Merge branch 'locking-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The biggest part of this tree is the new auto-generated atomics API
wrappers by Mark Rutland.
The primary motivation was to allow instrumentation without uglifying
the primary source code.
The linecount increase comes from adding the auto-generated files to
the Git space as well:
include/asm-generic/atomic-instrumented.h | 1689 ++++++++++++++++--
include/asm-generic/atomic-long.h | 1174 ++++++++++---
include/linux/atomic-fallback.h | 2295 +++++++++++++++++++++++++
include/linux/atomic.h | 1241 +------------
I preferred this approach, so that the full call stack of the (already
complex) locking APIs is still fully visible in 'git grep'.
But if this is excessive we could certainly hide them.
There's a separate build-time mechanism to determine whether the
headers are out of date (they should never be stale if we do our job
right).
Anyway, nothing from this should be visible to regular kernel
developers.
Other changes:
- Add support for dynamic keys, which removes a source of false
positives in the workqueue code, among other things (Bart Van
Assche)
- Updates to tools/memory-model (Andrea Parri, Paul E. McKenney)
- qspinlock, wake_q and lockdep micro-optimizations (Waiman Long)
- misc other updates and enhancements"

mm: remove zone_lru_lock() function, access ->lru_lock directly
We have common pattern to access lru_lock from a page pointer: zone_lru_lock(page_zone(page)) Which is silly, because it unfolds to this: &NODE_DATA(page_to_nid(page))->node_zones[page_zonenum(page)]->zone_pgdat->lru_lock while we can simply do &NODE_DATA(page_to_nid(page))->lru_lock Remove zone_lru_lock() function, since it's only complicate things.

mm: update get_user_pages_longterm to migrate pages allocated from CMA region
This patch updates get_user_pages_longterm to migrate pages allocated out of CMA region. This makes sure that we don't keep non-movable pages (due to page reference count) in the CMA area. This will be used by ppc64 in a later patch to avoid pinning pages in the CMA region. ppc64 uses CMA region for allocation of the hardware page table (hash page table) and not able to migrate pages out of CMA region results in page table allocation failures. One case where we hit this easy is when a guest using a VFIO passthrough device. VFIO locks all the guest's memory and if the guest memory is backed by CMA region, it becomes unmovable resulting in fragmenting the CMA and possibly preventing other guests from allocation a large enough hash page table. NOTE: We allocate the new page without using __GFP_THISNODE Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190114095438.32470-3-aneesh.kumar@linux.ibm.com Signed-off-by: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.ibm.com> Cc: Alexey Kardashevskiy <aik@ozlabs.ru> Cc: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@redhat.com> Cc: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au> Cc: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@kernel.org> Cc: Mel Gorman <mgorman@techsingularity.net> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> |

mm/cma: add PF flag to force non cma alloc
Patch series "mm/kvm/vfio/ppc64: Migrate compound pages out of CMA region", v8. ppc64 uses the CMA area for the allocation of guest page table (hash page table). We won't be able to start guest if we fail to allocate hash page table. We have observed hash table allocation failure because we failed to migrate pages out of CMA region because they were pinned. This happen when we are using VFIO. VFIO on ppc64 pins the entire guest RAM. If the guest RAM pages get allocated out of CMA region, we won't be able to migrate those pages. The pages are also pinned for the lifetime of the guest. Currently we support migration of non-compound pages. With THP and with the addition of hugetlb migration we can end up allocating compound pages from CMA region. This patch series add support for migrating compound pages. This patch (of 4): Add PF_MEMALLOC_NOCMA which make sure any allocation in that context is marked non-movable and hence cannot be satisfied by CMA region. This is useful with get_user_pages_longterm where we want to take a page pin by migrating pages from CMA region. Marking the section PF_MEMALLOC_NOCMA ensures that we avoid unnecessary page migration later.

