[PATCH v4 4.19 1/1] test_firmware: prevent race conditions by a correct implementation of locking

by Mirsad Goran Todorovac

[ Upstream commit 4acfe3dfde685a5a9eaec5555351918e2d7266a1 ] Dan Carpenter spotted a race condition in a couple of situations like these in the test_firmware driver: static int test_dev_config_update_u8(const char *buf, size_t size, u8 *cfg) { u8 val; int ret; ret = kstrtou8(buf, 10, &val); if (ret) return ret; mutex_lock(&test_fw_mutex); *(u8 *)cfg = val; mutex_unlock(&test_fw_mutex); /* Always return full write size even if we didn't consume all */ return size; } static ssize_t config_num_requests_store(struct device *dev, struct device_attribute *attr, const char *buf, size_t count) { int rc; mutex_lock(&test_fw_mutex); if (test_fw_config->reqs) { pr_err("Must call release_all_firmware prior to changing config\n"); rc = -EINVAL; mutex_unlock(&test_fw_mutex); goto out; } mutex_unlock(&test_fw_mutex); // NOTE: HERE is the race!!! Function can be preempted! // test_fw_config->reqs can change between the release of // the lock about and acquire of the lock in the // test_dev_config_update_u8() rc = test_dev_config_update_u8(buf, count, &test_fw_config->num_requests); out: return rc; } static ssize_t config_read_fw_idx_store(struct device *dev, struct device_attribute *attr, const char *buf, size_t count) { return test_dev_config_update_u8(buf, count, &test_fw_config->read_fw_idx); } The function test_dev_config_update_u8() is called from both the locked and the unlocked context, function config_num_requests_store() and config_read_fw_idx_store() which can both be called asynchronously as they are driver's methods, while test_dev_config_update_u8() and siblings change their argument pointed to by u8 *cfg or similar pointer. To avoid deadlock on test_fw_mutex, the lock is dropped before calling test_dev_config_update_u8() and re-acquired within test_dev_config_update_u8() itself, but alas this creates a race condition. Having two locks wouldn't assure a race-proof mutual exclusion. This situation is best avoided by the introduction of a new, unlocked function __test_dev_config_update_u8() which can be called from the locked context and reducing test_dev_config_update_u8() to: static int test_dev_config_update_u8(const char *buf, size_t size, u8 *cfg) { int ret; mutex_lock(&test_fw_mutex); ret = __test_dev_config_update_u8(buf, size, cfg); mutex_unlock(&test_fw_mutex); return ret; } doing the locking and calling the unlocked primitive, which enables both locked and unlocked versions without duplication of code.

In the discussion of Jiaqi Yan's series "Improve hugetlbfs read on HWPOISON hugepages" the race window was discovered. https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20230616233447.GB7371@monkey/ Freeing a hugetlb page back to low level memory allocators is performed in two steps. 1) Under hugetlb lock, remove page from hugetlb lists and clear destructor 2) Outside lock, allocate vmemmap if necessary and call low level free Between these two steps, the hugetlb page will appear as a normal compound page. However, vmemmap for tail pages could be missing. If a memory error occurs at this time, we could try to update page flags non-existant page structs. A much more detailed description is in the first patch. The first patch addresses the race window. However, it adds a hugetlb_lock lock/unlock cycle to every vmemmap optimized hugetlb page free operation. This could lead to slowdowns if one is freeing a large number of hugetlb pages. The second path optimizes the update_and_free_pages_bulk routine to only take the lock once in bulk operations. The second patch is technically not a bug fix, but includes a Fixes tag and Cc stable to avoid a performance regression. It can be combined with the first, but was done separately make reviewing easier. This patch (of 2): Freeing a hugetlb page and releasing base pages back to the underlying allocator such as buddy or cma is performed in two steps: - remove_hugetlb_folio() is called to remove the folio from hugetlb lists, get a ref on the page and remove hugetlb destructor. This all must be done under the hugetlb lock. After this call, the page can be treated as a normal compound page or a collection of base size pages. - update_and_free_hugetlb_folio() is called to allocate vmemmap if needed and the free routine of the underlying allocator is called on the resulting page. We can not hold the hugetlb lock here. One issue with this scheme is that a memory error could occur between these two steps. In this case, the memory error handling code treats the old hugetlb page as a normal compound page or collection of base pages. It will then try to SetPageHWPoison(page) on the page with an error. If the page with error is a tail page without vmemmap, a write error will occur when trying to set the flag. Address this issue by modifying remove_hugetlb_folio() and update_and_free_hugetlb_folio() such that the hugetlb destructor is not cleared until after allocating vmemmap. Since clearing the destructor requires holding the hugetlb lock, the clearing is done in remove_hugetlb_folio() if the vmemmap is present. This saves a lock/unlock cycle. Otherwise, destructor is cleared in update_and_free_hugetlb_folio() after allocating vmemmap. Note that this will leave hugetlb pages in a state where they are marked free (by hugetlb specific page flag) and have a ref count. This is not a normal state. The only code that would notice is the memory error code, and it is set up to retry in such a case. A subsequent patch will create a routine to do bulk processing of vmemmap allocation. This will eliminate a lock/unlock cycle for each hugetlb page in the case where we are freeing a large number of pages.

