commit 8f34f1eac3820fc2722e5159acceb22545b30b0d upstream.

We tried to do something similar in b569a1760782 ("userfaultfd: wp: drop
_PAGE_UFFD_WP properly when fork") previously, but it's not doing it all
right..  A few fixes around the code path:

1. We were referencing VM_UFFD_WP vm_flags on the _old_ vma rather
   than the new vma.  That's overlooked in b569a1760782, so it won't work
   as expected.  Thanks to the recent rework on fork code
   (7a4830c380f3a8b3), we can easily get the new vma now, so switch the
   checks to that.

2. Dropping the uffd-wp bit in copy_huge_pmd() could be wrong if the
   huge pmd is a migration huge pmd.  When it happens, instead of using
   pmd_uffd_wp(), we should use pmd_swp_uffd_wp().  The fix is simply to
   handle them separately.

3. Forget to carry over uffd-wp bit for a write migration huge pmd
   entry.  This also happens in copy_huge_pmd(), where we converted a
   write huge migration entry into a read one.

4. In copy_nonpresent_pte(), drop uffd-wp if necessary for swap ptes.

5. In copy_present_page() when COW is enforced when fork(), we also
   need to pass over the uffd-wp bit if VM_UFFD_WP is armed on the new
   vma, and when the pte to be copied has uffd-wp bit set.

Remove the comment in copy_present_pte() about this.  It won't help a huge
lot to only comment there, but comment everywhere would be an overkill.
Let's assume the commit messages would help.

[ Upstream commit 2799e77529c2a25492a4395db93996e3dacd762d ]

When I was investigating the swap code, I found the below possible race
window:

CPU 1                                   	CPU 2
-----                                   	-----
do_swap_page
  if (data_race(si-&gt;flags &amp; SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO)
  swap_readpage
    if (data_race(sis-&gt;flags &amp; SWP_FS_OPS)) {
                                        	swapoff
					  	  ..
					  	  p-&gt;swap_file = NULL;
					  	  ..
    struct file *swap_file = sis-&gt;swap_file;
    struct address_space *mapping = swap_file-&gt;f_mapping;[oops!]

Note that for the pages that are swapped in through swap cache, this isn't
an issue. Because the page is locked, and the swap entry will be marked
with SWAP_HAS_CACHE, so swapoff() can not proceed until the page has been
unlocked.

Fix this race by using get/put_swap_device() to guard against concurrent
swapoff.

<title>mm/thp: unmap_mapping_page() to fix THP truncate_cleanup_page()</title>

[ Upstream commit 22061a1ffabdb9c3385de159c5db7aac3a4df1cc ]

There is a race between THP unmapping and truncation, when truncate sees
pmd_none() and skips the entry, after munmap's zap_huge_pmd() cleared
it, but before its page_remove_rmap() gets to decrement
compound_mapcount: generating false "BUG: Bad page cache" reports that
the page is still mapped when deleted.  This commit fixes that, but not
in the way I hoped.

The first attempt used try_to_unmap(page, TTU_SYNC|TTU_IGNORE_MLOCK)
instead of unmap_mapping_range() in truncate_cleanup_page(): it has
often been an annoyance that we usually call unmap_mapping_range() with
no pages locked, but there apply it to a single locked page.
try_to_unmap() looks more suitable for a single locked page.

However, try_to_unmap_one() contains a VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(!pvmw.pte,page):
it is used to insert THP migration entries, but not used to unmap THPs.
Copy zap_huge_pmd() and add THP handling now? Perhaps, but their TLB
needs are different, I'm too ignorant of the DAX cases, and couldn't
decide how far to go for anon+swap.  Set that aside.

The second attempt took a different tack: make no change in truncate.c,
but modify zap_huge_pmd() to insert an invalidated huge pmd instead of
clearing it initially, then pmd_clear() between page_remove_rmap() and
unlocking at the end.  Nice.  But powerpc blows that approach out of the
water, with its serialize_against_pte_lookup(), and interesting pgtable
usage.  It would need serious help to get working on powerpc (with a
minor optimization issue on s390 too).  Set that aside.

Just add an "if (page_mapped(page)) synchronize_rcu();" or other such
delay, after unmapping in truncate_cleanup_page()? Perhaps, but though
that's likely to reduce or eliminate the number of incidents, it would
give less assurance of whether we had identified the problem correctly.

This successful iteration introduces "unmap_mapping_page(page)" instead
of try_to_unmap(), and goes the usual unmap_mapping_range_tree() route,
with an addition to details.  Then zap_pmd_range() watches for this
case, and does spin_unlock(pmd_lock) if so - just like
page_vma_mapped_walk() now does in the PVMW_SYNC case.  Not pretty, but
safe.

