0 may
cause confusion that's why the process uses the reserved kernel legacy
DMA PASID. Initializing the PASID to INVALID_IOASID (-1) explicitly
tells the process doesn't have a valid PASID yet.
Even though the only user of mm_pasid_init() is in fork.c, define it in
<linux/sched/mm.h> as the first of three mm/pasid life cycle functions
(init/set/drop) to keep these all together.

Pull signal/exit/ptrace updates from Eric Biederman:
"This set of changes deletes some dead code, makes a lot of cleanups
which hopefully make the code easier to follow, and fixes bugs found
along the way.
The end-game which I have not yet reached yet is for fatal signals
that generate coredumps to be short-circuit deliverable from
complete_signal, for force_siginfo_to_task not to require changing
userspace configured signal delivery state, and for the ptrace stops
to always happen in locations where we can guarantee on all
architectures that the all of the registers are saved and available on
the stack.
Removal of profile_task_ext, profile_munmap, and profile_handoff_task
are the big successes for dead code removal this round.
A bunch of small bug fixes are included, as most of the issues
reported were small enough that they would not affect bisection so I
simply added the fixes and did not fold the fixes into the changes
they were fixing.
There was a bug that broke coredumps piped to systemd-coredump. I
dropped the change that caused that bug and replaced it entirely with
something much more restrained. Unfortunately that required some
rebasing.
Some successes after this set of changes: There are few enough calls
to do_exit to audit in a reasonable amount of time. The lifetime of
struct kthread now matches the lifetime of struct task, and the
pointer to struct kthread is no longer stored in set_child_tid. The
flag SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP is removed. The field group_exit_task is
removed. Issues where task->exit_code was examined with
signal->group_exit_code should been examined were fixed.
There are several loosely related changes included because I am
cleaning up and if I don't include them they will probably get lost.

...
The patch to add anonymous vma names causes a build failure in some
configurations:
include/linux/mm_types.h: In function 'is_same_vma_anon_name':
include/linux/mm_types.h:924:37: error: implicit declaration of function 'strcmp' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
924 | return name && vma_name && !strcmp(name, vma_name);
| ^~~~~~
include/linux/mm_types.h:22:1: note: 'strcmp' is defined in header '<string.h>'; did you forget to '#include <string.h>'?
This should not really be part of linux/mm_types.h in the first place,
as that header is meant to only contain structure defintions and need a
minimum set of indirect includes itself.
While the header clearly includes more than it should at this point,
let's not make it worse by including string.h as well, which would pull
in the expensive (compile-speed wise) fortify-string logic.
Move the new functions into a separate header that only needs to be
included in a couple of locations.

In many userspace applications, and especially in VM based applications
like Android uses heavily, there are multiple different allocators in
use. At a minimum there is libc malloc and the stack, and in many cases
there are libc malloc, the stack, direct syscalls to mmap anonymous
memory, and multiple VM heaps (one for small objects, one for big
objects, etc.). Each of these layers usually has its own tools to
inspect its usage; malloc by compiling a debug version, the VM through
heap inspection tools, and for direct syscalls there is usually no way
to track them.
On Android we heavily use a set of tools that use an extended version of
the logic covered in Documentation/vm/pagemap.txt to walk all pages
mapped in userspace and slice their usage by process, shared (COW) vs.
unique mappings, backing, etc. This can account for real physical
memory usage even in cases like fork without exec (which Android uses
heavily to share as many private COW pages as possible between
processes), Kernel SamePage Merging, and clean zero pages. It produces
a measurement of the pages that only exist in that process (USS, for
unique), and a measurement of the physical memory usage of that process
with the cost of shared pages being evenly split between processes that
share them (PSS).
If all anonymous memory is indistinguishable then figuring out the real
physical memory usage (PSS) of each heap requires either a pagemap
walking tool that can understand the heap debugging of every layer, or
for every layer's heap debugging tools to implement the pagemap walking
logic, in which case it is hard to get a consistent view of memory
across the whole system.
Tracking the information in userspace leads to all sorts of problems.
It either needs to be stored inside the process, which means every
process has to have an API to export its current heap information upon
request, or it has to be stored externally in a filesystem that somebody
needs to clean up on crashes. It needs to be readable while the process
is still running, so it has to have some sort of synchronization with
every layer of userspace. Efficiently tracking the ranges requires
reimplementing something like the kernel vma trees, and linking to it
from every layer of userspace. It requires more memory, more syscalls,
more runtime cost, and more complexity to separately track regions that
the kernel is already tracking.
This patch adds a field to /proc/pid/maps and /proc/pid/smaps to show a
userspace-provided name for anonymous vmas. The names of named
anonymous vmas are shown in /proc/pid/maps and /proc/pid/smaps as
[anon:<name>].
Userspace can set the name for a region of memory by calling
prctl(PR_SET_VMA, PR_SET_VMA_ANON_NAME, start, len, (unsigned long)name)
Setting the name to NULL clears it. The name length limit is 80 bytes
including NUL-terminator and is checked to contain only printable ascii
characters (including space), except '[',']','\','$' and '`'.
Ascii strings are being used to have a descriptive identifiers for vmas,
which can be understood by the users reading /proc/pid/maps or
/proc/pid/smaps. Names can be standardized for a given system and they
can include some variable parts such as the name of the allocator or a
library, tid of the thread using it, etc.
The name is stored in a pointer in the shared union in vm_area_struct
that points to a null terminated string. Anonymous vmas with the same
name (equivalent strings) and are otherwise mergeable will be merged.
The name pointers are not shared between vmas even if they contain the
same name. The name pointer is stored in a union with fields that are
only used on file-backed mappings, so it does not increase memory usage.
CONFIG_ANON_VMA_NAME kernel configuration is introduced to enable this
feature. It keeps the feature disabled by default to prevent any
additional memory overhead and to avoid confusing procfs parsers on
systems which are not ready to support named anonymous vmas.
The patch is based on the original patch developed by Colin Cross, more
specifically on its latest version [1] posted upstream by Sumit Semwal.
It used a userspace pointer to store vma names. In that design, name
pointers could be shared between vmas. However during the last
upstreaming attempt, Kees Cook raised concerns [2] about this approach
and suggested to copy the name into kernel memory space, perform
validity checks [3] and store as a string referenced from
vm_area_struct.
One big concern is about fork() performance which would need to strdup
anonymous vma names. Dave Hansen suggested experimenting with
worst-case scenario of forking a process with 64k vmas having longest
possible names [4]. I ran this experiment on an ARM64 Android device
and recorded a worst-case regression of almost 40% when forking such a
process.
This regression is addressed in the followup patch which replaces the
pointer to a name with a refcounted structure that allows sharing the
name pointer between vmas of the same name. Instead of duplicating the
string during fork() or when splitting a vma it increments the refcount.

