      ocfs2: o2hb: add NEGO_TIMEOUT message · 34069b88
      Junxiao Bi authored 
      
This message is sent to master node when non-master nodes's negotiate
timer expired.  Master node records these nodes in a bitmap which is
used to do write timeout timer re-queue decision.

      ocfs2: o2hb: add negotiate timer · e0cbb798
      Junxiao Bi authored 
      
This series of patches is to fix the issue that when storage down, all
nodes will fence self due to write timeout.

With this patch set, all nodes will keep going until storage back
online, except if the following issue happens, then all nodes will do as
before to fence self.

1. io error got
2. network between nodes down
3. nodes panic

This patch (of 6):

When storage down, all nodes will fence self due to write timeout.  The
negotiate timer is designed to avoid this, with it node will wait until
storage up again.

Negotiate timer working in the following way:

1. The timer expires before write timeout timer, its timeout is half
   of write timeout now.  It is re-queued along with write timeout timer.
   If expires, it will send NEGO_TIMEOUT message to master node(node with
   lowest node number).  This message does nothing but marks a bit in a
   bitmap recording which nodes are negotiating timeout on master node.

2. If storage down, nodes will send this message to master node, then
   when master node finds its bitmap including all online nodes, it sends
   NEGO_APPROVL message to all nodes one by one, this message will
   re-queue write timeout timer and negotiate timer.  For any node doesn't
   receive this message or meets some issue when handling this message, it
   will be fenced.  If storage up at any time, o2hb_thread will run and
   re-queue all the timer, nothing will be affected by these two steps.

      Yama: fix double-spinlock and user access in atomic context · dca6b414
      Jann Horn authored 
      Commit 8a56038c ("Yama: consolidate error reporting") causes lockups
when someone hits a Yama denial. Call chain:

process_vm_readv -> process_vm_rw -> process_vm_rw_core -> mm_access
-> ptrace_may_access
task_lock(...) is taken
__ptrace_may_access -> security_ptrace_access_check
-> yama_ptrace_access_check -> report_access -> kstrdup_quotable_cmdline
-> get_cmdline -> access_process_vm -> get_task_mm
task_lock(...) is taken again

task_lock(p) just calls spin_lock(&p->alloc_lock), so at this point,
spin_lock() is called on a lock that is already held by the current
process.

Also: Since the alloc_lock is a spinlock, sleeping inside
security_ptrace_access_check hooks is probably not allowed at all? So it's
not even possible to print the cmdline from in there because that might
involve paging in userspace memory.

It would be tempting to rewrite ptrace_may_access() to drop the alloc_lock
before calling the LSM, but even then, ptrace_may_access() itself might be
called from various contexts in which you're not allowed to sleep; for
example, as far as I understand, to be able to hold a reference to another
task, usually an RCU read lock will be taken (see e.g. kcmp() and
get_robust_list()), so that also prohibits sleeping. (And using e.g. FUSE,
a user can cause pagefault handling to take arbitrary amounts of time -
see https://bugs.chromium.org/p/project-zero/issues/detail?id=808.)

Therefore, AFAIK, in order to print the name of a process below
security_ptrace_access_check(), you'd have to either grab a reference to
the mm_struct and defer the access violation reporting or just use the
"comm" value that's stored in kernelspace and accessible without big
complications. (Or you could try to use some kind of atomic remote VM
access that fails if the memory isn't paged in, similar to
copy_from_user_inatomic(), and if necessary fall back to comm, but
that'd be kind of ugly because the comm/cmdline choice would look
pretty random to the user.)

Fix it by deferring reporting of the access violation until current
exits kernelspace the next time.

v2: Don't oops on PTRACE_TRACEME, call report_access under
task_lock(current). Also fix nonsensical comment. And don't use
GPF_ATOMIC for memory allocation with no locks held.
This patch is tested both for ptrace attach and ptrace traceme.

truncate_pagecache() drops dirty pages, it's dangerous to use it
to invalidate read cache. Besides, we shouldn't start invalidating
read cache while there are buffer writers. Because buffer writers
may add dirty pages later.
