For each memory location KernelMemorySanitizer maintains two types of
metadata:
1. The so-called shadow of that location - а byte:byte mapping describing
whether or not individual bits of memory are initialized (shadow is 0)
or not (shadow is 1).
2. The origins of that location - а 4-byte:4-byte mapping containing
4-byte IDs of the stack traces where uninitialized values were
created.
Each struct page now contains pointers to two struct pages holding KMSAN
metadata (shadow and origins) for the original struct page. Utility
routines in mm/kmsan/core.c and mm/kmsan/shadow.c handle the metadata
creation, addressing, copying and checking. mm/kmsan/report.c performs
error reporting in the cases an uninitialized value is used in a way that
leads to undefined behavior.
KMSAN compiler instrumentation is responsible for tracking the metadata
along with the kernel memory. mm/kmsan/instrumentation.c provides the
implementation for instrumentation hooks that are called from files
compiled with -fsanitize=kernel-memory.
To aid parameter passing (also done at instrumentation level), each
task_struct now contains a struct kmsan_task_state used to track the
metadata of function parameters and return values for that task.
Finally, this patch provides CONFIG_KMSAN that enables KMSAN, and declares
CFLAGS_KMSAN, which are applied to files compiled with KMSAN. The
KMSAN_SANITIZE:=n Makefile directive can be used to completely disable
KMSAN instrumentation for certain files.
Similarly, KMSAN_ENABLE_CHECKS:=n disables KMSAN checks and makes newly
created stack memory initialized.
Users can also use functions from include/linux/kmsan-checks.h to mark
certain memory regions as uninitialized or initialized (this is called
"poisoning" and "unpoisoning") or check that a particular region is
initialized.

Patch series "Add KernelMemorySanitizer infrastructure", v7.
KernelMemorySanitizer (KMSAN) is a detector of errors related to uses of
uninitialized memory. It relies on compile-time Clang instrumentation
(similar to MSan in the userspace [1]) and tracks the state of every bit
of kernel memory, being able to report an error if uninitialized value is
used in a condition, dereferenced, or escapes to userspace, USB or DMA.
KMSAN has reported more than 300 bugs in the past few years (recently
fixed bugs: [2]), most of them with the help of syzkaller. Such bugs keep
getting introduced into the kernel despite new compiler warnings and other
analyses (the 6.0 cycle already resulted in several KMSAN-reported bugs,
e.g. [3]). Mitigations like total stack and heap initialization are
unfortunately very far from being deployable.
The proposed patchset contains KMSAN runtime implementation together with
small changes to other subsystems needed to make KMSAN work.
The latter changes fall into several categories:
1. Changes and refactorings of existing code required to add KMSAN:
- [01/43] x86: add missing include to sparsemem.h
- [02/43] stackdepot: reserve 5 extra bits in depot_stack_handle_t
- [03/43] instrumented.h: allow instrumenting both sides of copy_from_user()
- [04/43] x86: asm: instrument usercopy in get_user() and __put_user_size()
- [05/43] asm-generic: instrument usercopy in cacheflush.h
- [10/43] libnvdimm/pfn_dev: increase MAX_STRUCT_PAGE_SIZE
2. KMSAN-related declarations in generic code, KMSAN runtime library,
docs and configs:
- [06/43] kmsan: add ReST documentation
- [07/43] kmsan: introduce __no_sanitize_memory and __no_kmsan_checks
- [09/43] x86: kmsan: pgtable: reduce vmalloc space
- [11/43] kmsan: add KMSAN runtime core
- [13/43] MAINTAINERS: add entry for KMSAN
- [24/43] kmsan: add tests for KMSAN
- [31/43] objtool: kmsan: list KMSAN API functions as uaccess-safe
- [35/43] x86: kmsan: use __msan_ string functions where possible
- [43/43] x86: kmsan: enable KMSAN builds for x86
3. Adding hooks from different subsystems to notify KMSAN about memory
state changes:
- [14/43] mm: kmsan: maintain KMSAN metadata for page
- [15/43] mm: kmsan: call KMSAN hooks from SLUB code
- [16/43] kmsan: handle task creation and exiting
- [17/43] init: kmsan: call KMSAN initialization routines
- [18/43] instrumented.h: add KMSAN support
- [19/43] kmsan: add iomap support
- [20/43] Input: libps2: mark data received in __ps2_command() as initialized
- [21/43] dma: kmsan: unpoison DMA mappings
- [34/43] x86: kmsan: handle open-coded assembly in lib/iomem.c
- [36/43] x86: kmsan: sync metadata pages on page fault
4. Changes that prevent false reports by explicitly initializing memory,
disabling optimized code that may trick KMSAN, selectively skipping
instrumentation:
- [08/43] kmsan: mark noinstr as __no_sanitize_memory
- [12/43] kmsan: disable instrumentation of unsupported common kernel code
- [22/43] virtio: kmsan: check/unpoison scatterlist in vring_map_one_sg()
- [23/43] kmsan: handle memory sent to/from USB
- [25/43] kmsan: disable strscpy() optimization under KMSAN
- [26/43] crypto: kmsan: disable accelerated configs under KMSAN
- [27/43] kmsan: disable physical page merging in biovec
- [28/43] block: kmsan: skip bio block merging logic for KMSAN
- [29/43] kcov: kmsan: unpoison area->list in kcov_remote_area_put()
- [30/43] security: kmsan: fix interoperability with auto-initialization
- [32/43] x86: kmsan: disable instrumentation of unsupported code
- [33/43] x86: kmsan: skip shadow checks in __switch_to()
- [37/43] x86: kasan: kmsan: support CONFIG_GENERIC_CSUM on x86, enable it for KASAN/KMSAN
- [38/43] x86: fs: kmsan: disable CONFIG_DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS
- [39/43] x86: kmsan: don't instrument stack walking functions
- [40/43] entry: kmsan: introduce kmsan_unpoison_entry_regs()
5. Fixes for bugs detected with CONFIG_KMSAN_CHECK_PARAM_RETVAL:
- [41/43] bpf: kmsan: initialize BPF registers with zeroes
- [42/43] mm: fs: initialize fsdata passed to write_begin/write_end interface
This patchset allows one to boot and run a defconfig+KMSAN kernel on a
QEMU without known false positives. It however doesn't guarantee there
are no false positives in drivers of certain devices or less tested
subsystems, although KMSAN is actively tested on syzbot with a large
config.
By default, KMSAN enforces conservative checks of most kernel function
parameters passed by value (via CONFIG_KMSAN_CHECK_PARAM_RETVAL, which
maps to the -fsanitize-memory-param-retval compiler flag). As discussed
in [4] and [5], passing uninitialized values as function parameters is
considered undefined behavior, therefore KMSAN now reports such cases as
errors. Several newly added patches fix known manifestations of these
errors.
This patch (of 43):
Including sparsemem.h from other files (e.g. transitively via
asm/pgtable_64_types.h) results in compilation errors due to unknown
types:
sparsemem.h:34:32: error: unknown type name 'phys_addr_t'
extern int phys_to_target_node(phys_addr_t start);
^
sparsemem.h:36:39: error: unknown type name 'u64'
extern int memory_add_physaddr_to_nid(u64 start);
^
Fix these errors by including linux/types.h from sparsemem.h This is
required for the upcoming KMSAN patches.

