2012-10-06epoll: support for disabling items, and a self-test appPaton J. Lewis
Enhanced epoll_ctl to support EPOLL_CTL_DISABLE, which disables an epoll item. If epoll_ctl doesn't return -EBUSY in this case, it is then safe to delete the epoll item in a multi-threaded environment. Also added a new test_epoll self- test app to both demonstrate the need for this feature and test it. Signed-off-by: Paton J.

2012-07-17PM: Rename CAP_EPOLLWAKEUP to CAP_BLOCK_SUSPENDMichael Kerrisk
As discussed in http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1249726/focus=1288990, the capability introduced in 4d7e30d98939a0340022ccd49325a3d70f7e0238 to govern EPOLLWAKEUP seems misnamed: this capability is about governing the ability to suspend the system, not using a particular API flag (EPOLLWAKEUP). We should make the name of the capability more general to encourage reuse in related cases. (Whether or not this capability should also be used to govern the use of /sys/power/wake_lock is a question that needs to be separately resolved.) This patch renames the capability to CAP_BLOCK_SUSPEND. In order to ensure that the old capability name doesn't make it out into the wild, could you please apply and push up the tree to ensure that it is incorporated for the 3.5 release.

2012-05-22epoll: Fix user space breakage related to EPOLLWAKEUPRafael J. Wysocki
Commit 4d7e30d (epoll: Add a flag, EPOLLWAKEUP, to prevent suspend while epoll events are ready) caused some applications to malfunction, because they set the bit corresponding to the new EPOLLWAKEUP flag in their eventpoll flags and they don't have the new CAP_EPOLLWAKEUP capability. To prevent that from happening, change epoll_ctl() to clear EPOLLWAKEUP in epds.events if the caller doesn't have the CAP_EPOLLWAKEUP capability instead of failing and returning an error code, which allows the affected applications to function normally.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-asm_system Pull "Disintegrate and delete asm/system.h" from David Howells: "Here are a bunch of patches to disintegrate asm/system.h into a set of separate bits to relieve the problem of circular inclusion dependencies. I've built all the working defconfigs from all the arches that I can and made sure that they don't break. The reason for these patches is that I recently encountered a circular dependency problem that came about when I produced some patches to optimise get_order() by rewriting it to use ilog2(). This uses bitops - and on the SH arch asm/bitops.h drags in asm-generic/get_order.h by a circuituous route involving asm/system.h. The main difficulty seems to be asm/system.h. It holds a number of low level bits with no/few dependencies that are commonly used (eg. memory barriers) and a number of bits with more dependencies that aren't used in many places (eg. switch_to()). These patches break asm/system.h up into the following core pieces: (1) asm/barrier.h Move memory barriers here. This already done for MIPS and Alpha. (2) asm/switch_to.h Move switch_to() and related stuff here. (3) asm/exec.h Move arch_align_stack() here. Other process execution related bits could perhaps go here from asm/processor.h. (4) asm/cmpxchg.h Move xchg() and cmpxchg() here as they're full word atomic ops and frequently used by atomic_xchg() and atomic_cmpxchg(). (5) asm/bug.h Move die() and related bits. (6) asm/auxvec.h Move AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH here. Other arch headers are created as needed on a per-arch basis."

2012-03-23epoll: comment the funky #ifdefSteven Rostedt
Looking for a bug in -rt, I stumbled across this code here from: commit 2dfa4eeab0fc ("epoll keyed wakeups: teach epoll about hints coming with the wakeup key"), specifically: #ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC static inline void ep_wake_up_nested(wait_queue_head_t *wqueue, unsigned long events, int subclass) { unsigned long flags; spin_lock_irqsave_nested(&wqueue->lock, flags, subclass); wake_up_locked_poll(wqueue, events); spin_unlock_irqrestore(&wqueue->lock, flags); } #else static inline void ep_wake_up_nested(wait_queue_head_t *wqueue, unsigned long events, int subclass) { wake_up_poll(wqueue, events); } #endif You change the function of ep_wake_up_nested() depending on whether CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC is set or not. This looks awfully suspicious, and there's no comment to explain why. I initially thought that this was trying to fool lockdep, and hiding a real bug. Investigating it, I found the creation of wake_up_nested() (which no longer exists) but was created for the sole purpose of epoll and its strange wake ups, as explained in commit 0ccf831cbee9 ("lockdep: annotate epoll") Although the commit message says "annotate epoll" the change log is much better at explaining what is happening than what is in the actual code. Thus a comment is really necessary here. And to save the time of other developers from having to go trudging through the git logs trying to figure out why this code exists. I took parts of the change log and placed it into a comment above the affected code. This will make the description of what is happening more visible to new developers that have to look at this code for the first time.

