License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

pipe: account to kmemcg Pipes can consume a significant amount of system memory, hence they should be accounted to kmemcg. This patch marks pipe_inode_info and anonymous pipe buffer page allocations as __GFP_ACCOUNT so that they would be charged to kmemcg. Note, since a pipe buffer page can be "stolen" and get reused for other purposes, including mapping to userspace, we clear PageKmemcg thus resetting page->_mapcount and uncharge it in anon_pipe_buf_steal, which is introduced by this patch. A note regarding anon_pipe_buf_steal implementation. We allow to steal the page if its ref count equals 1. It looks racy, but it is correct for anonymous pipe buffer pages, because: - We lock out all other pipe users, because ->steal is called with pipe_lock held, so the page can't be spliced to another pipe from under us. - The page is not on LRU and it never was. - Thus a parallel thread can access it only by PFN. Although this is quite possible (e.g. see page_idle_get_page and balloon_page_isolate) this is not dangerous, because all such functions do is increase page ref count, check if the page is the one they are looking for, and decrease ref count if it isn't. Since our page is clean except for PageKmemcg mark, which doesn't conflict with other _mapcount users, the worst that can happen is we see page_count > 2 due to a transient ref, in which case we false-positively abort ->steal, which is still fine, because ->steal is not guaranteed to succeed.

pipe: Add general notification queue support Make it possible to have a general notification queue built on top of a standard pipe. Notifications are 'spliced' into the pipe and then read out. splice(), vmsplice() and sendfile() are forbidden on pipes used for notifications as post_one_notification() cannot take pipe->mutex. This means that notifications could be posted in between individual pipe buffers, making iov_iter_revert() difficult to effect. The way the notification queue is used is: (1) An application opens a pipe with a special flag and indicates the number of messages it wishes to be able to queue at once (this can only be set once): pipe2(fds, O_NOTIFICATION_PIPE); ioctl(fds[0], IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_SIZE, queue_depth); (2) The application then uses poll() and read() as normal to extract data from the pipe. read() will return multiple notifications if the buffer is big enough, but it will not split a notification across buffers - rather it will return a short read or EMSGSIZE. Notification messages include a length in the header so that the caller can split them up. Each message has a header that describes it: struct watch_notification { __u32 type:24; __u32 subtype:8; __u32 info; }; The type indicates the source (eg. mount tree changes, superblock events, keyring changes, block layer events) and the subtype indicates the event type (eg. mount, unmount; EIO, EDQUOT; link, unlink). The info field indicates a number of things, including the entry length, an ID assigned to a watchpoint contributing to this buffer and type-specific flags. Supplementary data, such as the key ID that generated an event, can be attached in additional slots. The maximum message size is 127 bytes. Messages may not be padded or aligned, so there is no guarantee, for example, that the notification type will be on a 4-byte bounary. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

pipe: limit the per-user amount of pages allocated in pipes On no-so-small systems, it is possible for a single process to cause an OOM condition by filling large pipes with data that are never read. A typical process filling 4000 pipes with 1 MB of data will use 4 GB of memory. On small systems it may be tricky to set the pipe max size to prevent this from happening. This patch makes it possible to enforce a per-user soft limit above which new pipes will be limited to a single page, effectively limiting them to 4 kB each, as well as a hard limit above which no new pipes may be created for this user. This has the effect of protecting the system against memory abuse without hurting other users, and still allowing pipes to work correctly though with less data at once. The limit are controlled by two new sysctls : pipe-user-pages-soft, and pipe-user-pages-hard. Both may be disabled by setting them to zero. The default soft limit allows the default number of FDs per process (1024) to create pipes of the default size (64kB), thus reaching a limit of 64MB before starting to create only smaller pipes. With 256 processes limited to 1024 FDs each, this results in 1024*64kB + (256*1024 - 1024) * 4kB = 1084 MB of memory allocated for a user. The hard limit is disabled by default to avoid breaking existing applications that make intensive use of pipes (eg: for splicing).

mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.

And it's constant source of confusion on whether PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case, especially on the border between fs and mm. Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much breakage to be doable. Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are not. The changes are pretty straight-forward: - <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN}; - page_cache_get() -> get_page(); - page_cache_release() -> put_page(); This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files. I've called spatch for them manually. The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later. There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll fix them manually in a separate patch.

pipe: use exclusive waits when reading or writing This makes the pipe code use separate wait-queues and exclusive waiting for readers and writers, avoiding a nasty thundering herd problem when there are lots of readers waiting for data on a pipe (or, less commonly, lots of writers waiting for a pipe to have space). While this isn't a common occurrence in the traditional "use a pipe as a data transport" case, where you typically only have a single reader and a single writer process, there is one common special case: using a pipe as a source of "locking tokens" rather than for data communication. In particular, the GNU make jobserver code ends up using a pipe as a way to limit parallelism, where each job consumes a token by reading a byte from the jobserver pipe, and releases the token by writing a byte back to the pipe. This pattern is fairly traditional on Unix, and works very well, but will waste a lot of time waking up a lot of processes when only a single reader needs to be woken up when a writer releases a new token. A simplified test-case of just this pipe interaction is to create 64 processes, and then pass a single token around between them (this test-case also intentionally passes another token that gets ignored to test the "wake up next" logic too, in case anybody wonders about it): #include <unistd.h> int main(int argc, char **argv) { int fd[2], counters[2]; pipe(fd); counters[0] = 0; counters[1] = -1; write(fd[1], counters, sizeof(counters)); /* 64 processes */ fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); do { int i; read(fd[0], &i, sizeof(i)); if (i < 0) continue; counters[0] = i+1; write(fd[1], counters, (1+(i & 1)) *sizeof(int)); } while (counters[0] < 1000000); return 0; } and in a perfect world, passing that token around should only cause one context switch per transfer, when the writer of a token causes a directed wakeup of just a single reader. But with the "writer wakes all readers" model we traditionally had, on my test box the above case causes more than an order of magnitude more scheduling: instead of the expected ~1M context switches, "perf stat" shows 231,852.37 msec task-clock # 15.857 CPUs utilized 11,250,961 context-switches # 0.049 M/sec 616,304 cpu-migrations # 0.003 M/sec 1,648 page-faults # 0.007 K/sec 1,097,903,998,514 cycles # 4.735 GHz 120,781,778,352 instructions # 0.11 insn per cycle 27,997,056,043 branches # 120.754 M/sec 283,581,233 branch-misses # 1.01% of all branches 14.621273891 seconds time elapsed 0.018243000 seconds user 3.611468000 seconds sys before this commit.

pipes: add a "packetized pipe" mode for writing The actual internal pipe implementation is already really about individual packets (called "pipe buffers"), and this simply exposes that as a special packetized mode. When we are in the packetized mode (marked by O_DIRECT as suggested by Alan Cox), a write() on a pipe will not merge the new data with previous writes, so each write will get a pipe buffer of its own. The pipe buffer is then marked with the PIPE_BUF_FLAG_PACKET flag, which in turn will tell the reader side to break the read at that boundary (and throw away any partial packet contents that do not fit in the read buffer). End result: as long as you do writes less than PIPE_BUF in size (so that the pipe doesn't have to split them up), you can now treat the pipe as a packet interface, where each read() system call will read one packet at a time. You can just use a sufficiently big read buffer (PIPE_BUF is sufficient, since bigger than that doesn't guarantee atomicity anyway), and the return value of the read() will naturally give you the size of the packet. NOTE! We do not support zero-sized packets, and zero-sized reads and writes to a pipe continue to be no-ops. Also note that big packets will currently be split at write time, but that the size at which that happens is not really specified (except that it's bigger than PIPE_BUF). Currently that limit is the system page size, but we might want to explicitly support bigger packets some day. The main user for this is going to be the autofs packet interface, allowing us to stop having to care so deeply about exact packet sizes (which have had bugs with 32/64-bit compatibility modes). But user space can create packetized pipes with "pipe2(fd, O_DIRECT)", which will fail with an EINVAL on kernels that do not support this interface.

pipe: use exclusive waits when reading or writing This makes the pipe code use separate wait-queues and exclusive waiting for readers and writers, avoiding a nasty thundering herd problem when there are lots of readers waiting for data on a pipe (or, less commonly, lots of writers waiting for a pipe to have space). While this isn't a common occurrence in the traditional "use a pipe as a data transport" case, where you typically only have a single reader and a single writer process, there is one common special case: using a pipe as a source of "locking tokens" rather than for data communication. In particular, the GNU make jobserver code ends up using a pipe as a way to limit parallelism, where each job consumes a token by reading a byte from the jobserver pipe, and releases the token by writing a byte back to the pipe.

pipe: use exclusive waits when reading or writing This makes the pipe code use separate wait-queues and exclusive waiting for readers and writers, avoiding a nasty thundering herd problem when there are lots of readers waiting for data on a pipe (or, less commonly, lots of writers waiting for a pipe to have space). While this isn't a common occurrence in the traditional "use a pipe as a data transport" case, where you typically only have a single reader and a single writer process, there is one common special case: using a pipe as a source of "locking tokens" rather than for data communication. In particular, the GNU make jobserver code ends up using a pipe as a way to limit parallelism, where each job consumes a token by reading a byte from the jobserver pipe, and releases the token by writing a byte back to the pipe. This pattern is fairly traditional on Unix, and works very well, but will waste a lot of time waking up a lot of processes when only a single reader needs to be woken up when a writer releases a new token. A simplified test-case of just this pipe interaction is to create 64 processes, and then pass a single token around between them (this test-case also intentionally passes another token that gets ignored to test the "wake up next" logic too, in case anybody wonders about it): #include <unistd.h> int main(int argc, char **argv) { int fd[2], counters[2]; pipe(fd); counters[0] = 0; counters[1] = -1; write(fd[1], counters, sizeof(counters)); /* 64 processes */ fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); do { int i; read(fd[0], &i, sizeof(i)); if (i < 0) continue; counters[0] = i+1; write(fd[1], counters, (1+(i & 1)) *sizeof(int)); } while (counters[0] < 1000000); return 0; } and in a perfect world, passing that token around should only cause one context switch per transfer, when the writer of a token causes a directed wakeup of just a single reader.

pipes: add a "packetized pipe" mode for writing The actual internal pipe implementation is already really about individual packets (called "pipe buffers"), and this simply exposes that as a special packetized mode. When we are in the packetized mode (marked by O_DIRECT as suggested by Alan Cox), a write() on a pipe will not merge the new data with previous writes, so each write will get a pipe buffer of its own. The pipe buffer is then marked with the PIPE_BUF_FLAG_PACKET flag, which in turn will tell the reader side to break the read at that boundary (and throw away any partial packet contents that do not fit in the read buffer). End result: as long as you do writes less than PIPE_BUF in size (so that the pipe doesn't have to split them up), you can now treat the pipe as a packet interface, where each read() system call will read one packet at a time. You can just use a sufficiently big read buffer (PIPE_BUF is sufficient, since bigger than that doesn't guarantee atomicity anyway), and the return value of the read() will naturally give you the size of the packet. NOTE! We do not support zero-sized packets, and zero-sized reads and writes to a pipe continue to be no-ops. Also note that big packets will currently be split at write time, but that the size at which that happens is not really specified (except that it's bigger than PIPE_BUF). Currently that limit is the system page size, but we might want to explicitly support bigger packets some day. The main user for this is going to be the autofs packet interface, allowing us to stop having to care so deeply about exact packet sizes (which have had bugs with 32/64-bit compatibility modes). But user space can create packetized pipes with "pipe2(fd, O_DIRECT)", which will fail with an EINVAL on kernels that do not support this interface.

