2025-11-16mm: add ability to take further action in vm_area_descLorenzo Stoakes1-11/+135
Some drivers/filesystems need to perform additional tasks after the VMA is set up. This is typically in the form of pre-population. The forms of pre-population most likely to be performed are a PFN remap or the insertion of normal folios and PFNs into a mixed map. We start by implementing the PFN remap functionality, ensuring that we perform the appropriate actions at the appropriate time - that is setting flags at the point of .mmap_prepare, and performing the actual remap at the point at which the VMA is fully established. This prevents the driver from doing anything too crazy with a VMA at any stage, and we retain complete control over how the mm functionality is applied. Unfortunately callers still do often require some kind of custom action, so we add an optional success/error _hook to allow the caller to do something after the action has succeeded or failed. This is done at the point when the VMA has already been established, so the harm that can be done is limited. The error hook can be used to filter errors if necessary. There may be cases in which the caller absolutely must hold the file rmap lock until the operation is entirely complete. It is an edge case, but certainly the hugetlbfs mmap hook requires it. To accommodate this, we add the hide_from_rmap_until_complete flag to the mmap_action type. In this case, if a new VMA is allocated, we will hold the file rmap lock until the operation is entirely completed (including any success/error hooks). Note that we do not need to update __compat_vma_mmap() to accommodate this flag, as this function will be invoked from an .mmap handler whose VMA is not yet visible, so we implicitly hide it from the rmap. If any error arises on these final actions, we simply unmap the VMA altogether. Also update the stacked filesystem compatibility layer to utilise the action behaviour, and update the VMA tests accordingly. While we're here, rename __compat_vma_mmap_prepare() to __compat_vma_mmap() as we are now performing actions invoked by the mmap_prepare in addition to just the mmap_prepare hook.

2025-10-07fsnotify: pass correct offset to fsnotify_mmap_perm()Ryan Roberts1-1/+2
fsnotify_mmap_perm() requires a byte offset for the file about to be mmap'ed. But it is called from vm_mmap_pgoff(), which has a page offset. Previously the conversion was done incorrectly so let's fix it, being careful not to overflow on 32-bit platforms. Discovered during code review.

2025-09-22mm: do not assume file == vma->vm_file in compat_vma_mmap_prepare()Lorenzo Stoakes1-23/+39
In commit bb666b7c2707 ("mm: add mmap_prepare() compatibility layer for nested file systems") we introduced the ability for stacked drivers and file systems to correctly invoke the f_op->mmap_prepare() handler from an f_op->mmap() handler via a compatibility layer implemented in compat_vma_mmap_prepare(). This populates vm_area_desc fields according to those found in the (not yet fully initialised) VMA passed to f_op->mmap(). However this function implicitly assumes that the struct file which we are operating upon is equal to vma->vm_file. This is not a safe assumption in all cases. The only really sane situation in which this matters would be something like e.g. i915_gem_dmabuf_mmap() which invokes vfs_mmap() against obj->base.filp: ret = vfs_mmap(obj->base.filp, vma); if (ret) return ret; And then sets the VMA's file to this, should the mmap operation succeed: vma_set_file(vma, obj->base.filp); That is - it is the file that is intended to back the VMA mapping. This is not an issue currently, as so far we have only implemented f_op->mmap_prepare() handlers for some file systems and internal mm uses, and the only stacked f_op->mmap() operations that can be performed upon these are those in backing_file_mmap() and coda_file_mmap(), both of which use vma->vm_file. However, moving forward, as we convert drivers to using f_op->mmap_prepare(), this will become a problem. Resolve this issue by explicitly setting desc->file to the provided file parameter and update callers accordingly. Callers are expected to read desc->file and update desc->vm_file - the former will be the file provided by the caller (if stacked, this may differ from vma->vm_file). If the caller needs to differentiate between the two they therefore now can. While we are here, also provide a variant of compat_vma_mmap_prepare() that operates against a pointer to any file_operations struct and does not assume that the file_operations struct we are interested in is file->f_op. This function is __compat_vma_mmap_prepare() and we invoke it from compat_vma_mmap_prepare() so that we share code between the two functions. This is important, because some drivers provide hooks in a separate struct, for instance struct drm_device provides an fops field for this purpose. Also update the VMA selftests accordingly.

2025-09-22mm: specify separate file and vm_file params in vm_area_descLorenzo Stoakes1-2/+12
Patch series "mm: do not assume file == vma->vm_file in compat_vma_mmap_prepare()", v2. As part of the efforts to eliminate the problematic f_op->mmap callback, a new callback - f_op->mmap_prepare was provided. While we are converting these callbacks, we must deal with 'stacked' filesystems and drivers - those which in their own f_op->mmap callback invoke an inner f_op->mmap callback. To accomodate for this, a compatibility layer is provided that, via vfs_mmap(), detects if f_op->mmap_prepare is provided and if so, generates a vm_area_desc containing the VMA's metadata and invokes the call. So far, we have provided desc->file equal to vma->vm_file. However this is not necessarily valid, especially in the case of stacked drivers which wish to assign a new file after the inner hook is invoked. To account for this, we adjust vm_area_desc to have both file and vm_file fields. The .vm_file field is strictly set to vma->vm_file (or in the case of a new mapping, what will become vma->vm_file). However, .file is set to whichever file vfs_mmap() is invoked with when using the compatibilty layer. Therefore, if the VMA's file needs to be updated in .mmap_prepare, desc->vm_file should be assigned, whilst desc->file should be read. No current f_op->mmap_prepare users assign desc->file so this is safe to do. This makes the .mmap_prepare callback in the context of a stacked filesystem or driver completely consistent with the existing .mmap implementations. While we're here, we do a few small cleanups, and ensure that we const-ify things correctly in the vm_area_desc struct to avoid hooks accidentally trying to assign fields they should not. This patch (of 2): Stacked filesystems and drivers may invoke mmap hooks with a struct file pointer that differs from the overlying file. We will make this functionality possible in a subsequent patch. In order to prepare for this, let's update vm_area_struct to separately provide desc->file and desc->vm_file parameters. The desc->file parameter is the file that the hook is expected to operate upon, and is not assignable (though the hok may wish to e.g. update the file's accessed time for instance). The desc->vm_file defaults to what will become vma->vm_file and is what the hook must reassign should it wish to change the VMA"s vma->vm_file. For now we keep desc->file, vm_file the same to remain consistent. No f_op->mmap_prepare() callback sets a new vma->vm_file currently, so this is safe to change. While we're here, make the mm_struct desc->mm pointers at immutable as well as the desc->mm field itself. As part of this change, also update the single hook which this would otherwise break - mlock_future_ok(), invoked by secretmem_mmap_prepare()). We additionally update set_vma_from_desc() to compare fields in a more logical fashion, checking the (possibly) user-modified fields as the first operand against the existing value as the second one. Additionally, update VMA tests to accommodate changes.

2025-09-21scatterlist: disallow non-contigous page ranges in a single SG entryDavid Hildenbrand1-0/+1
The expectation is that there is currently no user that would pass in non-contigous page ranges: no allocator, not even VMA, will hand these out. The only problematic part would be if someone would provide a range obtained directly from memblock, or manually merge problematic ranges. If we find such cases, we should fix them to create separate SG entries. Let's check in sg_set_page() that this is really the case. No need to check in sg_set_folio(), as pages in a folio are guaranteed to be contiguous. As sg_set_page() gets inlined into modules, we have to export the page_range_contiguous() helper -- use EXPORT_SYMBOL, there is nothing special about this helper such that we would want to enforce GPL-only modules. We can now drop the nth_page() usage in sg_page_iter_page().

Let's disallow handing out PFN ranges with non-contiguous pages, so we can remove the nth-page usage in __cma_alloc(), and so any callers don't have to worry about that either when wanting to blindly iterate pages. This is really only a problem in configs with SPARSEMEM but without SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP, and only when we would cross memory sections in some cases. Will this cause harm? Probably not, because it's mostly 32bit that does not support SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP. If this ever becomes a problem we could look into allocating the memmap for the memory sections spanned by a single CMA region in one go from memblock.

2025-07-24mm/util: introduce snapshot_page()Luiz Capitulino1-0/+81
This commit refactors __dump_page() into snapshot_page(). snapshot_page() tries to take a faithful snapshot of a page and its folio representation. The snapshot is returned in the struct page_snapshot parameter along with additional flags that are best retrieved at snapshot creation time to reduce race windows. This function is intended to be used by callers that need a stable representation of a struct page and struct folio so that pointers or page information doesn't change while working on a page. The idea and original implementation of snapshot_page() comes from Matthew Wilcox with suggestions for improvements from David Hildenbrand. All bugs and misconceptions are mine.

2025-07-19mm: remove boolean output parameters from folio_pte_batch_ext()David Hildenbrand1-1/+1
Instead, let's just allow for specifying through flags whether we want to have bits merged into the original PTE. For the madvise() case, simplify by having only a single parameter for merging young+dirty. For madvise_cold_or_pageout_pte_range() merging the dirty bit is not required, but also not harmful.

