In log_early function, crt_early_log should also count once when
'crt_early_log >= ARRAY_SIZE(early_log)'. Otherwise the reported count
from kmemleak_init is one less than 'actual number'.
Then, in kmemleak_init, if early_log buffer size equal actual number,
kmemleak will init sucessful, so change warning condition to
'crt_early_log > ARRAY_SIZE(early_log)'.

The kmemleak memory scanning uses finer grained object->lock spinlocks
primarily to avoid races with the memory block freeing. However, the
pointer lookup in the rb tree requires the kmemleak_lock to be held.
This is currently done in the find_and_get_object() function for each
pointer-like location read during scanning. While this allows a low
latency on kmemleak_*() callbacks on other CPUs, the memory scanning is
slower.
This patch moves the kmemleak_lock outside the scan_block() loop,
acquiring/releasing it only once per scanned memory block. The
allow_resched logic is moved outside scan_block() and a new
scan_large_block() function is implemented which splits large blocks in
MAX_SCAN_SIZE chunks with cond_resched() calls in-between. A redundant
(object->flags & OBJECT_NO_SCAN) check is also removed from
scan_object().
With this patch, the kmemleak scanning performance is significantly
improved: at least 50% with lock debugging disabled and over an order of
magnitude with lock proving enabled (on an arm64 system).

While very unlikely (usually kmemleak or sl*b bug), the create_object()
function in mm/kmemleak.c may fail to insert a newly allocated object into
the rb tree. When this happens, kmemleak disables itself and prints
additional information about the object already found in the rb tree.
Such printing is done with the parent->lock acquired, however the
kmemleak_lock is already held. This is a potential race with the scanning
thread which acquires object->lock and kmemleak_lock in a
This patch removes the locking around the 'parent' object information
printing. Such object cannot be freed or removed from object_tree_root
and object_list since kmemleak_lock is already held. There is a very
small risk that some of the object data is being modified on another CPU
but the only downside is inconsistent information printing.

Calling delete_object_*() on the same pointer is not a standard use case
(unless there is a bug in the code calling kmemleak_free()). However,
during kmemleak disabling (error or user triggered via /sys), there is a
potential race between kmemleak_free() calls on a CPU and
__kmemleak_do_cleanup() on a different CPU.
The current delete_object_*() implementation first performs a look-up
holding kmemleak_lock, increments the object->use_count and then
re-acquires kmemleak_lock to remove the object from object_tree_root and
object_list.
This patch simplifies the delete_object_*() mechanism to both look up
and remove an object from the object_tree_root and object_list
atomically (guarded by kmemleak_lock). This allows safe concurrent
calls to delete_object_*() on the same pointer without additional
locking for synchronising the kmemleak_free_enabled flag.
A side effect is a slight improvement in the delete_object_*() performance
by avoiding acquiring kmemleak_lock twice and incrementing/decrementing
object->use_count.

The kmemleak scanning thread can run for minutes. Callbacks like
kmemleak_free() are allowed during this time, the race being taken care
of by the object->lock spinlock. Such lock also prevents a memory block
from being freed or unmapped while it is being scanned by blocking the
kmemleak_free() -> ... -> __delete_object() function until the lock is
released in scan_object().
When a kmemleak error occurs (e.g. it fails to allocate its metadata),
kmemleak_enabled is set and __delete_object() is no longer called on
freed objects. If kmemleak_scan is running at the same time,
kmemleak_free() no longer waits for the object scanning to complete,
allowing the corresponding memory block to be freed or unmapped (in the
case of vfree()). This leads to kmemleak_scan potentially triggering a
page fault.
This patch separates the kmemleak_free() enabling/disabling from the
overall kmemleak_enabled nob so that we can defer the disabling of the
object freeing tracking until the scanning thread completed. The
kmemleak_free_part() is deliberately ignored by this patch since this is
only called during boot before the scanning thread started.

Not all kmem allocations should be accounted to memcg. The following
patch gives an example when accounting of a certain type of allocations to
memcg can effectively result in a memory leak. This patch adds the
__GFP_NOACCOUNT flag which if passed to kmalloc and friends will force the
allocation to go through the root cgroup. It will be used by the next
patch.
Note, since in case of kmemleak enabled each kmalloc implies yet another
allocation from the kmemleak_object cache, we add __GFP_NOACCOUNT to
gfp_kmemleak_mask.
Alternatively, we could introduce a per kmem cache flag disabling
accounting for all allocations of a particular kind, but (a) we would not
be able to bypass accounting for kmalloc then and (b) a kmem cache with
this flag set could not be merged with a kmem cache without this flag,
which would increase the number of global caches and therefore
fragmentation even if the memory cgroup controller is not used.
Despite its generic name, currently __GFP_NOACCOUNT disables accounting
only for kmem allocations while user page allocations are always charged.
To catch abusing of this flag, a warning is issued on an attempt of
passing it to mem_cgroup_try_charge.

