2012-06-16uprobes: Change build_map_info() to try kmalloc(GFP_NOWAIT) firstOleg Nesterov
build_map_info() doesn't allocate the memory under i_mmap_mutex to avoid the deadlock with page reclaim. But it can try GFP_NOWAIT first, it should work in the likely case and thus we almost never need the pre-alloc-and-retry path.

2012-06-16uprobes: Rework register_for_each_vma() to make it O(n)Oleg Nesterov
Currently register_for_each_vma() is O(n ** 2) + O(n ** 3), every time find_next_vma_info() "restarts" the vma_prio_tree_foreach() loop and each iteration rechecks the whole try_list. This also means that try_list can grow "indefinitely" if register/unregister races with munmap/mmap activity even if the number of mapping is bounded at any time. With this patch register_for_each_vma() builds the list of mm/vaddr structures only once and does install_breakpoint() for each entry. We do not care about the new mappings which can be created after build_map_info() drops mapping->i_mmap_mutex, uprobe_mmap() should do its work. Note that we do not allocate map_info under i_mmap_mutex, this can deadlock with page reclaim (but see the next patch). So we use 2 lists, "curr" which we are going to return, and "prev" which holds the already allocated memory. The main loop deques the entry from "prev" (initially it is empty), and if "prev" becomes empty again it counts the number of entries we need to pre-allocate outside of i_mmap_mutex.

2012-06-16uprobes: Install_breakpoint() should fail if is_swbp_insn() == TOleg Nesterov
install_breakpoint() returns -EEXIST if is_swbp_insn(orig_insn) == T, the caller treats this code as success. This is doubly wrong. The successful return should set UPROBE_COPY_INSN, but the real problem is that it shouldn't succeed. If the probed insn is int3 the application should get SIGTRAP, this won't happen with uprobe. Probably we can fix this, we can add the UPROBE_SHARED_BP flag and teach handle_swbp/set_orig_insn to handle this case correctly. But this needs some complications and we have other insns which can't be probed, lets make a simple fix for now. I think this needs a cleanup. UPROBE_COPY_INSN should die, copy_insn() should be called by alloc_uprobe(). arch_uprobe_analyze_insn() depends on ->mm (ia32_compat) but it is called only once.

2012-06-16uprobes: Write_opcode()->__replace_page() can race with try_to_unmap()Oleg Nesterov
write_opcode() gets old_page via get_user_pages() and then calls __replace_page() which assumes that this old_page is still mapped after pte_offset_map_lock(). This is not true if this old_page was already try_to_unmap()'ed, and in this case everything __replace_page() does with old_page is wrong. Just for example, put_page() is not balanced. I think it is possible to teach __replace_page() to handle this unlikely case correctly, but this patch simply changes it to use page_check_address() and return -EAGAIN if it fails. The caller should notice this error code and retry. Note: write_opcode() asks for the cleanups, I'll try to do this in a separate patch.

2012-06-08Revert "mm: correctly synchronize rss-counters at exit/exec"Linus Torvalds
This reverts commit 40af1bbdca47e5c8a2044039bb78ca8fd8b20f94. It's horribly and utterly broken for at least the following reasons: - calling sync_mm_rss() from mmput() is fundamentally wrong, because there's absolutely no reason to believe that the task that does the mmput() always does it on its own VM. Example: fork, ptrace, /proc - you name it. - calling it *after* having done mmdrop() on it is doubly insane, since the mm struct may well be gone now. - testing mm against NULL before you call it is insane too, since a NULL mm there would have caused oopses long before. .. and those are just the three bugs I found before I decided to give up looking for me and revert it asap. I should have caught it before I even took it, but I trusted Andrew too much.

2012-06-07mm: correctly synchronize rss-counters at exit/execKonstantin Khlebnikov
mm->rss_stat counters have per-task delta: task->rss_stat. Before changing task->mm pointer the kernel must flush this delta with sync_mm_rss(). do_exit() already calls sync_mm_rss() to flush the rss-counters before committing the rss statistics into task->signal->maxrss, taskstats, audit and other stuff. Unfortunately the kernel does this before calling mm_release(), which can call put_user() for processing task->clear_child_tid. So at this point we can trigger page-faults and task->rss_stat becomes non-zero again. As a result mm->rss_stat becomes inconsistent and check_mm() will print something like this: | BUG: Bad rss-counter state mm:ffff88020813c380 idx:1 val:-1 | BUG: Bad rss-counter state mm:ffff88020813c380 idx:2 val:1 This patch moves sync_mm_rss() into mm_release(), and moves mm_release() out of do_exit() and calls it earlier. After mm_release() there should be no pagefaults.

