Peter Zijlstra 73d786bd04 futex: Rework inconsistent rt_mutex/futex_q state
There is a weird state in the futex_unlock_pi() path when it interleaves
with a concurrent futex_lock_pi() at the point where it drops hb->lock.

In this case, it can happen that the rt_mutex wait_list and the futex_q
disagree on pending waiters, in particular rt_mutex will find no pending
waiters where futex_q thinks there are. In this case the rt_mutex unlock
code cannot assign an owner.

The futex side fixup code has to cleanup the inconsistencies with quite a
bunch of interesting corner cases.

Simplify all this by changing wake_futex_pi() to return -EAGAIN when this
situation occurs. This then gives the futex_lock_pi() code the opportunity
to continue and the retried futex_unlock_pi() will now observe a coherent
state.

The only problem is that this breaks RT timeliness guarantees. That
is, consider the following scenario:

  T1 and T2 are both pinned to CPU0. prio(T2) > prio(T1)

    CPU0

    T1
      lock_pi()
      queue_me()  <- Waiter is visible

    preemption

    T2
      unlock_pi()
	loops with -EAGAIN forever

Which is undesirable for PI primitives. Future patches will rectify
this.

Peter Zijlstra 734009e96d futex: Change locking rules
Currently futex-pi relies on hb->lock to serialize everything. But hb->lock
creates another set of problems, especially priority inversions on RT where
hb->lock becomes a rt_mutex itself.

The rt_mutex::wait_lock is the most obvious protection for keeping the
futex user space value and the kernel internal pi_state in sync.

Rework and document the locking so rt_mutex::wait_lock is held accross all
operations which modify the user space value and the pi state.

This allows to invoke rt_mutex_unlock() (including deboost) without holding
hb->lock as a next step.

Nothing yet relies on the new locking rules.

Peter Zijlstra 5293c2efda futex,rt_mutex: Provide futex specific rt_mutex API
Part of what makes futex_unlock_pi() intricate is that
rt_mutex_futex_unlock() -> rt_mutex_slowunlock() can drop
rt_mutex::wait_lock.

This means it cannot rely on the atomicy of wait_lock, which would be
preferred in order to not rely on hb->lock so much.

The reason rt_mutex_slowunlock() needs to drop wait_lock is because it can
race with the rt_mutex fastpath, however futexes have their own fast path.

Since futexes already have a bunch of separate rt_mutex accessors, complete
that set and implement a rt_mutex variant without fastpath for them.

Peter Zijlstra c236c8e95a futex: Fix potential use-after-free in FUTEX_REQUEUE_PI
While working on the futex code, I stumbled over this potential
use-after-free scenario. Dmitry triggered it later with syzkaller.

pi_mutex is a pointer into pi_state, which we drop the reference on in
unqueue_me_pi(). So any access to that pointer after that is bad.

Since other sites already do rt_mutex_unlock() with hb->lock held, see
for example futex_lock_pi(), simply move the unlock before
unqueue_me_pi().

Vegard Nossum f1f1007644 mm: add new mmgrab() helper
Apart from adding the helper function itself, the rest of the kernel is
converted mechanically using:

  git grep -l 'atomic_inc.*mm_count' | xargs sed -i 's/atomic_inc(&\(.*\)->mm_count);/mmgrab\(\1\);/'
  git grep -l 'atomic_inc.*mm_count' | xargs sed -i 's/atomic_inc(&\(.*\)\.mm_count);/mmgrab\(\&\1\);/'

This is needed for a later patch that hooks into the helper, but might
be a worthwhile cleanup on its own.

Yang Yang 25f71d1c3e futex: Move futex_init() to core_initcall
The UEVENT user mode helper is enabled before the initcalls are executed
and is available when the root filesystem has been mounted.

The user mode helper is triggered by device init calls and the executable
might use the futex syscall.

futex_init() is marked __initcall which maps to device_initcall, but there
is no guarantee that futex_init() is invoked _before_ the first device init
call which triggers the UEVENT user mode helper.

If the user mode helper uses the futex syscall before futex_init() then the
syscall crashes with a NULL pointer dereference because the futex subsystem
has not been initialized yet.

Move futex_init() to core_initcall so futexes are initialized before the
root filesystem is mounted and the usermode helper becomes available.

Thomas Gleixner 784bdf3bb6 futex: Assume all mappings are private on !MMU systems
To quote Rick why there is no need for shared mapping on !MMU systems:

|With MMU, shared futex keys need to identify the physical backing for
|a memory address because it may be mapped at different addresses in
|different processes (or even multiple times in the same process).
|Without MMU this cannot happen. You only have physical addresses. So
|the "private futex" behavior of using the virtual address as the key
|is always correct (for both shared and private cases) on nommu
|systems.

This patch disables the FLAGS_SHARED in a way that allows the compiler to
remove that code.

Mel Gorman 077fa7aed1 futex: Calculate the futex key based on a tail page for file-based futexes
Mike Galbraith reported that the LTP test case futex_wake04 was broken
by commit 65d8fc777f ("futex: Remove requirement for lock_page()
in get_futex_key()").

This test case uses futexes backed by hugetlbfs pages and so there is an
associated inode with a futex stored on such pages. The problem is that
the key is being calculated based on the head page index of the hugetlbfs
page and not the tail page.

Prior to the optimisation, the page lock was used to stabilise mappings and
pin the inode is file-backed which is overkill. If the page was a compound
page, the head page was automatically looked up as part of the page lock
operation but the tail page index was used to calculate the futex key.

After the optimisation, the compound head is looked up early and the page
lock is only relied upon to identify truncated pages, special pages or a
shmem page moving to swapcache. The head page is looked up because without
the page lock, special care has to be taken to pin the inode correctly.
However, the tail page is still required to calculate the futex key so
this patch records the tail page.

On vanilla 4.6, the output of the test case is;

futex_wake04    0  TINFO  :  Hugepagesize 2097152
futex_wake04    1  TFAIL  :  futex_wake04.c:126: Bug: wait_thread2 did not wake after 30 secs.

For example, the 32-bit version of "__copy_from_user_inatomic()" is
mostly the special cases for the constant size, and it's actually almost
never relevant.  Most users aren't actually using a constant size
anyway, and the few cases that do small constant copies are better off
just using __get_user() instead.

So get rid of the unnecessary complexity.

Sebastian Andrzej Siewior 89e9e66ba1 futex: Handle unlock_pi race gracefully
If userspace calls UNLOCK_PI unconditionally without trying the TID -> 0
transition in user space first then the user space value might not have the
waiters bit set. This opens the following race:

CPU0	    	      	    CPU1
uval = get_user(futex)
			    lock(hb)
lock(hb)
			    futex |= FUTEX_WAITERS
			    ....
			    unlock(hb)

cmpxchg(futex, uval, newval)

So the cmpxchg fails and returns -EINVAL to user space, which is wrong because
the futex value is valid.

To handle this (yes, yet another) corner case gracefully, check for a flag
change and retry.

Jianyu Zhan 29b75eb2d5 futex: Replace barrier() in unqueue_me() with READ_ONCE()
Commit e91467ecd1 ("bug in futex unqueue_me") introduced a barrier() in
unqueue_me() to prevent the compiler from rereading the lock pointer which
might change after a check for NULL.

Replace the barrier() with a READ_ONCE() for the following reasons:

1) READ_ONCE() is a weaker form of barrier() that affects only the specific
   load operation, while barrier() is a general compiler level memory barrier.
   READ_ONCE() was not available at the time when the barrier was added.

2) Aside of that READ_ONCE() is descriptive and self explainatory while a
   barrier without comment is not clear to the casual reader.

No functional change.

