2025-06-27mm/vma: reset VMA iterator on commit_merge() OOM failureLorenzo Stoakes1-18/+4
commit 0cf4b1687a187ba9247c71721d8b064634eda1f7 upstream. While an OOM failure in commit_merge() isn't really feasible due to the allocation which might fail (a maple tree pre-allocation) being 'too small to fail', we do need to handle this case correctly regardless. In vma_merge_existing_range(), we can theoretically encounter failures which result in an OOM error in two ways - firstly dup_anon_vma() might fail with an OOM error, and secondly commit_merge() failing, ultimately, to pre-allocate a maple tree node. The abort logic for dup_anon_vma() resets the VMA iterator to the initial range, ensuring that any logic looping on this iterator will correctly proceed to the next VMA. However the commit_merge() abort logic does not do the same thing. This resulted in a syzbot report occurring because mlockall() iterates through VMAs, is tolerant of errors, but ended up with an incorrect previous VMA being specified due to incorrect iterator state. While making this change, it became apparent we are duplicating logic - the logic introduced in commit 41e6ddcaa0f1 ("mm/vma: add give_up_on_oom option on modify/merge, use in uffd release") duplicates the vmg->give_up_on_oom check in both abort branches. Additionally, we observe that we can perform the anon_dup check safely on dup_anon_vma() failure, as this will not be modified should this call fail. Finally, we need to reset the iterator in both cases, so now we can simply use the exact same code to abort for both. We remove the VM_WARN_ON(err != -ENOMEM) as it would be silly for this to be otherwise and it allows us to implement the abort check more neatly.

2025-06-27mm/hugetlb: unshare page tables during VMA split, not beforeJann Horn1-0/+7
commit 081056dc00a27bccb55ccc3c6f230a3d5fd3f7e0 upstream. Currently, __split_vma() triggers hugetlb page table unsharing through vm_ops->may_split(). This happens before the VMA lock and rmap locks are taken - which is too early, it allows racing VMA-locked page faults in our process and racing rmap walks from other processes to cause page tables to be shared again before we actually perform the split. Fix it by explicitly calling into the hugetlb unshare logic from __split_vma() in the same place where THP splitting also happens. At that point, both the VMA and the rmap(s) are write-locked. An annoying detail is that we can now call into the helper hugetlb_unshare_pmds() from two different locking contexts: 1. from hugetlb_split(), holding: - mmap lock (exclusively) - VMA lock - file rmap lock (exclusively) 2. hugetlb_unshare_all_pmds(), which I think is designed to be able to call us with only the mmap lock held (in shared mode), but currently only runs while holding mmap lock (exclusively) and VMA lock Backporting note: This commit fixes a racy protection that was introduced in commit b30c14cd6102 ("hugetlb: unshare some PMDs when splitting VMAs"); that commit claimed to fix an issue introduced in 5.13, but it should actually also go all the way back.

