This reverts commit 23c2d497de21f25898fbea70aeb292ab8acc8c94.
Commit 23c2d497de21 ("mm: kmemleak: take a full lowmem check in
kmemleak_*_phys()") brought false leak alarms on some archs like arm64
that does not init pfn boundary in early booting. The final solution
lands on linux-6.0: commit 0c24e061196c ("mm: kmemleak: add rbtree and
store physical address for objects allocated with PA").
Revert this commit before linux-6.0. The original issue of invalid PA
can be mitigated by additional check in devicetree.
The false alarm report is as following: Kmemleak output: (Qemu/arm64)

not change the resulting assembly with either clang/ld.lld or gcc/ld

The mempool_alloc_slab() clears __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM, however kmemleak
has __GFP_NOFAIL set all the time due to d9570ee3bd ("kmemleak:
allow to coexist with fault injection"). But, it doesn't make any sense
to have __GFP_NOFAIL and ~__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM specified at the same
time.
According to the discussion on the mailing list, the commit should be
reverted for short term solution. Catalin Marinas would follow up with
a better solution for longer term.
The failure rate of kmemleak metadata allocation may increase in some
circumstances, but this should be expected side effect.

This patch creates dedicated kmemleak objects for the .data, .bss and

If kmemleak built in to the kernel, but is disabled by default, the
debugfs file is never registered. Because of this, it is not possible
to find out if the kernel is built with kmemleak support by checking for
the presence of this file. To allow this, always register the file.
After this patch, if the file doesn't exist, kmemleak is not available
in the kernel. If writing "scan" or any other value than "clear" to
this file results in EBUSY, then kmemleak is available but is disabled
by default and can be activated via the kernel command line.
Catalin: "that's also consistent with a late disabling of kmemleak when
the debugfs entry sticks around."

A crash is observed when kmemleak_scan accesses the object->pointer,
likely due to the following race.
TASK A TASK B TASK C
kmemleak_write
(with "scan" and
NOT "scan=on")
kmemleak_scan()
create_object
kmem_cache_alloc fails
kmemleak_disable
kmemleak_do_cleanup
kmemleak_free_enabled = 0
kfree
kmemleak_free bails out
(kmemleak_free_enabled is 0)
slub frees object->pointer
update_checksum
crash - object->pointer
freed (DEBUG_PAGEALLOC)
kmemleak_do_cleanup waits for the scan thread to complete, but not for
direct call to kmemleak_scan via kmemleak_write. So add a wait for
kmemleak_scan completion before disabling kmemleak_free, and while at it
fix the comment on stop_scan_thread.

kmemleak does one slab allocation per user allocation. So if slab fault
injection is enabled to any degree, kmemleak instantly fails to allocate
and turns itself off. However, it's useful to use kmemleak with fault
injection to find leaks on error paths. On the other hand, checking
kmemleak itself is not so useful because (1) it's a debugging tool and
(2) it has a very regular allocation pattern (basically a single
allocation site, so it either works or not).
Turn off fault injection for kmemleak allocations.

Patch series "kmemcheck: kill kmemcheck", v2.
As discussed at LSF/MM, kill kmemcheck.
KASan is a replacement that is able to work without the limitation of
kmemcheck (single CPU, slow). KASan is already upstream.
We are also not aware of any users of kmemcheck (or users who don't
consider KASan as a suitable replacement).
The only objection was that since KASAN wasn't supported by all GCC
versions provided by distros at that time we should hold off for 2
years, and try again.
Now that 2 years have passed, and all distros provide gcc that supports
KASAN, kill kmemcheck again for the very same reasons.
This patch (of 4):
Remove kmemcheck annotations, and calls to kmemcheck from the kernel.

Kmemleak requires that vmalloc'ed objects have a minimum reference count
of 2: one in the corresponding vm_struct object and the other owned by
the vmalloc() caller. There are cases, however, where the original
vmalloc() returned pointer is lost and, instead, a pointer to vm_struct
is stored (see free_thread_stack()). Kmemleak currently reports such
objects as leaks.
This patch adds support for treating any surplus references to an object
as additional references to a specified object. It introduces the
kmemleak_vmalloc() API function which takes a vm_struct pointer and sets
its surplus reference passing to the actual vmalloc() returned pointer.
The __vmalloc_node_range() calling site has been modified accordingly.

