kernel/exit.c: release ptraced tasks before zap_pid_ns_processes

2019-02-01T23:46:23+00:00

Currently, exit_ptrace() adds all ptraced tasks in a dead list, then
zap_pid_ns_processes() waits on all tasks in a current pidns, and only
then are tasks from the dead list released.

zap_pid_ns_processes() can get stuck on waiting tasks from the dead
list.  In this case, we will have one unkillable process with one or
more dead children.

Thanks to Oleg for the advice to release tasks in find_child_reaper().

cgroup/pids: turn cgroup_subsys->free() into cgroup_subsys->release() to fix the accounting

2019-01-31T14:55:57+00:00

The only user of cgroup_subsys->free() callback is pids_cgrp_subsys which
needs pids_free() to uncharge the pid.

However, ->free() is called from __put_task_struct()->cgroup_free() and this
is too late. Even the trivial program which does

	for (;;) {
		int pid = fork();
		assert(pid >= 0);
		if (pid)
			wait(NULL);
		else
			exit(0);
	}

can run out of limits because release_task()->call_rcu(delayed_put_task_struct)
implies an RCU gp after the task/pid goes away and before the final put().

Test-case:

	mkdir -p /tmp/CG
	mount -t cgroup2 none /tmp/CG
	echo '+pids' > /tmp/CG/cgroup.subtree_control

	mkdir /tmp/CG/PID
	echo 2 > /tmp/CG/PID/pids.max

	perl -e 'while ($p = fork) { wait; } $p // die "fork failed: $!\n"' &
	echo $! > /tmp/CG/PID/cgroup.procs

Without this patch the forking process fails soon after migration.

Rename cgroup_subsys->free() to cgroup_subsys->release() and move the callsite
into the new helper, cgroup_release(), called by release_task() which actually
frees the pid(s).

sched/wait: Fix rcuwait_wake_up() ordering

2019-01-21T10:15:36+00:00

For some peculiar reason rcuwait_wake_up() has the right barrier in
the comment, but not in the code.

This mistake has been observed to cause a deadlock in the following
situation:

    P1					P2

    percpu_up_read()			percpu_down_write()
      rcu_sync_is_idle() // false
					  rcu_sync_enter()
					  ...
      __percpu_up_read()

[S] ,-  __this_cpu_dec(*sem->read_count)
    |   smp_rmb();
[L] |   task = rcu_dereference(w->task) // NULL
    |
    |				    [S]	    w->task = current
    |					    smp_mb();
    |				    [L]	    readers_active_check() // fail
    `-> 

Where the smp_rmb() (obviously) fails to constrain the store.

umh: add exit routine for UMH process

2019-01-12T02:05:40+00:00

A UMH process which is created by the fork_usermode_blob() such as
bpfilter needs to release members of the umh_info when process is
terminated.
But the do_exit() does not release members of the umh_info. hence module
which uses UMH needs own code to detect whether UMH process is
terminated or not.
But this implementation needs extra code for checking the status of
UMH process. it eventually makes the code more complex.

The new PF_UMH flag is added and it is used to identify UMH processes.
The exit_umh() does not release members of the umh_info.
Hence umh_info->cleanup callback should release both members of the
umh_info and the private data.

make 'user_access_begin()' do 'access_ok()'

2019-01-04T20:56:09+00:00

Originally, the rule used to be that you'd have to do access_ok()
separately, and then user_access_begin() before actually doing the
direct (optimized) user access.

But experience has shown that people then decide not to do access_ok()
at all, and instead rely on it being implied by other operations or
similar.  Which makes it very hard to verify that the access has
actually been range-checked.

If you use the unsafe direct user accesses, hardware features (either
SMAP - Supervisor Mode Access Protection - on x86, or PAN - Privileged
Access Never - on ARM) do force you to use user_access_begin().  But
nothing really forces the range check.

By putting the range check into user_access_begin(), we actually force
people to do the right thing (tm), and the range check vill be visible
near the actual accesses.  We have way too long a history of people
trying to avoid them.

Remove 'type' argument from access_ok() function

2019-01-04T02:57:57+00:00

Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument
of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the
old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand.

It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect
bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any
user access.  But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these
days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact.

A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range
checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to
move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model.  And it's best done at
the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's
just get this done once and for all.

This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for
the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form.

There were a couple of notable cases:

 - csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias.

 - the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual
   values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing
   really used it)

 - microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout

but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch.

I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for
access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed
something.  Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though.

pid: Implement PIDTYPE_TGID

2018-07-21T15:43:12+00:00

Everywhere except in the pid array we distinguish between a tasks pid and
a tasks tgid (thread group id).  Even in the enumeration we want that
distinction sometimes so we have added __PIDTYPE_TGID.  With leader_pid
we almost have an implementation of PIDTYPE_TGID in struct signal_struct.

Add PIDTYPE_TGID as a first class member of the pid_type enumeration and
into the pids array.  Then remove the __PIDTYPE_TGID special case and the
leader_pid in signal_struct.

The net size increase is just an extra pointer added to struct pid and
an extra pair of pointers of an hlist_node added to task_struct.

The effect on code maintenance is the removal of a number of special
cases today and the potential to remove many more special cases as
PIDTYPE_TGID gets used to it's fullest.  The long term potential
is allowing zombie thread group leaders to exit, which will remove
a lot more special cases in the code.