2025-06-27mm: fix uprobe pte be overwritten when expanding vmaPu Lehui1-3/+17
commit 2b12d06c37fd3a394376f42f026a7478d826ed63 upstream. Patch series "Fix uprobe pte be overwritten when expanding vma". This patch (of 4): We encountered a BUG alert triggered by Syzkaller as follows: BUG: Bad rss-counter state mm:00000000b4a60fca type:MM_ANONPAGES val:1 And we can reproduce it with the following steps: 1. register uprobe on file at zero offset 2. mmap the file at zero offset: addr1 = mmap(NULL, 2 * 4096, PROT_NONE, MAP_PRIVATE, fd, 0); 3. mremap part of vma1 to new vma2: addr2 = mremap(addr1, 4096, 2 * 4096, MREMAP_MAYMOVE); 4. mremap back to orig addr1: mremap(addr2, 4096, 4096, MREMAP_MAYMOVE | MREMAP_FIXED, addr1); In step 3, the vma1 range [addr1, addr1 + 4096] will be remap to new vma2 with range [addr2, addr2 + 8192], and remap uprobe anon page from the vma1 to vma2, then unmap the vma1 range [addr1, addr1 + 4096]. In step 4, the vma2 range [addr2, addr2 + 4096] will be remap back to the addr range [addr1, addr1 + 4096]. Since the addr range [addr1 + 4096, addr1 + 8192] still maps the file, it will take vma_merge_new_range to expand the range, and then do uprobe_mmap in vma_complete. Since the merged vma pgoff is also zero offset, it will install uprobe anon page to the merged vma. However, the upcomming move_page_tables step, which use set_pte_at to remap the vma2 uprobe pte to the merged vma, will overwrite the newly uprobe pte in the merged vma, and lead that pte to be orphan. Since the uprobe pte will be remapped to the merged vma, we can remove the unnecessary uprobe_mmap upon merged vma. This problem was first found in linux-6.6.y and also exists in the community syzkaller: https://lore.kernel.org/all/000000000000ada39605a5e71711@google.com/T/ Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20250529155650.4017699-1-pulehui@huaweicloud.com Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20250529155650.4017699-2-pulehui@huaweicloud.com Fixes: 2b1444983508 ("uprobes, mm, x86: Add the ability to install and remove uprobes breakpoints") Signed-off-by: Pu Lehui <pulehui@huawei.com> Suggested-by: Lorenzo Stoakes <lorenzo.stoakes@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: Lorenzo Stoakes <lorenzo.stoakes@oracle.com> Acked-by: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com> Cc: Jann Horn <jannh@google.com> Cc: Liam Howlett <liam.howlett@oracle.com> Cc: "Masami Hiramatsu (Google)" <mhiramat@kernel.org> Cc: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
2025-05-25mm: fix copy_vma() error handling for hugetlb mappingsRicardo Cañuelo Navarro1-0/+1
If, during a mremap() operation for a hugetlb-backed memory mapping, copy_vma() fails after the source vma has been duplicated and opened (ie. vma_link() fails), the error is handled by closing the new vma. This updates the hugetlbfs reservation counter of the reservation map which at this point is referenced by both the source vma and the new copy. As a result, once the new vma has been freed and copy_vma() returns, the reservation counter for the source vma will be incorrect. This patch addresses this corner case by clearing the hugetlb private page reservation reference for the new vma and decrementing the reference before closing the vma, so that vma_close() won't update the reservation counter. This is also what copy_vma_and_data() does with the source vma if copy_vma() succeeds, so a helper function has been added to do the fixup in both functions. The issue was reported by a private syzbot instance and can be reproduced using the C reproducer in [1]. It's also a possible duplicate of public syzbot report [2].

2025-04-11mm/vma: add give_up_on_oom option on modify/merge, use in uffd releaseLorenzo Stoakes1-4/+47
Currently, if a VMA merge fails due to an OOM condition arising on commit merge or a failure to duplicate anon_vma's, we report this so the caller can handle it. However there are cases where the caller is only ostensibly trying a merge, and doesn't mind if it fails due to this condition. Since we do not want to introduce an implicit assumption that we only actually modify VMAs after OOM conditions might arise, add a 'give up on oom' option and make an explicit contract that, should this flag be set, we absolutely will not modify any VMAs should OOM arise and just bail out. Since it'd be very unusual for a user to try to vma_modify() with this flag set but be specifying a range within a VMA which ends up being split (which can fail due to rlimit issues, not only OOM), we add a debug warning for this condition. The motivating reason for this is uffd release - syzkaller (and Pedro Falcato's VERY astute analysis) found a way in which an injected fault on allocation, triggering an OOM condition on commit merge, would result in uffd code becoming confused and treating an error value as if it were a VMA pointer. To avoid this, we make use of this new VMG flag to ensure that this never occurs, utilising the fact that, should we be clearing entire VMAs, we do not wish an OOM event to be reported to us. Many thanks to Pedro Falcato for his excellent analysis and Jann Horn for his insightful and intelligent analysis of the situation, both of whom were instrumental in this fix.

