2026-04-18unshare: fix unshare_fs() handlingAl Viro1-1/+1
[ Upstream commit 6c4b2243cb6c0755159bd567130d5e12e7b10d9f ] There's an unpleasant corner case in unshare(2), when we have a CLONE_NEWNS in flags and current->fs hadn't been shared at all; in that case copy_mnt_ns() gets passed current->fs instead of a private copy, which causes interesting warts in proof of correctness] > I guess if private means fs->users == 1, the condition could still be true. Unfortunately, it's worse than just a convoluted proof of correctness. Consider the case when we have CLONE_NEWCGROUP in addition to CLONE_NEWNS (and current->fs->users == 1). We pass current->fs to copy_mnt_ns(), all right. Suppose it succeeds and flips current->fs->{pwd,root} to corresponding locations in the new namespace. Now we proceed to copy_cgroup_ns(), which fails (e.g. with -ENOMEM). We call put_mnt_ns() on the namespace created by copy_mnt_ns(), it's destroyed and its mount tree is dissolved, but... current->fs->root and current->fs->pwd are both left pointing to now detached mounts. They are pinning those, so it's not a UAF, but it leaves the calling process with unshare(2) failing with -ENOMEM _and_ leaving it with pwd and root on detached isolated mounts. The last part is clearly a bug. There is other fun related to that mess (races with pivot_root(), including the one between pivot_root() and fork(), of all things), but this one is easy to isolate and fix - treat CLONE_NEWNS as "allocate a new fs_struct even if it hadn't been shared in the first place". Sure, we could go for something like "if both CLONE_NEWNS *and* one of the things that might end up failing after copy_mnt_ns() call in create_new_namespaces() are set, force allocation of new fs_struct", but let's keep it simple - the cost of copy_fs_struct() is trivial. Another benefit is that copy_mnt_ns() with CLONE_NEWNS *always* gets a freshly allocated fs_struct, yet to be attached to anything. That seriously simplifies the analysis... FWIW, that bug had been there since the introduction of unshare(2) ;-/ Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260207082524.GE3183987@ZenIV Tested-by: Waiman Long <longman@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
2025-10-29copy_sighand: Handle architectures where sizeof(unsigned long) < sizeof(u64)Simon Schuster1-1/+1
commit 04ff48239f46e8b493571e260bd0e6c3a6400371 upstream. With the introduction of clone3 in commit 7f192e3cd316 ("fork: add clone3") the effective bit width of clone_flags on all architectures was increased from 32-bit to 64-bit. However, the signature of the copy_* helper functions (e.g., copy_sighand) used by copy_process was not adapted. As such, they truncate the flags on any 32-bit architectures that supports clone3 (arc, arm, csky, m68k, microblaze, mips32, openrisc, parisc32, powerpc32, riscv32, x86-32 and xtensa). For copy_sighand with CLONE_CLEAR_SIGHAND being an actual u64 constant, this triggers an observable bug in kernel selftest clone3_clear_sighand: if (clone_flags & CLONE_CLEAR_SIGHAND) in function copy_sighand within fork.c will always fail given: unsigned long /* == uint32_t */ clone_flags #define CLONE_CLEAR_SIGHAND 0x100000000ULL This commit fixes the bug by always passing clone_flags to copy_sighand via their declared u64 type, invariant of architecture-dependent integer sizes.

2025-08-28mm: drop the assumption that VM_SHARED always implies writableLorenzo Stoakes1-1/+1
[ Upstream commit e8e17ee90eaf650c855adb0a3e5e965fd6692ff1 ] Patch series "permit write-sealed memfd read-only shared mappings", v4. The man page for fcntl() describing memfd file seals states the following about F_SEAL_WRITE:- Furthermore, trying to create new shared, writable memory-mappings via mmap(2) will also fail with EPERM. With emphasis on 'writable'. In turns out in fact that currently the kernel simply disallows all new shared memory mappings for a memfd with F_SEAL_WRITE applied, rendering this documentation inaccurate. This matters because users are therefore unable to obtain a shared mapping to a memfd after write sealing altogether, which limits their usefulness. This was reported in the discussion thread [1] originating from a bug report [2]. This is a product of both using the struct address_space->i_mmap_writable atomic counter to determine whether writing may be permitted, and the kernel adjusting this counter when any VM_SHARED mapping is performed and more generally implicitly assuming VM_SHARED implies writable. It seems sensible that we should only update this mapping if VM_MAYWRITE is specified, i.e. whether it is possible that this mapping could at any point be written to. If we do so then all we need to do to permit write seals to function as documented is to clear VM_MAYWRITE when mapping read-only. It turns out this functionality already exists for F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE - we can therefore simply adapt this logic to do the same for F_SEAL_WRITE. We then hit a chicken and egg situation in mmap_region() where the check for VM_MAYWRITE occurs before we are able to clear this flag. To work around this, perform this check after we invoke call_mmap(), with careful consideration of error paths. Thanks to Andy Lutomirski for the suggestion! [1]:https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230324133646.16101dfa666f253c4715d965@linux-foundation.org/ [2]:https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=217238 This patch (of 3): There is a general assumption that VMAs with the VM_SHARED flag set are writable. If the VM_MAYWRITE flag is not set, then this is simply not the case. Update those checks which affect the struct address_space->i_mmap_writable field to explicitly test for this by introducing [vma_]is_shared_maywrite() helper functions. This remains entirely conservative, as the lack of VM_MAYWRITE guarantees that the VMA cannot be written to.