Some of the kmemleak_*() callbacks in memblock, bootmem, CMA convert a
physical address to a virtual one using __va(). However, such physical
addresses may sometimes be located in highmem and using __va() is
incorrect, leading to inconsistent object tracking in kmemleak.
The following functions have been added to the kmemleak API and they take
a physical address as the object pointer. They only perform the
corresponding action if the address has a lowmem mapping:
kmemleak_alloc_phys
kmemleak_free_part_phys
kmemleak_not_leak_phys
kmemleak_ignore_phys
The affected calling places have been updated to use the new kmemleak
API.

If the user tries to disable automatic scanning early in the boot
process using e.g.:
echo scan=off > /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak
then this command will hang until SECS_FIRST_SCAN (= 60) seconds have
elapsed, even though the system is fully initialised.
We can fix this using interruptible sleep and checking if we're supposed
to stop whenever we wake up (like the rest of the code does).

This reverts commit 8f4fc071b1 ("gfp: add __GFP_NOACCOUNT").
Black-list kmem accounting policy (aka __GFP_NOACCOUNT) turned out to be
fragile and difficult to maintain, because there seem to be many more
allocations that should not be accounted than those that should be.
Besides, false accounting an allocation might result in much worse
consequences than not accounting at all, namely increased memory
consumption due to pinned dead kmem caches.
So it was decided to switch to the white-list policy. This patch
reverts bits introducing the black-list policy. The white-list policy
will be introduced later in the series.

The kmemleak memory scanning uses finer grained object->lock spinlocks
primarily to avoid races with the memory block freeing. However, the
pointer lookup in the rb tree requires the kmemleak_lock to be held.
This is currently done in the find_and_get_object() function for each
pointer-like location read during scanning. While this allows a low
latency on kmemleak_*() callbacks on other CPUs, the memory scanning is
slower.
This patch moves the kmemleak_lock outside the scan_block() loop,
acquiring/releasing it only once per scanned memory block. The
allow_resched logic is moved outside scan_block() and a new
scan_large_block() function is implemented which splits large blocks in
MAX_SCAN_SIZE chunks with cond_resched() calls in-between. A redundant
(object->flags & OBJECT_NO_SCAN) check is also removed from
scan_object().
With this patch, the kmemleak scanning performance is significantly
improved: at least 50% with lock debugging disabled and over an order of
magnitude with lock proving enabled (on an arm64 system).

While very unlikely (usually kmemleak or sl*b bug), the create_object()
function in mm/kmemleak.c may fail to insert a newly allocated object into
the rb tree. When this happens, kmemleak disables itself and prints
additional information about the object already found in the rb tree.
Such printing is done with the parent->lock acquired, however the
kmemleak_lock is already held. This is a potential race with the scanning
thread which acquires object->lock and kmemleak_lock in a
This patch removes the locking around the 'parent' object information
printing. Such object cannot be freed or removed from object_tree_root
and object_list since kmemleak_lock is already held. There is a very
small risk that some of the object data is being modified on another CPU
but the only downside is inconsistent information printing.

The kmemleak_do_cleanup() work thread already waits for the kmemleak_scan

Calling delete_object_*() on the same pointer is not a standard use case
(unless there is a bug in the code calling kmemleak_free()). However,
during kmemleak disabling (error or user triggered via /sys), there is a
potential race between kmemleak_free() calls on a CPU and
__kmemleak_do_cleanup() on a different CPU.
The current delete_object_*() implementation first performs a look-up
holding kmemleak_lock, increments the object->use_count and then
re-acquires kmemleak_lock to remove the object from object_tree_root and
object_list.
This patch simplifies the delete_object_*() mechanism to both look up
and remove an object from the object_tree_root and object_list
atomically (guarded by kmemleak_lock). This allows safe concurrent
calls to delete_object_*() on the same pointer without additional
locking for synchronising the kmemleak_free_enabled flag.
A side effect is a slight improvement in the delete_object_*() performance
by avoiding acquiring kmemleak_lock twice and incrementing/decrementing
object->use_count.

