[PATCH mm-unstable v1 00/20] mm/gup: remove FOLL_FORCE usage from drivers (reliable R/O long-term pinning)

[PATCH mm-unstable v1 00/20] mm/gup: remove FOLL_FORCE usage from drivers (reliable R/O long-term pinning)

[David Hildenbrand]

For now, we did not support reliable R/O long-term pinning in COW mappings.
That means, if we would trigger R/O long-term pinning in MAP_PRIVATE
mapping, we could end up pinning the (R/O-mapped) shared zeropage or a
pagecache page.

The next write access would trigger a write fault and replace the pinned
page by an exclusive anonymous page in the process page table; whatever the
process would write to that private page copy would not be visible by the
owner of the previous page pin: for example, RDMA could read stale data.
The end result is essentially an unexpected and hard-to-debug memory
corruption.

Some drivers tried working around that limitation by using
"FOLL_FORCE|FOLL_WRITE|FOLL_LONGTERM" for R/O long-term pinning for now.
FOLL_WRITE would trigger a write fault, if required, and break COW before
pinning the page. FOLL_FORCE is required because the VMA might lack write
permissions, and drivers wanted to make that working as well, just like
one would expect (no write access, but still triggering a write access to
break COW).

However, that is not a practical solution, because
(1) Drivers that don't stick to that undocumented and debatable pattern
    would still run into that issue. For example, VFIO only uses
    FOLL_LONGTERM for R/O long-term pinning.
(2) Using FOLL_WRITE just to work around a COW mapping + page pinning
    limitation is unintuitive. FOLL_WRITE would, for example, mark the
    page softdirty or trigger uffd-wp, even though, there actually isn't
    going to be any write access.
(3) The purpose of FOLL_FORCE is debug access, not access without lack of
    VMA permissions by arbitrarty drivers.

So instead, make R/O long-term pinning work as expected, by breaking COW
in a COW mapping early, such that we can remove any FOLL_FORCE usage from
drivers and make FOLL_FORCE ptrace-specific (renaming it to FOLL_PTRACE).
More details in patch #8.

Patches #1--#3 add COW tests for non-anonymous pages.
Patches #4--#7 prepare core MM for extended FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE support in
COW mappings.
Patch #8 implements reliable R/O long-term pinning in COW mappings
Patches #9--#19 remove any FOLL_FORCE usage from drivers.
Patch #20 renames FOLL_FORCE to FOLL_PTRACE.

I'm refraining from CCing all driver/arch maintainers on the whole patch
set, but only CC them on the cover letter and the applicable patch
(I know, I know, someone is always unhappy ... sorry).

RFC -> v1:
* Use term "ptrace" instead of "debuggers" in patch descriptions
* Added ACK/Tested-by
* "mm/frame-vector: remove FOLL_FORCE usage"
 -> Adjust description
* "mm: rename FOLL_FORCE to FOLL_PTRACE"

[PATCH mm-unstable v1 01/20] selftests/vm: anon_cow: prepare for non-anonymous COW tests

[David Hildenbrand]

Originally, the plan was to have a separate tests for testing COW of
non-anonymous (e.g., shared zeropage) pages.

Turns out, that we'd need a lot of similar functionality and that there
isn't a really good reason to separate it. So let's prepare for non-anon
tests by renaming to "cow".

[PATCH mm-unstable v1 02/20] selftests/vm: cow: basic COW tests for non-anonymous pages

[David Hildenbrand]

Let's add basic tests for COW with non-anonymous pages in private
mappings: write access should properly trigger COW and result in the
private changes not being visible through other page mappings.

Especially, add tests for:
* Zeropage
* Huge zeropage
* Ordinary pagecache pages via memfd and tmpfile()
* Hugetlb pages via memfd

Fortunately, all tests pass.

[PATCH mm-unstable v1 03/20] selftests/vm: cow: R/O long-term pinning reliability tests for non-anon pages

[David Hildenbrand]

Let's test whether R/O long-term pinning is reliable for non-anonymous
memory: when R/O long-term pinning a page, the expectation is that we
break COW early before pinning, such that actual write access via the
page tables won't break COW later and end up replacing the R/O-pinned
page in the page table.

Consequently, R/O long-term pinning in private mappings would only target
exclusive anonymous pages.

