drm/i915/gt: Replace kmap with its safer kmap_local_page counterpart
kmap_local_page(), unlike kmap(), performs a contextualized mapping of pages. This means the pages are mapped locally to the thread that created them, making them invisible outside the thread and safer to use. Replace kmap() and kunmap() with kmap_local_page() and kunmap_local() counterparts for improved safety.

fs: port files to file_ref
Port files to rely on file_ref reference to improve scaling and gain
overflow protection.
- We continue to WARN during get_file() in case a file that is already
marked dead is revived as get_file() is only valid if the caller
already holds a reference to the file. This hasn't changed just the
check changes.
- The semantics for epoll and ttm's dmabuf usage have changed. Both
epoll and ttm synchronize with __fput() to prevent the underlying file
from beeing freed.
(1) epoll
Explaining epoll is straightforward using a simple diagram.
Essentially, the mutex of the epoll instance needs to be taken in both
__fput() and around epi_fget() preventing the file from being freed
while it is polled or preventing the file from being resurrected.
CPU1 CPU2
fput(file)
-> __fput(file)
-> eventpoll_release(file)
-> eventpoll_release_file(file)
mutex_lock(&ep->mtx)
epi_item_poll()
-> epi_fget()
-> file_ref_get(file)
mutex_unlock(&ep->mtx)
mutex_lock(&ep->mtx);
__ep_remove()
mutex_unlock(&ep->mtx);
-> kmem_cache_free(file)
(2) ttm dmabuf
This explanation is a bit more involved. A regular dmabuf file stashed
the dmabuf in file->private_data and the file in dmabuf->file:
file->private_data = dmabuf;
dmabuf->file = file;
The generic release method of a dmabuf file handles file specific
things:
f_op->release::dma_buf_file_release()
while the generic dentry release method of a dmabuf handles dmabuf
freeing including driver specific things:
dentry->d_release::dma_buf_release()
During ttm dmabuf initialization in ttm_object_device_init() the ttm
driver copies the provided struct dma_buf_ops into a private location:
struct ttm_object_device {
spinlock_t object_lock;
struct dma_buf_ops ops;
void (*dmabuf_release)(struct dma_buf *dma_buf);
struct idr idr;
};
ttm_object_device_init(const struct dma_buf_ops *ops)
{
// copy original dma_buf_ops in private location
tdev->ops = *ops;
// stash the release method of the original struct dma_buf_ops
tdev->dmabuf_release = tdev->ops.release;
// override the release method in the copy of the struct dma_buf_ops
// with ttm's own dmabuf release method
tdev->ops.release = ttm_prime_dmabuf_release;
}
When a new dmabuf is created the struct dma_buf_ops with the overriden
release method set to ttm_prime_dmabuf_release is passed in exp_info.ops:
DEFINE_DMA_BUF_EXPORT_INFO(exp_info);
exp_info.ops = &tdev->ops;
exp_info.size = prime->size;
exp_info.flags = flags;
exp_info.priv = prime;
The call to dma_buf_export() then sets
mutex_lock_interruptible(&prime->mutex);
dma_buf = dma_buf_export(&exp_info)
{
dmabuf->ops = exp_info->ops;
}
mutex_unlock(&prime->mutex);
which creates a new dmabuf file and then install a file descriptor to
it in the callers file descriptor table:
ret = dma_buf_fd(dma_buf, flags);
When that dmabuf file is closed we now get:
fput(file)
-> __fput(file)
-> f_op->release::dma_buf_file_release()
-> dput()
-> d_op->d_release::dma_buf_release()
-> dmabuf->ops->release::ttm_prime_dmabuf_release()
mutex_lock(&prime->mutex);
if (prime->dma_buf == dma_buf)
prime->dma_buf = NULL;
mutex_unlock(&prime->mutex);
Where we can see that prime->dma_buf is set to NULL. So when we have
the following diagram:
CPU1 CPU2
fput(file)
-> __fput(file)
-> f_op->release::dma_buf_file_release()
-> dput()
-> d_op->d_release::dma_buf_release()
-> dmabuf->ops->release::ttm_prime_dmabuf_release()
ttm_prime_handle_to_fd()
mutex_lock_interruptible(&prime->mutex)
dma_buf = prime->dma_buf
dma_buf && get_dma_buf_unless_doomed(dma_buf)
-> file_ref_get(dma_buf->file)
mutex_unlock(&prime->mutex);
mutex_lock(&prime->mutex);
if (prime->dma_buf == dma_buf)
prime->dma_buf = NULL;
mutex_unlock(&prime->mutex);
-> kmem_cache_free(file)
The logic of the mechanism is the same as for epoll: sync with
