commit f347454d034184b4f0a2caf6e14daf7848cea01c upstream.

hugetlb does not support fake write-faults (write faults without write
permissions).  However, we are currently able to trigger a
FAULT_FLAG_WRITE fault on a VMA without VM_WRITE.

If we'd ever want to support FOLL_FORCE|FOLL_WRITE, we'd have to teach
hugetlb to:

(1) Leave the page mapped R/O after the fake write-fault, like
    maybe_mkwrite() does.
(2) Allow writing to an exclusive anon page that's mapped R/O when
    FOLL_FORCE is set, like can_follow_write_pte(). E.g.,
    __follow_hugetlb_must_fault() needs adjustment.

For now, it's not clear if that added complexity is really required.
History tolds us that FOLL_FORCE is dangerous and that we better limit its
use to a bare minimum.

          if (map == MAP_FAILED) {
                  fprintf(stderr, "mmap() failed: %d\n", errno);
                  return 1;
          }

          mem_fd = open("/proc/self/mem", O_RDWR);
          if (mem_fd &lt; 0) {
                  fprintf(stderr, "open(/proc/self/mem) failed: %d\n", errno);
                  return 1;
          }

          if (pwrite(mem_fd, "0", 1, (uintptr_t) map) == 1) {
                  fprintf(stderr, "write() succeeded, which is unexpected\n");
                  return 1;

          printf("write() failed as expected: %d\n", errno);
          return 0;
  }

Fortunately, we have a sanity check in hugetlb_wp() in place ever since
commit 1d8d14641fd9 ("mm/hugetlb: support write-faults in shared
mappings"), that bails out instead of silently mapping a page writable in
a !PROT_WRITE VMA.

Consequently, above reproducer triggers a warning, similar to the one
reported by szsbot:

So let's silence that warning by teaching GUP code that FOLL_FORCE -- so
far -- does not apply to hugetlb.

Note that FOLL_FORCE for read-access seems to be working as expected.  The
assumption is that this has been broken forever, only ever since above
commit, we actually detect the wrong handling and WARN_ON_ONCE().

I assume this has been broken at least since 2014, when mm/gup.c came to
life.  I failed to come up with a suitable Fixes tag quickly.

memcg_write_event_control() accesses the dentry-&gt;d_name of the specified
control fd to route the write call.  As a cgroup interface file can't be
renamed, it's safe to access d_name as long as the specified file is a
regular cgroup file.  Also, as these cgroup interface files can't be
removed before the directory, it's safe to access the parent too.

Prior to 347c4a874710 ("memcg: remove cgroup_event-&gt;cft"), there was a
call to __file_cft() which verified that the specified file is a regular
cgroupfs file before further accesses.  The cftype pointer returned from
__file_cft() was no longer necessary and the commit inadvertently dropped
the file type check with it allowing any file to slip through.  With the
invarients broken, the d_name and parent accesses can now race against
renames and removals of arbitrary files and cause use-after-free's.

Fix the bug by resurrecting the file type check in __file_cft().  Now that
cgroupfs is implemented through kernfs, checking the file operations needs
to go through a layer of indirection.  Instead, let's check the superblock
and dentry type.

cgroupfs file before further accesses.  The cftype pointer returned from
__file_cft() was no longer necessary and the commit inadvertently dropped
the file type check with it allowing any file to slip through.  With the
invarients broken, the d_name and parent accesses can now race against
renames and removals of arbitrary files and cause use-after-free's.

Fix the bug by resurrecting the file type check in __file_cft().  Now that
cgroupfs is implemented through kernfs, checking the file operations needs
to go through a layer of indirection.  Instead, let's check the superblock
and dentry type.

<title>mm/gup: fix gup_pud_range() for dax</title>

<content type='text'>
For dax pud, pud_huge() returns true on x86. So the function works as long
as hugetlb is configured. However, dax doesn't depend on hugetlb.
Commit 414fd080d125 ("mm/gup: fix gup_pmd_range() for dax") fixed
devmap-backed huge PMDs, but missed devmap-backed huge PUDs. Fix this as
well.