The kmemleak scanning thread can run for minutes. Callbacks like
kmemleak_free() are allowed during this time, the race being taken care
of by the object->lock spinlock. Such lock also prevents a memory block
from being freed or unmapped while it is being scanned by blocking the
kmemleak_free() -> ... -> __delete_object() function until the lock is
released in scan_object().
When a kmemleak error occurs (e.g. it fails to allocate its metadata),
kmemleak_enabled is set and __delete_object() is no longer called on
freed objects. If kmemleak_scan is running at the same time,
kmemleak_free() no longer waits for the object scanning to complete,
allowing the corresponding memory block to be freed or unmapped (in the
case of vfree()). This leads to kmemleak_scan potentially triggering a
page fault.
This patch separates the kmemleak_free() enabling/disabling from the
overall kmemleak_enabled nob so that we can defer the disabling of the
object freeing tracking until the scanning thread completed. The
kmemleak_free_part() is deliberately ignored by this patch since this is
only called during boot before the scanning thread started.

Not all kmem allocations should be accounted to memcg. The following
patch gives an example when accounting of a certain type of allocations to
memcg can effectively result in a memory leak. This patch adds the
__GFP_NOACCOUNT flag which if passed to kmalloc and friends will force the
allocation to go through the root cgroup. It will be used by the next
patch.
Note, since in case of kmemleak enabled each kmalloc implies yet another
allocation from the kmemleak_object cache, we add __GFP_NOACCOUNT to
gfp_kmemleak_mask.
Alternatively, we could introduce a per kmem cache flag disabling
accounting for all allocations of a particular kind, but (a) we would not
be able to bypass accounting for kmalloc then and (b) a kmem cache with
this flag set could not be merged with a kmem cache without this flag,
which would increase the number of global caches and therefore
fragmentation even if the memory cgroup controller is not used.
Despite its generic name, currently __GFP_NOACCOUNT disables accounting
only for kmem allocations while user page allocations are always charged.
To catch abusing of this flag, a warning is issued on an attempt of
passing it to mem_cgroup_try_charge.

kmem_cache_{create,destroy,shrink} need to get a stable value of
cpu/node online mask, because they init/destroy/access per-cpu/node
kmem_cache parts, which can be allocated or destroyed on cpu/mem
hotplug. To protect against cpu hotplug, these functions use
{get,put}_online_cpus. However, they do nothing to synchronize with
memory hotplug - taking the slab_mutex does not eliminate the
possibility of race as described in patch 2.
What we need there is something like get_online_cpus, but for memory.
We already have lock_memory_hotplug, which serves for the purpose, but
it's a bit of a hammer right now, because it's backed by a mutex. As a
result, it imposes some limitations to locking order, which are not
desirable, and can't be used just like get_online_cpus. That's why in
patch 1 I substitute it with get/put_online_mems, which work exactly
like get/put_online_cpus except they block not cpu, but memory hotplug.
[ v1 can be found at https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/6/68. I NAK'ed it by
myself, because it used an rw semaphore for get/put_online_mems,
making them dead lock prune. ]
This patch (of 2):
{un}lock_memory_hotplug, which is used to synchronize against memory
hotplug, is currently backed by a mutex, which makes it a bit of a
hammer - threads that only want to get a stable value of online nodes
mask won't be able to proceed concurrently. Also, it imposes some
strong locking ordering rules on it, which narrows down the set of its
usage scenarios.
This patch introduces get/put_online_mems, which are the same as
get/put_online_cpus, but for memory hotplug, i.e. executing a code
inside a get/put_online_mems section will guarantee a stable value of
online nodes, present pages, etc.
lock_memory_hotplug()/unlock_memory_hotplug() are removed altogether.

Commit 8910ae896c ("kmemleak: change some global variables to int"),
in addition to the atomic -> int conversion, moved the disabling of
kmemleak_early_log to the beginning of the kmemleak_init() function,
before the full kmemleak tracing is actually enabled. In this small
window, kmem_cache_create() is called by kmemleak which triggers
additional memory allocation that are not traced. This patch restores
the original logic with kmemleak_early_log disabling when kmemleak is
fully functional.
