commit 0bdf0efa180a9cb1361cbded4e2260a49306ac89 upstream.

Before storing a page, zswap first checks if the number of stored pages
exceeds the limit specified by memory.zswap.max, for each cgroup in the
hierarchy.  If this limit is reached or exceeded, then zswap shrinking is
triggered and short-circuits the store attempt.

However, since the zswap's LRU is not memcg-aware, this can create the
following pathological behavior: the cgroup whose zswap limit is 0 will
evict pages from other cgroups continually, without lowering its own zswap
usage.  This means the shrinking will continue until the need for swap
ceases or the pool becomes empty.

As a result of this, we observe a disproportionate amount of zswap
writeback and a perpetually small zswap pool in our experiments, even
though the pool limit is never hit.

More generally, a cgroup might unnecessarily evict pages from other
cgroups before we drive the memcg back below its limit.

This patch fixes the issue by rejecting zswap store attempt without
shrinking the pool when obj_cgroup_may_zswap() returns false.

commit 44d0fb387b53e56c8a050bac5c7d460e21eb226f upstream.

The current uses of PageAnon in page table check functions can lead to
type confusion bugs between struct page and slab [1], if slab pages are
accidentally mapped into the user space. This is because slab reuses the
bits in struct page to store its internal states, which renders PageAnon
ineffective on slab pages.

Since slab pages are not expected to be mapped into the user space, this
patch adds BUG_ON(PageSlab(page)) checks to make sure that slab pages
are not inadvertently mapped. Otherwise, there must be some bugs in the
kernel.

<title>mm: page_table_check: Make it dependent on EXCLUSIVE_SYSTEM_RAM</title>

commit 81a31a860bb61d54eb688af2568d9332ed9b8942 upstream.

Without EXCLUSIVE_SYSTEM_RAM, users are allowed to map arbitrary
physical memory regions into the userspace via /dev/mem. At the same
time, pages may change their properties (e.g., from anonymous pages to
named pages) while they are still being mapped in the userspace, leading
to "corruption" detected by the page table check.

To avoid these false positives, this patch makes PAGE_TABLE_CHECK
depends on EXCLUSIVE_SYSTEM_RAM. This dependency is understandable
because PAGE_TABLE_CHECK is a hardening technique but /dev/mem without
STRICT_DEVMEM (i.e., !EXCLUSIVE_SYSTEM_RAM) is itself a security
problem.

Even with EXCLUSIVE_SYSTEM_RAM, I/O pages may be still allowed to be
mapped via /dev/mem. However, these pages are always considered as named
pages, so they won't break the logic used in the page table check.

<title>mm: fix zswap writeback race condition</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 04fc7816089c5a32c29a04ec94b998e219dfb946 upstream.

The zswap writeback mechanism can cause a race condition resulting in
memory corruption, where a swapped out page gets swapped in with data that
was written to a different page.

The race unfolds like this:
1. a page with data A and swap offset X is stored in zswap
2. page A is removed off the LRU by zpool driver for writeback in
   zswap-shrink work, data for A is mapped by zpool driver
3. user space program faults and invalidates page entry A, offset X is
   considered free
4. kswapd stores page B at offset X in zswap (zswap could also be
   full, if so, page B would then be IOed to X, then skip step 5.)
5. entry A is replaced by B in tree-&gt;rbroot, this doesn't affect the
   local reference held by zswap-shrink work
6. zswap-shrink work writes back A at X, and frees zswap entry A
7. swapin of slot X brings A in memory instead of B

The fix:
Once the swap page cache has been allocated (case ZSWAP_SWAPCACHE_NEW),
zswap-shrink work just checks that the local zswap_entry reference is
still the same as the one in the tree.  If it's not the same it means that
it's either been invalidated or replaced, in both cases the writeback is
aborted because the local entry contains stale data.

Reproducer:
I originally found this by running `stress` overnight to validate my work
on the zswap writeback mechanism, it manifested after hours on my test
machine.  The key to make it happen is having zswap writebacks, so
whatever setup pumps /sys/kernel/debug/zswap/written_back_pages should do
the trick.