__fput() preventing the file from being freed. Here the
synchronization happens through the ttm instance's prime->mutex.
Basically, the lifetime of the dma_buf and the file are tighly
coupled.
Both (1) and (2) used to call atomic_inc_not_zero() to check whether
the file has already been marked dead and then refuse to revive it.
This is only safe because both (1) and (2) sync with __fput() and thus
prevent kmem_cache_free() on the file being called and thus prevent
the file from being immediately recycled due to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU.
Both (1) and (2) have been ported from atomic_inc_not_zero() to
file_ref_get(). That means a file that is already in the process of
being marked as FILE_REF_DEAD:
file_ref_put()
cnt = atomic_long_dec_return()
-> __file_ref_put(cnt)
if (cnt == FIlE_REF_NOREF)
atomic_long_try_cmpxchg_release(cnt, FILE_REF_DEAD)
can be revived again:
CPU1 CPU2
file_ref_put()
cnt = atomic_long_dec_return()
-> __file_ref_put(cnt)
if (cnt == FIlE_REF_NOREF)
file_ref_get()
// Brings reference back to FILE_REF_ONEREF
atomic_long_add_negative()
atomic_long_try_cmpxchg_release(cnt, FILE_REF_DEAD)
This is fine and inherent to the file_ref_get()/file_ref_put()
semantics. For both (1) and (2) this is safe because __fput() is
prevented from making progress if file_ref_get() fails due to the
aforementioned synchronization mechanisms.
Two cases need to be considered that affect both (1) epoll and (2) ttm
dmabuf:
(i) fput()'s file_ref_put() and marks the file as FILE_REF_NOREF but
before that fput() can mark the file as FILE_REF_DEAD someone
manages to sneak in a file_ref_get() and brings the refcount back
from FILE_REF_NOREF to FILE_REF_ONEREF. In that case the original
fput() doesn't call __fput(). For epoll the poll will finish and
for ttm dmabuf the file can be used again. For ttm dambuf this is
actually an advantage because it avoids immediately allocating
a new dmabuf object.
CPU1 CPU2
file_ref_put()
cnt = atomic_long_dec_return()
-> __file_ref_put(cnt)
if (cnt == FIlE_REF_NOREF)
file_ref_get()
// Brings reference back to FILE_REF_ONEREF
atomic_long_add_negative()
atomic_long_try_cmpxchg_release(cnt, FILE_REF_DEAD)
(ii) fput()'s file_ref_put() marks the file FILE_REF_NOREF and
also suceeds in actually marking it FILE_REF_DEAD and then calls
into __fput() to free the file.
When either (1) or (2) call file_ref_get() they fail as
atomic_long_add_negative() will return true.
At the same time, both (1) and (2) all file_ref_get() under
mutexes that __fput() must also acquire preventing
kmem_cache_free() from freeing the file.
So while this might be treated as a change in semantics for (1) and
(2) it really isn't. It if should end up causing issues this can be
fixed by adding a helper that does something like:
long cnt = atomic_long_read(&ref->refcnt);
do {
if (cnt < 0)
return false;
} while (!atomic_long_try_cmpxchg(&ref->refcnt, &cnt, cnt + 1));
return true;
which would block FILE_REF_NOREF to FILE_REF_ONEREF transitions.
- Jann correctly pointed out that kmem_cache_zalloc() cannot be used
anymore once files have been ported to file_ref_t.
The kmem_cache_zalloc() call will memset() the whole struct file to
zero when it is reallocated. This will also set file->f_ref to zero
which mens that a concurrent file_ref_get() can return true:
CPU1 CPU2
__get_file_rcu()
rcu_dereference_raw()
close()
[frees file]
alloc_empty_file()
kmem_cache_zalloc()
[reallocates same file]
memset(..., 0, ...)
file_ref_get()
[increments 0->1, returns true]
init_file()
file_ref_init(..., 1)
[sets to 0]
rcu_dereference_raw()
fput()
file_ref_put()
[decrements 0->FILE_REF_NOREF, frees file]
[UAF]
causing a concurrent __get_file_rcu() call to acquire a reference to
the file that is about to be reallocated and immediately freeing it
on realizing that it has been recycled. This causes a UAF for the
task that reallocated/recycled the file.
This is prevented by switching from kmem_cache_zalloc() to
kmem_cache_alloc() and initializing the fields manually. With
file->f_ref initialized last.
Note that a memset() also isn't guaranteed to atomically update an
unsigned long so it's theoretically possible to see torn and
therefore bogus counter values.

