The GetWriteWatch{} retrieves the addresses of the pages that are written to in a region of virtual memory. This syscall is used in Windows applications and games etc. This syscall is being emulated in pretty slow manner in userspace. Our purpose is to enhance the kernel such that we translate it efficiently in a better way. Currently some out of tree hack patches are being used to efficiently emulate it in some kernels. We intend to replace those with these patches. So the whole gaming on Linux can effectively get benefit from this. It means there would be tons of users of this code. CRIU use case [2] was mentioned by Andrei and Danylo: > Use cases for migrating sparse VMAs are binaries sanitized with ASAN, > MSAN or TSAN [3]. All of these sanitizers produce sparse mappings of > shadow memory [4]. Being able to migrate such binaries allows to highly > reduce the amount of work needed to identify and fix post-migration > crashes, which happen constantly. Andrei's defines the following uses of this code: * it is more granular and allows us to track changed pages more effectively. The current interface can clear dirty bits for the entire process only. In addition, reading info about pages is a separate operation. It means we must freeze the process to read information about all its pages, reset dirty bits, only then we can start dumping pages. The information about pages becomes more and more outdated, while we are processing pages. The new interface solves both these downsides. First, it allows us to read pte bits and clear the soft-dirty bit atomically. It means that CRIU will not need to freeze processes to pre-dump their memory. Second, it clears soft-dirty bits for a specified region of memory. It means CRIU will have actual info about pages to the moment of dumping them. * The new interface has to be much faster because basic page filtering is happening in the kernel. With the old interface, we have to read pagemap for each page. *Implementation Evolution (Short Summary)* From the definition of GetWriteWatch(), we feel like kernel's soft-dirty feature can be used under the hood with some additions like: * reset soft-dirty flag for only a specific region of memory instead of clearing the flag for the entire process * get and clear soft-dirty flag for a specific region atomically So we decided to use ioctl on pagemap file to read or/and reset soft-dirty flag. But using soft-dirty flag, sometimes we get extra pages which weren't even written. They had become soft-dirty because of VMA merging and VM_SOFTDIRTY flag. This breaks the definition of GetWriteWatch(). We were able to by-pass this short coming by ignoring VM_SOFTDIRTY until David reported that mprotect etc messes up the soft-dirty flag while ignoring VM_SOFTDIRTY [5]. This wasn't happening until [6] got introduced. We discussed if we can revert these patches. But we could not reach to any conclusion. So at this point, I made couple of tries to solve this whole VM_SOFTDIRTY issue by correcting the soft-dirty implementation: * [7] Correct the bug fixed wrongly back in 2014. It had potential to cause regression. We left it behind. * [8] Keep a list of soft-dirty part of a VMA across splits and merges. I got the reply don't increase the size of the VMA by 8 bytes. At this point, we left soft-dirty considering it is too much delicate and userfaultfd [9] seemed like the only way forward. From there onward, we have been basing soft-dirty emulation on userfaultfd wp feature where kernel resolves the faults itself when WP_ASYNC feature is used. It was straight forward to add WP_ASYNC feature in userfautlfd. Now we get only those pages dirty or written-to which are really written in reality. (PS There is another WP_UNPOPULATED userfautfd feature is required which is needed to avoid pre-faulting memory before write-protecting [9].) All the different masks were added on the request of CRIU devs to create interface more generic and better.

