Dmitry Vyukov has reported[1] possible deadlock (triggered by his
syzkaller fuzzer):
Possible unsafe locking scenario:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
lock(&hugetlbfs_i_mmap_rwsem_key);
lock(&mapping->i_mmap_rwsem);
lock(&hugetlbfs_i_mmap_rwsem_key);
lock(&mapping->i_mmap_rwsem);
Both traces points to mm_take_all_locks() as a source of the problem.
It doesn't take care about ordering or hugetlbfs_i_mmap_rwsem_key (aka
mapping->i_mmap_rwsem for hugetlb mapping) vs. i_mmap_rwsem.
huge_pmd_share() does memory allocation under hugetlbfs_i_mmap_rwsem_key
and allocator can take i_mmap_rwsem if it hit reclaim. So we need to
take i_mmap_rwsem from all hugetlb VMAs before taking i_mmap_rwsem from
rest of VMAs.
The patch also documents locking order for hugetlbfs_i_mmap_rwsem_key.

When inspecting a vague code inside prctl(PR_SET_MM_MEM) call (which
testing the RLIMIT_DATA value to figure out if we're allowed to assign
new @start_brk, @brk, @start_data, @end_data from mm_struct) it's been
commited that RLIMIT_DATA in a form it's implemented now doesn't do
anything useful because most of user-space libraries use mmap() syscall
for dynamic memory allocations.
Linus suggested to convert RLIMIT_DATA rlimit into something suitable
for anonymous memory accounting. But in this patch we go further, and
the changes are bundled together as:
* keep vma counting if CONFIG_PROC_FS=n, will be used for limits
* replace mm->shared_vm with better defined mm->data_vm
* account anonymous executable areas as executable
* account file-backed growsdown/up areas as stack
* drop struct file* argument from vm_stat_account
* enforce RLIMIT_DATA for size of data areas
This way code looks cleaner: now code/stack/data classification depends
only on vm_flags state:
VM_EXEC & ~VM_WRITE -> code (VmExe + VmLib in proc)
VM_GROWSUP | VM_GROWSDOWN -> stack (VmStk)
VM_WRITE & ~VM_SHARED & !stack -> data (VmData)
The rest (VmSize - VmData - VmStk - VmExe - VmLib) could be called
"shared", but that might be strange beast like readonly-private or VM_IO
area.
- RLIMIT_AS limits whole address space "VmSize"
- RLIMIT_STACK limits stack "VmStk" (but each vma individually)
- RLIMIT_DATA now limits "VmData"

Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) provides a barrier to
exploitation of user-space processes in the presence of security
vulnerabilities by making it more difficult to find desired code/data
which could help an attack. This is done by adding a random offset to
the location of regions in the process address space, with a greater
range of potential offset values corresponding to better protection/a
larger search-space for brute force, but also to greater potential for
fragmentation.
The offset added to the mmap_base address, which provides the basis for
the majority of the mappings for a process, is set once on process exec
in arch_pick_mmap_layout() and is done via hard-coded per-arch values,
which reflect, hopefully, the best compromise for all systems. The
trade-off between increased entropy in the offset value generation and
the corresponding increased variability in address space fragmentation
is not absolute, however, and some platforms may tolerate higher amounts
of entropy. This patch introduces both new Kconfig values and a sysctl
interface which may be used to change the amount of entropy used for
offset generation on a system.
The direct motivation for this change was in response to the
libstagefright vulnerabilities that affected Android, specifically to
information provided by Google's project zero at:
http://googleprojectzero.blogspot.com/2015/09/stagefrightened.html
The attack presented therein, by Google's project zero, specifically
targeted the limited randomness used to generate the offset added to the
mmap_base address in order to craft a brute-force-based attack.
Concretely, the attack was against the mediaserver process, which was
limited to respawning every 5 seconds, on an arm device. The hard-coded
8 bits used resulted in an average expected success rate of defeating
the mmap ASLR after just over 10 minutes (128 tries at 5 seconds a
piece). With this patch, and an accompanying increase in the entropy
value to 16 bits, the same attack would take an average expected time of
over 45 hours (32768 tries), which makes it both less feasible and more
likely to be noticed.
The introduced Kconfig and sysctl options are limited by per-arch
minimum and maximum values, the minimum of which was chosen to match the
current hard-coded value and the maximum of which was chosen so as to
give the greatest flexibility without generating an invalid mmap_base
address, generally a 3-4 bits less than the number of bits in the
user-space accessible virtual address space.
When decided whether or not to change the default value, a system
developer should consider that mmap_base address could be placed
anywhere up to 2^(value) bits away from the non-randomized location,
which would introduce variable-sized areas above and below the mmap_base
address such that the maximum vm_area_struct size may be reduced,
preventing very large allocations.
This patch (of 4):
ASLR only uses as few as 8 bits to generate the random offset for the
mmap base address on 32 bit architectures. This value was chosen to
prevent a poorly chosen value from dividing the address space in such a
way as to prevent large allocations. This may not be an issue on all
platforms. Allow the specification of a minimum number of bits so that
platforms desiring greater ASLR protection may determine where to place
the trade-off.

