commit 1da52815d5f1b654c89044db0cdc6adce43da1f1 upstream.

Syzbot reported a couple issues introduced by commit 44e602b4e52f
("binder_alloc: add missing mmap_lock calls when using the VMA"), in
which we attempt to acquire the mmap_lock when alloc-&gt;vma_vm_mm has not
been initialized yet.

This can happen if a binder_proc receives a transaction without having
previously called mmap() to setup the binder_proc-&gt;alloc space in [1].
Also, a similar issue occurs via binder_alloc_print_pages() when we try
to dump the debugfs binder stats file in [2].

Sample of syzbot's crash report:

Fix these issues by setting up alloc-&gt;vma_vm_mm pointer during open()

commit b0cab80ecd54ae3b2356bb081af0bffd538c8265 upstream.

When munmapping a vma, the mmap_lock can be degraded to a write before
calling close() on the file handle.  The binder close() function calls
binder_alloc_set_vma() to clear the vma address, which now has a lock dep
check for writing on the mmap_lock.  Change the lockdep check to ensure
the reading lock is held while clearing and keep the write check while
writing.

commit 44e602b4e52f70f04620bbbf4fe46ecb40170bde upstream.

Take the mmap_read_lock() when using the VMA in binder_alloc_print_pages()
and when checking for a VMA in binder_alloc_new_buf_locked().

It is worth noting binder_alloc_new_buf_locked() drops the VMA read lock
after it verifies a VMA exists, but may be taken again deeper in the call
stack, if necessary.

[ Upstream commit a43cfc87caaf46710c8027a8c23b8a55f1078f19 ]

Do not record a pointer to a VMA outside of the mmap_lock for later use.
This is unsafe and there are a number of failure paths *after* the
recorded VMA pointer may be freed during setup.  There is no callback to
the driver to clear the saved pointer from generic mm code.  Furthermore,
the VMA pointer may become stale if any number of VMA operations end up
freeing the VMA so saving it was fragile to being with.

Instead, change the binder_alloc struct to record the start address of the
VMA and use vma_lookup() to get the vma when needed.  Add lockdep
mmap_lock checks on updates to the vma pointer to ensure the lock is held
and depend on that lock for synchronization of readers and writers - which
was already the case anyways, so the smp_wmb()/smp_rmb() was not
necessary.

<title>binder: Use memcpy_{to,from}_page() in binder_alloc_do_buffer_copy()</title>

<id>e88a6a8fece9b92be4f55735134a022061e6e68b</id>
<content type='text'>
The use of kmap_atomic() is being deprecated in favor of kmap_local_page()
where it is feasible. Each call of kmap_atomic() in the kernel creates
a non-preemptible section and disable pagefaults. This could be a source
of unwanted latency, so kmap_local_page() should be preferred.

With kmap_local_page(), the mapping is per thread, CPU local and not
globally visible. Furthermore, the mapping can be acquired from any context
(including interrupts). binder_alloc_do_buffer_copy() is a function where
the use of kmap_local_page() in place of kmap_atomic() is correctly suited.

Use kmap_local_page() / kunmap_local() in place of kmap_atomic() /
kunmap_atomic() but, instead of open coding the mappings and call memcpy()
to and from the virtual addresses of the mapped pages, prefer the use of
the memcpy_{to,from}_page() wrappers (as suggested by Christophe
Jaillet).

The use of kmap_atomic() is being deprecated in favor of kmap_local_page()
where it is feasible. Each call of kmap_atomic() in the kernel creates
a non-preemptible section and disable pagefaults. This could be a source
of unwanted latency, so kmap_local_page() should be preferred.

With kmap_local_page(), the mapping is per thread, CPU local and not
globally visible. Furthermore, the mapping can be acquired from any context
(including interrupts). binder_alloc_do_buffer_copy() is a function where
the use of kmap_local_page() in place of kmap_atomic() is correctly suited.

Use kmap_local_page() / kunmap_local() in place of kmap_atomic() /
kunmap_atomic() but, instead of open coding the mappings and call memcpy()
to and from the virtual addresses of the mapped pages, prefer the use of
the memcpy_{to,from}_page() wrappers (as suggested by Christophe
Jaillet).

<title>binder: fix async_free_space accounting for empty parcels</title>

In 4.13, commit 74310e06be4d ("android: binder: Move buffer out of area shared with user space")
fixed a kernel structure visibility issue. As part of that patch,
sizeof(void *) was used as the buffer size for 0-length data payloads so
the driver could detect abusive clients sending 0-length asynchronous
transactions to a server by enforcing limits on async_free_size.

Unfortunately, on the "free" side, the accounting of async_free_space
did not add the sizeof(void *) back. The result was that up to 8-bytes of
async_free_space were leaked on every async transaction of 8-bytes or
less.  These small transactions are uncommon, so this accounting issue
has gone undetected for several years.

The fix is to use "buffer_size" (the allocated buffer size) instead of
"size" (the logical buffer size) when updating the async_free_space
during the free operation. These are the same except for this
corner case of asynchronous transactions with payloads &lt; 8 bytes.

<title>binder: tell userspace to dump current backtrace when detected oneway spamming</title>

When async binder buffer got exhausted, some normal oneway transactions
will also be discarded and may cause system or application failures. By
that time, the binder debug information we dump may not be relevant to
the root cause. And this issue is difficult to debug if without the
backtrace of the thread sending spam.

This change will send BR_ONEWAY_SPAM_SUSPECT to userspace when oneway
spamming is detected, request to dump current backtrace. Oneway spamming
will be reported only once when exceeding the threshold (target process
dips below 80% of its oneway space, and current process is responsible for
either more than 50 transactions, or more than 50% of the oneway space).
And the detection will restart when the async buffer has returned to a
healthy state.