As kernel already has soft-dirty feature inside which we have given up to use, we are using written-to terminology while using UFFD async WP under the hood. This IOCTL, PAGEMAP_SCAN on pagemap file can be used to get and/or clear the info about page table entries. The following operations are supported in this ioctl: - Get the information if the pages have been written-to (PAGE_IS_WRITTEN), file mapped (PAGE_IS_FILE), present (PAGE_IS_PRESENT) or swapped (PAGE_IS_SWAPPED). - Write-protect the pages (PAGEMAP_WP_ENGAGE) to start finding which pages have been written-to. - Find pages which have been written-to and write protect the pages (atomic PAGE_IS_WRITTEN + PAGEMAP_WP_ENGAGE) It is possible to find and clear soft-dirty pages entirely in userspace. But it isn't efficient: - The mprotect and SIGSEGV handler for bookkeeping - The userfaultfd wp (synchronous) with the handler for bookkeeping Some benchmarks can be seen here[1]. This series adds features that weren't present earlier: - There is no atomic get soft-dirty/Written-to status and clear present in the kernel. - The pages which have been written-to can not be found in accurate way. (Kernel's soft-dirty PTE bit + sof_dirty VMA bit shows more soft-dirty pages than there actually are.) Historically, soft-dirty PTE bit tracking has been used in the CRIU project. The procfs interface is enough for finding the soft-dirty bit status and clearing the soft-dirty bit of all the pages of a process. We have the use case where we need to track the soft-dirty PTE bit for only specific pages on-demand. We need this tracking and clear mechanism of a region of memory while the process is running to emulate the getWriteWatch() syscall of Windows. *(Moved to using UFFD instead of soft-dirtyi feature to find pages which have been written-to from v7 patch series)*: Stop using the soft-dirty flags for finding which pages have been written to. It is too delicate and wrong as it shows more soft-dirty pages than the actual soft-dirty pages. There is no interest in correcting it [2][3] as this is how the feature was written years ago. It shouldn't be updated to changed behaviour. Peter Xu has suggested using the async version of the UFFD WP [4] as it is based inherently on the PTEs. So in this patch series, I've added a new mode to the UFFD which is asynchronous version of the write protect. When this variant of the UFFD WP is used, the page faults are resolved automatically by the kernel. The pages which have been written-to can be found by reading pagemap file (!PM_UFFD_WP). This feature can be used successfully to find which pages have been written to from the time the pages were write protected. This works just like the soft-dirty flag without showing any extra pages which aren't soft-dirty in reality. The information related to pages if the page is file mapped, present and swapped is required for the CRIU project [5][6]. The addition of the required mask, any mask, excluded mask and return masks are also required for the CRIU project [5]. The IOCTL returns the addresses of the pages which match the specific masks. The page addresses are returned in struct page_region in a compact form. The max_pages is needed to support a use case where user only wants to get a specific number of pages. So there is no need to find all the pages of interest in the range when max_pages is specified. The IOCTL returns when the maximum number of the pages are found. The max_pages is optional. If max_pages is specified, it must be equal or greater than the vec_size. This restriction is needed to handle worse case when one page_region only contains info of one page and it cannot be compacted. This is needed to emulate the Windows getWriteWatch() syscall. The patch series include the detailed selftest which can be used as an example for the uffd async wp test and PAGEMAP_IOCTL. It shows the interface usages as well.

