[PATCH v1 1/2] mm/hugetlb: fix PTE marker handling in hugetlb_change_protection()

From: David Hildenbrand
Date: Thu Dec 22 2022 - 15:56:10 EST


There are two problematic cases when stumbling over a PTE marker in
hugetlb_change_protection():

(1) We protect an uffd-wp PTE marker a second time using uffd-wp: we will
end up in the "!huge_pte_none(pte)" case and mess up the PTE marker.

(2) We unprotect a uffd-wp PTE marker: we will similarly end up in the
"!huge_pte_none(pte)" case even though we cleared the PTE, because
the "pte" variable is stale. We'll mess up the PTE marker.

For example, if we later stumble over such a "wrongly modified" PTE marker,
we'll treat it like a present PTE that maps some garbage page.

This can, for example, be triggered by mapping a memfd backed by huge
pages, registering uffd-wp, uffd-wp'ing an unmapped page and (a)
uffd-wp'ing it a second time; or (b) uffd-unprotecting it; or (c)
unregistering uffd-wp. Then, ff we trigger fallocate(FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE)
on that file range, we will run into a VM_BUG_ON:

Fix it by not going into the "!huge_pte_none(pte)" case if we stumble
over an exclusive marker. spin_unlock() + continue would get the job
done.

However, instead, make it clearer that there are no fall-through
statements: we process each case (hwpoison, migration, marker, !none, none)
and then unlock the page table to continue with the next PTE. Let's
avoid "continue" statements and use a single spin_unlock() at the end.
