13 years agotaskstats: use better ifdef for alignment
Jeff Mahoney [Thu, 13 Jan 2011 01:00:48 +0000 (17:00 -0800)]
taskstats: use better ifdef for alignment

Commit 4be2c95d ("taskstats: pad taskstats netlink response for aligment
issues on ia64") added a null field to align the taskstats structure but
the discussion centered around ia64.  The issue exists on other platforms
with inefficient unaligned access and adding them piecemeal would be an
unmaintainable mess.

This patch uses Dave Miller's suggestion of using a combination of
CONFIG_64BIT && !CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS to determine
whether alignment is needed.

Note that this will cause breakage on those platforms with applications
like iotop which had hard-coded offsets into the packet to access the
taskstats structure.

The message seen on systems without the alignment fixes looks like: kernel
unaligned access to 0xe000023879dca9bc, ip=0xa000000100133d10

The addresses may vary but resolve to locations inside __delayacct_add_tsk.

iotop makes what I'd call unreasonable assumptions about the contents of a
netlink genetlink packet containing generic attributes.  They're typed and
have headers that specify value lengths, so the client can (should)
identify and skip the ones the client doesn't understand.

The kernel, as of version 2.6.36, presented a packet like so:
+--------------------------------+
| genlmsghdr - 4 bytes           |
+--------------------------------+
| NLA header - 4 bytes           | /* Aggregate header */
+-+------------------------------+
| | NLA header - 4 bytes         | /* PID header */
| +------------------------------+
| | pid/tgid   - 4 bytes         |
| +------------------------------+
| | NLA header - 4 bytes         | /* stats header */
| + -----------------------------+ <- oops. aligned on 4 byte boundary
| | struct taskstats - 328 bytes |
+-+------------------------------+

The iotop code expects that the kernel will behave as it did then,
assuming that the packet format is set in stone.  The format is set in
stone, but the packet offsets are not.  There's nothing in the packet
format that guarantees that the packet will be sent in exactly the same
way.  The attribute contents are set (or versioned) and the aggregate
contents are set but they can be anywhere in the packet.

The issue here isn't that an unaligned structure gets passed to userspace,
it's that the NLA infrastructure has something of a weakness: The 4 byte
attribute header may force the payload to be unaligned.  The taskstats
structure is created at an unaligned location and then 64-bit values are
operated on inside the kernel, so the unaligned access warnings gets
spewed everywhere.

It's possible to use the unaligned access API to operate on the structure
in the kernel but it seems like a wasted effort to work around userspace
code that isn't following the packet format.  Any new additions would also
need the be worked around.  It's a maintenance nightmare.

The conclusion of the earlier discussion seemed to be "ok fine, if we have
to break it, don't break it on arches that don't have the problem." Dave
pointed out that the unaligned access problem doesn't only exist on ia64,
but also on other 64-bit arches that don't have efficient unaligned access
and it should be fixed there as well.  The committed version of the patch
and this addition keep with the conclusion of that discussion not to break
it unnecessarily, which the pid padding and the packet padding fixes did
do.  x86_64 and powerpc don't suffer this problem so they shouldn't suffer
the solution.  Other 64-bit architectures do and will, though.

vgacon: check for efi machine

It seems there is a small problem of VGA palette corruption on EFI
machine.  When the kernel initializes the architecture, it checks if the
machine is a EFI machine and assumes that a VGA console can exist.

When it initializes the console in vgacon_startup it checks if it can
really use the VGA console.  I think this is where a check is missing.
Currently, the function can fail if a VESA boot mode is detected but not if
a EFI boot mode was used.

Thus vgacon_startup() doesn't fail and initialize the video card for a real
VGA mode.  This function changes the first 16entries of the VGA palette.

When the efifb driver kicks in, the palette is not restored to default
ramp value, thus the 16 first entry remain in a modified state.  The
following patch prevent this corruption.

Turns out this is an arguable defect in the script.

The MAINTAINERS entry for mm is:

MEMORY MANAGEMENT

W: http://www.linux-mm.org

F: mm/

There's a maintainer entry, but no named individual, so the script doesn't
use git history via --git-fallback.

This is also a defect for MAINTAINERS with status entries marked "Orphan"
or "Odd fixes".

The script now checks a section for any "M:" entry and that an "S:" entry
is supported or maintained.  If both those conditions are not satisified,
use --git-fallback as appropriate.