mm: better document PG_reserved
The usage of PG_reserved and how PG_reserved pages are to be treated is buried deep down in different parts of the kernel. Let's shine some light onto these details by documenting current users and expected behavior. Especially, clarify on the "Some of them might not even exist" case. These are physical memory gaps that will never be dumped as they are not marked as IORESOURCE_SYSRAM. PG_reserved does in general not hinder anybody from dumping or swapping. In some cases, these pages will not be stored in the hibernation image.

mm: rid swapoff of quadratic complexity
This patch was initially posted by Kelley Nielsen. Reposting the patch with all review comments addressed and with minor modifications and optimizations. Also, folding in the fixes offered by Hugh Dickins and Huang Ying. Tests were rerun and commit message updated with new results. try_to_unuse() is of quadratic complexity, with a lot of wasted effort. It unuses swap entries one by one, potentially iterating over all the page tables for all the processes in the system for each one. This new proposed implementation of try_to_unuse simplifies its complexity to linear. It iterates over the system's mms once, unusing all the affected entries as it walks each set of page tables. It also makes similar changes to shmem_unuse. Improvement swapoff was called on a swap partition containing about 6G of data, in a VM(8cpu, 16G RAM), and calls to unuse_pte_range() were counted. Present implementation....about 1200M calls(8min, avg 80% cpu util). Prototype.................about 9.0K calls(3min, avg 5% cpu util). Details In shmem_unuse(), iterate over the shmem_swaplist and, for each shmem_inode_info that contains a swap entry, pass it to shmem_unuse_inode(), along with the swap type. In shmem_unuse_inode(), iterate over its associated xarray, and store the index and value of each swap entry in an array for passing to shmem_swapin_page() outside of the RCU critical section. In try_to_unuse(), instead of iterating over the entries in the type and unusing them one by one, perhaps walking all the page tables for all the processes for each one, iterate over the mmlist, making one pass. Pass each mm to unuse_mm() to begin its page table walk, and during the walk, unuse all the ptes that have backing store in the swap type received by try_to_unuse(). After the walk, check the type for orphaned swap entries with find_next_to_unuse(), and remove them from the swap cache. If find_next_to_unuse() starts over at the beginning of the type, repeat the check of the shmem_swaplist and the walk a maximum of three times. Change unuse_mm() and the intervening walk functions down to unuse_pte_range() to take the type as a parameter, and to iterate over their entire range, calling the next function down on every iteration. In unuse_pte_range(), make a swap entry from each pte in the range using the passed in type. If it has backing store in the type, call swapin_readahead() to retrieve the page and pass it to unuse_pte(). Pass the count of pages_to_unuse down the page table walks in try_to_unuse(), and return from the walk when the desired number of pages has been swapped back in.

fs: kernfs: add poll file operation
Patch series "psi: pressure stall monitors", v3.
Android is adopting psi to detect and remedy memory pressure that
results in stuttering and decreased responsiveness on mobile devices.
Psi gives us the stall information, but because we're dealing with
latencies in the millisecond range, periodically reading the pressure
files to detect stalls in a timely fashion is not feasible. Psi also
doesn't aggregate its averages at a high enough frequency right now.
This patch series extends the psi interface such that users can
configure sensitive latency thresholds and use poll() and friends to be
notified when these are breached.
As high-frequency aggregation is costly, it implements an aggregation
method that is optimized for fast, short-interval averaging, and makes
the aggregation frequency adaptive, such that high-frequency updates
only happen while monitored stall events are actively occurring.
With these patches applied, Android can monitor for, and ward off,
mounting memory shortages before they cause problems for the user. For
example, using memory stall monitors in userspace low memory killer
daemon (lmkd) we can detect mounting pressure and kill less important
processes before device becomes visibly sluggish.
In our memory stress testing psi memory monitors produce roughly 10x
less false positives compared to vmpressure signals. Having ability to
specify multiple triggers for the same psi metric allows other parts of
Android framework to monitor memory state of the device and act
accordingly.
The new interface is straightforward. The user opens one of the
pressure files for writing and writes a trigger description into the
file descriptor that defines the stall state - some or full, and the
maximum stall time over a given window of time. E.g.:
/* Signal when stall time exceeds 100ms of a 1s window */
char trigger[] = "full 100000 1000000";
fd = open("/proc/pressure/memory");
write(fd, trigger, sizeof(trigger));
while (poll() >= 0) {
...
}
close(fd);
When the monitored stall state is entered, psi adapts its aggregation
frequency according to what the configured time window requires in order
to emit event signals in a timely fashion. Once the stalling subsides,
aggregation reverts back to normal.
The trigger is associated with the open file descriptor. To stop
monitoring, the user only needs to close the file descriptor and the
trigger is discarded.
Patches 1-4 prepare the psi code for polling support. Patch 5
implements the adaptive polling logic, the pressure growth detection
optimized for short intervals, and hooks up write() and poll() on the
pressure files.
The patches were developed in collaboration with Johannes Weiner.
This patch (of 5):
Kernfs has a standardized poll/notification mechanism for waking all
pollers on all fds when a filesystem node changes. To allow polling for
custom events, add a .poll callback that can override the default.
This is in preparation for pollable cgroup pressure files which have
per-fd trigger configurations.