In particular, the pipe rework caused the kernel build to inexplicably slow down. The reason turns out to be that the GNU make jobserver (which limits the parallelism of the build) uses a pipe to implement a "token" system: a parallel submake will read a character from the pipe to get the job token before starting a new job, and will write a character back to the pipe when it is done. The overall job limit is thus easily controlled by just writing the appropriate number of initial token characters into the pipe. But to work well, that really means that the old behavior of write wakeups being synchronous (WF_SYNC) is very important - when the pipe writer wakes up a reader, we want the reader to actually get scheduled immediately. Otherwise you lose the parallelism of the build. The pipe rework lost that synchronous wakeup on write, and we had clearly all forgotten the reasons and rules for it. This rewrites the pipe write wakeup logic to do the required Wsync wakeups, but also clarifies the logic and avoids extraneous wakeups. It also ends up addign a number of comments about what oit does and why, so that we hopefully don't end up forgetting about this next time we change this code.

pipe: use exclusive waits when reading or writing This makes the pipe code use separate wait-queues and exclusive waiting for readers and writers, avoiding a nasty thundering herd problem when there are lots of readers waiting for data on a pipe (or, less commonly, lots of writers waiting for a pipe to have space). While this isn't a common occurrence in the traditional "use a pipe as a data transport" case, where you typically only have a single reader and a single writer process, there is one common special case: using a pipe as a source of "locking tokens" rather than for data communication. In particular, the GNU make jobserver code ends up using a pipe as a way to limit parallelism, where each job consumes a token by reading a byte from the jobserver pipe, and releases the token by writing a byte back to the pipe. This pattern is fairly traditional on Unix, and works very well, but will waste a lot of time waking up a lot of processes when only a single reader needs to be woken up when a writer releases a new token. A simplified test-case of just this pipe interaction is to create 64 processes, and then pass a single token around between them (this test-case also intentionally passes another token that gets ignored to test the "wake up next" logic too, in case anybody wonders about it): #include <unistd.h> int main(int argc, char **argv) { int fd[2], counters[2]; pipe(fd); counters[0] = 0; counters[1] = -1; write(fd[1], counters, sizeof(counters)); /* 64 processes */ fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); do { int i; read(fd[0], &i, sizeof(i)); if (i < 0) continue; counters[0] = i+1; write(fd[1], counters, (1+(i & 1)) *sizeof(int)); } while (counters[0] < 1000000); return 0; } and in a perfect world, passing that token around should only cause one context switch per transfer, when the writer of a token causes a directed wakeup of just a single reader. But with the "writer wakes all readers" model we traditionally had, on my test box the above case causes more than an order of magnitude more scheduling: instead of the expected ~1M context switches, "perf stat" shows 231,852.37 msec task-clock # 15.857 CPUs utilized 11,250,961 context-switches # 0.049 M/sec 616,304 cpu-migrations # 0.003 M/sec 1,648 page-faults # 0.007 K/sec 1,097,903,998,514 cycles # 4.735 GHz 120,781,778,352 instructions # 0.11 insn per cycle 27,997,056,043 branches # 120.754 M/sec 283,581,233 branch-misses # 1.01% of all branches 14.621273891 seconds time elapsed 0.018243000 seconds user 3.611468000 seconds sys before this commit.

pipe: Add general notification queue support Make it possible to have a general notification queue built on top of a standard pipe. Notifications are 'spliced' into the pipe and then read out. splice(), vmsplice() and sendfile() are forbidden on pipes used for notifications as post_one_notification() cannot take pipe->mutex. This means that notifications could be posted in between individual pipe buffers, making iov_iter_revert() difficult to effect. The way the notification queue is used is: (1) An application opens a pipe with a special flag and indicates the number of messages it wishes to be able to queue at once (this can only be set once): pipe2(fds, O_NOTIFICATION_PIPE); ioctl(fds[0], IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_SIZE, queue_depth); (2) The application then uses poll() and read() as normal to extract data from the pipe. read() will return multiple notifications if the buffer is big enough, but it will not split a notification across buffers - rather it will return a short read or EMSGSIZE. Notification messages include a length in the header so that the caller can split them up. Each message has a header that describes it: struct watch_notification { __u32 type:24; __u32 subtype:8; __u32 info; }; The type indicates the source (eg. mount tree changes, superblock events, keyring changes, block layer events) and the subtype indicates the event type (eg. mount, unmount; EIO, EDQUOT; link, unlink). The info field indicates a number of things, including the entry length, an ID assigned to a watchpoint contributing to this buffer and type-specific flags. Supplementary data, such as the key ID that generated an event, can be attached in additional slots. The maximum message size is 127 bytes. Messages may not be padded or aligned, so there is no guarantee, for example, that the notification type will be on a 4-byte bounary. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

pipe: account to kmemcg Pipes can consume a significant amount of system memory, hence they should be accounted to kmemcg. This patch marks pipe_inode_info and anonymous pipe buffer page allocations as __GFP_ACCOUNT so that they would be charged to kmemcg. Note, since a pipe buffer page can be "stolen" and get reused for other purposes, including mapping to userspace, we clear PageKmemcg thus resetting page->_mapcount and uncharge it in anon_pipe_buf_steal, which is introduced by this patch. A note regarding anon_pipe_buf_steal implementation. We allow to steal the page if its ref count equals 1. It looks racy, but it is correct for anonymous pipe buffer pages, because: - We lock out all other pipe users, because ->steal is called with pipe_lock held, so the page can't be spliced to another pipe from under us. - The page is not on LRU and it never was. - Thus a parallel thread can access it only by PFN. Although this is quite possible (e.g. see page_idle_get_page and balloon_page_isolate) this is not dangerous, because all such functions do is increase page ref count, check if the page is the one they are looking for, and decrease ref count if it isn't. Since our page is clean except for PageKmemcg mark, which doesn't conflict with other _mapcount users, the worst that can happen is we see page_count > 2 due to a transient ref, in which case we false-positively abort ->steal, which is still fine, because ->steal is not guaranteed to succeed.

While this isn't a common occurrence in the traditional "use a pipe as a data transport" case, where you typically only have a single reader and a single writer process, there is one common special case: using a pipe as a source of "locking tokens" rather than for data communication. In particular, the GNU make jobserver code ends up using a pipe as a way to limit parallelism, where each job consumes a token by reading a byte from the jobserver pipe, and releases the token by writing a byte back to the pipe. This pattern is fairly traditional on Unix, and works very well, but will waste a lot of time waking up a lot of processes when only a single reader needs to be woken up when a writer releases a new token. A simplified test-case of just this pipe interaction is to create 64 processes, and then pass a single token around between them (this test-case also intentionally passes another token that gets ignored to test the "wake up next" logic too, in case anybody wonders about it): #include <unistd.h> int main(int argc, char **argv) { int fd[2], counters[2]; pipe(fd); counters[0] = 0; counters[1] = -1; write(fd[1], counters, sizeof(counters)); /* 64 processes */ fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); do { int i; read(fd[0], &i, sizeof(i)); if (i < 0) continue; counters[0] = i+1; write(fd[1], counters, (1+(i & 1)) *sizeof(int)); } while (counters[0] < 1000000); return 0; } and in a perfect world, passing that token around should only cause one context switch per transfer, when the writer of a token causes a directed wakeup of just a single reader. But with the "writer wakes all readers" model we traditionally had, on my test box the above case causes more than an order of magnitude more scheduling: instead of the expected ~1M context switches, "perf stat" shows 231,852.37 msec task-clock # 15.857 CPUs utilized 11,250,961 context-switches # 0.049 M/sec 616,304 cpu-migrations # 0.003 M/sec 1,648 page-faults # 0.007 K/sec 1,097,903,998,514 cycles # 4.735 GHz 120,781,778,352 instructions # 0.11 insn per cycle 27,997,056,043 branches # 120.754 M/sec 283,581,233 branch-misses # 1.01% of all branches 14.621273891 seconds time elapsed 0.018243000 seconds user 3.611468000 seconds sys before this commit.

pipes: add a "packetized pipe" mode for writing The actual internal pipe implementation is already really about individual packets (called "pipe buffers"), and this simply exposes that as a special packetized mode. When we are in the packetized mode (marked by O_DIRECT as suggested by Alan Cox), a write() on a pipe will not merge the new data with previous writes, so each write will get a pipe buffer of its own. The pipe buffer is then marked with the PIPE_BUF_FLAG_PACKET flag, which in turn will tell the reader side to break the read at that boundary (and throw away any partial packet contents that do not fit in the read buffer). End result: as long as you do writes less than PIPE_BUF in size (so that the pipe doesn't have to split them up), you can now treat the pipe as a packet interface, where each read() system call will read one packet at a time. You can just use a sufficiently big read buffer (PIPE_BUF is sufficient, since bigger than that doesn't guarantee atomicity anyway), and the return value of the read() will naturally give you the size of the packet. NOTE! We do not support zero-sized packets, and zero-sized reads and writes to a pipe continue to be no-ops. Also note that big packets will currently be split at write time, but that the size at which that happens is not really specified (except that it's bigger than PIPE_BUF). Currently that limit is the system page size, but we might want to explicitly support bigger packets some day. The main user for this is going to be the autofs packet interface, allowing us to stop having to care so deeply about exact packet sizes (which have had bugs with 32/64-bit compatibility modes). But user space can create packetized pipes with "pipe2(fd, O_DIRECT)", which will fail with an EINVAL on kernels that do not support this interface.

pipe: fix and clarify pipe write wakeup logic The pipe rework ends up having been extra painful, partly becaused of actual bugs with ordering and caching of the pipe state, but also because of subtle performance issues. In particular, the pipe rework caused the kernel build to inexplicably slow down. The reason turns out to be that the GNU make jobserver (which limits the parallelism of the build) uses a pipe to implement a "token" system: a parallel submake will read a character from the pipe to get the job token before starting a new job, and will write a character back to the pipe when it is done. The overall job limit is thus easily controlled by just writing the appropriate number of initial token characters into the pipe. But to work well, that really means that the old behavior of write wakeups being synchronous (WF_SYNC) is very important - when the pipe writer wakes up a reader, we want the reader to actually get scheduled immediately. Otherwise you lose the parallelism of the build. The pipe rework lost that synchronous wakeup on write, and we had clearly all forgotten the reasons and rules for it. This rewrites the pipe write wakeup logic to do the required Wsync wakeups, but also clarifies the logic and avoids extraneous wakeups. It also ends up addign a number of comments about what oit does and why, so that we hopefully don't end up forgetting about this next time we change this code.