The following flag comparison in mmap_region makes no sense:
if (!(vm_flags & MAP_FIXED))
return -ENOMEM;
The condition is always false and thus the above "return -ENOMEM" is
never executed. The vm_flags must not be compared with MAP_FIXED flag.
The vm_flags may only be compared with VM_* flags. MAP_FIXED has the
same value as VM_MAYREAD.
Hitting the rlimit is a slow path and find_vma_intersection should
realize that there is no overlapping VMA for !MAP_FIXED case pretty
quickly.

The cost of faulting in all memory to be locked can be very high when
working with large mappings. If only portions of the mapping will be used
this can incur a high penalty for locking.
For the example of a large file, this is the usage pattern for a large
statical language model (probably applies to other statical or graphical
models as well). For the security example, any application transacting in
data that cannot be swapped out (credit card data, medical records, etc).
This patch introduces the ability to request that pages are not
pre-faulted, but are placed on the unevictable LRU when they are finally
faulted in. The VM_LOCKONFAULT flag will be used together with VM_LOCKED
and has no effect when set without VM_LOCKED. Setting the VM_LOCKONFAULT
flag for a VMA will cause pages faulted into that VMA to be added to the
unevictable LRU when they are faulted or if they are already present, but
will not cause any missing pages to be faulted in.
Exposing this new lock state means that we cannot overload the meaning of
the FOLL_POPULATE flag any longer. Prior to this patch it was used to
mean that the VMA for a fault was locked. This means we need the new
FOLL_MLOCK flag to communicate the locked state of a VMA. FOLL_POPULATE
will now only control if the VMA should be populated and in the case of
VM_LOCKONFAULT, it will not be set.

For VM_PFNMAP and VM_MIXEDMAP we use vm_ops->pfn_mkwrite instead of
vm_ops->page_mkwrite to notify abort write access. This means we want
vma->vm_page_prot to be write-protected if the VMA provides this vm_ops.
A theoretical scenario that will cause these missed events is:
On writable mapping with vm_ops->pfn_mkwrite, but without
vm_ops->page_mkwrite: read fault followed by write access to the pfn.
Writable pte will be set up on read fault and write fault will not be
generated.
I found it examining Dave's complaint on generic/080:

We rely on vma->vm_ops == NULL to detect anonymous VMA: see
vma_is_anonymous(), but some drivers doesn't set ->vm_ops.
As a result we can end up with anonymous page in private file mapping.
That should not lead to serious misbehaviour, but nevertheless is wrong.
Let's fix by setting up dummy ->vm_ops for file mmapping if f_op->mmap()
didn't set its own.
The patch also adds sanity check into __vma_link_rb(). It will help
catch broken VMAs which inserted directly into mm_struct via
insert_vm_struct().

