commit c1e63117711977cc4295b2ce73de29dd17066c82 upstream.

To clear a user buffer we cannot simply use memset, we have to use
clear_user().  With a virtio-mem device that registers a vmcore_cb and
has some logically unplugged memory inside an added Linux memory block,
I can easily trigger a BUG by copying the vmcore via "cp":

Some x86-64 CPUs have a CPU feature called "Supervisor Mode Access
Prevention (SMAP)", which is used to detect wrong access from the kernel
to user buffers like this: SMAP triggers a permissions violation on
wrong access.  In the x86-64 variant of clear_user(), SMAP is properly
handled via clac()+stac().

To fix, properly use clear_user() when we're dealing with a user buffer.

[ Upstream commit 9066e5cfb73cdbcdbb49e87999482ab615e9fc76 ]

Recently we found an issue on our production environment that when memcg
oom is triggered the oom killer doesn't chose the process with largest
resident memory but chose the first scanned process.  Note that all
processes in this memcg have the same oom_score_adj, so the oom killer
should chose the process with largest resident memory.

Bellow is part of the oom info, which is enough to analyze this issue.

[7516988.092344] oom_reaper: reaped process 5740 (pause), now anon-rss:0kB, file-rss:0kB, shmem-rss:0kB

We can find that the first scanned process 5740 (pause) was killed, but
its rss is only one page.  That is because, when we calculate the oom
badness in oom_badness(), we always ignore the negtive point and convert
all of these negtive points to 1.  Now as oom_score_adj of all the
processes in this targeted memcg have the same value -998, the points of
these processes are all negtive value.  As a result, the first scanned
process will be killed.

The oom_socre_adj (-998) in this memcg is set by kubelet, because it is a
a Guaranteed pod, which has higher priority to prevent from being killed
by system oom.

To fix this issue, we should make the calculation of oom point more
accurate.  We can achieve it by convert the chosen_point from 'unsigned
long' to 'long'.

[7516988.092344] oom_reaper: reaped process 5740 (pause), now anon-rss:0kB, file-rss:0kB, shmem-rss:0kB

We can find that the first scanned process 5740 (pause) was killed, but
its rss is only one page.  That is because, when we calculate the oom
badness in oom_badness(), we always ignore the negtive point and convert
all of these negtive points to 1.  Now as oom_score_adj of all the
processes in this targeted memcg have the same value -998, the points of
these processes are all negtive value.  As a result, the first scanned
process will be killed.

The oom_socre_adj (-998) in this memcg is set by kubelet, because it is a
a Guaranteed pod, which has higher priority to prevent from being killed
by system oom.

To fix this issue, we should make the calculation of oom point more
accurate.  We can achieve it by convert the chosen_point from 'unsigned
long' to 'long'.

[ Upstream commit d238692b4b9f2c36e35af4c6e6f6da36184aeb3e ]

Use size_t when capping the count argument received by mem_rw(). Since
count is size_t, using min_t(int, ...) can lead to a negative value
that will later be passed to access_remote_vm(), which can cause
unexpected behavior.

Since we are capping the value to at maximum PAGE_SIZE, the conversion
from size_t to int when passing it to access_remote_vm() as "len"
shouldn't be a problem.

<title>proc: only require mm_struct for writing</title>

commit 94f0b2d4a1d0c52035aef425da5e022bd2cb1c71 upstream.

Commit 591a22c14d3f ("proc: Track /proc/$pid/attr/ opener mm_struct") we
started using __mem_open() to track the mm_struct at open-time, so that
we could then check it for writes.

But that also ended up making the permission checks at open time much
stricter - and not just for writes, but for reads too.  And that in turn
caused a regression for at least Fedora 29, where NIC interfaces fail to
start when using NetworkManager.

Since only the write side wanted the mm_struct test, ignore any failures
by __mem_open() at open time, leaving reads unaffected.  The write()
time verification of the mm_struct pointer will then catch the failure
case because a NULL pointer will not match a valid 'current-&gt;mm'.

commit 591a22c14d3f45cc38bd1931c593c221df2f1881 upstream.

Commit bfb819ea20ce ("proc: Check /proc/$pid/attr/ writes against file opener")
tried to make sure that there could not be a confusion between the opener of
a /proc/$pid/attr/ file and the writer. It used struct cred to make sure
the privileges didn't change. However, there were existing cases where a more
privileged thread was passing the opened fd to a differently privileged thread
(during container setup). Instead, use mm_struct to track whether the opener
and writer are still the same process. (This is what several other proc files
already do, though for different reasons.)

commit bfb819ea20ce8bbeeba17e1a6418bf8bda91fc28 upstream.

Fix another "confused deputy" weakness[1]. Writes to /proc/$pid/attr/
files need to check the opener credentials, since these fds do not
transition state across execve(). Without this, it is possible to
trick another process (which may have different credentials) to write
to its own /proc/$pid/attr/ files, leading to unexpected and possibly
exploitable behaviors.