The new hugetlb vma lock is used to address this race:
Faulting thread Unsharing thread
... ...
ptep = huge_pte_offset()
or
ptep = huge_pte_alloc()
...
i_mmap_lock_write
lock page table
ptep invalid <------------------------ huge_pmd_unshare()
Could be in a previously unlock_page_table
sharing process or worse i_mmap_unlock_write
...
The vma_lock is used as follows:
- During fault processing. The lock is acquired in read mode before
doing a page table lock and allocation (huge_pte_alloc). The lock is
held until code is finished with the page table entry (ptep).
- The lock must be held in write mode whenever huge_pmd_unshare is
called.
Lock ordering issues come into play when unmapping a page from all
vmas mapping the page. The i_mmap_rwsem must be held to search for the
vmas, and the vma lock must be held before calling unmap which will
call huge_pmd_unshare. This is done today in:
- try_to_migrate_one and try_to_unmap_ for page migration and memory
error handling. In these routines we 'try' to obtain the vma lock and
fail to unmap if unsuccessful. Calling routines already deal with the
failure of unmapping.
- hugetlb_vmdelete_list for truncation and hole punch. This routine
also tries to acquire the vma lock. If it fails, it skips the
unmapping. However, we can not have file truncation or hole punch
fail because of contention. After hugetlb_vmdelete_list, truncation
and hole punch call remove_inode_hugepages. remove_inode_hugepages
checks for mapped pages and call hugetlb_unmap_file_page to unmap them.
hugetlb_unmap_file_page is designed to drop locks and reacquire in the
correct order to guarantee unmap success.