Add the additional "vm_flags_t vm_flags" argument to do_mmap_pgoff(),
rename it to do_mmap(), and re-introduce do_mmap_pgoff() as a simple
wrapper on top of do_mmap(). Perhaps we should update the callers of
do_mmap_pgoff() and kill it later.
This way mpx_mmap() can simply call do_mmap(vm_flags => VM_MPX) and do not
play with vm internals.
After this change mmap_region() has a single user outside of mmap.c,
arch/tile/mm/elf.c:arch_setup_additional_pages(). It would be nice to
change arch/tile/ and unexport mmap_region().

printf("vdso pages differ: %d\n",
!!memcmp(vdso, vdso + PAGE_SIZE, PAGE_SIZE));
return 0;
}
Output:
vdso pages differ: 1
vdso pages differ: 0
This is because split_vma() correctly updates ->vm_pgoff, but the logic
in insert_vm_struct() and special_mapping_fault() is absolutely broken,
so the fault at vdso + PAGE_SIZE return the 1st page. The same happens
if you simply unmap the 1st page.
special_mapping_fault() does:
pgoff = vmf->pgoff - vma->vm_pgoff;
and this is _only_ correct if vma->vm_start mmaps the first page from
->vm_private_data array.
vdso or any other user of install_special_mapping() is not anonymous,
it has the "backing storage" even if it is just the array of pages.
So we actually need to make vm_pgoff work as an offset in this array.
Note: this also allows to fix another problem: currently gdb can't access
"[vvar]" memory because in this case special_mapping_fault() doesn't work.
Now that we can use ->vm_pgoff we can implement ->access() and fix this.

Today proc and sysfs do not contain any executable files. Several
applications today mount proc or sysfs without noexec and nosuid and
then depend on there being no exectuables files on proc or sysfs.
Having any executable files show on proc or sysfs would cause
a user space visible regression, and most likely security problems.
Therefore commit to never allowing executables on proc and sysfs by
adding a new flag to mark them as filesystems without executables and
enforce that flag.
Test the flag where MNT_NOEXEC is tested today, so that the only user
visible effect will be that exectuables will be treated as if the
execute bit is cleared.
The filesystems proc and sysfs do not currently incoporate any
executable files so this does not result in any user visible effects.
This makes it unnecessary to vet changes to proc and sysfs tightly for
adding exectuable files or changes to chattr that would modify
existing files, as no matter what the individual file say they will
not be treated as exectuable files by the vfs.
Not having to vet changes to closely is important as without this we
are only one proc_create call (or another goof up in the
implementation of notify_change) from having problematic executables
on proc. Those mistakes are all too easy to make and would create
a situation where there are security issues or the assumptions of
some program having to be broken (and cause userspace regressions).

__mlock_vma_pages_range() doesn't necessarily mlock pages. It depends on
vma flags. The same codepath is used for MAP_POPULATE.
Let's rename __mlock_vma_pages_range() to populate_vma_page_range().
This patch also drops mlock_vma_pages_range() references from
documentation. It has gone in cea10a19b7 ("mm: directly use
__mlock_vma_pages_range() in find_extend_vma()").

I have constantly stumbled upon "kernel BUG at mm/rmap.c:399!" after
upgrading to 3.19 and had no luck with 4.0-rc1 neither.
So, after looking into new logic introduced by commit 7a3ef208e6 ("mm:
prevent endless growth of anon_vma hierarchy"), I found chances are that
unlink_anon_vmas() is called without incrementing dst->anon_vma->degree
in anon_vma_clone() due to allocation failure. If dst->anon_vma is not
NULL in error path, its degree will be incorrectly decremented in
unlink_anon_vmas() and eventually underflow when exiting as a result of
another call to unlink_anon_vmas(). That's how "kernel BUG at
mm/rmap.c:399!" is triggered for me.
This patch fixes the underflow by dropping dst->anon_vma when allocation
fails. It's safe to do so regardless of original value of dst->anon_vma
because dst->anon_vma doesn't have valid meaning if anon_vma_clone()
fails. Besides, callers don't care dst->anon_vma in such case neither.
Also suggested by Michal Hocko, we can clean up vma_adjust() a bit as
anon_vma_clone() now does the work.

I noticed, that "allowed" can easily overflow by falling below 0,
because (total_vm / 32) can be larger than "allowed". The problem
occurs in OVERCOMMIT_NONE mode.
In this case, a huge allocation can success and overcommit the system
(despite OVERCOMMIT_NONE mode). All subsequent allocations will fall
(system-wide), so system become unusable.
The problem was masked out by commit c9b1d0981f
("mm: limit growth of 3% hardcoded other user reserve"),
but it's easy to reproduce it on older kernels:
1) set overcommit_memory sysctl to 2
2) mmap() large file multiple times (with VM_SHARED flag)
3) try to malloc() large amount of memory
It also can be reproduced on newer kernels, but miss-configured
sysctl_user_reserve_kbytes is required.
Fix this issue by switching to signed arithmetic here.

