2021-11-06kfence: default to dynamic branch instead of static keys modeMarco Elver1-4/+8
We have observed that on very large machines with newer CPUs, the static key/branch switching delay is on the order of milliseconds. This is due to the required broadcast IPIs, which simply does not scale well to hundreds of CPUs (cores). If done too frequently, this can adversely affect tail latencies of various workloads. One workaround is to increase the sample interval to several seconds, while decreasing sampled allocation coverage, but the problem still exists and could still increase tail latencies. As already noted in the Kconfig help text, there are trade-offs: at lower sample intervals the dynamic branch results in better performance; however, at very large sample intervals, the static keys mode can result in better performance -- careful benchmarking is recommended. Our initial benchmarking showed that with large enough sample intervals and workloads stressing the allocator, the static keys mode was slightly better. Evaluating and observing the possible system-wide side-effects of the static-key-switching induced broadcast IPIs, however, was a blind spot (in particular on large machines with 100s of cores). Therefore, a major downside of the static keys mode is, unfortunately, that it is hard to predict performance on new system architectures and topologies, but also making conclusions about performance of new workloads based on a limited set of benchmarks. Most distributions will simply select the defaults, while targeting a large variety of different workloads and system architectures. As such, the better default is CONFIG_KFENCE_STATIC_KEYS=n, and re-enabling it is only recommended after careful evaluation. For reference, on x86-64 the condition in kfence_alloc() generates exactly 2 instructions in the kmem_cache_alloc() fast-path: | ... | cmpl $0x0,0x1a8021c(%rip) # ffffffff82d560d0 <kfence_allocation_gate> | je ffffffff812d6003 <kmem_cache_alloc+0x243> | ... which, given kfence_allocation_gate is infrequently modified, should be well predicted by most CPUs.

Commit 1d71307a6f94 ("kunit: add unit test for filtering suites by names") introduced the ability to filter which suites we run via glob. This change extends it so we can also filter individual test cases inside of suites as well. This is quite useful when, e.g. * trying to run just the tests cases you've just added or are working on * trying to debug issues with test hermeticity Examples: $ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --kunitconfig=lib/kunit '*exec*.parse*' ... ============================================================ ======== [PASSED] kunit_executor_test ======== [PASSED] parse_filter_test ============================================================ Testing complete. 1 tests run. 0 failed. 0 crashed. $ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --kunitconfig=lib/kunit '*.no_matching_tests' ...

2021-10-07kasan: Extend KASAN mode kernel parameterVincenzo Frascino1-2/+5
Architectures supported by KASAN_HW_TAGS can provide an asymmetric mode of execution. On an MTE enabled arm64 hw for example this can be identified with the asymmetric tagging mode of execution. In particular, when such a mode is present, the CPU triggers a fault on a tag mismatch during a load operation and asynchronously updates a register when a tag mismatch is detected during a store operation. Extend the KASAN HW execution mode kernel command line parameter to support asymmetric mode.

--raw_output is nice, but it would be nicer if could show only output after KUnit tests have started. So change the flag to allow specifying a string ('kunit'). Make it so `--raw_output` alone will default to `--raw_output=all` and have the same original behavior. Drop the small kunit_parser.raw_output() function since it feels wrong to put it in "kunit_parser.py" when the point of it is to not parse anything.

Rework atomic.h into permissive.h to better reflect its purpose, and introduce kcsan_ignore_address() and kcsan_ignore_data_race(). Introduce CONFIG_KCSAN_PERMISSIVE and update the stub functions in preparation for subsequent changes. As before, developers who choose to use KCSAN in "strict" mode will see all data races and are not affected. Furthermore, by relying on the value-change filter logic for kcsan_ignore_data_race(), even if the permissive rules are enabled, the opt-outs in report.c:skip_report() override them (such as for RCU-related functions by default). The option CONFIG_KCSAN_PERMISSIVE is disabled by default, so that the documented default behaviour of KCSAN does not change. Instead, like CONFIG_KCSAN_IGNORE_ATOMICS, the option needs to be explicitly opted in.