2025-03-16mm: make vma cache SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCUSuren Baghdasaryan1-8/+3
To enable SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU for vma cache we need to ensure that object reuse before RCU grace period is over will be detected by lock_vma_under_rcu(). Current checks are sufficient as long as vma is detached before it is freed. The only place this is not currently happening is in exit_mmap(). Add the missing vma_mark_detached() in exit_mmap(). Another issue which might trick lock_vma_under_rcu() during vma reuse is vm_area_dup(), which copies the entire content of the vma into a new one, overriding new vma's vm_refcnt and temporarily making it appear as attached. This might trick a racing lock_vma_under_rcu() to operate on a reused vma if it found the vma before it got reused. To prevent this situation, we should ensure that vm_refcnt stays at detached state (0) when it is copied and advances to attached state only after it is added into the vma tree. Introduce vm_area_init_from() which preserves new vma's vm_refcnt and use it in vm_area_dup(). Since all vmas are in detached state with no current readers when they are freed, lock_vma_under_rcu() will not be able to take vm_refcnt after vma got detached even if vma is reused. vma_mark_attached() in modified to include a release fence to ensure all stores to the vma happen before vm_refcnt gets initialized. Finally, make vm_area_cachep SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU. This will facilitate vm_area_struct reuse and will minimize the number of call_rcu() calls.

2025-03-16mm: introduce vma_iter_store_attached() to use with attached vmasSuren Baghdasaryan1-6/+6
vma_iter_store() functions can be used both when adding a new vma and when updating an existing one. However for existing ones we do not need to mark them attached as they are already marked that way. With vma->detached being a separate flag, double-marking a vmas as attached or detached is not an issue because the flag will simply be overwritten with the same value. However once we fold this flag into the refcount later in this series, re-attaching or re-detaching a vma becomes an issue since these operations will be incrementing/decrementing a refcount. Introduce vma_iter_store_new() and vma_iter_store_overwrite() to replace vma_iter_store() and avoid re-attaching a vma during vma update. Add assertions in vma_mark_attached()/vma_mark_detached() to catch invalid usage. Update vma tests to check for vma detached state correctness.

2025-03-16mm: mark vma as detached until it's added into vma treeSuren Baghdasaryan1-3/+3
Current implementation does not set detached flag when a VMA is first allocated. This does not represent the real state of the VMA, which is detached until it is added into mm's VMA tree. Fix this by marking new VMAs as detached and resetting detached flag only after VMA is added into a tree. Introduce vma_mark_attached() to make the API more readable and to simplify possible future cleanup when vma->vm_mm might be used to indicate detached vma and vma_mark_attached() will need an additional mm parameter.

2025-03-16mm: completely abstract unnecessary adj_start calculationLorenzo Stoakes1-52/+47
The adj_start calculation has been a constant source of confusion in the VMA merge code. There are two cases to consider, one where we adjust the start of the vmg->middle VMA (i.e. the vmg->__adjust_middle_start merge flag is set), in which case adj_start is calculated as: (1) adj_start = vmg->end - vmg->middle->vm_start And the case where we adjust the start of the vmg->next VMA (i.e. the vmg->__adjust_next_start merge flag is set), in which case adj_start is calculated as: (2) adj_start = -(vmg->middle->vm_end - vmg->end) We apply (1) thusly: vmg->middle->vm_start = vmg->middle->vm_start + vmg->end - vmg->middle->vm_start Which simplifies to: vmg->middle->vm_start = vmg->end Similarly, we apply (2) as: vmg->next->vm_start = vmg->next->vm_start + -(vmg->middle->vm_end - vmg->end) Noting that for these VMAs to be mergeable vmg->middle->vm_end == vmg->next->vm_start and so this simplifies to: vmg->next->vm_start = vmg->next->vm_start + -(vmg->next->vm_start - vmg->end) Which simplifies to: vmg->next->vm_start = vmg->end Therefore in each case, we simply need to adjust the start of the VMA to vmg->end (!) and can do away with this adj_start calculation. The only caveat is that we must ensure we update the vm_pgoff field correctly. We therefore abstract this entire calculation to a new function vmg_adjust_set_range() which performs this calculation and sets the adjusted VMA's new range using the general vma_set_range() function. We also must update vma_adjust_trans_huge() which expects the now-abstracted adj_start parameter. It turns out this is wholly unnecessary. In vma_adjust_trans_huge() the relevant code is: if (adjust_next > 0) { struct vm_area_struct *next = find_vma(vma->vm_mm, vma->vm_end); unsigned long nstart = next->vm_start; nstart += adjust_next; split_huge_pmd_if_needed(next, nstart); } The only case where this is relevant is when vmg->__adjust_middle_start is specified (in which case adj_next would have been positive), i.e. the one in which the vma specified is vmg->prev and this the sought 'next' VMA would be vmg->middle. We can therefore eliminate the find_vma() invocation altogether and simply provide the vmg->middle VMA in this instance, or NULL otherwise. Again we have an adj_next offset calculation: next->vm_start + vmg->end - vmg->middle->vm_start Where next == vmg->middle this simplifies to vmg->end as previously demonstrated. Therefore nstart is equal to vmg->end, which is already passed to vma_adjust_trans_huge() via the 'end' parameter and so this code (rather delightfully) simplifies to: if (next) split_huge_pmd_if_needed(next, end); With these changes in place, it becomes silly for commit_merge() to return vmg->target, as it is always the same and threaded through vmg, so we finally change commit_merge() to return an error value once again. This patch has no change in functional behaviour.