In order to reproduce this faster on a vm, I setup a system with ~100M of
available memory and a 500M swap file, then running `stress --vm 1
--vm-bytes 300000000 --vm-stride 4000` makes it happen in matter of tens
of minutes.  One can speed things up even more by swinging
/sys/module/zswap/parameters/max_pool_percent up and down between, say, 20
and 1; this makes it reproduce in tens of seconds.  It's crucial to set
`--vm-stride` to something other than 4096 otherwise `stress` won't
realize that memory has been corrupted because all pages would have the
same data.

<title>mm/mempolicy: correctly update prev when policy is equal on mbind</title>

commit 00ca0f2e86bf40b016a646e6323a8941a09cf106 upstream.

The refactoring in commit f4e9e0e69468 ("mm/mempolicy: fix use-after-free
of VMA iterator") introduces a subtle bug which arises when attempting to
apply a new NUMA policy across a range of VMAs in mbind_range().

The refactoring passes a **prev pointer to keep track of the previous VMA
in order to reduce duplication, and in all but one case it keeps this
correctly updated.

The bug arises when a VMA within the specified range has an equivalent
policy as determined by mpol_equal() - which unlike other cases, does not
update prev.

This can result in a situation where, later in the iteration, a VMA is
found whose policy does need to change.  At this point, vma_merge() is
invoked with prev pointing to a VMA which is before the previous VMA.

Since vma_merge() discovers the curr VMA by looking for the one
immediately after prev, it will now be in a situation where this VMA is
incorrect and the merge will not proceed correctly.

This is checked in the VM_WARN_ON() invariant case with end &gt;
curr-&gt;vm_end, which, if a merge is possible, results in a warning (if
CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is specified).

I note that vma_merge() performs these invariant checks only after
merge_prev/merge_next are checked, which is debatable as it hides this
issue if no merge is possible even though a buggy situation has arisen.

The solution is simply to update the prev pointer even when policies are
equal.

This caused a bug to arise in the 6.2.y stable tree, and this patch
resolves this bug.

commit 29083fd84da576bfb3563d044f98d38e6b338f00 upstream.

When booting with 'kasan.vmalloc=off', a kernel configured with support
for KASAN_HW_TAGS will explode at boot time due to bogus use of
virt_to_page() on a vmalloc adddress.  With CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL selected
this will be reported explicitly, and with or without CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL
the kernel will dereference a bogus address:

This is because init_vmalloc_pages() erroneously calls virt_to_page() on
a vmalloc address, while virt_to_page() is only valid for addresses in
the linear/direct map. Since init_vmalloc_pages() expects virtual
addresses in the vmalloc range, it must use vmalloc_to_page() rather
than virt_to_page().

We call init_vmalloc_pages() from __kasan_unpoison_vmalloc(), where we
check !is_vmalloc_or_module_addr(), suggesting that we might encounter a
non-vmalloc address. Luckily, this never happens. By design, we only
call __kasan_unpoison_vmalloc() on pointers in the vmalloc area, and I
have verified that we don't violate that expectation. Given that,
is_vmalloc_or_module_addr() must always be true for any legitimate
argument to __kasan_unpoison_vmalloc().

Correct init_vmalloc_pages() to use vmalloc_to_page(), and remove the
redundant and misleading use of is_vmalloc_or_module_addr() in
__kasan_unpoison_vmalloc().

commit d824ec2a154677f63c56cc71ffe4578274f6e32e upstream.

If the page is pinned, there's no point in trying to reclaim it.
Furthermore if the page is from the page cache we don't want to reclaim
fs-private data from the page because the pinning process may be writing
to the page at any time and reclaiming fs private info on a dirty page can
upset the filesystem (see link below).

<title>mm/mempolicy: fix use-after-free of VMA iterator</title>

<content type='text'>
commit f4e9e0e69468583c2c6d9d5c7bfc975e292bf188 upstream.

set_mempolicy_home_node() iterates over a list of VMAs and calls
mbind_range() on each VMA, which also iterates over the singular list of
the VMA passed in and potentially splits the VMA.  Since the VMA iterator
is not passed through, set_mempolicy_home_node() may now point to a stale
node in the VMA tree.  This can result in a UAF as reported by syzbot.

