Pull slab updates from Vlastimil Babka:
"This time it's mostly refactoring and improving APIs for slab users in
the kernel, along with some debugging improvements.
- kmem_cache_create() refactoring (Christian Brauner)
Over the years have been growing new parameters to
kmem_cache_create() where most of them are needed only for a small
number of caches - most recently the rcu_freeptr_offset parameter.
To avoid adding new parameters to kmem_cache_create() and adjusting
all its callers, or creating new wrappers such as
kmem_cache_create_rcu(), we can now pass extra parameters using the
new struct kmem_cache_args. Not explicitly initialized fields
default to values interpreted as unused.
kmem_cache_create() is for now a wrapper that works both with the
new form: kmem_cache_create(name, object_size, args, flags) and the
legacy form: kmem_cache_create(name, object_size, align, flags,
ctor)
- kmem_cache_destroy() waits for kfree_rcu()'s in flight (Vlastimil
Babka, Uladislau Rezki)
Since SLOB removal, kfree() is allowed for freeing objects
allocated by kmem_cache_create(). By extension kfree_rcu() as
allowed as well, which can allow converting simple call_rcu()
callbacks that only do kmem_cache_free(), as there was never a
kmem_cache_free_rcu() variant. However, for caches that can be
destroyed e.g. on module removal, the cache owners knew to issue
rcu_barrier() first to wait for the pending call_rcu()'s, and this
is not sufficient for pending kfree_rcu()'s due to its internal
batching optimizations. Ulad has provided a new
kvfree_rcu_barrier() and to make the usage less error-prone,
kmem_cache_destroy() calls it. Additionally, destroying
SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU caches now again issues rcu_barrier()
synchronously instead of using an async work, because the past
motivation for async work no longer applies. Users of custom
call_rcu() callbacks should however keep calling rcu_barrier()
before cache destruction.
- Debugging use-after-free in SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU caches (Jann Horn)
Currently, KASAN cannot catch UAFs in such caches as it is legal to
access them within a grace period, and we only track the grace
period when trying to free the underlying slab page. The new
CONFIG_SLUB_RCU_DEBUG option changes the freeing of individual
object to be RCU-delayed, after which KASAN can poison them.
- Delayed memcg charging (Shakeel Butt)
In some cases, the memcg is uknown at allocation time, such as
receiving network packets in softirq context. With
kmem_cache_charge() these may be now charged later when the user
and its memcg is known.
- Misc fixes and improvements (Pedro Falcato, Axel Rasmussen,
Christoph Lameter, Yan Zhen, Peng Fan, Xavier)"

Pull io_uring async discard support from Jens Axboe:
"Sitting on top of both the 6.12 block and io_uring core branches,
here's support for async discard through io_uring.
This allows applications to issue async discards, rather than rely on
the blocking sync ioctl discards we already have. The sync support is
difficult to use outside of idle/cleanup periods.
On a real (but slow) device, testing shows the following results when
compared to sync discard:

Pull vfs file updates from Christian Brauner:
"This is the work to cleanup and shrink struct file significantly.
Right now, (focusing on x86) struct file is 232 bytes. After this
series struct file will be 184 bytes aka 3 cacheline and a spare 8
bytes for future extensions at the end of the struct.
With struct file being as ubiquitous as it is this should make a
difference for file heavy workloads and allow further optimizations in
the future.
- struct fown_struct was embedded into struct file letting it take up
32 bytes in total when really it shouldn't even be embedded in
struct file in the first place. Instead, actual users of struct
fown_struct now allocate the struct on demand. This frees up 24
bytes.
- Move struct file_ra_state into the union containg the cleanup hooks
and move f_iocb_flags out of the union. This closes a 4 byte hole
we created earlier and brings struct file to 192 bytes. Which means
struct file is 3 cachelines and we managed to shrink it by 40
bytes.
- Reorder struct file so that nothing crosses a cacheline.
I suspect that in the future we will end up reordering some members
to mitigate false sharing issues or just because someone does
actually provide really good perf data.
- Shrinking struct file to 192 bytes is only part of the work.
Files use a slab that is SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU and when a kmem cache
is created with SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU the free pointer must be
located outside of the object because the cache doesn't know what
part of the memory can safely be overwritten as it may be needed to
prevent object recycling.
That has the consequence that SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU may end up
adding a new cacheline.
So this also contains work to add a new kmem_cache_create_rcu()
function that allows the caller to specify an offset where the
freelist pointer is supposed to be placed. Thus avoiding the
implicit addition of a fourth cacheline.
- And finally this removes the f_version member in struct file.
The f_version member isn't particularly well-defined. It is mainly
used as a cookie to detect concurrent seeks when iterating
directories. But it is also abused by some subsystems for
completely unrelated things.
It is mostly a directory and filesystem specific thing that doesn't
really need to live in struct file and with its wonky semantics it
really lacks a specific function.
For pipes, f_version is (ab)used to defer poll notifications until
a write has happened. And struct pipe_inode_info is used by
multiple struct files in their ->private_data so there's no chance
of pushing that down into file->private_data without introducing
another pointer indirection.
But pipes don't rely on f_pos_lock so this adds a union into struct
file encompassing f_pos_lock and a pipe specific f_pipe member that
pipes can use. This union of course can be extended to other file
types and is similar to what we do in struct inode already"

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the usual pile of misc updates:
Features:
- Add F_CREATED_QUERY fcntl() that allows userspace to query whether
a file was actually created. Often userspace wants to know whether
an O_CREATE request did actually create a file without using
O_EXCL. The current logic is that to first attempts to open the
file without O_CREAT | O_EXCL and if ENOENT is returned userspace
tries again with both flags. If that succeeds all is well. If it
now reports EEXIST it retries.
That works fairly well but some corner cases make this more
involved. If this operates on a dangling symlink the first openat()
without O_CREAT | O_EXCL will return ENOENT but the second openat()
with O_CREAT | O_EXCL will fail with EEXIST.
The reason is that openat() without O_CREAT | O_EXCL follows the
symlink while O_CREAT | O_EXCL doesn't for security reasons. So
it's not something we can really change unless we add an explicit
opt-in via O_FOLLOW which seems really ugly.
All available workarounds are really nasty (fanotify, bpf lsm etc)
so add a simple fcntl().
- Try an opportunistic lookup for O_CREAT. Today, when opening a file
we'll typically do a fast lookup, but if O_CREAT is set, the kernel
always takes the exclusive inode lock. This was likely done with
the expectation that O_CREAT means that we always expect to do the
create, but that's often not the case. Many programs set O_CREAT
even in scenarios where the file already exists (see related
F_CREATED_QUERY patch motivation above).
The series contained in the pr rearranges the pathwalk-for-open
code to also attempt a fast_lookup in certain O_CREAT cases. If a
positive dentry is found, the inode_lock can be avoided altogether
and it can stay in rcuwalk mode for the last step_into.
- Expose the 64 bit mount id via name_to_handle_at()
Now that we provide a unique 64-bit mount ID interface in statx(2),
we can now provide a race-free way for name_to_handle_at(2) to
provide a file handle and corresponding mount without needing to
worry about racing with /proc/mountinfo parsing or having to open a
file just to do statx(2).
While this is not necessary if you are using AT_EMPTY_PATH and
don't care about an extra statx(2) call, users that pass full paths
into name_to_handle_at(2) need to know which mount the file handle
comes from (to make sure they don't try to open_by_handle_at a file
handle from a different filesystem) and switching to AT_EMPTY_PATH
would require allocating a file for every name_to_handle_at(2) call
- Add a per dentry expire timeout to autofs
There are two fairly well known automounter map formats, the autofs
format and the amd format (more or less System V and Berkley).
Some time ago Linux autofs added an amd map format parser that
implemented a fair amount of the amd functionality. This was done
within the autofs infrastructure and some functionality wasn't
implemented because it either didn't make sense or required extra
kernel changes. The idea was to restrict changes to be within the
existing autofs functionality as much as possible and leave changes
with a wider scope to be considered later.
One of these changes is implementing the amd options:
1) "unmount", expire this mount according to a timeout (same as
the current autofs default).
2) "nounmount", don't expire this mount (same as setting the
autofs timeout to 0 except only for this specific mount) .
3) "utimeout=<seconds>", expire this mount using the specified
timeout (again same as setting the autofs timeout but only for
this mount)
To implement these options per-dentry expire timeouts need to be
implemented for autofs indirect mounts. This is because all map
keys (mounts) for autofs indirect mounts use an expire timeout
stored in the autofs mount super block info. structure and all
indirect mounts use the same expire timeout.
Fixes:
- Fix missing fput for FSCONFIG_SET_FD in autofs
- Use param->file for FSCONFIG_SET_FD in coda
- Delete the 'fs/netfs' proc subtreee when netfs module exits