[1]: Overhead
To measure the overhead we are comparing the following configurations:
(1) Baseline with CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM=n
(2) Disabled by default (CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING=y &&
CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_BY_DEFAULT=n)
(3) Enabled by default (CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING=y &&

(7) Enabled by default (CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING=y &&
CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_BY_DEFAULT=y) && CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM=y
Performance overhead:
To evaluate performance we implemented an in-kernel test executing
multiple get_free_page/free_page and kmalloc/kfree calls with allocation
sizes growing from 8 to 240 bytes with CPU frequency set to max and CPU
affinity set to a specific CPU to minimize the noise. Below are results

drm/i915/gt: Simplify shmem_create_from_object map_type selection
The object pin created for shmem_create_from_object is just a single use mapping with the sole purpose of reading the contents of the whole object in bulk.

drm/i915/gt: Add helper for shmem copy to iosys_map
Add a variant of shmem_read() that takes a iosys_map pointer rather than a plain pointer as argument. It's mostly a copy __shmem_rw() but adapting the api and removing the write support since there's currently only need to use iosys_map as destination. Reworking __shmem_rw() to share the implementation was tempting, but finding a good balance between reuse and clarity pushed towards a little code duplication. Since the function is small, just add the similar function with a copy/paste/adapt approach. v2: Add an offset as argument and instead of using a map iterator, use the offset to keep track of where we are writing data to.

drm/i915/gt: Retain default context state across shrinking
As we use a shmemfs file to hold the context state, when not in use it
may be swapped out, such as across suspend. Since we wrote into the
shmemfs without marking the pages as dirty, the contents may be dropped
instead of being written back to swap. On re-using the shmemfs file,
such as creating a new context after resume, the contents of that file
were likely garbage and so the new context could then hang the GPU.
Simply mark the page as being written when copying into the shmemfs
file, and it the new contents will be retained across swapout.

drm/i915: use vmap in shmem_pin_map
shmem_pin_map somewhat awkwardly reimplements vmap using alloc_vm_area and manual pte setup. The only practical difference is that alloc_vm_area prefeaults the vmalloc area PTEs, which doesn't seem to be required here (and could be added to vmap using a flag if actually required). Switch to use vmap, and use vfree to free both the vmalloc mapping and the page array, as well as dropping the references to each page.

drm/i915/gt: Keep a no-frills swappable copy of the default context state
We need to keep the default context state around to instantiate new contexts (aka golden rendercontext), and we also keep it pinned while the engine is active so that we can quickly reset a hanging context. However, the default contexts are large enough to merit keeping in swappable memory as opposed to kernel memory, so we store them inside shmemfs. Currently, we use the normal GEM objects to create the default context image, but we can throw away all but the shmemfs file. This greatly simplifies the tricky power management code which wants to run underneath the normal GT locking, and we definitely do not want to use any high level objects that may appear to recurse back into the GT. Though perhaps the primary advantage of the complex GEM object is that we aggressively cache the mapping, but here we are recreating the vm_area everytime time we unpark. At the worst, we add a lightweight cache, but first find a microbenchmark that is impacted. Having started to create some utility functions to make working with shmemfs objects easier, we can start putting them to wider use, where GEM objects are overkill, such as storing persistent error state.