For now, all tests fail:
	# [RUN] R/O longterm GUP pin ... with shared zeropage
	not ok 151 Longterm R/O pin is reliable
	# [RUN] R/O longterm GUP pin ... with memfd
	not ok 152 Longterm R/O pin is reliable
	# [RUN] R/O longterm GUP pin ... with tmpfile
	not ok 153 Longterm R/O pin is reliable
	# [RUN] R/O longterm GUP pin ... with huge zeropage
	not ok 154 Longterm R/O pin is reliable
	# [RUN] R/O longterm GUP pin ... with memfd hugetlb (2048 kB)
	not ok 155 Longterm R/O pin is reliable
	# [RUN] R/O longterm GUP pin ... with memfd hugetlb (1048576 kB)
	not ok 156 Longterm R/O pin is reliable
	# [RUN] R/O longterm GUP-fast pin ... with shared zeropage

[PATCH mm-unstable v1 04/20] mm: add early FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE consistency checks

[David Hildenbrand]

For now, FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE only applies to anonymous pages, which
implies a COW mapping. Let's hide FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE early if we're not
dealing with a COW mapping, such that we treat it like a read fault as
documented and don't have to worry about the flag throughout all fault
handlers.

While at it, centralize the check for mutual exclusion of
FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE and FAULT_FLAG_WRITE and just drop the check that
either flag is set in the WP handler.

[PATCH mm-unstable v1 05/20] mm: add early FAULT_FLAG_WRITE consistency checks

[David Hildenbrand]

Let's catch abuse of FAULT_FLAG_WRITE early, such that we don't have to
care in all other handlers and might get "surprises" if we forget to do
so.

Write faults without VM_MAYWRITE don't make any sense, and our
maybe_mkwrite() logic could have hidden such abuse for now.

Write faults without VM_WRITE on something that is not a COW mapping is
similarly broken, and e.g., do_wp_page() could end up placing an
anonymous page into a shared mapping, which would be bad.

This is a preparation for reliable R/O long-term pinning of pages in
private mappings, whereby we want to make sure that we will never break
COW in a read-only private mapping.

[PATCH mm-unstable v1 06/20] mm: rework handling in do_wp_page() based on private vs. shared mappings

[David Hildenbrand]

We want to extent FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE support to anything mapped into a
COW mapping (pagecache page, zeropage, PFN, ...), not just anonymous pages.
Let's prepare for that by handling shared mappings first such that we can
handle private mappings last.

While at it, use folio-based functions instead of page-based functions
where we touch the code either way.

[PATCH mm-unstable v1 07/20] mm: don't call vm_ops->huge_fault() in wp_huge_pmd()/wp_huge_pud() for private mappings

[David Hildenbrand]

If we already have a PMD/PUD mapped write-protected in a private mapping
and we want to break COW either due to FAULT_FLAG_WRITE or
FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE, there is no need to inform the file system just like on
the PTE path.

Let's just split (->zap) + fallback in that case.

This is a preparation for more generic FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE support in
COW mappings.

I guess it could have been a single if with && and the reduced identation
could fit keeping 'ret' declaration inside.
AFAICS the later patches don't build more on top of this anyway.
But also fine keeping as is.

[PATCH mm-unstable v1 08/20] mm: extend FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE support to anything in a COW mapping

[David Hildenbrand]

Extend FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE to break COW on anything mapped into a
COW (i.e., private writable) mapping and adjust the documentation
accordingly.

FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE will now also break COW when encountering the shared
zeropage, a pagecache page, a PFNMAP, ... inside a COW mapping, by
properly replacing the mapped page/pfn by a private copy (an exclusive
anonymous page).

Note that only do_wp_page() needs care: hugetlb_wp() already handles
FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE correctly. wp_huge_pmd()/wp_huge_pud() also handles it
correctly, for example, splitting the huge zeropage on FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE
such that we can handle FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE on the PTE level.

This change is a requirement for reliable long-term R/O pinning in
COW mappings.

[PATCH mm-unstable v1 09/20] mm/gup: reliable R/O long-term pinning in COW mappings

[David Hildenbrand]

We already support reliable R/O pinning of anonymous memory. However,
assume we end up pinning (R/O long-term) a pagecache page or the shared
zeropage inside a writable private ("COW") mapping. The next write access
will trigger a write-fault and replace the pinned page by an exclusive
anonymous page in the process page tables to break COW: the pinned page no
longer corresponds to the page mapped into the process' page table.