Mel Gorman 65d8fc777f futex: Remove requirement for lock_page() in get_futex_key()
When dealing with key handling for shared futexes, we can drastically reduce
the usage/need of the page lock. 1) For anonymous pages, the associated futex
object is the mm_struct which does not require the page lock. 2) For inode
based, keys, we can check under RCU read lock if the page mapping is still
valid and take reference to the inode. This just leaves one rare race that
requires the page lock in the slow path when examining the swapcache.

Additionally realtime users currently have a problem with the page lock being
contended for unbounded periods of time during futex operations.

Task A
     get_futex_key()
     lock_page()
    ---> preempted

Now any other task trying to lock that page will have to wait until
task A gets scheduled back in, which is an unbound time.

With this patch, we pretty much have a lockless futex_get_key().

Experiments show that this patch can boost/speedup the hashing of shared
futexes with the perf futex benchmarks (which is good for measuring such
change) by up to 45% when there are high (> 100) thread counts on a 60 core
Westmere. Lower counts are pretty much in the noise range or less than 10%,
but mid range can be seen at over 30% overall throughput (hash ops/sec).
This makes anon-mem shared futexes much closer to its private counterpart.

Davidlohr Bueso 8ad7b378d0 futex: Rename barrier references in ordering guarantees
Ingo suggested we rename how we reference barriers A and B
regarding futex ordering guarantees. This patch replaces,
for both barriers, MB (A) with smp_mb(); (A), such that:

 - We explicitly state that the barriers are SMP, and

 - We standardize how we reference these across futex.c
   helping readers follow what barrier does what and where.

Thomas Gleixner b4abf91047 rtmutex: Make wait_lock irq safe
Sasha reported a lockdep splat about a potential deadlock between RCU boosting
rtmutex and the posix timer it_lock.

CPU0					CPU1

rtmutex_lock(&rcu->rt_mutex)
  spin_lock(&rcu->rt_mutex.wait_lock)
					local_irq_disable()
					spin_lock(&timer->it_lock)
					spin_lock(&rcu->mutex.wait_lock)
--> Interrupt
    spin_lock(&timer->it_lock)

This is caused by the following code sequence on CPU1

     rcu_read_lock()
     x = lookup();
     if (x)
     	spin_lock_irqsave(&x->it_lock);
     rcu_read_unlock();
     return x;

We could fix that in the posix timer code by keeping rcu read locked across
the spinlocked and irq disabled section, but the above sequence is common and
there is no reason not to support it.

Taking rt_mutex.wait_lock irq safe prevents the deadlock.

Jann Horn caaee6234d ptrace: use fsuid, fsgid, effective creds for fs access checks
By checking the effective credentials instead of the real UID / permitted
capabilities, ensure that the calling process actually intended to use its
credentials.

To ensure that all ptrace checks use the correct caller credentials (e.g.
in case out-of-tree code or newly added code omits the PTRACE_MODE_*CREDS
flag), use two new flags and require one of them to be set.

The problem was that when a privileged task had temporarily dropped its
privileges, e.g.  by calling setreuid(0, user_uid), with the intent to
perform following syscalls with the credentials of a user, it still passed
ptrace access checks that the user would not be able to pass.

While an attacker should not be able to convince the privileged task to
perform a ptrace() syscall, this is a problem because the ptrace access
check is reused for things in procfs.

In particular, the following somewhat interesting procfs entries only rely
on ptrace access checks:

 /proc/$pid/stat - uses the check for determining whether pointers
     should be visible, useful for bypassing ASLR
 /proc/$pid/maps - also useful for bypassing ASLR
 /proc/$pid/cwd - useful for gaining access to restricted
     directories that contain files with lax permissions, e.g. in
     this scenario:
     lrwxrwxrwx root root /proc/13020/cwd -> /root/foobar
     drwx------ root root /root
     drwxr-xr-x root root /root/foobar
     -rw-r--r-- root root /root/foobar/secret

Therefore, on a system where a root-owned mode 6755 binary changes its
effective credentials as described and then dumps a user-specified file,
this could be used by an attacker to reveal the memory layout of root's
processes or reveal the contents of files he is not allowed to access
(through /proc/$pid/cwd).

Dominik Dingel 4a9e1cda27 mm: bring in additional flag for fixup_user_fault to signal unlock
During Jason's work with postcopy migration support for s390 a problem
regarding gmap faults was discovered.

The gmap code will call fixup_user_fault which will end up always in
handle_mm_fault.  Till now we never cared about retries, but as the
userfaultfd code kind of relies on it.  this needs some fix.

This patchset does not take care of the futex code.  I will now look
closer at this.

This patch (of 2):

With the introduction of userfaultfd, kvm on s390 needs fixup_user_fault
to pass in FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY and give feedback if during the
faulting we ever unlocked mmap_sem.

This patch brings in the logic to handle retries as well as it cleans up
the current documentation.  fixup_user_fault was not having the same
semantics as filemap_fault.  It never indicated if a retry happened and
so a caller wasn't able to handle that case.  So we now changed the
behaviour to always retry a locked mmap_sem.

Darren Hart 337f13046f futex: Allow FUTEX_CLOCK_REALTIME with FUTEX_WAIT op
While reviewing Michael Kerrisk's recent futex manpage update, I noticed
that we allow the FUTEX_CLOCK_REALTIME flag for FUTEX_WAIT_BITSET but
not for FUTEX_WAIT.

FUTEX_WAIT is treated as a simple version for FUTEX_WAIT_BITSET
internally (with a bitmask of FUTEX_BITSET_MATCH_ANY). As such, I cannot
come up with a reason for this exclusion for FUTEX_WAIT.

This change does modify the behavior of the futex syscall, changing a
call with FUTEX_WAIT | FUTEX_CLOCK_REALTIME from returning -ENOSYS, to be
equivalent to FUTEX_WAIT_BITSET | FUTEX_CLOCK_REALTIME with a bitset of
FUTEX_BITSET_MATCH_ANY.

Its a bit odd that debugfs_create_bool() takes 'u32 *' as an argument,
when all it needs is a boolean pointer.

It would be better to update this API to make it accept 'bool *'
instead, as that will make it more consistent and often more convenient.
Over that bool takes just a byte.

That required updates to all user sites as well, in the same commit
updating the API. regmap core was also using
debugfs_{read|write}_file_bool(), directly and variable types were
updated for that to be bool as well.

Rasmus Villemoes ac742d3718 futex: Force hot variables into a single cache line
futex_hash() references two global variables: the base pointer
futex_queues and the size of the array futex_hashsize. The latter is
marked __read_mostly, while the former is not, so they are likely to
end up very far from each other. This means that futex_hash() is
likely to encounter two cache misses.

We could mark futex_queues as __read_mostly as well, but that doesn't
guarantee they'll end up next to each other (and even if they do, they
may still end up in different cache lines). So put the two variables
in a small singleton struct with sufficient alignment and mark that as
__read_mostly.

Davidlohr Bueso ab51fbab39 futex: Fault/error injection capabilities
Although futexes are well known for being a royal pita,
we really have very little debugging capabilities - except
for relying on tglx's eye half the time.

By simply making use of the existing fault-injection machinery,
we can improve this situation, allowing generating artificial
uaddress faults and deadlock scenarios. Of course, when this is
disabled in production systems, the overhead for failure checks
is practically zero -- so this is very cheap at the same time.
Future work would be nice to now enhance trinity to make use of
this.

There is a special tunable 'ignore-private', which can filter
out private futexes. Given the tsk->make_it_fail filter and
this option, pi futexes can be narrowed down pretty closely.

Sebastian Andrzej Siewior 802ab58da7 futex: Lower the lock contention on the HB lock during wake up
wake_futex_pi() wakes the task before releasing the hash bucket lock
(HB). The first thing the woken up task usually does is to acquire the
lock which requires the HB lock. On SMP Systems this leads to blocking
on the HB lock which is released by the owner shortly after.
This patch rearranges the unlock path by first releasing the HB lock and
then waking up the task.