2025-03-16mm: make vmg->target consistent and further simplify commit_merge()Lorenzo Stoakes1-58/+61
It is confusing for vmg->target to sometimes be the target merged VMA and in one case not. Fix this by having commit_merge() use its awareness of the vmg->_adjust_next_start case to know that it is manipulating a separate vma, abstracted in the 'vma' local variable. Place removal and adjust VMA determination logic into init_multi_vma_prep(), as the flags give us enough information to do so, and since this is the function that sets up the vma_prepare struct it makes sense to do so here. Doing this significantly simplifies commit_merge(), allowing us to eliminate the 'merge_target' handling, initialise the VMA iterator in a more sensible place and simply return vmg->target consistently. This also allows us to simplify setting vmg->target in vma_merge_existing_range() since we are then left only with two cases - merge left (or both) where the target is vmg->prev or merge right in which the target is vmg->next. This makes it easy for somebody reading the code to know what VMA will actually be the one returned and merged into and removes a great deal of the confusing 'adjust' nonsense. This patch has no change in functional behaviour.

2025-03-16mm: eliminate adj_start parameter from commit_merge()Lorenzo Stoakes1-20/+30
Introduce internal vmg->__adjust_middle_start and vmg->__adjust_next_start merge flags, enabling us to indicate to commit_merge() that we are performing a merge which either spans only part of vmg->middle, or part of vmg->next respectively. In the former instance, we change the start of vmg->middle to match the attributes of vmg->prev, without spanning all of vmg->middle. This implies that vmg->prev->vm_end and vmg->middle->vm_start are both increased to form the new merged VMA (vmg->prev) and the new subsequent VMA (vmg->middle). In the latter case, we change the end of vmg->middle to match the attributes of vmg->next, without spanning all of vmg->next. This implies that vmg->middle->vm_end and vmg->next->vm_start are both decreased to form the new merged VMA (vmg->next) and the new prior VMA (vmg->middle). Since we now have a stable set of prev, middle, next VMAs threaded through vmg and with these flags set know what is happening, we can perform the calculation in commit_merge() instead. This allows us to drop the confusing adj_start parameter and instead pass semantic information to commit_merge(). In the latter case the -(middle->vm_end - start) calculation becomes -(middle->vm-end - vmg->end), however this is correct as vmg->end is set to the start parameter. This is because in this case (rather confusingly), we manipulate vmg->middle, but ultimately return vmg->next, whose range will be correctly specified. At this point vmg->start, end is the new range for the prior VMA rather than the merged one. This patch has no change in functional behaviour.

2025-03-16mm: further refactor commit_merge()Lorenzo Stoakes1-49/+52
The current VMA merge mechanism contains a number of confusing mechanisms around removal of VMAs on merge and the shrinking of the VMA adjacent to vma->target in the case of merges which result in a partial merge with that adjacent VMA. Since we now have a STABLE set of VMAs - prev, middle, next - we are now able to have the caller of commit_merge() explicitly tell us which VMAs need deleting, using newly introduced internal VMA merge flags. Doing so allows us to embed this state within the VMG and remove the confusing remove, remove2 parameters from commit_merge(). We additionally are able to eliminate the highly confusing and misleading 'expanded' parameter - a parameter that in reality refers to whether or not the return VMA is the target one or the one immediately adjacent. We can infer which is the case from whether or not the adj_start parameter is negative. This also allows us to simplify further logic around iterator configuration and VMA iterator stores. Doing so means we can also eliminate the adjust parameter, as we are able to infer which VMA ought to be adjusted from adj_start - a positive value implies we adjust the start of 'middle', a negative one implies we adjust the start of 'next'. We are then able to have commit_merge() explicitly return the target VMA, or NULL on inability to pre-allocate memory. Errors were previously filtered so behaviour does not change. We additionally move from the slightly odd use of a bitwise-flag enum vmg->merge_flags field to vmg bitfields. This patch has no change in functional behaviour.