The problem is that we check nr_ptes/nr_pmds in exit_mmap() which happens
*before* pgd_free(). And if an arch does pte/pmd allocation in
pgd_alloc() and frees them in pgd_free() we see offset in counters by the
time of the checks.
We tried to workaround this by offsetting expected counter value according
to FIRST_USER_ADDRESS for both nr_pte and nr_pmd in exit_mmap(). But it
doesn't work in some cases:
1. ARM with LPAE enabled also has non-zero USER_PGTABLES_CEILING, but
upper addresses occupied with huge pmd entries, so the trick with
offsetting expected counter value will get really ugly: we will have
to apply it nr_pmds, but not nr_ptes.
2. Metag has non-zero FIRST_USER_ADDRESS, but doesn't do allocation
pte/pmd page tables allocation in pgd_alloc(), just setup a pgd entry
which is allocated at boot and shared accross all processes.
The proposal is to move the check to check_mm() which happens *after*
pgd_free() and do proper accounting during pgd_alloc() and pgd_free()
which would bring counters to zero if nothing leaked.

Dave noticed that unprivileged process can allocate significant amount of
memory -- >500 MiB on x86_64 -- and stay unnoticed by oom-killer and
memory cgroup. The trick is to allocate a lot of PMD page tables. Linux
kernel doesn't account PMD tables to the process, only PTE.
The use-cases below use few tricks to allocate a lot of PMD page tables
while keeping VmRSS and VmPTE low. oom_score for the process will be 0.
#include <errno.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <sys/prctl.h>
#define PUD_SIZE (1UL << 30)
#define PMD_SIZE (1UL << 21)
#define NR_PUD 130000
int main(void)
{
char *addr = NULL;
unsigned long i;
prctl(PR_SET_THP_DISABLE);
for (i = 0; i < NR_PUD ; i++) {
addr = mmap(addr + PUD_SIZE, PUD_SIZE, PROT_WRITE|PROT_READ,
MAP_ANONYMOUS|MAP_PRIVATE, -1, 0);
if (addr == MAP_FAILED) {
perror("mmap");
break;
}
*addr = 'x';
munmap(addr, PMD_SIZE);
mmap(addr, PMD_SIZE, PROT_WRITE|PROT_READ,
MAP_ANONYMOUS|MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED, -1, 0);
if (addr == MAP_FAILED)
perror("re-mmap"), exit(1);
}
printf("PID %d consumed %lu KiB in PMD page tables\n",
getpid(), i * 4096 >> 10);
return pause();
}
The patch addresses the issue by account PMD tables to the process the
same way we account PTE.
The main place where PMD tables is accounted is __pmd_alloc() and
free_pmd_range(). But there're few corner cases:
- HugeTLB can share PMD page tables. The patch handles by accounting
the table to all processes who share it.
- x86 PAE pre-allocates few PMD tables on fork.
- Architectures with FIRST_USER_ADDRESS > 0. We need to adjust sanity
check on exit(2).
Accounting only happens on configuration where PMD page table's level is
present (PMD is not folded). As with nr_ptes we use per-mm counter. The
counter value is used to calculate baseline for badness score by
oom-killer.

remap_file_pages(2) was invented to be able efficiently map parts of
huge file into limited 32-bit virtual address space such as in database
workloads.
Nonlinear mappings are pain to support and it seems there's no
legitimate use-cases nowadays since 64-bit systems are widely available.
Let's drop it and get rid of all these special-cased code.
The patch replaces the syscall with emulation which creates new VMA on
each remap_file_pages(), unless they it can be merged with an adjacent
one.
I didn't find *any* real code that uses remap_file_pages(2) to test
emulation impact on. I've checked Debian code search and source of all
packages in ALT Linux. No real users: libc wrappers, mentions in
strace, gdb, valgrind and this kind of stuff.
There are few basic tests in LTP for the syscall. They work just fine
with emulation.
To test performance impact, I've written small test case which
demonstrate pretty much worst case scenario: map 4G shmfs file, write to
begin of every page pgoff of the page, remap pages in reverse order,
read every page.
The test creates 1 million of VMAs if emulation is in use, so I had to
set vm.max_map_count to 1100000 to avoid -ENOMEM.
Before: 23.3 ( +- 4.31% ) seconds
After: 43.9 ( +- 0.85% ) seconds
Slowdown: 1.88x
I believe we can live with that.

