The current value of the early boot static pool size, 1024 is not big enough for systems with large number of CPUs with timer or/and workqueue objects selected. As the results, systems have 60+ CPUs with both timer and workqueue objects enabled could trigger "ODEBUG: Out of memory. ODEBUG disabled". Some debug objects are allocated during the early boot. Enabling some options like timers or workqueue objects may increase the size required significantly with large number of CPUs. For example, CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS_TIMERS: No. CPUs x 2 (worker pool) objects: start_kernel workqueue_init_early init_worker_pool init_timer_key debug_object_init plus No. CPUs objects (CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS): sched_init hrtick_rq_init hrtimer_init CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS_WORK: No. CPUs objects: vmalloc_init __init_work plus No. CPUs x 6 (workqueue) objects: workqueue_init_early alloc_workqueue __alloc_workqueue_key alloc_and_link_pwqs init_pwq Also, plus No. CPUs objects: perf_event_init __init_srcu_struct init_srcu_struct_fields init_srcu_struct_nodes __init_work However, none of the things are actually used or required before debug_objects_mem_init() is invoked, so just move the call right before vmalloc_init(). According to tglx, "the reason why the call is at this place in start_kernel() is historical. It's because back in the days when debugobjects were added the memory allocator was enabled way later than today."

While debugging an issue debugobject tracking warned about an annotation issue of an object on stack. It turned out that the issue was due to the object in concern being on a different stack which was due to another issue. Thomas suggested to print the pointers and the location of the stack for the currently running task. This helped to figure out that the object was on the wrong stack. As this is general useful information for debugging similar issues, make the error message more informative by printing the pointers. [ tglx: Massaged changelog ] Signed-off-by:

The newly added global free list allows to avoid lengthy pool_list iterations in free_obj_work() by putting objects either into the pool list when the fill level of the pool is below the maximum or by putting them on the global free list immediately. As the pool is now guaranteed to never exceed the maximum fill level this allows to remove the batch removal from pool list in free_obj_work(). Split free_object() into two parts, so the actual queueing function can be reused without invoking schedule_work() on every invocation.

free_object() adds objects to the pool list and schedules work when the pool list is larger than the pool size. The worker handles the actual kfree() of the object by iterating the pool list until the pool size is below the maximum pool size again. To iterate the pool list, pool_lock has to be held and the objects which should be freed() need to be put into temporary storage so pool_lock can be dropped for the actual kmem_cache_free() invocation. That's a pointless and expensive exercise if there is a large number of objects to free. In such a case its better to evaulate the fill level of the pool in free_objects() and queue the object to free either in the pool list or if it's full on a separate global free list. The worker can then do the following simpler operation: - Move objects back from the global free list to the pool list if the pool list is not longer full. - Remove the remaining objects in a single list move operation from the global free list and do the kmem_cache_free() operation lockless from the temporary list head. In fill_pool() the global free list is checked as well to avoid real allocations from the kmem cache. Add the necessary list head and a counter for the number of objects on the global free list and export that counter via sysfs: max_chain :79 max_loops :8147 warnings :0 fixups :0 pool_free :1697 pool_min_free :346 pool_used :15356 pool_max_used :23933 on_free_list :39 objs_allocated:32617 objs_freed :16588 Nothing queues objects on the global free list yet. This happens in a follow up change. [ tglx: Simplified implementation and massaged changelog ] Suggested-by: -

__debug_check_no_obj_freed() can be an expensive operation depending on the size of memory freed. It already exports the maximum chain walk length via debugfs, but this only records the maximum of a single memory chunk. Though there is no information about the total number of objects inspected for a __debug_check_no_obj_freed() operation, which might be significantly larger when a huge memory region is freed. Aggregate the number of objects inspected for a single invocation of __debug_check_no_obj_freed() and export it via sysfs. The resulting output of /sys/kernel/debug/debug_objects/stats looks like: max_chain :121 max_checked :543267 warnings :0 fixups :0 pool_free :1764 pool_min_free :341 pool_used :86438 pool_max_used :268887 objs_allocated:6068254 objs_freed :5981076 [ tglx: Renamed the variable to max_checked and adjusted changelog ] Signed-off-by:

The allocated debug objects are either on the free list or in the hashed bucket lists. So they won't get lost. However if both debug objects and kmemleak are enabled and kmemleak scanning is done while some of the debug objects are transitioning from one list to the others, false negative reporting of memory leaks may happen for those objects. For example, [38687.275678] kmemleak: 12 new suspected memory leaks (see /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak) unreferenced object 0xffff92e98aabeb68 (size 40): comm "ksmtuned", pid 4344, jiffies 4298403600 (age 906.430s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 d0 bc db 92 e9 92 ff ff ................ 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 38 36 8a 61 e9 92 ff ff ........86.a.... backtrace: [<ffffffff8fa5378a>] kmemleak_alloc+0x4a/0xa0 [<ffffffff8f47c019>] kmem_cache_alloc+0xe9/0x320 [<ffffffff8f62ed96>] __debug_object_init+0x3e6/0x400 [<ffffffff8f62ef01>] debug_object_activate+0x131/0x210 [<ffffffff8f330d9f>] __call_rcu+0x3f/0x400 [<ffffffff8f33117d>] call_rcu_sched+0x1d/0x20 [<ffffffff8f4a183c>] put_object+0x2c/0x40 [<ffffffff8f4a188c>] __delete_object+0x3c/0x50 [<ffffffff8f4a18bd>] delete_object_full+0x1d/0x20 [<ffffffff8fa535c2>] kmemleak_free+0x32/0x80 [<ffffffff8f47af07>] kmem_cache_free+0x77/0x350 [<ffffffff8f453912>] unlink_anon_vmas+0x82/0x1e0 [<ffffffff8f440341>] free_pgtables+0xa1/0x110 [<ffffffff8f44af91>] exit_mmap+0xc1/0x170 [<ffffffff8f29db60>] mmput+0x80/0x150 [<ffffffff8f2a7609>] do_exit+0x2a9/0xd20 The references in the debug objects may also hide a real memory leak.

On a large SMP system with many CPUs, the global pool_lock may become a performance bottleneck as all the CPUs that need to allocate or free debug objects have to take the lock.

On a large SMP systems with hundreds of CPUs, the current thresholds for allocating and freeing debug objects (256 and 1024 respectively) may not work well. This can cause a lot of needless calls to kmem_aloc() and kmem_free() on those systems. To alleviate this thrashing problem, the object freeing threshold is now increased to "1024 + # of CPUs * 32". Whereas the object allocation threshold is increased to "256 + # of CPUs * 4". That should make the debug objects subsystem scale better with the number of CPUs available in the system.

Drivers, or other modules, that use a mixture of objects (especially objects embedded within other objects) would like to take advantage of the debugobjects facilities to help catch misuse. Currently, the debugobjects interface is only available to builtin drivers and requires a set of EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL for use by modules. I am using the debugobjects in i915.ko to try and catch some invalid operations on embedded objects. The problem currently only presents itself across module unload so forcing i915 to be builtin is not an option.

When activating a static object we need make sure that the object is tracked in the object tracker. If it is a non-static object then the activation is illegal. In previous implementation, each subsystem need take care of this in their fixup callbacks. Actually we can put it into debugobjects core. Thus we can save duplicated code, and have *pure* fixup callbacks. To achieve this, a new callback "is_static_object" is introduced to let the type specific code decide whether a object is static or not. If yes, we take it into object tracker, otherwise give warning and invoke fixup callback. This change has paassed debugobjects selftest, and I also do some test with all debugobjects supports enabled. At last, I have a concern about the fixups that can it change the object which is in incorrect state on fixup? Because the 'addr' may not point to any valid object if a non-static object is not tracked. Then Change such object can overwrite someone's memory and cause unexpected behaviour. For example, the timer_fixup_activate bind timer to function stub_timer.

I am going to introduce debugobjects infrastructure to USB subsystem. But before this, I found the code of debugobjects could be improved. This patchset will make fixup functions return bool type instead of int. Because fixup only need report success or no. boolean is the 'real' type. This patch (of 7): The object debugging infrastructure core provides some fixup callbacks for the subsystem who use it. These callbacks are called from the debug code whenever a problem in debug_object_init is detected. And debugobjects core suppose them returns 1 when the fixup was successful, otherwise 0. So the return type is boolean. A bad thing is that debug_object_fixup use the return value for arithmetic operation. It confused me that what is the reall return type. Reading over the whole code, I found some place do use the return value incorrectly(see next patch). So why use bool type instead? Signed-off-by:

I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member) The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter: hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member) Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate. Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required: - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones. - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this was modified to use 'obj->member' instead. - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.

