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>

<content type='text'>
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.

<title>mm: introduce page_needs_cow_for_dma() for deciding whether cow</title>

We've got quite a few places (pte, pmd, pud) that explicitly checked
against whether we should break the cow right now during fork().  It's
easier to provide a helper, especially before we work the same thing on
hugetlbfs.

Since we'll reference is_cow_mapping() in mm.h, move it there too.
Actually it suites mm.h more since internal.h is mm/ only, but mm.h is
exported to the whole kernel.  With that we should expect another patch to
use is_cow_mapping() whenever we can across the kernel since we do use it
quite a lot but it's always done with raw code against VM_* flags.

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.

If all pte entry is none in 'non-create' case, we would break the loop with
pte unchanged.  Then the wrong pte - 1 would be passed to pte_unmap_unlock.
This is a theoretical issue which may not be a real bug. So it's not worth
cc stable.

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "x86:

   - Support for userspace to emulate Xen hypercalls

   - Raise the maximum number of user memslots

   - Scalability improvements for the new MMU.

     Instead of the complex "fast page fault" logic that is used in
     mmu.c, tdp_mmu.c uses an rwlock so that page faults are concurrent,
     but the code that can run against page faults is limited. Right now
     only page faults take the lock for reading; in the future this will
     be extended to some cases of page table destruction. I hope to
     switch the default MMU around 5.12-rc3 (some testing was delayed
     due to Chinese New Year).

   - Cleanups for MAXPHYADDR checks

   - Use static calls for vendor-specific callbacks

   - On AMD, use VMLOAD/VMSAVE to save and restore host state

   - Stop using deprecated jump label APIs

   - Workaround for AMD erratum that made nested virtualization
     unreliable

   - Support for LBR emulation in the guest

   - Support for communicating bus lock vmexits to userspace

   - Add support for SEV attestation command

   - Miscellaneous cleanups

  PPC:

   - Support for second data watchpoint on POWER10

   - Remove some complex workarounds for buggy early versions of POWER9

   - Guest entry/exit fixes

  ARM64:

   - Make the nVHE EL2 object relocatable

   - Cleanups for concurrent translation faults hitting the same page

   - Support for the standard TRNG hypervisor call

   - A bunch of small PMU/Debug fixes

   - Simplification of the early init hypercall handling

  Non-KVM changes (with acks):

   - Detection of contended rwlocks (implemented only for qrwlocks,
     because KVM only needs it for x86)

   - Allow __DISABLE_EXPORTS from assembly code

   - Provide a saner follow_pfn replacements for modules"

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:

 - vDSO build improvements including support for building with BSD.

 - Cleanup to the AMU support code and initialisation rework to support
   cpufreq drivers built as modules.

 - Removal of synthetic frame record from exception stack when entering
   the kernel from EL0.

 - Add support for the TRNG firmware call introduced by Arm spec
   DEN0098.

 - Cleanup and refactoring across the board.

 - Avoid calling arch_get_random_seed_long() from
   add_interrupt_randomness()

 - Perf and PMU updates including support for Cortex-A78 and the v8.3
   SPE extensions.

 - Significant steps along the road to leaving the MMU enabled during
   kexec relocation.

 - Faultaround changes to initialise prefaulted PTEs as 'old' when
   hardware access-flag updates are supported, which drastically
   improves vmscan performance.

 - CPU errata updates for Cortex-A76 (#1463225) and Cortex-A55
   (#1024718)

 - Preparatory work for yielding the vector unit at a finer granularity
   in the crypto code, which in turn will one day allow us to defer
   softirq processing when it is in use.

 - Support for overriding CPU ID register fields on the command-line.

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:

 - vDSO build improvements including support for building with BSD.

 - Cleanup to the AMU support code and initialisation rework to support
   cpufreq drivers built as modules.

 - Removal of synthetic frame record from exception stack when entering
   the kernel from EL0.

 - Add support for the TRNG firmware call introduced by Arm spec
   DEN0098.

 - Cleanup and refactoring across the board.

 - Avoid calling arch_get_random_seed_long() from
   add_interrupt_randomness()

 - Perf and PMU updates including support for Cortex-A78 and the v8.3
   SPE extensions.

 - Significant steps along the road to leaving the MMU enabled during
   kexec relocation.

 - Faultaround changes to initialise prefaulted PTEs as 'old' when
   hardware access-flag updates are supported, which drastically
   improves vmscan performance.

 - CPU errata updates for Cortex-A76 (#1463225) and Cortex-A55
   (#1024718)

 - Preparatory work for yielding the vector unit at a finer granularity
   in the crypto code, which in turn will one day allow us to defer
   softirq processing when it is in use.

 - Support for overriding CPU ID register fields on the command-line.