[ tglx: Fixed up the rtmutex unlock path ]

Davidlohr Bueso 1d0dcb3ad9 futex: Implement lockless wakeups
Given the overall futex architecture, any chance of reducing
hb->lock contention is welcome. In this particular case, using
wake-queues to enable lockless wakeups addresses very much real
world performance concerns, even cases of soft-lockups in cases
of large amounts of blocked tasks (which is not hard to find in
large boxes, using but just a handful of futex).

At the lowest level, this patch can reduce latency of a single thread
attempting to acquire hb->lock in highly contended scenarios by a
up to 2x. At lower counts of nr_wake there are no regressions,
confirming, of course, that the wake_q handling overhead is practically
non existent. For instance, while a fair amount of variation,
the extended pef-bench wakeup benchmark shows for a 20 core machine
the following avg per-thread time to wakeup its share of tasks:

	nr_thr	ms-before	ms-after
	16 	0.0590		0.0215
	32 	0.0396		0.0220
	48 	0.0417		0.0182
	64 	0.0536		0.0236
	80 	0.0414		0.0097
	96 	0.0672		0.0152

Naturally, this can cause spurious wakeups. However there is no core code
that cannot handle them afaict, and furthermore tglx does have the point
that other events can already trigger them anyway.

Oleg Nesterov a212946446 locking/futex: Check PF_KTHREAD rather than !p->mm to filter out kthreads
attach_to_pi_owner() checks p->mm to prevent attaching to kthreads and
this looks doubly wrong:

1. It should actually check PF_KTHREAD, kthread can do use_mm().

2. If this task is not kthread and it is actually the lock owner we can
   wrongly return -EPERM instead of -ESRCH or retry-if-EAGAIN.

   And note that this wrong EPERM is the likely case unless the exiting
   task is (auto)reaped quickly, we check ->mm before PF_EXITING.

Andy Lutomirski f56141e3e2 all arches, signal: move restart_block to struct task_struct
If an attacker can cause a controlled kernel stack overflow, overwriting
the restart block is a very juicy exploit target.  This is because the
restart_block is held in the same memory allocation as the kernel stack.

Moving the restart block to struct task_struct prevents this exploit by
making the restart_block harder to locate.

Note that there are other fields in thread_info that are also easy
targets, at least on some architectures.

It's also a decent simplification, since the restart code is more or less
identical on all architectures.

Michael Kerrisk 996636ddae futex: Fix argument handling in futex_lock_pi() calls
This patch fixes two separate buglets in calls to futex_lock_pi():

  * Eliminate unused 'detect' argument
  * Change unused 'timeout' argument of FUTEX_TRYLOCK_PI to NULL

The 'detect' argument of futex_lock_pi() seems never to have been
used (when it was included with the initial PI mutex implementation
in Linux 2.6.18, all checks against its value were disabled by
ANDing against 0 (i.e., if (detect... && 0)), and with
commit 778e9a9c3e, any mention of
this argument in futex_lock_pi() went way altogether. Its presence
now serves only to confuse readers of the code, by giving the
impression that the futex() FUTEX_LOCK_PI operation actually does
use the 'val' argument. This patch removes the argument.

The futex_lock_pi() call that corresponds to FUTEX_TRYLOCK_PI includes
'timeout' as one of its arguments. This misleads the reader into thinking
that the FUTEX_TRYLOCK_PI operation does employ timeouts for some sensible
purpose; but it does not.  Indeed, it cannot, because the checks at the
start of sys_futex() exclude FUTEX_TRYLOCK_PI from the set of operations
that do copy_from_user() on the timeout argument. So, in the
FUTEX_TRYLOCK_PI futex_lock_pi() call it would be simplest to change
'timeout' to 'NULL'. This patch does that.

Brian Silverman 30a6b8031f futex: Fix a race condition between REQUEUE_PI and task death
free_pi_state and exit_pi_state_list both clean up futex_pi_state's.
exit_pi_state_list takes the hb lock first, and most callers of
free_pi_state do too. requeue_pi doesn't, which means free_pi_state
can free the pi_state out from under exit_pi_state_list. For example:

task A                            |  task B
exit_pi_state_list                |
  pi_state =                      |
      curr->pi_state_list->next   |
                                  |  futex_requeue(requeue_pi=1)
                                  |    // pi_state is the same as
                                  |    // the one in task A
                                  |    free_pi_state(pi_state)
                                  |      list_del_init(&pi_state->list)
                                  |      kfree(pi_state)
  list_del_init(&pi_state->list)  |

Move the free_pi_state calls in requeue_pi to before it drops the hb
locks which it's already holding.

[ tglx: Removed a pointless free_pi_state() call and the hb->lock held
  	debugging. The latter comes via a seperate patch ]

Catalin Marinas 76835b0ebf futex: Ensure get_futex_key_refs() always implies a barrier
Commit b0c29f79ec (futexes: Avoid taking the hb->lock if there's
nothing to wake up) changes the futex code to avoid taking a lock when
there are no waiters. This code has been subsequently fixed in commit
11d4616bd0 (futex: revert back to the explicit waiter counting code).
Both the original commit and the fix-up rely on get_futex_key_refs() to
always imply a barrier.

However, for private futexes, none of the cases in the switch statement
of get_futex_key_refs() would be hit and the function completes without
a memory barrier as required before checking the "waiters" in
futex_wake() -> hb_waiters_pending(). The consequence is a race with a
thread waiting on a futex on another CPU, allowing the waker thread to
read "waiters == 0" while the waiter thread to have read "futex_val ==
locked" (in kernel).

Without this fix, the problem (user space deadlocks) can be seen with
Android bionic's mutex implementation on an arm64 multi-cluster system.

Thomas Gleixner 13c42c2f43 futex: Unlock hb->lock in futex_wait_requeue_pi() error path
futex_wait_requeue_pi() calls futex_wait_setup(). If
futex_wait_setup() succeeds it returns with hb->lock held and
preemption disabled. Now the sanity check after this does:

        if (match_futex(&q.key, &key2)) {
	   	ret = -EINVAL;
		goto out_put_keys;
	}

which releases the keys but does not release hb->lock.

So we happily return to user space with hb->lock held and therefor
preemption disabled.

Unlock hb->lock before taking the exit route.

Thomas Gleixner af54d6a1c3 futex: Simplify futex_lock_pi_atomic() and make it more robust
futex_lock_pi_atomic() is a maze of retry hoops and loops.

Reduce it to simple and understandable states:

First step is to lookup existing waiters (state) in the kernel.

If there is an existing waiter, validate it and attach to it.

If there is no existing waiter, check the user space value

If the TID encoded in the user space value is 0, take over the futex
preserving the owner died bit.

If the TID encoded in the user space value is != 0, lookup the owner
task, validate it and attach to it.

Reduces text size by 128 bytes on x8664.

kernel internal state around associated to the owner task. 

For robustness sake, lookup first whether there are waiters on the
futex. If there are waiters, wake the top priority waiter with all the
proper sanity checks applied.

If there are no waiters, do the atomic release. We do not have to
preserve the waiters bit in this case, because a potentially incoming
waiter is blocked on the hb->lock and will acquire the futex
atomically. We neither have to preserve the owner died bit. The caller
is the owner and it was supposed to cleanup the mess.

Thomas Gleixner 54a217887a futex: Make lookup_pi_state more robust
The current implementation of lookup_pi_state has ambigous handling of
the TID value 0 in the user space futex.  We can get into the kernel
even if the TID value is 0, because either there is a stale waiters bit
or the owner died bit is set or we are called from the requeue_pi path
or from user space just for fun.

The current code avoids an explicit sanity check for pid = 0 in case
that kernel internal state (waiters) are found for the user space
address.  This can lead to state leakage and worse under some
circumstances.

Handle the cases explicit:

       Waiter | pi_state | pi->owner | uTID      | uODIED | ?