Merge kmem_cache_create() refactoring by Christian Brauner.
Note this includes a merge of the vfs.file tree that contains the
prerequisity kmem_cache_create_rcu() work.
Merge most of SLUB feature work for 6.12:
- Barrier for pending kfree_rcu() in kmem_cache_destroy() and associated
refactoring of the destroy path (Vlastimil Babka)
- CONFIG_SLUB_RCU_DEBUG to allow KASAN catching UAF bugs in
SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU caches (Jann Horn)
- kmem_cache_charge() for delayed kmemcg charging (Shakeel Butt)
As kmem_cache_create() became a _Generic() wrapper macro, it currently
has no kerneldoc despite being the main API to use. Add it. Also adjust
kmem_cache_create_usercopy() kerneldoc to indicate it is now a legacy
wrapper.
Also expand the kerneldoc for struct kmem_cache_args, especially for the
freeptr_offset field, where important details were removed with the
removal of kmem_cache_create_rcu().

As Jann points out, PFN mappings are special, because unlike normal
memory mappings, there is no lifetime information associated with the
mapping - it is just a raw mapping of PFNs with no reference counting of
a 'struct page'.
That's all very much intentional, but it does mean that it's easy to
mess up the cleanup in case of errors. Yes, a failed mmap() will always
eventually clean up any partial mappings, but without any explicit
lifetime in the page table mapping itself, it's very easy to do the
error handling in the wrong order.
In particular, it's easy to mistakenly free the physical backing store
before the page tables are actually cleaned up and (temporarily) have
stale dangling PTE entries.
To make this situation less error-prone, just make sure that any partial
pfn mapping is torn down early, before any other error handling.

to be passed separately.
Add a new function __kmem_cache_create_args() that takes a struct
kmem_cache_args pointer and port do_kmem_cache_create_usercopy() over to
it.
In follow-up patches we will port the other kmem_cache_create*()
variants over to it as well.

At the moment, the slab objects are charged to the memcg at the
allocation time. However there are cases where slab objects are
allocated at the time where the right target memcg to charge it to is
not known. One such case is the network sockets for the incoming
connection which are allocated in the softirq context.
Couple hundred thousand connections are very normal on large loaded
server and almost all of those sockets underlying those connections get
allocated in the softirq context and thus not charged to any memcg.
However later at the accept() time we know the right target memcg to
charge. Let's add new API to charge already allocated objects, so we can
have better accounting of the memory usage.
To measure the performance impact of this change, tcp_crr is used from
the neper [1] performance suite. Basically it is a network ping pong
test with new connection for each ping pong.
The server and the client are run inside 3 level of cgroup hierarchy
using the following commands:
Server:
$ tcp_crr -6
Client:
$ tcp_crr -6 -c -H ${server_ip}
If the client and server run on different machines with 50 GBPS NIC,
there is no visible impact of the change.
For the same machine experiment with v6.11-rc5 as base.
base (throughput) with-patch
tcp_crr 14545 (+- 80) 14463 (+- 56)
It seems like the performance impact is within the noise.