Avoid the stale maple tree node by passing the VMA iterator through to the
underlying call to split_vma().

mbind_range() is also overly complicated, since there are two calling
functions and one already handles iterating over the VMAs.  Simplify
mbind_range() to only handle merging and splitting of the VMAs.

Align the new loop in do_mbind() and existing loop in
set_mempolicy_home_node() to use the reduced mbind_range() function.  This
allows for a single location of the range calculation and avoids
constantly looking up the previous VMA (since this is a loop over the
VMAs).

commit f4e9e0e69468583c2c6d9d5c7bfc975e292bf188 upstream.

set_mempolicy_home_node() iterates over a list of VMAs and calls
mbind_range() on each VMA, which also iterates over the singular list of
the VMA passed in and potentially splits the VMA.  Since the VMA iterator
is not passed through, set_mempolicy_home_node() may now point to a stale
node in the VMA tree.  This can result in a UAF as reported by syzbot.

Avoid the stale maple tree node by passing the VMA iterator through to the
underlying call to split_vma().

mbind_range() is also overly complicated, since there are two calling
functions and one already handles iterating over the VMAs.  Simplify
mbind_range() to only handle merging and splitting of the VMAs.

Align the new loop in do_mbind() and existing loop in
set_mempolicy_home_node() to use the reduced mbind_range() function.  This
allows for a single location of the range calculation and avoids
constantly looking up the previous VMA (since this is a loop over the
VMAs).

commit 1007843a91909a4995ee78a538f62d8665705b66 upstream.

syzbot is reporting circular locking dependency which involves
zonelist_update_seq seqlock [1], for this lock is checked by memory
allocation requests which do not need to be retried.

One deadlock scenario is kmalloc(GFP_ATOMIC) from an interrupt handler.

  CPU0
  ----
  __build_all_zonelists() {
    write_seqlock(&amp;zonelist_update_seq); // makes zonelist_update_seq.seqcount odd
    // e.g. timer interrupt handler runs at this moment
      some_timer_func() {
        kmalloc(GFP_ATOMIC) {
          __alloc_pages_slowpath() {
            read_seqbegin(&amp;zonelist_update_seq) {
              // spins forever because zonelist_update_seq.seqcount is odd
            }
          }
        }
      }
    // e.g. timer interrupt handler finishes
    write_sequnlock(&amp;zonelist_update_seq); // makes zonelist_update_seq.seqcount even
  }

This deadlock scenario can be easily eliminated by not calling
read_seqbegin(&amp;zonelist_update_seq) from !__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM allocation
requests, for retry is applicable to only __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM allocation
requests.  But Michal Hocko does not know whether we should go with this
approach.

Another deadlock scenario which syzbot is reporting is a race between
kmalloc(GFP_ATOMIC) from tty_insert_flip_string_and_push_buffer() with
port-&gt;lock held and printk() from __build_all_zonelists() with
zonelist_update_seq held.

This deadlock scenario can be eliminated by

  preventing interrupt context from calling kmalloc(GFP_ATOMIC)

and

  preventing printk() from calling console_flush_all()

while zonelist_update_seq.seqcount is odd.

Since Petr Mladek thinks that __build_all_zonelists() can become a

  disabling local interrupts in order to avoid kmalloc(GFP_ATOMIC)

and

  disabling synchronous printk() in order to avoid console_flush_all()

.

As a side effect of minimizing duration of zonelist_update_seq.seqcount
being odd by disabling synchronous printk(), latency at
read_seqbegin(&amp;zonelist_update_seq) for both !__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM and
__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM allocation requests will be reduced.  Although, from
lockdep perspective, not calling read_seqbegin(&amp;zonelist_update_seq) (i.e.
do not record unnecessary locking dependency) from interrupt context is
still preferable, even if we don't allow calling kmalloc(GFP_ATOMIC)
inside

commit 58c5d0d6d522112577c7eeb71d382ea642ed7be4 upstream.

The maple tree limits the gap returned to a window that specifically fits
what was asked.  This may not be optimal in the case of switching search
directions or a gap that does not satisfy the requested space for other
reasons.  Fix the search by retrying the operation and limiting the search
window in the rare occasion that a conflict occurs.