  [1]  NULL   | ---      | ---       | 0         | 0/1    | Valid
  [2]  NULL   | ---      | ---       | >0        | 0/1    | Valid

  [3]  Found  | NULL     | --        | Any       | 0/1    | Invalid

  [4]  Found  | Found    | NULL      | 0         | 1      | Valid
  [5]  Found  | Found    | NULL      | >0        | 1      | Invalid

  [6]  Found  | Found    | task      | 0         | 1      | Valid

  [7]  Found  | Found    | NULL      | Any       | 0      | Invalid

  [8]  Found  | Found    | task      | ==taskTID | 0/1    | Valid
  [9]  Found  | Found    | task      | 0         | 0      | Invalid
  [10] Found  | Found    | task      | !=taskTID | 0/1    | Invalid

 [1] Indicates that the kernel can acquire the futex atomically. We
     came came here due to a stale FUTEX_WAITERS/FUTEX_OWNER_DIED bit.

 [2] Valid, if TID does not belong to a kernel thread. If no matching
     thread is found then it indicates that the owner TID has died.

 [3] Invalid. The waiter is queued on a non PI futex

 [4] Valid state after exit_robust_list(), which sets the user space
     value to FUTEX_WAITERS | FUTEX_OWNER_DIED.

 [5] The user space value got manipulated between exit_robust_list()
     and exit_pi_state_list()

 [6] Valid state after exit_pi_state_list() which sets the new owner in
     the pi_state but cannot access the user space value.

 [7] pi_state->owner can only be NULL when the OWNER_DIED bit is set.

 [8] Owner and user space value match

 [9] There is no transient state which sets the user space TID to 0
     except exit_robust_list(), but this is indicated by the
     FUTEX_OWNER_DIED bit. See [4]

[10] There is no transient state which leaves owner and user space
     TID out of sync.

Thomas Gleixner b3eaa9fc5c futex: Validate atomic acquisition in futex_lock_pi_atomic()
We need to protect the atomic acquisition in the kernel against rogue

Verify whether the futex has waiters associated with kernel state.  If
it has, return -EINVAL.  The state is corrupted already, so no point in
cleaning it up.  Subsequent calls will fail as well.  Not our problem.

This change brings futex_requeue() in line with futex_wait_requeue_pi()
which performs the same check as per commit 6f7b0a2a5c ("futex: Forbid

Thomas Gleixner 866293ee54 futex: Add another early deadlock detection check
Dave Jones trinity syscall fuzzer exposed an issue in the deadlock
detection code of rtmutex:
  http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20140429151655.GA14277@redhat.com

That underlying issue has been fixed with a patch to the rtmutex code,
but the futex code must not call into rtmutex in that case because
    - it can detect that issue early
    - it avoids a different and more complex fixup for backing out

If the user space variable got manipulated to 0x80000000 which means
no lock holder, but the waiters bit set and an active pi_state in the
kernel is found we can figure out the recursive locking issue by
looking at the pi_state owner. If that is the current task, then we
can safely return -EDEADLK.

The check should have been added in commit 59fa62451 (futex: Handle
futex_pi OWNER_DIED take over correctly) already, but I did not see
the above issue caused by user space manipulation back then.

Commits 11d4616bd0 ("futex: revert back to the explicit waiter
counting code") and 69cd9eba38 ("futex: avoid race between requeue and
wake") changed some of the finer details of how we think about futexes.
One was a late fix and the other a consequence of overlooking the whole
requeuing logic.

The first change caused our documentation to be incorrect, and the
second made us aware that we need to explicitly add more details to it.

Linus Torvalds 69cd9eba38 futex: avoid race between requeue and wake
Jan Stancek reported:
 "pthread_cond_broadcast/4-1.c testcase from openposix testsuite (LTP)
  occasionally fails, because some threads fail to wake up.

  Testcase creates 5 threads, which are all waiting on same condition.
  Main thread then calls pthread_cond_broadcast() without holding mutex,
  which calls:

      futex(uaddr1, FUTEX_CMP_REQUEUE_PRIVATE, 1, 2147483647, uaddr2, ..)

  This immediately wakes up single thread A, which unlocks mutex and
  tries to wake up another thread:

      futex(uaddr2, FUTEX_WAKE_PRIVATE, 1)

  If thread A manages to call futex_wake() before any waiters are
  requeued for uaddr2, no other thread is woken up"

The ordering constraints for the hash bucket waiter counting are that
the waiter counts have to be incremented _before_ getting the spinlock
(because the spinlock acts as part of the memory barrier), but the
"requeue" operation didn't honor those rules, and nobody had even
thought about that case.

This fairly simple patch just increments the waiter count for the target
hash bucket (hb2) when requeing a futex before taking the locks.  It
then decrements them again after releasing the lock - the code that
actually moves the futex(es) between hash buckets will do the additional
required waiter count housekeeping.

Linus Torvalds 11d4616bd0 futex: revert back to the explicit waiter counting code
Srikar Dronamraju reports that commit b0c29f79ec ("futexes: Avoid
taking the hb->lock if there's nothing to wake up") causes java threads
getting stuck on futexes when runing specjbb on a power7 numa box.

The cause appears to be that the powerpc spinlocks aren't using the same
ticket lock model that we use on x86 (and other) architectures, which in
turn result in the "spin_is_locked()" test in hb_waiters_pending()
occasionally reporting an unlocked spinlock even when there are pending
waiters.

So this reinstates Davidlohr Bueso's original explicit waiter counting
code, which I had convinced Davidlohr to drop in favor of figuring out
the pending waiters by just using the existing state of the spinlock and
the wait queue.

Peter Zijlstra fb00aca474 rtmutex: Turn the plist into an rb-tree
Turn the pi-chains from plist to rb-tree, in the rt_mutex code,
and provide a proper comparison function for -deadline and
-priority tasks.

This is done mainly because:
 - classical prio field of the plist is just an int, which might
   not be enough for representing a deadline;
 - manipulating such a list would become O(nr_deadline_tasks),
   which might be to much, as the number of -deadline task increases.

Therefore, an rb-tree is used, and tasks are queued in it according
to the following logic:
 - among two -priority (i.e., SCHED_BATCH/OTHER/RR/FIFO) tasks, the
   one with the higher (lower, actually!) prio wins;
 - among a -priority and a -deadline task, the latter always wins;
 - among two -deadline tasks, the one with the earliest deadline
   wins.

Queueing and dequeueing functions are changed accordingly, for both
the list of a task's pi-waiters and the list of tasks blocked on
a pi-lock.

Davidlohr Bueso b0c29f79ec futexes: Avoid taking the hb->lock if there's nothing to wake up
In futex_wake() there is clearly no point in taking the hb->lock
if we know beforehand that there are no tasks to be woken. While
the hash bucket's plist head is a cheap way of knowing this, we
cannot rely 100% on it as there is a racy window between the
futex_wait call and when the task is actually added to the
plist. To this end, we couple it with the spinlock check as
tasks trying to enter the critical region are most likely
potential waiters that will be added to the plist, thus
preventing tasks sleeping forever if wakers don't acknowledge
all possible waiters.

Furthermore, the futex ordering guarantees are preserved,
ensuring that waiters either observe the changed user space
value before blocking or is woken by a concurrent waker. For
wakers, this is done by relying on the barriers in
get_futex_key_refs() -- for archs that do not have implicit mb
in atomic_inc(), we explicitly add them through a new
futex_get_mm function. For waiters we rely on the fact that
spin_lock calls already update the head counter, so spinners
are visible even if the lock hasn't been acquired yet.

For more details please refer to the updated comments in the
code and related discussion:

Davidlohr Bueso a52b89ebb6 futexes: Increase hash table size for better performance
Currently, the futex global hash table suffers from its fixed,
smallish (for today's standards) size of 256 entries, as well as
its lack of NUMA awareness. Large systems, using many futexes,
can be prone to high amounts of collisions; where these futexes
hash to the same bucket and lead to extra contention on the same
hb->lock. Furthermore, cacheline bouncing is a reality when we
have multiple hb->locks residing on the same cacheline and
different futexes hash to adjacent buckets.

