commit 9bbd42e79720122334226afad9ddcac1c3e6d373 upstream.

Doing a "get_user_pages()" on a copy-on-write page for reading can be
ambiguous: the page can be COW'ed at any time afterwards, and the
direction of a COW event isn't defined.

Yes, whoever writes to it will generally do the COW, but if the thread
that did the get_user_pages() unmapped the page before the write (and
that could happen due to memory pressure in addition to any outright
action), the writer could also just take over the old page instead.

End result: the get_user_pages() call might result in a page pointer
that is no longer associated with the original VM, and is associated
with - and controlled by - another VM having taken it over instead.

So when doing a get_user_pages() on a COW mapping, the only really safe
thing to do would be to break the COW when getting the page, even when
only getting it for reading.

At the same time, some users simply don't even care.

For example, the perf code wants to look up the page not because it
cares about the page, but because the code simply wants to look up the
physical address of the access for informational purposes, and doesn't
really care about races when a page might be unmapped and remapped
elsewhere.

This adds logic to force a COW event by setting FOLL_WRITE on any
copy-on-write mapping when FOLL_GET (or FOLL_PIN) is used to get a page
pointer as a result.

The current semantics end up being:

 - __get_user_pages_fast(): no change. If you don't ask for a write,
   you won't break COW. You'd better know what you're doing.

 - get_user_pages_fast(): the fast-case "look it up in the page tables
   without anything getting mmap_sem" now refuses to follow a read-only
   page, since it might need COW breaking.  Which happens in the slow
   path - the fast path doesn't know if the memory might be COW or not.

 - get_user_pages() (including the slow-path fallback for gup_fast()):
   for a COW mapping, turn on FOLL_WRITE for FOLL_GET/FOLL_PIN, with
   very similar semantics to FOLL_FORCE.

If it turns out that we want finer granularity (ie "only break COW when
it might actually matter" - things like the zero page are special and
don't need to be broken) we might need to push these semantics deeper
into the lookup fault path.  So if people care enough, it's possible
that we might end up adding a new internal FOLL_BREAK_COW flag to go
with the internal FOLL_COW flag we already have for tracking "I had a
COW".

Alternatively, if it turns out that different callers might want to
explicitly control the forced COW break behavior, we might even want to
make such a flag visible to the users of get_user_pages() instead of

[ Upstream commit 504e070dc08f757bccaed6d05c0f53ecbfac8a23 ]

When debugging the bug reported by Wang Yugui [1], try_to_unmap() may
fail, but the first VM_BUG_ON_PAGE() just checks page_mapcount() however
it may miss the failure when head page is unmapped but other subpage is
mapped.  Then the second DEBUG_VM BUG() that check total mapcount would
catch it.  This may incur some confusion.

As this is not a fatal issue, so consolidate the two DEBUG_VM checks
into one VM_WARN_ON_ONCE_PAGE().

mm, thp: make do_huge_pmd_wp_page() lock page for testing mapcount 2021-03-03T16:44:32+00:00 Vlastimil Babka vbabka@suse.cz 2021-02-26T16:22:00+00:00 cc916628eae7a8494b9a3de329d7baf12fd964c6 Jann reported [1] a race between __split_huge_pmd_locked() and page_trans_huge_map_swapcount() which can result in a page to be reused instead of COWed. This was later assigned CVE-2020-29368. This was fixed by commit c444eb564fb1 ("mm: thp: make the THP mapcount atomic against __split_huge_pmd_locked()") by doing the split under the page lock, while all users of page_trans_huge_map_swapcount() were already also under page lock. The fix was backported also to 4.9 stable series. When testing the backport on a 4.12 based kernel, Nicolai noticed the POC from [1] still reproduces after backporting c444eb564fb1 and identified a missing page lock in do_huge_pmd_wp_page() around the call to page_trans_huge_mapcount(). The page lock was only added in ba3c4ce6def4 ("mm, THP, swap: make reuse_swap_page() works for THP swapped out") in 4.14. The commit also wrapped page_trans_huge_mapcount() into page_trans_huge_map_swapcount() for the purposes of COW decisions. I have verified that 4.9.y indeed also reproduces with the POC. Backporting ba3c4ce6def4 alone however is not possible as it's part of a larger effort of optimizing THP swapping, which would be risky to backport fully. Therefore this 4.9-stable-only patch just wraps page_trans_huge_mapcount() in page_trans_huge_mapcount() under page lock the same way as ba3c4ce6def4 does, but without the page_trans_huge_map_swapcount() part. Other callers of page_trans_huge_mapcount() are all under page lock already. I have verified the POC no longer reproduces afterwards.