2023-09-23kernel/fork: beware of __put_task_struct() calling contextWander Lairson Costa1-0/+8
[ Upstream commit d243b34459cea30cfe5f3a9b2feb44e7daff9938 ] Under PREEMPT_RT, __put_task_struct() indirectly acquires sleeping locks. Therefore, it can't be called from an non-preemptible context. One practical example is splat inside inactive_task_timer(), which is called in a interrupt context: CPU: 1 PID: 2848 Comm: life Kdump: loaded Tainted: G W --------- Hardware name: HP ProLiant DL388p Gen8, BIOS P70 07/15/2012 Call Trace: dump_stack_lvl+0x57/0x7d mark_lock_irq.cold+0x33/0xba mark_lock+0x1e7/0x400 mark_usage+0x11d/0x140 __lock_acquire+0x30d/0x930 lock_acquire.part.0+0x9c/0x210 rt_spin_lock+0x27/0xe0 refill_obj_stock+0x3d/0x3a0 kmem_cache_free+0x357/0x560 inactive_task_timer+0x1ad/0x340 __run_hrtimer+0x8a/0x1a0 __hrtimer_run_queues+0x91/0x130 hrtimer_interrupt+0x10f/0x220 __sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt+0x7b/0xd0 sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt+0x4f/0xd0 asm_sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt+0x12/0x20 RIP: 0033:0x7fff196bf6f5 Instead of calling __put_task_struct() directly, we defer it using call_rcu(). A more natural approach would use a workqueue, but since in PREEMPT_RT, we can't allocate dynamic memory from atomic context, the code would become more complex because we would need to put the work_struct instance in the task_struct and initialize it when we allocate a new task_struct.

2023-05-17seccomp: Move copy_seccomp() to no failure path.Kuniyuki Iwashima1-6/+11
commit a1140cb215fa13dcec06d12ba0c3ee105633b7c4 upstream. Our syzbot instance reported memory leaks in do_seccomp() [0], similar to the report [1]. It shows that we miss freeing struct seccomp_filter and some objects included in it. We can reproduce the issue with the program below [2] which calls one seccomp() and two clone() syscalls. The first clone()d child exits earlier than its parent and sends a signal to kill it during the second clone(), more precisely before the fatal_signal_pending() test in copy_process(). When the parent receives the signal, it has to destroy the embryonic process and return -EINTR to user space. In the failure path, we have to call seccomp_filter_release() to decrement the filter's refcount. Initially, we called it in free_task() called from the failure path, but the commit 3a15fb6ed92c ("seccomp: release filter after task is fully dead") moved it to release_task() to notify user space as early as possible that the filter is no longer used. To keep the change and current seccomp refcount semantics, let's move copy_seccomp() just after the signal check and add a WARN_ON_ONCE() in free_task() for future debugging.

[ Upstream commit 85eaeb5058f0f04dffb124c97c86b4f18db0b833 ] Fix a nested dead lock as part of ODP flow by using mmput_async(). From the below call trace [1] can see that calling mmput() once we have the umem_odp->umem_mutex locked as required by ib_umem_odp_map_dma_and_lock() might trigger in the same task the exit_mmap()->__mmu_notifier_release()->mlx5_ib_invalidate_range() which may dead lock when trying to lock the same mutex. Moving to use mmput_async() will solve the problem as the above exit_mmap() flow will be called in other task and will be executed once the lock will be available.

