kernel/fork: Initialize mm's PASID

2022-02-14T18:51:47+00:00

A new mm doesn't have a PASID yet when it's created. Initialize
the mm's PASID on fork() or for init_mm to INVALID_IOASID (-1).

INIT_PASID (0) is reserved for kernel legacy DMA PASID. It cannot be
allocated to a user process. Initializing the process's PASID to 0 may
cause confusion that's why the process uses the reserved kernel legacy
DMA PASID. Initializing the PASID to INVALID_IOASID (-1) explicitly
tells the process doesn't have a valid PASID yet.

Even though the only user of mm_pasid_init() is in fork.c, define it in
 as the first of three mm/pasid life cycle functions
(init/set/drop) to keep these all together.

mm/gup: prevent gup_fast from racing with COW during fork

2020-12-15T20:13:39+00:00

Since commit 70e806e4e645 ("mm: Do early cow for pinned pages during
fork() for ptes") pages under a FOLL_PIN will not be write protected
during COW for fork.  This means that pages returned from
pin_user_pages(FOLL_WRITE) should not become write protected while the pin
is active.

However, there is a small race where get_user_pages_fast(FOLL_PIN) can
establish a FOLL_PIN at the same time copy_present_page() is write
protecting it:

        CPU 0                             CPU 1
   get_user_pages_fast()
    internal_get_user_pages_fast()
                                       copy_page_range()
                                         pte_alloc_map_lock()
                                           copy_present_page()
                                             atomic_read(has_pinned) == 0
					     page_maybe_dma_pinned() == false
     atomic_set(has_pinned, 1);
     gup_pgd_range()
      gup_pte_range()
       pte_t pte = gup_get_pte(ptep)
       pte_access_permitted(pte)
       try_grab_compound_head()
                                             pte = pte_wrprotect(pte)
	                                     set_pte_at();
                                         pte_unmap_unlock()
      // GUP now returns with a write protected page

The first attempt to resolve this by using the write protect caused
problems (and was missing a barrrier), see commit f3c64eda3e50 ("mm: avoid
early COW write protect games during fork()")

Instead wrap copy_p4d_range() with the write side of a seqcount and check
the read side around gup_pgd_range().  If there is a collision then
get_user_pages_fast() fails and falls back to slow GUP.

Slow GUP is safe against this race because copy_page_range() is only
called while holding the exclusive side of the mmap_lock on the src
mm_struct.

Replace open-coded bitmap array initialization of init_mm.cpu_bitmask with
neat CPU_BITS_NONE macro.

And, since init_mm.cpu_bitmask is statically set to zero, there is no way
to clear it again in start_kernel().

mm: Allocate the mm_cpumask (mm->cpu_bitmap[]) dynamically based on nr_cpu_ids

2018-07-17T07:35:30+00:00

The mm_struct always contains a cpumask bitmap, regardless of
CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK. That means the first step can be to
simplify things, and simply have one bitmask at the end of the
mm_struct for the mm_cpumask.

This does necessitate moving everything else in mm_struct into
an anonymous sub-structure, which can be randomized when struct
randomization is enabled.

The second step is to determine the correct size for the
mm_struct slab object from the size of the mm_struct
(excluding the CPU bitmap) and the size the cpumask.

For init_mm we can simply allocate the maximum size this
kernel is compiled for, since we only have one init_mm
in the system, anyway.

Pointer magic by Mike Galbraith, to evade -Wstringop-overflow
getting confused by the dynamically sized array.

mm: introduce arg_lock to protect arg_start|end and env_start|end in mm_struct

2018-06-08T00:34:34+00:00

mmap_sem is on the hot path of kernel, and it very contended, but it is
abused too.  It is used to protect arg_start|end and evn_start|end when
reading /proc/$PID/cmdline and /proc/$PID/environ, but it doesn't make
sense since those proc files just expect to read 4 values atomically and
not related to VM, they could be set to arbitrary values by C/R.

And, the mmap_sem contention may cause unexpected issue like below:

INFO: task ps:14018 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
       Tainted: G            E 4.9.79-009.ali3000.alios7.x86_64 #1

message.

   entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x1a/0xc5

Both Alexey Dobriyan and Michal Hocko suggested to use dedicated lock
for them to mitigate the abuse of mmap_sem.

So, introduce a new spinlock in mm_struct to protect the concurrent
access to arg_start|end, env_start|end and others, as well as replace
write map_sem to read to protect the race condition between prctl and
sys_brk which might break check_data_rlimit(), and makes prctl more
friendly to other VM operations.

This patch just eliminates the abuse of mmap_sem, but it can't resolve
the above hung task warning completely since the later
access_remote_vm() call needs acquire mmap_sem.  The mmap_sem
scalability issue will be solved in the future.
