fix race between exit_itimers() and /proc/pid/timers

2022-07-21T19:19:59+00:00

commit d5b36a4dbd06c5e8e36ca8ccc552f679069e2946 upstream. As Chris explains, the comment above exit_itimers() is not correct, we can race with proc_timers_seq_ops. Change exit_itimers() to clear signal->posix_timers with ->siglock held.

mm, hugetlb: allow for "high" userspace addresses

2022-04-27T11:53:54+00:00

commit 5f24d5a579d1eace79d505b148808a850b417d4c upstream. 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)" Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/ab847b6edb197bffdfe189e70fb4ac76bfe79e0d.1650033747.git.christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu Fixes: f6795053dac8 ("mm: mmap: Allow for "high" userspace addresses") Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy Reviewed-by: Catalin Marinas Cc: Steve Capper Cc: Will Deacon Cc: [5.0.x] Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

shm: extend forced shm destroy to support objects from several IPC nses

2021-12-01T08:19:10+00:00

commit 85b6d24646e4125c591639841169baa98a2da503 upstream. Currently, the exit_shm() function not designed to work properly when task->sysvshm.shm_clist holds shm objects from different IPC namespaces. This is a real pain when sysctl kernel.shm_rmid_forced = 1, because it leads to use-after-free (reproducer exists). This is an attempt to fix the problem by extending exit_shm mechanism to handle shm's destroy from several IPC ns'es. To achieve that we do several things: 1. add a namespace (non-refcounted) pointer to the struct shmid_kernel 2. during new shm object creation (newseg()/shmget syscall) we initialize this pointer by current task IPC ns 3. exit_shm() fully reworked such that it traverses over all shp's in task->sysvshm.shm_clist and gets IPC namespace not from current task as it was before but from shp's object itself, then call shm_destroy(shp, ns). Note: We need to be really careful here, because as it was said before (1), our pointer to IPC ns non-refcnt'ed. To be on the safe side we using special helper get_ipc_ns_not_zero() which allows to get IPC ns refcounter only if IPC ns not in the "state of destruction". Q/A Q: Why can we access shp->ns memory using non-refcounted pointer? A: Because shp object lifetime is always shorther than IPC namespace lifetime, so, if we get shp object from the task->sysvshm.shm_clist while holding task_lock(task) nobody can steal our namespace. Q: Does this patch change semantics of unshare/setns/clone syscalls? A: No. It's just fixes non-covered case when process may leave IPC namespace without getting task->sysvshm.shm_clist list cleaned up.

task_stack: Fix end_of_stack() for architectures with upwards-growing stack

2021-11-18T13:04:01+00:00

[ Upstream commit 9cc2fa4f4a92ccc6760d764e7341be46ee8aaaa1 ] The function end_of_stack() returns a pointer to the last entry of a stack. For architectures like parisc where the stack grows upwards return the pointer to the highest address in the stack. Without this change I faced a crash on parisc, because the stackleak functionality wrote STACKLEAK_POISON to the lowest address and thus overwrote the first 4 bytes of the task_struct which included the TIF_FLAGS.

x86/signal: Detect and prevent an alternate signal stack overflow

2021-07-20T14:05:50+00:00

[ Upstream commit 2beb4a53fc3f1081cedc1c1a198c7f56cc4fc60c ] The kernel pushes context on to the userspace stack to prepare for the user's signal handler. When the user has supplied an alternate signal stack, via sigaltstack(2), it is easy for the kernel to verify that the stack size is sufficient for the current hardware context. Check if writing the hardware context to the alternate stack will exceed it's size. If yes, then instead of corrupting user-data and proceeding with the original signal handler, an immediate SIGSEGV signal is delivered. Refactor the stack pointer check code from on_sig_stack() and use the new helper. While the kernel allows new source code to discover and use a sufficient alternate signal stack size, this check is still necessary to protect binaries with insufficient alternate signal stack size from data corruption.

exec: Transform exec_update_mutex into a rw_semaphore

2021-01-09T12:46:24+00:00

[ Upstream commit f7cfd871ae0c5008d94b6f66834e7845caa93c15 ] Recently syzbot reported[0] that there is a deadlock amongst the users of exec_update_mutex. The problematic lock ordering found by lockdep was: perf_event_open (exec_update_mutex -> ovl_i_mutex) chown (ovl_i_mutex -> sb_writes) sendfile (sb_writes -> p->lock) by reading from a proc file and writing to overlayfs proc_pid_syscall (p->lock -> exec_update_mutex) While looking at possible solutions it occured to me that all of the users and possible users involved only wanted to state of the given process to remain the same. They are all readers. The only writer is exec. There is no reason for readers to block on each other. So fix this deadlock by transforming exec_update_mutex into a rw_semaphore named exec_update_lock that only exec takes for writing.

mm: kmem: prepare remote memcg charging infra for interrupt contexts

2020-10-18T16:27:09+00:00

Remote memcg charging API uses current->active_memcg to store the currently active memory cgroup, which overwrites the memory cgroup of the current process. It works well for normal contexts, but doesn't work for interrupt contexts: indeed, if an interrupt occurs during the execution of a section with an active memcg set, all allocations inside the interrupt will be charged to the active memcg set (given that we'll enable accounting for allocations from an interrupt context). But because the interrupt might have no relation to the active memcg set outside, it's obviously wrong from the accounting prospective. To resolve this problem, let's add a global percpu int_active_memcg variable, which will be used to store an active memory cgroup which will be used from interrupt contexts. set_active_memcg() will transparently use current->active_memcg or int_active_memcg depending on the context. To make the read part simple and transparent for the caller, let's introduce two new functions: - struct mem_cgroup *active_memcg(void), - struct mem_cgroup *get_active_memcg(void). They are returning the active memcg if it's set, hiding all implementation details: where to get it depending on the current context.