mm, compaction: capture a page under direct compaction
Compaction is inherently race-prone as a suitable page freed during
compaction can be allocated by any parallel task. This patch uses a
capture_control structure to isolate a page immediately when it is freed
by a direct compactor in the slow path of the page allocator. The
intent is to avoid redundant scanning.

Latency is only moderately affected but the devil is in the details. A

latency of huge pages is increased as it takes creater care to succeed.

mm, compaction: be selective about what pageblocks to clear skip hints
Pageblock hints are cleared when compaction restarts or kswapd makes enough progress that it can sleep but it's over-eager in that the bit is cleared for migration sources with no LRU pages and migration targets with no free pages. As pageblock skip hint flushes are relatively rare and out-of-band with respect to kswapd, this patch makes a few more expensive checks to see if it's appropriate to even clear the bit. Every pageblock that is not cleared will avoid 512 pages being scanned unnecessarily on x86-64. The impact is variable with different workloads showing small differences in latency, success rates and scan rates. This is expected as clearing the hints is not that common but doing a small amount of work out-of-band to avoid a large amount of work in-band later is generally a good thing.

mm, compaction: use free lists to quickly locate a migration source
The migration scanner is a linear scan of a zone with a potentiall large
search space. Furthermore, many pageblocks are unusable such as those
filled with reserved pages or partially filled with pages that cannot
migrate. These still get scanned in the common case of allocating a THP
and the cost accumulates.
The patch uses a partial search of the free lists to locate a migration
source candidate that is marked as MOVABLE when allocating a THP. It
prefers picking a block with a larger number of free pages already on
the basis that there are fewer pages to migrate to free the entire
block. The lowest PFN found during searches is tracked as the basis of
the start for the linear search after the first search of the free list
fails. After the search, the free list is shuffled so that the next
search will not encounter the same page. If the search fails then the
subsequent searches will be shorter and the linear scanner is used.
If this search fails, or if the request is for a small or
unmovable/reclaimable allocation then the linear scanner is still used.
It is somewhat pointless to use the list search in those cases. Small
free pages must be used for the search and there is no guarantee that
movable pages are located within that block that are contiguous.

mm: shuffle GFP_* flags
GFP_KERNEL is one of the most used constant but on archs like arm with fixed length instruction some constants are more equal than the others. Constants with tightly packed bits can be injected directly into instruction stream: 0: e3a00d33 mov r0, #3264 ; 0xcc0 Others require multiple instructions or even loading out of instruction stream: 0: e3a000c0 mov r0, #192 ; 0xc0 4: e3400060 movt r0, #96 ; 0x60 Shuffle GFP_* flags so that GFP_KERNEL/GFP_ATOMIC + __GFP_ZERO bits are close to each other. Savings on arm configs are ~0.1%.