This patch keeps the current static size of 16 entries for small
systems, or otherwise, 256 * ncpus (or larger as we need to
round the number to a power of 2). Note that this number of CPUs
accounts for all CPUs that can ever be available in the system,
taking into consideration things like hotpluging. While we do
impose extra overhead at bootup by making the hash table larger,
this is a one time thing, and does not shadow the benefits of
this patch.

Furthermore, as suggested by tglx, by cache aligning the hash
buckets we can avoid access across cacheline boundaries and also
avoid massive cache line bouncing if multiple cpus are hammering
away at different hash buckets which happen to reside in the
same cache line.

Also, similar to other core kernel components (pid, dcache,
tcp), by using alloc_large_system_hash() we benefit from its
NUMA awareness and thus the table is distributed among the nodes
instead of in a single one.

For a custom microbenchmark that pounds on the uaddr hashing --
making the wait path fail at futex_wait_setup() returning
-EWOULDBLOCK for large amounts of futexes, we can see the
following benefits on a 80-core, 8-socket 1Tb server:

Linus Torvalds 5cdec2d833 futex: move user address verification up to common code
When debugging the read-only hugepage case, I was confused by the fact
that get_futex_key() did an access_ok() only for the non-shared futex
case, since the user address checking really isn't in any way specific
to the private key handling.

Now, it turns out that the shared key handling does effectively do the
equivalent checks inside get_user_pages_fast() (it doesn't actually
check the address range on x86, but does check the page protections for
being a user page).  So it wasn't actually a bug, but the fact that we
treat the address differently for private and shared futexes threw me
for a loop.

Just move the check up, so that it gets done for both cases.  Also, use
the 'rw' parameter for the type, even if it doesn't actually matter any
more (it's a historical artifact of the old racy i386 "page faults from
kernel space don't check write protections").

Avoid waking up every thread sleeping in a futex_wait call during
suspend and resume by calling a freezable blocking call.  Previous
patches modified the freezer to avoid sending wakeups to threads
that are blocked in freezable blocking calls.

This call was selected to be converted to a freezable call because
it doesn't hold any locks or release any resources when interrupted
that might be needed by another freezing task or a kernel driver
during suspend, and is a common site where idle userspace tasks are
blocked.

Zhang Yi 13d60f4b6a futex: Take hugepages into account when generating futex_key
The futex_keys of process shared futexes are generated from the page
offset, the mapping host and the mapping index of the futex user space
address. This should result in an unique identifier for each futex.

Though this is not true when futexes are located in different subpages
of an hugepage. The reason is, that the mapping index for all those
futexes evaluates to the index of the base page of the hugetlbfs
mapping. So a futex at offset 0 of the hugepage mapping and another
one at offset PAGE_SIZE of the same hugepage mapping have identical
futex_keys. This happens because the futex code blindly uses
page->index.

Steps to reproduce the bug:

1. Map a file from hugetlbfs. Initialize pthread_mutex1 at offset 0
   and pthread_mutex2 at offset PAGE_SIZE of the hugetlbfs
   mapping.

   The mutexes must be initialized as PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED because
   PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE mutexes are not affected by this issue as
   their keys solely depend on the user space address.

2. Lock mutex1 and mutex2

3. Create thread1 and in the thread function lock mutex1, which
   results in thread1 blocking on the locked mutex1.

4. Create thread2 and in the thread function lock mutex2, which
   results in thread2 blocking on the locked mutex2.

5. Unlock mutex2. Despite the fact that mutex2 got unlocked, thread2
   still blocks on mutex2 because the futex_key points to mutex1.

To solve this issue we need to take the normal page index of the page
which contains the futex into account, if the futex is in an hugetlbfs
mapping. In other words, we calculate the normal page mapping index of
the subpage in the hugetlbfs mapping.

Mappings which are not based on hugetlbfs are not affected and still
use page->index.

Thanks to Mel Gorman who provided a patch for adding proper evaluation
functions to the hugetlbfs code to avoid exposing hugetlbfs specific
details to the futex code.

Darren Hart aa10990e02 futex: avoid wake_futex() for a PI futex_q
Dave Jones reported a bug with futex_lock_pi() that his trinity test
exposed.  Sometime between queue_me() and taking the q.lock_ptr, the
lock_ptr became NULL, resulting in a crash.

While futex_wake() is careful to not call wake_futex() on futex_q's with
a pi_state or an rt_waiter (which are either waiting for a
futex_unlock_pi() or a PI futex_requeue()), futex_wake_op() and
futex_requeue() do not perform the same test.

Update futex_wake_op() and futex_requeue() to test for q.pi_state and
q.rt_waiter and abort with -EINVAL if detected.  To ensure any future
breakage is caught, add a WARN() to wake_futex() if the same condition
is true.

This fix has seen 3 hours of testing with "trinity -c futex" on an
x86_64 VM with 4 CPUS.

Thomas Gleixner 59fa624519 futex: Handle futex_pi OWNER_DIED take over correctly
Siddhesh analyzed a failure in the take over of pi futexes in case the
owner died and provided a workaround.
See: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14076

The detailed problem analysis shows:

Futex F is initialized with PTHREAD_PRIO_INHERIT and
PTHREAD_MUTEX_ROBUST_NP attributes.

T1 lock_futex_pi(F);

T2 lock_futex_pi(F);
   --> T2 blocks on the futex and creates pi_state which is associated
       to T1.

T1 exits
   --> exit_robust_list() runs
       --> Futex F userspace value TID field is set to 0 and
           FUTEX_OWNER_DIED bit is set.

T3 lock_futex_pi(F);
   --> Succeeds due to the check for F's userspace TID field == 0
   --> Claims ownership of the futex and sets its own TID into the
       userspace TID field of futex F
   --> returns to user space

T1 --> exit_pi_state_list()
       --> Transfers pi_state to waiter T2 and wakes T2 via
       	   rt_mutex_unlock(&pi_state->mutex)

T2 --> acquires pi_state->mutex and gains real ownership of the
       pi_state
   --> Claims ownership of the futex and sets its own TID into the
       userspace TID field of futex F
   --> returns to user space

T3 --> observes inconsistent state

This problem is independent of UP/SMP, preemptible/non preemptible
kernels, or process shared vs. private. The only difference is that
certain configurations are more likely to expose it.

So as Siddhesh correctly analyzed the following check in
futex_lock_pi_atomic() is the culprit:

	if (unlikely(ownerdied || !(curval & FUTEX_TID_MASK))) {

We check the userspace value for a TID value of 0 and take over the
futex unconditionally if that's true.

AFAICT this check is there as it is correct for a different corner
case of futexes: the WAITERS bit became stale.

Now the proposed change

-	if (unlikely(ownerdied || !(curval & FUTEX_TID_MASK))) {
+       if (unlikely(ownerdied ||
+                       !(curval & (FUTEX_TID_MASK | FUTEX_WAITERS)))) {

solves the problem, but it's not obvious why and it wreckages the
"stale WAITERS bit" case.

What happens is, that due to the WAITERS bit being set (T2 is blocked
on that futex) it enforces T3 to go through lookup_pi_state(), which
in the above case returns an existing pi_state and therefor forces T3
to legitimately fight with T2 over the ownership of the pi_state (via
pi_state->mutex). Probelm solved!

Though that does not work for the "WAITERS bit is stale" problem
because if lookup_pi_state() does not find existing pi_state it
returns -ERSCH (due to TID == 0) which causes futex_lock_pi() to
return -ESRCH to user space because the OWNER_DIED bit is not set.

