[ Upstream commit 3cfd22be0ad663248fadfc8f6ffa3e255c394552 ]

When the process being tracked does mremap() without
UFFD_FEATURE_EVENT_REMAP on the corresponding tracking uffd file handle,
we should not generate the remap event, and at the same time we should
clear all the uffd flags on the new VMA.  Without this patch, we can still
have the VM_UFFD_MISSING|VM_UFFD_WP flags on the new VMA even the fault
handling process does not even know the existance of the VMA.

Calling UFFDIO_UNREGISTER on virtual ranges not yet registered in uffd
could trigger an harmless false positive WARN_ON.  Check the vma is
already registered before checking VM_MAYWRITE to shut off the false
positive warning.

After the VMA to register the uffd onto is found, check that it has
VM_MAYWRITE set before allowing registration.  This way we inherit all
common code checks before allowing to fill file holes in shmem and
hugetlbfs with UFFDIO_COPY.

The userfaultfd memory model is not applicable for readonly files unless
it's a MAP_PRIVATE.

userfaultfd contains howe-grown locking of the waitqueue lock, and does
not disable interrupts.  This relies on the fact that no one else takes it
from interrupt context and violates an invariat of the normal waitqueue
locking scheme.  With aio poll it is easy to trigger other locks that
disable interrupts (or are called from interrupt context).

<content type='text'>
Use new return type vm_fault_t for fault handler.  For now, this is just
documenting that the function returns a VM_FAULT value rather than an
errno.  Once all instances are converted, vm_fault_t will become a
distinct type.

Ref-&gt; commit 1c8f422059ae ("mm: change return type to vm_fault_t")

The aim is to change the return type of finish_fault() and
handle_mm_fault() to vm_fault_t type.  As part of that clean up return
type of all other recursively called functions have been changed to
vm_fault_t type.

The places from where handle_mm_fault() is getting invoked will be
change to vm_fault_t type but in a separate patch.

vmf_error() is the newly introduce inline function in 4.17-rc6.

<title>userfaultfd: use fault_wqh lock</title>

<id>urn:sha1:c430d1e848ff1240d126e79780f3c26208b8aed9</id>
<content type='text'>
The userfaultfd code currently uses the unlocked waitqueue helpers for
managing fault_wqh, but instead of holding the waitqueue lock for this
waitqueue around these calls, it the waitqueue lock of
fault_pending_wq, which is a different waitqueue instance.  Given that
the waitqueue is not exposed to the rest of the kernel this actually
works ok at the moment, but prevents the userfaultfd locking rules from
being enforced using lockdep.

Switch to the internally locked waitqueue helpers instead.  This means
that the lock inside fault_wqh now nests inside the fault_pending_wqh
lock, but that's not a problem since it was entirely unused before.

<id>urn:sha1:31e810aa1033a7db50a2746cd34a2432237f6420</id>
<content type='text'>
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.

<id>urn:sha1:df2cc96e77011cf7989208b206da9817e0321028</id>
<content type='text'>
If a process monitored with userfaultfd changes it's memory mappings or
forks() at the same time as uffd monitor fills the process memory with
UFFDIO_COPY, the actual creation of page table entries and copying of
the data in mcopy_atomic may happen either before of after the memory
mapping modifications and there is no way for the uffd monitor to
maintain consistent view of the process memory layout.

For instance, let's consider fork() running in parallel with
userfaultfd_copy():

process        		         |	uffd monitor
---------------------------------+------------------------------
fork()        		         | userfaultfd_copy()
...        		         | ...
    dup_mmap()        	         |     down_read(mmap_sem)
    down_write(mmap_sem)         |     /* create PTEs, copy data */
        dup_uffd()               |     up_read(mmap_sem)
        copy_page_range()        |
        up_write(mmap_sem)       |
        dup_uffd_complete()      |
            /* notify monitor */ |

If the userfaultfd_copy() takes the mmap_sem first, the new page(s) will
be present by the time copy_page_range() is called and they will appear
in the child's memory mappings.  However, if the fork() is the first to
take the mmap_sem, the new pages won't be mapped in the child's address
space.

If the pages are not present and child tries to access them, the monitor
will get page fault notification and everything is fine.  However, if
the pages *are present*, the child can access them without uffd
noticing.  And if we copy them into child it'll see the wrong data.
Since we are talking about background copy, we'd need to decide whether
the pages should be copied or not regardless #PF notifications.

Since userfaultfd monitor has no way to determine what was the order,
let's disallow userfaultfd_copy in parallel with the non-cooperative
events.  In such case we return -EAGAIN and the uffd monitor can
understand that userfaultfd_copy() clashed with a non-cooperative event
and take an appropriate action.