2025-03-16mm: simplify vma merge structure and expand commentsLorenzo Stoakes1-80/+86
Patch series "mm: further simplify VMA merge operation", v3. While significant efforts have been made to improve the VMA merge operation, there remains remnants of the bad (or rather confusing) old days, which make the code difficult to understand, more bug prone and thus harder to modify. This series attempts to significantly improve matters in a number of respects - with a focus on simplifying the commit_merge() function which actually actions the merge operation - and importantly, adjusting the two most confusing merge cases - those in which we 'adjust' the VMA immediately adjacent to the one being merged. One source of confusion are the VMAs being threaded through the operation themselves - vmg->prev, vmg->vma and vmg->next. At the start of the operation, vmg->vma is either NULL if a new VMA is propose to be added, or if not then a pointer to an existing VMA being modified, and prev/next are (perhaps not present) VMAs sat immediately before and after the range specified in vmg->start, end, respectively. However, during the VMA merge operation, we change vmg->start, end and pgoff to span the newly merged range and vmg->vma to either be: a. The ultimately returned VMA (in most cases) or b. A VMA which we will manipulate, but ultimately instead return vmg->next. Case b. especially here is confusing for somebody reading this code, but the fact we update this state, along with vmg->start, end, pgoff only makes matters worse. We simplify things by replacing vmg->vma with vmg->middle and never changing it - this is always either NULL (for a new VMA) or the VMA being modified between vmg->prev and vmg->next. We further simplify by placing the merged VMA in a new vmg->target field - whether case b. above is the case or not. The reader of the code can now simply rely on vmg->middle being the middle VMA and vmg->target being the ultimately merged VMA. We additionally tackle the confusing cases where we 'adjust' VMAs other than the one we ultimately return as the merged VMA (this includes case b. above). These are: (1) merge <-----------> |------||--------| |------------|---| | prev || middle | -> | target | m | |------||--------| |------------|---| In which case middle must be adjusted so middle->vm_start is increased as well as performing the merge. (2) (equivalent to case b. above) <-------------> |---------||------| |---|-------------| | middle || next | -> | m | target | |---------||------| |---|-------------| In which case next must be adjusted so next->vm_start is decreased as well as performing the merge. This cases have previously been performed by calculating and passing around a dubious and confusing 'adj_start' parameter along side a pointer to an 'adjust' VMA indicating which VMA requires additional adjustment (middle in case 1 and next in case 2). With the VMG structure in place we are able to avoid this by simply setting a merge flag to describe each case: (1) Sets the vmg->__adjust_middle_start flag (2) Sets the vmg->__adjust_next_start flag By doing so it turns out we can vastly simplify the logic and calculate what is required to perform the operation. Taken together the refactorings make it far easier to understand what is being done even in these more confusing cases, make the code far more maintainable, debuggable, and testable, providing more internal state indicating what is happening in the merge operation. The changes have no functional net impact on the merge operation and everything should still behave as it did before. This patch (of 5): The merge code, while much improved, still has a number of points of confusion. As part of a broader series cleaning this up to make this more maintainable, we start by addressing some confusion around vma_merge_struct fields. So far, the caller either provides no vmg->vma (a new VMA) or supplies the existing VMA which is being altered, setting vmg->start,end,pgoff to the proposed VMA dimensions. vmg->vma is then updated, as are vmg->start,end,pgoff as the merge process proceeds and the appropriate merge strategy is determined. This is rather confusing, as vmg->vma starts off as the 'middle' VMA between vmg->prev,next, but becomes the 'target' VMA, except in one specific edge case (merge next, shrink middle). Int his patch we introduce vmg->middle to describe the VMA that is between vmg->prev and vmg->next, and does NOT change during the merge operation. We replace vmg->vma with vmg->target, and use this only during the merge operation itself. Aside from the merge right, shrink middle case, this becomes the VMA that forms the basis of the VMA that is returned. This edge case can be addressed in a future commit. We also add a number of comments to explain what is going on. Finally, we adjust the ASCII diagrams showing each merge case in vma_merge_existing_range() to be clearer - the arrow range previously showed the vmg->start, end spanned area, but it is clearer to change this to show the final merged VMA. This patch has no change in functional behaviour.

