Merge tag 'slab-for-6.5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vbabka/slab

Pull slab updates from Vlastimil Babka:

 - SLAB deprecation:

   Following the discussion at LSF/MM 2023 [1] and no objections, the
   SLAB allocator is deprecated by renaming the config option (to make
   its users notice) to CONFIG_SLAB_DEPRECATED with updated help text.
   SLUB should be used instead. Existing defconfigs with CONFIG_SLAB are
   also updated.

 - SLAB_NO_MERGE kmem_cache flag (Jesper Dangaard Brouer):

   There are (very limited) cases where kmem_cache merging is
   undesirable, and existing ways to prevent it are hacky. Introduce a
   new flag to do that cleanly and convert the existing hacky users.
   Btrfs plans to use this for debug kernel builds (that use case is
   always fine), networking for performance reasons (that should be very
   rare).

 - Replace the usage of weak PRNGs (David Keisar Schmidt):

   In addition to using stronger RNGs for the security related features,
   the code is a bit cleaner.

 - Misc code cleanups (SeongJae Parki, Xiongwei Song, Zhen Lei, and
   zhaoxinchao)

Catalin Marinas b035f5a6d8 mm: slab: reduce the kmalloc() minimum alignment if DMA bouncing possible
If an architecture opted in to DMA bouncing of unaligned kmalloc() buffers
(ARCH_WANT_KMALLOC_DMA_BOUNCE), reduce the minimum kmalloc() cache
alignment below cache-line size to ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN.

Catalin Marinas 963e84b0f2 mm/slab: limit kmalloc() minimum alignment to dma_get_cache_alignment()
Do not create kmalloc() caches which are not aligned to
dma_get_cache_alignment().  There is no functional change since for
current architectures defining ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN, ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN
equals ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN (and dma_get_cache_alignment()).  On
architectures without a specific ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN,
dma_get_cache_alignment() is 1, so no change to the kmalloc() caches.

Catalin Marinas 0c474d31a6 mm/slab: simplify create_kmalloc_cache() args and make it static
In the slab variant of kmem_cache_init(), call new_kmalloc_cache() instead
of initialising the kmalloc_caches array directly.  With this,
create_kmalloc_cache() is now only called from new_kmalloc_cache() in the
same file, so make it static.  In addition, the useroffset argument is
always 0 while usersize is the same as size.  Remove them.

Vlastimil Babka d5bf485746 mm/slab_common: use SLAB_NO_MERGE instead of negative refcount
When CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM is enabled, we disable cache merging for
KMALLOC_NORMAL caches so they don't end up merged with a cache that uses
ad-hoc __GFP_ACCOUNT when allocating. This was implemented by setting
the refcount to -1, but now we have a proper SLAB_NO_MERGE flag, so use
that instead.

Jesper Dangaard Brouer d0bf7d5759 mm/slab: introduce kmem_cache flag SLAB_NO_MERGE
Allow API users of kmem_cache_create to specify that they don't want
any slab merge or aliasing (with similar sized objects). Use this in
kfence_test.

The SKB (sk_buff) kmem_cache slab is critical for network performance.
Network stack uses kmem_cache_{alloc,free}_bulk APIs to gain
performance by amortising the alloc/free cost.

For the bulk API to perform efficiently the slub fragmentation need to
be low. Especially for the SLUB allocator, the efficiency of bulk free
API depend on objects belonging to the same slab (page).

When running different network performance microbenchmarks, I started
to notice that performance was reduced (slightly) when machines had
longer uptimes. I believe the cause was 'skbuff_head_cache' got
aliased/merged into the general slub for 256 bytes sized objects (with
my kernel config, without CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY).

For SKB kmem_cache network stack have reasons for not merging, but it
varies depending on kernel config (e.g. CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY).
We want to explicitly set SLAB_NO_MERGE for this kmem_cache.

Another use case for the flag has been described by David Sterba [1]:

> This can be used for more fine grained control over the caches or for
> debugging builds where separate slabs can verify that no objects leak.

> The slab_nomerge boot option is too coarse and would need to be
> enabled on all testing hosts. There are some other ways how to disable
> merging, e.g. a slab constructor but this disables poisoning besides
> that it adds additional overhead. Other flags are internal and may
> have other semantics.