Fix for BUG_ON(anon_vma->degree) splashes in unlink_anon_vmas() ("kernel
BUG at mm/rmap.c:399!") caused by commit 7a3ef208e6 ("mm: prevent
endless growth of anon_vma hierarchy")
Anon_vma_clone() is usually called for a copy of source vma in
destination argument. If source vma has anon_vma it should be already
in dst->anon_vma. NULL in dst->anon_vma is used as a sign that it's
called from anon_vma_fork(). In this case anon_vma_clone() finds
anon_vma for reusing.
Vma_adjust() calls it differently and this breaks anon_vma reusing
logic: anon_vma_clone() links vma to old anon_vma and updates degree
counters but vma_adjust() overrides vma->anon_vma right after that. As
a result final unlink_anon_vmas() decrements degree for wrong anon_vma.
This patch assigns ->anon_vma before calling anon_vma_clone().

Commit fee7e49d45 ("mm: propagate error from stack expansion even for
guard page") made sure that we return the error properly for stack
growth conditions. It also theorized that counting the guard page
towards the stack limit might break something, but also said "Let's see
if anybody notices".
Somebody did notice. Apparently android-x86 sets the stack limit very
close to the limit indeed, and including the guard page in the rlimit
check causes the android 'zygote' process problems.
So this adds the (fairly trivial) code to make the stack rlimit check be
against the actual real stack size, rather than the size of the vma that
includes the guard page.

The i_mmap_mutex is a close cousin of the anon vma lock, both protecting
similar data, one for file backed pages and the other for anon memory. To
this end, this lock can also be a rwsem. In addition, there are some
important opportunities to share the lock when there are no tree
modifications.
This conversion is straightforward. For now, all users take the write
lock.

Andrew Morton noticed that the error return from anon_vma_clone() was
being dropped and replaced with -ENOMEM (which is not itself a bug
because the only error return value from anon_vma_clone() is -ENOMEM).
I did an audit of callers of anon_vma_clone() and discovered an actual
bug where the error return was being lost. In __split_vma(), between
Linux 3.11 and 3.12 the code was changed so the err variable is used
before the call to anon_vma_clone() and the default initial value of
-ENOMEM is overwritten. So a failure of anon_vma_clone() will return
success since err at this point is now zero.
Below is a patch which fixes this bug and also propagates the error
return value from anon_vma_clone() in all cases.

The previous patch allocates bounds tables on-demand. As noted in
an earlier description, these can add up to *HUGE* amounts of
memory. This has caused OOMs in practice when running tests.
This patch adds support for freeing bounds tables when they are no
longer in use.
There are two types of mappings in play when unmapping tables:
1. The mapping with the actual data, which userspace is
munmap()ing or brk()ing away, etc...
2. The mapping for the bounds table *backing* the data
(is tagged with VM_MPX, see the patch "add MPX specific
mmap interface").
If userspace use the prctl() indroduced earlier in this patchset
to enable the management of bounds tables in kernel, when it
unmaps the first type of mapping with the actual data, the kernel
needs to free the mapping for the bounds table backing the data.
This patch hooks in at the very end of do_unmap() to do so.
We look at the addresses being unmapped and find the bounds
directory entries and tables which cover those addresses. If
an entire table is unused, we clear associated directory entry
and free the table.
Once we unmap the bounds table, we would have a bounds directory
entry pointing at empty address space. That address space might
now be allocated for some other (random) use, and the MPX
hardware might now try to walk it as if it were a bounds table.
That would be bad. So any unmapping of an enture bounds table
has to be accompanied by a corresponding write to the bounds
directory entry to invalidate it. That write to the bounds
directory can fault, which causes the following problem:
Since we are doing the freeing from munmap() (and other paths
like it), we hold mmap_sem for write. If we fault, the page
fault handler will attempt to acquire mmap_sem for read and
we will deadlock. To avoid the deadlock, we pagefault_disable()
when touching the bounds directory entry and use a
get_user_pages() to resolve the fault.
The unmapping of bounds tables happends under vm_munmap(). We
also (indirectly) call vm_munmap() to _do_ the unmapping of the
bounds tables. We avoid unbounded recursion by disallowing
freeing of bounds tables *for* bounds tables. This would not
occur normally, so should not have any practical impact. Being
strict about it here helps ensure that we do not have an
exploitable stack overflow.