Note that unmap_mapping_page() is doing a VM_BUG_ON(!PageLocked) to
assert its interface; but currently that's only used to make sure that
page-&gt;mapping is stable, and zap_pmd_range() doesn't care if the page is
locked or not.  Along these lines, in invalidate_inode_pages2_range()
move the initial unmap_mapping_range() out from under page lock, before
then calling unmap_mapping_page() under page lock if still mapped.

needs are different, I'm too ignorant of the DAX cases, and couldn't
decide how far to go for anon+swap.  Set that aside.

The second attempt took a different tack: make no change in truncate.c,
but modify zap_huge_pmd() to insert an invalidated huge pmd instead of
clearing it initially, then pmd_clear() between page_remove_rmap() and
unlocking at the end.  Nice.  But powerpc blows that approach out of the
water, with its serialize_against_pte_lookup(), and interesting pgtable
usage.  It would need serious help to get working on powerpc (with a
minor optimization issue on s390 too).  Set that aside.

Just add an "if (page_mapped(page)) synchronize_rcu();" or other such
delay, after unmapping in truncate_cleanup_page()? Perhaps, but though
that's likely to reduce or eliminate the number of incidents, it would
give less assurance of whether we had identified the problem correctly.

This successful iteration introduces "unmap_mapping_page(page)" instead
of try_to_unmap(), and goes the usual unmap_mapping_range_tree() route,
with an addition to details.  Then zap_pmd_range() watches for this
case, and does spin_unlock(pmd_lock) if so - just like
page_vma_mapped_walk() now does in the PVMW_SYNC case.  Not pretty, but
safe.

Note that unmap_mapping_page() is doing a VM_BUG_ON(!PageLocked) to
assert its interface; but currently that's only used to make sure that
page-&gt;mapping is stable, and zap_pmd_range() doesn't care if the page is
locked or not.  Along these lines, in invalidate_inode_pages2_range()
move the initial unmap_mapping_range() out from under page lock, before
then calling unmap_mapping_page() under page lock if still mapped.

<title>mm: fix race by making init_zero_pfn() early_initcall</title>

commit e720e7d0e983bf05de80b231bccc39f1487f0f16 upstream.

There are code paths that rely on zero_pfn to be fully initialized
before core_initcall.  For example, wq_sysfs_init() is a core_initcall
function that eventually results in a call to kernel_execve, which
causes a page fault with a subsequent mmput.  If zero_pfn is not
initialized by then it may not get cleaned up properly and result in an
error:

  BUG: Bad rss-counter state mm:(ptrval) type:MM_ANONPAGES val:1

Here is an analysis of the race as seen on a MIPS device. On this
particular MT7621 device (Ubiquiti ER-X), zero_pfn is PFN 0 until
initialized, at which point it becomes PFN 5120:

  1. wq_sysfs_init calls into kobject_uevent_env at core_initcall:
       kobject_uevent_env+0x7e4/0x7ec
       kset_register+0x68/0x88
       bus_register+0xdc/0x34c
       subsys_virtual_register+0x34/0x78
       wq_sysfs_init+0x1c/0x4c
       do_one_initcall+0x50/0x1a8
       kernel_init_freeable+0x230/0x2c8
       kernel_init+0x10/0x100
       ret_from_kernel_thread+0x14/0x1c

  2. kobject_uevent_env() calls call_usermodehelper_exec() which executes
     kernel_execve asynchronously.

  3. Memory allocations in kernel_execve cause a page fault, bumping the
     MM reference counter:
       add_mm_counter_fast+0xb4/0xc0
       handle_mm_fault+0x6e4/0xea0
       __get_user_pages.part.78+0x190/0x37c
       __get_user_pages_remote+0x128/0x360
       get_arg_page+0x34/0xa0
       copy_string_kernel+0x194/0x2a4
       kernel_execve+0x11c/0x298
       call_usermodehelper_exec_async+0x114/0x194

  4. In case zero_pfn has not been initialized yet, zap_pte_range does
     not decrement the MM_ANONPAGES RSS counter and the BUG message is
     triggered shortly afterwards when __mmdrop checks the ref counters:
       __mmdrop+0x98/0x1d0
       free_bprm+0x44/0x118
       kernel_execve+0x160/0x1d8
       call_usermodehelper_exec_async+0x114/0x194
       ret_from_kernel_thread+0x14/0x1c

To avoid races such as described above, initialize init_zero_pfn at
early_initcall level.  Depending on the architecture, ZERO_PAGE is
either constant or gets initialized even earlier, at paging_init, so
there is no issue with initializing zero_pfn earlier.

<title>mm/userfaultfd: fix memory corruption due to writeprotect</title>

commit 6ce64428d62026a10cb5d80138ff2f90cc21d367 upstream.

Userfaultfd self-test fails occasionally, indicating a memory corruption.

