[PATCH hotfix 6.12 0/8] fix error handling in mmap_region() and refactor

[PATCH hotfix 6.12 0/8] fix error handling in mmap_region() and refactor

[Lorenzo Stoakes]

The mmap_region() function is somewhat terrifying, with spaghetti-like
control flow and numerous means by which issues can arise and incomplete
state, memory leaks and other unpleasantness can occur.

A large amount of the complexity arises from trying to handle errors late
in the process of mapping a VMA, which forms the basis of recently observed
issues with resource leaks and observable inconsistent state.

This series goes to great lengths to simplify how mmap_region() works and
to avoid unwinding errors late on in the process of setting up the VMA for
the new mapping, and equally avoids such operations occurring while the VMA
is in an inconsistent state.

The first four patches are intended for backporting to correct the
possibility of people encountering corrupted state while invoking mmap()
which is otherwise at risk of happening.

After this we go further, refactoring the code, placing it in mm/vma.c in
order to make it eventually userland testable, and significantly
simplifying the logic to avoid this issue arising in future.

[PATCH hotfix 6.12 1/8] mm: avoid unsafe VMA hook invocation when error arises on mmap hook

[Lorenzo Stoakes]

After an attempted mmap() fails, we are no longer in a situation where we
can safely interact with VMA hooks. This is currently not enforced, meaning
that we need complicated handling to ensure we do not incorrectly call
these hooks.

We can avoid the whole issue by treating the VMA as suspect the moment that
the file->f_ops->mmap() function reports an error by replacing whatever VMA
operations were installed with a dummy empty set of VMA operations.

We do so through a new helper function internal to mm - mmap_file() - which
is both more logically named than the existing call_mmap() function and
correctly isolates handling of the vm_op reassignment to mm.

All the existing invocations of call_mmap() outside of mm are ultimately
nested within the call_mmap() from mm, which we now replace.

It is therefore safe to leave call_mmap() in place as a convenience
function (and to avoid churn). The invokers are:

     ovl_file_operations -> mmap -> ovl_mmap() -> backing_file_mmap()
    coda_file_operations -> mmap -> coda_file_mmap()
     shm_file_operations -> shm_mmap()
shm_file_operations_huge -> shm_mmap()
            dma_buf_fops -> dma_buf_mmap_internal -> i915_dmabuf_ops
	                    -> i915_gem_dmabuf_mmap()

None of these callers interact with vm_ops or mappings in a problematic way
on error, quickly exiting out.

(I guess the "Fixes" tag here is a little unconventional in that it
doesn't actually point at the commit introducing the issue that this
commit describes, but it does mark to where the fix should be
backported, so I guess it makes sense and I don't have any better
suggestion.)

Yeah it's unfortunate but I think the only thing we can do here.

[PATCH hotfix 6.12 2/8] mm: unconditionally close VMAs on error

[Lorenzo Stoakes]

Incorrect invocation of VMA callbacks when the VMA is no longer in a
consistent state is bug prone and risky to perform.

With regards to the important vm_ops->close() callback We have gone to
great lengths to try to track whether or not we ought to close VMAs.

Rather than doing so and risking making a mistake somewhere, instead
unconditionally close and reset vma->vm_ops to an empty dummy operations
set with a NULL .close operator.

We introduce a new function to do so - vma_close() - and simplify existing
vms logic which tracked whether we needed to close or not.

This simplifies the logic, avoids incorrect double-calling of the .close()
callback and allows us to update error paths to simply call vma_close()
unconditionally - making VMA closure idempotent.

Nice simplification. Nit below.

Nit: if we want to "prevent hooks" as in "any hooks" then we should be
replacing existing vm_ops even if it has no close hook? If it's enough to
prevent further close() hooks (as commit log suggests) then the
implementation is fine but the comment might be misleading.

We prevent hooks _after close_, if it has no close, then no, but I'll update the
comment to be crystal clear.

[PATCH hotfix 6.12 3/8] mm: refactor map_deny_write_exec()

[Lorenzo Stoakes]

Refactor the map_deny_write_exec() to not unnecessarily require a VMA
parameter but rather to accept VMA flags parameters, which allows us to use
this function early in mmap_region() in a subsequent commit.

While we're here, we refactor the function to be more readable and add some
additional documentation.

nit: maybe clarify this as "nor existing VMAs newly becoming

Nit: somehow "new" is special in my editor.  Also, I'm too lazy to fix

I think your editor might be in some "edit C++" mode, where "new" is a keyword.

So it might be as simple as telling your editor that it's just C.

Or your editor just doesn't know or care about the difference.

[PATCH hotfix 6.12 4/8] mm: resolve faulty mmap_region() error path behaviour

[Lorenzo Stoakes]

The mmap_region() function is somewhat terrifying, with spaghetti-like
control flow and numerous means by which issues can arise and incomplete
state, memory leaks and other unpleasantness can occur.

A large amount of the complexity arises from trying to handle errors late
in the process of mapping a VMA, which forms the basis of recently observed
issues with resource leaks and observable inconsistent state.

