git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner: "This contains the usual selections of misc updates for this cycle. Features: - Add "initramfs_options" parameter to set initramfs mount options. This allows to add specific mount options to the rootfs to e.g., limit the memory size - Add RWF_NOSIGNAL flag for pwritev2() Add RWF_NOSIGNAL flag for pwritev2. This flag prevents the SIGPIPE signal from being raised when writing on disconnected pipes or sockets. The flag is handled directly by the pipe filesystem and converted to the existing MSG_NOSIGNAL flag for sockets - Allow to pass pid namespace as procfs mount option Ever since the introduction of pid namespaces, procfs has had very implicit behaviour surrounding them (the pidns used by a procfs mount is auto-selected based on the mounting process's active pidns, and the pidns itself is basically hidden once the mount has been constructed) This implicit behaviour has historically meant that userspace was required to do some special dances in order to configure the pidns of a procfs mount as desired. Examples include: * In order to bypass the mnt_too_revealing() check, Kubernetes creates a procfs mount from an empty pidns so that user namespaced containers can be nested (without this, the nested containers would fail to mount procfs) But this requires forking off a helper process because you cannot just one-shot this using mount(2) * Container runtimes in general need to fork into a container before configuring its mounts, which can lead to security issues in the case of shared-pidns containers (a privileged process in the pidns can interact with your container runtime process) While SUID_DUMP_DISABLE and user namespaces make this less of an issue, the strict need for this due to a minor uAPI wart is kind of unfortunate Things would be much easier if there was a way for userspace to just specify the pidns they want. So this pull request contains changes to implement a new "pidns" argument which can be set using fsconfig(2): fsconfig(procfd, FSCONFIG_SET_FD, "pidns", NULL, nsfd); fsconfig(procfd, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "pidns", "/proc/self/ns/pid", 0); or classic mount(2) / mount(8): // mount -t proc -o pidns=/proc/self/ns/pid proc /tmp/proc mount("proc", "/tmp/proc", "proc", MS_..., "pidns=/proc/self/ns/pid"); Cleanups: - Remove the last references to EXPORT_OP_ASYNC_LOCK - Make file_remove_privs_flags() static - Remove redundant __GFP_NOWARN when GFP_NOWAIT is used - Use try_cmpxchg() in start_dir_add() - Use try_cmpxchg() in sb_init_done_wq() - Replace offsetof() with struct_size() in ioctl_file_dedupe_range() - Remove vfs_ioctl() export - Replace rwlock() with spinlock in epoll code as rwlock causes priority inversion on preempt rt kernels - Make ns_entries in fs/proc/namespaces const - Use a switch() statement() in init_special_inode() just like we do in may_open() - Use struct_size() in dir_add() in the initramfs code - Use str_plural() in rd_load_image() - Replace strcpy() with strscpy() in find_link() - Rename generic_delete_inode() to inode_just_drop() and generic_drop_inode() to inode_generic_drop() - Remove unused arguments from fcntl_{g,s}et_rw_hint() Fixes: - Document @name parameter for name_contains_dotdot() helper - Fix spelling mistake - Always return zero from replace_fd() instead of the file descriptor number - Limit the size for copy_file_range() in compat mode to prevent a signed overflow - Fix debugfs mount options not being applied - Verify the inode mode when loading it from disk in minixfs - Verify the inode mode when loading it from disk in cramfs - Don't trigger automounts with RESOLVE_NO_XDEV If openat2() was called with RESOLVE_NO_XDEV it didn't traverse through automounts, but could still trigger them - Add FL_RECLAIM flag to show_fl_flags() macro so it appears in tracepoints - Fix unused variable warning in rd_load_image() on s390 - Make INITRAMFS_PRESERVE_MTIME depend on BLK_DEV_INITRD - Use ns_capable_noaudit() when determining net sysctl permissions - Don't call path_put() under namespace semaphore in listmount() and statmount()" * tag 'vfs-6.18-rc1.misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: (38 commits) fcntl: trim arguments listmount: don't call path_put() under namespace semaphore statmount: don't call path_put() under namespace semaphore pid: use ns_capable_noaudit() when determining net sysctl permissions fs: rename generic_delete_inode() and generic_drop_inode() init: INITRAMFS_PRESERVE_MTIME should depend on BLK_DEV_INITRD initramfs: Replace strcpy() with strscpy() in find_link() initrd: Use str_plural() in rd_load_image() initramfs: Use struct_size() helper to improve dir_add() initrd: Fix unused variable warning in rd_load_image() on s390 fs: use the switch statement in init_special_inode() fs/proc/namespaces: make ns_entries const filelock: add FL_RECLAIM to show_fl_flags() macro eventpoll: Replace rwlock with spinlock selftests/proc: add tests for new pidns APIs procfs: add "pidns" mount option pidns: move is-ancestor logic to helper openat2: don't trigger automounts with RESOLVE_NO_XDEV namei: move cross-device check to __traverse_mounts namei: remove LOOKUP_NO_XDEV check from handle_mounts ...