pipe: use exclusive waits when reading or writing This makes the pipe code use separate wait-queues and exclusive waiting for readers and writers, avoiding a nasty thundering herd problem when there are lots of readers waiting for data on a pipe (or, less commonly, lots of writers waiting for a pipe to have space). While this isn't a common occurrence in the traditional "use a pipe as a data transport" case, where you typically only have a single reader and a single writer process, there is one common special case: using a pipe as a source of "locking tokens" rather than for data communication. In particular, the GNU make jobserver code ends up using a pipe as a way to limit parallelism, where each job consumes a token by reading a byte from the jobserver pipe, and releases the token by writing a byte back to the pipe. This pattern is fairly traditional on Unix, and works very well, but will waste a lot of time waking up a lot of processes when only a single reader needs to be woken up when a writer releases a new token. A simplified test-case of just this pipe interaction is to create 64 processes, and then pass a single token around between them (this test-case also intentionally passes another token that gets ignored to test the "wake up next" logic too, in case anybody wonders about it): #include <unistd.h> int main(int argc, char **argv) { int fd[2], counters[2]; pipe(fd); counters[0] = 0; counters[1] = -1; write(fd[1], counters, sizeof(counters)); /* 64 processes */ fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); do { int i; read(fd[0], &i, sizeof(i)); if (i < 0) continue; counters[0] = i+1; write(fd[1], counters, (1+(i & 1)) *sizeof(int)); } while (counters[0] < 1000000); return 0; } and in a perfect world, passing that token around should only cause one context switch per transfer, when the writer of a token causes a directed wakeup of just a single reader. But with the "writer wakes all readers" model we traditionally had, on my test box the above case causes more than an order of magnitude more scheduling: instead of the expected ~1M context switches, "perf stat" shows 231,852.37 msec task-clock # 15.857 CPUs utilized 11,250,961 context-switches # 0.049 M/sec 616,304 cpu-migrations # 0.003 M/sec 1,648 page-faults # 0.007 K/sec 1,097,903,998,514 cycles # 4.735 GHz 120,781,778,352 instructions # 0.11 insn per cycle 27,997,056,043 branches # 120.754 M/sec 283,581,233 branch-misses # 1.01% of all branches 14.621273891 seconds time elapsed 0.018243000 seconds user 3.611468000 seconds sys before this commit.

pipe: fix and clarify pipe write wakeup logic The pipe rework ends up having been extra painful, partly becaused of actual bugs with ordering and caching of the pipe state, but also because of subtle performance issues. In particular, the pipe rework caused the kernel build to inexplicably slow down. The reason turns out to be that the GNU make jobserver (which limits the parallelism of the build) uses a pipe to implement a "token" system: a parallel submake will read a character from the pipe to get the job token before starting a new job, and will write a character back to the pipe when it is done. The overall job limit is thus easily controlled by just writing the appropriate number of initial token characters into the pipe. But to work well, that really means that the old behavior of write wakeups being synchronous (WF_SYNC) is very important - when the pipe writer wakes up a reader, we want the reader to actually get scheduled immediately. Otherwise you lose the parallelism of the build. The pipe rework lost that synchronous wakeup on write, and we had clearly all forgotten the reasons and rules for it. This rewrites the pipe write wakeup logic to do the required Wsync wakeups, but also clarifies the logic and avoids extraneous wakeups. It also ends up addign a number of comments about what oit does and why, so that we hopefully don't end up forgetting about this next time we change this code.

Notifications are 'spliced' into the pipe and then read out. splice(), vmsplice() and sendfile() are forbidden on pipes used for notifications as post_one_notification() cannot take pipe->mutex. This means that notifications could be posted in between individual pipe buffers, making iov_iter_revert() difficult to effect. The way the notification queue is used is: (1) An application opens a pipe with a special flag and indicates the number of messages it wishes to be able to queue at once (this can only be set once): pipe2(fds, O_NOTIFICATION_PIPE); ioctl(fds[0], IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_SIZE, queue_depth); (2) The application then uses poll() and read() as normal to extract data from the pipe. read() will return multiple notifications if the buffer is big enough, but it will not split a notification across buffers - rather it will return a short read or EMSGSIZE. Notification messages include a length in the header so that the caller can split them up. Each message has a header that describes it: struct watch_notification { __u32 type:24; __u32 subtype:8; __u32 info; }; The type indicates the source (eg. mount tree changes, superblock events, keyring changes, block layer events) and the subtype indicates the event type (eg. mount, unmount; EIO, EDQUOT; link, unlink). The info field indicates a number of things, including the entry length, an ID assigned to a watchpoint contributing to this buffer and type-specific flags. Supplementary data, such as the key ID that generated an event, can be attached in additional slots. The maximum message size is 127 bytes. Messages may not be padded or aligned, so there is no guarantee, for example, that the notification type will be on a 4-byte bounary. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

pipe: Add general notification queue support Make it possible to have a general notification queue built on top of a standard pipe. Notifications are 'spliced' into the pipe and then read out. splice(), vmsplice() and sendfile() are forbidden on pipes used for notifications as post_one_notification() cannot take pipe->mutex. This means that notifications could be posted in between individual pipe buffers, making iov_iter_revert() difficult to effect. The way the notification queue is used is: (1) An application opens a pipe with a special flag and indicates the number of messages it wishes to be able to queue at once (this can only be set once): pipe2(fds, O_NOTIFICATION_PIPE); ioctl(fds[0], IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_SIZE, queue_depth); (2) The application then uses poll() and read() as normal to extract data from the pipe. read() will return multiple notifications if the buffer is big enough, but it will not split a notification across buffers - rather it will return a short read or EMSGSIZE. Notification messages include a length in the header so that the caller can split them up. Each message has a header that describes it: struct watch_notification { __u32 type:24; __u32 subtype:8; __u32 info; }; The type indicates the source (eg. mount tree changes, superblock events, keyring changes, block layer events) and the subtype indicates the event type (eg. mount, unmount; EIO, EDQUOT; link, unlink). The info field indicates a number of things, including the entry length, an ID assigned to a watchpoint contributing to this buffer and type-specific flags. Supplementary data, such as the key ID that generated an event, can be attached in additional slots. The maximum message size is 127 bytes.

pipe: use exclusive waits when reading or writing This makes the pipe code use separate wait-queues and exclusive waiting for readers and writers, avoiding a nasty thundering herd problem when there are lots of readers waiting for data on a pipe (or, less commonly, lots of writers waiting for a pipe to have space). While this isn't a common occurrence in the traditional "use a pipe as a data transport" case, where you typically only have a single reader and a single writer process, there is one common special case: using a pipe as a source of "locking tokens" rather than for data communication. In particular, the GNU make jobserver code ends up using a pipe as a way to limit parallelism, where each job consumes a token by reading a byte from the jobserver pipe, and releases the token by writing a byte back to the pipe. This pattern is fairly traditional on Unix, and works very well, but will waste a lot of time waking up a lot of processes when only a single reader needs to be woken up when a writer releases a new token. A simplified test-case of just this pipe interaction is to create 64 processes, and then pass a single token around between them (this test-case also intentionally passes another token that gets ignored to test the "wake up next" logic too, in case anybody wonders about it): #include <unistd.h> int main(int argc, char **argv) { int fd[2], counters[2]; pipe(fd); counters[0] = 0; counters[1] = -1; write(fd[1], counters, sizeof(counters)); /* 64 processes */ fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); do { int i; read(fd[0], &i, sizeof(i)); if (i < 0) continue; counters[0] = i+1; write(fd[1], counters, (1+(i & 1)) *sizeof(int)); } while (counters[0] < 1000000); return 0; } and in a perfect world, passing that token around should only cause one context switch per transfer, when the writer of a token causes a directed wakeup of just a single reader. But with the "writer wakes all readers" model we traditionally had, on my test box the above case causes more than an order of magnitude more scheduling: instead of the expected ~1M context switches, "perf stat" shows 231,852.37 msec task-clock # 15.857 CPUs utilized 11,250,961 context-switches # 0.049 M/sec 616,304 cpu-migrations # 0.003 M/sec 1,648 page-faults # 0.007 K/sec 1,097,903,998,514 cycles # 4.735 GHz 120,781,778,352 instructions # 0.11 insn per cycle 27,997,056,043 branches # 120.754 M/sec 283,581,233 branch-misses # 1.01% of all branches 14.621273891 seconds time elapsed 0.018243000 seconds user 3.611468000 seconds sys before this commit.

vfs: fix subtle use-after-free of pipe_inode_info The pipe code was trying (and failing) to be very careful about freeing the pipe info only after the last access, with a pattern like: spin_lock(&inode->i_lock); if (!--pipe->files) { inode->i_pipe = NULL; kill = 1; } spin_unlock(&inode->i_lock); __pipe_unlock(pipe); if (kill) free_pipe_info(pipe); where the final freeing is done last. HOWEVER. The above is actually broken, because while the freeing is done at the end, if we have two racing processes releasing the pipe inode info, the one that *doesn't* free it will decrement the ->files count, and unlock the inode i_lock, but then still use the "pipe_inode_info" afterwards when it does the "__pipe_unlock(pipe)". This is *very* hard to trigger in practice, since the race window is very small, and adding debug options seems to just hide it by slowing things down. Simon originally reported this way back in July as an Oops in kmem_cache_allocate due to a single bit corruption (due to the final "spin_unlock(pipe->mutex.wait_lock)" incrementing a field in a different allocation that had re-used the free'd pipe-info), it's taken this long to figure out. Since the 'pipe->files' accesses aren't even protected by the pipe lock (we very much use the inode lock for that), the simple solution is to just drop the pipe lock early.

