14 years agopowerpc: Fix invalid page flags in create TLB CAM path for PTE_64BIT
Paul Gortmaker [Fri, 24 Sep 2010 16:44:52 +0000 (12:44 -0400)]
powerpc: Fix invalid page flags in create TLB CAM path for PTE_64BIT

There exists a four line chunk of code, which when configured for
64 bit address space, can incorrectly set certain page flags during
the TLB creation.  It turns out that this is code which isn't used,
but might still serve a purpose.  Since it isn't obvious why it exists
or why it causes problems, the below description covers both in detail.

For powerpc bootstrap, the physical memory (at most 768M), is mapped
into the kernel space via the following path:

MMU_init()
    |
    + adjust_total_lowmem()
            |
            + map_mem_in_cams()
                    |
                    + settlbcam(i, virt, phys, cam_sz, PAGE_KERNEL_X, 0);

On settlbcam(), the kernel will create TLB entries according to the flag,
PAGE_KERNEL_X.

settlbcam()
{
        ...
        TLBCAM[index].MAS1 = MAS1_VALID
                        | MAS1_IPROT | MAS1_TSIZE(tsize) | MAS1_TID(pid);
                                ^
These entries cannot be invalidated by the
kernel since MAS1_IPROT is set on TLB property.
        ...
        if (flags & _PAGE_USER) {
           TLBCAM[index].MAS3 |= MAS3_UX | MAS3_UR;
           TLBCAM[index].MAS3 |= ((flags & _PAGE_RW) ? MAS3_UW : 0);
        }

For classic BookE (flags & _PAGE_USER) is 'zero' so it's fine.
But on boards like the the Freescale P4080, we want to support 36-bit
physical address on it. So the following options may be set:

CONFIG_FSL_BOOKE=y
CONFIG_PTE_64BIT=y
CONFIG_PHYS_64BIT=y

As a result, boards like the P4080 will introduce PTE format as Book3E.
As per the file: arch/powerpc/include/asm/pgtable-ppc32.h

  * #elif defined(CONFIG_FSL_BOOKE) && defined(CONFIG_PTE_64BIT)
  * #include <asm/pte-book3e.h>

So PAGE_KERNEL_X is __pgprot(_PAGE_BASE | _PAGE_KERNEL_RWX) and the
book3E version of _PAGE_KERNEL_RWX is defined with:

  (_PAGE_BAP_SW | _PAGE_BAP_SR | _PAGE_DIRTY | _PAGE_BAP_SX)

Note the _PAGE_BAP_SR, which is also defined in the book3E _PAGE_USER:

  #define _PAGE_USER        (_PAGE_BAP_UR | _PAGE_BAP_SR) /* Can be read */

So the possibility exists to wrongly assign the user MAS3_U<RWX> bits
to kernel (PAGE_KERNEL_X) address space via the following code fragment:

        if (flags & _PAGE_USER) {
           TLBCAM[index].MAS3 |= MAS3_UX | MAS3_UR;
           TLBCAM[index].MAS3 |= ((flags & _PAGE_RW) ? MAS3_UW : 0);
        }

Here is a dump of the TLB info from Simics with the above code present:
------
L2 TLB1
                                            GT                   SSS UUU V I
 Row  Logical           Physical            SS TLPID  TID  WIMGE XWR XWR F P   V
----- ----------------- ------------------- -- ----- ----- ----- --- --- - -   -
  0   c0000000-cfffffff 000000000-00fffffff 00     0     0   M   XWR XWR 0 1   1
  1   d0000000-dfffffff 010000000-01fffffff 00     0     0   M   XWR XWR 0 1   1
  2   e0000000-efffffff 020000000-02fffffff 00     0     0   M   XWR XWR 0 1   1

Actually this conditional code was used for two legacy functions:

  1: support KGDB to set break point.
     KGDB already dropped this; now uses its core write to set break point.

  2: io_block_mapping() to create TLB in segmentation size (not PAGE_SIZE)
     for device IO space.
     This use case is also removed from the latest PowerPC kernel.

However, there may still be a use case for it in the future, like
large user pages, so we can't remove it entirely.  As an alternative,
we match on all bits of _PAGE_USER instead of just any bits, so the
case where just _PAGE_BAP_SR is set can't sneak through.

With this done, the TLB appears without U having XWR as below:

-------
L2 TLB1
                                            GT                   SSS UUU V I

After a migration occurs, and what is the majority of this code, the device

elevator: fix oops on early call to elevator_change()

2.6.36 introduces an API for drivers to switch the IO scheduler
instead of manually calling the elevator exit and init functions.
This API was added since q->elevator must be cleared in between
those two calls. And since we already have this functionality
directly from use by the sysfs interface to switch schedulers
online, it was prudent to reuse it internally too.