[PATCH linux-next v2] selftests: net: udpgso_bench_rx: Fix verifty exceptions

by yang.yang29＠zte.com.cn

From: Zhang Yunkai (CGEL ZTE) <zhang.yunkai(a)zte.com.cn> The verification function of this test case is likely to encounter the following error, which may confuse users. The problem is easily reproducible in the latest kernel. Environment A, the sender: bash# udpgso_bench_tx -l 4 -4 -D "$IP_B" udpgso_bench_tx: write: Connection refused Environment B, the receiver: bash# udpgso_bench_rx -4 -G -S 1472 -v udpgso_bench_rx: data[1472]: len 17664, a(97) != q(113) If the packet is captured, you will see: Environment A, the sender: bash# tcpdump -i eth0 host "$IP_B" & IP $IP_A.41025 > $IP_B.8000: UDP, length 1472 IP $IP_A.41025 > $IP_B.8000: UDP, length 1472 IP $IP_B > $IP_A: ICMP $IP_B udp port 8000 unreachable, length 556 Environment B, the receiver: bash# tcpdump -i eth0 host "$IP_B" & IP $IP_A.41025 > $IP_B.8000: UDP, length 7360 IP $IP_A.41025 > $IP_B.8000: UDP, length 14720 IP $IP_B > $IP_A: ICMP $IP_B udp port 8000 unreachable, length 556 In one test, the verification data is printed as follows: abcd...xyz | 1... .. | abcd...xyz | abcd...opabcd...xyz | ...1472... Not xyzabcd, messages are merged .. | This is because the sending buffer is buf[64K], and its content is a loop of A-Z. But maybe only 1472 bytes per send, or more if UDP GSO is used. The message content does not necessarily end with XYZ, but GRO will merge these packets, and the -v parameter directly verifies the entire GRO receive buffer. So we do the validation after the data is split at the receiving end, just as the application actually uses this feature. If the sender does not use GSO, each individual segment starts at A, end at somewhere. Using GSO also has the same problem, and. The data between each segment during transmission is continuous, but GRO is merged in the order received, which is not necessarily the order of transmission. Execution in the same environment does not cause problems, because the lo device is not NAPI, and does not perform GRO processing. Perhaps it could be worth supporting to reduce system calls. bash# tcpdump -i lo host "$IP_self" & bash# echo udp_gro_receive > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter bash# echo function > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer bash# udpgso_bench_rx -4 -G -S 1472 -v & bash# udpgso_bench_tx -l 4 -4 -D "$IP_self" The issue still exists when using the GRO with -G, but not using the -S to obtain gsosize. Therefore, a print has been added to remind users. After this issue is resolved, another issue will be encountered and will be resolved in the next patch. Environment A, the sender: bash# udpgso_bench_tx -l 4 -4 -D "$DST" udpgso_bench_tx: write: Connection refused Environment B, the receiver: bash# udpgso_bench_rx -4 -G -S 1472 udp rx: 15 MB/s 256 calls/s udp rx: 30 MB/s 512 calls/s udpgso_bench_rx: recv: bad gso size, got -1, expected 1472 (-1 == no gso cmsg)) v2: - Fix confusing descriptions Signed-off-by: Zhang Yunkai (CGEL ZTE) <zhang.yunkai(a)zte.com.cn> Reviewed-by: Xu Xin (CGEL ZTE) <xu.xin16(a)zte.com.cn> Reviewed-by: Yang Yang (CGEL ZTE) <yang.yang29(a)zte.com.cn> Cc: Xuexin Jiang (CGEL ZTE) <jiang.xuexin(a)zte.com.cn> --- tools/testing/selftests/net/udpgso_bench_rx.c | 40 +++++++++++++++++++++------ 1 file changed, 31 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) diff --git a/tools/testing/selftests/net/udpgso_bench_rx.c b/tools/testing/selftests/net/udpgso_bench_rx.c index f35a924d4a30..6a2026494cdb 100644 --- a/tools/testing/selftests/net/udpgso_bench_rx.c +++ b/tools/testing/selftests/net/udpgso_bench_rx.c @@ -189,26 +189,44 @@ static char sanitized_char(char val) return (val >= 'a' && val <= 'z') ? val : '.'; } -static void do_verify_udp(const char *data, int len) +static void do_verify_udp(const char *data, int start, int len) { - char cur = data[0]; + char cur = data[start]; int i; /* verify contents */ if (cur < 'a' || cur > 'z') error(1, 0, "data initial byte out of range"); - for (i = 1; i < len; i++) { + for (i = start + 1; i < start + len; i++) { if (cur == 'z') cur = 'a'; else cur++; - if (data[i] != cur) + if (data[i] != cur) { + if (cfg_gro_segment && !cfg_expected_gso_size) + error(0, 0, "Use -S to obtain gsosize, to %s" + , "help guide split and verification."); + error(1, 0, "data[%d]: len %d, %c(%hhu) != %c(%hhu)\n", i, len, sanitized_char(data[i]), data[i], sanitized_char(cur), cur); + } + } +} + +static void do_verify_udp_gro(const char *data, int len, int gso_size) +{ + int start = 0; + + while (len - start > 0) { + if (len - start > gso_size) + do_verify_udp(data, start, gso_size); + else + do_verify_udp(data, start, len - start); + start += gso_size; } } @@ -264,16 +282,20 @@ static void do_flush_udp(int fd) if (cfg_expected_pkt_len && ret != cfg_expected_pkt_len) error(1, 0, "recv: bad packet len, got %d," " expected %d\n", ret, cfg_expected_pkt_len); + if (cfg_expected_gso_size && cfg_expected_gso_size != gso_size) + error(1, 0, "recv: bad gso size, got %d, expected %d %s", + gso_size, cfg_expected_gso_size, "(-1 == no gso cmsg))\n"); if (len && cfg_verify) { if (ret == 0) error(1, errno, "recv: 0 byte datagram\n"); - do_verify_udp(rbuf, ret); + if (!cfg_gro_segment) + do_verify_udp(rbuf, 0, ret); + else if (gso_size > 0) + do_verify_udp_gro(rbuf, ret, gso_size); + else + do_verify_udp_gro(rbuf, ret, ret); } - if (cfg_expected_gso_size && cfg_expected_gso_size != gso_size) - error(1, 0, "recv: bad gso size, got %d, expected %d " - "(-1 == no gso cmsg))\n", gso_size, - cfg_expected_gso_size); packets++; bytes += ret; -- 2.15.2

