Convert to use vm_map_pages() to map range of kernel
memory to user vma.

map->count is passed to vm_map_pages() and internal API
verify map->count against count ( count = vma_pages(vma))
for page array boundary overrun condition.

This commit breaks gntdev driver. If vma->vm_pgoff > 0, vm_map_pages
will:
 - use map->pages starting at vma->vm_pgoff instead of 0
 - verify map->count against vma_pages()+vma->vm_pgoff instead of just
   vma_pages().

In practice, this breaks using a single gntdev FD for mapping multiple
grants.

It looks like vm_map_pages() is not a good fit for this code and IMO it
should be reverted.

The actual code ignores vma->vm_pgoff > 0 scenario and mapped
the entire map->pages[i]. Why the entire map->pages[i] needs to be mapped
if vma->vm_pgoff > 0 (in original code) ?

are you referring to set vma->vm_pgoff = 0 irrespective of value passed
from user space ? If yes, using vm_map_pages_zero() is an alternate
option.

In original code ->

Count is user passed value.

and when count > i , we end up with trying to map memory outside
boundary of map->pages[i], which was not correct.

With this commit, inside __vm_map_pages(), we have addressed this scenario.

+static int __vm_map_pages(struct vm_area_struct *vma, struct page **pages,
+ unsigned long num, unsigned long offset)
+{
+ unsigned long count = vma_pages(vma);
+ unsigned long uaddr = vma->vm_start;

+ if (offset > num)
+ return -ENXIO;
+
+ /* Fail if the user requested size exceeds available object size */
+ if (count > num - offset)
+ return -ENXIO;

By checking count > num -offset. (considering vma->vm_pgoff != 0 as well).
So we will never cross the boundary of map->pages[i].

How ?

Did you hit any issue around this code in real time ?

vma->vm_pgoff is used as index passed to gntdev_find_map_index. It's
basically (ab)using this parameter for "which grant reference to map".

Yes, that should work.

gntdev_find_map_index verifies it. Specifically, it looks for a map matching
both index and count.

gntdev uses vma->vm_pgoff to select which grant entry should be mapped.
map struct returned by gntdev_find_map_index() describes just the pages
to be mapped. Specifically map->pages[0] should be mapped at
vma->vm_start, not vma->vm_start+vma->vm_pgoff*PAGE_SIZE.

When trying to map grant with index (aka vma->vm_pgoff) > 1,
__vm_map_pages() will refuse to map it because it will expect map->count
to be at least vma_pages(vma)+vma->vm_pgoff, while it is exactly
vma_pages(vma).

Yes, relevant strace output:
[pid   857] ioctl(7, IOCTL_GNTDEV_MAP_GRANT_REF, 0x7ffd3407b6d0) = 0
[pid   857] mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, 7, 0) = 0x777f1211b000
[pid   857] ioctl(7, IOCTL_GNTDEV_SET_UNMAP_NOTIFY, 0x7ffd3407b710) = 0
[pid   857] ioctl(7, IOCTL_GNTDEV_MAP_GRANT_REF, 0x7ffd3407b6d0) = 0
[pid   857] mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, 7, 0x1000) = -1 ENXIO (No such device or address)

I prefer to use vm_map_pages_zero() to resolve both the issues. Alternatively
the patch can be reverted as you suggested. Let me know you opinion and wait
for feedback from others.

Boris, would you like to give any feedback ?

vm_map_pages_zero() looks good to me. Marek, does it work for you?

Yes, replacing vm_map_pages() with vm_map_pages_zero() fixes the
problem for me.