Now that FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE can break COW on anything mapped into a
COW mapping, let's properly break COW first before R/O long-term
pinning something that's not an exclusive anon page inside a COW
mapping. FAULT_FLAG_UNSHARE will break COW and map an exclusive anon page
instead that can get pinned safely.

With this change, we can stop using FOLL_FORCE|FOLL_WRITE for reliable
R/O long-term pinning in COW mappings.

With this change, the new R/O long-term pinning tests for non-anonymous
memory succeed:
  # [RUN] R/O longterm GUP pin ... with shared zeropage
  ok 151 Longterm R/O pin is reliable
  # [RUN] R/O longterm GUP pin ... with memfd
  ok 152 Longterm R/O pin is reliable
  # [RUN] R/O longterm GUP pin ... with tmpfile
  ok 153 Longterm R/O pin is reliable
  # [RUN] R/O longterm GUP pin ... with huge zeropage
  ok 154 Longterm R/O pin is reliable
  # [RUN] R/O longterm GUP pin ... with memfd hugetlb (2048 kB)
  ok 155 Longterm R/O pin is reliable
  # [RUN] R/O longterm GUP pin ... with memfd hugetlb (1048576 kB)
  ok 156 Longterm R/O pin is reliable
  # [RUN] R/O longterm GUP-fast pin ... with shared zeropage
  ok 157 Longterm R/O pin is reliable
  # [RUN] R/O longterm GUP-fast pin ... with memfd
  ok 158 Longterm R/O pin is reliable
  # [RUN] R/O longterm GUP-fast pin ... with tmpfile
  ok 159 Longterm R/O pin is reliable
  # [RUN] R/O longterm GUP-fast pin ... with huge zeropage
  ok 160 Longterm R/O pin is reliable
  # [RUN] R/O longterm GUP-fast pin ... with memfd hugetlb (2048 kB)
  ok 161 Longterm R/O pin is reliable
  # [RUN] R/O longterm GUP-fast pin ... with memfd hugetlb (1048576 kB)
  ok 162 Longterm R/O pin is reliable

Note 1: We don't care about short-term R/O-pinning, because they have
snapshot semantics: they are not supposed to observe modifications that
happen after pinning.

As one example, assume we start direct I/O to read from a page and store
page content into a file: modifications to page content after starting
direct I/O are not guaranteed to end up in the file. So even if we'd pin
the shared zeropage, the end result would be as expected -- getting zeroes
stored to the file.

Note 2: For shared mappings we'll now always fallback to the slow path to
lookup the VMA when R/O long-term pining. While that's the necessary price
we have to pay right now, it's actually not that bad in practice: most
FOLL_LONGTERM users already specify FOLL_WRITE, for example, along with
FOLL_FORCE because they tried dealing with COW mappings correctly ...

Note 3: For users that use FOLL_LONGTERM right now without FOLL_WRITE,
such as VFIO, we'd now no longer pin the shared zeropage. Instead, we'd
populate exclusive anon pages that we can pin. There was a concern that
this could affect the memlock limit of existing setups.

For example, a VM running with VFIO could run into the memlock limit and
fail to run. However, we essentially had the same behavior already in
commit 17839856fd58 ("gup: document and work around "COW can break either
way" issue") which got merged into some enterprise distros, and there were
not any such complaints. So most probably, we're fine.

[PATCH mm-unstable v1 10/20] RDMA/umem: remove FOLL_FORCE usage

[David Hildenbrand]

GUP now supports reliable R/O long-term pinning in COW mappings, such
that we break COW early. MAP_SHARED VMAs only use the shared zeropage so
far in one corner case (DAXFS file with holes), which can be ignored
because GUP does not support long-term pinning in fsdax (see
check_vma_flags()).

Consequently, FOLL_FORCE | FOLL_WRITE | FOLL_LONGTERM is no longer required
for reliable R/O long-term pinning: FOLL_LONGTERM is sufficient. So stop
using FOLL_FORCE, which is really only for ptrace access.

[PATCH mm-unstable v1 14/20] drm/etnaviv: remove FOLL_FORCE usage

[David Hildenbrand]

GUP now supports reliable R/O long-term pinning in COW mappings, such
that we break COW early. MAP_SHARED VMAs only use the shared zeropage so
far in one corner case (DAXFS file with holes), which can be ignored
because GUP does not support long-term pinning in fsdax (see
check_vma_flags()).

commit cd5297b0855f ("drm/etnaviv: Use FOLL_FORCE for userptr")
documents that FOLL_FORCE | FOLL_WRITE was really only used for reliable
R/O pinning.