2025-09-13selftests/proc: test PROCMAP_QUERY ioctl while vma is concurrently modifiedSuren Baghdasaryan1-0/+65
Patch series " execute PROCMAP_QUERY ioctl under per-vma lock", v4. With /proc/pid/maps now being read under per-vma lock protection we can reuse parts of that code to execute PROCMAP_QUERY ioctl also without taking mmap_lock. The change is designed to reduce mmap_lock contention and prevent PROCMAP_QUERY ioctl calls from blocking address space updates. This patchset was split out of the original patchset [1] that introduced per-vma lock usage for /proc/pid/maps reading. It contains PROCMAP_QUERY tests, code refactoring patch to simplify the main change and the actual transition to per-vma lock. This patch (of 3): Extend /proc/pid/maps tearing tests to verify PROCMAP_QUERY ioctl operation correctness while the vma is being concurrently modified.

2025-07-24selftests/proc: add /proc/pid/maps tearing from vma split testSuren Baghdasaryan3-0/+449
Patch series "use per-vma locks for /proc/pid/maps reads", v8. Reading /proc/pid/maps requires read-locking mmap_lock which prevents any other task from concurrently modifying the address space. This guarantees coherent reporting of virtual address ranges, however it can block important updates from happening. Oftentimes /proc/pid/maps readers are low priority monitoring tasks and them blocking high priority tasks results in priority inversion. Locking the entire address space is required to present fully coherent picture of the address space, however even current implementation does not strictly guarantee that by outputting vmas in page-size chunks and dropping mmap_lock in between each chunk. Address space modifications are possible while mmap_lock is dropped and userspace reading the content is expected to deal with possible concurrent address space modifications. Considering these relaxed rules, holding mmap_lock is not strictly needed as long as we can guarantee that a concurrently modified vma is reported either in its original form or after it was modified. This patchset switches from holding mmap_lock while reading /proc/pid/maps to taking per-vma locks as we walk the vma tree. This reduces the contention with tasks modifying the address space because they would have to contend for the same vma as opposed to the entire address space. Previous version of this patchset [1] tried to perform /proc/pid/maps reading under RCU, however its implementation is quite complex and the results are worse than the new version because it still relied on mmap_lock speculation which retries if any part of the address space gets modified. New implementaion is both simpler and results in less contention. Note that similar approach would not work for /proc/pid/smaps reading as it also walks the page table and that's not RCU-safe. Paul McKenney's designed a test [2] to measure mmap/munmap latencies while concurrently reading /proc/pid/maps. The test has a pair of processes scanning /proc/PID/maps, and another process unmapping and remapping 4K pages from a 128MB range of anonymous memory. At the end of each 10 second run, the latency of each mmap() or munmap() operation is measured, and for each run the maximum and mean latency is printed. The map/unmap process is started first, its PID is passed to the scanners, and then the map/unmap process waits until both scanners are running before starting its timed test. The scanners keep scanning until the specified /proc/PID/maps file disappears. The latest results from Paul: Stock mm-unstable, all of the runs had maximum latencies in excess of 0.5 milliseconds, and with 80% of the runs' latencies exceeding a full millisecond, and ranging up beyond 4 full milliseconds. In contrast, 99% of the runs with this patch series applied had maximum latencies of less than 0.5 milliseconds, with the single outlier at only 0.608 milliseconds. From a median-performance (as opposed to maximum-latency) viewpoint, this patch series also looks good, with stock mm weighing in at 11 microseconds and patch series at 6 microseconds, better than a 2x improvement.