There was a return missed in 1fda107d "debugobjects: Remove unused return value from fill_pool()". It makes gcc complain: lib/debugobjects.c: In function ‘fill_pool’: lib/debugobjects.c:98:4: warning: ‘return’ with a value, in function returning void [enabled by default] Signed-off-by:

debugobjects is now printing a warning when a fixup for a NOTAVAILABLE object is run. This causes the selftest to fail like: ODEBUG: selftest warnings failed 4 != 5 We could just increase the number of warnings that the selftest is expecting to see because that is actually what has changed. But, it turns out that fixup_activate() was written with inverted logic and thus a fixup for a static object returned 1 indicating the object had been fixed, and 0 otherwise. Fix the logic to be correct and update the counts to reflect that nothing needed fixing for a static object. Signed-off-by:

Calling del_timer_sync() on an uninitialized timer leads to a never ending loop in lock_timer_base() that spins checking for a non-NULL timer base. Add an assertion to debugobjects to catch usage of uninitialized objects so that we can initialize timers in the del_timer_sync() path before it calls lock_timer_base().

Make debugobjects use the return code from the fixup function. That allows us better diagnostics in the activate check than relying on a WARN_ON() in the object specific code. [ tglx@linutronix.de: Split out the debugobjects vs. the timer change ] Signed-off-by:

Order of initialization look like this: ... debugobjects kmemleak ...(lots of other subsystems)... workqueues (through early initcall) ... debugobjects use schedule_work for batch freeing of its data and kmemleak heavily use debugobjects, so when it comes to freeing and workqueues were not initialized yet, kernel crashes: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null) IP: [<ffffffff810854d1>] __queue_work+0x29/0x41a [<ffffffff81085910>] queue_work_on+0x16/0x1d [<ffffffff81085abc>] queue_work+0x29/0x55 [<ffffffff81085afb>] schedule_work+0x13/0x15 [<ffffffff81242de1>] free_object+0x90/0x95 [<ffffffff81242f6d>] debug_check_no_obj_freed+0x187/0x1d3 [<ffffffff814b6504>] ? _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore+0x30/0x4d [<ffffffff8110bd14>] ? free_object_rcu+0x68/0x6d [<ffffffff8110890c>] kmem_cache_free+0x64/0x12c [<ffffffff8110bd14>] free_object_rcu+0x68/0x6d [<ffffffff810b58bc>] __rcu_process_callbacks+0x1b6/0x2d9 ... because system_wq is NULL.

In complex subsystems like mac80211 structures can contain several timers and work structs, so identifying a specific instance from the call trace and object type output of debugobjects can be hard. Allow the subsystems which support debugobjects to provide a hint function. This function returns a pointer to a kernel address (preferrably the objects callback function) which is printed along with the debugobjects type. Add hint methods for timer_list, work_struct and hrtimer. [ tglx: Massaged changelog, made it compile ] Signed-off-by:

Implement a basic state machine checker in the debugobjects. This state machine checker detects races and inconsistencies within the "active" life of a debugobject. The checker only keeps track of the current state; all the state machine logic is kept at the object instance level. The checker works by adding a supplementary "unsigned int astate" field to the debug_obj structure. It keeps track of the current "active state" of the object. The only constraints that are imposed on the states by the debugobjects system is that: - activation of an object sets the current active state to 0, - deactivation of an object expects the current active state to be 0. For the rest of the states, the state mapping is determined by the specific object instance. Therefore, the logic keeping track of the state machine is within the specialized instance, without any need to know about it at the debugobject level. The current object active state is changed by calling: debug_object_active_state(addr, descr, expect, next) where "expect" is the expected state and "next" is the next state to move to if the expected state is found. A warning is generated if the expected is not found. Signed-off-by:

include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch. Signed-off-by:

This patch marks two functions, which only get called at initialization, as __init. Here is also interesting, that modpost doesn't catch here the right function name. WARNING: lib/built-in.o(.text+0x585f): Section mismatch in reference from the function T.506() to the variable .init.data:obj The function T.506() references the variable __initdata obj. This is often because T.506 lacks a __initdata annotation or the annotation of obj is wrong. Signed-off-by:
