Make sure to return a proper negative error code from copy_process()
when anon_inode_getfile() fails with CLONE_PIDFD.
Otherwise _do_fork() will not detect an error and get_task_pid() will
operator on a nonsensical pointer:

Commit 5eed6f1dff87 ("fork,memcg: fix crash in free_thread_stack on
memcg charge fail") corrected two instances, but there was a third
instance of this bug.
Without setting tsk->stack, if memcg_charge_kernel_stack fails, it'll
execute free_thread_stack() on a dangling pointer.
Enterprise kernels are compiled with VMAP_STACK=y so this isn't
critical, but custom VMAP_STACK=n builds should have some performance
advantage, with the drawback of risking to fail fork because compaction
didn't succeed. So as long as VMAP_STACK=n is a supported option it's
worth fixing it upstream.

anon_inode_getfd() should be used *ONLY* in situations when we are
guaranteed to be past the last failure point (including copying the
descriptor number to userland, at that). And ksys_close() should
not be used for cleanups at all.
anon_inode_getfile() is there for all nontrivial cases like that.
Just use that...

Give userspace a cheap and reliable way to tell whether CLONE_PIDFD is
supported by the kernel or not. The easiest way is to pass an invalid
file descriptor value in parent_tidptr, perform the syscall and verify
that parent_tidptr has been changed to a valid file descriptor value.
CLONE_PIDFD uses parent_tidptr to return pidfds. CLONE_PARENT_SETTID
will use parent_tidptr to return the tid of the parent. The two flags
cannot be used together. Old kernels that only support
CLONE_PARENT_SETTID will not verify the value pointed to by
parent_tidptr. This behavior is unchanged even with the introduction of
CLONE_PIDFD.
However, if CLONE_PIDFD is specified the kernel will currently check the
value pointed to by parent_tidptr before placing the pidfd in the memory
pointed to. EINVAL will be returned if the value in parent_tidptr is not
0.
If CLONE_PIDFD is supported and fd 0 is closed, then the returned pidfd
can and likely will be 0 and parent_tidptr will be unchanged. This means
userspace must either check CLONE_PIDFD support beforehand or check that
fd 0 is not closed when invoking CLONE_PIDFD.
The check for pidfd == 0 was introduced during the v5.2 merge window by
commit b3e583825266 ("clone: add CLONE_PIDFD") to ensure that
CLONE_PIDFD could be potentially extended by passing in flags through
the return argument.
However, that extension would look horrible, and with the upcoming
introduction of the clone3 syscall in v5.3 there is no need to extend
legacy clone syscall this way. (Even if it would need to be extended,
CLONE_DETACHED can be reused with CLONE_PIDFD.)
So remove the pidfd == 0 check. Userspace that needs to be portable to
kernels without CLONE_PIDFD support can then be advised to initialize
pidfd to -1 and check the pidfd value returned by CLONE_PIDFD.

The task structure is freed while get_mem_cgroup_from_mm() holds
rcu_read_lock() and dereferences mm->owner.
get_mem_cgroup_from_mm() failing fork()
---- ---
task = mm->owner
mm->owner = NULL;
free(task)
if (task) *task; /* use after free */
The fix consists in freeing the task with RCU also in the fork failure
case, exactly like it always happens for the regular exit(2) path. That
is enough to make the rcu_read_lock hold in get_mem_cgroup_from_mm()
(left side above) effective to avoid a use after free when dereferencing
the task structure.
An alternate possible fix would be to defer the delivery of the
userfaultfd contexts to the monitor until after fork() is guaranteed to
succeed. Such a change would require more changes because it would
create a strict ordering dependency where the uffd methods would need to
be called beyond the last potentially failing branch in order to be
safe. This solution as opposed only adds the dependency to common code
to set mm->owner to NULL and to free the task struct that was pointed by
mm->owner with RCU, if fork ends up failing. The userfaultfd methods
can still be called anywhere during the fork runtime and the monitor
will keep discarding orphaned "mm" coming from failed forks in userland.
This race condition couldn't trigger if CONFIG_MEMCG was set =n at build
time.

Avoid calling cgroup_threadgroup_change_end() without having called
cgroup_threadgroup_change_begin() first.
During process creation we need to check whether the cgroup we are in
allows us to fork. To perform this check the cgroup needs to guard itself
against threadgroup changes and takes a lock.
Prior to CLONE_PIDFD the cleanup target "bad_fork_free_pid" would also need
to call cgroup_threadgroup_change_end() because said lock had already been
taken.
However, this is not the case anymore with the addition of CLONE_PIDFD. We
are now allocating a pidfd before we check whether the cgroup we're in can
fork and thus prior to taking the lock. So when copy_process() fails at the
right step it would release a lock we haven't taken.
This bug is not even very subtle to be honest. It's just not very clear
from the naming of cgroup_threadgroup_change_{begin,end}() that a lock is
taken.
Here's the relevant splat:

"This patchset makes it possible to retrieve pidfds at process creation
time by introducing the new flag CLONE_PIDFD to the clone() system
call. Linus originally suggested to implement this as a new flag to
clone() instead of making it a separate system call.
After a thorough review from Oleg CLONE_PIDFD returns pidfds in the
parent_tidptr argument. This means we can give back the associated pid
and the pidfd at the same time. Access to process metadata information
thus becomes rather trivial.
As has been agreed, CLONE_PIDFD creates file descriptors based on
anonymous inodes similar to the new mount api. They are made
unconditional by this patchset as they are now needed by core kernel
code (vfs, pidfd) even more than they already were before (timerfd,
signalfd, io_uring, epoll etc.). The core patchset is rather small.
The bulky looking changelist is caused by David's very simple changes
to Kconfig to make anon inodes unconditional.
A pidfd comes with additional information in fdinfo if the kernel
supports procfs. The fdinfo file contains the pid of the process in
the callers pid namespace in the same format as the procfs status
file, i.e. "Pid:\t%d".
To remove worries about missing metadata access this patchset comes
with a sample/test program that illustrates how a combination of
CLONE_PIDFD and pidfd_send_signal() can be used to gain race-free
access to process metadata through /proc/<pid>.
Further work based on this patchset has been done by Joel. His work
makes pidfds pollable. It finished too late for this merge window. I
would prefer to have it sitting in linux-next for a while and send it
for inclusion during the 5.3 merge window"

This patchset makes it possible to retrieve pid file descriptors at
process creation time by introducing the new flag CLONE_PIDFD to the
clone() system call. Linus originally suggested to implement this as a
new flag to clone() instead of making it a separate system call. As
spotted by Linus, there is exactly one bit for clone() left.
CLONE_PIDFD creates file descriptors based on the anonymous inode
implementation in the kernel that will also be used to implement the new
mount api. They serve as a simple opaque handle on pids. Logically,
this makes it possible to interpret a pidfd differently, narrowing or
widening the scope of various operations (e.g. signal sending). Thus, a
pidfd cannot just refer to a tgid, but also a tid, or in theory - given
appropriate flag arguments in relevant syscalls - a process group or
session. A pidfd does not represent a privilege. This does not imply it
cannot ever be that way but for now this is not the case.
A pidfd comes with additional information in fdinfo if the kernel supports
procfs. The fdinfo file contains the pid of the process in the callers
pid namespace in the same format as the procfs status file, i.e. "Pid:\t%d".
As suggested by Oleg, with CLONE_PIDFD the pidfd is returned in the
parent_tidptr argument of clone. This has the advantage that we can
give back the associated pid and the pidfd at the same time.
To remove worries about missing metadata access this patchset comes with
a sample program that illustrates how a combination of CLONE_PIDFD, and
pidfd_send_signal() can be used to gain race-free access to process
metadata through /proc/<pid>. The sample program can easily be
translated into a helper that would be suitable for inclusion in libc so
that users don't have to worry about writing it themselves.

In order to have a separate address space for text poking, we need to
duplicate init_mm early during start_kernel(). This, however, introduces
a problem since uprobes functions are called from dup_mmap(), but
uprobes is still not initialized in this early stage.
Since uprobes initialization is necassary for fork, and since all the
dependant initialization has been done when fork is initialized (percpu
and vmalloc), move uprobes initialization to fork_init(). It does not
seem uprobes introduces any security problem for the poking_mm.
Crash and burn if uprobes initialization fails, similarly to other early
initializations. Change the init_probes() name to probes_init() to match
other early initialization functions name convention.

Cgroup v1 implements the freezer controller, which provides an ability
to stop the workload in a cgroup and temporarily free up some
resources (cpu, io, network bandwidth and, potentially, memory)
for some other tasks. Cgroup v2 lacks this functionality.
This patch implements freezer for cgroup v2.
Cgroup v2 freezer tries to put tasks into a state similar to jobctl
stop. This means that tasks can be killed, ptraced (using
PTRACE_SEIZE*), and interrupted. It is possible to attach to
a frozen task, get some information (e.g. read registers) and detach.
It's also possible to migrate a frozen tasks to another cgroup.
This differs cgroup v2 freezer from cgroup v1 freezer, which mostly
tried to imitate the system-wide freezer. However uninterruptible
sleep is fine when all tasks are going to be frozen (hibernation case),
it's not the acceptable state for some subset of the system.
Cgroup v2 freezer is not supporting freezing kthreads.
If a non-root cgroup contains kthread, the cgroup still can be frozen,
but the kthread will remain running, the cgroup will be shown
as non-frozen, and the notification will not be delivered.
* PTRACE_ATTACH is not working because non-fatal signal delivery
is blocked in frozen state.
There are some interface differences between cgroup v1 and cgroup v2
freezer too, which are required to conform the cgroup v2 interface
design principles:
1) There is no separate controller, which has to be turned on:
the functionality is always available and is represented by
cgroup.freeze and cgroup.events cgroup control files.
2) The desired state is defined by the cgroup.freeze control file.
Any hierarchical configuration is allowed.
3) The interface is asynchronous. The actual state is available
using cgroup.events control file ("frozen" field). There are no
dedicated transitional states.
4) It's allowed to make any changes with the cgroup hierarchy
(create new cgroups, remove old cgroups, move tasks between cgroups)
no matter if some cgroups are frozen.