They are designed to detect any unexpected data tearing while performing some common address space modifications (vma split, resize and remap). Even before these changes, reading /proc/pid/maps might have inconsistent data because the file is read page-by-page with mmap_lock being dropped between the pages. An example of user-visible inconsistency can be that the same vma is printed twice: once before it was modified and then after the modifications. For example if vma was extended, it might be found and reported twice. What is not expected is to see a gap where there should have been a vma both before and after modification. This patchset increases the chances of such tearing, therefore it's even more important now to test for unexpected inconsistencies. In [3] Lorenzo identified the following possible vma merging/splitting scenarios: Merges with changes to existing vmas: 1 Merge both - mapping a vma over another one and between two vmas which can be merged after this replacement; 2. Merge left full - mapping a vma at the end of an existing one and completely over its right neighbor; 3. Merge left partial - mapping a vma at the end of an existing one and partially over its right neighbor; 4. Merge right full - mapping a vma before the start of an existing one and completely over its left neighbor; 5. Merge right partial - mapping a vma before the start of an existing one and partially over its left neighbor; Merges without changes to existing vmas: 6. Merge both - mapping a vma into a gap between two vmas which can be merged after the insertion; 7. Merge left - mapping a vma at the end of an existing one; 8. Merge right - mapping a vma before the start end of an existing one; Splits 9. Split with new vma at the lower address; 10. Split with new vma at the higher address; If such merges or splits happen concurrently with the /proc/maps reading we might report a vma twice, once before the modification and once after it is modified: Case 1 might report overwritten and previous vma along with the final merged vma; Case 2 might report previous and the final merged vma; Case 3 might cause us to retry once we detect the temporary gap caused by shrinking of the right neighbor; Case 4 might report overritten and the final merged vma; Case 5 might cause us to retry once we detect the temporary gap caused by shrinking of the left neighbor; Case 6 might report previous vma and the gap along with the final marged vma; Case 7 might report previous and the final merged vma; Case 8 might report the original gap and the final merged vma covering the gap; Case 9 might cause us to retry once we detect the temporary gap caused by shrinking of the original vma at the vma start; Case 10 might cause us to retry once we detect the temporary gap caused by shrinking of the original vma at the vma end; In all these cases the retry mechanism prevents us from reporting possible temporary gaps. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250418174959.1431962-1-surenb@google.com/ [2] https://github.com/paulmckrcu/proc-mmap_sem-test [3] https://lore.kernel.org/all/e1863f40-39ab-4e5b-984a-c48765ffde1c@lucifer.local/ The /proc/pid/maps file is generated page by page, with the mmap_lock released between pages. This can lead to inconsistent reads if the underlying vmas are concurrently modified. For instance, if a vma split or merge occurs at a page boundary while /proc/pid/maps is being read, the same vma might be seen twice: once before and once after the change. This duplication is considered acceptable for userspace handling. However, observing a "hole" where a vma should be (e.g., due to a vma being replaced and the space temporarily being empty) is unacceptable. Implement a test that: 1. Forks a child process which continuously modifies its address space, specifically targeting a vma at the boundary between two pages. 2. The parent process repeatedly reads the child's /proc/pid/maps. 3. The parent process checks the last vma of the first page and the first vma of the second page for consistency, looking for the effects of vma splits or merges. The test duration is configurable via DURATION environment variable expressed in seconds. The default test duration is 5 seconds.

Centralize the _GNU_SOURCE definition to CFLAGS in lib.mk. Remove redundant defines from Makefiles that import lib.mk. Convert any usage of "#define _GNU_SOURCE 1" to "#define _GNU_SOURCE". This uses the form "-D_GNU_SOURCE=", which is equivalent to "#define _GNU_SOURCE". Otherwise using "-D_GNU_SOURCE" is equivalent to "-D_GNU_SOURCE=1" and "#define _GNU_SOURCE 1", which is less commonly seen in source code and would require many changes in selftests to avoid redefinition warnings.