Analyzing this problem indicates that there is a real bug since mmap_lock
is only taken for read in mwriteprotect_range() and defers flushes, and
since there is insufficient consideration of concurrent deferred TLB
flushes in wp_page_copy().  Although the PTE is flushed from the TLBs in
wp_page_copy(), this flush takes place after the copy has already been
performed, and therefore changes of the page are possible between the time
of the copy and the time in which the PTE is flushed.

To make matters worse, memory-unprotection using userfaultfd also poses a
problem.  Although memory unprotection is logically a promotion of PTE
permissions, and therefore should not require a TLB flush, the current
userrfaultfd code might actually cause a demotion of the architectural PTE
permission: when userfaultfd_writeprotect() unprotects memory region, it
unintentionally *clears* the RW-bit if it was already set.  Note that this
unprotecting a PTE that is not write-protected is a valid use-case: the
userfaultfd monitor might ask to unprotect a region that holds both
write-protected and write-unprotected PTEs.

The scenario that happens in selftests/vm/userfaultfd is as follows:

cpu0				cpu1			cpu2
----				----			----
							[ Writable PTE
							  cached in TLB ]
userfaultfd_writeprotect()
[ write-*unprotect* ]
mwriteprotect_range()
mmap_read_lock()
change_protection()

change_protection_range()
...
change_pte_range()
[ *clear* “write”-bit ]
[ defer TLB flushes ]
				[ page-fault ]
				...
				wp_page_copy()
				 cow_user_page()
				  [ copy page ]
							[ write to old
							  page ]
				...
				 set_pte_at_notify()

A similar scenario can happen:

cpu0		cpu1		cpu2		cpu3
----		----		----		----
						[ Writable PTE
				  		  cached in TLB ]
userfaultfd_writeprotect()
[ write-protect ]
[ deferred TLB flush ]
		userfaultfd_writeprotect()
		[ write-unprotect ]
		[ deferred TLB flush]
				[ page-fault ]
				wp_page_copy()
				 cow_user_page()
				 [ copy page ]
				 ...		[ write to page ]
				set_pte_at_notify()

This race exists since commit 292924b26024 ("userfaultfd: wp: apply
_PAGE_UFFD_WP bit").  Yet, as Yu Zhao pointed, these races became apparent
since commit 09854ba94c6a ("mm: do_wp_page() simplification") which made
wp_page_copy() more likely to take place, specifically if page_count(page)
&gt; 1.

To resolve the aforementioned races, check whether there are pending
flushes on uffd-write-protected VMAs, and if there are, perform a flush
before doing the COW.

Further optimizations will follow to avoid during uffd-write-unprotect
unnecassary PTE write-protection and TLB flushes.

commit 3272cfc2525b3a2810a59312d7a1e6f04a0ca3ef upstream.

page structs are not guaranteed to be contiguous for gigantic pages.  The
routine copy_huge_page_from_user can encounter gigantic pages, yet it
assumes page structs are contiguous when copying pages from user space.

Since page structs for the target gigantic page are not contiguous, the
data copied from user space could overwrite other pages not associated
with the gigantic page and cause data corruption.

Non-contiguous page structs are generally not an issue.  However, they can
exist with a specific kernel configuration and hotplug operations.  For
example: Configure the kernel with CONFIG_SPARSEMEM and
!CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP.  Then, hotplug add memory for the area where
the gigantic page will be allocated.

[ Upstream commit 90a3e375d324b2255b83e3dd29e99e2b05d82aaf ]

Since commit 42e4089c7890 ("x86/speculation/l1tf: Disallow non privileged
high MMIO PROT_NONE mappings"), when the first pfn modify is not allowed,
we would break the loop with pte unchanged.  Then the wrong pte - 1 would
be passed to pte_unmap_unlock.

 "While the fix is correct, I'm not sure if it actually is a real bug.
  Is there any architecture that would do something else than unlocking
  the underlying page? If it's just the underlying page then it should
  be always the same page, so no bug"

<title>mm: provide a saner PTE walking API for modules</title>

commit 9fd6dad1261a541b3f5fa7dc5b152222306e6702 upstream.

Currently, the follow_pfn function is exported for modules but
follow_pte is not.  However, follow_pfn is very easy to misuse,
because it does not provide protections (so most of its callers
assume the page is writable!) and because it returns after having
already unlocked the page table lock.

Provide instead a simplified version of follow_pte that does
not have the pmdpp and range arguments.  The older version
survives as follow_invalidate_pte() for use by fs/dax.c.

commit ff5c19ed4b087073cea38ff0edc80c23d7256943 upstream.

Merge __follow_pte_pmd, follow_pte_pmd and follow_pte into a single
follow_pte function and just pass two additional NULL arguments for the
two previous follow_pte callers.