2025-03-16mm/vma: do not register private-anon mappings with khugepaged during mmapDev Jain1-1/+2
We already are registering private-anon VMAs with khugepaged during fault time, in do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page(). Commit "register suitable readonly file vmas for khugepaged" moved the khugepaged registration logic from shmem_mmap to the generic mmap path. The userspace-visible effect should be this: khugepaged will unnecessarily scan mm's which haven't yet faulted in. Note that it won't actually collapse because all PTEs are none. Now that I think about it, the mm is going to have a file VMA anyways during fork+exec, so the mm already gets registered during mmap due to the non-anon case (I *think*), so at least one of either the mmap registration or fault-time registration is redundant. Make this logic specific for non-anon mappings.

2025-03-05mm: abort vma_modify() on merge out of memory failureLorenzo Stoakes1-4/+8
The remainder of vma_modify() relies upon the vmg state remaining pristine after a merge attempt. Usually this is the case, however in the one edge case scenario of a merge attempt failing not due to the specified range being unmergeable, but rather due to an out of memory error arising when attempting to commit the merge, this assumption becomes untrue. This results in vmg->start, end being modified, and thus the proceeding attempts to split the VMA will be done with invalid start/end values. Thankfully, it is likely practically impossible for us to hit this in reality, as it would require a maple tree node pre-allocation failure that would likely never happen due to it being 'too small to fail', i.e. the kernel would simply keep retrying reclaim until it succeeded. However, this scenario remains theoretically possible, and what we are doing here is wrong so we must correct it. The safest option is, when this scenario occurs, to simply give up the operation. If we cannot allocate memory to merge, then we cannot allocate memory to split either (perhaps moreso!). Any scenario where this would be happening would be under very extreme (likely fatal) memory pressure, so it's best we give up early. So there is no doubt it is appropriate to simply bail out in this scenario. However, in general we must if at all possible never assume VMG state is stable after a merge attempt, since merge operations update VMG fields. As a result, additionally also make this clear by storing start, end in local variables. The issue was reported originally by syzkaller, and by Brad Spengler (via an off-list discussion), and in both instances it manifested as a triggering of the assert: VM_WARN_ON_VMG(start >= end, vmg); In vma_merge_existing_range(). It seems at least one scenario in which this is occurring is one in which the merge being attempted is due to an madvise() across multiple VMAs which looks like this: start end |<------>| |----------|------| | vma | next | |----------|------| When madvise_walk_vmas() is invoked, we first find vma in the above (determining prev to be equal to vma as we are offset into vma), and then enter the loop. We determine the end of vma that forms part of the range we are madvise()'ing by setting 'tmp' to this value: /* Here vma->vm_start <= start < (end|vma->vm_end) */ tmp = vma->vm_end; We then invoke the madvise() operation via visit(), letting prev get updated to point to vma as part of the operation: /* Here vma->vm_start <= start < tmp <= (end|vma->vm_end). */ error = visit(vma, &prev, start, tmp, arg); Where the visit() function pointer in this instance is madvise_vma_behavior(). As observed in syzkaller reports, it is ultimately madvise_update_vma() that is invoked, calling vma_modify_flags_name() and vma_modify() in turn. Then, in vma_modify(), we attempt the merge: merged = vma_merge_existing_range(vmg); if (merged) return merged; We invoke this with vmg->start, end set to start, tmp as such: start tmp |<--->| |----------|------| | vma | next | |----------|------| We find ourselves in the merge right scenario, but the one in which we cannot remove the middle (we are offset into vma). Here we have a special case where vmg->start, end get set to perhaps unintuitive values - we intended to shrink the middle VMA and expand the next. This means vmg->start, end are set to... vma->vm_start, start. Now the commit_merge() fails, and vmg->start, end are left like this. This means we return to the rest of vma_modify() with vmg->start, end (here denoted as start', end') set as: start' end' |<-->| |----------|------| | vma | next | |----------|------| So we now erroneously try to split accordingly. This is where the unfortunate stuff begins. We start with: /* Split any preceding portion of the VMA. */ if (vma->vm_start < vmg->start) { ... } This doesn't trigger as we are no longer offset into vma at the start. But then we invoke: /* Split any trailing portion of the VMA. */ if (vma->vm_end > vmg->end) { ... } Which does get invoked. This leaves us with: start' end' |<-->| |----|-----|------| | vma| new | next | |----|-----|------| We then return ultimately to madvise_walk_vmas(). Here 'new' is unknown, and putting back the values known in this function we are faced with: start tmp end | | | |----|-----|------| | vma| new | next | |----|-----|------| prev Then: start = tmp; So: start end | | |----|-----|------| | vma| new | next | |----|-----|------| prev The following code does not cause anything to happen: if (prev && start < prev->vm_end) start = prev->vm_end; if (start >= end) break; And then we invoke: if (prev) vma = find_vma(mm, prev->vm_end); Which is where a problem occurs - we don't know about 'new' so we essentially look for the vma after prev, which is new, whereas we actually intended to discover next! So we end up with: start end | | |----|-----|------| |prev| vma | next | |----|-----|------| And we have successfully bypassed all of the checks madvise_walk_vmas() has to ensure early exit should we end up moving out of range. We loop around, and hit: /* Here vma->vm_start <= start < (end|vma->vm_end) */ tmp = vma->vm_end; Oh dear. Now we have: tmp start end | | |----|-----|------| |prev| vma | next | |----|-----|------| We then invoke: /* Here vma->vm_start <= start < tmp <= (end|vma->vm_end). */ error = visit(vma, &prev, start, tmp, arg); Where start == tmp. That is, a zero range. This is not good. We invoke visit() which is madvise_vma_behavior() which does not check the range (for good reason, it assumes all checks have been done before it was called), which in turn finally calls madvise_update_vma(). The madvise_update_vma() function calls vma_modify_flags_name() in turn, which ultimately invokes vma_modify() with... start == end. vma_modify() calls vma_merge_existing_range() and finally we hit: VM_WARN_ON_VMG(start >= end, vmg); Which triggers, as start == end. While it might be useful to add some CONFIG_DEBUG_VM asserts in these instances to catch this kind of error, since we have just eliminated any possibility of that happening, we will add such asserts separately as to reduce churn and aid backporting.