If an anonymous mapping is not allowed to fault thp memory and then
madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE) is used after fault, khugepaged will never
collapse this memory into thp memory.
This occurs because the madvise(2) handler for thp, hugepage_madvise(),
clears VM_NOHUGEPAGE on the stack and it isn't stored in vma->vm_flags
until the final action of madvise_behavior(). This causes the
khugepaged_enter_vma_merge() to be a no-op in hugepage_madvise() when
the vma had previously had VM_NOHUGEPAGE set.
Fix this by passing the correct vma flags to the khugepaged mm slot
handler. There's no chance khugepaged can run on this vma until after
madvise_behavior() returns since we hold mm->mmap_sem.
It would be possible to clear VM_NOHUGEPAGE directly from vma->vm_flags
in hugepage_advise(), but I didn't want to introduce special case
behavior into madvise_behavior(). I think it's best to just let it
always set vma->vm_flags itself.

For VMAs that don't want write notifications, PTEs created for read faults
have their write bit set. If the read fault happens after VM_SOFTDIRTY is
cleared, then the PTE's softdirty bit will remain clear after subsequent
writes.
Here's a simple code snippet to demonstrate the bug:
char* m = mmap(NULL, getpagesize(), PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_SHARED, -1, 0);
system("echo 4 > /proc/$PPID/clear_refs"); /* clear VM_SOFTDIRTY */
assert(*m == '\0'); /* new PTE allows write access */
assert(!soft_dirty(x));
*m = 'x'; /* should dirty the page */
assert(soft_dirty(x)); /* fails */
With this patch, write notifications are enabled when VM_SOFTDIRTY is
cleared. Furthermore, to avoid unnecessary faults, write notifications
are disabled when VM_SOFTDIRTY is set.
As a side effect of enabling and disabling write notifications with
care, this patch fixes a bug in mprotect where vm_page_prot bits set by
drivers were zapped on mprotect. An analogous bug was fixed in mmap by
commit c9d0bf2414 ("mm: uncached vma support with writenotify").

Pull percpu updates from Tejun Heo:
"A lot of activities on percpu front. Notable changes are...
- percpu allocator now can take @gfp. If @gfp doesn't contain
GFP_KERNEL, it tries to allocate from what's already available to
the allocator and a work item tries to keep the reserve around
certain level so that these atomic allocations usually succeed.
This will replace the ad-hoc percpu memory pool used by
blk-throttle and also be used by the planned blkcg support for
writeback IOs.
Please note that I noticed a bug in how @gfp is interpreted while
preparing this pull request and applied the fix 6ae833c7fe
("percpu: fix how @gfp is interpreted by the percpu allocator")
just now.
- percpu_ref now uses longs for percpu and global counters instead of
ints. It leads to more sparse packing of the percpu counters on
64bit machines but the overhead should be negligible and this
allows using percpu_ref for refcnting pages and in-memory objects
directly.
- The switching between percpu and single counter modes of a
percpu_ref is made independent of putting the base ref and a
percpu_ref can now optionally be initialized in single or killed
mode. This allows avoiding percpu shutdown latency for cases where
the refcounted objects may be synchronously created and destroyed
in rapid succession with only a fraction of them reaching fully
operational status (SCSI probing does this when combined with
blk-mq support). It's also planned to be used to implement forced
single mode to detect underflow more timely for debugging.
There's a separate branch percpu/for-3.18-consistent-ops which cleans
up the duplicate percpu accessors. That branch causes a number of
conflicts with s390 and other trees. I'll send a separate pull
request w/ resolutions once other branches are merged"