> A concrete example what motivates the flag. During 'btrfs balance'
> slab top reported huge increase in caches like

>  1330095 1330095 100%    0.10K  34105       39    136420K Acpi-ParseExt
>  1734684 1734684 100%    0.14K  61953       28    247812K pid_namespace
>  8244036 6873075  83%    0.11K 229001       36    916004K khugepaged_mm_slot

> which was confusing and that it's because of slab merging was not the

David Keisar Schmidt ffe4dfe0ba mm/slab_common: Replace invocation of weak PRNG
The Slab allocator randomization inside slab_common.c
uses the prandom_u32 PRNG. That was added to prevent attackers to obtain
information on the heap state.

However, this PRNG turned out to be weak, as noted in commit c51f8f88d7
To fix it, we have changed the invocation of prandom_u32_state to get_random_u32
to ensure the PRNG is strong.

Since a modulo operation is applied right after that,
in the Fisher-Yates shuffle, we used get_random_u32_below, to achieve uniformity.

Vlastimil Babka ae65a5211d mm/slab: document kfree() as allowed for kmem_cache_alloc() objects
This will make it easier to free objects in situations when they can
come from either kmalloc() or kmem_cache_alloc(), and also allow
kfree_rcu() for freeing objects from kmem_cache_alloc().

For the SLAB and SLUB allocators this was always possible so with SLOB
gone, we can document it as supported.

Feng Tang bbc61844b4 mm/kasan: simplify and refine kasan_cache code
struct 'kasan_cache' has a member 'is_kmalloc' indicating whether its host
kmem_cache is a kmalloc cache.  With newly introduced is_kmalloc_cache()
helper, 'is_kmalloc' and its related function can be replaced and removed.

Also 'kasan_cache' is only needed by KASAN generic mode, and not by SW/HW
tag modes, so refine its protection macro accordingly, suggested by Andrey
Konoval.

Kees Cook 38931d8989 mm: Make ksize() a reporting-only function
With all "silently resizing" callers of ksize() refactored, remove the
logic in ksize() that would allow it to be used to effectively change
the size of an allocation (bypassing __alloc_size hints, etc). Users
wanting this feature need to either use kmalloc_size_roundup() before an
allocation, or use krealloc() directly.

For kfree_sensitive(), move the unpoisoning logic inline. Replace the
some of the partially open-coded ksize() in __do_krealloc with ksize()
now that it doesn't perform unpoisoning.

Adjust the KUnit tests to match the new ksize() behavior. Execution
tested with:

$ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run \
	--kconfig_add CONFIG_KASAN=y \
	--kconfig_add CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC=y \
	--arch x86_64 kasan

Vlastimil Babka 2f7c1c1396 mm, slub: don't create kmalloc-rcl caches with CONFIG_SLUB_TINY
Distinguishing kmalloc(__GFP_RECLAIMABLE) can help against fragmentation
by grouping pages by mobility, but on tiny systems the extra memory
overhead of separate set of kmalloc-rcl caches will probably be worse,
and mobility grouping likely disabled anyway.

Thus with CONFIG_SLUB_TINY, don't create kmalloc-rcl caches and use the
regular ones.

Vlastimil Babka 346907ceb9 mm, slab: ignore hardened usercopy parameters when disabled
With CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY not enabled, there are no
__check_heap_object() checks happening that would use the struct
kmem_cache useroffset and usersize fields. Yet the fields are still
initialized, preventing merging of otherwise compatible caches.

Also the fields contribute to struct kmem_cache size unnecessarily when
unused. Thus #ifdef them out completely when CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY is
disabled. In kmem_dump_obj() print object_size instead of usersize, as
that's actually the intention.

In a quick virtme boot test, this has reduced the number of caches in
/proc/slabinfo from 131 to 111.

Feng Tang 946fa0dbf2 mm/slub: extend redzone check to extra allocated kmalloc space than requested
kmalloc will round up the request size to a fixed size (mostly power
of 2), so there could be a extra space than what is requested, whose
size is the actual buffer size minus original request size.

To better detect out of bound access or abuse of this space, add
redzone sanity check for it.