pipe: make sure to wake up everybody when the last reader/writer closes Andrei Vagin reported that commit 0ddad21d3e99 ("pipe: use exclusive waits when reading or writing") broke one of the CRIU tests. He even has a trivial reproducer: #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/wait.h> int main() { int p[2]; pid_t p1, p2; int status; if (pipe(p) == -1) return 1; p1 = fork(); if (p1 == 0) { close(p[1]); read(p[0], &status, sizeof(status)); return 0; } p2 = fork(); if (p2 == 0) { close(p[1]); read(p[0], &status, sizeof(status)); return 0; } sleep(1); close(p[1]); wait(&status); wait(&status); return 0; } and the problem - once he points it out - is obvious. We use these nice exclusive waits, but when the last writer goes away, it then needs to wake up _every_ reader (and conversely, the last reader disappearing needs to wake every writer, of course). In fact, when going through this, we had several small oddities around how to wake things. We did in fact wake every reader when we changed the size of the pipe buffers. But that's entirely pointless, since that just acts as a possible source of new space - no new data to read. And when we change the size of the buffer, we don't need to wake all writers even when we add space - that case acts just as if somebody made space by reading, and any writer that finds itself not filling it up entirely will wake the next one. On the other hand, on the exit path, we tried to limit the wakeups with the proper poll keys etc, which is entirely pointless, because at that point we obviously need to wake up everybody. So don't do that: just wake up everybody - but only do that if the counts changed to zero. So fix those non-IO wakeups to be more proper: space change doesn't add any new data, but it might make room for writers, so it wakes up a writer. And the actual changes to reader/writer counts should wake up everybody, since everybody is affected (ie readers will all see EOF if the writers have gone away, and writers will all get EPIPE if all readers have gone away).

pipe: limit the per-user amount of pages allocated in pipes On no-so-small systems, it is possible for a single process to cause an OOM condition by filling large pipes with data that are never read. A typical process filling 4000 pipes with 1 MB of data will use 4 GB of memory. On small systems it may be tricky to set the pipe max size to prevent this from happening. This patch makes it possible to enforce a per-user soft limit above which new pipes will be limited to a single page, effectively limiting them to 4 kB each, as well as a hard limit above which no new pipes may be created for this user. This has the effect of protecting the system against memory abuse without hurting other users, and still allowing pipes to work correctly though with less data at once. The limit are controlled by two new sysctls : pipe-user-pages-soft, and pipe-user-pages-hard. Both may be disabled by setting them to zero. The default soft limit allows the default number of FDs per process (1024) to create pipes of the default size (64kB), thus reaching a limit of 64MB before starting to create only smaller pipes. With 256 processes limited to 1024 FDs each, this results in 1024*64kB + (256*1024 - 1024) * 4kB = 1084 MB of memory allocated for a user. The hard limit is disabled by default to avoid breaking existing applications that make intensive use of pipes (eg: for splicing).

pipe: Add general notification queue support Make it possible to have a general notification queue built on top of a standard pipe. Notifications are 'spliced' into the pipe and then read out. splice(), vmsplice() and sendfile() are forbidden on pipes used for notifications as post_one_notification() cannot take pipe->mutex. This means that notifications could be posted in between individual pipe buffers, making iov_iter_revert() difficult to effect. The way the notification queue is used is: (1) An application opens a pipe with a special flag and indicates the number of messages it wishes to be able to queue at once (this can only be set once): pipe2(fds, O_NOTIFICATION_PIPE); ioctl(fds[0], IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_SIZE, queue_depth); (2) The application then uses poll() and read() as normal to extract data from the pipe. read() will return multiple notifications if the buffer is big enough, but it will not split a notification across buffers - rather it will return a short read or EMSGSIZE. Notification messages include a length in the header so that the caller can split them up. Each message has a header that describes it: struct watch_notification { __u32 type:24; __u32 subtype:8; __u32 info; }; The type indicates the source (eg. mount tree changes, superblock events, keyring changes, block layer events) and the subtype indicates the event type (eg. mount, unmount; EIO, EDQUOT; link, unlink). The info field indicates a number of things, including the entry length, an ID assigned to a watchpoint contributing to this buffer and type-specific flags. Supplementary data, such as the key ID that generated an event, can be attached in additional slots. The maximum message size is 127 bytes. Messages may not be padded or aligned, so there is no guarantee, for example, that the notification type will be on a 4-byte bounary. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

pipe: account to kmemcg Pipes can consume a significant amount of system memory, hence they should be accounted to kmemcg. This patch marks pipe_inode_info and anonymous pipe buffer page allocations as __GFP_ACCOUNT so that they would be charged to kmemcg. Note, since a pipe buffer page can be "stolen" and get reused for other purposes, including mapping to userspace, we clear PageKmemcg thus resetting page->_mapcount and uncharge it in anon_pipe_buf_steal, which is introduced by this patch. A note regarding anon_pipe_buf_steal implementation. We allow to steal the page if its ref count equals 1. It looks racy, but it is correct for anonymous pipe buffer pages, because: - We lock out all other pipe users, because ->steal is called with pipe_lock held, so the page can't be spliced to another pipe from under us. - The page is not on LRU and it never was. - Thus a parallel thread can access it only by PFN. Although this is quite possible (e.g. see page_idle_get_page and balloon_page_isolate) this is not dangerous, because all such functions do is increase page ref count, check if the page is the one they are looking for, and decrease ref count if it isn't. Since our page is clean except for PageKmemcg mark, which doesn't conflict with other _mapcount users, the worst that can happen is we see page_count > 2 due to a transient ref, in which case we false-positively abort ->steal, which is still fine, because ->steal is not guaranteed to succeed.

pipe: cap initial pipe capacity according to pipe-max-size limit This is a patch that provides behavior that is more consistent, and probably less surprising to users. I consider the change optional, and welcome opinions about whether it should be applied. By default, pipes are created with a capacity of 64 kiB. However, /proc/sys/fs/pipe-max-size may be set smaller than this value. In this scenario, an unprivileged user could thus create a pipe whose initial capacity exceeds the limit. Therefore, it seems logical to cap the initial pipe capacity according to the value of pipe-max-size. The test program shown earlier in this patch series can be used to demonstrate the effect of the change brought about with this patch: # cat /proc/sys/fs/pipe-max-size 1048576 # sudo -u mtk ./test_F_SETPIPE_SZ 1 Initial pipe capacity: 65536 # echo 10000 > /proc/sys/fs/pipe-max-size # cat /proc/sys/fs/pipe-max-size 16384 # sudo -u mtk ./test_F_SETPIPE_SZ 1 Initial pipe capacity: 16384 # ./test_F_SETPIPE_SZ 1 Initial pipe capacity: 65536 The last two executions of 'test_F_SETPIPE_SZ' show that pipe-max-size caps the initial allocation for a new pipe for unprivileged users, but not for privileged users.

pipe: fix limit checking in alloc_pipe_info() The limit checking in alloc_pipe_info() (used by pipe(2) and when opening a FIFO) has the following problems: (1) When checking capacity required for the new pipe, the checks against the limit in /proc/sys/fs/pipe-user-pages-{soft,hard} are made against existing consumption, and exclude the memory required for the new pipe capacity. As a consequence: (1) the memory allocation throttling provided by the soft limit does not kick in quite as early as it should, and (2) the user can overrun the hard limit. (2) As currently implemented, accounting and checking against the limits is done as follows: (a) Test whether the user has exceeded the limit. (b) Make new pipe buffer allocation. (c) Account new allocation against the limits. This is racey. Multiple processes may pass point (a) simultaneously, and then allocate pipe buffers that are accounted for only in step (c). The race means that the user's pipe buffer allocation could be pushed over the limit (by an arbitrary amount, depending on how unlucky we were in the race). [Thanks to Vegard Nossum for spotting this point, which I had missed.] This patch addresses the above problems as follows: * Alter the checks against limits to include the memory required for the new pipe. * Re-order the accounting step so that it precedes the buffer allocation. If the accounting step determines that a limit has been reached, revert the accounting and cause the operation to fail.

[Thanks to Vegard Nossum for spotting this point, which I had missed.] This patch addresses the above problems as follows: * Alter the checks against limits to include the memory required for the new pipe. * Re-order the accounting step so that it precedes the buffer allocation. If the accounting step determines that a limit has been reached, revert the accounting and cause the operation to fail.

pipe: use exclusive waits when reading or writing This makes the pipe code use separate wait-queues and exclusive waiting for readers and writers, avoiding a nasty thundering herd problem when there are lots of readers waiting for data on a pipe (or, less commonly, lots of writers waiting for a pipe to have space). While this isn't a common occurrence in the traditional "use a pipe as a data transport" case, where you typically only have a single reader and a single writer process, there is one common special case: using a pipe as a source of "locking tokens" rather than for data communication. In particular, the GNU make jobserver code ends up using a pipe as a way to limit parallelism, where each job consumes a token by reading a byte from the jobserver pipe, and releases the token by writing a byte back to the pipe. This pattern is fairly traditional on Unix, and works very well, but will waste a lot of time waking up a lot of processes when only a single reader needs to be woken up when a writer releases a new token. A simplified test-case of just this pipe interaction is to create 64 processes, and then pass a single token around between them (this test-case also intentionally passes another token that gets ignored to test the "wake up next" logic too, in case anybody wonders about it): #include <unistd.h> int main(int argc, char **argv) { int fd[2], counters[2]; pipe(fd); counters[0] = 0; counters[1] = -1; write(fd[1], counters, sizeof(counters)); /* 64 processes */ fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); do { int i; read(fd[0], &i, sizeof(i)); if (i < 0) continue; counters[0] = i+1; write(fd[1], counters, (1+(i & 1)) *sizeof(int)); } while (counters[0] < 1000000); return 0; } and in a perfect world, passing that token around should only cause one context switch per transfer, when the writer of a token causes a directed wakeup of just a single reader. But with the "writer wakes all readers" model we traditionally had, on my test box the above case causes more than an order of magnitude more scheduling: instead of the expected ~1M context switches, "perf stat" shows 231,852.37 msec task-clock # 15.857 CPUs utilized 11,250,961 context-switches # 0.049 M/sec 616,304 cpu-migrations # 0.003 M/sec 1,648 page-faults # 0.007 K/sec 1,097,903,998,514 cycles # 4.735 GHz 120,781,778,352 instructions # 0.11 insn per cycle 27,997,056,043 branches # 120.754 M/sec 283,581,233 branch-misses # 1.01% of all branches 14.621273891 seconds time elapsed 0.018243000 seconds user 3.611468000 seconds sys before this commit.

