Patch series "cleanup page poisoning", v3.
I have identified a number of issues and opportunities for cleanup with
CONFIG_PAGE_POISON and friends:
- interaction with init_on_alloc and init_on_free parameters depends on
the order of parameters (Patch 1)
- the boot time enabling uses static key, but inefficienty (Patch 2)
- sanity checking is incompatible with hibernation (Patch 3)
- CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING_NO_SANITY can be removed now that we have
init_on_free (Patch 4)
- CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING_ZERO can be most likely removed now that we
have init_on_free (Patch 5)
This patch (of 5):
Enabling page_poison=1 together with init_on_alloc=1 or init_on_free=1
produces a warning in dmesg that page_poison takes precedence. However,
as these warnings are printed in early_param handlers for
init_on_alloc/free, they are not printed if page_poison is enabled later
on the command line (handlers are called in the order of their
parameters), or when init_on_alloc/free is always enabled by the
respective config option - before the page_poison early param handler is
called, it is not considered to be enabled. This is inconsistent.
We can remove the dependency on order by making the init_on_* parameters
only set a boolean variable, and postponing the evaluation after all early
params have been processed. Introduce a new
init_mem_debugging_and_hardening() function for that, and move the related
debug_pagealloc processing there as well.
As a result init_mem_debugging_and_hardening() knows always accurately if
init_on_* and/or page_poison options were enabled. Thus we can also
optimize want_init_on_alloc() and want_init_on_free(). We don't need to
check page_poisoning_enabled() there, we can instead not enable the
init_on_* static keys at all, if page poisoning is enabled. This results
in a simpler and more effective code.

How do I submit patches to Android Common Kernels
-
BEST: Make all of your changes to upstream Linux. If appropriate, backport to the stable releases. These patches will be merged automatically in the corresponding common kernels. If the patch is already in upstream Linux, post a backport of the patch that conforms to the patch requirements below.
- Do not send patches upstream that contain only symbol exports. To be considered for upstream Linux,
additions of
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL()require an in-tree modular driver that uses the symbol -- so include the new driver or changes to an existing driver in the same patchset as the export. - When sending patches upstream, the commit message must contain a clear case for why the patch is needed and beneficial to the community. Enabling out-of-tree drivers or functionality is not not a persuasive case.
- Do not send patches upstream that contain only symbol exports. To be considered for upstream Linux,
additions of
-
LESS GOOD: Develop your patches out-of-tree (from an upstream Linux point-of-view). Unless these are fixing an Android-specific bug, these are very unlikely to be accepted unless they have been coordinated with kernel-team@android.com. If you want to proceed, post a patch that conforms to the patch requirements below.
Common Kernel patch requirements
- All patches must conform to the Linux kernel coding standards and pass
script/checkpatch.pl - Patches shall not break gki_defconfig or allmodconfig builds for arm, arm64, x86, x86_64 architectures (see https://source.android.com/setup/build/building-kernels)
- If the patch is not merged from an upstream branch, the subject must be tagged with the type of patch:
UPSTREAM:,BACKPORT:,FROMGIT:,FROMLIST:, orANDROID:. - All patches must have a
Change-Id:tag (see https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/Documentation/user-changeid.html) - If an Android bug has been assigned, there must be a
Bug:tag. - All patches must have a
Signed-off-by:tag by the author and the submitter
Additional requirements are listed below based on patch type
Requirements for backports from mainline Linux: UPSTREAM:, BACKPORT:
- If the patch is a cherry-pick from Linux mainline with no changes at all
- tag the patch subject with
UPSTREAM:. - add upstream commit information with a
(cherry picked from commit ...)line - Example:
- if the upstream commit message is
- tag the patch subject with