mm/userfaultfd: do not access vma->vm_mm after calling handle_userfault() 2020-12-02T07:31:24+00:00 Gerald Schaefer gerald.schaefer@linux.ibm.com 2020-11-23T17:05:38+00:00 003be909a1e8bd9e8aca4e32ecf9195323b40087 commit bfe8cc1db02ab243c62780f17fc57f65bde0afe1 upstream. Alexander reported a syzkaller / KASAN finding on s390, see below for complete output. In do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page(), the pre-allocated pagetable will be freed in some cases. In the case of userfaultfd_missing(), this will happen after calling handle_userfault(), which might have released the mmap_lock. Therefore, the following pte_free(vma->vm_mm, pgtable) will access an unstable vma->vm_mm, which could have been freed or re-used already. For all architectures other than s390 this will go w/o any negative impact, because pte_free() simply frees the page and ignores the passed-in mm. The implementation for SPARC32 would also access mm->page_table_lock for pte_free(), but there is no THP support in SPARC32, so the buggy code path will not be used there. For s390, the mm->context.pgtable_list is being used to maintain the 2K pagetable fragments, and operating on an already freed or even re-used mm could result in various more or less subtle bugs due to list / pagetable corruption. Fix this by calling pte_free() before handle_userfault(), similar to how it is already done in __do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page() for the WRITE / non-huge_zero_page case.

commit bfe8cc1db02ab243c62780f17fc57f65bde0afe1 upstream.

Alexander reported a syzkaller / KASAN finding on s390, see below for
complete output.

In do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page(), the pre-allocated pagetable will be
freed in some cases.  In the case of userfaultfd_missing(), this will
happen after calling handle_userfault(), which might have released the
mmap_lock.  Therefore, the following pte_free(vma->vm_mm, pgtable) will
access an unstable vma->vm_mm, which could have been freed or re-used
already.

For all architectures other than s390 this will go w/o any negative
impact, because pte_free() simply frees the page and ignores the
passed-in mm.  The implementation for SPARC32 would also access
mm->page_table_lock for pte_free(), but there is no THP support in
SPARC32, so the buggy code path will not be used there.

For s390, the mm->context.pgtable_list is being used to maintain the 2K
pagetable fragments, and operating on an already freed or even re-used
mm could result in various more or less subtle bugs due to list /
pagetable corruption.

Fix this by calling pte_free() before handle_userfault(), similar to how
it is already done in __do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page() for the WRITE /
non-huge_zero_page case.

Commit 6b251fc96cf2c ("userfaultfd: call handle_userfault() for
userfaultfd_missing() faults") actually introduced both, the
do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page() and also __do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page()
changes wrt to calling handle_userfault(), but only in the latter case
it put the pte_free() before calling handle_userfault().

mm: thp: make the THP mapcount atomic against __split_huge_pmd_locked() 2020-06-20T08:24:19+00:00 Andrea Arcangeli aarcange@redhat.com 2020-05-27T23:06:24+00:00 d93d7bd61072a03dde173d36ae5815488a585fc0 commit c444eb564fb16645c172d550359cb3d75fe8a040 upstream. Write protect anon page faults require an accurate mapcount to decide if to break the COW or not. This is implemented in the THP path with reuse_swap_page() -> page_trans_huge_map_swapcount()/page_trans_huge_mapcount(). If the COW triggers while the other processes sharing the page are under a huge pmd split, to do an accurate reading, we must ensure the mapcount isn't computed while it's being transferred from the head page to the tail pages. reuse_swap_cache() already runs serialized by the page lock, so it's enough to add the page lock around __split_huge_pmd_locked too, in order to add the missing serialization. Note: the commit in "Fixes" is just to facilitate the backporting, because the code before such commit didn't try to do an accurate THP mapcount calculation and it instead used the page_count() to decide if to COW or not. Both the page_count and the pin_count are THP-wide refcounts, so they're inaccurate if used in reuse_swap_page().

commit c444eb564fb16645c172d550359cb3d75fe8a040 upstream.

Write protect anon page faults require an accurate mapcount to decide
if to break the COW or not. This is implemented in the THP path with
reuse_swap_page() ->
page_trans_huge_map_swapcount()/page_trans_huge_mapcount().

If the COW triggers while the other processes sharing the page are
under a huge pmd split, to do an accurate reading, we must ensure the
mapcount isn't computed while it's being transferred from the head
page to the tail pages.

reuse_swap_cache() already runs serialized by the page lock, so it's
enough to add the page lock around __split_huge_pmd_locked too, in
order to add the missing serialization.

Note: the commit in "Fixes" is just to facilitate the backporting,
because the code before such commit didn't try to do an accurate THP
mapcount calculation and it instead used the page_count() to decide if
to COW or not. Both the page_count and the pin_count are THP-wide
refcounts, so they're inaccurate if used in
reuse_swap_page(). Reverting such commit (besides the unrelated fix to
the local anon_vma assignment) would have also opened the window for
memory corruption side effects to certain workloads as documented in
such commit header.