Taking advantage of previous patches in this series we move a number of
checks earlier in the code, simplifying things by moving the core of the
logic into a static internal function __mmap_region().

Doing this allows us to perform a number of checks up front before we do
any real work, and allows us to unwind the writable unmap check
unconditionally as required and to perform a CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_MAPLE_TREE
validation unconditionally also.

We move a number of things here:

1. We preallocate memory for the iterator before we call the file-backed
   memory hook, allowing us to exit early and avoid having to perform
   complicated and error-prone close/free logic. We carefully free
   iterator state on both success and error paths.

2. The enclosing mmap_region() function handles the mapping_map_writable()
   logic early. Previously the logic had the mapping_map_writable() at the
   point of mapping a newly allocated file-backed VMA, and a matching
   mapping_unmap_writable() on success and error paths.

   We now do this unconditionally if this is a file-backed, shared writable
   mapping. If a driver changes the flags to eliminate VM_MAYWRITE, however
   doing so does not invalidate the seal check we just performed, and we in
   any case always decrement the counter in the wrapper.

   We perform a debug assert to ensure a driver does not attempt to do the
   opposite.

3. We also move arch_validate_flags() up into the mmap_region()
   function. This is only relevant on arm64 and sparc64, and the check is
   only meaningful for SPARC with ADI enabled. We explicitly add a warning
   for this arch if a driver invalidates this check, though the code ought
   eventually to be fixed to eliminate the need for this.

With all of these measures in place, we no longer need to explicitly close
the VMA on error paths, as we place all checks which might fail prior to a
call to any driver mmap hook.

This eliminates an entire class of errors, makes the code easier to reason
about and more robust.

I wonder if this one could be removed, earlier above we did the same config
and neither parameters changed? But it was true before this patch as well,
and maybe it's further refactored away later in the series, just noting.

If we merged successfully, I think this is not necessary? But doesn't hurt?

The two checks above used to be in the opposite order. Can we keep that just
to be sure we don't change user observable behavior unnecessarily?

Yes, this was here in case the vma changed address, so it's probably not
necessary.

Yes, it will use the allocations (and re-allocate more if necessary)
then free the unused allocations once this call path reaches
commit_merge() with the same vmi, which is nice.

And yes, it is safe to do regardless.

To be honest, this whole block is so rare that I want to delete it
anyways.

Hmm, but this was what we already did so I'd rather leave it in for now and
we can perhaps address it later?

I will remove if this isn't necessary actually, I did think it would be as
I thought maybe we'd preallocate _twice_ here otherwise? But nice that it
all gets cleaned up.

Yeah I mean I'm inclined to agree... but that last commit is somewhat
contentious it seems :)

Re: [PATCH hotfix 6.12 4/8] mm: resolve faulty mmap_region() error path behaviour

Nit: Might be worth moving the vma_iter_free() down (if not removed) so
that the vma pointer remains sane.  Just in case more stuff gets stuffed
between the two calls.

[PATCH hotfix 6.12 5/8] tools: testing: add additional vma_internal.h stubs

[Lorenzo Stoakes]

Add some additional vma_internal.h stubs in preparation for __mmap_region()
being moved to mm/vma.c. Without these the move would result in the tests
no longer compiling.

[PATCH hotfix 6.12 6/8] mm: insolate mmap internal logic to mm/vma.c

[Lorenzo Stoakes]

In previous commits we effected improvements to the mmap() logic in
mmap_region() and its newly introduced internal implementation function
__mmap_region().

However as these changes are intended to be backported, we kept the delta
as small as is possible and made as few changes as possible to the newly
introduced mm/vma.* files.

Take the opportunity to move this logic to mm/vma.c which not only isolates
it, but also makes it available for later userland testing which can help
us catch such logic errors far earlier.

[PATCH hotfix 6.12 7/8] mm: refactor __mmap_region()

[Lorenzo Stoakes]

We have seen bugs and resource leaks arise from the complexity of the
__mmap_region() function. This, and the generally deeply fragile error
handling logic and complexity which makes understanding the function
difficult make it highly desirable to refactor it into something readable.

Achieve this by separating the function into smaller logical parts which
are easier to understand and follow, and which importantly very
significantly simplify the error handling.

Note that we now call vms_abort_munmap_vmas() in more error paths than we
used to, however in cases where no abort need occur, vms->nr_pages will be
equal to zero and we simply exit this function without doing more than we
would have done previously.

Importantly, the invocation of the driver mmap hook via mmap_file() now has
very simple and obvious handling (this was previously the most problematic
part of the mmap() operation).

So this assumes vms_abort_munmap_vmas() will rely on the "vms->nr_pages will
be equal to zero" mentioned in commit log. But AFAICS
vms_gather_munmap_vmas() can fail in Nth iteration of its
for_each_vma_range() after some iterations already increased nr_pages and it
will do a reattach_vmas() and return the error and we just return the error
here.
I think either here or maybe in vms_gather_munmap_vmas() itself a reset of
vms->nr_pages to zero on error should happen for the vms_abort_munmap_vmas()
to be a no-op?

This frees the vma.

So this is use-after-free.

Maybe pass only a single struct vm_area_struct **vmap parameter to this
function, and in case of merge, change both vma and *vmap to it?.

Although I can see it's all moot after 8/8. Still let's not introduce a
temporary UAF step.

Ugh yup, I had wrongly assumed this would not be the case but there we go,
makes the point as to what this whole series is about... will fix.

Even more vom. Will fix. The irony is I 'fixed' this code to something
'neater' by referencing vma here, rather stupidly.

You can tell it's a rarely used path since I ran a full suite of tests and
didn't hit it.

Again, speaks to the point of this series in general...

As Vlastimil pointed out, there is an issue just returning the error.

This function is only called from __mmap_region() after an
__mmap_prepare() and vma_merge_new_range().  The state should be fine,
so maybe this could be WARN_ONs?  Although, it's probably safer to just
leave it.

__mmap_new_file_vma() may free the vma.  I assume this is what you
mentioned elsewhere about UAF.

So this is effectively undoing __mmap_prepare()'s accounting. I don't
have a better label for it, but it's not obvious by the label that the
accounting was done in __mmap_prepare().

Yeah no this is a new one, let me totally rework this thing and make it
operate on a single VMA and return a merged boolean and reduce the window
between 'pointer freed and pointer reassgined to literally ZERO LINES.

Sorry, I was probably feverish when I did this bit...

There's a comment in the description of the function. I'll add a comment
here too to be clear about it.

[PATCH hotfix 6.12 8/8] mm: do not attempt second merge for file-backed VMAs

[Lorenzo Stoakes]

Previously, we'd always try to merge a file-backed VMA if its flags were
changed by the driver.

This however is rarely meaningful as typically the flags would be changed
to VM_PFNMAP or other VM_SPECIAL flags which are inherently unmergable.

In cases where it is meaningful (for instance DAX) it is doubtful that this
optimisation is worth the effort and maintenance risk of having to unwind
state and perform a merge.

Since we've observed bugs and resource leaks due to complexity in this
area, it is simply not acceptable to have a 'nice to have' optimisation
like this complicating an already very complicated code path, so let's
simply eliminate it.

Hm if that's true, I'm imagining many piecemeal mmap()s of DAX that used to
merge but now will create tons of VMA's, which doesn't sound great. Then it
has also potentially breaking effects on mremap() which doesn't work accross
multiple VMA's.

What if we simply created a new vma but only then checked if the flags
changed and we can merge it with neighbours (i.e. like the mprotect()
merging case). Less efficient, but less tricky and with the same result
hopefully?

I said this repeatedly to you and Liam but you both still seemed to want
this :))

Anyway, yes. I mean you're pretty crazy if you are mapping a bunch of
adjacent DAX ranges that are all otherwise mergeable next to one another,
then on that basis assuming that you can mremap() the whole thing.

I'd probably rather just drop this idea rather than wade into something
entirely new, but let me look at whether we can leverage
vma_modify_flags().

I have a feeling we can't because we already explicitly reset state in the
merge new VMA case, and we'd be introducing a new way in which state could
get mangled.

But I'll take a look and see, otherwise we can just drop this for now and
potentially come back to it later, the key bit of the non-backport patches
are 5-7 anyway.

Today, this will only work if there is a previous vma, otherwise we skip
the attempt to merge.  It's probably a safe bet that there is a previous
vma, but it still means relying on this merging is broken today.

True, but I also have a cunning plan, based on what Vlasta was getting at
with another idea that was possibly not quite as cunning that means we
might be able to still do this but in a much less terrible way...

To clarify - this applies against Andrew's tree [0] in the
mm-hotfixes-unstable branch in order to be applicable against outstanding
hotfix patches for 6.12.

Are the latter 4 patches thus also intended as hotfix for 6.12, or was it
just due to git applying the same PATCH prefix to the whole series, and the
real intention is 6.13?

They are intended as they are in the same vein, so one could argue we
should hotfix that and be done with it... but at the same time I realise
it's a bit of a stretch so I'm happy to split the last four patches for
6.13.

The issue is expressing that the the last 4 have a dependency on the first
4 and this not getting lost in the mix...

To be clear though, the first 4 do very much _have_ to be hotfixes and ones
which are backported to stable.

Andrew - we can do whatever makes sense to you here.

Thanks!

I'm not sure that patches 4-8 are strictly 6.12 material.  What's the
thinking here?

A downside to merging all 8 patches into 6.12-rcX is that when -stable
takes patches 1-4, they will have had negligible testing without the
presence of patches 5-8.  Patches 5-8 might accidentally fix
something..

Patch 4 is absolutely critical and without which 1-3 don't really matter
all that much. It also needs to be backported (I will be doing some manual
backports for that once landed).

Patches 5-8 could be held back to 6.13 if preferred as, while nice to have
as they do further work to eliminate this class of bugs, are not as
important.