Now there is a different solution to that problem. Do not look at the
user space value at all and enforce a lookup of possibly available
pi_state. If pi_state can be found, then the new incoming locker T3
blocks on that pi_state and legitimately races with T2 to acquire the
rt_mutex and the pi_state and therefor the proper ownership of the
user space futex.

lookup_pi_state() has the correct order of checks. It first tries to
find a pi_state associated with the user space futex and only if that
fails it checks for futex TID value = 0. If no pi_state is available
nothing can create new state at that point because this happens with
the hash bucket lock held.

So the above scenario changes to:

T1 lock_futex_pi(F);

T2 lock_futex_pi(F);
   --> T2 blocks on the futex and creates pi_state which is associated
       to T1.

T1 exits
   --> exit_robust_list() runs
       --> Futex F userspace value TID field is set to 0 and
           FUTEX_OWNER_DIED bit is set.

T3 lock_futex_pi(F);
   --> Finds pi_state and blocks on pi_state->rt_mutex

T1 --> exit_pi_state_list()
       --> Transfers pi_state to waiter T2 and wakes it via
       	   rt_mutex_unlock(&pi_state->mutex)

T2 --> acquires pi_state->mutex and gains ownership of the pi_state
   --> Claims ownership of the futex and sets its own TID into the
       userspace TID field of futex F
   --> returns to user space

This covers all gazillion points on which T3 might come in between
T1's exit_robust_list() clearing the TID field and T2 fixing it up. It
also solves the "WAITERS bit stale" problem by forcing the take over.

Another benefit of changing the code this way is that it makes it less
dependent on untrusted user space values and therefor minimizes the
possible wreckage which might be inflicted.

As usual after staring for too long at the futex code my brain hurts
so much that I really want to ditch that whole optimization of
avoiding the syscall for the non contended case for PI futexes and rip
out the maze of corner case handling code. Unfortunately we can't as
user space relies on that existing behaviour, but at least thinking

Darren Hart 6f7b0a2a5c futex: Forbid uaddr == uaddr2 in futex_wait_requeue_pi()
If uaddr == uaddr2, then we have broken the rule of only requeueing
from a non-pi futex to a pi futex with this call. If we attempt this,
as the trinity test suite manages to do, we miss early wakeups as
q.key is equal to key2 (because they are the same uaddr). We will then
attempt to dereference the pi_mutex (which would exist had the futex_q
been properly requeued to a pi futex) and trigger a NULL pointer
dereference.

Kees Cook bdbb776f88 futex: Do not leak robust list to unprivileged process
It was possible to extract the robust list head address from a setuid
process if it had used set_robust_list(), allowing an ASLR info leak. This
changes the permission checks to be the same as those used for similar
info that comes out of /proc.

Running a setuid program that uses robust futexes would have had:
  cred->euid != pcred->euid
  cred->euid == pcred->uid
so the old permissions check would allow it. I'm not aware of any setuid
programs that use robust futexes, so this is just a preventative measure.

(This patch is based on changes from grsecurity.)

Hugh Dickins e6780f7243 futex: Fix uninterruptible loop due to gate_area
It was found (by Sasha) that if you use a futex located in the gate
area we get stuck in an uninterruptible infinite loop, much like the
ZERO_PAGE issue.

While looking at this problem, PeterZ realized you'll get into similar
trouble when hitting any install_special_pages() mapping.  And are there
still drivers setting up their own special mmaps without page->mapping,
and without special VM or pte flags to make get_user_pages fail?

In most cases, if page->mapping is NULL, we do not need to retry at all:
Linus points out that even /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches poses no problem,
because it ends up using remove_mapping(), which takes care not to
interfere when the page reference count is raised.

But there is still one case which does need a retry: if memory pressure
called shmem_writepage in between get_user_pages_fast dropping page
table lock and our acquiring page lock, then the page gets switched from
filecache to swapcache (and ->mapping set to NULL) whatever the refcount.
Fault it back in to get the page->mapping needed for key->shared.inode.

Shawn Bohrer 9ea71503a8 futex: Fix regression with read only mappings
commit 7485d0d375 (futexes: Remove rw
parameter from get_futex_key()) in 2.6.33 fixed two problems:  First, It
prevented a loop when encountering a ZERO_PAGE. Second, it fixed RW
MAP_PRIVATE futex operations by forcing the COW to occur by
unconditionally performing a write access get_user_pages_fast() to get
the page.  The commit also introduced a user-mode regression in that it
broke futex operations on read-only memory maps.  For example, this
breaks workloads that have one or more reader processes doing a
FUTEX_WAIT on a futex within a read only shared file mapping, and a
writer processes that has a writable mapping issuing the FUTEX_WAKE.

This fixes the regression for valid futex operations on RO mappings by
trying a RO get_user_pages_fast() when the RW get_user_pages_fast()
fails. This change makes it necessary to also check for invalid use
cases, such as anonymous RO mappings (which can never change) and the
ZERO_PAGE which the commit referenced above was written to address.

This patch does restore the original behavior with RO MAP_PRIVATE
mappings, which have inherent user-mode usage problems and don't really
make sense.  With this patch performing a FUTEX_WAIT within a RO
MAP_PRIVATE mapping will be successfully woken provided another process
updates the region of the underlying mapped file.  However, the mmap()
man page states that for a MAP_PRIVATE mapping:

  It is unspecified whether changes made to the file after
  the mmap() call are visible in the mapped region.

So user-mode users attempting to use futex operations on RO MAP_PRIVATE
mappings are depending on unspecified behavior.  Additionally a
RO MAP_PRIVATE mapping could fail to wake up in the following case.

  Thread-A: call futex(FUTEX_WAIT, memory-region-A).
            get_futex_key() return inode based key.
            sleep on the key
  Thread-B: call mprotect(PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, memory-region-A)
  Thread-B: write memory-region-A.
            COW happen. This process's memory-region-A become related
            to new COWed private (ie PageAnon=1) page.
  Thread-B: call futex(FUETX_WAKE, memory-region-A).
            get_futex_key() return mm based key.
            IOW, we fail to wake up Thread-A.

Once again doing something like this is just silly and users who do
something like this get what they deserve.

While RO MAP_PRIVATE mappings are nonsensical, checking for a private
mapping requires walking the vmas and was deemed too costly to avoid a
userspace hang.

This Patch is based on Peter Zijlstra's initial patch with modifications to
only allow RO mappings for futex operations that need VERIFY_READ access.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt 2efaca927f mm/futex: fix futex writes on archs with SW tracking of dirty & young
I haven't reproduced it myself but the fail scenario is that on such
machines (notably ARM and some embedded powerpc), if you manage to hit
that futex path on a writable page whose dirty bit has gone from the PTE,
you'll livelock inside the kernel from what I can tell.

It will go in a loop of trying the atomic access, failing, trying gup to
"fix it up", getting succcess from gup, go back to the atomic access,
failing again because dirty wasn't fixed etc...

So I think you essentially hang in the kernel.

The scenario is probably rare'ish because affected architecture are
embedded and tend to not swap much (if at all) so we probably rarely hit
the case where dirty is missing or young is missing, but I think Shan has
a piece of SW that can reliably reproduce it using a shared writable
mapping & fork or something like that.

On archs who use SW tracking of dirty & young, a page without dirty is
effectively mapped read-only and a page without young unaccessible in the
PTE.

Additionally, some architectures might lazily flush the TLB when relaxing
write protection (by doing only a local flush), and expect a fault to
invalidate the stale entry if it's still present on another processor.

The futex code assumes that if the "in_atomic()" access -EFAULT's, it can
"fix it up" by causing get_user_pages() which would then be equivalent to
taking the fault.

However that isn't the case.  get_user_pages() will not call
handle_mm_fault() in the case where the PTE seems to have the right
permissions, regardless of the dirty and young state.  It will eventually
update those bits ...  in the struct page, but not in the PTE.

Additionally, it will not handle the lazy TLB flushing that can be
required by some architectures in the fault case.