mm/hugetlb: enable arch specific huge page size support for migration
Architectures like arm64 have HugeTLB page sizes which are different than generic sizes at PMD, PUD, PGD level and implemented via contiguous bits. At present these special size HugeTLB pages cannot be identified through macros like (PMD|PUD|PGDIR)_SHIFT and hence chosen not be migrated. Enabling migration support for these special HugeTLB page sizes along with the generic ones (PMD|PUD|PGD) would require identifying all of them on a given platform. A platform specific hook can precisely enumerate all huge page sizes supported for migration. Instead of comparing against standard huge page orders let hugetlb_migration_support() function call a platform hook arch_hugetlb_migration_support(). Default definition for the platform hook maintains existing semantics which checks standard huge page order. But an architecture can choose to override the default and provide support for a comprehensive set of huge page sizes.

mm/hugetlb: distinguish between migratability and movability
Patch series "arm64/mm: Enable HugeTLB migration", v4.
This patch series enables HugeTLB migration support for all supported
huge page sizes at all levels including contiguous bit implementation.
Following HugeTLB migration support matrix has been enabled with this
patch series. All permutations have been tested except for the 16GB.
CONT PTE PMD CONT PMD PUD
-------- --- -------- ---
4K: 64K 2M 32M 1G
16K: 2M 32M 1G
64K: 2M 512M 16G
First the series adds migration support for PUD based huge pages. It
then adds a platform specific hook to query an architecture if a given
huge page size is supported for migration while also providing a default
fallback option preserving the existing semantics which just checks for
(PMD|PUD|PGDIR)_SHIFT macros. The last two patches enables HugeTLB
migration on arm64 and subscribe to this new platform specific hook by
defining an override.
The second patch differentiates between movability and migratability
aspects of huge pages and implements hugepage_movable_supported() which
can then be used during allocation to decide whether to place the huge
page in movable zone or not.
This patch (of 5):
During huge page allocation it's migratability is checked to determine
if it should be placed under movable zones with GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE.
But the movability aspect of the huge page could depend on other factors
than just migratability. Movability in itself is a distinct property
which should not be tied with migratability alone.
This differentiates these two and implements an enhanced movability check
which also considers huge page size to determine if it is feasible to be
placed under a movable zone. At present it just checks for gigantic pages
but going forward it can incorporate other enhanced checks.

mm: reuse only-pte-mapped KSM page in do_wp_page()
Add an optimization for KSM pages almost in the same way that we have for ordinary anonymous pages. If there is a write fault in a page, which is mapped to an only pte, and it is not related to swap cache; the page may be reused without copying its content. [ Note that we do not consider PageSwapCache() pages at least for now, since we don't want to complicate __get_ksm_page(), which has nice optimization based on this (for the migration case). Currenly it is spinning on PageSwapCache() pages, waiting for when they have unfreezed counters (i.e., for the migration finish). But we don't want to make it also spinning on swap cache pages, which we try to reuse, since there is not a very high probability to reuse them. So, for now we do not consider PageSwapCache() pages at all. ] So in reuse_ksm_page() we check for 1) PageSwapCache() and 2) page_stable_node(), to skip a page, which KSM is currently trying to link to stable tree. Then we do page_ref_freeze() to prohibit KSM to merge one more page into the page, we are reusing. After that, nobody can refer to the reusing page: KSM skips !PageSwapCache() pages with zero refcount; and the protection against of all other participants is the same as for reused ordinary anon pages pte lock, page lock and mmap_sem.

mm: replace all open encodings for NUMA_NO_NODE
Patch series "Replace all open encodings for NUMA_NO_NODE", v3. All these places for replacement were found by running the following grep patterns on the entire kernel code. Please let me know if this might have missed some instances. This might also have replaced some false positives. I will appreciate suggestions, inputs and review. 1. git grep "nid == -1" 2. git grep "node == -1" 3. git grep "nid = -1" 4. git grep "node = -1" This patch (of 2): At present there are multiple places where invalid node number is encoded as -1. Even though implicitly understood it is always better to have macros in there. Replace these open encodings for an invalid node number with the global macro NUMA_NO_NODE. This helps remove NUMA related assumptions like 'invalid node' from various places redirecting them to a common definition.

