[PATCH 1/3] genalloc: track beginning of allocations
Igor Stoppa

Wed May 2 01:05:20 UTC 2018
The genalloc library is only capable of tracking if a certain unit of
allocation is in use or not.
It is not capable of discerning where the memory associated to an
allocation request begins and where it ends.
The reason is that units of allocations are tracked by using a bitmap,
where each bit represents that the unit is either allocated (1) or
available (0).
The user of the API must keep track of how much space was requested, if
it ever needs to be freed.
This can cause errors being undetected.
>From a security standpoint, such errors could be exploited - or even
forcibly caused - by an attacker, trying to obtain memory still in use
by live pointer.
Examples:
* Only a subset of the memory provided to an allocation request is freed
* The memory from a subsequent allocation is freed (potential attack)
* The memory being freed doesn't start at the beginning of an
allocation. (potential attack)
The bitmap is used because it allows to perform lockless read/write
access, where this is supported by hw through cmpxchg.
Similarly, it is possible to scan the bitmap for a sufficiently long
sequence of zeros, to identify zones available for allocation.
This patch doubles the space reserved in the bitmap for each allocation,
to track their beginning.
For details, see the documentation inside lib/genalloc.c
The primary effect of this patch is that code using the gen_alloc
library does not need anymore to keep track of the size of the
allocations it makes.
Prior to this patch, it was necessary to keep track of the size of the
allocation, so that it would be possible, later on, to know how much
space should be freed.
Now, users of the api can choose to etiher still specify explicitly the
size, or let the library determine it, by giving a value of 0.
However, even when the value is specified, the library still uses its on
understanding of the space associated with a certain allocation, to
confirm that they are consistent.
This verification also confirms that the patch works correctly.
Eventually, the extra parameter (and the corresponding verification)
must be dropped, in favor of a simplified API.
But this patch allows to transition them individually, while ensuring
that the memory being freed has both a legal start and size.
>From the perspective of performance imapact, the patch doubles the size
of the bitmap that must be parsed, however the lockless allocations is
preserved.
Regarding the actual amount of bits occupied, the current users of
genalloc are of 2 main types and the size of one allocation unit in the
bitmap corresponds respectively to the following:
* SRAM / MURAM / small memory allocators, one allocation unit corresponds
to either 1 or few bytes of special memory.
However these kind of memory come in small sizes (few tens of kbytes),
because they are often on-die and tend to take up space.
Ex: 48kB SRAM, each byte mapped individually.
48kB -> 6kB bitmap prepatch, 12kB bitmap after patch
This type of memory is usually allocated during init or anyway at system
startup and then used to preserve system status while the rest of the
core/SoC is powered down.
* DMA memory pools, one allocation unit corresponds to 1 page
Ex: 1MB allocation request, with PAGE_SIZE = 4kB
1MB -> 32B bitmap prepatch, 64B bitmap after patch.
Assuming a cache line size of 64B, they would both fit in one.
Also in this case, DMA buffers are typically established when either the
system or a specific peripheral is brought up, but they are not
continuously allocated and destroyed. Even if the allocation were to
become slightly slower, it would not bring any significant performance
loss.
Furthermore, since the data in the bitmap is accessed sequentially, it
should be prefetched for read, which means tha the increased time spent
parsing the bitmap should be negligible, compared to the actual use of the
memory being allocated.

+ * Encoding of the bitmap tracking the allocations
+ * -----------------------------------------------
+ *
+ * The bitmap is composed of units of allocations.
+ *
+ * Each unit of allocation is represented using 2 consecutive bits.
+ *
+ * This makes it possible to encode, for each unit of allocation,
+ * information about:
+ * - allocation status (busy/free)
+ * - beginning of a sequennce of allocation units (first / successive)
+ *
+ *
+ * Dictionary of allocation units (msb to the left, lsb to the right):
+ *
+ * 11: first allocation unit in the allocation
+ * 10: any subsequent allocation unit (if any) in the allocation
+ * 00: available allocation unit
+ * 01: invalid
+ *
+ * Example, using the same notation as above - MSb.......LSb:
+ *
+ * ...000010111100000010101011 <-- Read in this direction.
+ * \__|\__|\|\____|\______|
+ * | | | | \___ 4 used allocation units
+ * | | | \___________ 3 empty allocation units
+ * | | \_________________ 1 used allocation unit
+ * | \___________________ 2 used allocation units
+ * \_______________________ 2 empty allocation units
+ *
+ * The encoding allows for lockless operations, such as:
+ * - search for a sufficiently large range of allocation units
+ * - reservation of a selected range of allocation units
+ * - release of a specific allocation
+ *
+ * The alignment at which to perform the search for sequence of empty
+ * allocation units (marked as zeros in the bitmap) is 2^1.
+ *
+ * This means that an allocation can start only at even places
+ * (bit 0, bit 2, etc.) in the bitmap.
+ *
+ * Therefore, the number of zeroes to look for must be twice the number
+ * of desired allocation units.
+ *
+ * When it's time to free the memory associated to an allocation request,
+ * it's a matter of checking if the corresponding allocation unit is
+ * really the beginning of an allocation (both bits are set to 1).
+ *
+ * Looking for the ending can also be performed locklessly.
+ * It's sufficient to identify the first mapped allocation unit
+ * that is represented either as free (00) or busy (11).
+ * Even if the allocation status should change in the meanwhile, it
+ * doesn't matter, since it can only transition between free (00) and
+ * first-allocated (11).
+ *
+ * The parameter indicating to the *_free() function the size of the
+ * space that should be freed can be either set to 0, for automated
+ * assessment, or it can be specified explicitly.
+ *
+ * In case it is specified explicitly, the value is verified agaisnt what
+ * the library is tracking internally.
+ *
+ * If ever needed, the bitmap could be extended, assigning larger amounts
+ * of bits to each allocation unit (the increase must follow powers of 2),
+ * to track other properties of the allocations.
