treewide: Use fallthrough pseudo-keyword

2020-08-23T22:36:59+00:00

Replace the existing /* fall through */ comments and its variants with
the new pseudo-keyword macro fallthrough[1]. Also, remove unnecessary
fall-through markings when it is the case.

uprobes: __replace_page() avoid BUG in munlock_vma_page()

2020-08-21T16:52:53+00:00

syzbot crashed on the VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(PageTail) in munlock_vma_page(), when
called from uprobes __replace_page().  Which of many ways to fix it?
Settled on not calling when PageCompound (since Head and Tail are equals
in this context, PageCompound the usual check in uprobes.c, and the prior
use of FOLL_SPLIT_PMD will have cleared PageMlocked already).

Fixes: 5a52c9df62b4 ("uprobe: use FOLL_SPLIT_PMD instead of FOLL_SPLIT")

mm/gup: remove task_struct pointer for all gup code

2020-08-12T17:58:04+00:00

After the cleanup of page fault accounting, gup does not need to pass
task_struct around any more.  Remove that parameter in the whole gup
stack.

uaccess: add force_uaccess_{begin,end} helpers

2020-08-12T17:57:59+00:00

Add helpers to wrap the get_fs/set_fs magic for undoing any damange done
by set_fs(KERNEL_DS).  There is no real functional benefit, but this
documents the intent of these calls better, and will allow stubbing the
functions out easily for kernels builds that do not allow address space
overrides in the future.

mm/vmscan: protect the workingset on anonymous LRU

2020-08-12T17:57:55+00:00

In current implementation, newly created or swap-in anonymous page is
started on active list.  Growing active list results in rebalancing
active/inactive list so old pages on active list are demoted to inactive
list.  Hence, the page on active list isn't protected at all.

Following is an example of this situation.

Assume that 50 hot pages on active list.  Numbers denote the number of
pages on active/inactive list (active | inactive).

1. 50 hot pages on active list
50(h) | 0

2. workload: 50 newly created (used-once) pages
50(uo) | 50(h)

3. workload: another 50 newly created (used-once) pages
50(uo) | 50(uo), swap-out 50(h)

This patch tries to fix this issue.  Like as file LRU, newly created or
swap-in anonymous pages will be inserted to the inactive list.  They are
promoted to active list if enough reference happens.  This simple
modification changes the above example as following.

1. 50 hot pages on active list
50(h) | 0

2. workload: 50 newly created (used-once) pages
50(h) | 50(uo)

3. workload: another 50 newly created (used-once) pages
50(h) | 50(uo), swap-out 50(uo)

As you can see, hot pages on active list would be protected.

Note that, this implementation has a drawback that the page cannot be
promoted and will be swapped-out if re-access interval is greater than the
size of inactive list but less than the size of total(active+inactive).
To solve this potential issue, following patch will apply workingset
detection similar to the one that's already applied to file LRU.

perf/core: Take over CAP_SYS_PTRACE creds to CAP_PERFMON capability

2020-08-06T13:03:20+00:00

Open access to per-process monitoring for CAP_PERFMON only
privileged processes [1]. Extend ptrace_may_access() check
in perf_events subsystem with perfmon_capable() to simplify
user experience and make monitoring more secure by reducing
attack surface.
