We have custom stack expansion checks that it turns out are extremely
badly tested and contain bugs, surprise. So add some tests that
exercise the code and capture the current boundary conditions.
The signal test currently fails on 64-bit kernels because the 2048
byte allowance for the signal frame is too small, we will fix that in
a subsequent patch.

v2:
- Concentrate on used stack around the 1MB size, as that's where our
custom logic kicks in.
- Increment the used stack size by 64 so we can exercise the case
where we overflow the page by less than 128 (__SIGNAL_FRAMESIZE).

2.25.1
We have powerpc specific logic in our page fault handling to decide if
an access to an unmapped address below the stack pointer should expand
the stack VMA.
The code was originally added in 2004 "ported from 2.4". The rough
logic is that the stack is allowed to grow to 1MB with no extra
checking. Over 1MB the access must be within 2048 bytes of the stack
pointer, or be from a user instruction that updates the stack pointer.
The 2048 byte allowance below the stack pointer is there to cover the
288 byte "red zone" as well as the "about 1.5kB" needed by the signal
delivery code.
Unfortunately since then the signal frame has expanded, and is now
4224 bytes on 64-bit kernels with transactional memory enabled. This
means if a process has consumed more than 1MB of stack, and its stack
pointer lies less than 4224 bytes from the next page boundary, signal
delivery will fault when trying to expand the stack and the process
will see a SEGV.
The total size of the signal frame is the size of struct rt_sigframe
(which includes the red zone) plus __SIGNAL_FRAMESIZE (128 bytes on
64-bit).
The 2048 byte allowance was correct until 2008 as the signal frame
was:
struct rt_sigframe {
struct ucontext uc; /* 0 1440 */
/* --- cacheline 11 boundary (1408 bytes) was 32 bytes ago --- */
long unsigned int _unused[2]; /* 1440 16 */
unsigned int tramp[6]; /* 1456 24 */
struct siginfo * pinfo; /* 1480 8 */
void * puc; /* 1488 8 */
struct siginfo info; /* 1496 128 */
/* --- cacheline 12 boundary (1536 bytes) was 88 bytes ago --- */
char abigap[288]; /* 1624 288 */
/* size: 1920, cachelines: 15, members: 7 */
/* padding: 8 */
};
1920 + 128 = 2048
Then in commit ce48b2100785 ("powerpc: Add VSX context save/restore,
ptrace and signal support") (Jul 2008) the signal frame expanded to
2304 bytes:
struct rt_sigframe {
struct ucontext uc; /* 0 1696 */ <--
/* --- cacheline 13 boundary (1664 bytes) was 32 bytes ago --- */
long unsigned int _unused[2]; /* 1696 16 */
unsigned int tramp[6]; /* 1712 24 */
struct siginfo * pinfo; /* 1736 8 */
void * puc; /* 1744 8 */
struct siginfo info; /* 1752 128 */
/* --- cacheline 14 boundary (1792 bytes) was 88 bytes ago --- */
char abigap[288]; /* 1880 288 */
/* size: 2176, cachelines: 17, members: 7 */
/* padding: 8 */
};
2176 + 128 = 2304
At this point we should have been exposed to the bug, though as far as
I know it was never reported. I no longer have a system old enough to
easily test on.
Then in 2010 commit 320b2b8de126 ("mm: keep a guard page below a
grow-down stack segment") caused our stack expansion code to never
trigger, as there was always a VMA found for a write up to PAGE_SIZE
below r1.
That meant the bug was hidden as we continued to expand the signal
frame in commit 2b0a576d15e0 ("powerpc: Add new transactional memory
state to the signal context") (Feb 2013):
struct rt_sigframe {
struct ucontext uc; /* 0 1696 */
/* --- cacheline 13 boundary (1664 bytes) was 32 bytes ago --- */
struct ucontext uc_transact; /* 1696 1696 */ <--
/* --- cacheline 26 boundary (3328 bytes) was 64 bytes ago --- */
long unsigned int _unused[2]; /* 3392 16 */
unsigned int tramp[6]; /* 3408 24 */
struct siginfo * pinfo; /* 3432 8 */
void * puc; /* 3440 8 */
struct siginfo info; /* 3448 128 */
/* --- cacheline 27 boundary (3456 bytes) was 120 bytes ago --- */
char abigap[288]; /* 3576 288 */
/* size: 3872, cachelines: 31, members: 8 */
/* padding: 8 */
/* last cacheline: 32 bytes */
};
3872 + 128 = 4000
And commit 573ebfa6601f ("powerpc: Increase stack redzone for 64-bit
userspace to 512 bytes") (Feb 2014):
struct rt_sigframe {
struct ucontext uc; /* 0 1696 */
/* --- cacheline 13 boundary (1664 bytes) was 32 bytes ago --- */
struct ucontext uc_transact; /* 1696 1696 */
/* --- cacheline 26 boundary (3328 bytes) was 64 bytes ago --- */
long unsigned int _unused[2]; /* 3392 16 */
unsigned int tramp[6]; /* 3408 24 */
struct siginfo * pinfo; /* 3432 8 */
void * puc; /* 3440 8 */
struct siginfo info; /* 3448 128 */
/* --- cacheline 27 boundary (3456 bytes) was 120 bytes ago --- */
char abigap[512]; /* 3576 512 */ <--
/* size: 4096, cachelines: 32, members: 8 */
/* padding: 8 */
};
4096 + 128 = 4224
Then finally in 2017, commit 1be7107fbe18 ("mm: larger stack guard
gap, between vmas") exposed us to the existing bug, because it changed
the stack VMA to be the correct/real size, meaning our stack expansion
code is now triggered.
Fix it by increasing the allowance to 4224 bytes.
Hard-coding 4224 is obviously unsafe against future expansions of the
signal frame in the same way as the existing code. We can't easily use
sizeof() because the signal frame structure is not in a header. We
will either fix that, or rip out all the custom stack expansion
checking logic entirely.