[ Upstream commit c6c75deda81344c3a95d1d1f606d5cee109e5d54 ]

Commit 1fde6f21d90f ("proc: fix /proc/net/* after setns(2)") only forced
revalidation of regular files under /proc/net/

However, /proc/net/ is unusual in the sense of /proc/net/foo handlers
take netns pointer from parent directory which is old netns.

Steps to reproduce:

	(void)open("/proc/net/sctp/snmp", O_RDONLY);
	unshare(CLONE_NEWNET);

	int fd = open("/proc/net/sctp/snmp", O_RDONLY);
	read(fd, &amp;c, 1);

Read will read wrong data from original netns.

Patch forces lookup on every directory under /proc/net .

[ Upstream commit e06689bf57017ac022ccf0f2a5071f760821ce0f ]

Currently gluing PDE into global /proc tree is done under lock, but
changing -&gt;nlink is not.  Additionally struct proc_dir_entry::nlink is
not atomic so updates can be lost.

<title>exec: Transform exec_update_mutex into a rw_semaphore</title>

[ Upstream commit f7cfd871ae0c5008d94b6f66834e7845caa93c15 ]

Recently syzbot reported[0] that there is a deadlock amongst the users
of exec_update_mutex.  The problematic lock ordering found by lockdep
was:

   perf_event_open  (exec_update_mutex -&gt; ovl_i_mutex)
   chown            (ovl_i_mutex       -&gt; sb_writes)
   sendfile         (sb_writes         -&gt; p-&gt;lock)
     by reading from a proc file and writing to overlayfs
   proc_pid_syscall (p-&gt;lock           -&gt; exec_update_mutex)

While looking at possible solutions it occured to me that all of the
users and possible users involved only wanted to state of the given
process to remain the same.  They are all readers.  The only writer is
exec.

There is no reason for readers to block on each other.  So fix
this deadlock by transforming exec_update_mutex into a rw_semaphore
named exec_update_lock that only exec takes for writing.

<title>proc: use untagged_addr() for pagemap_read addresses</title>

commit 40d6366e9d86d9a67b5642040e76082fdb5bdcf9 upstream.

When we try to visit the pagemap of a tagged userspace pointer, we find
that the start_vaddr is not correct because of the tag.
To fix it, we should untag the userspace pointers in pagemap_read().

I tested with 5.10-rc4 and the issue remains.

Explanation from Catalin in [1]:

 "Arguably, that's a user-space bug since tagged file offsets were never
  supported. In this case it's not even a tag at bit 56 as per the arm64
  tagged address ABI but rather down to bit 47. You could say that the
  problem is caused by the C library (malloc()) or whoever created the
  tagged vaddr and passed it to this function. It's not a kernel
  regression as we've never supported it.

  Now, pagemap is a special case where the offset is usually not
  generated as a classic file offset but rather derived by shifting a
  user virtual address. I guess we can make a concession for pagemap
  (only) and allow such offset with the tag at bit (56 - PAGE_SHIFT + 3)"

My test code is based on [2]:

A userspace pointer which has been tagged by 0xb4: 0xb400007662f541c8

userspace program:

  uint64 OsLayer::VirtualToPhysical(void *vaddr) {
	uint64 frame, paddr, pfnmask, pagemask;
	int pagesize = sysconf(_SC_PAGESIZE);
	off64_t off = ((uintptr_t)vaddr) / pagesize * 8; // off = 0xb400007662f541c8 / pagesize * 8 = 0x5a00003b317aa0
	int fd = open(kPagemapPath, O_RDONLY);
	...

	if (lseek64(fd, off, SEEK_SET) != off || read(fd, &amp;frame, 8) != 8) {
		int err = errno;
		string errtxt = ErrorString(err);
		if (fd &gt;= 0)
			close(fd);
		return 0;
	}
  ...
  }

kernel fs/proc/task_mmu.c:

  static ssize_t pagemap_read(struct file *file, char __user *buf,
		size_t count, loff_t *ppos)
  {
	...
	src = *ppos;
	svpfn = src / PM_ENTRY_BYTES; // svpfn == 0xb400007662f54
	start_vaddr = svpfn &lt;&lt; PAGE_SHIFT; // start_vaddr == 0xb400007662f54000
	end_vaddr = mm-&gt;task_size;

	/* watch out for wraparound */
	// svpfn == 0xb400007662f54
	// (mm-&gt;task_size &gt;&gt; PAGE) == 0x8000000
	if (svpfn &gt; mm-&gt;task_size &gt;&gt; PAGE_SHIFT) // the condition is true because of the tag 0xb4
		start_vaddr = end_vaddr;

	ret = 0;
	while (count &amp;&amp; (start_vaddr &lt; end_vaddr)) { // we cannot visit correct entry because start_vaddr is set to end_vaddr
		int len;
		unsigned long end;
		...
	}
	...
  }
