kasan_quarantine_remove_cache() is called in kmem_cache_shrink()/
destroy().  The kasan_quarantine_remove_cache() call is protected by
cpuslock in kmem_cache_destroy() to ensure serialization with
kasan_cpu_offline().

However the kasan_quarantine_remove_cache() call is not protected by
cpuslock in kmem_cache_shrink().  When a CPU is going offline and cache
shrink occurs at same time, the cpu_quarantine may be corrupted by
interrupt (per_cpu_remove_cache operation).

So add a cpu_quarantine offline flags check in per_cpu_remove_cache().

<title>no-MMU: expose vmalloc_huge() for alloc_large_system_hash()</title>

It turns out that for the CONFIG_MMU=n builds, vmalloc_huge() was never
defined, since it's defined in mm/vmalloc.c, which doesn't get built for
the no-MMU configurations.

Just implement the trivial wrapper for the no-MMU case too.  In fact,
just make it an alias to the existing __vmalloc() function that has the
same signature.

<title>kvmalloc: use vmalloc_huge for vmalloc allocations</title>

<id>9becb688913023124464c5463b4389b3b293f0e7</id>
<content type='text'>
Since commit 559089e0a93d ("vmalloc: replace VM_NO_HUGE_VMAP with
VM_ALLOW_HUGE_VMAP"), the use of hugepage mappings for vmalloc is an
opt-in strategy, because it caused a number of problems that weren't
noticed until x86 enabled it too.

One of the issues was fixed by Nick Piggin in commit 3b8000ae185c
("mm/vmalloc: huge vmalloc backing pages should be split rather than
compound"), but I'm still worried about page protection issues, and
VM_FLUSH_RESET_PERMS in particular.

However, like the hash table allocation case (commit f2edd118d02d:
"page_alloc: use vmalloc_huge for large system hash"), the use of
kvmalloc() should be safe from any such games, since the returned
pointer might be a SLUB allocation, and as such no user should
reasonably be using it in any odd ways.

We also know that the allocations are fairly large, since it falls back
to the vmalloc case only when a kmalloc() fails.  So using a hugepage
mapping seems both safe and relevant.

This patch does show a weakness in the opt-in strategy: since the opt-in
flag is in the 'vm_flags', not the usual gfp_t allocation flags, very
few of the usual interfaces actually expose it.

That's not much of an issue in this case that already used one of the
fairly specialized low-level vmalloc interfaces for the allocation, but
for a lot of other vmalloc() users that might want to opt in, it's going
to be very inconvenient.

We'll either have to fix any compatibility problems, or expose it in the
gfp flags (__GFP_COMP would have made a lot of sense) to allow normal
vmalloc() users to use hugepage mappings.  That said, the cases that
really matter were probably already taken care of by the hash tabel
allocation.

Use vmalloc_huge() in alloc_large_system_hash() so that large system
hash (&gt;= PMD_SIZE) could benefit from huge pages.

Note that vmalloc_huge only allocates huge pages for systems with
HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMALLOC.

<content type='text'>
Huge vmalloc higher-order backing pages were allocated with __GFP_COMP
in order to allow the sub-pages to be refcounted by callers such as
"remap_vmalloc_page [sic]" (remap_vmalloc_range).

However a similar problem exists for other struct page fields callers
use, for example fb_deferred_io_fault() takes a vmalloc'ed page and
not only refcounts it but uses -&gt;lru, -&gt;mapping, -&gt;index.

This is not compatible with compound sub-pages, and can cause bad page
state issues like

  BUG: Bad page state in process swapper/0  pfn:00743
  page:(____ptrval____) refcount:0 mapcount:0 mapping:0000000000000000 index:0x0 pfn:0x743

    ...

The correct approach is to use split high-order pages for the huge
vmalloc backing. These allow callers to treat them in exactly the same
way as individually-allocated order-0 pages.

In some cases it is possible for mmu_interval_notifier_remove() to race
with mn_tree_inv_end() allowing it to return while the notifier data
structure is still in use.  Consider the following sequence:

  CPU0 - mn_tree_inv_end()            CPU1 - mmu_interval_notifier_remove()
  ----------------------------------- ------------------------------------
                                      spin_lock(subscriptions-&gt;lock);
                                      seq = subscriptions-&gt;invalidate_seq;

As the wait_event() condition is true it will return immediately.  This
can lead to use-after-free type errors if the caller frees the data
structure containing the interval notifier subscription while it is
still on a deferred list.  Fix this by taking the appropriate lock when
reading invalidate_seq to ensure proper synchronisation.