Since commit 946fa0dbf2 ("mm/slub: extend redzone check to extra

the wasted space (object_size - orig_size) as a redzone. However with
init_on_free=1 we clear the full object->size, including the redzone.
Additionally we clear the object metadata, including the stored orig_size,
making it zero, which makes check_object() treat the whole object as a

To address the issue, use orig_size to clear the used area. And restore
the value of orig_size after clear the remaining area.
When CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG not defined, (get_orig_size()' directly returns
s->object_size. So when using memset to init the area, the size can simply
be orig_size, as orig_size returns object_size when CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG not
enabled. And orig_size can never be bigger than object_size.

The worst case is over 16-33 seconds, so soft lockup is triggered [2].
[Root Cause]
1) Each purge_list has the long list. The following shows the number of
vmap_area is purged.
crash> p vmap_nodes
vmap_nodes = $27 = (struct vmap_node *) 0xff2de5a900100000
crash> vmap_node 0xff2de5a900100000 128 | grep nr_purged
nr_purged = 663070
...
nr_purged = 821670
nr_purged = 692214
nr_purged = 726808
...
2) atomic_long_sub() employs the 'lock' prefix to ensure the atomic
operation when purging each vmap_area. However, the iteration is over
600000 vmap_area (See 'nr_purged' above).
Here is objdump output:
$ objdump -D vmlinux
ffffffff813e8c80 <purge_vmap_node>:
...
ffffffff813e8d70: f0 48 29 2d 68 0c bb lock sub %rbp,0x2bb0c68(%rip)
...
Quote from "Instruction tables" pdf file [3]:
Instructions with a LOCK prefix have a long latency that depends on
cache organization and possibly RAM speed. If there are multiple
processors or cores or direct memory access (DMA) devices, then all
locked instructions will lock a cache line for exclusive access,
which may involve RAM access. A LOCK prefix typically costs more
than a hundred clock cycles, even on single-processor systems.
That's why the latency of purge_vmap_node() dramatically increases
on a many-core system: One core is busy on purging each vmap_area of
the *long* purge_list and executing atomic_long_sub() for each
vmap_area, while other cores free vmalloc allocations and execute
atomic_long_add_return() in free_vmap_area_noflush().
[Solution]
Employ a local variable to record the total purged pages, and execute
atomic_long_sub() after the traversal of the purge_list is done. The
experiment result shows the latency improvement is 99%.

Patch series "userfaultfd: fix races around pmd_trans_huge() check", v2.
The pmd_trans_huge() code in mfill_atomic() is wrong in three different
ways depending on kernel version:
1. The pmd_trans_huge() check is racy and can lead to a BUG_ON() (if you hit
the right two race windows) - I've tested this in a kernel build with
some extra mdelay() calls. See the commit message for a description
of the race scenario.
On older kernels (before 6.5), I think the same bug can even
theoretically lead to accessing transhuge page contents as a page table
if you hit the right 5 narrow race windows (I haven't tested this case).
2. As pointed out by Qi Zheng, pmd_trans_huge() is not sufficient for
detecting PMDs that don't point to page tables.
On older kernels (before 6.5), you'd just have to win a single fairly
wide race to hit this.
I've tested this on 6.1 stable by racing migration (with a mdelay()
patched into try_to_migrate()) against UFFDIO_ZEROPAGE - on my x86
VM, that causes a kernel oops in ptlock_ptr().
3. On newer kernels (>=6.5), for shmem mappings, khugepaged is allowed
to yank page tables out from under us (though I haven't tested that),
so I think the BUG_ON() checks in mfill_atomic() are just wrong.
I decided to write two separate fixes for these (one fix for bugs 1+2, one
fix for bug 3), so that the first fix can be backported to kernels
affected by bugs 1+2.
This patch (of 2):
This fixes two issues.
I discovered that the following race can occur:
mfill_atomic other thread
============ ============
<zap PMD>
pmdp_get_lockless() [reads none pmd]
<bail if trans_huge>
<if none:>
<pagefault creates transhuge zeropage>
__pte_alloc [no-op]
<zap PMD>
<bail if pmd_trans_huge(*dst_pmd)>
BUG_ON(pmd_none(*dst_pmd))
I have experimentally verified this in a kernel with extra mdelay() calls;
the BUG_ON(pmd_none(*dst_pmd)) triggers.
On kernels newer than commit 0d940a9b27 ("mm/pgtable: allow
pte_offset_map[_lock]() to fail"), this can't lead to anything worse than
a BUG_ON(), since the page table access helpers are actually designed to
deal with page tables concurrently disappearing; but on older kernels
(<=6.4), I think we could probably theoretically race past the two
BUG_ON() checks and end up treating a hugepage as a page table.
The second issue is that, as Qi Zheng pointed out, there are other types
of huge PMDs that pmd_trans_huge() can't catch: devmap PMDs and swap PMDs
(in particular, migration PMDs).
On <=6.4, this is worse than the first issue: If mfill_atomic() runs on a
PMD that contains a migration entry (which just requires winning a single,
fairly wide race), it will pass the PMD to pte_offset_map_lock(), which
assumes that the PMD points to a page table.
Breakage follows: First, the kernel tries to take the PTE lock (which will
crash or maybe worse if there is no "struct page" for the address bits in
the migration entry PMD - I think at least on X86 there usually is no
corresponding "struct page" thanks to the PTE inversion mitigation, amd64
looks different).
If that didn't crash, the kernel would next try to write a PTE into what
it wrongly thinks is a page table.
As part of fixing these issues, get rid of the check for pmd_trans_huge()
before __pte_alloc() - that's redundant, we're going to have to check for
that after the __pte_alloc() anyway.
Backport note: pmdp_get_lockless() is pmd_read_atomic() in older kernels.