This fixes the below kernel panic:

<title>mmap: fix do_brk_flags() modifying obviously incorrect VMAs</title>

<id>6c28ca6485ddd7c5da171e479e3ebfbe661efc4d</id>
<content type='text'>
Add more sanity checks to the VMA that do_brk_flags() will expand.  Ensure
the VMA matches basic merge requirements within the function before
calling can_vma_merge_after().

Drop the duplicate checks from vm_brk_flags() since they will be enforced
later.

The old code would expand file VMAs on brk(), which is functionally
wrong and also dangerous in terms of locking because the brk() path
isn't designed for file VMAs and therefore doesn't lock the file
mapping.  Checking can_vma_merge_after() ensures that new anonymous
VMAs can't be merged into file VMAs.

<title>tmpfs: fix data loss from failed fallocate</title>

<id>44bcabd70cf1425b4243e02251c02b01638a8287</id>
<content type='text'>
Fix tmpfs data loss when the fallocate system call is interrupted by a
signal, or fails for some other reason.  The partial folio handling in
shmem_undo_range() forgot to consider this unfalloc case, and was liable
to erase or truncate out data which had already been committed earlier.

It turns out that none of the partial folio handling there is appropriate
for the unfalloc case, which just wants to proceed to removal of whole
folios: which find_get_entries() provides, even when partially covered.

Original patch by Rui Wang.

<title>mm: do not BUG_ON missing brk mapping, because userspace can unmap it</title>

<id>f5ad5083404bb56c9de777dccb68c6672ef6487e</id>
<content type='text'>
The following program will trigger the BUG_ON that this patch removes,
because the user can munmap() mm-&gt;brk:

  #include &lt;sys/syscall.h&gt;
  #include &lt;sys/mman.h&gt;
  #include &lt;assert.h&gt;
  #include &lt;unistd.h&gt;

  static void *brk_now(void)
  {
    return (void *)syscall(SYS_brk, 0);
  }

  static void brk_set(void *b)
  {
    assert(syscall(SYS_brk, b) != -1);
  }

  int main(int argc, char *argv[])
  {
    void *b = brk_now();
    brk_set(b + 4096);
    assert(munmap(b - 4096, 4096 * 2) == 0);
    brk_set(b);
    return 0;
  }

Compile that with musl, since glibc actually uses brk(), and then
execute it, and it'll hit this splat:

Instead, just return the old brk value if the original mapping has been
removed.

    assert(munmap(b - 4096, 4096 * 2) == 0);
    brk_set(b);
    return 0;
  }

Compile that with musl, since glibc actually uses brk(), and then
execute it, and it'll hit this splat:

Instead, just return the old brk value if the original mapping has been
removed.

<title>memcg: Fix possible use-after-free in memcg_write_event_control()</title>

<id>fbf8321238bac04368f57af572e05a9c01347a0b</id>
<content type='text'>
memcg_write_event_control() accesses the dentry-&gt;d_name of the specified
control fd to route the write call.  As a cgroup interface file can't be
renamed, it's safe to access d_name as long as the specified file is a
regular cgroup file.  Also, as these cgroup interface files can't be
removed before the directory, it's safe to access the parent too.

Prior to 347c4a874710 ("memcg: remove cgroup_event-&gt;cft"), there was a
call to __file_cft() which verified that the specified file is a regular
cgroupfs file before further accesses.  The cftype pointer returned from
__file_cft() was no longer necessary and the commit inadvertently
dropped the file type check with it allowing any file to slip through.
With the invarients broken, the d_name and parent accesses can now race
against renames and removals of arbitrary files and cause
use-after-free's.

Fix the bug by resurrecting the file type check in __file_cft().  Now
that cgroupfs is implemented through kernfs, checking the file
operations needs to go through a layer of indirection.  Instead, let's
check the superblock and dentry type.

This reverts commit f35b5d7d676e59e401690b678cd3cfec5e785c23.

It has been reported to cause huge performance regressions on some loads
(will-it-scale.per_process_ops, but also building the kernel with
clang).

The commit did speed up gcc builds by a small amount, so it's not an
unambiguous regression, but until the big regressions are understood,
let's revert it.