Basically, gup is the wrong interface for the job.  The patch provides a
more appropriate one which boils down to just calling handle_mm_fault()
since what we are trying to do is simulate a real page fault.

The futex code currently attempts to write to user memory within a
pagefault disabled section, and if that fails, tries to fix it up using
get_user_pages().

This doesn't work on archs where the dirty and young bits are maintained
by software, since they will gate access permission in the TLB, and will
not be updated by gup().

In addition, there's an expectation on some archs that a spurious write
fault triggers a local TLB flush, and that is missing from the picture as
well.

I decided that adding those "features" to gup() would be too much for this
already too complex function, and instead added a new simpler
fixup_user_fault() which is essentially a wrapper around handle_mm_fault()
which the futex code can call.

Thomas Gleixner 6e0aa9f8a8 futex: Deobfuscate handle_futex_death()
handle_futex_death() uses futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() without
disabling page faults. That's ok, but totally non obvious.

We don't hold locks so we actually can and want to fault here, because
the get_user() before futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() does not
guarantee a R/W mapping.

We could just add a big fat comment to explain this, but actually
changing the code so that the functionality is entirely clear is
better.

Use the helper function which disables page faults around the
futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() and handle a fault with a call to
fault_in_user_writeable() as all other places in the futex code do as
well.

Lai Jiangshan 017f2b239d futex,plist: Remove debug lock assignment from plist_node
The original code uses &plist_node->plist as the fake head of
the priority list for plist_del(), these debug locks in
the fake head are needed for CONFIG_DEBUG_PI_LIST.

But now we always pass the real head to plist_del(), the debug locks
in plist_node will not be used, so we remove these assignments.

Lai Jiangshan 2e12978a9f futex,plist: Pass the real head of the priority list to plist_del()
Some plist_del()s in kernel/futex.c are passed a faked head of the
priority list.

It does not fail because the current code does not require the real head
in plist_del(). The current code of plist_del() just uses the head for checking,
so it will not cause a bad result even when we use a faked head.

But it is undocumented usage:

/**
 * plist_del - Remove a @node from plist.
 *
 * @node:	&struct plist_node pointer - entry to be removed
 * @head:	&struct plist_head pointer - list head
 */

The document says that the @head is the "list head" head of the priority list.

In futex code, several places use "plist_del(&q->list, &q->list.plist);",
they pass a fake head. We need to fix them all.

Thanks to Darren Hart for many suggestions.

Michel Lespinasse 37a9d912b2 futex: Sanitize cmpxchg_futex_value_locked API
The cmpxchg_futex_value_locked API was funny in that it returned either
the original, user-exposed futex value OR an error code such as -EFAULT.
This was confusing at best, and could be a source of livelocks in places
that retry the cmpxchg_futex_value_locked after trying to fix the issue
by running fault_in_user_writeable().
    
This change makes the cmpxchg_futex_value_locked API more similar to the
get_futex_value_locked one, returning an error code and updating the
original value through a reference argument.

Lai Jiangshan 8161239a8b rtmutex: Simplify PI algorithm and make highest prio task get lock
In current rtmutex, the pending owner may be boosted by the tasks
in the rtmutex's waitlist when the pending owner is deboosted
or a task in the waitlist is boosted. This boosting is unrelated,
because the pending owner does not really take the rtmutex.
It is not reasonable.

Example.

time1:
A(high prio) onwers the rtmutex.
B(mid prio) and C (low prio) in the waitlist.

time2
A release the lock, B becomes the pending owner
A(or other high prio task) continues to run. B's prio is lower
than A, so B is just queued at the runqueue.

time3
A or other high prio task sleeps, but we have passed some time
The B and C's prio are changed in the period (time2 ~ time3)
due to boosting or deboosting. Now C has the priority higher
than B. ***Is it reasonable that C has to boost B and help B to
get the rtmutex?

NO!! I think, it is unrelated/unneed boosting before B really
owns the rtmutex. We should give C a chance to beat B and
win the rtmutex.

This is the motivation of this patch. This patch *ensures*
only the top waiter or higher priority task can take the lock.

How?
1) we don't dequeue the top waiter when unlock, if the top waiter
   is changed, the old top waiter will fail and go to sleep again.
2) when requiring lock, it will get the lock when the lock is not taken and:
   there is no waiter OR higher priority than waiters OR it is top waiter.
3) In any time, the top waiter is changed, the top waiter will be woken up.

The algorithm is much simpler than before, no pending owner, no
boosting for pending owner.

Other advantage of this patch:
1) The states of a rtmutex are reduced a half, easier to read the code.
2) the codes become shorter.
3) top waiter is not dequeued until it really take the lock:
   they will retain FIFO when it is stolen.

Not advantage nor disadvantage
1) Even we may wakeup multiple waiters(any time when top waiter changed),
   we hardly cause "thundering herd",
   the number of wokenup task is likely 1 or very little.
2) two APIs are changed.
   rt_mutex_owner() will not return pending owner, it will return NULL when
                    the top waiter is going to take the lock.
   rt_mutex_next_owner() always return the top waiter.
	                 will not return NULL if we have waiters
                         because the top waiter is not dequeued.

   I have fixed the code that use these APIs.

need updated after this patch is accepted

2) the testcase scripts/rt-tester/t4-l2-pi-deboost.tst

Andrea Arcangeli a5b338f2b0 thp: update futex compound knowledge
Futex code is smarter than most other gup_fast O_DIRECT code and knows
about the compound internals.  However now doing a put_page(head_page)
will not release the pin on the tail page taken by gup-fast, leading to
all sort of refcounting bugchecks.  Getting a stable head_page is a little
tricky.

page_head = page is there because if this is not a tail page it's also the
page_head.  Only in case this is a tail page, compound_head is called,
otherwise it's guaranteed unnecessary.  And if it's a tail page
compound_head has to run atomically inside irq disabled section
__get_user_pages_fast before returning.  Otherwise ->first_page won't be a
stable pointer.

Disableing irq before __get_user_page_fast and releasing irq after running
compound_head is needed because if __get_user_page_fast returns == 1, it
means the huge pmd is established and cannot go away from under us.
pmdp_splitting_flush_notify in __split_huge_page_splitting will have to
wait for local_irq_enable before the IPI delivery can return.  This means
__split_huge_page_refcount can't be running from under us, and in turn
when we run compound_head(page) we're not reading a dangling pointer from
tailpage->first_page.  Then after we get to stable head page, we are
always safe to call compound_lock and after taking the compound lock on
head page we can finally re-check if the page returned by gup-fast is
still a tail page.  in which case we're set and we didn't need to split
the hugepage in order to take a futex on it.

Steven Rostedt f123c98e7f rtmutex: Fix comment about why new_owner can be NULL in wake_futex_pi()
The comment about why rt_mutex_next_owner() can return NULL in
wake_futex_pi() is not the normal case.

Tracing the cause of why this occurs is more likely that waiter
simply timedout. But because it originally caused contention with
the futex, the owner will go into the kernel when it unlocks
the lock. Then it will hit this code path and
rt_mutex_next_owner() will return NULL.

Darren Hart 5bdb05f91b futex: Add futex_q static initializer

believe it now merits a static initializer to avoid uninitialized data
errors (having spent more time than I care to admit debugging an uninitialized
q.bitset in an experimental new op code).

With the key initializer built in, several of the FUTEX_KEY_INIT calls can
be removed.

V2: use a static variable instead of an init macro.
    use a C99 initializer and don't rely on variable ordering in the struct.
V3: make futex_q_init const

Darren Hart 4c115e951d futex: Address compiler warnings in exit_robust_list
Since commit 1dcc41bb (futex: Change 3rd arg of fetch_robust_entry()

warning:

kernel/futex.c: In function ‘exit_robust_list’:
kernel/futex.c:2492: warning: ‘next_pi’ may be used uninitialized in this function

The commit did not introduce the warning as gcc should have warned
before that commit as well. It's just gcc being silly.