2025-07-19mm: split folio_pte_batch() into folio_pte_batch() and folio_pte_batch_flags()David Hildenbrand1-0/+29
Many users (including upcoming ones) don't really need the flags etc, and can live with the possible overhead of a function call. So let's provide a basic, non-inlined folio_pte_batch(), to avoid code bloat while still providing a variant that optimizes out all flag checks at runtime. folio_pte_batch_flags() will get inlined into folio_pte_batch(), optimizing out any conditionals that depend on input flags. folio_pte_batch() will behave like folio_pte_batch_flags() when no flags are specified. It's okay to add new users of folio_pte_batch_flags(), but using folio_pte_batch() if applicable is preferred. So, before this change, folio_pte_batch() was inlined into the C file optimized by propagating constants within the resulting object file. With this change, we now also have a folio_pte_batch() that is optimized by propagating all constants. But instead of having one instance per object file, we have a single shared one. In zap_present_ptes(), where we care about performance, the compiler already seem to generate a call to a common inlined folio_pte_batch() variant, shared with fork() code. So calling the new non-inlined variant should not make a difference. While at it, drop the "addr" parameter that is unused.

2025-06-12mm: add mmap_prepare() compatibility layer for nested file systemsLorenzo Stoakes1-0/+40
Nested file systems, that is those which invoke call_mmap() within their own f_op->mmap() handlers, may encounter underlying file systems which provide the f_op->mmap_prepare() hook introduced by commit c84bf6dd2b83 ("mm: introduce new .mmap_prepare() file callback"). We have a chicken-and-egg scenario here - until all file systems are converted to using .mmap_prepare(), we cannot convert these nested handlers, as we can't call f_op->mmap from an .mmap_prepare() hook. So we have to do it the other way round - invoke the .mmap_prepare() hook from an .mmap() one. in order to do so, we need to convert VMA state into a struct vm_area_desc descriptor, invoking the underlying file system's f_op->mmap_prepare() callback passing a pointer to this, and then setting VMA state accordingly and safely. This patch achieves this via the compat_vma_mmap_prepare() function, which we invoke from call_mmap() if f_op->mmap_prepare() is specified in the passed in file pointer. We place the fundamental logic into mm/vma.h where VMA manipulation belongs. We also update the VMA userland tests to accommodate the changes. The compat_vma_mmap_prepare() function and its associated machinery is temporary, and will be removed once the conversion of file systems is complete. We carefully place this code so it can be used with CONFIG_MMU and also with cutting edge nommu silicon.

2025-03-12fsnotify: add pre-content hooks on mmap()Amir Goldstein1-0/+3
Pre-content hooks in page faults introduces potential deadlock of HSM handler in userspace with filesystem freezing. The requirement with pre-content event is that for every accessed file range an event covering at least this range will be generated at least once before the file data is accesses. In preparation to disabling pre-content event hooks on page faults, add pre-content hooks at mmap() variants for the entire mmaped range, so HSM can fill content when user requests to map a portion of the file. Note that exec() variant also calls vm_mmap_pgoff() internally to map code sections, so pre-content hooks are also generated in this case.

2024-11-05mm/util: fix possible race condition in kstrdup()Yafang Shao1-1/+8
In kstrdup(), it is critical to ensure that the dest string is always NUL-terminated. However, potential race condition can occur between a writer and a reader. Consider the following scenario involving task->comm: reader writer len = strlen(s) + 1; strlcpy(tsk->comm, buf, sizeof(tsk->comm)); memcpy(buf, s, len); In this case, there is a race condition between the reader and the writer. The reader calculates the length of the string `s` based on the old value of task->comm. However, during the memcpy(), the string `s` might be updated by the writer to a new value of task->comm. If the new task->comm is larger than the old one, the `buf` might not be NUL-terminated. This can lead to undefined behavior and potential security vulnerabilities. Let's fix it by explicitly adding a NUL terminator after the memcpy. It is worth noting that memcpy() is not atomic, so the new string can be shorter when memcpy() already copied past the new NUL.

2024-09-01mm: only enforce minimum stack gap size if it's sensibleDavid Gow1-1/+1
The generic mmap_base code tries to leave a gap between the top of the stack and the mmap base address, but enforces a minimum gap size (MIN_GAP) of 128MB, which is too large on some setups. In particular, on arm tasks without ADDR_LIMIT_32BIT, the STACK_TOP value is less than 128MB, so it's impossible to fit such a gap in. Only enforce this minimum if MIN_GAP < MAX_GAP, as we'd prefer to honour MAX_GAP, which is defined proportionally, so scales better and always leaves us with both _some_ stack space and some room for mmap. This fixes the usercopy KUnit test suite on 32-bit arm, as it doesn't set any personality flags so gets the default (in this case 26-bit) task size.