2025-01-25mm/debug: prefer VM_WARN_ON_VMG() to report VMG debug warningsLorenzo Stoakes1-16/+17
Now we have VM_WARN_ON_VMG() to provide us with considerably more debug output when a debug assert fails, utilise it everywhere we can. This allows us to have considerably more information to go on when things go wrong, especially when a non-repro issue occurs as reported by syzkaller or the like.

2025-01-25mm: remove unnecessary calls to lru_add_drainRik van Riel1-2/+0
There seem to be several categories of calls to lru_add_drain and lru_add_drain_all. The first are code paths that recently allocated, swapped in, or otherwise processed a batch of pages, and want them all on the LRU. These drain pages that were recently allocated, probably on the local CPU. A second category are code paths that are actively trying to reclaim, migrate, or offline memory. These often use lru_add_drain_all, to drain the caches on all CPUs. However, there also seem to be some other callers where we aren't really doing either. They are calling lru_add_drain(), despite operating on pages that may have been allocated long ago, and quite possibly on different CPUs. Those calls are not likely to be effective at anything but creating lock contention on the LRU locks. Remove the lru_add_drain calls in the latter category. For detailed reasoning, see [1] and [2].

2025-01-13mm: enforce __must_check on VMA merge and splitLorenzo Stoakes1-3/+5
It is of critical importance to check the return results on VMA merge (and split), failure to do so can result in use-after-free's. This bug has recurred, so have the compiler enforce this check to prevent any future repetition.

2025-01-13mm/vma: move __vm_munmap() to mm/vma.cLorenzo Stoakes1-0/+18
This was arbitrarily left in mmap.c it makes no sense being there, move it to vma.c to render it testable.