Changes for prctl(2) manual page (in the options section):
PR_SET_VMA
Sets an attribute specified in arg2 for virtual memory areas
starting from the address specified in arg3 and spanning the
size specified in arg4. arg5 specifies the value of the attribute
to be set. Note that assigning an attribute to a virtual memory
area might prevent it from being merged with adjacent virtual
memory areas due to the difference in that attribute's value.
Currently, arg2 must be one of:
PR_SET_VMA_ANON_NAME
Set a name for anonymous virtual memory areas. arg5 should
be a pointer to a null-terminated string containing the
name. The name length including null byte cannot exceed
80 bytes. If arg5 is NULL, the name of the appropriate
anonymous virtual memory areas will be reset. The name
can contain only printable ascii characters (including
space), except '[',']','\','$' and '`'.
This feature is available only if the kernel is built with
the CONFIG_ANON_VMA_NAME option enabled.

The point of using set_child_tid to hold the kthread pointer was that
it already did what is necessary. There are now restrictions on when
set_child_tid can be initialized and when set_child_tid can be used in
schedule_tail. Which indicates that continuing to use set_child_tid
to hold the kthread pointer is a bad idea.
Instead of continuing to use the set_child_tid field of task_struct
generalize the pf_io_worker field of task_struct and use it to hold
the kthread pointer.
Rename pf_io_worker (which is a void * pointer) to worker_private so
it can be used to store kthreads struct kthread pointer. Update the
kthread code to store the kthread pointer in the worker_private field.
Remove the places where set_child_tid had to be dealt with carefully
because kthreads also used it.

Fixes: 40966e316f ("kthread: Ensure struct kthread is present for all kthreads")
Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com>
Today the rules are a bit iffy and arbitrary about which kernel
threads have struct kthread present. Both idle threads and thread
started with create_kthread want struct kthread present so that is
effectively all kernel threads. Make the rule that if PF_KTHREAD
and the task is running then struct kthread is present.
This will allow the kernel thread code to using tsk->exit_code
with different semantics from ordinary processes.
To make ensure that struct kthread is present for all
kernel threads move it's allocation into copy_process.
Add a deallocation of struct kthread in exec for processes
that were kernel threads.
Move the allocation of struct kthread for the initial thread
earlier so that it is not repeated for each additional idle
thread.
Move the initialization of struct kthread into set_kthread_struct
so that the structure is always and reliably initailized.
Clear set_child_tid in free_kthread_struct to ensure the kthread
struct is reliably freed during exec. The function
free_kthread_struct does not need to clear vfork_done during exec as
exec_mm_release called from exec_mmap has already cleared vfork_done.