2012-03-23poll: add poll_requested_events() and poll_does_not_wait() functionsHans Verkuil
In some cases the poll() implementation in a driver has to do different things depending on the events the caller wants to poll for. An example is when a driver needs to start a DMA engine if the caller polls for POLLIN, but doesn't want to do that if POLLIN is not requested but instead only POLLOUT or POLLPRI is requested. This is something that can happen in the video4linux subsystem among others. Unfortunately, the current epoll/poll/select implementation doesn't provide that information reliably. The poll_table_struct does have it: it has a key field with the event mask. But once a poll() call matches one or more bits of that mask any following poll() calls are passed a NULL poll_table pointer. Also, the eventpoll implementation always left the key field at ~0 instead of using the requested events mask. This was changed in eventpoll.c so the key field now contains the actual events that should be polled for as set by the caller. The solution to the NULL poll_table pointer is to set the qproc field to NULL in poll_table once poll() matches the events, not the poll_table pointer itself. That way drivers can obtain the mask through a new poll_requested_events inline. The poll_table_struct can still be NULL since some kernel code calls it internally (netfs_state_poll() in ./drivers/staging/pohmelfs/netfs.h). In that case poll_requested_events() returns ~0 (i.e. all events). Very rarely drivers might want to know whether poll_wait will actually wait. If another earlier file descriptor in the set already matched the events the caller wanted to wait for, then the kernel will return from the select() call without waiting. This might be useful information in order to avoid doing expensive work. A new helper function poll_does_not_wait() is added that drivers can use to detect this situation. This is now used in sock_poll_wait() in include/net/sock.h. This was the only place in the kernel that needed this information. Drivers should no longer access any of the poll_table internals, but use the poll_requested_events() and poll_does_not_wait() access functions instead. In order to enforce that the poll_table fields are now prepended with an underscore and a comment was added warning against using them directly. This required a change in unix_dgram_poll() in unix/af_unix.c which used the key field to get the requested events. It's been replaced by a call to poll_requested_events(). For qproc it was especially important to change its name since the behavior of that field changes with this patch since this function pointer can now be NULL when that wasn't possible in the past. Any driver accessing the qproc or key fields directly will now fail to compile. Some notes regarding the correctness of this patch: the driver's poll() function is called with a 'struct poll_table_struct *wait' argument. This pointer may or may not be NULL, drivers can never rely on it being one or the other as that depends on whether or not an earlier file descriptor in the select()'s fdset matched the requested events. There are only three things a driver can do with the wait argument: 1) obtain the key field: events = wait ? wait->key : ~0; This will still work although it should be replaced with the new poll_requested_events() function (which does exactly the same). This will now even work better, since wait is no longer set to NULL unnecessarily. 2) use the qproc callback. This could be deadly since qproc can now be NULL. Renaming qproc should prevent this from happening. There are no kernel drivers that actually access this callback directly, BTW. 3) test whether wait == NULL to determine whether poll would return without waiting. This is no longer sufficient as the correct test is now wait == NULL || wait->_qproc == NULL. However, the worst that can happen here is a slight performance hit in the case where wait != NULL and wait->_qproc == NULL. In that case the driver will assume that poll_wait() will actually add the fd to the set of waiting file descriptors. Of course, poll_wait() will not do that since it tests for wait->_qproc. This will not break anything, though. There is only one place in the whole kernel where this happens (sock_poll_wait() in include/net/sock.h) and that code will be replaced by a call to poll_does_not_wait() in the next patch. Note that even if wait->_qproc != NULL drivers cannot rely on poll_wait() actually waiting. The next file descriptor from the set might match the event mask and thus any possible waits will never happen.