Taking a sleeping lock to _only_ increment a variable is quite the
overkill, and pretty much all users do this. Furthermore, some drivers
(ie: infiniband and scif) that need pinned semantics can go to quite
some trouble to actually delay via workqueue (un)accounting for pinned
pages when not possible to acquire it.
By making the counter atomic we no longer need to hold the mmap_sem and
can simply some code around it for pinned_vm users. The counter is 64-bit
such that we need not worry about overflows such as rdma user input
controlled from userspace.

atomic_t variables are currently used to implement reference
counters with the following properties:
- counter is initialized to 1 using atomic_set()
- a resource is freed upon counter reaching zero
- once counter reaches zero, its further
increments aren't allowed
- counter schema uses basic atomic operations
(set, inc, inc_not_zero, dec_and_test, etc.)
Such atomic variables should be converted to a newly provided
refcount_t type and API that prevents accidental counter overflows
and underflows. This is important since overflows and underflows
can lead to use-after-free situation and be exploitable.
The variable task_struct.stack_refcount is used as pure reference counter.
Convert it to refcount_t and fix up the operations.
** Important note for maintainers:
Some functions from refcount_t API defined in lib/refcount.c
have different memory ordering guarantees than their atomic
counterparts.
The full comparison can be seen in
https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/15/57 and it is hopefully soon
in state to be merged to the documentation tree.
Normally the differences should not matter since refcount_t provides
enough guarantees to satisfy the refcounting use cases, but in
some rare cases it might matter.
Please double check that you don't have some undocumented
memory guarantees for this variable usage.
For the task_struct.stack_refcount it might make a difference
in following places:
- try_get_task_stack(): increment in refcount_inc_not_zero() only
guarantees control dependency on success vs. fully ordered
atomic counterpart
- put_task_stack(): decrement in refcount_dec_and_test() only
provides RELEASE ordering and control dependency on success
vs. fully ordered atomic counterpart

Commit 5eed6f1dff87 ("fork,memcg: fix crash in free_thread_stack on

the kernel stack. However the fix misses the cached_stacks case which
this patch fixes. So, the same crash can happen if the memcg charge of
a cached stack is failed.

This changes the fork(2) syscall to record the process start_time after
initializing the basic task structure but still before making the new
process visible to user-space.
Technically, we could record the start_time anytime during fork(2). But
this might lead to scenarios where a start_time is recorded long before
a process becomes visible to user-space. For instance, with
userfaultfd(2) and TLS, user-space can delay the execution of fork(2)
for an indefinite amount of time (and will, if this causes network
access, or similar).
By recording the start_time late, it much closer reflects the point in
time where the process becomes live and can be observed by other
processes.
Lastly, this makes it much harder for user-space to predict and control
the start_time they get assigned. Previously, user-space could fork a
process and stall it in copy_thread_tls() before its pid is allocated,
but after its start_time is recorded. This can be misused to later-on
cycle through PIDs and resume the stalled fork(2) yielding a process
that has the same pid and start_time as a process that existed before.
This can be used to circumvent security systems that identify processes
by their pid+start_time combination.
Even though user-space was always aware that start_time recording is
flaky (but several projects are known to still rely on start_time-based
identification), changing the start_time to be recorded late will help
mitigate existing attacks and make it much harder for user-space to
control the start_time a process gets assigned.

value might lead to a different value and as such it could lead to
unexpected behavior. There are no known bugs as a result of the current
code but it is better to prevent from them in principle.

Commit 9b6f7e163cd0 ("mm: rework memcg kernel stack accounting") will
result in fork failing if allocating a kernel stack for a task in
dup_task_struct exceeds the kernel memory allowance for that cgroup.
Unfortunately, it also results in a crash.
This is due to the code jumping to free_stack and calling
free_thread_stack when the memcg kernel stack charge fails, but without
tsk->stack pointing at the freshly allocated stack.
This in turn results in the vfree_atomic in free_thread_stack oopsing
with a backtrace like this:
#5 [ffffc900244efc88] die at ffffffff8101f0ab
#6 [ffffc900244efcb8] do_general_protection at ffffffff810 |