Pull per signal_struct coredumps from Eric Biederman:
"Current coredumps are mixed up with the exit code, the signal handling
code, and the ptrace code making coredumps much more complicated than
necessary and difficult to follow.
This series of changes starts with ptrace_stop and cleans it up,
making it easier to follow what is happening in ptrace_stop. Then
cleans up the exec interactions with coredumps. Then cleans up the
coredump interactions with exit. Finally the coredump interactions
with the signal handling code is cleaned up.
The first and last changes are bug fixes for minor bugs.
I believe the fact that vfork followed by execve can kill the process
the called vfork if exec fails is sufficient justification to change
the userspace visible behavior.
In previous discussions some of these changes were organized
differently and individually appeared to make the code base worse. As
currently written I believe they all stand on their own as cleanups
and bug fixes.
Which means that even if the worst should happen and the last change
needs to be reverted for some unimaginable reason, the code base will
still be improved.
If the worst does not happen there are a more cleanups that can be
made. Signals that generate coredumps can easily become eligible for
short circuit delivery in complete_signal. The entire rendezvous for
generating a coredump can move into get_signal. The function
force_sig_info_to_task be written in a way that does not modify the
signal handling state of the target task (because coredumps are
eligible for short circuit delivery). Many of these future cleanups
can be done another way but nothing so cleanly as if coredumps become
per signal_struct"

copy_process currently copies task_struct.posix_cputimers_work as-is. If a
timer interrupt arrives while handling clone and before dup_task_struct
completes then the child task will have:
1. posix_cputimers_work.scheduled = true
2. posix_cputimers_work.work queued.
copy_process clears task_struct.task_works, so (2) will have no effect and
posix_cpu_timers_work will never run (not to mention it doesn't make sense
for two tasks to share a common linked list).
Since posix_cpu_timers_work never runs, posix_cputimers_work.scheduled is
never cleared. Since scheduled is set, future timer interrupts will skip
scheduling work, with the ultimate result that the task will never receive
timer expirations.
Together, the complete flow is:
1. Task 1 calls clone(), enters kernel.
2. Timer interrupt fires, schedules task work on Task 1.
2a. task_struct.posix_cputimers_work.scheduled = true
2b. task_struct.posix_cputimers_work.work added to
task_struct.task_works.
3. dup_task_struct() copies Task 1 to Task 2.
4. copy_process() clears task_struct.task_works for Task 2.
5. Future timer interrupts on Task 2 see
task_struct.posix_cputimers_work.scheduled = true and skip scheduling
work.
Fix this by explicitly clearing contents of task_struct.posix_cputimers_work
in copy_process(). This was never meant to be shared or inherited across
tasks in the first place.

There is a small race between copy_process() and sched_fork()
where child->sched_task_group point to an already freed pointer.
parent doing fork() | someone moving the parent
| to another cgroup
-------------------------------+-------------------------------
copy_process()

parent move to another cgroup,
and free the old cgroup. <2>
+ sched_fork()
+ __set_task_cpu()<3>
+ task_fork_fair()
+ sched_slice()<4>
In the worst case, this bug can lead to "use-after-free" and
cause panic as shown above:
(1) parent copy its sched_task_group to child at <1>;
(2) someone move the parent to another cgroup and free the old
cgroup at <2>;
(3) the sched_task_group and cfs_rq that belong to the old cgroup
will be accessed at <3> and <4>, which cause a panic:

Between cgroup_can_fork() and cgroup_post_fork(), the cgroup
membership and thus sched_task_group can't change. So update child's

Today when a signal is delivered with a handler of SIG_DFL whose
default behavior is to generate a core dump not only that process but
every process that shares the mm is killed.
In the case of vfork this looks like a real world problem. Consider
the following well defined sequence.
if (vfork() == 0) {
execve(...);
_exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
If a signal that generates a core dump is received after vfork but
before the execve changes the mm the process that called vfork will
also be killed (as the mm is shared).
Similarly if the execve fails after the point of no return the kernel
delivers SIGSEGV which will kill both the exec'ing process and because
the mm is shared the process that called vfork as well.
As far as I can tell this behavior is a violation of people's
reasonable expectations, POSIX, and is unnecessarily fragile when the
system is low on memory.
Solve this by making a userspace visible change to only kill a single
process/thread group. This is possible because Jann Horn recently
modified[1] the coredump code so that the mm can safely be modified
while the coredump is happening. With LinuxThreads long gone I don't
expect anyone to have a notice this behavior change in practice.
To accomplish this move the core_state pointer from mm_struct to
signal_struct, which allows different thread groups to coredump
simultatenously.
In zap_threads remove the work to kill anything except for the current
thread group.
v2: Remove core_state from the VM_BUG_ON_MM print to fix
compile failure when CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is enabled.

