Fix: adapt to kernel relative references
Upstream Linux commit
46e0c9be20 introduces relative references in the
struct tracepoint array of pointers.
Up to (including) v4.19-rc7, the upstream kernel has a type mismatch bug
that allows it to pass an out-of-bound end of array to modules
coming/going notifiers.
The fix for upstream Linux is to introduce a new type: tracepoint_ptr_t,
which can be used to adequately iterate on the array. It is introduced
prior to v4.19 as commit
9c0be3f6b5d77 "tracepoint: Fix tracepoint array
element size mismatch".

Fix: implicit declarations caused by buffer size checks.
Issue
=====
Three kernel functions used in the following commit are unavailable on
some supported kernels:
commit
1f0ab1eb0409d23de5f67cc588c3ea4cee4d10e0
Prevent allocation of buffers if exceeding available memory
* si_mem_available() was added in kernel 4.6 with commit
d02bd27.
* {set, clear}_current_oom_origin() were added in kernel 3.8 with commit:
e1e12d2f
Solution
========
Add wrappers around these functions such that older kernels will build
with these functions defined as NOP or trivial return value.
wrapper_check_enough_free_pages() uses the si_mem_available() kernel
function to compute if the number pages requested passed as parameter is
smaller than the number of pages available on the machine. If the
si_mem_available() kernel function is unavailable, we always return
true.
wrapper_set_current_oom_origin() function wraps the
set_current_oom_origin() kernel function when it is available.
If set_current_oom_origin() is unavailable the wrapper is empty.
wrapper_clear_current_oom_origin() function wraps the
clear_current_oom_origin() kernel function when it is available.
If clear_current_oom_origin() is unavailable the wrapper is empty.
Drawbacks

Prevent allocation of buffers if exceeding available memory
Issue
=====
The running system can be rendered unusable by creating a channel
buffers larger than the available memory of the system, resulting in
random processes being killed by the OOM-killer.
These simple commands trigger the crash on my 15G of RAM laptop:
lttng create
lttng enable-channel -k --subbuf-size=16G --num-subbuf=1 chan0
Note that the subbuf-size * num-subbuf is larger than the physical
memory.
Solution
========
Get an estimate of the number of available pages and return ENOMEM if
there are not enough pages to cover the needs of the caller. Also, mark
the calling user thread as the first target for the OOM killer in case
the estimate of available pages was wrong.
This greatly reduces the attack surface of this issue as well as reducing
its potential impact.
This approach is inspired by the one taken by the Linux kernel
trace ring buffer[1].
Drawback
========
This approach is imperfect because it's based on an estimate.

Fix: access migrate_disable field directly
For stable real time kernel > 4.9, the __migrate_disabled utility symbol
is not always exported. This can result in linking problem at build time

The problem was reported to the RT community. [1] [2]
A solution is to access the field directly instead of using the
utility wrapper.
It is important to note that the field is now available for other
configurations than CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT_FULL. For now, we choose to
expose the migratable context only for configurations where
CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT_FULL is set.
Based on the configuration dependency of the kernels, selecting
CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT_FULL ensures the presence of the migrate_disable
field.

BUILD_BUG_ON(): fix it and a couple of bogus uses of it
gcc permitting variable length arrays makes the current construct used for
BUILD_BUG_ON() useless, as that doesn't produce any diagnostic if the
controlling expression isn't really constant. Instead, this patch makes
it so that a bit field gets used here. Consequently, those uses where the
condition isn't really constant now also need fixing.
Note that in the gfp.h, kmemcheck.h, and virtio_config.h cases
MAYBE_BUILD_BUG_ON() really just serves documentation purposes - even if
the expression is compile time constant (__builtin_constant_p() yields
true), the array is still deemed of variable length by gcc, and hence the
whole expression doesn't have the intended effect.

BUILD_BUG_ON: make it handle more cases
BUILD_BUG_ON used to use the optimizer to do code elimination or fail
at link time; it was changed to first the size of a negative array (a
nicer compile time error), then (in
8c87df457cb58fe75b9b893007917cf8095660a0) to a bitfield.
This forced us to change some non-constant cases to MAYBE_BUILD_BUG_ON();
as Jan points out in that commit, it didn't work as intended anyway.
bitfields: needs a literal constant at parse time, and can't be put under
"if (__builtin_constant_p(x))" for example.
negative array: can handle anything, but if the compiler can't tell it's
a constant, silently has no effect.
link time: breaks link if the compiler can't determine the value, but the
linker output is not usually as informative as a compiler error.
If we use the negative-array-size method *and* the link time trick,
we get the ability to use BUILD_BUG_ON() under __builtin_constant_p()
branches, and maximal ability for the compiler to detect errors at
build time.
We also document it thoroughly.

