mm/userfaultfd: fix memory corruption due to writeprotect
Userfaultfd self-test fails occasionally, indicating a memory corruption. Analyzing this problem indicates that there is a real bug since mmap_lock is only taken for read in mwriteprotect_range() and defers flushes, and since there is insufficient consideration of concurrent deferred TLB flushes in wp_page_copy(). Although the PTE is flushed from the TLBs in wp_page_copy(), this flush takes place after the copy has already been performed, and therefore changes of the page are possible between the time of the copy and the time in which the PTE is flushed. To make matters worse, memory-unprotection using userfaultfd also poses a problem. Although memory unprotection is logically a promotion of PTE permissions, and therefore should not require a TLB flush, the current userrfaultfd code might actually cause a demotion of the architectural PTE permission: when userfaultfd_writeprotect() unprotects memory region, it unintentionally *clears* the RW-bit if it was already set. Note that this unprotecting a PTE that is not write-protected is a valid use-case: the userfaultfd monitor might ask to unprotect a region that holds both write-protected and write-unprotected PTEs. The scenario that happens in selftests/vm/userfaultfd is as follows: cpu0 cpu1 cpu2 ---- ---- ---- [ Writable PTE cached in TLB ] userfaultfd_writeprotect() [ write-*unprotect* ] mwriteprotect_range() mmap_read_lock() change_protection() change_protection_range() ... change_pte_range() [ *clear* “write”-bit ] [ defer TLB flushes ] [ page-fault ] ... wp_page_copy() cow_user_page() [ copy page ] [ write to old page ] ... set_pte_at_notify() A similar scenario can happen: cpu0 cpu1 cpu2 cpu3 ---- ---- ---- ---- [ Writable PTE cached in TLB ] userfaultfd_writeprotect() [ write-protect ] [ deferred TLB flush ] userfaultfd_writeprotect() [ write-unprotect ] [ deferred TLB flush] [ page-fault ] wp_page_copy() cow_user_page() [ copy page ] ... [ write to page ] set_pte_at_notify() This race exists since commit292924b260
("userfaultfd: wp: apply _PAGE_UFFD_WP bit"). Yet, as Yu Zhao pointed, these races became apparent since commit09854ba94c
("mm: do_wp_page() simplification") which made wp_page_copy() more likely to take place, specifically if page_count(page) > 1. To resolve the aforementioned races, check whether there are pending flushes on uffd-write-protected VMAs, and if there are, perform a flush before doing the COW. Further optimizations will follow to avoid during uffd-write-unprotect unnecassary PTE write-protection and TLB flushes.