In commit b76437579d13 ("procfs: mark thread stack correctly in proc/<pid>/maps") the stack allocated via clone() is marked in /proc/<pid>/maps as [stack:%d] thus it might be out of the former mm->start_stack/end_stack values (and even has some custom VMA flags set). So to be able to restore mm->start_stack/end_stack drop vma flags test, but still require the underlying VMA to exist.

2012-06-07c/r: prctl: add ability to get clear_tid_addressCyrill Gorcunov
Zero is written at clear_tid_address when the process exits. This functionality is used by pthread_join(). We already have sys_set_tid_address() to change this address for the current task but there is no way to obtain it from user space. Without the ability to find this address and dump it we can't restore pthread'ed apps which call pthread_join() once they have been restored. This patch introduces the PR_GET_TID_ADDRESS prctl option which allows the current process to obtain own clear_tid_address. This feature is available iif CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE is set.

2012-06-06uprobes: Kill uprobes_srcu/uprobe_srcu_idOleg Nesterov
Kill the no longer needed uprobes_srcu/uprobe_srcu_id code. It doesn't really work anyway. synchronize_srcu() can only synchronize with the code "inside" the srcu_read_lock/srcu_read_unlock section, while uprobe_pre_sstep_notifier() does srcu_read_lock() _after_ we already hit the breakpoint. I guess this probably works "in practice". synchronize_srcu() is slow and it implies synchronize_sched(), and the probed task enters the non- preemptible section at the start of exception handler. Still this is not right at least in theory, and task->uprobe_srcu_id blows task_struct.

2012-06-06uprobes: Teach handle_swbp() to rely on "is_swbp" rather than uprobes_srcuOleg Nesterov
Currently handle_swbp() assumes that it can't race with unregister, so it roughly does: if (find_uprobe(vaddr)) process_uprobe(); else send_sig(SIGTRAP); This relies on the not-really-working uprobes_srcu code we are going to remove, see the next patch. With this patch we rely on the result of is_swbp_at_addr(bp_vaddr) if find_uprobe() fails. If is_swbp == 1, then we hit the normal int3, we should send SIGTRAP. If is_swbp == 0, we raced with uprobe_unregister(), we simply restart this insn again. The "difficult" case is is_swbp == -EFAULT, when we can't read this memory. In this case I think we should restart too, and this is more correct compared to the current code which sends SIGTRAP. Ignoring ENOMEM/etc from get_user_pages(), this can only happen if another thread unmaps this memory before find_active_uprobe() takes mmap_sem. It would be better to pretend it was unmapped before this insn was executed, restart, and get SIGSEGV.

Change register_for_each_vma() to take mm->mmap_sem for writing. This is a bit unfortunate but hopefully not too bad, this is the slow path anyway. This is needed to ensure that find_active_uprobe() can not race with uprobe_register() which adds the new bp at the same bp_vaddr, after find_uprobe() fails and before is_swbp_at_addr_fast() checks the memory. IOW, this is needed to ensure that if find_active_uprobe() returns NULL but is_swbp == true, we can safely assume that it was the "normal" int3 and we should send SIGTRAP. There is another reason for this change. We are going to replace uprobes_state->count with MMF_ flags set by register/unregister and cleared by find_active_uprobe(), and set/clear shouldn't race with each other.

2012-06-06uprobes: Teach find_active_uprobe() to provide the "is_swbp" infoOleg Nesterov
A separate patch to simplify the review, and for the documentation. The patch adds another "int *is_swbp" argument to find_active_uprobe(), so far its only caller doesn't use this info. With this patch find_active_uprobe() additionally does: - if find_vma() + ->vm_start check fails, *is_swbp = -EFAULT - otherwise, if valid_vma() + find_uprobe() fails, it holds the result of is_swbp_at_addr(), can be negative too. The latter is only possible if we raced with another thread which did munmap/etc after we hit this bp. IOW. If find_active_uprobe(&is_swbp) returns NULL, the caller can look at is_swbp to figure out whether the current insn is bp or not, or detect the race with another thread if it is negative. Note: I think that performance-wise this change is fine. This adds is_swbp_at_addr(), but only if we raced with uprobe_unregister() or if we hit the "normal" int3 but this mm has uprobes as well. And even in this case the slow read_opcode() path is very unlikely, this insn recently triggered do_int3(), __copy_from_user_inatomic() shouldn't fail in the likely case.

No functional changes. Move the "find uprobe" code from handle_swbp() to the new helper, find_active_uprobe(). Note: with or without this change, the find-active-uprobe logic is not exactly right. We can race with another thread which unmaps the memory with the valid uprobe before we take mm->mmap_sem. We can't find this uprobe simply because find_vma() fails. In this case we wrongly assume that this trap was not caused by uprobe and send the erroneous SIGTRAP. See the next changes.

