* Remove upper limit on tunable MALLOC_MMAP_THRESHOLDPatrick McGehearty2021-12-161-10/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current limit on MALLOC_MMAP_THRESHOLD is either 1 Mbyte (for 32-bit apps) or 32 Mbytes (for 64-bit apps). This value was set by a patch dated 2006 (15 years ago). Attempts to set the threshold higher are currently ignored. The default behavior is appropriate for many highly parallel applications where many processes or threads are sharing RAM. In other situations where the number of active processes or threads closely matches the number of cores, a much higher limit may be desired by the application designer. By today's standards on personal computers and small servers, 2 Gbytes of RAM per core is commonly available. On larger systems 4 Gbytes or more of RAM is sometimes available. Instead of raising the limit to match current needs, this patch proposes to remove the limit of the tunable, leaving the decision up to the user of a tunable to judge the best value for their needs. This patch does not change any of the defaults for malloc tunables, retaining the current behavior of the dynamic malloc mmap threshold. bugzilla 27801 - Remove upper limit on tunable MALLOC_MMAP_THRESHOLD Reviewed-by: DJ Delorie <dj@redhat.com> malloc/ malloc.c changed do_set_mmap_threshold to remove test for HEAP_MAX_SIZE.

* malloc: Add Huge Page support for mmapAdhemerval Zanella2021-12-151-4/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With the morecore hook removed, there is not easy way to provide huge pages support on with glibc allocator without resorting to transparent huge pages. And some users and programs do prefer to use the huge pages directly instead of THP for multiple reasons: no splitting, re-merging by the VM, no TLB shootdowns for running processes, fast allocation from the reserve pool, no competition with the rest of the processes unlike THP, no swapping all, etc. This patch extends the 'glibc.malloc.hugetlb' tunable: the value '2' means to use huge pages directly with the system default size, while a positive value means and specific page size that is matched against the supported ones by the system. Currently only memory allocated on sysmalloc() is handled, the arenas still uses the default system page size. To test is a new rule is added tests-malloc-hugetlb2, which run the addes tests with the required GLIBC_TUNABLE setting.

* malloc: Add madvise support for Transparent Huge PagesAdhemerval Zanella2021-12-151-0/+47
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Linux Transparent Huge Pages (THP) current supports three different states: 'never', 'madvise', and 'always'. The 'never' is self-explanatory and 'always' will enable THP for all anonymous pages. However, 'madvise' is still the default for some system and for such case THP will be only used if the memory range is explicity advertise by the program through a madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE) call. To enable it a new tunable is provided, 'glibc.malloc.hugetlb', where setting to a value diffent than 0 enables the madvise call. This patch issues the madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE) call after a successful mmap() call at sysmalloc() with sizes larger than the default huge page size. The madvise() call is disable is system does not support THP or if it has the mode set to "never" and on Linux only support one page size for THP, even if the architecture supports multiple sizes.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | These deprecated functions are only safe to call from __malloc_initialize_hook and as a result, are not useful in the general case. Move the implementations to libc_malloc_debug so that existing binaries that need it will now have to preload the debug DSO to work correctly. This also allows simplification of the core malloc implementation by dropping all the undumping support code that was added to make malloc_set_state work. One known breakage is that of ancient emacs binaries that depend on this. They will now crash when running with this libc. With LD_BIND_NOW=1, it will terminate immediately because of not being able to find malloc_set_state but with lazy binding it will crash in unpredictable ways. It will need a preloaded libc_malloc_debug.so so that its initialization hook is executed to allow its malloc implementation to work properly.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The malloc-check debugging feature is tightly integrated into glibc malloc, so thanks to an idea from Florian Weimer, much of the malloc implementation has been moved into libc_malloc_debug.so to support malloc-check. Due to this, glibc malloc and malloc-check can no longer work together; they use altogether different (but identical) structures for heap management. This should not make a difference though since the malloc check hook is not disabled anywhere. malloc_set_state does, but it does so early enough that it shouldn't cause any problems. The malloc check tunable is now in the debug DSO and has no effect when the DSO is not preloaded. Reviewed-by: Carlos O'Donell <carlos@redhat.com> Tested-by: Carlos O'Donell <carlos@redhat.com>

With this, the hooks now no longer have any effect on the core library. libc_malloc_debug.so is a malloc interposer that needs to be preloaded to get hooks functionality back so that the debugging features that depend on the hooks, i.e. malloc-check, mcheck and mtrace work again. Without the preloaded DSO these debugging features will be nops. These features will be ported away from hooks in subsequent patches. Similarly, legacy applications that need hooks functionality need to preload libc_malloc_debug.so. The symbols exported by libc_malloc_debug.so are maintained at exactly the same version as libc.so. Finally, static binaries will no longer be able to use malloc debugging features since they cannot preload the debugging DSO.