[PATCH] kunit: Set the current KUnit context when cleaning up

by David Gow

KUnit tests run in a kthread, with the current->kunit_test pointer set to the test's context. This allows the kunit_get_current_test() and kunit_fail_current_test() macros to work. Normally, this pointer is still valid during test shutdown (i.e., the suite->exit function, and any resource cleanup). However, if the test has exited early (e.g., due to a failed assertion), the cleanup is done in the parent KUnit thread, which does not have an active context. Fix this by setting the active KUnit context for the duration of the test shutdown procedure. When the test exits normally, this does nothing. When run from the KUits previous value (probably NULL) afterwards. This should make it easier to get access to the KUnit context, particularly from within resource cleanup functions, which may, for example, need access to data in test->priv. Signed-off-by: David Gow <davidgow(a)google.com> --- This becomes useful with the current kunit_add_action() implementation, as actions do not get the KUnit context passed in by default: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-kselftest/CABVgOSmjs0wLUa4=ErkB9tH8p6A1P6N33b… I think it's probably correct anyway, though, so we should either do this, or totally rule out using kunit_get_current_test() here at all, by resetting current->kunit_test to NULL before running cleanup even in the normal case. I've only given this the most cursory testing so far (I'm not sure how much of the executor innards I want to expose to be able to actually write a proper test for it), so more eyes and/or suggestions are welcome.

[PATCH v13 0/5] Implement IOCTL to get and optionally clear info about PTEs

by Muhammad Usama Anjum

The GetWriteWatch{} retrieves the addresses of the pages that are written to in a region of virtual memory. This syscall is used in Windows applications and games etc. This syscall is being emulated in pretty slow manner in userspace. Our purpose is to enhance the kernel such that we translate it efficiently in a better way. Currently some out of tree hack patches are being used to efficiently emulate it in some kernels. We intend to replace those with these patches. So the whole gaming on Linux can effectively get benefit from this. It means there would be tons of users of this code. CRIU use case [2] was mentioned by Andrei and Danylo: > Use cases for migrating sparse VMAs are binaries sanitized with ASAN, > MSAN or TSAN [3]. All of these sanitizers produce sparse mappings of > shadow memory [4]. Being able to migrate such binaries allows to highly > reduce the amount of work needed to identify and fix post-migration > crashes, which happen constantly. Andrei's defines the following uses of this code: * it is more granular and allows us to track changed pages more effectively. The current interface can clear dirty bits for the entire process only. In addition, reading info about pages is a separate operation. It means we must freeze the process to read information about all its pages, reset dirty bits, only then we can start dumping pages. The information about pages becomes more and more outdated, while we are processing pages. The new interface solves both these downsides. First, it allows us to read pte bits and clear the soft-dirty bit atomically. It means that CRIU will not need to freeze processes to pre-dump their memory. Second, it clears soft-dirty bits for a specified region of memory. It means CRIU will have actual info about pages to the moment of dumping them. * The new interface has to be much faster because basic page filtering is happening in the kernel. With the old interface, we have to read pagemap for each page. *Implementation Evolution (Short Summary)* From the definition of GetWriteWatch(), we feel like kernel's soft-dirty feature can be used under the hood with some additions like: * reset soft-dirty flag for only a specific region of memory instead of clearing the flag for the entire process * get and clear soft-dirty flag for a specific region atomically So we decided to use ioctl on pagemap file to read or/and reset soft-dirty flag. But using soft-dirty flag, sometimes we get extra pages which weren't even written. They had become soft-dirty because of VMA merging and VM_SOFTDIRTY flag. This breaks the definition of GetWriteWatch(). We were able to by-pass this short coming by ignoring VM_SOFTDIRTY until David reported that mprotect etc messes up the soft-dirty flag while ignoring VM_SOFTDIRTY [5]. This wasn't happening until [6] got introduced. We discussed if we can revert these patches. But we could not reach to any conclusion. So at this point, I made couple of tries to solve this whole VM_SOFTDIRTY issue by correcting the soft-dirty implementation: * [7] Correct the bug fixed wrongly back in 2014. It had potential to cause regression. We left it behind. * [8] Keep a list of soft-dirty part of a VMA across splits and merges. I got the reply don't increase the size of the VMA by 8 bytes. At this point, we left soft-dirty considering it is too much delicate and userfaultfd [9] seemed like the only way forward. From there onward, we have been basing soft-dirty emulation on userfaultfd wp feature where kernel resolves the faults itself when WP_ASYNC feature is used. It was straight forward to add WP_ASYNC feature in userfautlfd. Now we get only those pages dirty or written-to which are really written in reality. (PS There is another WP_UNPOPULATED userfautfd feature is required which is needed to avoid pre-faulting memory before write-protecting [9].) All the different masks were added on the request of CRIU devs to create interface more generic and better.