2021-07-12Documentation: kunit: drop obsolete note about uml_abort for coverageDaniel Latypov1-13/+1
Commit b6d5799b0b58 ("kunit: Add 'kunit_shutdown' option") changes KUnit to call kernel_halt() by default when done testing. This fixes the issue with not having .gcda files due to not calling atexit() handlers, and therefore we can stop recommending people manually tweak UML code. The need to use older versions of GCC (<=6) remains however, due to linktime issues, same as before. Note: There also might still be issues with .gcda files as well in newer versions.

2021-06-29kasan: test: improve failure message in KUNIT_EXPECT_KASAN_FAIL()David Gow1-5/+4
The KUNIT_EXPECT_KASAN_FAIL() macro currently uses KUNIT_EXPECT_EQ() to compare fail_data.report_expected and fail_data.report_found. This always gave a somewhat useless error message on failure, but the addition of extra compile-time checking with READ_ONCE() has caused it to get much longer, and be truncated before anything useful is displayed. Instead, just check fail_data.report_found by hand (we've just set report_expected to 'true'), and print a better failure message with KUNIT_FAIL(). Because of this, report_expected is no longer used anywhere, and can be removed. Beforehand, a failure in: KUNIT_EXPECT_KASAN_FAIL(test, ((volatile char *)area)[3100]); would have looked like: [22:00:34] [FAILED] vmalloc_oob [22:00:34] # vmalloc_oob: EXPECTATION FAILED at lib/test_kasan.c:991 [22:00:34] Expected ({ do { extern void __compiletime_assert_705(void) __attribute__((__error__("Unsupported access size for {READ,WRITE}_ONCE()."))); if (!((sizeof(fail_data.report_expected) == sizeof(char) || sizeof(fail_data.repp [22:00:34] not ok 45 - vmalloc_oob With this change, it instead looks like: [22:04:04] [FAILED] vmalloc_oob [22:04:04] # vmalloc_oob: EXPECTATION FAILED at lib/test_kasan.c:993 [22:04:04] KASAN failure expected in "((volatile char *)area)[3100]", but none occurred [22:04:04] not ok 45 - vmalloc_oob Also update the example failure in the documentation to reflect this.

2021-05-21Documentation: kunit: add tips for running KUnitDaniel Latypov3-0/+262
This is long overdue. There are several things that aren't nailed down (in-tree .kunitconfig's), or partially broken (GCOV on UML), but having them documented, warts and all, is better than having nothing. This covers a bunch of the more recent features * kunit_filter_glob * kunit.py run --kunitconfig * slightly more detail on building tests as modules * CONFIG_KUNIT_DEBUGFS By my count, the only headline features now not mentioned are the KASAN integration and KernelCI json output support (kunit.py run --json). And then it also discusses how to get code coverage reports under UML and non-UML since this is a question people have repeatedly asked. Non-UML coverage collection is no different from normal, but we should probably explicitly call this out. As for UML, I was able to get it working again with two small hacks.* E.g. with CONFIG_KUNIT=y && CONFIG_KUNIT_ALL_TESTS=y Overall coverage rate: lines......: 15.1% (18294 of 120776 lines) functions..: 16.8% (1860 of 11050 functions) Note: this doesn't document --alltests since this is not stable yet. Hopefully being run more frequently as part of KernelCI will help... *Using gcc/gcov-6 and not using uml_abort() in os_dump_core(). I've documented these hacks in "Notes" but left TODOs for brendanhiggins@google.com who tracked down the runtime issue in GCC. To be clear: these are not issues specific to KUnit, but rather to UML.

Since that commit BIT() has moved again into include/vdso/bits.h via commit 3945ff37d2f4 ("linux/bits.h: Extract common header for vDSO").

2021-05-07scripts/gdb: add lx_current support for arm64Barry Song1-1/+1
arm64 uses SP_EL0 to save the current task_struct address. While running in EL0, SP_EL0 is clobbered by userspace. So if the upper bit is not 1 (not TTBR1), the current address is invalid. This patch checks the upper bit of SP_EL0, if the upper bit is 1, lx_current() of arm64 will return the derefrence of current task. Otherwise, lx_current() will tell users they are running in userspace(EL0). While arm64 is running in EL0, it is actually pointless to print current task as the memory of kernel space is not accessible in EL0.