Much better. [ Note! This kernel improvement seems to be very good at triggering a race condition in the make jobserver (in GNU make 4.2.1) for me. It's a long known bug that was fixed back in June 2017 by GNU make commit b552b0525198 ("[SV 51159] Use a non-blocking read with pselect to avoid hangs."). But there wasn't a new release of GNU make until 4.3 on Jan 19 2020, so a number of distributions may still have the buggy version. Some have backported the fix to their 4.2.1 release, though, and even without the fix it's quite timing-dependent whether the bug actually is hit. ] Josh Triplett says: "I've been hammering on your pipe fix patch (switching to exclusive wait queues) for a month or so, on several different systems, and I've run into no issues with it. The patch *substantially* improves parallel build times on large (~100 CPU) systems, both with parallel make and with other things that use make's pipe-based jobserver. All current distributions (including stable and long-term stable distributions) have versions of GNU make that no longer have the jobserver bug" Tested-by: Josh Triplett <josh@joshtriplett.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

pipe: Add general notification queue support Make it possible to have a general notification queue built on top of a standard pipe. Notifications are 'spliced' into the pipe and then read out. splice(), vmsplice() and sendfile() are forbidden on pipes used for notifications as post_one_notification() cannot take pipe->mutex. This means that notifications could be posted in between individual pipe buffers, making iov_iter_revert() difficult to effect. The way the notification queue is used is: (1) An application opens a pipe with a special flag and indicates the number of messages it wishes to be able to queue at once (this can only be set once): pipe2(fds, O_NOTIFICATION_PIPE); ioctl(fds[0], IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_SIZE, queue_depth); (2) The application then uses poll() and read() as normal to extract data from the pipe. read() will return multiple notifications if the buffer is big enough, but it will not split a notification across buffers - rather it will return a short read or EMSGSIZE. Notification messages include a length in the header so that the caller can split them up. Each message has a header that describes it: struct watch_notification { __u32 type:24; __u32 subtype:8; __u32 info; }; The type indicates the source (eg. mount tree changes, superblock events, keyring changes, block layer events) and the subtype indicates the event type (eg. mount, unmount; EIO, EDQUOT; link, unlink). The info field indicates a number of things, including the entry length, an ID assigned to a watchpoint contributing to this buffer and type-specific flags. Supplementary data, such as the key ID that generated an event, can be attached in additional slots. The maximum message size is 127 bytes. Messages may not be padded or aligned, so there is no guarantee, for example, that the notification type will be on a 4-byte bounary. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

pipe: fix limit checking in alloc_pipe_info() The limit checking in alloc_pipe_info() (used by pipe(2) and when opening a FIFO) has the following problems: (1) When checking capacity required for the new pipe, the checks against the limit in /proc/sys/fs/pipe-user-pages-{soft,hard} are made against existing consumption, and exclude the memory required for the new pipe capacity. As a consequence: (1) the memory allocation throttling provided by the soft limit does not kick in quite as early as it should, and (2) the user can overrun the hard limit. (2) As currently implemented, accounting and checking against the limits is done as follows: (a) Test whether the user has exceeded the limit. (b) Make new pipe buffer allocation. (c) Account new allocation against the limits. This is racey. Multiple processes may pass point (a) simultaneously, and then allocate pipe buffers that are accounted for only in step (c). The race means that the user's pipe buffer allocation could be pushed over the limit (by an arbitrary amount, depending on how unlucky we were in the race).

pipe: limit the per-user amount of pages allocated in pipes On no-so-small systems, it is possible for a single process to cause an OOM condition by filling large pipes with data that are never read. A typical process filling 4000 pipes with 1 MB of data will use 4 GB of memory. On small systems it may be tricky to set the pipe max size to prevent this from happening. This patch makes it possible to enforce a per-user soft limit above which new pipes will be limited to a single page, effectively limiting them to 4 kB each, as well as a hard limit above which no new pipes may be created for this user. This has the effect of protecting the system against memory abuse without hurting other users, and still allowing pipes to work correctly though with less data at once. The limit are controlled by two new sysctls : pipe-user-pages-soft, and pipe-user-pages-hard. Both may be disabled by setting them to zero. The default soft limit allows the default number of FDs per process (1024) to create pipes of the default size (64kB), thus reaching a limit of 64MB before starting to create only smaller pipes. With 256 processes limited to 1024 FDs each, this results in 1024*64kB + (256*1024 - 1024) * 4kB = 1084 MB of memory allocated for a user. The hard limit is disabled by default to avoid breaking existing applications that make intensive use of pipes (eg: for splicing).

vfs: mark pipes and sockets as stream-like file descriptors In commit 3975b097e577 ("convert stream-like files -> stream_open, even if they use noop_llseek") Kirill used a coccinelle script to change "nonseekable_open()" to "stream_open()", which changed the trivial cases of stream-like file descriptors to the new model with FMODE_STREAM. However, the two big cases - sockets and pipes - don't actually have that trivial pattern at all, and were thus never converted to FMODE_STREAM even though it makes lots of sense to do so. That's particularly true when looking forward to the next change: getting rid of FMODE_ATOMIC_POS entirely, and just using FMODE_STREAM to decide whether f_pos updates are needed or not. And if they are, we'll always do them atomically. This came up because KCSAN (correctly) noted that the non-locked f_pos updates are data races: they are clearly benign for the case where we don't care, but it would be good to just not have that issue exist at all. Note that the reason we used FMODE_ATOMIC_POS originally is that only doing it for the minimal required case is "safer" in that it's possible that the f_pos locking can cause unnecessary serialization across the whole write() call. And in the worst case, that kind of serialization can cause deadlock issues: think writers that need readers to empty the state using the same file descriptor. [ Note that the locking is per-file descriptor - because it protects "f_pos", which is obviously per-file descriptor - so it only affects cases where you literally use the same file descriptor to both read and write. So a regular pipe that has separate reading and writing file descriptors doesn't really have this situation even though it's the obvious case of "reader empties what a bit writer concurrently fills" But we want to make pipes as being stream-line anyway, because we don't want the unnecessary overhead of locking, and because a named pipe can be (ab-)used by reading and writing to the same file descriptor. ] There are likely a lot of other cases that might want FMODE_STREAM, and looking for ".llseek = no_llseek" users and other cases that don't have an lseek file operation at all and making them use "stream_open()" might be a good idea. But pipes and sockets are likely to be the two main cases.

flag parameters: pipe This patch introduces the new syscall pipe2 which is like pipe but it also takes an additional parameter which takes a flag value. This patch implements the handling of O_CLOEXEC for the flag. I did not add support for the new syscall for the architectures which have a special sys_pipe implementation. I think the maintainers of those archs have the chance to go with the unified implementation but that's up to them. The implementation introduces do_pipe_flags.

pipe: remove pipe_wait() and fix wakeup race with splice The pipe splice code still used the old model of waiting for pipe IO by using a non-specific "pipe_wait()" that waited for any pipe event to happen, which depended on all pipe IO being entirely serialized by the pipe lock. So by checking the state you were waiting for, and then adding yourself to the wait queue before dropping the lock, you were guaranteed to see all the wakeups. Strictly speaking, the actual wakeups were not done under the lock, but the pipe_wait() model still worked, because since the waiter held the lock when checking whether it should sleep, it would always see the current state, and the wakeup was always done after updating the state. However, commit 0ddad21d3e99 ("pipe: use exclusive waits when reading or writing") split the single wait-queue into two, and in the process also made the "wait for event" code wait for _two_ wait queues, and that then showed a race with the wakers that were not serialized by the pipe lock. It's only splice that used that "pipe_wait()" model, so the problem wasn't obvious, but Josef Bacik reports: "I hit a hang with fstest btrfs/187, which does a btrfs send into /dev/null. This works by creating a pipe, the write side is given to the kernel to write into, and the read side is handed to a thread that splices into a file, in this case /dev/null. The box that was hung had the write side stuck here [pipe_write] and the read side stuck here [splice_from_pipe_next -> pipe_wait]. [ more details about pipe_wait() scenario ] The problem is we're doing the prepare_to_wait, which sets our state each time, however we can be woken up either with reads or writes. In the case above we race with the WRITER waking us up, and re-set our state to INTERRUPTIBLE, and thus never break out of schedule" Josef had a patch that avoided the issue in pipe_wait() by just making it set the state only once, but the deeper problem is that pipe_wait() depends on a level of synchonization by the pipe mutex that it really shouldn't. And the whole "wait for any pipe state change" model really isn't very good to begin with. So rather than trying to work around things in pipe_wait(), remove that legacy model of "wait for arbitrary pipe event" entirely, and actually create functions that wait for the pipe actually being readable or writable, and can do so without depending on the pipe lock serializing everything.

pipe: make sure to wake up everybody when the last reader/writer closes Andrei Vagin reported that commit 0ddad21d3e99 ("pipe: use exclusive waits when reading or writing") broke one of the CRIU tests. He even has a trivial reproducer: #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/wait.h> int main() { int p[2]; pid_t p1, p2; int status; if (pipe(p) == -1) return 1; p1 = fork(); if (p1 == 0) { close(p[1]); read(p[0], &status, sizeof(status)); return 0; } p2 = fork(); if (p2 == 0) { close(p[1]); read(p[0], &status, sizeof(status)); return 0; } sleep(1); close(p[1]); wait(&status); wait(&status); return 0; } and the problem - once he points it out - is obvious. We use these nice exclusive waits, but when the last writer goes away, it then needs to wake up _every_ reader (and conversely, the last reader disappearing needs to wake every writer, of course). In fact, when going through this, we had several small oddities around how to wake things. We did in fact wake every reader when we changed the size of the pipe buffers. But that's entirely pointless, since that just acts as a possible source of new space - no new data to read. And when we change the size of the buffer, we don't need to wake all writers even when we add space - that case acts just as if somebody made space by reading, and any writer that finds itself not filling it up entirely will wake the next one. On the other hand, on the exit path, we tried to limit the wakeups with the proper poll keys etc, which is entirely pointless, because at that point we obviously need to wake up everybody. So don't do that: just wake up everybody - but only do that if the counts changed to zero. So fix those non-IO wakeups to be more proper: space change doesn't add any new data, but it might make room for writers, so it wakes up a writer. And the actual changes to reader/writer counts should wake up everybody, since everybody is affected (ie readers will all see EOF if the writers have gone away, and writers will all get EPIPE if all readers have gone away).

vfs: mark pipes and sockets as stream-like file descriptors In commit 3975b097e577 ("convert stream-like files -> stream_open, even if they use noop_llseek") Kirill used a coccinelle script to change "nonseekable_open()" to "stream_open()", which changed the trivial cases of stream-like file descriptors to the new model with FMODE_STREAM. However, the two big cases - sockets and pipes - don't actually have that trivial pattern at all, and were thus never converted to FMODE_STREAM even though it makes lots of sense to do so. That's particularly true when looking forward to the next change: getting rid of FMODE_ATOMIC_POS entirely, and just using FMODE_STREAM to decide whether f_pos updates are needed or not. And if they are, we'll always do them atomically. This came up because KCSAN (correctly) noted that the non-locked f_pos updates are data races: they are clearly benign for the case where we don't care, but it would be good to just not have that issue exist at all. Note that the reason we used FMODE_ATOMIC_POS originally is that only doing it for the minimal required case is "safer" in that it's possible that the f_pos locking can cause unnecessary serialization across the whole write() call. And in the worst case, that kind of serialization can cause deadlock issues: think writers that need readers to empty the state using the same file descriptor. [ Note that the locking is per-file descriptor - because it protects "f_pos", which is obviously per-file descriptor - so it only affects cases where you literally use the same file descriptor to both read and write. So a regular pipe that has separate reading and writing file descriptors doesn't really have this situation even though it's the obvious case of "reader empties what a bit writer concurrently fills" But we want to make pipes as being stream-line anyway, because we don't want the unnecessary overhead of locking, and because a named pipe can be (ab-)used by reading and writing to the same file descriptor. ] There are likely a lot of other cases that might want FMODE_STREAM, and looking for ".llseek = no_llseek" users and other cases that don't have an lseek file operation at all and making them use "stream_open()" might be a good idea. But pipes and sockets are likely to be the two main cases.