Consequently, FOLL_FORCE | FOLL_WRITE | FOLL_LONGTERM is no longer required
for reliable R/O long-term pinning: FOLL_LONGTERM is sufficient. So stop
using FOLL_FORCE, which is really only for ptrace access.

[PATCH mm-unstable v1 15/20] media: pci/ivtv: remove FOLL_FORCE usage

[David Hildenbrand]

FOLL_FORCE is really only for ptrace access. R/O pinning a page is
supposed to fail if the VMA misses proper access permissions (no VM_READ).

Let's just remove FOLL_FORCE usage here; there would have to be a pretty
good reason to allow arbitrary drivers to R/O pin pages in a PROT_NONE
VMA. Most probably, FOLL_FORCE usage is just some legacy leftover.

[PATCH mm-unstable v1 16/20] mm/frame-vector: remove FOLL_FORCE usage

[David Hildenbrand]

FOLL_FORCE is really only for ptrace access. According to commit
707947247e95 ("media: videobuf2-vmalloc: get_userptr: buffers are always
writable"), get_vaddr_frames() currently pins all pages writable as a
workaround for issues with read-only buffers.

FOLL_FORCE, however, seems to be a legacy leftover as it predates
commit 707947247e95 ("media: videobuf2-vmalloc: get_userptr: buffers are
always writable"). Let's just remove it.

Once the read-only buffer issue has been resolved, FOLL_WRITE could
again be set depending on the DMA direction.

I've decided to revert 707947247e95: I have not been able to reproduce the problem
described in that commit, and Tomasz reported that it caused problems with a
specific use-case they encountered. I'll post that patch soon and I expect it
to land in 6.2. It will cause a conflict with this patch, though.

If the problem described in that patch occurs again, then I will revisit it
and hopefully do a better job than I did before. That commit was not my
finest moment.

Hi Andrew,

see the discussion at [1] regarding a conflict and how to proceed with
upstreaming. The conflict would be easy to resolve, however, also
the patch description doesn't make sense anymore with [1].


On top of mm-unstable, reverting this patch and applying [1] gives me
an updated patch:


 From 1e66c25f1467c1f1e5f275312f2c6df29308d4df Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com>
Date: Wed, 16 Nov 2022 11:26:55 +0100
Subject: [PATCH] mm/frame-vector: remove FOLL_FORCE usage

GUP now supports reliable R/O long-term pinning in COW mappings, such
that we break COW early. MAP_SHARED VMAs only use the shared zeropage so
far in one corner case (DAXFS file with holes), which can be ignored
because GUP does not support long-term pinning in fsdax (see
check_vma_flags()).

Consequently, FOLL_FORCE | FOLL_WRITE | FOLL_LONGTERM is no longer required
for reliable R/O long-term pinning: FOLL_LONGTERM is sufficient. So stop
using FOLL_FORCE, which is really only for ptrace access.

Please let me know how you want to proceed. Ideally, you'd pick up
[1] and apply this updated patch. Also, please tell me if I should
send this updated patch in a separate mail (e.g., as reply to this mail).

Might it be easier and less confusing if you post a v2 of this series
with my patch first? That way it is clear that 1) my patch has to come
first, and 2) that it is part of a single series and should be merged
by the mm subsystem.

Less chances of things going wrong that way.

Just mention in the v2 cover letter that the first patch was added to
make it easy to backport that fix without being hampered by merge
conflicts if it was added after your frame_vector.c patch.

Regards,

	Hans

Yes, that's the way I would naturally do, it, however, Andrew prefers 
delta updates for minor changes.

I'm inclined to let things sit as they are.  Cross-tree conflicts
happen, and Linus handles them.  I'll flag this (very simple) conflict
in the pull request, if MM merges second.  If v4l merges second then
hopefully they will do the same.  But this one is so simple that Linus
hardly needs our help.

But Linus won't be editing changelogs so that the changelog makes more
sense after both trees are joined.  I'm inclined to let the changelog
sit as it is as well.

It's not about cross-tree conflicts, it's about the fact that my patch is
a fix that needs to be backported to older kernels. It should apply cleanly
to those older kernels if my patch goes in first, but if it is the other way
around I would have to make a new patch for the stable kernels.

