Marco Elver 27afb7e2a5 UPSTREAM: lib/stackdepot: include gfp.h
Patch series "stackdepot, kasan, workqueue: Avoid expanding stackdepot
slabs when holding raw_spin_lock", v2.

Shuah Khan reported [1]:

 | When CONFIG_PROVE_RAW_LOCK_NESTING=y and CONFIG_KASAN are enabled,
 | kasan_record_aux_stack() runs into "BUG: Invalid wait context" when
 | it tries to allocate memory attempting to acquire spinlock in page
 | allocation code while holding workqueue pool raw_spinlock.
 |
 | There are several instances of this problem when block layer tries
 | to __queue_work(). Call trace from one of these instances is below:
 |
 |     kblockd_mod_delayed_work_on()
 |       mod_delayed_work_on()
 |         __queue_delayed_work()
 |           __queue_work() (rcu_read_lock, raw_spin_lock pool->lock held)
 |             insert_work()
 |               kasan_record_aux_stack()
 |                 kasan_save_stack()
 |                   stack_depot_save()
 |                     alloc_pages()
 |                       __alloc_pages()
 |                         get_page_from_freelist()
 |                           rm_queue()
 |                             rm_queue_pcplist()
 |                               local_lock_irqsave(&pagesets.lock, flags);
 |                               [ BUG: Invalid wait context triggered ]

PROVE_RAW_LOCK_NESTING is pointing out that (on RT kernels) the locking
rules are being violated.  More generally, memory is being allocated
from a non-preemptive context (raw_spin_lock'd c-s) where it is not
allowed.

To properly fix this, we must prevent stackdepot from replenishing its
"stack slab" pool if memory allocations cannot be done in the current
context: it's a bug to use either GFP_ATOMIC nor GFP_NOWAIT in certain
non-preemptive contexts, including raw_spin_locks (see gfp.h and commit
ab00db216c).

The only downside is that saving a stack trace may fail if: stackdepot
runs out of space AND the same stack trace has not been recorded before.
I expect this to be unlikely, and a simple experiment (boot the kernel)
didn't result in any failure to record stack trace from insert_work().

The series includes a few minor fixes to stackdepot that I noticed in
preparing the series.  It then introduces __stack_depot_save(), which
exposes the option to force stackdepot to not allocate any memory.
Finally, KASAN is changed to use the new stackdepot interface and
provide kasan_record_aux_stack_noalloc(), which is then used by
workqueue code.

This patch (of 6):

<linux/stackdepot.h> refers to gfp_t, but doesn't include gfp.h.

Fix it by including <linux/gfp.h>.

How do I submit patches to Android Common Kernels

  1. 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.
  2. 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 scripts/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:, or ANDROID:.
  • 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
        important patch from upstream

        This is the detailed description of the important patch

        Signed-off-by: Fred Jones <fred.jones@foo.org>
  • then Joe Smith would upload the patch for the common kernel as
        UPSTREAM: important patch from upstream

  • If the patch requires any changes from the upstream version, tag the patch with BACKPORT: instead of UPSTREAM:.
    • use the same tags as UPSTREAM:
    • add comments about the changes under the (cherry picked from commit ...) line
    • Example:
        BACKPORT: important patch from upstream