I observed this whilst running stress testing during some development.
You do have to be pretty unlucky, but it leads to the usual problems of
use-after-free (memory corruption, kernel crash, difficult to diagnose
WARN_ON, etc).

In some cases it is possible for mmu_interval_notifier_remove() to race
with mn_tree_inv_end() allowing it to return while the notifier data
structure is still in use.  Consider the following sequence:

  CPU0 - mn_tree_inv_end()            CPU1 - mmu_interval_notifier_remove()
  ----------------------------------- ------------------------------------
                                      spin_lock(subscriptions-&gt;lock);
                                      seq = subscriptions-&gt;invalidate_seq;
  spin_lock(subscriptions-&gt;lock);     spin_unlock(subscriptions-&gt;lock);
  subscriptions-&gt;invalidate_seq++;
                                      wait_event(invalidate_seq != seq);
                                      return;

<title>oom_kill.c: futex: delay the OOM reaper to allow time for proper futex cleanup</title>

The pthread struct is allocated on PRIVATE|ANONYMOUS memory [1] which
can be targeted by the oom reaper.  This mapping is used to store the
futex robust list head; the kernel does not keep a copy of the robust
list and instead references a userspace address to maintain the
robustness during a process death.

A race can occur between exit_mm and the oom reaper that allows the oom
reaper to free the memory of the futex robust list before the exit path
has handled the futex death:

    CPU1                               CPU2
    --------------------------------------------------------------------
    page_fault
    do_exit "signal"
    wake_oom_reaper
                                        oom_reaper
                                        oom_reap_task_mm (invalidates mm)
    exit_mm
    exit_mm_release
    futex_exit_release
    futex_cleanup
    exit_robust_list
    get_user (EFAULT- can't access memory)

If the get_user EFAULT's, the kernel will be unable to recover the
waiters on the robust_list, leaving userspace mutexes hung indefinitely.

Delay the OOM reaper, allowing more time for the exit path to perform
the futex cleanup.

<title>mm, hugetlb: allow for "high" userspace addresses</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.toradex.cn/cgit/linux-toradex.git/commit/?id=5f24d5a579d1eace79d505b148808a850b417d4c'/>
<id>5f24d5a579d1eace79d505b148808a850b417d4c</id>
<content type='text'>
This is a fix for commit f6795053dac8 ("mm: mmap: Allow for "high"
userspace addresses") for hugetlb.

This patch adds support for "high" userspace addresses that are
optionally supported on the system and have to be requested via a hint
mechanism ("high" addr parameter to mmap).

Architectures such as powerpc and x86 achieve this by making changes to
their architectural versions of hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() function.
However, arm64 uses the generic version of that function.

So take into account arch_get_mmap_base() and arch_get_mmap_end() in
hugetlb_get_unmapped_area().  To allow that, move those two macros out
of mm/mmap.c into include/linux/sched/mm.h

If these macros are not defined in architectural code then they default
to (TASK_SIZE) and (base) so should not introduce any behavioural
changes to architectures that do not define them.

For the time being, only ARM64 is affected by this change.

Catalin (ARM64) said
 "We should have fixed hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() as well when we added
  support for 52-bit VA. The reason for commit f6795053dac8 was to
  prevent normal mmap() from returning addresses above 48-bit by default
  as some user-space had hard assumptions about this.

  It's a slight ABI change if you do this for hugetlb_get_unmapped_area()
  but I doubt anyone would notice. It's more likely that the current
  behaviour would cause issues, so I'd rather have them consistent.

  Basically when arm64 gained support for 52-bit addresses we did not
  want user-space calling mmap() to suddenly get such high addresses,
  otherwise we could have inadvertently broken some programs (similar
  behaviour to x86 here). Hence we added commit f6795053dac8. But we
  missed hugetlbfs which could still get such high mmap() addresses. So
  in theory that's a potential regression that should have bee addressed
  at the same time as commit f6795053dac8 (and before arm64 enabled
  52-bit addresses)"

When a PTE is set by UFFD operations such as UFFDIO_COPY, the PTE is
currently only marked as write-protected if the VMA has VM_WRITE flag
set.  This seems incorrect or at least would be unexpected by the users.

Consider the following sequence of operations that are being performed
on a certain page:

	mprotect(PROT_READ)
	UFFDIO_COPY(UFFDIO_COPY_MODE_WP)
	mprotect(PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE)

At this point the user would expect to still get UFFD notification when
the page is accessed for write, but the user would not get one, since
the PTE was not marked as UFFD_WP during UFFDIO_COPY.

Fix it by always marking PTEs as UFFD_WP regardless on the
write-permission in the VMA flags.
