<content type='text'>
commit 31e810aa1033a7db50a2746cd34a2432237f6420 upstream.

The fix in commit 0cbb4b4f4c44 ("userfaultfd: clear the
vma-&gt;vm_userfaultfd_ctx if UFFD_EVENT_FORK fails") cleared the
vma-&gt;vm_userfaultfd_ctx but kept userfaultfd flags in vma-&gt;vm_flags
that were copied from the parent process VMA.

As the result, there is an inconsistency between the values of
vma-&gt;vm_userfaultfd_ctx.ctx and vma-&gt;vm_flags which triggers BUG_ON
in userfaultfd_release().

Clearing the uffd flags from vma-&gt;vm_flags in case of UFFD_EVENT_FORK
failure resolves the issue.

commit 1e2c043628c7736dd56536d16c0ce009bc834ae7 upstream.

Use huge_ptep_get() to translate huge ptes to normal ptes so we can
check them with the huge_pte_* functions.  Otherwise some architectures
will check the wrong values and will not wait for userspace to bring in
the memory.

<id>urn:sha1:a9a08845e9acbd224e4ee466f5c1275ed50054e8</id>
<content type='text'>
This is the mindless scripted replacement of kernel use of POLL*
variables as described by Al, done by this script:

    for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do
        L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'`
        for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\&lt;POLL$V\&gt;\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done
    done

with de-mangling cleanups yet to come.

NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same
values as the POLL* constants do.  But they keyword here is "almost".
For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't
actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al.

The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we
should be all done.

<title>userfaultfd: convert to use anon_inode_getfd()</title>

Nothing actually calls userfaultfd_file_create() besides the
userfaultfd() system call itself.  So simplify things by folding it into
the system call and using anon_inode_getfd() instead of
anon_inode_getfile().  Do the same in resolve_userfault_fork() as well.

This removes over 50 lines with no change in functionality.

<title>mm, userfaultfd, THP: avoid waiting when PMD under THP migration</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.rulkc.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=a365ac09d334389bc69841c9d153f03fa2442f1c'/>
<id>urn:sha1:a365ac09d334389bc69841c9d153f03fa2442f1c</id>
<content type='text'>
If THP migration is enabled, for a VMA handled by userfaultfd, consider
the following situation,

  do_page_fault()
    __do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page()
     handle_userfault()
       userfault_msg()
         /* a huge page is allocated and mapped at fault address */
         /* the huge page is under migration, leaves migration entry
            in page table */
       userfaultfd_must_wait()
         /* return true because !pmd_present() */
       /* may wait in loop until fatal signal */

That is, it may be possible for userfaultfd_must_wait() encounters a PMD
entry which is !pmd_none() &amp;&amp; !pmd_present().  In the current
implementation, we will wait for such PMD entries, which may cause
unnecessary waiting, and potential soft lockup.

This is fixed via avoiding to wait when !pmd_none() &amp;&amp; !pmd_present(),
only wait when pmd_none().

This may be not a problem in practice, because userfaultfd_must_wait()
is always called with mm-&gt;mmap_sem read-locked.  mremap() will
write-lock mm-&gt;mmap_sem.  And UFFDIO_COPY doesn't support to copy THP
mapping.  But the change introduced still makes the code more correct,
and makes the PMD and PTE code more consistent.

Pull poll annotations from Al Viro:
 "This introduces a __bitwise type for POLL### bitmap, and propagates
  the annotations through the tree. Most of that stuff is as simple as
  'make -&gt;poll() instances return __poll_t and do the same to local
  variables used to hold the future return value'.

  Some of the obvious brainos found in process are fixed (e.g. POLLIN
  misspelled as POLL_IN). At that point the amount of sparse warnings is
  low and most of them are for genuine bugs - e.g. -&gt;poll() instance
  deciding to return -EINVAL instead of a bitmap. I hadn't touched those
  in this series - it's large enough as it is.

  Another problem it has caught was eventpoll() ABI mess; select.c and
  eventpoll.c assumed that corresponding POLL### and EPOLL### were
  equal. That's true for some, but not all of them - EPOLL### are
  arch-independent, but POLL### are not.

  The last commit in this series separates userland POLL### values from
  the (now arch-independent) kernel-side ones, converting between them
  in the few places where they are copied to/from userland. AFAICS, this
  is the least disruptive fix preserving poll(2) ABI and making epoll()
  work on all architectures.

  As it is, it's simply broken on sparc - try to give it EPOLLWRNORM and
  it will trigger only on what would've triggered EPOLLWRBAND on other
  architectures. EPOLLWRBAND and EPOLLRDHUP, OTOH, are never triggered
  at all on sparc. With this patch they should work consistently on all
  architectures"

<title>userfaultfd: clear the vma-&gt;vm_userfaultfd_ctx if UFFD_EVENT_FORK fails</title>

<content type='text'>
The previous fix in commit 384632e67e08 ("userfaultfd: non-cooperative:
fix fork use after free") corrected the refcounting in case of
UFFD_EVENT_FORK failure for the fork userfault paths.

That still didn't clear the vma-&gt;vm_userfaultfd_ctx of the vmas that
were set to point to the aborted new uffd ctx earlier in
dup_userfaultfd.

<title>locking/atomics: COCCINELLE/treewide: Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() patterns to READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE()</title>

<content type='text'>
Please do not apply this to mainline directly, instead please re-run the
coccinelle script shown below and apply its output.

For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in
preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the
former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of
ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't harmful, and changing them results in
churn.

However, for some features, the read/write distinction is critical to
correct operation. To distinguish these cases, separate read/write
accessors must be used. This patch migrates (most) remaining
ACCESS_ONCE() instances to {READ,WRITE}_ONCE(), using the following
coccinelle script:

----
// Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() uses to equivalent READ_ONCE() and
// WRITE_ONCE()

// $ make coccicheck COCCI=/home/mark/once.cocci SPFLAGS="--include-headers" MODE=patch

virtual patch

@ depends on patch @
expression E1, E2;
@@

- ACCESS_ONCE(E1) = E2
+ WRITE_ONCE(E1, E2)

- ACCESS_ONCE(E)
