userfaultfd: do not untag user pointers

2021-07-24T00:43:28Z

Patch series "userfaultfd: do not untag user pointers", v5. If a user program uses userfaultfd on ranges of heap memory, it may end up passing a tagged pointer to the kernel in the range.start field of the UFFDIO_REGISTER ioctl. This can happen when using an MTE-capable allocator, or on Android if using the Tagged Pointers feature for MTE readiness [1]. When a fault subsequently occurs, the tag is stripped from the fault address returned to the application in the fault.address field of struct uffd_msg. However, from the application's perspective, the tagged address *is* the memory address, so if the application is unaware of memory tags, it may get confused by receiving an address that is, from its point of view, outside of the bounds of the allocation. We observed this behavior in the kselftest for userfaultfd [2] but other applications could have the same problem. Address this by not untagging pointers passed to the userfaultfd ioctls. Instead, let the system call fail. Also change the kselftest to use mmap so that it doesn't encounter this problem. [1] https://source.android.com/devices/tech/debug/tagged-pointers [2] tools/testing/selftests/vm/userfaultfd.c This patch (of 2): Do not untag pointers passed to the userfaultfd ioctls. Instead, let the system call fail. This will provide an early indication of problems with tag-unaware userspace code instead of letting the code get confused later, and is consistent with how we decided to handle brk/mmap/mremap in commit dcde237319e6 ("mm: Avoid creating virtual address aliases in brk()/mmap()/mremap()"), as well as being consistent with the existing tagged address ABI documentation relating to how ioctl arguments are handled. The code change is a revert of commit 7d0325749a6c ("userfaultfd: untag user pointers") plus some fixups to some additional calls to validate_range that have appeared since then.

userfaultfd/shmem: support minor fault registration for shmem

2021-07-01T03:47:27Z

This patch allows shmem-backed VMAs to be registered for minor faults. Minor faults are appropriately relayed to userspace in the fault path, for VMAs with the relevant flag. This commit doesn't hook up the UFFDIO_CONTINUE ioctl for shmem-backed minor faults, though, so userspace doesn't yet have a way to resolve such faults. Because of this, we also don't yet advertise this as a supported feature. That will be done in a separate commit when the feature is fully implemented.

mm/userfaultfd: fail uffd-wp registration if not supported

2021-07-01T03:47:27Z

We should fail uffd-wp registration immediately if the arch does not even have CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_USERFAULTFD_WP defined. That'll block also relevant ioctls on e.g. UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT because that'll check against VM_UFFD_WP, which can only be applied with a success registration. Remove the WP feature bit too for those archs when handling UFFDIO_API ioctl.

userfaultfd: add UFFDIO_CONTINUE ioctl

2021-05-05T18:27:22Z

This ioctl is how userspace ought to resolve "minor" userfaults. The idea is, userspace is notified that a minor fault has occurred. It might change the contents of the page using its second non-UFFD mapping, or not. Then, it calls UFFDIO_CONTINUE to tell the kernel "I have ensured the page contents are correct, carry on setting up the mapping". Note that it doesn't make much sense to use UFFDIO_{COPY,ZEROPAGE} for MINOR registered VMAs. ZEROPAGE maps the VMA to the zero page; but in the minor fault case, we already have some pre-existing underlying page. Likewise, UFFDIO_COPY isn't useful if we have a second non-UFFD mapping. We'd just use memcpy() or similar instead. It turns out hugetlb_mcopy_atomic_pte() already does very close to what we want, if an existing page is provided via `struct page **pagep`. We already special-case the behavior a bit for the UFFDIO_ZEROPAGE case, so just extend that design: add an enum for the three modes of operation, and make the small adjustments needed for the MCOPY_ATOMIC_CONTINUE case. (Basically, look up the existing page, and avoid adding the existing page to the page cache or calling set_page_huge_active() on it.)