mm, page_alloc: wakeup kcompactd even if kswapd cannot free more memory
Kswapd will not wakeup if per-zone watermarks are not failing or if too
many previous attempts at background reclaim have failed.
This can be true if there is a lot of free memory available. For high-
order allocations, kswapd is responsible for waking up kcompactd for
background compaction. If the zone is not below its watermarks or
reclaim has recently failed (lots of free memory, nothing left to
reclaim), kcompactd does not get woken up.
When __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is not allowed, allow kcompactd to still be
woken up even if kswapd will not reclaim. This allows high-order
allocations, such as thp, to still trigger background compaction even
when the zone has an abundance of free memory.

mm: use sc->priority for slab shrink targets
Previously we were using the ratio of the number of lru pages scanned to
the number of eligible lru pages to determine the number of slab objects
to scan. The problem with this is that these two things have nothing to
do with each other, so in slab heavy work loads where there is little to
no page cache we can end up with the pages scanned being a very low
number. This means that we reclaim next to no slab pages and waste a
lot of time reclaiming small amounts of space.

writeback: move global_dirty_limit into wb_domain
This patch is a part of the series to define wb_domain which
represents a domain that wb's (bdi_writeback's) belong to and are
measured against each other in. This will enable IO backpressure
propagation for cgroup writeback.
global_dirty_limit exists to regulate the global dirty threshold which
is a property of the wb_domain. This patch moves hard_dirty_limit,
dirty_lock, and update_time into wb_domain.

Fix: network instrumentation handling of corrupted TCP headers
A malformed packet may contain a valid IPv4/IPv6 header, but an
inconsistent TCP header. As a result, the trace contains a fully
formed IPv4/IPv6 header, including the "protocol" or "nexthdr"
fields indicating TCP, but no following TCP header.
This scenario leads to an unreadable CTF trace, because the
trace viewer expects a TCP header, but instead gets the next
event.
Therefore, using the IP header fields as selector for the
transport layer variant is not the right approach: introduce
our own selector field, which allows to properly deal with this
corner-case.

The debian version script only worked for ckt kernels and that was fine

ckt (Canonical Kernel Team) kernels were used for a while during the jessie
cycle, their versionning is a bit different. They track the upstream vanilla
stable updates but they don't update the minor version number and instead add
an additionnal -cktX. They were all 3.16.7-cktX and after a while the version
switched back to upstream style at 3.16.36.

Fix: ACCESS_ONCE() removed in kernel 4.15
The ACCESS_ONCE() macro was removed in kernel 4.15 and should be
replaced by READ_ONCE and WRITE_ONCE which were introduced in kernel

This commit replaces all calls to ACCESS_ONCE() with the appropriate
READ_ONCE or WRITE_ONCE and adds compatibility macros for kernels that

locking/atomics, mm: Convert ACCESS_ONCE() to READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE()
For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in
preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the
former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of
ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't currently harmful.
However, for some features it is necessary to instrument reads and
writes separately, which is not possible with ACCESS_ONCE(). This
distinction is critical to correct operation.
It's possible to transform the bulk of kernel code using the Coccinelle
script below. However, this doesn't handle comments, leaving references
to ACCESS_ONCE() instances which have been removed. As a preparatory
step, this patch converts the mm code and comments to use
{READ,WRITE}_ONCE() consistently.

timer: Prepare to change timer callback argument type
Modern kernel callback systems pass the structure associated with a
given callback to the callback function. The timer callback remains one
of the legacy cases where an arbitrary unsigned long argument continues
to be passed as the callback argument. This has several problems:
- This bloats the timer_list structure with a normally redundant
.data field.
- No type checking is being performed, forcing callbacks to do
explicit type casts of the unsigned long argument into the object
that was passed, rather than using container_of(), as done in most
of the other callback infrastructure.
- Neighboring buffer overflows can overwrite both the .function and
the .data field, providing attackers with a way to elevate from a buffer
overflow into a simplistic ROP-like mechanism that allows calling
arbitrary functions with a controlled first argument.
- For future Control Flow Integrity work, this creates a unique function
prototype for timer callbacks, instead of allowing them to continue to
be clustered with other void functions that take a single unsigned long
argument.
This adds a new timer initialization API, which will ultimately replace
the existing setup_timer(), setup_{deferrable,pinned,etc}_timer() family,
named timer_setup() (to mirror hrtimer_setup(), making instances of its
use much easier to grep for).
In order to support the migration of existing timers into the new
callback arguments, timer_setup() casts its arguments to the existing
legacy types, and explicitly passes the timer pointer as the legacy
data argument. Once all setup_*timer() callers have been replaced with
timer_setup(), the casts can be removed, and the data argument can be
dropped with the timer expiration code changed to just pass the timer
to the callback directly.

to the callback directly.
Since the regular pattern of using container_of() during local variable
declaration repeats the need for the variable type declaration
to be included, this adds a helper modeled after other from_*()
helpers that wrap container_of(), named from_timer(). This helper uses
typeof(*variable), removing the type redundancy and minimizing the need
for line wraps in forthcoming conversions from "unsigned data long" to
"struct timer_list *" in the timer callbacks:
-void callback(unsigned long data)
+void callback(struct timer_list *t)
{
- struct some_data_structure *local = (struct some_data_structure *)data;
+ struct some_data_structure *local = from_timer(local, t, timer);
Finally, in order to support the handful of timer users that perform
open-coded assignments of the .function (and .data) fields, provide
cast macros (TIMER_FUNC_TYPE and TIMER_DATA_TYPE) that can be used
temporarily. Once conversion has been completed, these can be globally
trivially removed.

treewide: setup_timer() -> timer_setup()
This converts all remaining cases of the old setup_timer() API into using
timer_setup(), where the callback argument is the structure already
holding the struct timer_list. These should have no behavioral changes,
since they just change which pointer is passed into the callback with
the same available pointers after conversion. It handles the following
examples, in addition to some other variations.