mm: convert PG_balloon to PG_offline
PG_balloon was introduced to implement page migration/compaction for pages inflated in virtio-balloon. Nowadays, it is only a marker that a page is part of virtio-balloon and therefore logically offline. We also want to make use of this flag in other balloon drivers - for inflated pages or when onlining a section but keeping some pages offline (e.g. used right now by XEN and Hyper-V via set_online_page_callback()). We are going to expose this flag to dump tools like makedumpfile. But instead of exposing PG_balloon, let's generalize the concept of marking pages as logically offline, so it can be reused for other purposes later on. Rename PG_balloon to PG_offline. This is an indicator that the page is logically offline, the content stale and that it should not be touched (e.g. a hypervisor would have to allocate backing storage in order for the guest to dump an unused page). We can then e.g. exclude such pages from dumps. We replace and reuse KPF_BALLOON (23), as this shouldn't really harm (and for now the semantics stay the same). In following patches, we will make use of this bit also in other balloon drivers. While at it, document PGTABLE.

mm: balloon: update comment about isolation/migration/compaction
Patch series "mm/kdump: allow to exclude pages that are logically
offline"
Right now, pages inflated as part of a balloon driver will be dumped by
dump tools like makedumpfile. While XEN is able to check in the crash
kernel whether a certain pfn is actuall backed by memory in the
hypervisor (see xen_oldmem_pfn_is_ram) and optimize this case, dumps of
virtio-balloon, hv-balloon and VMWare balloon inflated memory will
essentially result in zero pages getting allocated by the hypervisor and
the dump getting filled with this data.
The allocation and reading of zero pages can directly be avoided if a
dumping tool could know which pages only contain stale information not
to be dumped.
Also for XEN, calling into the kernel and asking the hypervisor if a pfn
is backed can be avoided if the duming tool would skip such pages right
from the beginning.
Dumping tools have no idea whether a given page is part of a balloon
driver and shall not be dumped. Esp. PG_reserved cannot be used for
that purpose as all memory allocated during early boot is also
PG_reserved, see discussion at [1]. So some other way of indication is
required and a new page flag is frowned upon.
We have PG_balloon (MAPCOUNT value), which is essentially unused now. I
suggest renaming it to something more generic (PG_offline) to mark pages
as logically offline. This flag can than e.g. also be used by
virtio-mem in the future to mark subsections as offline. Or by other
code that wants to put pages logically offline (e.g. later maybe
poisoned pages that shall no longer be used).
This series converts PG_balloon to PG_offline, allows dumping tools to
query the value to detect such pages and marks pages in the hv-balloon
and XEN balloon properly as PG_offline. Note that virtio-balloon
already set pages to PG_balloon (and now PG_offline).
Please note that this is also helpful for a problem we were seeing under
Hyper-V: Dumping logically offline memory (pages kept fake offline while
onlining a section via online_page_callback) would under some condicions
result in a kernel panic when dumping them.
As I don't have access to neither XEN nor Hyper-V nor VMWare
installations, this was only tested with the virtio-balloon and pages
were properly skipped when dumping. I'll also attach the makedumpfile
patch to this series.

mm/page_alloc.c: memory hotplug: free pages as higher order
When freeing pages are done with higher order, time spent on coalescing pages by buddy allocator can be reduced. With section size of 256MB, hot add latency of a single section shows improvement from 50-60 ms to less than 1 ms, hence improving the hot add latency by 60 times. Modify external providers of online callback to align with the change.

kasan: fix kasan_check_read/write definitions
Building little-endian allmodconfig kernels on arm64 started failing with the generated atomic.h implementation, since we now try to call kasan helpers from the EFI stub: aarch64-linux-gnu-ld: drivers/firmware/efi/libstub/arm-stub.stub.o: in function `atomic_set': include/generated/atomic-instrumented.h:44: undefined reference to `__efistub_kasan_check_write' I suspect that we get similar problems in other files that explicitly disable KASAN for some reason but call atomic_t based helper functions. We can fix this by checking the predefined __SANITIZE_ADDRESS__ macro that the compiler sets instead of checking CONFIG_KASAN, but this in turn requires a small hack in mm/kasan/common.c so we do see the extern declaration there instead of the inline function.