* Harden tcache double-free checkSiddhesh Poyarekar2021-07-081-4/+33
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The tcache allocator layer uses the tcache pointer as a key to identify a block that may be freed twice. Since this is in the application data area, an attacker exploiting a use-after-free could potentially get access to the entire tcache structure through this key. A detailed write-up was provided by Awarau here: https://awaraucom.wordpress.com/2020/07/19/house-of-io-remastered/ Replace this static pointer use for key checking with one that is generated at malloc initialization. The first attempt is through getrandom with a fallback to random_bits(), which is a simple pseudo-random number generator based on the clock. The fallback ought to be sufficient since the goal of the randomness is only to make the key arbitrary enough that it is very unlikely to collide with user data.

* malloc: Use chunk2rawmem throughoutSzabolcs Nagy2021-03-261-25/+33
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The difference between chunk2mem and chunk2rawmem is that the latter does not get the memory tag for the returned pointer. It turns out chunk2rawmem almost always works: The input of chunk2mem is a chunk pointer that is untagged so it can access the chunk header. All memory that is not user allocated heap memory is untagged, which in the current implementation means that it has the 0 tag, but this patch does not rely on the tag value. The patch relies on that chunk operations are either done on untagged chunks or without doing memory access to the user owned part. Internal interface contracts: sysmalloc: Returns untagged memory. _int_malloc: Returns untagged memory. _int_free: Takes untagged memory. _int_memalign: Returns untagged memory. _int_realloc: Takes and returns tagged memory. So only _int_realloc and functions outside this list need care. Alignment checks do not need the right tag and tcache works with untagged memory. tag_at was kept in realloc after an mremap, which is not strictly necessary, since the pointer is only used to retag the memory, but this way the tag is guaranteed to be different from the old tag.

* Support for multiple versions in versioned_symbol, compat_symbolFlorian Weimer2021-03-251-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This essentially folds compat_symbol_unique functionality into compat_symbol. This change eliminates the need for intermediate aliases for defining multiple symbol versions, for both compat_symbol and versioned_symbol. Some binutils versions do not suport multiple versions per symbol on some targets, so aliases are automatically introduced, similar to what compat_symbol_unique did. To reduce symbol table sizes, a configure check is added to avoid these aliases if they are not needed. The new mechanism works with data symbols as well as function symbols, due to the way an assembler-level redirect is used. It is not compatible with weak symbols for old binutils versions, which is why the definition of __malloc_initialize_hook had to be changed. This is not a loss of functionality because weak symbols do not matter to dynamic linking. The placeholder symbol needs repeating in nptl/libpthread-compat.c now that compat_symbol is used, but that seems more obvious than introducing yet another macro. A subtle difference was that compat_symbol_unique made the symbol global automatically. compat_symbol does not do this, so static had to be removed from the definition of __libpthread_version_placeholder.

On Linux, this does not matter because sbrk itself was changed to fail in secondary libcs. _dl_addr occasionally shows up in profiles, but had to be used before because __libc_multiple_libs was unreliable. So this change achieves a slight reduction in startup time. Reviewed-by: Adhemerval Zanella <adhemerval.zanella@linaro.org>
* malloc: Detect infinite-loop in _int_free when freeing tcache [BZ#27052]W. Hashimoto2020-12-111-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | If linked-list of tcache contains a loop, it invokes infinite loop in _int_free when freeing tcache. The PoC which invokes such infinite loop is on the Bugzilla(#27052). This loop should terminate when the loop exceeds mp_.tcache_count and the program should abort. The affected glibc version is 2.29 or later. Reviewed-by: DJ Delorie <dj@redhat.com>