2012-06-06sched: Fix the relax_domain_level boot parameterDimitri Sivanich
It does not get processed because sched_domain_level_max is 0 at the time that setup_relax_domain_level() is run. Simply accept the value as it is, as we don't know the value of sched_domain_level_max until sched domain construction is completed. Fix sched_relax_domain_level in cpuset. The build_sched_domain() routine calls the set_domain_attribute() routine prior to setting the sd->level, however, the set_domain_attribute() routine relies on the sd->level to decide whether idle load balancing will be off/on.

2012-06-06sched/rt: Fix lockdep annotation within find_lock_lowest_rq()Peter Zijlstra
Roland Dreier reported spurious, hard to trigger lockdep warnings within the scheduler - without any real lockup. This bit gives us the right clue: > [89945.640512] [<ffffffff8103fa1a>] double_lock_balance+0x5a/0x90 > [89945.640568] [<ffffffff8104c546>] push_rt_task+0xc6/0x290 if you look at that code you'll find the double_lock_balance() in question is the one in find_lock_lowest_rq() [yay for inlining]. Now find_lock_lowest_rq() has a bug.. it fails to use double_unlock_balance() in one exit path, if this results in a retry in push_rt_task() we'll call double_lock_balance() again, at which point we'll run into said lockdep confusion.

2012-06-06sched/numa: Load balance between remote nodesAlex Shi
Commit cb83b629b ("sched/numa: Rewrite the CONFIG_NUMA sched domain support") removed the NODE sched domain and started checking if the node distance in SLIT table is farther than REMOTE_DISTANCE, if so, it will lose the load balance chance at exec/fork/wake_affine points. But actually, even the node distance is farther than REMOTE_DISTANCE. Modern CPUs also has QPI like connections, which ensures that memory access is not too slow between nodes. So the above change in behavior on NUMA machine causes a performance regression on various benchmarks: hackbench, tbench, netperf, oltp, etc. This patch will recover the scheduler behavior to old mode on all my Intel platforms: NHM EP/EX, WSM EP, SNB EP/EP4S, and thus fixes the perfromance regressions.

2012-06-01c/r: prctl: add ability to set new mm_struct::exe_fileCyrill Gorcunov
When we do restore we would like to have a way to setup a former mm_struct::exe_file so that /proc/pid/exe would point to the original executable file a process had at checkpoint time. For this the PR_SET_MM_EXE_FILE code is introduced. This option takes a file descriptor which will be set as a source for new /proc/$pid/exe symlink. Note it allows to change /proc/$pid/exe if there are no VM_EXECUTABLE vmas present for current process, simply because this feature is a special to C/R and mm::num_exe_file_vmas become meaningless after that. To minimize the amount of transition the /proc/pid/exe symlink might have, this feature is implemented in one-shot manner. Thus once changed the symlink can't be changed again. This should help sysadmins to monitor the symlinks over all process running in a system. In particular one could make a snapshot of processes and ring alarm if there unexpected changes of /proc/pid/exe's in a system. Note -- this feature is available iif CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE is set and the caller must have CAP_SYS_RESOURCE capability granted, otherwise the request to change symlink will be rejected.

2012-06-01c/r: prctl: extend PR_SET_MM to set up more mm_struct entriesCyrill Gorcunov
During checkpoint we dump whole process memory to a file and the dump includes process stack memory. But among stack data itself, the stack carries additional parameters such as command line arguments, environment data and auxiliary vector. So when we do restore procedure and once we've restored stack data itself we need to setup mm_struct::arg_start/end, env_start/end, so restored process would be able to find command line arguments and environment data it had at checkpoint time. The same applies to auxiliary vector. For this reason additional PR_SET_MM_(ARG_START | ARG_END | ENV_START | ENV_END | AUXV) codes are introduced.

2012-06-01syscalls, x86: add __NR_kcmp syscallCyrill Gorcunov
While doing the checkpoint-restore in the user space one need to determine whether various kernel objects (like mm_struct-s of file_struct-s) are shared between tasks and restore this state. The 2nd step can be solved by using appropriate CLONE_ flags and the unshare syscall, while there's currently no ways for solving the 1st one. One of the ways for checking whether two tasks share e.g. mm_struct is to provide some mm_struct ID of a task to its proc file, but showing such info considered to be not that good for security reasons. Thus after some debates we end up in conclusion that using that named 'comparison' syscall might be the best candidate. So here is it -- __NR_kcmp. It takes up to 5 arguments - the pids of the two tasks (which characteristics should be compared), the comparison type and (in case of comparison of files) two file descriptors. Lookups for pids are done in the caller's PID namespace only. At moment only x86 is supported and tested.