2012-03-18Don't limit non-nested epoll pathsJason Baron
Commit 28d82dc1c4ed ("epoll: limit paths") that I did to limit the number of possible wakeup paths in epoll is causing a few applications to longer work (dovecot for one). The original patch is really about limiting the amount of epoll nesting (since epoll fds can be attached to other fds). Thus, we probably can allow an unlimited number of paths of depth 1. My current patch limits it at 1000. And enforce the limits on paths that have a greater depth.

2012-02-24epoll: ep_unregister_pollwait() can use the freed pwq->wheadOleg Nesterov
signalfd_cleanup() ensures that ->signalfd_wqh is not used, but this is not enough. eppoll_entry->whead still points to the memory we are going to free, ep_unregister_pollwait()->remove_wait_queue() is obviously unsafe. Change ep_poll_callback(POLLFREE) to set eppoll_entry->whead = NULL, change ep_unregister_pollwait() to check pwq->whead != NULL under rcu_read_lock() before remove_wait_queue(). We add the new helper, ep_remove_wait_queue(), for this. This works because sighand_cachep is SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU and because ->signalfd_wqh is initialized in sighand_ctor(), not in copy_sighand. ep_unregister_pollwait()->remove_wait_queue() can play with already freed and potentially reused ->sighand, but this is fine. This memory must have the valid ->signalfd_wqh until rcu_read_unlock().

2012-02-24epoll: introduce POLLFREE to flush ->signalfd_wqh before kfree()Oleg Nesterov
This patch is intentionally incomplete to simplify the review. It ignores ep_unregister_pollwait() which plays with the same wqh. See the next change. epoll assumes that the EPOLL_CTL_ADD'ed file controls everything f_op->poll() needs. In particular it assumes that the wait queue can't go away until eventpoll_release(). This is not true in case of signalfd, the task which does EPOLL_CTL_ADD uses its ->sighand which is not connected to the file. This patch adds the special event, POLLFREE, currently only for epoll. It expects that init_poll_funcptr()'ed hook should do the necessary cleanup. Perhaps it should be defined as EPOLLFREE in eventpoll. __cleanup_sighand() is changed to do wake_up_poll(POLLFREE) if ->signalfd_wqh is not empty, we add the new signalfd_cleanup() helper. ep_poll_callback(POLLFREE) simply does list_del_init(task_list). This make this poll entry inconsistent, but we don't care. If you share epoll fd which contains our sigfd with another process you should blame yourself. signalfd is "really special". I simply do not know how we can define the "right" semantics if it used with epoll. The main problem is, epoll calls signalfd_poll() once to establish the connection with the wait queue, after that signalfd_poll(NULL) returns the different/inconsistent results depending on who does EPOLL_CTL_MOD/signalfd_read/etc. IOW: apart from sigmask, signalfd has nothing to do with the file, it works with the current thread. In short: this patch is the hack which tries to fix the symptoms. It also assumes that nobody can take tasklist_lock under epoll locks, this seems to be true. Note: - we do not have wake_up_all_poll() but wake_up_poll() is fine, poll/epoll doesn't use WQ_FLAG_EXCLUSIVE. - signalfd_cleanup() uses POLLHUP along with POLLFREE, we need a couple of simple changes in eventpoll.c to make sure it can't be "lost".