2021-11-18posix-cpu-timers: Clear task::posix_cputimers_work in copy_process()Michael Pratt1-0/+1
commit ca7752caeaa70bd31d1714af566c9809688544af upstream. copy_process currently copies task_struct.posix_cputimers_work as-is. If a timer interrupt arrives while handling clone and before dup_task_struct completes then the child task will have: 1. posix_cputimers_work.scheduled = true 2. posix_cputimers_work.work queued. copy_process clears task_struct.task_works, so (2) will have no effect and posix_cpu_timers_work will never run (not to mention it doesn't make sense for two tasks to share a common linked list). Since posix_cpu_timers_work never runs, posix_cputimers_work.scheduled is never cleared. Since scheduled is set, future timer interrupts will skip scheduling work, with the ultimate result that the task will never receive timer expirations. Together, the complete flow is: 1. Task 1 calls clone(), enters kernel. 2. Timer interrupt fires, schedules task work on Task 1. 2a. task_struct.posix_cputimers_work.scheduled = true 2b. task_struct.posix_cputimers_work.work added to task_struct.task_works. 3. dup_task_struct() copies Task 1 to Task 2. 4. copy_process() clears task_struct.task_works for Task 2. 5. Future timer interrupts on Task 2 see task_struct.posix_cputimers_work.scheduled = true and skip scheduling work. Fix this by explicitly clearing contents of task_struct.posix_cputimers_work in copy_process(). This was never meant to be shared or inherited across tasks in the first place.

commit 13db8c50477d83ad3e3b9b0ae247e5cd833a7ae4 upstream. After fork, the child process will get incorrect (2x) hugetlb_usage. If a process uses 5 2MB hugetlb pages in an anonymous mapping, HugetlbPages: 10240 kB and then forks, the child will show, HugetlbPages: 20480 kB The reason for double the amount is because hugetlb_usage will be copied from the parent and then increased when we copy page tables from parent to child. Child will have 2x actual usage. Fix this by adding hugetlb_count_init in mm_init.

2021-07-14sched/core: Initialize the idle task with preemption disabledValentin Schneider1-1/+1
[ Upstream commit f1a0a376ca0c4ef1fc3d24e3e502acbb5b795674 ] As pointed out by commit de9b8f5dcbd9 ("sched: Fix crash trying to dequeue/enqueue the idle thread") init_idle() can and will be invoked more than once on the same idle task. At boot time, it is invoked for the boot CPU thread by sched_init(). Then smp_init() creates the threads for all the secondary CPUs and invokes init_idle() on them. As the hotplug machinery brings the secondaries to life, it will issue calls to idle_thread_get(), which itself invokes init_idle() yet again. In this case it's invoked twice more per secondary: at _cpu_up(), and at bringup_cpu(). Given smp_init() already initializes the idle tasks for all *possible* CPUs, no further initialization should be required. Now, removing init_idle() from idle_thread_get() exposes some interesting expectations with regards to the idle task's preempt_count: the secondary startup always issues a preempt_disable(), requiring some reset of the preempt count to 0 between hot-unplug and hotplug, which is currently served by idle_thread_get() -> idle_init(). Given the idle task is supposed to have preemption disabled once and never see it re-enabled, it seems that what we actually want is to initialize its preempt_count to PREEMPT_DISABLED and leave it there. Do that, and remove init_idle() from idle_thread_get().

2021-07-14Add a reference to ucounts for each credAlexey Gladkov1-0/+6
[ Upstream commit 905ae01c4ae2ae3df05bb141801b1db4b7d83c61 ] For RLIMIT_NPROC and some other rlimits the user_struct that holds the global limit is kept alive for the lifetime of a process by keeping it in struct cred. Adding a pointer to ucounts in the struct cred will allow to track RLIMIT_NPROC not only for user in the system, but for user in the user_namespace. Updating ucounts may require memory allocation which may fail. So, we cannot change cred.ucounts in the commit_creds() because this function cannot fail and it should always return 0. For this reason, we modify cred.ucounts before calling the commit_creds(). Changelog v6: * Fix null-ptr-deref in is_ucounts_overlimit() detected by trinity.

[ Upstream commit 82e69a121be4b1597ce758534816a8ee04c8b761 ] When a new mm is created, its PASID should be cleared, i.e. the PASID is initialized to its init state 0 on both ARM and X86. This patch was part of the series introducing mm->pasid, but got lost along the way [1]. It still makes sense to have it, because each address space has a different PASID. And the IOMMU code in iommu_sva_alloc_pasid() expects the pasid field of a new mm struct to be cleared.

[ Upstream commit f7cfd871ae0c5008d94b6f66834e7845caa93c15 ] Recently syzbot reported[0] that there is a deadlock amongst the users of exec_update_mutex. The problematic lock ordering found by lockdep was: perf_event_open (exec_update_mutex -> ovl_i_mutex) chown (ovl_i_mutex -> sb_writes) sendfile (sb_writes -> p->lock) by reading from a proc file and writing to overlayfs proc_pid_syscall (p->lock -> exec_update_mutex) While looking at possible solutions it occured to me that all of the users and possible users involved only wanted to state of the given process to remain the same. They are all readers. The only writer is exec. There is no reason for readers to block on each other. So fix this deadlock by transforming exec_update_mutex into a rw_semaphore named exec_update_lock that only exec takes for writing.