Rename coredump_exit_mm to coredump_task_exit and call it from do_exit
before PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT, and before any cleanup work for a task
happens. This ensures that an accurate copy of the process can be
captured in the coredump as no cleanup for the process happens before
the coredump completes. This also ensures that PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT
will not be visited by any thread until the coredump is complete.
Add a new flag PF_POSTCOREDUMP so that tasks that have passed through
coredump_task_exit can be recognized and ignored in zap_process.
Now that all of the coredumping happens before exit_mm remove code to
test for a coredump in progress from mm_release.
Replace "may_ptrace_stop()" with a simple test of "current->ptrace".
The other tests in may_ptrace_stop all concern avoiding stopping
during a coredump. These tests are no longer necessary as it is now
guaranteed that fatal_signal_pending will be set if the code enters
ptrace_stop during a coredump. The code in ptrace_stop is guaranteed
not to stop if fatal_signal_pending returns true.
Until this change "ptrace_event(PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT)" could call
ptrace_stop without fatal_signal_pending being true, as signals are
dequeued in get_signal before calling do_exit. This is no longer
an issue as "ptrace_event(PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT)" is no longer reached
until after the coredump completes.

After fork, the child process will get incorrect (2x) hugetlb_usage. If
a process uses 5 2MB hugetlb pages in an anonymous mapping,
HugetlbPages: 10240 kB
and then forks, the child will show,
HugetlbPages: 20480 kB
The reason for double the amount is because hugetlb_usage will be copied
from the parent and then increased when we copy page tables from parent
to child. Child will have 2x actual usage.
Fix this by adding hugetlb_count_init in mm_init.

Pull MAP_DENYWRITE removal from David Hildenbrand:
"Remove all in-tree usage of MAP_DENYWRITE from the kernel and remove
VM_DENYWRITE.
There are some (minor) user-visible changes:
- We no longer deny write access to shared libaries loaded via legacy
uselib(); this behavior matches modern user space e.g. dlopen().
- We no longer deny write access to the elf interpreter after exec
completed, treating it just like shared libraries (which it often
is).
- We always deny write access to the file linked via /proc/pid/exe:
sys_prctl(PR_SET_MM_MAP/EXE_FILE) will fail if write access to the
file cannot be denied, and write access to the file will remain
denied until the link is effectivel gone (exec, termination,
sys_prctl(PR_SET_MM_MAP/EXE_FILE)) -- just as if exec'ing the file.
Cross-compiled for a bunch of architectures (alpha, microblaze, i386,
s390x, ...) and verified via ltp that especially the relevant tests
(i.e., creat07 and execve04) continue working as expected"

We want to remove VM_DENYWRITE only currently only used when mapping the
executable during exec. During exec, we already deny_write_access() the
executable, however, after exec completes the VMAs mapped
with VM_DENYWRITE effectively keeps write access denied via
deny_write_access().
Let's deny write access when setting or replacing the MM exe_file. With
this change, we can remove VM_DENYWRITE for mapping executables.
Make set_mm_exe_file() return an error in case deny_write_access()
fails; note that this should never happen, because exec code does a
deny_write_access() early and keeps write access denied when calling
set_mm_exe_file. However, it makes the code easier to read and makes
set_mm_exe_file() and replace_mm_exe_file() look more similar.
This represents a minor user space visible change:
sys_prctl(PR_SET_MM_MAP/EXE_FILE) can now fail if the file is already
opened writable. Also, after sys_prctl(PR_SET_MM_MAP/EXE_FILE) the file
cannot be opened writable. Note that we can already fail with -EACCES if
the file doesn't have execute permissions.

- The biggest change in this cycle is scheduler support for asymmetric
scheduling affinity, to support the execution of legacy 32-bit tasks on
AArch32 systems that also have 64-bit-only CPUs.
Architectures can fill in this functionality by defining their
own task_cpu_possible_mask(p). When this is done, the scheduler will
make sure the task will only be scheduled on CPUs that support it.
(The actual arm64 specific changes are not part of this tree.)
For other architectures there will be no change in functionality.
- Add cgroup SCHED_IDLE support
- Increase node-distance flexibility & delay determining it until a CPU
is brought online. (This enables platforms where node distance isn't
final until the CPU is only.)
- Deadline scheduler enhancements & fixes
- Misc fixes & cleanups.

Merge tag 'sched-core-2021-08-30' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
- The biggest change in this cycle is scheduler support for asymmetric
scheduling affinity, to support the execution of legacy 32-bit tasks
on AArch32 systems that also have 64-bit-only CPUs.
Architectures can fill in this functionality by defining their own
task_cpu_possible_mask(p). When this is done, the scheduler will make
sure the task will only be scheduled on CPUs that support it.
(The actual arm64 specific changes are not part of this tree.)
For other architectures there will be no change in functionality.
- Add cgroup SCHED_IDLE support
- Increase node-distance flexibility & delay determining it until a CPU
is brought online. (This enables platforms where node distance isn't
final until the CPU is only.)
- Deadline scheduler enhancements & fixes
- Misc fixes & cleanups.