Also, the updated changelog in David's patch that sits on top of mine
makes a lot more sense.

If you really don't want to take my patch as part of this, then let me know
and I'll take it through the media subsystem and hope for the best :-)

Regards,

	Hans

IIUC, the conflict will be resolved at merge time and the merge 
resolution will be part of the merge commit. It doesn't matter in which 
order the patches go upstream, the merge commit resolves the problematic 
overlap.

So your patch will be upstream as intended, where it can be cleanly 
backported.

Hope I am not twisting reality ;)

[PATCH mm-unstable v1 17/20] drm/exynos: remove FOLL_FORCE usage

[David Hildenbrand]

FOLL_FORCE is really only for ptrace access. As we unpin the pinned pages
using unpin_user_pages_dirty_lock(true), the assumption is that all these
pages are writable.

FOLL_FORCE in this case seems to be a legacy leftover. Let's just remove
it.

FOLL_FORCE is really only for ptrace access. As we unpin the pinned pages
using unpin_user_pages_dirty_lock(true), the assumption is that all these
pages are writable.

FOLL_FORCE in this case seems to be due to copy-and-past from other

[PATCH mm-unstable v1 20/20] mm: rename FOLL_FORCE to FOLL_PTRACE

[David Hildenbrand]

Let's make it clearer that functionality provided by FOLL_FORCE is
really only for ptrace access. Prevent accidental re-use in drivers
by renaming FOLL_FORCE to FOLL_PTRACE:

  git grep -l 'FOLL_FORCE' | xargs sed -i 's/FOLL_FORCE/FOLL_PTRACE/g'

In the future, we might want to use a separate set of flags for the
access_vm interface: most FOLL_* flags don't apply and we mostly only
want to pass FOLL_PTRACE and FOLL_WRITE.

I'm not super-happy about this one.

I do understand the "let's rename the bit so that no new user shows up".

And it's true that the main traditional use is ptrace.

But from the patch itself it becomes obvious that no, it's not *just*
ptrace. At least not yet.

It's used for get_arg_page(), which uses it to basically look up (and
install) pages in the newly created VM.

Now, I'm not entirely sure why it even uses FOLL_FORCE, - I think it
might be historical, because the target should always be the new stack
vma.

Following the history of it is a big of a mess, because there's a
number of renamings and re-organizations, but it seems to go back to
2007 and commit b6a2fea39318 ("mm: variable length argument support").

Before that commit, we kept our own array of "this is the set of pages
that I will install in the new VM". That commit basically just inserts
the pages directly into the VM instead, getting rid of the array size
limitation.

So at a minimum, I think that FOLL_FORCE would need to be removed
before any renaming to FOLL_PTRACE, because that's not some kind of
small random case.

It *might* be as simple as just removing it, but maybe there's some
reason for having it that I don't immediately see.

There _are_ also small random cases too, like get_cmdline(). Maybe
that counts as ptrace, but the execve() case most definitely does not.

Right, I have the same feeling. It might just be a copy-and-paste legacy 
leftover.

I agree. I'd suggest moving forward without this (last) patch for now 
and figuring out how to further cleanup FOLL_FORCE usage on top.

@Andrew, if you intend to put this into mm-unstable, please drop the 
last patch for now.

Oh, er, why does get_arg_page() even need FOLL_FORCE? This is writing the
new stack contents to the nascent brpm->vma, which was newly allocated
with VM_STACK_FLAGS, which an arch can override, but they all appear to include
VM_WRITE | VM_MAYWRITE.

Yeah, it does seem entirely superfluous.

It's been there since the very beginning (although in that original
commit b6a2fea39318 it was there as a '1' to the 'force' argument to
get_user_pages()).

I *think* it can be just removed. But as long as it exists, it should
most definitely not be renamed to FOLL_PTRACE.

There's a slight worry that it currently hides some other setup issue
that makes it matter, since it's been that way so long, but I can't
see what it is.

My test system boots happily with it removed. I'll throw it into -next

I went back and read parts of the discussions with Ollie, and the
.force=1 thing just magically appeared one day when we were sending
work-in-progress patches back and forth without mention of where it came
from :-/

And I certainly can't remember now..

Looking at it now, I have the same reaction as both you and Kees had, it
seems entirely superflous. So I'm all for trying to remove it.