2020-12-30mm/gup: prevent gup_fast from racing with COW during forkJason Gunthorpe1-0/+1
[ Upstream commit 57efa1fe5957694fa541c9062de0a127f0b9acb0 ] Since commit 70e806e4e645 ("mm: Do early cow for pinned pages during fork() for ptes") pages under a FOLL_PIN will not be write protected during COW for fork. This means that pages returned from pin_user_pages(FOLL_WRITE) should not become write protected while the pin is active. However, there is a small race where get_user_pages_fast(FOLL_PIN) can establish a FOLL_PIN at the same time copy_present_page() is write protecting it: CPU 0 CPU 1 get_user_pages_fast() internal_get_user_pages_fast() copy_page_range() pte_alloc_map_lock() copy_present_page() atomic_read(has_pinned) == 0 page_maybe_dma_pinned() == false atomic_set(has_pinned, 1); gup_pgd_range() gup_pte_range() pte_t pte = gup_get_pte(ptep) pte_access_permitted(pte) try_grab_compound_head() pte = pte_wrprotect(pte) set_pte_at(); pte_unmap_unlock() // GUP now returns with a write protected page The first attempt to resolve this by using the write protect caused problems (and was missing a barrrier), see commit f3c64eda3e50 ("mm: avoid early COW write protect games during fork()") Instead wrap copy_p4d_range() with the write side of a seqcount and check the read side around gup_pgd_range(). If there is a collision then get_user_pages_fast() fails and falls back to slow GUP.

Fix multiple occurrences of duplicated words in kernel/. Fix one typo/spello on the same line as a duplicate word. Change one instance of "the the" to "that the". Otherwise just drop one of the repeated words.

In commit 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2"), the helper put_write_access() came with the atomic_dec operation of the i_writecount field. But it forgot to use this helper in __vma_link_file() and dup_mmap().

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux Pull kernel_clone() updates from Christian Brauner: "During the v5.9 merge window we reworked the process creation codepaths across multiple architectures. After this work we were only left with the _do_fork() helper based on the struct kernel_clone_args calling convention. As was pointed out _do_fork() isn't valid kernelese especially for a helper that isn't just static. This series removes the _do_fork() helper and introduces the new kernel_clone() helper. The process creation cleanup didn't change the name to something more reasonable mainly because _do_fork() was used in quite a few places. So sending this as a separate series seemed the better strategy. I originally intended to send this early in the v5.9 development cycle after the merge window had closed but given that this was touching quite a few places I decided to defer this until the v5.10 merge window" * tag 'kernel-clone-v5.9' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux: sched: remove _do_fork() tracing: switch to kernel_clone() kgdbts: switch to kernel_clone() kprobes: switch to kernel_clone() x86: switch to kernel_clone() sparc: switch to kernel_clone() nios2: switch to kernel_clone() m68k: switch to kernel_clone() ia64: switch to kernel_clone() h8300: switch to kernel_clone() fork: introduce kernel_clone()
2020-10-13mm, oom_adj: don't loop through tasks in __set_oom_adj when not necessarySuren Baghdasaryan1-0/+21
Currently __set_oom_adj loops through all processes in the system to keep oom_score_adj and oom_score_adj_min in sync between processes sharing their mm. This is done for any task with more that one mm_users, which includes processes with multiple threads (sharing mm and signals). However for such processes the loop is unnecessary because their signal structure is shared as well. Android updates oom_score_adj whenever a tasks changes its role (background/foreground/...) or binds to/unbinds from a service, making it more/less important. Such operation can happen frequently. We noticed that updates to oom_score_adj became more expensive and after further investigation found out that the patch mentioned in "Fixes" introduced a regression. Using Pixel 4 with a typical Android workload, write time to oom_score_adj increased from ~3.57us to ~362us. Moreover this regression linearly depends on the number of multi-threaded processes running on the system. Mark the mm with a new MMF_MULTIPROCESS flag bit when task is created with (CLONE_VM && !CLONE_THREAD && !CLONE_VFORK). Change __set_oom_adj to use MMF_MULTIPROCESS instead of mm_users to decide whether oom_score_adj update should be synchronized between multiple processes. To prevent races between clone() and __set_oom_adj(), when oom_score_adj of the process being cloned might be modified from userspace, we use oom_adj_mutex. Its scope is changed to global. The combination of (CLONE_VM && !CLONE_THREAD) is rarely used except for the case of vfork(). To prevent performance regressions of vfork(), we skip taking oom_adj_mutex and setting MMF_MULTIPROCESS when CLONE_VFORK is specified. Clearing the MMF_MULTIPRO