In current kernel, some kmalloc user already knows the existence of
the space and utilizes it after calling 'ksize()' to know the real
size of the allocated buffer. So we skip the sanity check for objects
which have been called with ksize(), as treating them as legitimate
users. Kees Cook is working on sanitizing all these user cases,
by using kmalloc_size_roundup() to avoid ambiguous usages. And after
this is done, this special handling for ksize() can be removed.

In some cases, the free pointer could be saved inside the latter
part of object data area, which may overlap the redzone part(for
small sizes of kmalloc objects). As suggested by Hyeonggon Yoo,
force the free pointer to be in meta data area when kmalloc redzone
debug is enabled, to make all kmalloc objects covered by redzone
check.

There is an older kernel-doc comment for ksize() definition in

Vlastimil Babka eb4940d4ad mm/slab: remove !CONFIG_TRACING variants of kmalloc_[node_]trace()
For !CONFIG_TRACING kernels, the kmalloc() implementation tries (in cases where
the allocation size is build-time constant) to save a function call, by
inlining kmalloc_trace() to a kmem_cache_alloc() call.

However since commit 6edf2576a6 ("mm/slub: enable debugging memory wasting of
kmalloc") this path now fails to pass the original request size to be
eventually recorded (for kmalloc caches with debugging enabled).

We could adjust the code to call __kmem_cache_alloc_node() as the
CONFIG_TRACING variant, but that would as a result inline a call with 5
parameters, bloating the kmalloc() call sites. The cost of extra function
call (to kmalloc_trace()) seems like a lesser evil.

It also appears that the !CONFIG_TRACING variant is incompatible with upcoming
hardening efforts [1] so it's easier if we just remove it now. Kernels with no
tracing are rare these days and the benefit is dubious anyway.

Kees Cook 05a940656e slab: Introduce kmalloc_size_roundup()
In the effort to help the compiler reason about buffer sizes, the
__alloc_size attribute was added to allocators. This improves the scope
of the compiler's ability to apply CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS and (in the near
future) CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE. For most allocations, this works well,
as the vast majority of callers are not expecting to use more memory
than what they asked for.

There is, however, one common exception to this: anticipatory resizing
of kmalloc allocations. These cases all use ksize() to determine the
actual bucket size of a given allocation (e.g. 128 when 126 was asked
for). This comes in two styles in the kernel:

1) An allocation has been determined to be too small, and needs to be
   resized. Instead of the caller choosing its own next best size, it
   wants to minimize the number of calls to krealloc(), so it just uses
   ksize() plus some additional bytes, forcing the realloc into the next
   bucket size, from which it can learn how large it is now. For example:

	data = krealloc(data, ksize(data) + 1, gfp);
	data_len = ksize(data);

2) The minimum size of an allocation is calculated, but since it may
   grow in the future, just use all the space available in the chosen
   bucket immediately, to avoid needing to reallocate later. A good
   example of this is skbuff's allocators:

	data = kmalloc_reserve(size, gfp_mask, node, &pfmemalloc);
	...
	/* kmalloc(size) might give us more room than requested.
	 * Put skb_shared_info exactly at the end of allocated zone,
	 * to allow max possible filling before reallocation.
	 */
	osize = ksize(data);
        size = SKB_WITH_OVERHEAD(osize);

In both cases, the "how much was actually allocated?" question is answered
_after_ the allocation, where the compiler hinting is not in an easy place
to make the association any more. This mismatch between the compiler's
view of the buffer length and the code's intention about how much it is
going to actually use has already caused problems[1]. It is possible to
fix this by reordering the use of the "actual size" information.

We can serve the needs of users of ksize() and still have accurate buffer
length hinting for the compiler by doing the bucket size calculation
_before_ the allocation. Code can instead ask "how large an allocation
would I get for a given size?".

Introduce kmalloc_size_roundup(), to serve this function so we can start
replacing the "anticipatory resizing" uses of ksize().

Kees Cook 9ed9cac185 slab: Remove __malloc attribute from realloc functions
The __malloc attribute should not be applied to "realloc" functions, as
the returned pointer may alias the storage of the prior pointer. Instead
of splitting __malloc from __alloc_size, which would be a huge amount of
churn, just create __realloc_size for the few cases where it is needed.

