commit bdc1c5fac982845a58d28690cdb56db8c88a530d upstream.

In binder_transaction_buffer_release() the 'failed_at' offset indicates
the number of objects to clean up. However, this function was changed by
commit 44d8047f1d87 ("binder: use standard functions to allocate fds"),
to release all the objects in the buffer when 'failed_at' is zero.

This introduced an issue when a transaction buffer is released without
any objects having been processed so far. In this case, 'failed_at' is
indeed zero yet it is misinterpreted as releasing the entire buffer.

This leads to use-after-free errors where nodes are incorrectly freed
and subsequently accessed. Such is the case in the following KASAN
report:

Rewrite the core freezer to behave better wrt thawing and be simpler
in general.

By replacing PF_FROZEN with TASK_FROZEN, a special block state, it is
ensured frozen tasks stay frozen until thawed and don't randomly wake
up early, as is currently possible.

As such, it does away with PF_FROZEN and PF_FREEZER_SKIP, freeing up
two PF_flags (yay!).

Specifically; the current scheme works a little like:

	freezer_do_not_count();
	schedule();
	freezer_count();

And either the task is blocked, or it lands in try_to_freezer()
through freezer_count(). Now, when it is blocked, the freezer
considers it frozen and continues.

However, on thawing, once pm_freezing is cleared, freezer_count()
stops working, and any random/spurious wakeup will let a task run
before its time.

That is, thawing tries to thaw things in explicit order; kernel
threads and workqueues before doing bringing SMP back before userspace
etc.. However due to the above mentioned races it is entirely possible
for userspace tasks to thaw (by accident) before SMP is back.

This can be a fatal problem in asymmetric ISA architectures (eg ARMv9)
where the userspace task requires a special CPU to run.

As said; replace this with a special task state TASK_FROZEN and add
the following state transitions:

	TASK_FREEZABLE	-&gt; TASK_FROZEN
	__TASK_STOPPED	-&gt; TASK_FROZEN
	__TASK_TRACED	-&gt; TASK_FROZEN

The new TASK_FREEZABLE can be set on any state part of TASK_NORMAL
(IOW. TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE and TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE) -- any such state
is already required to deal with spurious wakeups and the freezer
causes one such when thawing the task (since the original state is
lost).

The special __TASK_{STOPPED,TRACED} states *can* be restored since
their canonical state is in -&gt;jobctl.

With this, frozen tasks need an explicit TASK_FROZEN wakeup and are
free of undue (early / spurious) wakeups.

A transaction of type BINDER_TYPE_WEAK_HANDLE can fail to increment the
reference for a node. In this case, the target proc normally releases
the failed reference upon close as expected. However, if the target is
dying in parallel the call will race with binder_deferred_release(), so
the target could have released all of its references by now leaving the
cleanup of the new failed reference unhandled.

The transaction then ends and the target proc gets released making the
ref-&gt;proc now a dangling pointer. Later on, ref-&gt;node is closed and we
attempt to take spin_lock(&amp;ref-&gt;proc-&gt;inner_lock), which leads to the
use-after-free bug reported below. Let's fix this by cleaning up the
failed reference on the spot instead of relying on the target to do so.

<title>binder: fix redefinition of seq_file attributes</title>

<id>urn:sha1:b7e241bbff24f9e106bf616408fd58bcedc44bae</id>
<content type='text'>
The patchset in [1] exported some definitions to binder_internal.h in
order to make the debugfs entries such as 'stats' and 'transaction_log'
available in a binderfs instance. However, the DEFINE_SHOW_ATTRIBUTE
macro expands into a static function/variable pair, which in turn get
redefined each time a source file includes this internal header.

This problem was made evident after a report from the kernel test robot
&lt;lkp@intel.com&gt; where several W=1 build warnings are seen in downstream
kernels. See the following example:

  include/../drivers/android/binder_internal.h:111:23: warning: 'binder_stats_fops' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=]
     111 | DEFINE_SHOW_ATTRIBUTE(binder_stats);
         |                       ^~~~~~~~~~~~
  include/linux/seq_file.h:174:37: note: in definition of macro 'DEFINE_SHOW_ATTRIBUTE'
     174 | static const struct file_operations __name ## _fops = {                 \
         |                                     ^~~~~~

This patch fixes the above issues by moving back the definitions into
binder.c and instead creates an array of the debugfs entries which is
more convenient to share with binderfs and iterate through.

<title>Binder: add TF_UPDATE_TXN to replace outdated txn</title>

<id>urn:sha1:9864bb4801331daa48514face9d0f4861e4d485b</id>

When the target process is busy, incoming oneway transactions are
queued in the async_todo list. If the clients continue sending extra
oneway transactions while the target process is frozen, this queue can
become too large to accommodate new transactions. That's why binder
driver introduced ONEWAY_SPAM_DETECTION to detect this situation. It's
helpful to debug the async binder buffer exhausting issue, but the
issue itself isn't solved directly.

In real cases applications are designed to send oneway transactions
repeatedly, delivering updated inforamtion to the target process.
Typical examples are Wi-Fi signal strength and some real time sensor
data. Even if the apps might only care about the lastet information,
all outdated oneway transactions are still accumulated there until the
frozen process is thawed later. For this kind of situations, there's
no existing method to skip those outdated transactions and deliver the
latest one only.

This patch introduces a new transaction flag TF_UPDATE_TXN. To use it,
use apps can set this new flag along with TF_ONE_WAY. When such an
oneway transaction is to be queued into the async_todo list of a frozen
process, binder driver will check if any previous pending transactions
can be superseded by comparing their code, flags and target node. If
such an outdated pending transaction is found, the latest transaction
will supersede that outdated one. This effectively prevents the async
binder buffer running out and saves unnecessary binder read workloads.
