Subject: mm/memcontrol.c: fix use after free in mem_cgroup_iter()
This patch is sent to report an use after free in mem_cgroup_iter() after
merging commit be2657752e9e ("mm: memcg: fix use after free in
mem_cgroup_iter()").
I work with android kernel tree (4.9 & 4.14), and commit be2657752e9e
("mm: memcg: fix use after free in mem_cgroup_iter()") has been merged to
the trees. However, I can still observe use after free issues addressed
in the commit be2657752e9e. (on low-end devices, a few times this month)
backtrace:
css_tryget <- crash here
mem_cgroup_iter
shrink_node
shrink_zones
do_try_to_free_pages
try_to_free_pages
__perform_reclaim
__alloc_pages_direct_reclaim
__alloc_pages_slowpath
__alloc_pages_nodemask
To debug, I poisoned mem_cgroup before freeing it:
static void __mem_cgroup_free(struct mem_cgroup *memcg)
for_each_node(node)
free_mem_cgroup_per_node_info(memcg, node);
free_percpu(memcg->stat);
+ /* poison memcg before freeing it */
+ memset(memcg, 0x78, sizeof(struct mem_cgroup));
kfree(memcg);
}
The coredump shows the position=0xdbbc2a00 is freed.

In the reclaim path, try_to_free_pages() does not setup
sc.target_mem_cgroup and sc is passed to do_try_to_free_pages(), ...,
shrink_node().
In mem_cgroup_iter(), root is set to root_mem_cgroup because
sc->target_mem_cgroup is NULL. It is possible to assign a memcg to
root_mem_cgroup.nodeinfo.iter in mem_cgroup_iter().
try_to_free_pages
struct scan_control sc = {...}, target_mem_cgroup is 0x0;
do_try_to_free_pages
shrink_zones
shrink_node
mem_cgroup *root = sc->target_mem_cgroup;
memcg = mem_cgroup_iter(root, NULL, &reclaim);
mem_cgroup_iter()
if (!root)
root = root_mem_cgroup;
...
css = css_next_descendant_pre(css, &root->css);
memcg = mem_cgroup_from_css(css);
cmpxchg(&iter->position, pos, memcg);
My device uses memcg non-hierarchical mode. When we release a memcg:
invalidate_reclaim_iterators() reaches only dead_memcg and its parents.
If non-hierarchical mode is used, invalidate_reclaim_iterators() never
reaches root_mem_cgroup.
static void invalidate_reclaim_iterators(struct mem_cgroup *dead_memcg)
{
struct mem_cgroup *memcg = dead_memcg;
for (; memcg; memcg = parent_mem_cgroup(memcg)
...
}
So the use after free scenario looks like:
CPU1 CPU2
try_to_free_pages
do_try_to_free_pages
shrink_zones
shrink_node
mem_cgroup_iter()
if (!root)
root = root_mem_cgroup;
...
css = css_next_descendant_pre(css, &root->css);
memcg = mem_cgroup_from_css(css);
cmpxchg(&iter->position, pos, memcg);
invalidate_reclaim_iterators(memcg);
...
__mem_cgroup_free()
kfree(memcg);
try_to_free_pages
do_try_to_free_pages
shrink_zones
shrink_node
mem_cgroup_iter()
if (!root)
root = root_mem_cgroup;
...
mz = mem_cgroup_nodeinfo(root, reclaim->pgdat->node_id);
iter = &mz->iter[reclaim->priority];
pos = READ_ONCE(iter->position);
css_tryget(&pos->css) <- use after free
To avoid this, we should also invalidate root_mem_cgroup.nodeinfo.iter in
invalidate_reclaim_iterators().