f2fs: fix to check inline_xattr_size boundary correctly
We use below condition to check inline_xattr_size boundary:
if (!F2FS_OPTION(sbi).inline_xattr_size ||
F2FS_OPTION(sbi).inline_xattr_size >=
DEF_ADDRS_PER_INODE -
F2FS_TOTAL_EXTRA_ATTR_SIZE -
DEF_INLINE_RESERVED_SIZE -
DEF_MIN_INLINE_SIZE)
There is there problems in that check:
- we should allow inline_xattr_size equaling to min size of inline
{data,dentry} area.
- F2FS_TOTAL_EXTRA_ATTR_SIZE and inline_xattr_size are based on
different size unit, previous one is 4 bytes, latter one is 1 bytes.
- DEF_MIN_INLINE_SIZE only indicate min size of inline data area,
however, we need to consider min size of inline dentry area as well,
minimal inline dentry should at least contain two entries: '.' and
'..', so that min inline_dentry size is 40 bytes.
.bitmap 1 * 1 = 1
.reserved 1 * 1 = 1
.dentry 11 * 2 = 22
.filename 8 * 2 = 16
total 40

dm: add support to directly boot to a mapped device
Add a "create" module parameter, which allows device-mapper targets to be configured at boot time. This enables early use of DM targets in the boot process (as the root device or otherwise) without the need of an initramfs. The syntax used in the boot param is based on the concise format from the dmsetup tool to follow the rule of least surprise: dmsetup table --concise /dev/mapper/lroot Which is: dm-mod.create=<name>,<uuid>,<minor>,<flags>,<table>[,<table>+][;<name>,<uuid>,<minor>,<flags>,<table>[,<table>+]+] Where, <name> ::= The device name. <uuid> ::= xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx | "" <minor> ::= The device minor number | "" <flags> ::= "ro" | "rw" <table> ::= <start_sector> <num_sectors> <target_type> <target_args> <target_type> ::= "verity" | "linear" | ... For example, the following could be added in the boot parameters: dm-mod.create="lroot,,,rw, 0 4096 linear 98:16 0, 4096 4096 linear 98:32 0" root=/dev/dm-0 Only the targets that were tested are allowed and the ones that don't change any block device when the device is create as read-only. For example, mirror and cache targets are not allowed. The rationale behind this is that if the user makes a mistake, choosing the wrong device to be the mirror or the cache can corrupt data. The only targets initially allowed are: * crypt * delay * linear * snapshot-origin * striped * verity Co-developed-by: Will Drewry <wad@chromium.org> Co-developed-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Co-developed-by: Enric Balletbo i Serra <enric.balletbo@collabora.com> Signed-off-by: Helen Koike <helen.koike@collabora.com> Reviewed-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com> |

dm: fix to_sector() for 32bit
A dm-raid array with devices larger than 4GB won't assemble on
a 32 bit host since _check_data_dev_sectors() was added in 4.16.
This is because to_sector() treats its argument as an "unsigned long"
which is 32bits (4GB) on a 32bit host. Using "unsigned long long"
is more correct.
Kernels as early as 4.2 can have other problems due to to_sector()
being used on the size of a device.

