Commit Message

Adhemerval Zanella Netto Sept. 2, 2024, 5:38 p.m. UTC
Linux 6.11 will support calling getrandom() from the vDSO (commit
4ad10a5f5f78a5b3e525a63bd075a4eb1139dde1). It operates on a thread-local
opaque state allocated with mmap using flags specified by the vDSO.

Multiple states are allocated at once, as many as fit into a page, and
these are held in an array of available states to be doled out to each
thread upon first use, and recycled when a thread terminates.  As these
states run low, more are allocated.

To make this procedure async-signal-safe, a simple guard is used in the
LSB of the opaque state address, falling back to the syscall if there's
reentrancy contention.

Also, _Fork() is handled by blocking signals on opaque state allocation
(so _Fork() always see a consistent state even if interrupts a
getrandom() call) and by iterating over the thread stack cache on
reclaim_stack.  Each opaque states will be either in the free states
list (grnd_alloc.states) or allocated to a running thread.

It's currently enabled for x86_64. As the kernel support gains more
platforms (arm64 is in the works), this can be easily turned on for
those.

Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu.

Co-authored-by: Jason A. Donenfeld <Jason@zx2c4.com>

NB: This potentially makes getrandom a non-cancellable entrypoint
    if the vDSO syscall is called for any reason. This is something
    we're going to address later, after this lands.

--

The loongarch support is already on random tree, while aarch64 and
powerpc support is under review.

Changes from v3:
* Query the vgetrandom mmap parameters at loading time, instead
  of each block allocation.

Changes from v2:
* Move the getrandom opaque state buffer to 'struct pthread'.
* Move the state release to start_thread and after signals are
  blocked, to avoid a possible concurrency update.
* Move the state reset on fork() to reclaim_stack.  This makes
  all the logic of handling threads on one place, and simplify
  the __getrandom_fork_subprocess (no need to extra argument).
* Fixed some style issue on comments.
* Do not use mremap to reallocate the free states, it avoids
  a possible fork() issue where the allocator state pointer update
  is interrupted just after the mremap call returns, but before
  the assignment.  This is done by mmap/munmap a a new buffer with
  the new size, a fork() will not invalidate the old buffer.
* Block all signals before taking the lock to avoid the _Fork()
  issue if it interrupts getrandom while the lock is taken.

Thanks for checking this out.  It seems that 'stress-ng' issues getrandom
with a buffer of 8192 size, so I would expect that larger improvements on
smaller buffer where the syscall overhead dominates (like how the kernel
vdso_test_getrandom tests does).

Thanks for checking this out, I have also tested on aarch64 with my
bgetrandom patches (although not yet on random tree).  I think once
the vgetrandom are on Linus tree we can also enable it for loongarch.

The below patch to this patch preserves the cancellability for the one
(extremely rare) situation in which getrandom() will block.