As kernel already has soft-dirty feature inside which we have given up to use, we are using written-to terminology while using UFFD async WP under the hood. This IOCTL, PAGEMAP_SCAN on pagemap file can be used to get and/or clear the info about page table entries. The following operations are supported in this ioctl: - Get the information if the pages have been written-to (PAGE_IS_WRITTEN), file mapped (PAGE_IS_FILE), present (PAGE_IS_PRESENT) or swapped (PAGE_IS_SWAPPED). - Write-protect the pages (PAGEMAP_WP_ENGAGE) to start finding which pages have been written-to. - Find pages which have been written-to and write protect the pages (atomic PAGE_IS_WRITTEN + PAGEMAP_WP_ENGAGE) It is possible to find and clear soft-dirty pages entirely in userspace. But it isn't efficient: - The mprotect and SIGSEGV handler for bookkeeping - The userfaultfd wp (synchronous) with the handler for bookkeeping Some benchmarks can be seen here[1]. This series adds features that weren't present earlier: - There is no atomic get soft-dirty/Written-to status and clear present in the kernel. - The pages which have been written-to can not be found in accurate way. (Kernel's soft-dirty PTE bit + sof_dirty VMA bit shows more soft-dirty pages than there actually are.) Historically, soft-dirty PTE bit tracking has been used in the CRIU project. The procfs interface is enough for finding the soft-dirty bit status and clearing the soft-dirty bit of all the pages of a process. We have the use case where we need to track the soft-dirty PTE bit for only specific pages on-demand. We need this tracking and clear mechanism of a region of memory while the process is running to emulate the getWriteWatch() syscall of Windows. *(Moved to using UFFD instead of soft-dirtyi feature to find pages which have been written-to from v7 patch series)*: Stop using the soft-dirty flags for finding which pages have been written to. It is too delicate and wrong as it shows more soft-dirty pages than the actual soft-dirty pages. There is no interest in correcting it [2][3] as this is how the feature was written years ago. It shouldn't be updated to changed behaviour. Peter Xu has suggested using the async version of the UFFD WP [4] as it is based inherently on the PTEs. So in this patch series, I've added a new mode to the UFFD which is asynchronous version of the write protect. When this variant of the UFFD WP is used, the page faults are resolved automatically by the kernel. The pages which have been written-to can be found by reading pagemap file (!PM_UFFD_WP). This feature can be used successfully to find which pages have been written to from the time the pages were write protected. This works just like the soft-dirty flag without showing any extra pages which aren't soft-dirty in reality. The information related to pages if the page is file mapped, present and swapped is required for the CRIU project [5][6]. The addition of the required mask, any mask, excluded mask and return masks are also required for the CRIU project [5]. The IOCTL returns the addresses of the pages which match the specific masks. The page addresses are returned in struct page_region in a compact form. The max_pages is needed to support a use case where user only wants to get a specific number of pages. So there is no need to find all the pages of interest in the range when max_pages is specified. The IOCTL returns when the maximum number of the pages are found. The max_pages is optional. If max_pages is specified, it must be equal or greater than the vec_size. This restriction is needed to handle worse case when one page_region only contains info of one page and it cannot be compacted. This is needed to emulate the Windows getWriteWatch() syscall. The patch series include the detailed selftest which can be used as an example for the uffd async wp test and PAGEMAP_IOCTL. It shows the interface usages as well.

[PATCH 0/6] tools/nolibc: add stackprotector support for more architectures

by Thomas Weißschuh

Add stackprotector support for all remaining architectures, except s390. On s390 the stackprotectors are not supported in "global" mode; only "sysreg" mode which is not suppored in nolibc. The series also contains a small optimization to strace output during execution of nolibc-test. This series is based on the 20230415-nolibc-updates-4a branch of the nolibc tree.

[PATCH] kselftest/arm64: Add a smoke test for ptracing hardware break/watch points

by Mark Brown

There was a report that the hardware breakpoints and watch points weren't reporting the debug architecture version as expected, they were reporting a version of 0 which is not defined in the architecture. This happens when running in a KVM guest if the host has a debug architecture version not supported by KVM, it in turn confuses GDB which rejects any debug architecture version it does not know about. Add a test that covers that situation and while we're at it reports the debug architecture version and number of slots available to aid with figuring out problems that may arise.