pipe: use exclusive waits when reading or writing This makes the pipe code use separate wait-queues and exclusive waiting for readers and writers, avoiding a nasty thundering herd problem when there are lots of readers waiting for data on a pipe (or, less commonly, lots of writers waiting for a pipe to have space). While this isn't a common occurrence in the traditional "use a pipe as a data transport" case, where you typically only have a single reader and a single writer process, there is one common special case: using a pipe as a source of "locking tokens" rather than for data communication. In particular, the GNU make jobserver code ends up using a pipe as a way to limit parallelism, where each job consumes a token by reading a byte from the jobserver pipe, and releases the token by writing a byte back to the pipe. This pattern is fairly traditional on Unix, and works very well, but will waste a lot of time waking up a lot of processes when only a single reader needs to be woken up when a writer releases a new token. A simplified test-case of just this pipe interaction is to create 64 processes, and then pass a single token around between them (this test-case also intentionally passes another token that gets ignored to test the "wake up next" logic too, in case anybody wonders about it): #include <unistd.h> int main(int argc, char **argv) { int fd[2], counters[2]; pipe(fd); counters[0] = 0; counters[1] = -1; write(fd[1], counters, sizeof(counters)); /* 64 processes */ fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); do { int i; read(fd[0], &i, sizeof(i)); if (i < 0) continue; counters[0] = i+1; write(fd[1], counters, (1+(i & 1)) *sizeof(int)); } while (counters[0] < 1000000); return 0; } and in a perfect world, passing that token around should only cause one context switch per transfer, when the writer of a token causes a directed wakeup of just a single reader. But with the "writer wakes all readers" model we traditionally had, on my test box the above case causes more than an order of magnitude more scheduling: instead of the expected ~1M context switches, "perf stat" shows 231,852.37 msec task-clock # 15.857 CPUs utilized 11,250,961 context-switches # 0.049 M/sec 616,304 cpu-migrations # 0.003 M/sec 1,648 page-faults # 0.007 K/sec 1,097,903,998,514 cycles # 4.735 GHz 120,781,778,352 instructions # 0.11 insn per cycle 27,997,056,043 branches # 120.754 M/sec 283,581,233 branch-misses # 1.01% of all branches 14.621273891 seconds time elapsed 0.018243000 seconds user 3.611468000 seconds sys before this commit. After this commit, I get 5,229.55 msec task-clock # 3.072 CPUs utilized 1,212,233 context-switches # 0.232 M/sec 103,951 cpu-migrations # 0.020 M/sec 1,328 page-faults # 0.254 K/sec 21,307,456,166 cycles # 4.074 GHz 12,947,819,999 instructions # 0.61 insn per cycle 2,881,985,678 branches # 551.096 M/sec 64,267,015 branch-misses # 2.23% of all branches 1.702148350 seconds time elapsed 0.004868000 seconds user 0.110786000 seconds sys instead. Much better. [ Note! This kernel improvement seems to be very good at triggering a race condition in the make jobserver (in GNU make 4.2.1) for me. It's a long known bug that was fixed back in June 2017 by GNU make commit b552b0525198 ("[SV 51159] Use a non-blocking read with pselect to avoid hangs."). But there wasn't a new release of GNU make until 4.3 on Jan 19 2020, so a number of distributions may still have the buggy version. Some have backported the fix to their 4.2.1 release, though, and even without the fix it's quite timing-dependent whether the bug actually is hit. ] Josh Triplett says: "I've been hammering on your pipe fix patch (switching to exclusive wait queues) for a month or so, on several different systems, and I've run into no issues with it. The patch *substantially* improves parallel build times on large (~100 CPU) systems, both with parallel make and with other things that use make's pipe-based jobserver. All current distributions (including stable and long-term stable distributions) have versions of GNU make that no longer have the jobserver bug" Tested-by: Josh Triplett <josh@joshtriplett.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

pipe: make sure to wake up everybody when the last reader/writer closes Andrei Vagin reported that commit 0ddad21d3e99 ("pipe: use exclusive waits when reading or writing") broke one of the CRIU tests. He even has a trivial reproducer: #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/wait.h> int main() { int p[2]; pid_t p1, p2; int status; if (pipe(p) == -1) return 1; p1 = fork(); if (p1 == 0) { close(p[1]); read(p[0], &status, sizeof(status)); return 0; } p2 = fork(); if (p2 == 0) { close(p[1]); read(p[0], &status, sizeof(status)); return 0; } sleep(1); close(p[1]); wait(&status); wait(&status); return 0; } and the problem - once he points it out - is obvious. We use these nice exclusive waits, but when the last writer goes away, it then needs to wake up _every_ reader (and conversely, the last reader disappearing needs to wake every writer, of course). In fact, when going through this, we had several small oddities around how to wake things. We did in fact wake every reader when we changed the size of the pipe buffers. But that's entirely pointless, since that just acts as a possible source of new space - no new data to read. And when we change the size of the buffer, we don't need to wake all writers even when we add space - that case acts just as if somebody made space by reading, and any writer that finds itself not filling it up entirely will wake the next one. On the other hand, on the exit path, we tried to limit the wakeups with the proper poll keys etc, which is entirely pointless, because at that point we obviously need to wake up everybody. So don't do that: just wake up everybody - but only do that if the counts changed to zero. So fix those non-IO wakeups to be more proper: space change doesn't add any new data, but it might make room for writers, so it wakes up a writer. And the actual changes to reader/writer counts should wake up everybody, since everybody is affected (ie readers will all see EOF if the writers have gone away, and writers will all get EPIPE if all readers have gone away).

vfs: fix subtle use-after-free of pipe_inode_info The pipe code was trying (and failing) to be very careful about freeing the pipe info only after the last access, with a pattern like: spin_lock(&inode->i_lock); if (!--pipe->files) { inode->i_pipe = NULL; kill = 1; } spin_unlock(&inode->i_lock); __pipe_unlock(pipe); if (kill) free_pipe_info(pipe); where the final freeing is done last. HOWEVER. The above is actually broken, because while the freeing is done at the end, if we have two racing processes releasing the pipe inode info, the one that *doesn't* free it will decrement the ->files count, and unlock the inode i_lock, but then still use the "pipe_inode_info" afterwards when it does the "__pipe_unlock(pipe)". This is *very* hard to trigger in practice, since the race window is very small, and adding debug options seems to just hide it by slowing things down. Simon originally reported this way back in July as an Oops in kmem_cache_allocate due to a single bit corruption (due to the final "spin_unlock(pipe->mutex.wait_lock)" incrementing a field in a different allocation that had re-used the free'd pipe-info), it's taken this long to figure out. Since the 'pipe->files' accesses aren't even protected by the pipe lock (we very much use the inode lock for that), the simple solution is to just drop the pipe lock early. And since there were two users of this pattern, create a helper function for it. Introduced commit ba5bb147330a ("pipe: take allocation and freeing of pipe_inode_info out of ->i_mutex").

pipe: relocate round_pipe_size() above pipe_set_size() Patch series "pipe: fix limit handling", v2. When changing a pipe's capacity with fcntl(F_SETPIPE_SZ), various limits defined by /proc/sys/fs/pipe-* files are checked to see if unprivileged users are exceeding limits on memory consumption. While documenting and testing the operation of these limits I noticed that, as currently implemented, these checks have a number of problems: (1) When increasing the pipe capacity, the checks against the limits in /proc/sys/fs/pipe-user-pages-{soft,hard} are made against existing consumption, and exclude the memory required for the increased pipe capacity. The new increase in pipe capacity can then push the total memory used by the user for pipes (possibly far) over a limit. This can also trigger the problem described next. (2) The limit checks are performed even when the new pipe capacity is less than the existing pipe capacity. This can lead to problems if a user sets a large pipe capacity, and then the limits are lowered, with the result that the user will no longer be able to decrease the pipe capacity. (3) As currently implemented, accounting and checking against the limits is done as follows: (a) Test whether the user has exceeded the limit. (b) Make new pipe buffer allocation. (c) Account new allocation against the limits. This is racey. Multiple processes may pass point (a) simultaneously, and then allocate pipe buffers that are accounted for only in step (c). The race means that the user's pipe buffer allocation could be pushed over the limit (by an arbitrary amount, depending on how unlucky we were in the race). [Thanks to Vegard Nossum for spotting this point, which I had missed.] This patch series addresses these three problems. This patch (of 8): This is a minor preparatory patch.

pipe: relocate round_pipe_size() above pipe_set_size() Patch series "pipe: fix limit handling", v2. When changing a pipe's capacity with fcntl(F_SETPIPE_SZ), various limits defined by /proc/sys/fs/pipe-* files are checked to see if unprivileged users are exceeding limits on memory consumption. While documenting and testing the operation of these limits I noticed that, as currently implemented, these checks have a number of problems: (1) When increasing the pipe capacity, the checks against the limits in /proc/sys/fs/pipe-user-pages-{soft,hard} are made against existing consumption, and exclude the memory required for the increased pipe capacity. The new increase in pipe capacity can then push the total memory used by the user for pipes (possibly far) over a limit. This can also trigger the problem described next. (2) The limit checks are performed even when the new pipe capacity is less than the existing pipe capacity. This can lead to problems if a user sets a large pipe capacity, and then the limits are lowered, with the result that the user will no longer be able to decrease the pipe capacity. (3) As currently implemented, accounting and checking against the limits is done as follows: (a) Test whether the user has exceeded the limit. (b) Make new pipe buffer allocation. (c) Account new allocation against the limits. This is racey. Multiple processes may pass point (a) simultaneously, and then allocate pipe buffers that are accounted for only in step (c). The race means that the user's pipe buffer allocation could be pushed over the limit (by an arbitrary amount, depending on how unlucky we were in the race). [Thanks to Vegard Nossum for spotting this point, which I had missed.] This patch series addresses these three problems. This patch (of 8): This is a minor preparatory patch. After subsequent patches, round_pipe_size() will be called from pipe_set_size(), so place round_pipe_size() above pipe_set_size().