Thanks to Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@linux-m68k.org> for reporting build
failures with gcc-8 in earlier version which tried to remove the #ifdef.
While the "alloc_size" attribute is available on all GCC versions, I
forgot that it gets disabled explicitly by the kernel in GCC < 9.1 due
to misbehaviors. Add a note to the compiler_attributes.h entry for it.

Feng Tang 6edf2576a6 mm/slub: enable debugging memory wasting of kmalloc
kmalloc's API family is critical for mm, with one nature that it will
round up the request size to a fixed one (mostly power of 2). Say
when user requests memory for '2^n + 1' bytes, actually 2^(n+1) bytes
could be allocated, so in worst case, there is around 50% memory
space waste.

The wastage is not a big issue for requests that get allocated/freed
quickly, but may cause problems with objects that have longer life
time.

We've met a kernel boot OOM panic (v5.10), and from the dumped slab
info:

    [   26.062145] kmalloc-2k            814056KB     814056KB

From debug we found there are huge number of 'struct iova_magazine',
whose size is 1032 bytes (1024 + 8), so each allocation will waste
1016 bytes. Though the issue was solved by giving the right (bigger)
size of RAM, it is still nice to optimize the size (either use a
kmalloc friendly size or create a dedicated slab for it).

And from lkml archive, there was another crash kernel OOM case [1]
back in 2019, which seems to be related with the similar slab waste
situation, as the log is similar:

    [    4.332648] iommu: Adding device 0000:20:02.0 to group 16
    [    4.338946] swapper/0 invoked oom-killer: gfp_mask=0x6040c0(GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_COMP), nodemask=(null), order=0, oom_score_adj=0
    ...
    [    4.857565] kmalloc-2048           59164KB      59164KB

The crash kernel only has 256M memory, and 59M is pretty big here.
(Note: the related code has been changed and optimised in recent
kernel [2], these logs are just picked to demo the problem, also
a patch changing its size to 1024 bytes has been merged)

So add an way to track each kmalloc's memory waste info, and
leverage the existing SLUB debug framework (specifically
SLUB_STORE_USER) to show its call stack of original allocation,
so that user can evaluate the waste situation, identify some hot
spots and optimize accordingly, for a better utilization of memory.

The waste info is integrated into existing interface:
'/sys/kernel/debug/slab/kmalloc-xx/alloc_traces', one example of
'kmalloc-4k' after boot is:

 126 ixgbe_alloc_q_vector+0xbe/0x830 [ixgbe] waste=233856/1856 age=280763/281414/282065 pid=1330 cpus=32 nodes=1
     __kmem_cache_alloc_node+0x11f/0x4e0
     __kmalloc_node+0x4e/0x140
     ixgbe_alloc_q_vector+0xbe/0x830 [ixgbe]
     ixgbe_init_interrupt_scheme+0x2ae/0xc90 [ixgbe]
     ixgbe_probe+0x165f/0x1d20 [ixgbe]
     local_pci_probe+0x78/0xc0
     work_for_cpu_fn+0x26/0x40
     ...

which means in 'kmalloc-4k' slab, there are 126 requests of
2240 bytes which got a 4KB space (wasting 1856 bytes each
and 233856 bytes in total), from ixgbe_alloc_q_vector().

And when system starts some real workload like multiple docker
instances, there could are more severe waste.

Feng Tang d71608a877 mm/slab_common: fix possible double free of kmem_cache
When doing slub_debug test, kfence's 'test_memcache_typesafe_by_rcu'
kunit test case cause a use-after-free error:

The cause is inside kmem_cache_destroy():

kmem_cache_destroy
    acquire lock/mutex
    shutdown_cache
        schedule_work(kmem_cache_release) (if RCU flag set)
    release lock/mutex
    kmem_cache_release (if RCU flag not set)

In some certain timing, the scheduled work could be run before
the next RCU flag checking, which can then get a wrong value
and lead to double kmem_cache_release().

Fix it by caching the RCU flag inside protected area, just like 'refcnt'

Waiman Long 0495e337b7 mm/slab_common: Deleting kobject in kmem_cache_destroy() without holding slab_mutex/cpu_hotplug_lock
A circular locking problem is reported by lockdep due to the following
circular locking dependency.