Commit 8c61291fd8 ("mm: fix incorrect vbq reference in
purge_fragmented_block") extended the 'vmap_block' structure to contain a
'cpu' field which is set at allocation time to the id of the initialising
CPU.
When a new 'vmap_block' is being instantiated by new_vmap_block(), the
partially initialised structure is added to the local 'vmap_block_queue'
xarray before the 'cpu' field has been initialised. If another CPU is
concurrently walking the xarray (e.g. via vm_unmap_aliases()), then it
may perform an out-of-bounds access to the remote queue thanks to an
uninitialised index.
This has been observed as UBSAN errors in Android:

Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
- x2apic_disable() clears x2apic_state and x2apic_mode unconditionally,
even when the state is X2APIC_ON_LOCKED, which prevents the kernel to
disable it thereby creating inconsistent state.
Reorder the logic so it actually works correctly
- The XSTATE logic for handling LBR is incorrect as it assumes that
XSAVES supports LBR when the CPU supports LBR. In fact both
conditions need to be true. Otherwise the enablement of LBR in the
IA32_XSS MSR fails and subsequently the machine crashes on the next
XRSTORS operation because IA32_XSS is not initialized.
Cache the XSTATE support bit during init and make the related
functions use this cached information and the LBR CPU feature bit to
cure this.
- Cure a long standing bug in KASLR
KASLR uses the full address space between PAGE_OFFSET and vaddr_end
to randomize the starting points of the direct map, vmalloc and
vmemmap regions. It thereby limits the size of the direct map by
using the installed memory size plus an extra configurable margin for
hot-plug memory. This limitation is done to gain more randomization
space because otherwise only the holes between the direct map,
vmalloc, vmemmap and vaddr_end would be usable for randomizing.
The limited direct map size is not exposed to the rest of the kernel,
so the memory hot-plug and resource management related code paths
still operate under the assumption that the available address space
can be determined with MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS.
request_free_mem_region() allocates from (1 << MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS) - 1
downwards. That means the first allocation happens past the end of
the direct map and if unlucky this address is in the vmalloc space,
which causes high_memory to become greater than VMALLOC_START and
consequently causes iounmap() to fail for valid ioremap addresses.
Cure this by exposing the end of the direct map via PHYSMEM_END and
use that for the memory hot-plug and resource management related
places instead of relying on MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS. In the KASLR case
PHYSMEM_END maps to a variable which is initialized by the KASLR
initialization and otherwise it is based on MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS as
before.
- Prevent a data leak in mmio_read(). The TDVMCALL exposes the value of
an initialized variabled on the stack to the VMM. The variable is
only required as output value, so it does not have to exposed to the
VMM in the first place.
- Prevent an array overrun in the resource control code on systems with
Sub-NUMA Clustering enabled because the code failed to adjust the
index by the number of SNC nodes per L3 cache.

