<id>urn:sha1:667599e718329b4e8396e6958aa16295554278ee</id>

commit 4c19719eb8b8df08c5bec7c499f73ddaea6f09fc upstream.

When an outdated transaction is removed from `oneway_todo` due to
`TF_UPDATE_TXN`, its `Allocation` is dropped. The current implementation
of `Allocation::drop` calls `pending_oneway_finished()`, assuming the
transaction was executed. This leads to premature execution of the next
queued one-way transaction.

Fix this by taking the `oneway_node` from the `Allocation` of the
outdated transaction before it is dropped. This prevents
`Allocation::drop` from signaling completion.

We do not call `take_oneway_node()` from `Transaction::cancel` because
it's actually correct to call `pending_oneway_finished()` on cancel if
the transaction did not come from `oneway_todo`. This ensures that if
`BINDER_THREAD_EXIT` is invoked and cancels a oneway transaction, then
the next transaction is taken from `oneway_todo`.

This bug does not lead to any issues in the kernel, but may lead to
Binder delivering transactions to userspace earlier than userspace
expected to receive them.

<title>rust_binder: Avoid holding lock when dropping delivered_death</title>

commit f6d8fea9e3953151a4adb4f603503dc3dc9c69da upstream.

In 6c37bebd8c926, we switched to looping over the list and dropping each
individual node, ostensibly without the lock held in the loop body.

If the kernel were using Rust Edition 2024, the comment would be
accurate, and the lock would not be held across the drop. However, the
kernel is currently using 2021, so tail expression lifetime extension
results in the lock being held across the drop. Explicitly binding the
expression result to a variable makes the lockguard no longer part of a
tail expression, causing the lock to be dropped before entering the loop
body.

This was detected via `CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING` identifying an invalid wait
context at the drop site.

commit 2adc8664018c1cc595c7c0c98474a33c7fe32a85 upstream.

Similar to `clippy::collapsible_match` (globally allowed in the previous
commit), the `clippy::collapsible_if` lint [1] can make code harder to
read in certain cases.

Thus just let developers decide on their own.

In addition, remove the existing `expect` we had.

<title>rust_binder: use AssertSync for BINDER_VM_OPS</title>

commit ec327abae5edd1d5b60ea9f920212970133171d2 upstream.

When declaring an immutable global variable in Rust, the compiler checks
that it looks thread safe, because it is generally safe to access said
global variable. When using C bindings types for these globals, we don't
really want this check, because it is conservative and assumes pointers
are not thread safe.

In the case of BINDER_VM_OPS, this is a challenge when combined with the
patch 'userfaultfd: introduce vm_uffd_ops' [1], which introduces a
pointer field to vm_operations_struct. It previously only held function
pointers, which are considered thread safe.

Rust Binder should not be assuming that vm_operations_struct contains no
pointer fields, so to fix this, use AssertSync (which Rust Binder has
already declared for another similar global of type struct
file_operations with the same problem). This ensures that even if
another commit adds a pointer field to vm_operations_struct, this does
not cause problems.

<id>urn:sha1:dd109e3442817bc03ad1f3ffd541092f8c428141</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 2e303f0febb65a434040774b793ba8356698802b upstream.

Consider the following sequence of events on a death listener:
1. The remote process dies and sends a BR_DEAD_BINDER message.
2. The local process invokes the BC_CLEAR_DEATH_NOTIFICATION command.
3. The local process then invokes the BC_DEAD_BINDER_DONE.
Then, the kernel will reply to the BC_DEAD_BINDER_DONE command with a
BR_CLEAR_DEATH_NOTIFICATION_DONE reply using push_work_if_looper().

However, this can result in a deadlock if the current thread is not a
looper. This is because dead_binder_done() still holds the proc lock
during set_notification_done(), which called push_work_if_looper().
Normally, push_work_if_looper() takes the thread lock, which is fine to
take under the proc lock. But if the current thread is not a looper,
then it falls back to delivering the reply to the process work queue,
which involves taking the proc lock. Since the proc lock is already
held, this is a deadlock.