Add the %pK printk format specifier and the /proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict
sysctl.

The %pK format specifier is designed to hide exposed kernel pointers,
specifically via /proc interfaces.  Exposing these pointers provides an
easy target for kernel write vulnerabilities, since they reveal the
locations of writable structures containing easily triggerable function
pointers.  The behavior of %pK depends on the kptr_restrict sysctl.

If kptr_restrict is set to 0, no deviation from the standard %p behavior
occurs.  If kptr_restrict is set to 1, the default, if the current user
(intended to be a reader via seq_printf(), etc.) does not have CAP_SYSLOG
(currently in the LSM tree), kernel pointers using %pK are printed as 0's.
 If kptr_restrict is set to 2, kernel pointers using %pK are printed as
0's regardless of privileges.  Replacing with 0's was chosen over the

"(nil)".

include/linux/kernel.h: abs(): fix handling of 32-bit unsigneds on 64-bit

Michal reports:

In the framebuffer subsystem the abs() macro is often used as a part of
the calculation of a Manhattan metric, which in turn is used as a measure
of similarity between video modes.  The arguments of abs() are sometimes
unsigned numbers.  This worked fine until commit a49c59c0 ("Make sure the
value in abs() does not get truncated if it is greater than 2^32:) , which
changed the definition of abs() to prevent truncation.  As a result of
this change, in the following piece of code:

u32 a = 0, b = 1;
u32 c = abs(a - b);

'c' will end up with a value of 0xffffffff instead of the expected 0x1.

A problem caused by this change and visible by the end user is that
framebuffer drivers relying on functions from modedb.c will fail to find
high resolution video modes similar to that explicitly requested by the
user if an exact match cannot be found (see e.g.

Fix this by special-casing `long' types within abs().

This patch reduces x86_64 code size a bit - drivers/video/uvesafb.o shrunk
by 15 bytes, presumably because it is doing abs() on 4-byte quantities,
and expanding those to 8-byte longs adds code.

testcase:

#define oldabs(x) ({ \
long __x = (x); \
(__x < 0) ? -__x : __x; \
})

#define newabs(x) ({ \
long ret; \
if (sizeof(x) == sizeof(long)) { \
long __x = (x); \
ret = (__x < 0) ? -__x : __x; \
} else { \
int __x = (x); \
ret = (__x < 0) ? -__x : __x; \
} \
ret; \
})

typedef unsigned int u32;

main()
{
u32 a = 0;
u32 b = 1;
u32 oldc = oldabs(a - b);
u32 newc = newabs(a - b);

printf("%u %u\n", oldc, newc);

kmsg_dump: constrain mtdoops and ramoops to perform their actions only for KMSG_DUMP_PANIC

This series aims to develop logging facility for enterprise use.

It is important to save kernel messages reliably on enterprise system
because they are helpful for diagnosing system.

This series add kmsg_dump() to the paths loosing kernel messages.  The use
case is the following.

[Use case of reboot/poweroff/halt/emergency_restart]

 My company has often experienced the followings in our support service.
 - Customer's system suddenly reboots.
 - Customers ask us to investigate the reason of the reboot.

We recognize the fact itself because boot messages remain in
/var/log/messages.  However, we can't investigate the reason why the
system rebooted, because the last messages don't remain.  And off course
we can't explain the reason.

We can solve above problem with this patch as follows.

 Case1: reboot with command
   - We can see "Restarting system with command:" or ""Restarting system.".

 Case2: halt with command
   - We can see "System halted.".

 Case3: poweroff with command
   - We can see " Power down.".

 Case4: emergency_restart with sysrq.
   - We can see "Sysrq:" outputted in __handle_sysrq().

 Case5: emergency_restart with softdog.
   - We can see "Initiating system reboot" in watchdog_fire().

So, we can distinguish the reason of reboot, poweroff, halt and emergency_restart.

If customer executed reboot command, you may think the customer should
know the fact.  However, they often claim they don't execute the command
when they rebooted system by mistake.

No message remains on the current Linux kernel, so we can't show the proof
to the customer.  This patch improves this situation.

This patch:

Alters mtdoops and ramoops to perform their actions only for
KMSG_DUMP_PANIC, KMSG_DUMP_OOPS and KMSG_DUMP_KEXEC because they would
like to log crashes only.