2012-01-12epoll: limit pathsJason Baron
The current epoll code can be tickled to run basically indefinitely in both loop detection path check (on ep_insert()), and in the wakeup paths. The programs that tickle this behavior set up deeply linked networks of epoll file descriptors that cause the epoll algorithms to traverse them indefinitely. A couple of these sample programs have been previously posted in this thread: https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/2/25/297. To fix the loop detection path check algorithms, I simply keep track of the epoll nodes that have been already visited. Thus, the loop detection becomes proportional to the number of epoll file descriptor and links. This dramatically decreases the run-time of the loop check algorithm. In one diabolical case I tried it reduced the run-time from 15 mintues (all in kernel time) to .3 seconds. Fixing the wakeup paths could be done at wakeup time in a similar manner by keeping track of nodes that have already been visited, but the complexity is harder, since there can be multiple wakeups on different cpus...Thus, I've opted to limit the number of possible wakeup paths when the paths are created. This is accomplished, by noting that the end file descriptor points that are found during the loop detection pass (from the newly added link), are actually the sources for wakeup events. I keep a list of these file descriptors and limit the number and length of these paths that emanate from these 'source file descriptors'. In the current implemetation I allow 1000 paths of length 1, 500 of length 2, 100 of length 3, 50 of length 4 and 10 of length 5. Note that it is sufficient to check the 'source file descriptors' reachable from the newly added link, since no other 'source file descriptors' will have newly added links. This allows us to check only the wakeup paths that may have gotten too long, and not re-check all possible wakeup paths on the system. In terms of the path limit selection, I think its first worth noting that the most common case for epoll, is probably the model where you have 1 epoll file descriptor that is monitoring n number of 'source file descriptors'. In this case, each 'source file descriptor' has a 1 path of length 1. Thus, I believe that the limits I'm proposing are quite reasonable and in fact may be too generous. Thus, I'm hoping that the proposed limits will not prevent any workloads that currently work to fail. In terms of locking, I have extended the use of the 'epmutex' to all epoll_ctl add and remove operations. Currently its only used in a subset of the add paths. I need to hold the epmutex, so that we can correctly traverse a coherent graph, to check the number of paths. I believe that this additional locking is probably ok, since its in the setup/teardown paths, and doesn't affect the running paths, but it certainly is going to add some extra overhead. Also, worth noting is that the epmuex was recently added to the ep_ctl add operations in the initial path loop detection code using the argument that it was not on a critical path. Another thing to note here, is the length of epoll chains that is allowed. Currently, eventpoll.c defines: /* Maximum number of nesting allowed inside epoll sets */ #define EP_MAX_NESTS 4 This basically means that I am limited to a graph depth of 5 (EP_MAX_NESTS + 1). However, this limit is currently only enforced during the loop check detection code, and only when the epoll file descriptors are added in a certain order. Thus, this limit is currently easily bypassed. The newly added check for wakeup paths, stricly limits the wakeup paths to a length of 5, regardless of the order in which ep's are linked together. Thus, a side-effect of the new code is a more consistent enforcement of the graph depth. Thus far, I've tested this, using the sample programs previously mentioned, which now either return quickly or return -EINVAL. I've also testing using the piptest.c epoll tester, which showed no difference in performance. I've also created a number of different epoll networks and tested that they behave as expectded. I believe this solves the original diabolical test cases, while still preserving the sane epoll nesting.

2011-10-31epoll: fix spurious lockdep warningsNelson Elhage
epoll can acquire recursively acquire ep->mtx on multiple "struct eventpoll"s at once in the case where one epoll fd is monitoring another epoll fd. This is perfectly OK, since we're careful about the lock ordering, but it causes spurious lockdep warnings. Annotate the recursion using mutex_lock_nested, and add a comment explaining the nesting rules for good measure. Recent versions of systemd are triggering this, and it can also be demonstrated with the following trivial test program: --------------------8<-------------------- int main(void) { int e1, e2; struct epoll_event evt = { .events = EPOLLIN }; e1 = epoll_create1(0); e2 = epoll_create1(0); epoll_ctl(e1, EPOLL_CTL_ADD, e2, &evt); return 0; } --------------------8<-------------------- Reported-by: Paul Bolle <pebolle@tiscali.nl> Tested-by: Paul Bolle <pebolle@tiscali.nl> Signed-off-by: Nelson Elhage <nelhage@nelhage.com> Acked-by: Jason Baron <jbaron@redhat.com> Cc: Dave Jones <davej@redhat.com> Cc: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> Cc: <stable@kernel.org> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2011-02-25epoll: prevent creating circular epoll structuresDavide Libenzi
In several places, an epoll fd can call another file's ->f_op->poll() method with ep->mtx held. This is in general unsafe, because that other file could itself be an epoll fd that contains the original epoll fd. The code defends against this possibility in its own ->poll() method using ep_call_nested, but there are several other unsafe calls to ->poll elsewhere that can be made to deadlock. For example, the following simple program causes the call in ep_insert recursively call the original fd's ->poll, leading to deadlock: #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/epoll.h> int main(void) { int e1, e2, p[2]; struct epoll_event evt = { .events = EPOLLIN }; e1 = epoll_create(1); e2 = epoll_create(2); pipe(p); epoll_ctl(e2, EPOLL_CTL_ADD, e1, &evt); epoll_ctl(e1, EPOLL_CTL_ADD, p[0], &evt); write(p[1], p, sizeof p); epoll_ctl(e1, EPOLL_CTL_ADD, e2, &evt); return 0; } On insertion, check whether the inserted file is itself a struct epoll, and if so, do a recursive walk to detect whether inserting this file would create a loop of epoll structures, which could lead to deadlock.