[6.1.y] Assertion with 7xxx dGPUs

by Limonciello, Mario

Hi, In addition to the hang fix patches recently this other patch is needed for helping a case that ASSERT() catches. 74fa4c81aadf ("drm/amd/display: Implement workaround for writing to OTG_PIXEL_RATE_DIV register") Can you please take this to stable 6.1.y too? Link: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/2466 Thanks,

proc_lseek backport request

by t.martitz＠avm.de

Dear stable team, I'm asking that commit 3f61631d47f1 ("take care to handle NULL ->proc_lseek()") gets backported to the stable and LTS kernels down to 5.10. Background: We are in the process of upgrading our kernels. One target kernel is based on 5.15 LTS. Here we found that, if proc file drivers do not implement proc_lseek, user space crashes easily, because various library routines internally perform lseek(2). The crash happens in proc_reg_llseek, where it wants to jump to a NULL pointer. We could, arguably, fix these drivers to use ".proc_lseek = no_llseek". But this doesn't seem like a worthwhile path forward, considering that latest Linux kernels (including 6.1 LTS) allow proc_lseek == NULL again and *remove* no_lseek. Essentially, on HEAD, it's best practice to leave proc_lseek == NULL. Therefore, I ask that the above procfs fix gets backported so that our drivers can work across all kernel versions, including latest 6.x. I checked that this commit applies and works as expected on a board that runs Linux 5.15, and the observed crash goes away. Furthermore, I investigated that the fix applies to older LTS kernels, down to 5.10. The lseek(2) path uses vfs_llseek() which checks for FMODE_LSEEK. This has been like that forever since the initial git import. However, 5.4 LTS and older kernels do not have "struct proc_ops". Thank you in advance. Best regards, Thomas Martitz

[PATCH 0/2] Backport unlink misfit patches into 6.1.y

by Qais Yousef

Decoupling misfit from overutilized better helps handling misfit due to uclamp_min only being misfit without triggering overutilized state, which is bad from energy point of view as it prematurely disables energy aware scheduling. The series also makes the search for a better CPU under bad thermal condition more comprehensive, which is useful improvement when the system is under bad thermal condition. Backports to 5.10.y and 5.15.y is hard as find_energy_efficient_cpu() is different. But it applies cleanly on 6.1.y Compile tested against various randconfigs for different archs. Boot tested on android14-6.1 GKI kernel. Based on v6.1.46 Original series https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230201143628.270912-1-vincent.guittot@linaro… Thanks! -- Qais Yousef Vincent Guittot (2): sched/fair: unlink misfit task from cpu overutilized sched/fair: Remove capacity inversion detection kernel/sched/fair.c | 189 ++++++++++++++++++++----------------------- kernel/sched/sched.h | 19 ----- 2 files changed, 87 insertions(+), 121 deletions(-) -- 2.34.1