When a kmem cache is created with SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU the free pointer
must be located outside of the object because we don't know what part of
the memory can safely be overwritten as it may be needed to prevent
object recycling.
That has the consequence that SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU may end up adding a
new cacheline. This is the case for e.g., struct file. After having it
shrunk down by 40 bytes and having it fit in three cachelines we still
have SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU adding a fourth cacheline because it needs to
accommodate the free pointer.
Add a new kmem_cache_create_rcu() function that allows the caller to
specify an offset where the free pointer is supposed to be placed.

Currently, KASAN is unable to catch use-after-free in SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU
slabs because use-after-free is allowed within the RCU grace period by
design.
Add a SLUB debugging feature which RCU-delays every individual
kmem_cache_free() before either actually freeing the object or handing it
off to KASAN, and change KASAN to poison freed objects as normal when this
option is enabled.
For now I've configured Kconfig.debug to default-enable this feature in the
KASAN GENERIC and SW_TAGS modes; I'm not enabling it by default in HW_TAGS
mode because I'm not sure if it might have unwanted performance degradation
effects there.
Note that this is mostly useful with KASAN in the quarantine-based GENERIC
mode; SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU slabs are basically always also slabs with a
->ctor, and KASAN's assign_tag() currently has to assign fixed tags for
those, reducing the effectiveness of SW_TAGS/HW_TAGS mode.
(A possible future extension of this work would be to also let SLUB call
the ->ctor() on every allocation instead of only when the slab page is
allocated; then tag-based modes would be able to assign new tags on every
reallocation.)

Currently, when KASAN is combined with init-on-free behavior, the
initialization happens before KASAN's "invalid free" checks.
More importantly, a subsequent commit will want to RCU-delay the actual
SLUB freeing of an object, and we'd like KASAN to still validate
synchronously that freeing the object is permitted. (Otherwise this
change will make the existing testcase kmem_cache_invalid_free fail.)
So add a new KASAN hook that allows KASAN to pre-validate a
kmem_cache_free() operation before SLUB actually starts modifying the
object or its metadata.
Inside KASAN, this:
- moves checks from poison_slab_object() into check_slab_allocation()
- moves kasan_arch_is_ready() up into callers of poison_slab_object()
- removes "ip" argument of poison_slab_object() and __kasan_slab_free()
(since those functions no longer do any reporting)

We would like to replace call_rcu() users with kfree_rcu() where the
existing callback is just a kmem_cache_free(). However this causes
issues when the cache can be destroyed (such as due to module unload).
Currently such modules should be issuing rcu_barrier() before
kmem_cache_destroy() to have their call_rcu() callbacks processed first.
This barrier is however not sufficient for kfree_rcu() in flight due
to the batching introduced by a35d16905e ("rcu: Add basic support for
kfree_rcu() batching").
This is not a problem for kmalloc caches which are never destroyed, but
since removing SLOB, kfree_rcu() is allowed also for any other cache,
that might be destroyed.
In order not to complicate the API, put the responsibility for handling
outstanding kfree_rcu() in kmem_cache_destroy() itself. Use the newly
introduced kvfree_rcu_barrier() to wait before destroying the cache.
This is similar to how we issue rcu_barrier() for SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU
caches, but has to be done earlier, as the latter only needs to wait for
the empty slab pages to finish freeing, and not objects from the slab.
Users of call_rcu() with arbitrary callbacks should still issue
rcu_barrier() before destroying the cache and unloading the module, as
kvfree_rcu_barrier() is not a superset of rcu_barrier() and the
callbacks may be invoking module code or performing other actions that
are necessary for a successful unload.