Commit c0d0381ade ("hugetlbfs: use i_mmap_rwsem for more pmd sharing
synchronization") added code to take i_mmap_rwsem in read mode for the
duration of fault processing. However, this has been shown to cause
performance/scaling issues. Revert the code and go back to only taking
the semaphore in huge_pmd_share during the fault path.
Keep the code that takes i_mmap_rwsem in write mode before calling
try_to_unmap as this is required if huge_pmd_unshare is called.
NOTE: Reverting this code does expose the following race condition.
Faulting thread Unsharing thread
... ...
ptep = huge_pte_offset()
or
ptep = huge_pte_alloc()
...
i_mmap_lock_write
lock page table
ptep invalid <------------------------ huge_pmd_unshare()
Could be in a previously unlock_page_table
sharing process or worse i_mmap_unlock_write
...
ptl = huge_pte_lock(ptep)
get/update pte
set_pte_at(pte, ptep)
It is unknown if the above race was ever experienced by a user. It was
discovered via code inspection when initially addressed.
In subsequent patches, a new synchronization mechanism will be added to
coordinate pmd sharing and eliminate this race.

Patch series "hugetlb: Use new vma lock for huge pmd sharing
synchronization", v2.
hugetlb fault scalability regressions have recently been reported [1].
This is not the first such report, as regressions were also noted when
commit c0d0381ade ("hugetlbfs: use i_mmap_rwsem for more pmd sharing
synchronization") was added [2] in v5.7. At that time, a proposal to
address the regression was suggested [3] but went nowhere.
The regression and benefit of this patch series is not evident when
using the vm_scalability benchmark reported in [2] on a recent kernel.

The recent regression report [1] notes page fault and fork latency of
shared hugetlb mappings. To measure this, I created two simple programs:
1) map a shared hugetlb area, write fault all pages, unmap area
Do this in a continuous loop to measure faults per second
2) map a shared hugetlb area, write fault a few pages, fork and exit
Do this in a continuous loop to measure forks per second
These programs were run on a 48 CPU VM with 320GB memory. The shared
mapping size was 250GB. For comparison, a single instance of the program
was run. Then, multiple instances were run in parallel to introduce
lock contention. Changing the locking scheme results in a significant
performance benefit.

Combined test is when running both faulting program and forking program
simultaneously.
Patches 1 and 2 of this series revert c0d0381ade and 87bf91d39b which
depends on c0d0381ade. Acquisition of i_mmap_rwsem is still required in
the fault path to establish pmd sharing, so this is moved back to
huge_pmd_share. With c0d0381ade reverted, this race is exposed:
Faulting thread Unsharing thread
... ...
ptep = huge_pte_offset()
or
ptep = huge_pte_alloc()
...
i_mmap_lock_write
lock page table
ptep invalid <------------------------ huge_pmd_unshare()
Could be in a previously unlock_page_table
sharing process or worse i_mmap_unlock_write
...
ptl = huge_pte_lock(ptep)
get/update pte
set_pte_at(pte, ptep)
Reverting 87bf91d39b exposes races in page fault/file truncation. When
the new vma lock is put to use in patch 8, this will handle the fault/file
truncation races. This is explained in patch 9 where code associated with
these races is cleaned up.
Patches 3 - 5 restructure existing code in preparation for using the new
vma lock (rw semaphore) for pmd sharing synchronization. The idea is that
this semaphore will be held in read mode for the duration of fault
processing, and held in write mode for unmap operations which may call
huge_pmd_unshare. Acquiring i_mmap_rwsem is also still required to
synchronize huge pmd sharing. However it is only required in the fault
path when setting up sharing, and will be acquired in huge_pmd_share().
Patch 6 adds the new vma lock and all supporting routines, but does not
actually change code to use the new lock.
Patch 7 refactors code in preparation for using the new lock. And, patch
8 finally adds code to make use of this new vma lock. Unfortunately, the
fault code and truncate/hole punch code would naturally take locks in the
opposite order which could lead to deadlock. Since the performance of
page faults is more important, the truncation/hole punch code is modified
to back out and take locks in the correct order if necessary.

This patch (of 9):
Commit c0d0381ade ("hugetlbfs: use i_mmap_rwsem for more pmd sharing
synchronization") added code to take i_mmap_rwsem in read mode for the
duration of fault processing. The use of i_mmap_rwsem to prevent
fault/truncate races depends on this. However, this has been shown to
cause performance/scaling issues. As a result, that code will be
reverted. Since the use i_mmap_rwsem to address page fault/truncate races
depends on this, it must also be reverted.
In a subsequent patch, code will be added to detect the fault/truncate
race and back out operations as required.

The name "check_free_page()" provides no information regarding its return
value when the page is indeed found to be bad.
Renaming it to "free_page_is_bad()" makes it clear that a `true' return
value means the page was bad.
And make it return a bool, not an int.

When the 'kdamond_wait_activation()' function or 'after_sampling()' or
'after_aggregation()' DAMON callbacks return an error, it is unnecessary
to use bool 'done' to check if kdamond should be finished. This commit
simplifies the kdamond stop mechanism by removing 'done' and break the
while loop directly in the cases.
