Merge tag 'slab-for-6.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vbabka/slab
Pull slab updates from Vlastimil Babka:
"This time it's mostly refactoring and improving APIs for slab users in
the kernel, along with some debugging improvements.
- kmem_cache_create() refactoring (Christian Brauner)
Over the years have been growing new parameters to
kmem_cache_create() where most of them are needed only for a small
number of caches - most recently the rcu_freeptr_offset parameter.
To avoid adding new parameters to kmem_cache_create() and adjusting
all its callers, or creating new wrappers such as
kmem_cache_create_rcu(), we can now pass extra parameters using the
new struct kmem_cache_args. Not explicitly initialized fields
default to values interpreted as unused.
kmem_cache_create() is for now a wrapper that works both with the
new form: kmem_cache_create(name, object_size, args, flags) and the
legacy form: kmem_cache_create(name, object_size, align, flags,
ctor)
- kmem_cache_destroy() waits for kfree_rcu()'s in flight (Vlastimil
Babka, Uladislau Rezki)
Since SLOB removal, kfree() is allowed for freeing objects
allocated by kmem_cache_create(). By extension kfree_rcu() as
allowed as well, which can allow converting simple call_rcu()
callbacks that only do kmem_cache_free(), as there was never a
kmem_cache_free_rcu() variant. However, for caches that can be
destroyed e.g. on module removal, the cache owners knew to issue
rcu_barrier() first to wait for the pending call_rcu()'s, and this
is not sufficient for pending kfree_rcu()'s due to its internal
batching optimizations. Ulad has provided a new
kvfree_rcu_barrier() and to make the usage less error-prone,
kmem_cache_destroy() calls it. Additionally, destroying
SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU caches now again issues rcu_barrier()
synchronously instead of using an async work, because the past
motivation for async work no longer applies. Users of custom
call_rcu() callbacks should however keep calling rcu_barrier()
before cache destruction.
- Debugging use-after-free in SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU caches (Jann Horn)
Currently, KASAN cannot catch UAFs in such caches as it is legal to
access them within a grace period, and we only track the grace
period when trying to free the underlying slab page. The new
CONFIG_SLUB_RCU_DEBUG option changes the freeing of individual
object to be RCU-delayed, after which KASAN can poison them.
- Delayed memcg charging (Shakeel Butt)
In some cases, the memcg is uknown at allocation time, such as
receiving network packets in softirq context. With
kmem_cache_charge() these may be now charged later when the user
and its memcg is known.
- Misc fixes and improvements (Pedro Falcato, Axel Rasmussen,
Christoph Lameter, Yan Zhen, Peng Fan, Xavier)"