Fix this by releasing the proc lock during set_notification_done(). It
was not intentional that it was held during that function to begin with.

I don't think this ever happens in Android because BC_DEAD_BINDER_DONE
is only invoked in response to BR_DEAD_BINDER messages, and the kernel
always delivers BR_DEAD_BINDER to a looper. So there's no scenario where
Android userspace will call BC_DEAD_BINDER_DONE on a non-looper thread.

<title>rust_binder: avoid reading the written value in offsets array</title>

<id>urn:sha1:e19afb53f7723b3bd22224f2b0c7dcfa70bb973f</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 4cb9e13fec0de7c942f5f927469beb8e48ddd20f upstream.

When sending a transaction, its offsets array is first copied into the
target proc's vma, and then the values are read back from there. This is
normally fine because the vma is a read-only mapping, so the target
process cannot change the value under us.

However, if the target process somehow gains the ability to write to its
own vma, it could change the offset before it's read back, causing the
kernel to misinterpret what the sender meant. If the sender happens to
send a payload with a specific shape, this could in the worst case lead
to the receiver being able to privilege escalate into the sender.

The intent is that gaining the ability to change the read-only vma of
your own process should not be exploitable, so remove this TOCTOU read
even though it's unexploitable without another Binder bug.

commit 8ef2c15aeae07647f530d30f6daaf79eb801bcd1 upstream.

When installing missing pages (or zapping them), Rust Binder will look
up the vma in the mm by address, and then call vm_insert_page (or
zap_page_range_single). However, if the vma is closed and replaced with
a different vma at the same address, this can lead to Rust Binder
installing pages into the wrong vma.

By installing the page into a writable vma, it becomes possible to write
to your own binder pages, which are normally read-only. Although you're
not supposed to be able to write to those pages, the intent behind the
design of Rust Binder is that even if you get that ability, it should not
lead to anything bad. Unfortunately, due to another bug, that is not the
case.

To fix this, store a pointer in vm_private_data and check that the vma
returned by vma_lookup() has the right vm_ops and vm_private_data before
trying to use the vma. This should ensure that Rust Binder will refuse
to interact with any other VMA. The plan is to introduce more vma
abstractions to avoid this unsafe access to vm_ops and vm_private_data,
but for now let's start with the simplest possible fix.

C Binder performs the same check in a slightly different way: it
provides a vm_ops-&gt;close that sets a boolean to true, then checks that
boolean after calling vma_lookup(), but this is more fragile
than the solution in this patch. (We probably still want to do both, but
the vm_ops-&gt;close callback will be added later as part of the follow-up
vma API changes.)

It's still possible to remap the vma so that pages appear in the right
vma, but at the wrong offset, but this is a separate issue and will be
fixed when Rust Binder gets a vm_ops-&gt;close callback.

commit 4fc87c240b8f30e22b7ebaae29d57105589e1c0b upstream.

The spam detection logic in TreeRange was executed before the current
request was inserted into the tree. So the new request was not being
factored in the spam calculation. Fix this by moving the logic after
the new range has been inserted.

Also, the detection logic for ArrayRange was missing altogether which
meant large spamming transactions could get away without being detected.
Fix this by implementing an equivalent low_oneway_space() in ArrayRange.

Note that I looked into centralizing this logic in RangeAllocator but
iterating through 'state' and 'size' got a bit too complicated (for me)
and I abandoned this effort.

[ Upstream commit 56d21267663bad91e8b10121224ec46366a7937e ]

In the past %pK was preferable to %p as it would not leak raw pointer
values into the kernel log. Since commit ad67b74d2469 ("printk: hash
addresses printed with %p") the regular %p has been improved to avoid
this issue. Furthermore, restricted pointers ("%pK") were never meant
to be used through printk(). They can still unintentionally leak raw
pointers or acquire sleeping locks in atomic contexts.

Switch to the regular pointer formatting which is safer and
easier to reason about.

There are still a few users of %pK left, but these use it through
seq_file, for which its usage is safe.