2010-10-15llseek: automatically add .llseek fopArnd Bergmann
All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a .llseek pointer. The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek. New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek and call nonseekable_open at open time. Existing drivers can be converted to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code relies on calling seek on the device file. The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle. Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window. Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic patch that does all this. ===== begin semantic patch ===== // This adds an llseek= method to all file operations, // as a preparation for making no_llseek the default. // // The rules are // - use no_llseek explicitly if we do nonseekable_open // - use seq_lseek for sequential files // - use default_llseek if we know we access f_pos // - use noop_llseek if we know we don't access f_pos, // but we still want to allow users to call lseek // @ open1 exists @ identifier nested_open; @@ nested_open(...) { <+... nonseekable_open(...) ...+> } @ open exists@ identifier open_f; identifier i, f; identifier open1.nested_open; @@ int open_f(struct inode *i, struct file *f) { <+...

2009-06-18epoll: fix nested calls supportDavide Libenzi
This fixes a regression in 2.6.30. I unfortunately accepted a patch time ago, to drop the "current" usage from possible IRQ context, w/out proper thought over it. The patch switched to using the CPU id by bounding the nested call callback with a get_cpu()/put_cpu(). Unfortunately the ep_call_nested() function can be called with a callback that grabs sleepy locks (from own f_op->poll()), that results in epic fails. The following patch uses the proper "context" depending on the path where it is called, and on the kind of callback. This has been reported by Stefan Richter, that has also verified the patch is his previously failing environment.

xchg in ep_unregister_pollwait() is unnecessary because it is protected by either epmutex or ep->mtx (the same protection as ep_remove()). If xchg was necessary, it would be insufficient to protect against problems: if multiple concurrent calls to ep_unregister_pollwait() were possible then a second caller that returns without doing anything because nwait == 0 could return before the waitqueues are removed by the first caller, which looks like it could lead to problematic races with ep_poll_callback().

2009-04-01epoll: fix epoll's own pollDavide Libenzi
Fix a bug inside the epoll's f_op->poll() code, that returns POLLIN even though there are no actual ready monitored fds. The bug shows up if you add an epoll fd inside another fd container (poll, select, epoll). The problem is that callback-based wake ups used by epoll does not carry (patches will follow, to fix this) any information about the events that actually happened. So the callback code, since it can't call the file* ->poll() inside the callback, chains the file* into a ready-list. So, suppose you added an fd with EPOLLOUT only, and some data shows up on the fd, the file* mapped by the fd will be added into the ready-list (via wakeup callback). During normal epoll_wait() use, this condition is sorted out at the time we're actually able to call the file*'s f_op->poll(). Inside the old epoll's f_op->poll() though, only a quick check !list_empty(ready-list) was performed, and this could have led to reporting POLLIN even though no ready fds would show up at a following epoll_wait(). In order to correctly report the ready status for an epoll fd, the ready-list must be checked to see if any really available fd+event would be ready in a following epoll_wait(). Operation (calling f_op->poll() from inside f_op->poll()) that, like wake ups, must be handled with care because of the fact that epoll fds can be added to other epoll fds.

2009-03-16Rename struct file->f_ep_lockJonathan Corbet
This lock moves out of the CONFIG_EPOLL ifdef and becomes f_lock. For now, epoll remains the only user, but a future patch will use it to protect f_flags as well. Cc: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
2009-01-29epoll: drop max_user_instances and rely only on max_user_watchesDavide Libenzi
Linus suggested to put limits where the money is, and max_user_watches already does that w/out the need of max_user_instances. That has the advantage to mitigate the potential DoS while allowing pretty generous default behavior. Allowing top 4% of low memory (per user) to be allocated in epoll watches, we have: LOMEM MAX_WATCHES (per user) 512MB ~178000 1GB ~356000 2GB ~712000 A box with 512MB of lomem, will meet some challenge in hitting 180K watches, socket buffers math teaches us. No more max_user_instances limits then.