But this API needs the queue to be in a fully initialized state
before it is called, or it will attempt to unregister elevator
kobjects before they have been added. This results in an oops

14 years agoxfs: properly account for reclaimed inodes
Johannes Weiner [Fri, 1 Oct 2010 07:43:54 +0000 (07:43 +0000)]
xfs: properly account for reclaimed inodes

When marking an inode reclaimable, a per-AG counter is increased, the
inode is tagged reclaimable in its per-AG tree, and, when this is the
first reclaimable inode in the AG, the AG entry in the per-mount tree
is also tagged.

When an inode is finally reclaimed, however, it is only deleted from
the per-AG tree.  Neither the counter is decreased, nor is the parent
tree's AG entry untagged properly.

Since the tags in the per-mount tree are not cleared, the inode
shrinker iterates over all AGs that have had reclaimable inodes at one
point in time.

The counters on the other hand signal an increasing amount of slab
objects to reclaim.  Since "70e60ce xfs: convert inode shrinker to
per-filesystem context" this is not a real issue anymore because the
shrinker bails out after one iteration.

But the problem was observable on a machine running v2.6.34, where the
reclaimable work increased and each process going into direct reclaim
eventually got stuck on the xfs inode shrinking path, trying to scan
several million objects.

Fix this by properly unwinding the reclaimable-state tracking of an
inode when it is reclaimed.

modules: Fix module_bug_list list corruption race

With all the recent module loading cleanups, we've minimized the code
that sits under module_mutex, fixing various deadlocks and making it
possible to do most of the module loading in parallel.

However, that whole conversion totally missed the rather obscure code
that adds a new module to the list for BUG() handling.  That code was
doubly obscure because (a) the code itself lives in lib/bugs.c (for
dubious reasons) and (b) it gets called from the architecture-specific
"module_finalize()" rather than from generic code.

Calling it from arch-specific code makes no sense what-so-ever to begin
with, and is now actively wrong since that code isn't protected by the
module loading lock any more.

So this commit moves the "module_bug_{finalize,cleanup}()" calls away
from the arch-specific code, and into the generic code - and in the
process protects it with the module_mutex so that the list operations
are now safe.

Future fixups:
 - move the module list handling code into kernel/module.c where it
   belongs.
 - get rid of 'module_bug_list' and just use the regular list of modules
   (called 'modules' - imagine that) that we already create and maintain
   for other reasons.

Hugh Dickins [Sun, 3 Oct 2010 00:49:08 +0000 (17:49 -0700)]
ksm: fix bad user data when swapping

Building under memory pressure, with KSM on 2.6.36-rc5, collapsed with
an internal compiler error: typically indicating an error in swapping.

Perhaps there's a timing issue which makes it now more likely, perhaps
it's just a long time since I tried for so long: this bug goes back to
KSM swapping in 2.6.33.

Notice how reuse_swap_page() allows an exclusive page to be reused, but
only does SetPageDirty if it can delete it from swap cache right then -
if it's currently under Writeback, it has to be left in cache and we
don't SetPageDirty, but the page can be reused.  Fine, the dirty bit
will get set in the pte; but notice how zap_pte_range() does not bother
to transfer pte_dirty to page_dirty when unmapping a PageAnon.

If KSM chooses to share such a page, it will look like a clean copy of
swapcache, and not be written out to swap when its memory is needed;
then stale data read back from swap when it's needed again.

We could fix this in reuse_swap_page() (or even refuse to reuse a
page under writeback), but it's more honest to fix my oversight in
KSM's write_protect_page().  Several days of testing on three machines
confirms that this fixes the issue they showed.

ksm: fix page_address_in_vma anon_vma oops

2.6.36-rc1 commit 21d0d443cdc1658a8c1484fdcece4803f0f96d0e "rmap:
resurrect page_address_in_vma anon_vma check" was right to resurrect
that check; but now that it's comparing anon_vma->roots instead of
just anon_vmas, there's a danger of oopsing on a NULL anon_vma.

In most cases no NULL anon_vma ever gets here; but it turns out that
occasionally KSM, when enabled on a forked or forking process, will
itself call page_address_in_vma() on a "half-KSM" page left over from
an earlier failed attempt to merge - whose page_anon_vma() is NULL.

It's my bug that those should be getting here at all: I thought they
were already dealt with, this oops proves me wrong, I'll fix it in
the next release - such pages are effectively pinned until their
process exits, since rmap cannot find their ptes (though swapoff can).

For now just work around it by making page_address_in_vma() safe (and
add a comment on why that check is wanted anyway).  A similar check
in __page_check_anon_rmap() is safe because do_page_add_anon_rmap()
already excluded KSM pages.
