      Merge branch 'page-refs' (page ref overflow) · 6b3a7077
      Linus Torvalds authored
      Merge page ref overflow branch.
      
      Jann Horn reported that he can overflow the page ref count with
      sufficient memory (and a filesystem that is intentionally extremely
      slow).
      
      Admittedly it's not exactly easy.  To have more than four billion
      references to a page requires a minimum of 32GB of kernel memory just
      for the pointers to the pages, much less any metadata to keep track of
      those pointers.  Jann needed a total of 140GB of memory and a specially
      crafted filesystem that leaves all reads pending (in order to not ever
      free the page references and just keep adding more).
      
      Still, we have a fairly straightforward way to limit the two obvious
      user-controllable sources of page references: direct-IO like page
      references gotten through get_user_pages(), and the splice pipe page
      duplication.  So let's just do that.
      
      * branch page-refs:
        fs: prevent page refcount overflow in pipe_buf_get
        mm: prevent get_user_pages() from overflowing page refcount
        mm: add 'try_get_page()' helper function
        mm: make page ref count overflow check tighter and more explicit

      fs: prevent page refcount overflow in pipe_buf_get · 15fab63e
      Matthew Wilcox authored
      Change pipe_buf_get() to return a bool indicating whether it succeeded
      in raising the refcount of the page (if the thing in the pipe is a page).
      This removes another mechanism for overflowing the page refcount.  All
      callers converted to handle a failure.

      mm: prevent get_user_pages() from overflowing page refcount · 8fde12ca
      Linus Torvalds authored
      If the page refcount wraps around past zero, it will be freed while
      there are still four billion references to it.  One of the possible
      avenues for an attacker to try to make this happen is by doing direct IO
      on a page multiple times.  This patch makes get_user_pages() refuse to
      take a new page reference if there are already more than two billion
      references to the page.

      mm: add 'try_get_page()' helper function · 88b1a17d
      Linus Torvalds authored
      This is the same as the traditional 'get_page()' function, but instead
      of unconditionally incrementing the reference count of the page, it only
      does so if the count was "safe".  It returns whether the reference count
      was incremented (and is marked __must_check, since the caller obviously
      has to be aware of it).
      
      Also like 'get_page()', you can't use this function unless you already
      had a reference to the page.  The intent is that you can use this
      exactly like get_page(), but in situations where you want to limit the
      maximum reference count.
      
      The code currently does an unconditional WARN_ON_ONCE() if we ever hit
      the reference count issues (either zero or negative), as a notification
      that the conditional non-increment actually happened.
      
      NOTE! The count access for the "safety" check is inherently racy, but
      that doesn't matter since the buffer we use is basically half the range
      of the reference count (ie we look at the sign of the count).

      mm: make page ref count overflow check tighter and more explicit · f958d7b5
      Linus Torvalds authored
      We have a VM_BUG_ON() to check that the page reference count doesn't
      underflow (or get close to overflow) by checking the sign of the count.
      
      That's all fine, but we actually want to allow people to use a "get page
      ref unless it's already very high" helper function, and we want that one
      to use the sign of the page ref (without triggering this VM_BUG_ON).
      
      Change the VM_BUG_ON to only check for small underflows (or _very_ close
      to overflowing), and ignore overflows which have strayed into negative
      territory.

        My commit to fix CLOCK_MONOTONIC across Y2038 broke the 32-bit VDSO on
        64-bit kernels, ie. compat mode, which is only used on big endian.
      
        The rewrite of the SLB code we merged in 4.20 missed the fact that the
        0x380 exception is also used with the Radix MMU to report out of range
        accesses. This could lead to an oops if userspace tried to read from
        addresses outside the user or kernel range.