  +--> cpu_hotplug_lock --> slab_mutex --> kn->active --+
  |                                                     |
  +-----------------------------------------------------+

The forward cpu_hotplug_lock ==> slab_mutex ==> kn->active dependency
happens in

  kmem_cache_destroy():	cpus_read_lock(); mutex_lock(&slab_mutex);
  ==> sysfs_slab_unlink()
      ==> kobject_del()
          ==> kernfs_remove()
	      ==> __kernfs_remove()
	          ==> kernfs_drain(): rwsem_acquire(&kn->dep_map, ...);

The backward kn->active ==> cpu_hotplug_lock dependency happens in

  kernfs_fop_write_iter(): kernfs_get_active();
  ==> slab_attr_store()
      ==> cpu_partial_store()
          ==> flush_all(): cpus_read_lock()

One way to break this circular locking chain is to avoid holding
cpu_hotplug_lock and slab_mutex while deleting the kobject in
sysfs_slab_unlink() which should be equivalent to doing a write_lock
and write_unlock pair of the kn->active virtual lock.

Since the kobject structures are not protected by slab_mutex or the
cpu_hotplug_lock, we can certainly release those locks before doing
the delete operation.

Move sysfs_slab_unlink() and sysfs_slab_release() to the newly
created kmem_cache_release() and call it outside the slab_mutex &
cpu_hotplug_lock critical sections. There will be a slight delay
in the deletion of sysfs files if kmem_cache_release() is called
indirectly from a work function.

And then this patch does:
   - Do not pass pointer to struct kmem_cache to trace_kmalloc.
     gfp flag is enough to know if it's accounted or not.
   - Avoid dereferencing s->object_size and s->size when not using kmem_cache_alloc event.
   - Avoid dereferencing s->name in when not using kmem_cache_free event.
   - Adjust s->size to SLOB_UNITS(s->size) * SLOB_UNIT in SLOB

Despite its name, kmem_cache_alloc[_node]_trace() is hook for inlined
kmalloc. So rename it to kmalloc[_node]_trace().

Move its implementation to slab_common.c by using
__kmem_cache_alloc_node(), but keep CONFIG_TRACING=n varients to save a
function call when CONFIG_TRACING=n.

Use __assume_kmalloc_alignment for kmalloc[_node]_trace instead of
__assume_slab_alignement. Generally kmalloc has larger alignment
requirements.

allocation from this cache even if __GFP_ACCOUNT flag is not passed.
Unfortunately, at the moment this flag is not visible in ftrace output,
and this makes it difficult to analyze the accounted allocations.

This patch adds boolean "accounted" entry into trace output,
and set it to 'true' for calls used __GFP_ACCOUNT flag and
for allocations from caches marked with SLAB_ACCOUNT.
Set it to 'false' if accounting is disabled in configs.

 - Conversion of slub_debug stack traces to stackdepot, allowing more
   useful debugfs-based inspection for e.g. memory leak debugging.
   Allocation and free debugfs info now includes full traces and is
   sorted by the unique trace frequency.

   The stackdepot conversion was already attempted last year but
   reverted by ae14c63a9f. The memory overhead (while not actually
   enabled on boot) has been meanwhile solved by making the large
   stackdepot allocation dynamic. The xfstest issues haven't been
   reproduced on current kernel locally nor in -next, so the slab cache
   layout changes that originally made that bug manifest were probably
   not the root cause.

 - Refactoring of dma-kmalloc caches creation.

 - Trivial cleanups such as removal of unused parameters, fixes and
   clarifications of comments.

Peter Collingbourne d949a8155d mm: make minimum slab alignment a runtime property
When CONFIG_KASAN_HW_TAGS is enabled we currently increase the minimum
slab alignment to 16.  This happens even if MTE is not supported in
hardware or disabled via kasan=off, which creates an unnecessary memory
overhead in those cases.  Eliminate this overhead by making the minimum
slab alignment a runtime property and only aligning to 16 if KASAN is
enabled at runtime.

On a DragonBoard 845c (non-MTE hardware) with a kernel built with
CONFIG_KASAN_HW_TAGS, waiting for quiescence after a full Android boot I
see the following Slab measurements in /proc/meminfo (median of 3
reboots):