The code path really can't result in next_pi being unitialized (or
should not), but let's keep the build clean. Annotate next_pi as an
uninitialized_var.

Darren Hart 7ada876a87 futex: Fix errors in nested key ref-counting
futex_wait() is leaking key references due to futex_wait_setup()
acquiring an additional reference via the queue_lock() routine. The
nested key ref-counting has been masking bugs and complicating code
analysis. queue_lock() is only called with a previously ref-counted
key, so remove the additional ref-counting from the queue_(un)lock()
functions.

Also futex_wait_requeue_pi() drops one key reference too many in
unqueue_me_pi(). Remove the key reference handling from
unqueue_me_pi(). This was paired with a queue_lock() in
futex_lock_pi(), so the count remains unchanged.

Document remaining nested key ref-counting sites.

Michal Hocko 7a0ea09ad5 futex: futex_find_get_task remove credentails check
futex_find_get_task is currently used (through lookup_pi_state) from two
contexts, futex_requeue and futex_lock_pi_atomic.  None of the paths
looks it needs the credentials check, though.  Different (e)uids
shouldn't matter at all because the only thing that is important for
shared futex is the accessibility of the shared memory.

The credentail check results in glibc assert failure or process hang (if
glibc is compiled without assert support) for shared robust pthread
mutex with priority inheritance if a process tries to lock already held
lock owned by a process with a different euid:

pthread_mutex_lock.c:312: __pthread_mutex_lock_full: Assertion `(-(e)) != 3 || !robust' failed.

The problem is that futex_lock_pi_atomic which is called when we try to
lock already held lock checks the current holder (tid is stored in the
futex value) to get the PI state.  It uses lookup_pi_state which in turn
gets task struct from futex_find_get_task.  ESRCH is returned either
when the task is not found or if credentials check fails.

futex_lock_pi_atomic simply returns if it gets ESRCH.  glibc code,
however, doesn't expect that robust lock returns with ESRCH because it
should get either success or owner died.

The WARN_ON in lookup_pi_state which complains about a mismatch
between pi_state->owner->pid and the pid which we retrieved from the
user space futex is completely bogus.

The code just emits the warning and then continues despite the fact
that it detected an inconsistent state of the futex. A conveniant way
for user space to spam the syslog.

Replace the WARN_ON by a consistency check. If the values do not match
return -EINVAL and let user space deal with the mess it created.

This also fixes the missing task_pid_vnr() when we compare the
pi_state->owner pid with the futex value.

Thomas Gleixner 51246bfd18 futex: Handle user space corruption gracefully
If the owner of a PI futex dies we fix up the pi_state and set
pi_state->owner to NULL. When a malicious or just sloppy programmed
user space application sets the futex value to 0 e.g. by calling
pthread_mutex_init(), then the futex can be acquired again. A new
waiter manages to enqueue itself on the pi_state w/o damage, but on
unlock the kernel dereferences pi_state->owner and oopses.

Prevent this by checking pi_state->owner in the unlock path. If
pi_state->owner is not current we know that user space manipulated the
futex value. Ignore the mess and return -EINVAL.

This catches the above case and also the case where a task hijacks the
futex by setting the tid value and then tries to unlock it.

only once, causing the backing object to not be released.

If the futex is created in a temporary file in an ext3 file system,
this bug causes the file's inode to become an "undead" orphan,
which causes an oops from a BUG_ON() in ext3_put_super() when the
file system is unmounted. glibc's test suite is known to trigger this,
see <http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14256>.

The bug is a regression from 2.6.28-git3, namely Peter Zijlstra's
38d47c1b70 "[PATCH] futex: rely on
get_user_pages() for shared futexes". That commit made get_futex_key()
also increment the reference count of the futex key, and updated its
callers to decrement the key's reference count before returning.
Unfortunately the normal exit path in futex_lock_pi() wasn't corrected:
the reference count is incremented by get_futex_key() and queue_lock(),
but the normal exit path only decrements once, via unqueue_me_pi().
The fix is to put_futex_key() after unqueue_me_pi(), since 2.6.31
this is easily done by 'goto out_put_key' rather than 'goto out'.

KOSAKI Motohiro 7485d0d375 futexes: Remove rw parameter from get_futex_key()
Currently, futexes have two problem:

A) The current futex code doesn't handle private file mappings properly.

get_futex_key() uses PageAnon() to distinguish file and
anon, which can cause the following bad scenario:

  1) thread-A call futex(private-mapping, FUTEX_WAIT), it
     sleeps on file mapping object.
  2) thread-B writes a variable and it makes it cow.
  3) thread-B calls futex(private-mapping, FUTEX_WAKE), it
     wakes up blocked thread on the anonymous page. (but it's nothing)

B) Current futex code doesn't handle zero page properly.

Read mode get_user_pages() can return zero page, but current
futex code doesn't handle it at all. Then, zero page makes
infinite loop internally.

The solution is to use write mode get_user_page() always for
page lookup. It prevents the lookup of both file page of private
mappings and zero page.

Performance concerns:

Probaly very little, because glibc always initialize variables
for futex before to call futex(). It means glibc users never see
the overhead of this patch.

Compatibility concerns:

This patch has few compatibility issues. After this patch,
FUTEX_WAIT require writable access to futex variables (read-only
mappings makes EFAULT). But practically it's not a problem,
glibc always initalizes variables for futexes explicitly - nobody
uses read-only mappings.

Thomas Gleixner 11df6dddcb futex: Fix spurious wakeup for requeue_pi really
The requeue_pi path doesn't use unqueue_me() (and the racy lock_ptr ==
NULL test) nor does it use the wake_list of futex_wake() which where
the reason for commit 41890f2 (futex: Handle spurious wake up)

See debugging discussing on LKML Message-ID: <4AD4080C.20703@us.ibm.com>

The changes in this fix to the wait_requeue_pi path were considered to
be a likely unecessary, but harmless safety net. But it turns out that
due to the fact that for unknown $@#!*( reasons EWOULDBLOCK is defined
as EAGAIN we built an endless loop in the code path which returns
correctly EWOULDBLOCK.

Spurious wakeups in wait_requeue_pi code path are unlikely so we do
the easy solution and return EWOULDBLOCK^WEAGAIN to user space and let
it deal with the spurious wakeup.

Darren Hart 89061d3d58 futex: Move drop_futex_key_refs out of spinlock'ed region
When requeuing tasks from one futex to another, the reference held
by the requeued task to the original futex location needs to be
dropped eventually.

Dropping the reference may ultimately lead to a call to
"iput_final" and subsequently call into filesystem- specific code -
which may be non-atomic.

It is therefore safer to defer this drop operation until after the
futex_hash_bucket spinlock has been dropped.

Darren Hart 2bc872036e futex: Check for NULL keys in match_futex
If userspace tries to perform a requeue_pi on a non-requeue_pi waiter,
it will find the futex_q->requeue_pi_key to be NULL and OOPS.

Check for NULL in match_futex() instead of doing explicit NULL pointer
checks on all call sites.  While match_futex(NULL, NULL) returning
false is a little odd, it's still correct as we expect valid key
references.

Thomas Gleixner d58e6576b0 futex: Handle spurious wake up
The futex code does not handle spurious wake up in futex_wait and
futex_wait_requeue_pi.

The code assumes that any wake up which was not caused by futex_wake /
requeue or by a timeout was caused by a signal wake up and returns one
of the syscall restart error codes.

In case of a spurious wake up the signal delivery code which deals
with the restart error codes is not invoked and we return that error
code to user space. That causes applications which actually check the
return codes to fail. Blaise reported that on preempt-rt a python test
program run into a exception trap. -rt exposed that due to a built in
spurious wake up accelerator :)

Solve this by checking signal_pending(current) in the wake up path and
handle the spurious wake up case w/o returning to user space.