signal: add pidfd_send_signal() syscall
The kill() syscall operates on process identifiers (pid). After a process
has exited its pid can be reused by another process. If a caller sends a
signal to a reused pid it will end up signaling the wrong process. This
issue has often surfaced and there has been a push to address this problem [1].
This patch uses file descriptors (fd) from proc/<pid> as stable handles on
struct pid. Even if a pid is recycled the handle will not change. The fd
can be used to send signals to the process it refers to.
Thus, the new syscall pidfd_send_signal() is introduced to solve this
problem. Instead of pids it operates on process fds (pidfd).
/* prototype and argument /*
long pidfd_send_signal(int pidfd, int sig, siginfo_t *info, unsigned int flags);
/* syscall number 424 */
The syscall number was chosen to be 424 to align with Arnd's rework in his
y2038 to minimize merge conflicts (cf. [25]).
In addition to the pidfd and signal argument it takes an additional
siginfo_t and flags argument. If the siginfo_t argument is NULL then
pidfd_send_signal() is equivalent to kill(<positive-pid>, <signal>). If it
is not NULL pidfd_send_signal() is equivalent to rt_sigqueueinfo().
The flags argument is added to allow for future extensions of this syscall.
It currently needs to be passed as 0. Failing to do so will cause EINVAL.
/* pidfd_send_signal() replaces multiple pid-based syscalls */
The pidfd_send_signal() syscall currently takes on the job of
rt_sigqueueinfo(2) and parts of the functionality of kill(2), Namely, when a
positive pid is passed to kill(2). It will however be possible to also
replace tgkill(2) and rt_tgsigqueueinfo(2) if this syscall is extended.
/* sending signals to threads (tid) and process groups (pgid) */
Specifically, the pidfd_send_signal() syscall does currently not operate on
process groups or threads. This is left for future extensions.
In order to extend the syscall to allow sending signal to threads and
process groups appropriately named flags (e.g. PIDFD_TYPE_PGID, and
PIDFD_TYPE_TID) should be added. This implies that the flags argument will
determine what is signaled and not the file descriptor itself. Put in other
words, grouping in this api is a property of the flags argument not a
property of the file descriptor (cf. [13]). Clarification for this has been
requested by Eric (cf. [19]).
When appropriate extensions through the flags argument are added then
pidfd_send_signal() can additionally replace the part of kill(2) which
operates on process groups as well as the tgkill(2) and
rt_tgsigqueueinfo(2) syscalls.
How such an extension could be implemented has been very roughly sketched
in [14], [15], and [16]. However, this should not be taken as a commitment
to a particular implementation. There might be better ways to do it.
Right now this is intentionally left out to keep this patchset as simple as
possible (cf. [4]).
/* naming */
The syscall had various names throughout iterations of this patchset:
- procfd_signal()
- procfd_send_signal()
- taskfd_send_signal()
In the last round of reviews it was pointed out that given that if the
flags argument decides the scope of the signal instead of different types
of fds it might make sense to either settle for "procfd_" or "pidfd_" as
prefix. The community was willing to accept either (cf. [17] and [18]).
Given that one developer expressed strong preference for the "pidfd_"
prefix (cf. [13]) and with other developers less opinionated about the name
we should settle for "pidfd_" to avoid further bikeshedding.
The "_send_signal" suffix was chosen to reflect the fact that the syscall
takes on the job of multiple syscalls. It is therefore intentional that the
name is not reminiscent of neither kill(2) nor rt_sigqueueinfo(2). Not the
fomer because it might imply that pidfd_send_signal() is a replacement for
kill(2), and not the latter because it is a hassle to remember the correct
spelling - especially for non-native speakers - and because it is not
descriptive enough of what the syscall actually does. The name
"pidfd_send_signal" makes it very clear that its job is to send signals.
/* zombies */
Zombies can be signaled just as any other process. No special error will be
reported since a zombie state is an unreliable state (cf. [3]). However,
this can be added as an extension through the @flags argument if the need
ever arises.
/* cross-namespace signals */
The patch currently enforces that the signaler and signalee either are in
the same pid namespace or that the signaler's pid namespace is an ancestor
of the signalee's pid namespace. This is done for the sake of simplicity
and because it is unclear to what values certain members of struct
siginfo_t would need to be set to (cf. [5], [6]).
/* compat syscalls */
It became clear that we would like to avoid adding compat syscalls
(cf. [7]). The compat syscall handling is now done in kernel/signal.c
itself by adding __copy_siginfo_from_user_generic() which lets us avoid
compat syscalls (cf. [8]). It should be noted that the addition of
__copy_siginfo_from_user_any() is caused by a bug in the original
implementation of rt_sigqueueinfo(2) (cf. 12).
With upcoming rework for syscall handling things might improve
significantly (cf. [11]) and __copy_siginfo_from_user_any() will not gain
any additional callers.
/* testing */
This patch was tested on x64 and x86.
/* userspace usage */
An asciinema recording for the basic functionality can be found under [9].
With this patch a process can be killed via:
#define _GNU_SOURCE
#include <errno.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <signal.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>

