mm/oom_kill.c: prevent a race between process_mrelease and exit_mmap

Race between process_mrelease and exit_mmap, where free_pgtables is
called while __oom_reap_task_mm is in progress, leads to kernel crash
during pte_offset_map_lock call. oom-reaper avoids this race by setting
MMF_OOM_VICTIM flag and causing exit_mmap to take and release
mmap_write_lock, blocking it until oom-reaper releases mmap_read_lock.

Reusing MMF_OOM_VICTIM for process_mrelease would be the simplest way to
fix this race, however that would be considered a hack. Fix this race
by elevating mm->mm_users and preventing exit_mmap from executing until
process_mrelease is finished. Patch slightly refactors the code to
adapt for a possible mmget_not_zero failure.

This fix has considerable negative impact on process_mrelease
performance and will likely need later optimization.

per signal_struct coredumps

Current coredumps are mixed up with the exit code, the signal handling
code and with the ptrace code in was they are much more complicated than
necessary and difficult to follow.

This series of changes starts with ptrace_stop and cleans it up,
making it easier to follow what is happening in ptrace_stop.
Then cleans up the exec interactions with coredumps.
Then cleans up the coredump interactions with exit.
Then the coredump interactions with the signal handling code is clean
up.

The first and last changes are bug fixes for minor bugs.

I believe the fact that vfork followed by execve can kill the process
the called vfork if exec fails is sufficient justification to change
the userspace visible behavior.

In previous conversations it was suggested that some of these cleanups
did not stand on their own. I think I have managed to organize things
so all of their patches stand on their own.

Which means that if for some reason the last change needs to be reverted
we can still keep the gains from the other changes.

Eric W. Biederman (6):
signal: Remove the bogus sigkill_pending in ptrace_stop
ptrace: Remove the unnecessary arguments from arch_ptrace_stop
exec: Check for a pending fatal signal instead of core_state
exit: Factor coredump_exit_mm out of exit_mm
coredump: Don't perform any cleanups before dumping core
coredump: Limit coredumps to a single thread group

coredump: Don't perform any cleanups before dumping core

Rename coredump_exit_mm to coredump_task_exit and call it from do_exit
before PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT, and before any cleanup work for a task
happens. This ensures that an accurate copy of the process can be
captured in the coredump as no cleanup for the process happens before
the coredump completes. This also ensures that PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT
will not be visited by any thread until the coredump is complete.

Add a new flag PF_POSTCOREDUMP so that tasks that have passed through
coredump_task_exit can be recognized and ignored in zap_process.

Now that all of the coredumping happens before exit_mm remove code to
test for a coredump in progress from mm_release.

Replace "may_ptrace_stop()" with a simple test of "current->ptrace".
The other tests in may_ptrace_stop all concern avoiding stopping
during a coredump. These tests are no longer necessary as it is now
guaranteed that fatal_signal_pending will be set if the code enters
ptrace_stop during a coredump. The code in ptrace_stop is guaranteed
not to stop if fatal_signal_pending returns true.

Until this change "ptrace_event(PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT)" could call
ptrace_stop without fatal_signal_pending being true, as signals are
dequeued in get_signal before calling do_exit. This is no longer
an issue as "ptrace_event(PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT)" is no longer reached
until after the coredump completes.

mm: introduce process_mrelease system call

In modern systems it's not unusual to have a system component monitoring
memory conditions of the system and tasked with keeping system memory
pressure under control. One way to accomplish that is to kill
non-essential processes to free up memory for more important ones.
Examples of this are Facebook's OOM killer daemon called oomd and
Android's low memory killer daemon called lmkd.

For such system component it's important to be able to free memory quickly
and efficiently. Unfortunately the time process takes to free up its
memory after receiving a SIGKILL might vary based on the state of the
process (uninterruptible sleep), size and OPP level of the core the
process is running. A mechanism to free resources of the target process
in a more predictable way would improve system's ability to control its
memory pressure.

Introduce process_mrelease system call that releases memory of a dying
process from the context of the caller. This way the memory is freed in a
more controllable way with CPU affinity and priority of the caller. The
workload of freeing the memory will also be charged to the caller. The
operation is allowed only on a dying process.

After previous discussions [1, 2, 3] the decision was made [4] to
introduce a dedicated system call to cover this use case.

The API is as follows,

int process_mrelease(int pidfd, unsigned int flags);

DESCRIPTION
The process_mrelease() system call is used to free the memory of
an exiting process.

The pidfd selects the process referred to by the PID file
descriptor.
(See pidfd_open(2) for further information)

The flags argument is reserved for future use; currently, this
argument must be specified as 0.

RETURN VALUE
On success, process_mrelease() returns 0. On error, -1 is
returned and errno is set to indicate the error.

ERRORS
EBADF pidfd is not a valid PID file descriptor.

EAGAIN Failed to release part of the address space.

EINTR The call was interrupted by a signal; see signal(7).

EINVAL flags is not 0.

EINVAL The memory of the task cannot be released because the
process is not exiting, the address space is shared
with another live process or there is a core dump in
progress.

ENOSYS This system call is not supported, for example, without
MMU support built into Linux.

ESRCH The target process does not exist (i.e., it has terminated
and been waited on).