kmem_cache_{create,destroy,shrink} need to get a stable value of
cpu/node online mask, because they init/destroy/access per-cpu/node
kmem_cache parts, which can be allocated or destroyed on cpu/mem
hotplug. To protect against cpu hotplug, these functions use
{get,put}_online_cpus. However, they do nothing to synchronize with
memory hotplug - taking the slab_mutex does not eliminate the
possibility of race as described in patch 2.
What we need there is something like get_online_cpus, but for memory.
We already have lock_memory_hotplug, which serves for the purpose, but
it's a bit of a hammer right now, because it's backed by a mutex. As a
result, it imposes some limitations to locking order, which are not
desirable, and can't be used just like get_online_cpus. That's why in
patch 1 I substitute it with get/put_online_mems, which work exactly
like get/put_online_cpus except they block not cpu, but memory hotplug.
[ v1 can be found at https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/6/68. I NAK'ed it by
myself, because it used an rw semaphore for get/put_online_mems,
making them dead lock prune. ]
This patch (of 2):
{un}lock_memory_hotplug, which is used to synchronize against memory
hotplug, is currently backed by a mutex, which makes it a bit of a
hammer - threads that only want to get a stable value of online nodes
mask won't be able to proceed concurrently. Also, it imposes some
strong locking ordering rules on it, which narrows down the set of its
usage scenarios.
This patch introduces get/put_online_mems, which are the same as
get/put_online_cpus, but for memory hotplug, i.e. executing a code
inside a get/put_online_mems section will guarantee a stable value of
online nodes, present pages, etc.
lock_memory_hotplug()/unlock_memory_hotplug() are removed altogether.

Commit 8910ae896c ("kmemleak: change some global variables to int"),
in addition to the atomic -> int conversion, moved the disabling of
kmemleak_early_log to the beginning of the kmemleak_init() function,
before the full kmemleak tracing is actually enabled. In this small
window, kmem_cache_create() is called by kmemleak which triggers
additional memory allocation that are not traced. This patch restores
the original logic with kmemleak_early_log disabling when kmemleak is
fully functional.

Commit 248ac0e194 ("mm/vmalloc: remove guard page from between vmap
blocks") had the side effect of making vmap_area.va_end member point to
the next vmap_area.va_start. This was creating an artificial reference
to vmalloc'ed objects and kmemleak was rarely reporting vmalloc() leaks.
This patch marks the vmap_area containing pointers explicitly and
reduces the min ref_count to 2 as vm_struct still contains a reference
to the vmalloc'ed object. The kmemleak add_scan_area() function has
been improved to allow a SIZE_MAX argument covering the rest of the
object (for simpler calling sites).

I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived
list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)
The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:
hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)
Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.
Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:
- Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
- Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
- A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
was modified to use 'obj->member' instead.
- Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.

Add 2 helpers (zone_end_pfn() and zone_spans_pfn()) to reduce code

This also switches to using them in compaction (where an additional

kmemleak.
Note that in compaction.c I avoid calling zone_end_pfn() repeatedly
because I expect at some point the sycronization issues with start_pfn &
spanned_pages will need fixing, either by actually using the seqlock or
clever memory barrier usage.

kmemleak uses a tree where each node represents an allocated memory object
in order to quickly find out what object a given address is part of.
However, the objects don't overlap, so rbtrees are a better choice than
prio tree for this use. They are both faster and have lower memory
overhead.
Tested by booting a kernel with kmemleak enabled, loading the
kmemleak_test module, and looking for the expected messages.

This patch adds kmemleak callbacks from the percpu allocator, reducing a
number of false positives caused by kmemleak not scanning such memory
blocks. The percpu chunks are never reported as leaks because of current
kmemleak limitations with the __percpu pointer not pointing directly to
the actual chunks.

Just telling that the early log buffer has been exceeded doesn't mean

Based on initial patch by Steven Rostedt.
Early kmemleak warnings did not show where the actual kmemleak API had
been called from but rather just a backtrace to the kmemleak_init()
function. By having all early kmemleak logs record the stack_trace, we
can have kmemleak_init() write exactly where the problem occurred. This
patch adds the setting of the kmemleak_warning variable every time a
kmemleak warning is issued. The kmemleak_init() function checks this
variable during early log replaying and prints the log trace if there
was any warning.

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Many of the false positives in kmemleak happen on busy systems where
objects are allocated during a kmemleak scanning episode. These objects
aren't scanned by default until the next memory scan. When such object
is added, for example, at the head of a list, it is possible that all
the other objects in the list become unreferenced until the next scan.
This patch adds checking for newly allocated objects at the end of the

new objects at a higher rate than their scanning, it stops after a
predefined number of passes.