userfaultfd: add minor fault registration mode

2021-05-05T18:27:22Z

Patch series "userfaultfd: add minor fault handling", v9. Overview ======== This series adds a new userfaultfd feature, UFFD_FEATURE_MINOR_HUGETLBFS. When enabled (via the UFFDIO_API ioctl), this feature means that any hugetlbfs VMAs registered with UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_MISSING will *also* get events for "minor" faults. By "minor" fault, I mean the following situation: Let there exist two mappings (i.e., VMAs) to the same page(s) (shared memory). One of the mappings is registered with userfaultfd (in minor mode), and the other is not. Via the non-UFFD mapping, the underlying pages have already been allocated & filled with some contents. The UFFD mapping has not yet been faulted in; when it is touched for the first time, this results in what I'm calling a "minor" fault. As a concrete example, when working with hugetlbfs, we have huge_pte_none(), but find_lock_page() finds an existing page. We also add a new ioctl to resolve such faults: UFFDIO_CONTINUE. The idea is, userspace resolves the fault by either a) doing nothing if the contents are already correct, or b) updating the underlying contents using the second, non-UFFD mapping (via memcpy/memset or similar, or something fancier like RDMA, or etc...). In either case, userspace issues UFFDIO_CONTINUE to tell the kernel "I have ensured the page contents are correct, carry on setting up the mapping". Use Case ======== Consider the use case of VM live migration (e.g. under QEMU/KVM): 1. While a VM is still running, we copy the contents of its memory to a target machine. The pages are populated on the target by writing to the non-UFFD mapping, using the setup described above. The VM is still running (and therefore its memory is likely changing), so this may be repeated several times, until we decide the target is "up to date enough". 2. We pause the VM on the source, and start executing on the target machine. During this gap, the VM's user(s) will *see* a pause, so it is desirable to minimize this window. 3. Between the last time any page was copied from the source to the target, and when the VM was paused, the contents of that page may have changed - and therefore the copy we have on the target machine is out of date. Although we can keep track of which pages are out of date, for VMs with large amounts of memory, it is "slow" to transfer this information to the target machine. We want to resume execution before such a transfer would complete. 4. So, the guest begins executing on the target machine. The first time it touches its memory (via the UFFD-registered mapping), userspace wants to intercept this fault. Userspace checks whether or not the page is up to date, and if not, copies the updated page from the source machine, via the non-UFFD mapping. Finally, whether a copy was performed or not, userspace issues a UFFDIO_CONTINUE ioctl to tell the kernel "I have ensured the page contents are correct, carry on setting up the mapping". We don't have to do all of the final updates on-demand. The userfaultfd manager can, in the background, also copy over updated pages once it receives the map of which pages are up-to-date or not. Interaction with Existing APIs ============================== Because this is a feature, a registered VMA could potentially receive both missing and minor faults. I spent some time thinking through how the existing API interacts with the new feature: UFFDIO_CONTINUE cannot be used to resolve non-minor faults, as it does not allocate a new page. If UFFDIO_CONTINUE is used on a non-minor fault: - For non-shared memory or shmem, -EINVAL is returned. - For hugetlb, -EFAULT is returned. UFFDIO_COPY and UFFDIO_ZEROPAGE cannot be used to resolve minor faults. Without modifications, the existing codepath assumes a new page needs to be allocated. This is okay, since userspace must have a second non-UFFD-registered mapping anyway, thus there isn't much reason to want to use these in any case (just memcpy or memset or similar). - If UFFDIO_COPY is used on a minor fault, -EEXIST is returned. - If UFFDIO_ZEROPAGE is used on a minor fault, -EEXIST is returned (or -EINVAL in the case of hugetlb, as UFFDIO_ZEROPAGE is unsupported in any case). - UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT simply doesn't work with shared memory, and returns -ENOENT in that case (regardless of the kind of fault). Future Work =========== This series only supports hugetlbfs. I have a second series in flight to support shmem as well, extending the functionality. This series is more mature than the shmem support at this point, and the functionality works fully on hugetlbfs, so this series can be merged first and then shmem support will follow. This patch (of 6): This feature allows userspace to intercept "minor" faults. By "minor" faults, I mean the following situation: Let there exist two mappings (i.e., VMAs) to the same page(s). One of the mappings is registered with userfaultfd (in minor mode), and the other is not. Via the non-UFFD mapping, the underlying pages have already been allocated & filled with some contents. The UFFD mapping has not yet been faulted in; when it is touched for the first time, this results in what I'm calling a "minor" fault. As a concrete example, when working with hugetlbfs, we have huge_pte_none(), but find_lock_page() finds an existing page. This commit adds the new registration mode, and sets the relevant flag on the VMAs being registered. In the hugetlb fault path, if we find that we have huge_pte_none(), but find_lock_page() does indeed find an existing page, then we have a "minor" fault, and if the VMA has the userfaultfd registration flag, we call into userfaultfd to handle it. This is implemented as a new registration mode, instead of an API feature. This is because the alternative implementation has significant drawbacks [1]. However, doing it this was requires we allocate a VM_* flag for the new registration mode. On 32-bit systems, there are no unused bits, so this feature is only supported on architectures with CONFIG_ARCH_USES_HIGH_VMA_FLAGS. When attempting to register a VMA in MINOR mode on 32-bit architectures, we return -EINVAL.

hugetlb/userfaultfd: unshare all pmds for hugetlbfs when register wp

2021-05-05T18:27:20Z

Huge pmd sharing for hugetlbfs is racy with userfaultfd-wp because userfaultfd-wp is always based on pgtable entries, so they cannot be shared. Walk the hugetlb range and unshare all such mappings if there is, right before UFFDIO_REGISTER will succeed and return to userspace. This will pair with want_pmd_share() in hugetlb code so that huge pmd sharing is completely disabled for userfaultfd-wp registered range.