pipe: Add general notification queue support Make it possible to have a general notification queue built on top of a standard pipe. Notifications are 'spliced' into the pipe and then read out. splice(), vmsplice() and sendfile() are forbidden on pipes used for notifications as post_one_notification() cannot take pipe->mutex. This means that notifications could be posted in between individual pipe buffers, making iov_iter_revert() difficult to effect. The way the notification queue is used is: (1) An application opens a pipe with a special flag and indicates the number of messages it wishes to be able to queue at once (this can only be set once): pipe2(fds, O_NOTIFICATION_PIPE); ioctl(fds[0], IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_SIZE, queue_depth); (2) The application then uses poll() and read() as normal to extract data from the pipe. read() will return multiple notifications if the buffer is big enough, but it will not split a notification across buffers - rather it will return a short read or EMSGSIZE. Notification messages include a length in the header so that the caller can split them up. Each message has a header that describes it: struct watch_notification { __u32 type:24; __u32 subtype:8; __u32 info; }; The type indicates the source (eg. mount tree changes, superblock events, keyring changes, block layer events) and the subtype indicates the event type (eg. mount, unmount; EIO, EDQUOT; link, unlink). The info field indicates a number of things, including the entry length, an ID assigned to a watchpoint contributing to this buffer and type-specific flags. Supplementary data, such as the key ID that generated an event, can be attached in additional slots. The maximum message size is 127 bytes.

pipe: account to kmemcg Pipes can consume a significant amount of system memory, hence they should be accounted to kmemcg. This patch marks pipe_inode_info and anonymous pipe buffer page allocations as __GFP_ACCOUNT so that they would be charged to kmemcg. Note, since a pipe buffer page can be "stolen" and get reused for other purposes, including mapping to userspace, we clear PageKmemcg thus resetting page->_mapcount and uncharge it in anon_pipe_buf_steal, which is introduced by this patch. A note regarding anon_pipe_buf_steal implementation. We allow to steal the page if its ref count equals 1. It looks racy, but it is correct for anonymous pipe buffer pages, because: - We lock out all other pipe users, because ->steal is called with pipe_lock held, so the page can't be spliced to another pipe from under us. - The page is not on LRU and it never was. - Thus a parallel thread can access it only by PFN. Although this is quite possible (e.g. see page_idle_get_page and balloon_page_isolate) this is not dangerous, because all such functions do is increase page ref count, check if the page is the one they are looking for, and decrease ref count if it isn't. Since our page is clean except for PageKmemcg mark, which doesn't conflict with other _mapcount users, the worst that can happen is we see page_count > 2 due to a transient ref, in which case we false-positively abort ->steal, which is still fine, because ->steal is not guaranteed to succeed.

pipe: make sure to wake up everybody when the last reader/writer closes Andrei Vagin reported that commit 0ddad21d3e99 ("pipe: use exclusive waits when reading or writing") broke one of the CRIU tests. He even has a trivial reproducer: #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/wait.h> int main() { int p[2]; pid_t p1, p2; int status; if (pipe(p) == -1) return 1; p1 = fork(); if (p1 == 0) { close(p[1]); read(p[0], &status, sizeof(status)); return 0; } p2 = fork(); if (p2 == 0) { close(p[1]); read(p[0], &status, sizeof(status)); return 0; } sleep(1); close(p[1]); wait(&status); wait(&status); return 0; } and the problem - once he points it out - is obvious. We use these nice exclusive waits, but when the last writer goes away, it then needs to wake up _every_ reader (and conversely, the last reader disappearing needs to wake every writer, of course). In fact, when going through this, we had several small oddities around how to wake things. We did in fact wake every reader when we changed the size of the pipe buffers. But that's entirely pointless, since that just acts as a possible source of new space - no new data to read. And when we change the size of the buffer, we don't need to wake all writers even when we add space - that case acts just as if somebody made space by reading, and any writer that finds itself not filling it up entirely will wake the next one. On the other hand, on the exit path, we tried to limit the wakeups with the proper poll keys etc, which is entirely pointless, because at that point we obviously need to wake up everybody. So don't do that: just wake up everybody - but only do that if the counts changed to zero. So fix those non-IO wakeups to be more proper: space change doesn't add any new data, but it might make room for writers, so it wakes up a writer. And the actual changes to reader/writer counts should wake up everybody, since everybody is affected (ie readers will all see EOF if the writers have gone away, and writers will all get EPIPE if all readers have gone away).

pipe: fix limit checking in pipe_set_size() The limit checking in pipe_set_size() (used by fcntl(F_SETPIPE_SZ)) has the following problems: (1) When increasing the pipe capacity, the checks against the limits in /proc/sys/fs/pipe-user-pages-{soft,hard} are made against existing consumption, and exclude the memory required for the increased pipe capacity. The new increase in pipe capacity can then push the total memory used by the user for pipes (possibly far) over a limit. This can also trigger the problem described next. (2) The limit checks are performed even when the new pipe capacity is less than the existing pipe capacity. This can lead to problems if a user sets a large pipe capacity, and then the limits are lowered, with the result that the user will no longer be able to decrease the pipe capacity. (3) As currently implemented, accounting and checking against the limits is done as follows: (a) Test whether the user has exceeded the limit. (b) Make new pipe buffer allocation. (c) Account new allocation against the limits. This is racey. Multiple processes may pass point (a) simultaneously, and then allocate pipe buffers that are accounted for only in step (c). The race means that the user's pipe buffer allocation could be pushed over the limit (by an arbitrary amount, depending on how unlucky we were in the race). [Thanks to Vegard Nossum for spotting this point, which I had missed.] This patch addresses the above problems as follows: * Perform checks against the limits only when increasing a pipe's capacity; an unprivileged user can always decrease a pipe's capacity. * Alter the checks against limits to include the memory required for the new pipe capacity. * Re-order the accounting step so that it precedes the buffer allocation. If the accounting step determines that a limit has been reached, revert the accounting and cause the operation to fail. The program below can be used to demonstrate problems 1 and 2, and the effect of the fix. The program takes one or more command-line arguments. The first argument specifies the number of pipes that the program should create. The remaining arguments are, alternately, pipe capacities that should be set using fcntl(F_SETPIPE_SZ), and sleep intervals (in seconds) between the fcntl() operations. (The sleep intervals allow the possibility to change the limits between fcntl() operations.) Problem 1 ========= Using the test program on an unpatched kernel, we first set some limits: # echo 0 > /proc/sys/fs/pipe-user-pages-soft # echo 1000000000 > /proc/sys/fs/pipe-max-size # echo 10000 > /proc/sys/fs/pipe-user-pages-hard # 40.96 MB Then show that we can set a pipe with capacity (100MB) that is over the hard limit # sudo -u mtk ./test_F_SETPIPE_SZ 1 100000000 Initial pipe capacity: 65536 Loop 1: set pipe capacity to 100000000 bytes F_SETPIPE_SZ returned 134217728 Now set the capacity to 100MB twice. The second call fails (which is probably surprising to most users, since it seems like a no-op): # sudo -u mtk ./test_F_SETPIPE_SZ 1 100000000 0 100000000 Initial pipe capacity: 65536 Loop 1: set pipe capacity to 100000000 bytes F_SETPIPE_SZ returned 134217728 Loop 2: set pipe capacity to 100000000 bytes Loop 2, pipe 0: F_SETPIPE_SZ failed: fcntl: Operation not permitted With a patched kernel, setting a capacity over the limit fails at the first attempt: # echo 0 > /proc/sys/fs/pipe-user-pages-soft # echo 1000000000 > /proc/sys/fs/pipe-max-size # echo 10000 > /proc/sys/fs/pipe-user-pages-hard # sudo -u mtk ./test_F_SETPIPE_SZ 1 100000000 Initial pipe capacity: 65536 Loop 1: set pipe capacity to 100000000 bytes Loop 1, pipe 0: F_SETPIPE_SZ failed: fcntl: Operation not permitted There is a small chance that the change to fix this problem could break user-space, since there are cases where fcntl(F_SETPIPE_SZ) calls that previously succeeded might fail. However, the chances are small, since (a) the pipe-user-pages-{soft,hard} limits are new (in 4.5), and the default soft/hard limits are high/unlimited. Therefore, it seems warranted to make these limits operate more precisely (and behave more like what users probably expect). Problem 2 ========= Running the test program on an unpatched kernel, we first set some limits: # getconf PAGESIZE 4096 # echo 0 > /proc/sys/fs/pipe-user-pages-soft # echo 1000000000 > /proc/sys/fs/pipe-max-size # echo 10000 > /proc/sys/fs/pipe-user-pages-hard # 40.96 MB Now perform two fcntl(F_SETPIPE_SZ) operations on a single pipe, first setting a pipe capacity (10MB), sleeping for a few seconds, during which time the hard limit is lowered, and then set pipe capacity to a smaller amount (5MB): # sudo -u mtk ./test_F_SETPIPE_SZ 1 10000000 15 5000000 & [1] 748 # Initial pipe capacity: 65536 Loop 1: set pipe capacity to 10000000 bytes F_SETPIPE_SZ returned 16777216 Sleeping 15 seconds # echo 1000 > /proc/sys/fs/pipe-user-pages-hard # 4.096 MB # Loop 2: set pipe capacity to 5000000 bytes Loop 2, pipe 0: F_SETPIPE_SZ failed: fcntl: Operation not permitted In this case, the user should be able to lower the limit. With a kernel that has the patch below, the second fcntl() succeeds: # echo 0 > /proc/sys/fs/pipe-user-pages-soft # echo 1000000000 > /proc/sys/fs/pipe-max-size # echo 10000 > /proc/sys/fs/pipe-user-pages-hard # sudo -u mtk ./test_F_SETPIPE_SZ 1 10000000 15 5000000 & [1] 3215 # Initial pipe capacity: 65536 # Loop 1: set pipe capacity to 10000000 bytes F_SETPIPE_SZ returned 16777216 Sleeping 15 seconds # echo 1000 > /proc/sys/fs/pipe-user-pages-hard # Loop 2: set pipe capacity to 5000000 bytes F_SETPIPE_SZ returned 8388608 8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x--- /* test_F_SETPIPE_SZ.c (C) 2016, Michael Kerrisk; licensed under GNU GPL version 2 or later Test operation of fcntl(F_SETPIPE_SZ) for setting pipe capacity and interactions with limits defined by /proc/sys/fs/pipe-* files. */ #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <unistd.h> int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { int (*pfd)[2]; int npipes; int pcap, rcap; int j, p, s, stime, loop; if (argc < 2) { fprintf(stderr, "Usage: %s num-pipes " "[pipe-capacity sleep-time]...\n", argv[0]); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } npipes = atoi(argv[1]); pfd = calloc(npipes, sizeof (int [2])); if (pfd == NULL) { perror("calloc"); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } for (j = 0; j < npipes; j++) { if (pipe(pfd[j]) == -1) { fprintf(stderr, "Loop %d: pipe() failed: ", j); perror("pipe"); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } } printf("Initial pipe capacity: %d\n", fcntl(pfd[0][0], F_GETPIPE_SZ)); for (j = 2; j < argc; j += 2 ) { loop = j / 2; pcap = atoi(argv[j]); printf(" Loop %d: set pipe capacity to %d bytes\n", loop, pcap); for (p = 0; p < npipes; p++) { s = fcntl(pfd[p][0], F_SETPIPE_SZ, pcap); if (s == -1) { fprintf(stderr, " Loop %d, pipe %d: F_SETPIPE_SZ " "failed: ", loop, p); perror("fcntl"); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } if (p == 0) { printf(" F_SETPIPE_SZ returned %d\n", s); rcap = s; } else { if (s != rcap) { fprintf(stderr, " Loop %d, pipe %d: F_SETPIPE_SZ " "unexpected return: %d\n", loop, p, s); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } } stime = (j + 1 < argc) ? atoi(argv[j + 1]) : 0; if (stime > 0) { printf(" Sleeping %d seconds\n", stime); sleep(stime); } } } exit(EXIT_SUCCESS); } 8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x--- Patch history: v2 * Switch order of test in 'if' statement to avoid function call (to capability()) in normal path.