2.25.1
We have powerpc specific logic in our page fault handling to decide if
an access to an unmapped address below the stack pointer should expand
the stack VMA.
The logic aims to prevent userspace from doing bad accesses below the
stack pointer. However as long as the stack is < 1MB in size, we allow
all accesses without further checks. Adding some debug I see that I
can do a full kernel build and LTP run, and not a single process has
used more than 1MB of stack. So for the majority of processes the
logic never even fires.
We also recently found a nasty bug in this code which could cause
userspace programs to be killed during signal delivery. It went
unnoticed presumably because most processes use < 1MB of stack.
The generic mm code has also grown support for stack guard pages since
this code was originally written, so the most heinous case of the
stack expanding into other mappings is now handled for us.
Finally although some other arches have special logic in this path,
from what I can tell none of x86, arm64, arm and s390 impose any extra
checks other than those in expand_stack().
So drop our complicated logic and like other architectures just let
the stack expand as long as its within the rlimit.

Are there really users of transactional memory in the wild?
Just asking because Power10 removes TM, and Power9 has had some issues
with it AFAICT.
Getting rid of it (if possible) would result in smaller signal frames,
with simpler signal delivery code (probably slightly faster also).

Hi Michael,
I have tested this with the test from the bug and it now seems to pass
fine. On that basis:

Not many that I've heard of, but some.
Though anything that does use it needs to be written to fallback to
regular locking if TM is not available anyway.

It varies on different Power9 chip levels. For guests it should work.

All the kernel code should be behind CONFIG_PPC_TRANSACTIONAL_MEM.
Deciding to disable that is really a distro decision.
In upstream we tend not to drop support for existing hardware while
people are still using it. But we could make a special case for TM,
because it's quite intrusive. I think we'd wait for a major distro to
ship without TM enabled before we did that though.

Hi Michael,
I tested v1 of this. I ran the test from the bug with a range of stack
sizes, in a loop, for several hours and didn't see any crashes/signal
delivery failures.
I retested v2 for a few minutes just to be sure, and I ran stress-ng's
stack, stackmmap and bad-altstack stressors to make sure no obvious
kernel bugs were exposed. Nothing crashed.
All tests done on a P8 LE guest under KVM.
On that basis:
Tested-by: Daniel Axtens <[email protected]>
The more I look at this the less qualified I feel to Review it, but
certainly it looks better than my ugly hack from late last year.
Kind regards,