Fix: lttng_kvmalloc helper NULL pointer OOPS
The static function __vmalloc_node is not visible by KALLSYMS_ALL on at
least some kernels, which leads to a call to a NULL function when trying
to perform allocation of lttng buffer memory under memory fragmentation
conditions (kmalloc_node failure).
Use __vmalloc_node_range instead, and check that the returned pointer
is non-NULL to ensure this type of failure does not happen in any
condition.
Fallback to __vmalloc(), even though it is not NUMA-aware, in case
we fail to find __vmalloc_node_range, and print an explicit warning

mm: move most file-based accounting to the node
There are now a number of accounting oddities such as mapped file pages
being accounted for on the node while the total number of file pages are
accounted on the zone. This can be coped with to some extent but it's
confusing so this patch moves the relevant file-based accounted. Due to
throttling logic in the page allocator for reliable OOM detection, it is
still necessary to track dirty and writeback pages on a per-zone basis.

mm: move vmscan writes and file write accounting to the node
As reclaim is now node-based, it follows that page write activity due to
page reclaim should also be accounted for on the node. For consistency,
also account page writes and page dirtying on a per-node basis.
After this patch, there are a few remaining zone counters that may appear
strange but are fine. NUMA stats are still per-zone as this is a
user-space interface that tools consume. NR_MLOCK, NR_SLAB_*,
NR_PAGETABLE, NR_KERNEL_STACK and NR_BOUNCE are all allocations that
potentially pin low memory and cannot trivially be reclaimed on demand.
This information is still useful for debugging a page allocation failure
warning.

block: replace bi_bdev with a gendisk pointer and partitions index
This way we don't need a block_device structure to submit I/O. The
block_device has different life time rules from the gendisk and
request_queue and is usually only available when the block device node
is open. Other callers need to explicitly create one (e.g. the lightnvm
passthrough code, or the new nvme multipathing code).
For the actual I/O path all that we need is the gendisk, which exists
once per block device. But given that the block layer also does
partition remapping we additionally need a partition index, which is
used for said remapping in generic_make_request.
Note that all the block drivers generally want request_queue or
sometimes the gendisk, so this removes a layer of indirection all
over the stack.

mm: introduce kv[mz]alloc helpers
Patch series "kvmalloc", v5.
There are many open coded kmalloc with vmalloc fallback instances in the
tree. Most of them are not careful enough or simply do not care about
the underlying semantic of the kmalloc/page allocator which means that
a) some vmalloc fallbacks are basically unreachable because the kmalloc
part will keep retrying until it succeeds b) the page allocator can
invoke a really disruptive steps like the OOM killer to move forward
which doesn't sound appropriate when we consider that the vmalloc
fallback is available.
As it can be seen implementing kvmalloc requires quite an intimate
knowledge if the page allocator and the memory reclaim internals which
strongly suggests that a helper should be implemented in the memory
subsystem proper.
Most callers, I could find, have been converted to use the helper
instead. This is patch 6. There are some more relying on __GFP_REPEAT
in the networking stack which I have converted as well and Eric Dumazet
was not opposed [2] to convert them as well.

This patch (of 9):
Using kmalloc with the vmalloc fallback for larger allocations is a
common pattern in the kernel code. Yet we do not have any common helper
for that and so users have invented their own helpers. Some of them are
really creative when doing so. Let's just add kv[mz]alloc and make sure
it is implemented properly. This implementation makes sure to not make
a large memory pressure for > PAGE_SZE requests (__GFP_NORETRY) and also
to not warn about allocation failures. This also rules out the OOM
killer as the vmalloc is a more approapriate fallback than a disruptive
user visible action.

Fix: mmap: caches aliased on virtual addresses
Some architectures (e.g. implementations of arm64) implement their
caches based on the virtual addresses (rather than physical address).
It has the upside of making the cache access faster (no TLB lookup
required to access the cache line), but the downside of requiring
virtual mappings (e.g. kernel vs user-space) to be aligned on the number
of bits used for cache aliasing.
Perform dcache flushing for the entire sub-buffer in the get_subbuf
operation on those architectures, thus ensuring we don't end up with
cache aliasing issues.
An alternative approach we could eventually take would be to create a
kernel mapping for the ring buffer that is aligned with the user-space
mapping.

Therefore, add the "flush empty" behavior as a new ioctl to the ring