#include <sys/syscall.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <unistd.h>
static inline int do_pidfd_send_signal(int pidfd, int sig, siginfo_t *info,
unsigned int flags)
{
#ifdef __NR_pidfd_send_signal
return syscall(__NR_pidfd_send_signal, pidfd, sig, info, flags);
#else
return -ENOSYS;
#endif
}
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
int fd, ret, saved_errno, sig;
if (argc < 3)
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
fd = open(argv[1], O_DIRECTORY | O_CLOEXEC);
if (fd < 0) {
printf("%s - Failed to open \"%s\"\n", strerror(errno), argv[1]);
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
sig = atoi(argv[2]);
printf("Sending signal %d to process %s\n", sig, argv[1]);
ret = do_pidfd_send_signal(fd, sig, NULL, 0);
saved_errno = errno;
close(fd);
errno = saved_errno;
if (ret < 0) {
printf("%s - Failed to send signal %d to process %s\n",
strerror(errno), sig, argv[1]);
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);
}

Q-01: (Florian Weimer [20], Andrew Morton [21])
What happens when the target process has exited?
A-01: Sending the signal will fail with ESRCH (cf. [22]).
Q-02: (Andrew Morton [21])
Is the task_struct pinned by the fd?
A-02: No. A reference to struct pid is kept. struct pid - as far as I
understand - was created exactly for the reason to not require to
pin struct task_struct (cf. [22]).
Q-03: (Andrew Morton [21])
Does the entire procfs directory remain visible? Just one entry
within it?
A-03: The same thing that happens right now when you hold a file descriptor
to /proc/<pid> open (cf. [22]).
Q-04: (Andrew Morton [21])
Does the pid remain reserved?
A-04: No. This patchset guarantees a stable handle not that pids are not
recycled (cf. [22]).
Q-05: (Andrew Morton [21])
Do attempts to signal that fd return errors?
A-05: See {Q,A}-01.
Q-06: (Andrew Morton [22])
Is there a cleaner way of obtaining the fd? Another syscall perhaps.
A-06: Userspace can already trivially retrieve file descriptors from procfs
so this is something that we will need to support anyway. Hence,
there's no immediate need to add another syscalls just to make
pidfd_send_signal() not dependent on the presence of procfs. However,
adding a syscalls to get such file descriptors is planned for a
future patchset (cf. [22]).
Q-07: (Andrew Morton [21] and others)
This fd-for-a-process sounds like a handy thing and people may well
think up other uses for it in the future, probably unrelated to
signals. Are the code and the interface designed to permit such
future applications?
A-07: Yes (cf. [22]).
Q-08: (Andrew Morton [21] and others)
Now I think about it, why a new syscall? This thing is looking
rather like an ioctl?
A-08: This has been extensively discussed. It was agreed that a syscall is
preferred for a variety or reasons. Here are just a few taken from
prior threads. Syscalls are safer than ioctl()s especially when
signaling to fds. Processes are a core kernel concept so a syscall
seems more appropriate. The layout of the syscall with its four
arguments would require the addition of a custom struct for the
ioctl() thereby causing at least the same amount or even more
complexity for userspace than a simple syscall. The new syscall will
replace multiple other pid-based syscalls (see description above).
The file-descriptors-for-processes concept introduced with this
syscall will be extended with other syscalls in the future. See also
[22], [23] and various other threads already linked in here.
Q-09: (Florian Weimer [24])
What happens if you use the new interface with an O_PATH descriptor?
A-09:
pidfds opened as O_PATH fds cannot be used to send signals to a
process (cf. [2]). Signaling processes through pidfds is the
equivalent of writing to a file. Thus, this is not an operation that
operates "purely at the file descriptor level" as required by the
open(2) manpage. See also [4].