[Thanks to Vegard Nossum] Quoting Vegard: The potential problem happens if the user passes a very large number which will overflow pipe->user->pipe_bufs. On 32-bit, sizeof(int) == sizeof(long), so if they pass arg = INT_MAX then round_pipe_size() returns INT_MAX. Although it's true that the accounting is done in terms of pages and not bytes, so you'd need on the order of (1 << 13) = 8192 processes hitting the limit at the same time in order to make it overflow, which seems a bit unlikely.

out_revert_acct:
pipe: Add general notification queue support Make it possible to have a general notification queue built on top of a standard pipe. Notifications are 'spliced' into the pipe and then read out. splice(), vmsplice() and sendfile() are forbidden on pipes used for notifications as post_one_notification() cannot take pipe->mutex. This means that notifications could be posted in between individual pipe buffers, making iov_iter_revert() difficult to effect. The way the notification queue is used is: (1) An application opens a pipe with a special flag and indicates the number of messages it wishes to be able to queue at once (this can only be set once): pipe2(fds, O_NOTIFICATION_PIPE); ioctl(fds[0], IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_SIZE, queue_depth); (2) The application then uses poll() and read() as normal to extract data from the pipe. read() will return multiple notifications if the buffer is big enough, but it will not split a notification across buffers - rather it will return a short read or EMSGSIZE. Notification messages include a length in the header so that the caller can split them up. Each message has a header that describes it: struct watch_notification { __u32 type:24; __u32 subtype:8; __u32 info; }; The type indicates the source (eg. mount tree changes, superblock events, keyring changes, block layer events) and the subtype indicates the event type (eg. mount, unmount; EIO, EDQUOT; link, unlink). The info field indicates a number of things, including the entry length, an ID assigned to a watchpoint contributing to this buffer and type-specific flags. Supplementary data, such as the key ID that generated an event, can be attached in additional slots. The maximum message size is 127 bytes. Messages may not be padded or aligned, so there is no guarantee, for example, that the notification type will be on a 4-byte bounary. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

(void) account_pipe_buffers(pipe->user, nr_slots, pipe->nr_accounted);
pipe: fix limit checking in pipe_set_size() The limit checking in pipe_set_size() (used by fcntl(F_SETPIPE_SZ)) has the following problems: (1) When increasing the pipe capacity, the checks against the limits in /proc/sys/fs/pipe-user-pages-{soft,hard} are made against existing consumption, and exclude the memory required for the increased pipe capacity. The new increase in pipe capacity can then push the total memory used by the user for pipes (possibly far) over a limit. This can also trigger the problem described next. (2) The limit checks are performed even when the new pipe capacity is less than the existing pipe capacity. This can lead to problems if a user sets a large pipe capacity, and then the limits are lowered, with the result that the user will no longer be able to decrease the pipe capacity. (3) As currently implemented, accounting and checking against the limits is done as follows: (a) Test whether the user has exceeded the limit. (b) Make new pipe buffer allocation. (c) Account new allocation against the limits. This is racey. Multiple processes may pass point (a) simultaneously, and then allocate pipe buffers that are accounted for only in step (c). The race means that the user's pipe buffer allocation could be pushed over the limit (by an arbitrary amount, depending on how unlucky we were in the race). [Thanks to Vegard Nossum for spotting this point, which I had missed.] This patch addresses the above problems as follows: * Perform checks against the limits only when increasing a pipe's capacity; an unprivileged user can always decrease a pipe's capacity. * Alter the checks against limits to include the memory required for the new pipe capacity. * Re-order the accounting step so that it precedes the buffer allocation. If the accounting step determines that a limit has been reached, revert the accounting and cause the operation to fail. The program below can be used to demonstrate problems 1 and 2, and the effect of the fix. The program takes one or more command-line arguments. The first argument specifies the number of pipes that the program should create. The remaining arguments are, alternately, pipe capacities that should be set using fcntl(F_SETPIPE_SZ), and sleep intervals (in seconds) between the fcntl() operations. (The sleep intervals allow the possibility to change the limits between fcntl() operations.) Problem 1 ========= Using the test program on an unpatched kernel, we first set some limits: # echo 0 > /proc/sys/fs/pipe-user-pages-soft # echo 1000000000 > /proc/sys/fs/pipe-max-size # echo 10000 > /proc/sys/fs/pipe-user-pages-hard # 40.96 MB Then show that we can set a pipe with capacity (100MB) that is over the hard limit # sudo -u mtk ./test_F_SETPIPE_SZ 1 100000000 Initial pipe capacity: 65536 Loop 1: set pipe capacity to 100000000 bytes F_SETPIPE_SZ returned 134217728 Now set the capacity to 100MB twice. The second call fails (which is probably surprising to most users, since it seems like a no-op): # sudo -u mtk ./test_F_SETPIPE_SZ 1 100000000 0 100000000 Initial pipe capacity: 65536 Loop 1: set pipe capacity to 100000000 bytes F_SETPIPE_SZ returned 134217728 Loop 2: set pipe capacity to 100000000 bytes Loop 2, pipe 0: F_SETPIPE_SZ failed: fcntl: Operation not permitted With a patched kernel, setting a capacity over the limit fails at the first attempt: # echo 0 > /proc/sys/fs/pipe-user-pages-soft # echo 1000000000 > /proc/sys/fs/pipe-max-size # echo 10000 > /proc/sys/fs/pipe-user-pages-hard # sudo -u mtk ./test_F_SETPIPE_SZ 1 100000000 Initial pipe capacity: 65536 Loop 1: set pipe capacity to 100000000 bytes Loop 1, pipe 0: F_SETPIPE_SZ failed: fcntl: Operation not permitted There is a small chance that the change to fix this problem could break user-space, since there are cases where fcntl(F_SETPIPE_SZ) calls that previously succeeded might fail. However, the chances are small, since (a) the pipe-user-pages-{soft,hard} limits are new (in 4.5), and the default soft/hard limits are high/unlimited. Therefore, it seems warranted to make these limits operate more precisely (and behave more like what users probably expect). Problem 2 ========= Running the test program on an unpatched kernel, we first set some limits: # getconf PAGESIZE 4096 # echo 0 > /proc/sys/fs/pipe-user-pages-soft # echo 1000000000 > /proc/sys/fs/pipe-max-size # echo 10000 > /proc/sys/fs/pipe-user-pages-hard # 40.96 MB Now perform two fcntl(F_SETPIPE_SZ) operations on a single pipe, first setting a pipe capacity (10MB), sleeping for a few seconds, during which time the hard limit is lowered, and then set pipe capacity to a smaller amount (5MB): # sudo -u mtk ./test_F_SETPIPE_SZ 1 10000000 15 5000000 & [1] 748 # Initial pipe capacity: 65536 Loop 1: set pipe capacity to 10000000 bytes F_SETPIPE_SZ returned 16777216 Sleeping 15 seconds # echo 1000 > /proc/sys/fs/pipe-user-pages-hard # 4.096 MB # Loop 2: set pipe capacity to 5000000 bytes Loop 2, pipe 0: F_SETPIPE_SZ failed: fcntl: Operation not permitted In this case, the user should be able to lower the limit. With a kernel that has the patch below, the second fcntl() succeeds: # echo 0 > /proc/sys/fs/pipe-user-pages-soft # echo 1000000000 > /proc/sys/fs/pipe-max-size # echo 10000 > /proc/sys/fs/pipe-user-pages-hard # sudo -u mtk ./test_F_SETPIPE_SZ 1 10000000 15 5000000 & [1] 3215 # Initial pipe capacity: 65536 # Loop 1: set pipe capacity to 10000000 bytes F_SETPIPE_SZ returned 16777216 Sleeping 15 seconds # echo 1000 > /proc/sys/fs/pipe-user-pages-hard # Loop 2: set pipe capacity to 5000000 bytes F_SETPIPE_SZ returned 8388608 8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x--- /* test_F_SETPIPE_SZ.c (C) 2016, Michael Kerrisk; licensed under GNU GPL version 2 or later Test operation of fcntl(F_SETPIPE_SZ) for setting pipe capacity and interactions with limits defined by /proc/sys/fs/pipe-* files. */ #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <unistd.h> int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { int (*pfd)[2]; int npipes; int pcap, rcap; int j, p, s, stime, loop; if (argc < 2) { fprintf(stderr, "Usage: %s num-pipes " "[pipe-capacity sleep-time]...\n", argv[0]); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } npipes = atoi(argv[1]); pfd = calloc(npipes, sizeof (int [2])); if (pfd == NULL) { perror("calloc"); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } for (j = 0; j < npipes; j++) { if (pipe(pfd[j]) == -1) { fprintf(stderr, "Loop %d: pipe() failed: ", j); perror("pipe"); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } } printf("Initial pipe capacity: %d\n", fcntl(pfd[0][0], F_GETPIPE_SZ)); for (j = 2; j < argc; j += 2 ) { loop = j / 2; pcap = atoi(argv[j]); printf(" Loop %d: set pipe capacity to %d bytes\n", loop, pcap); for (p = 0; p < npipes; p++) { s = fcntl(pfd[p][0], F_SETPIPE_SZ, pcap); if (s == -1) { fprintf(stderr, " Loop %d, pipe %d: F_SETPIPE_SZ " "failed: ", loop, p); perror("fcntl"); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } if (p == 0) { printf(" F_SETPIPE_SZ returned %d\n", s); rcap = s; } else { if (s != rcap) { fprintf(stderr, " Loop %d, pipe %d: F_SETPIPE_SZ " "unexpected return: %d\n", loop, p, s); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } } stime = (j + 1 < argc) ? atoi(argv[j + 1]) : 0; if (stime > 0) { printf(" Sleeping %d seconds\n", stime); sleep(stime); } } } exit(EXIT_SUCCESS); } 8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x---8x--- Patch history: v2 * Switch order of test in 'if' statement to avoid function call (to capability()) in normal path.
