[PATCH] hugetlbfs: check for pgoff value overflow

From: Mike Kravetz
Date: Wed Mar 07 2018 - 18:59:49 EST


A vma with vm_pgoff large enough to overflow a loff_t type when
converted to a byte offset can be passed via the remap_file_pages
system call. The hugetlbfs mmap routine uses the byte offset to
calculate reservations and file size.

A sequence such as:
mmap(0x20a00000, 0x600000, 0, 0x66033, -1, 0);
remap_file_pages(0x20a00000, 0x600000, 0, 0x20000000000000, 0);
will result in the following when task exits/file closed,
kernel BUG at mm/hugetlb.c:749!
Call Trace:
hugetlbfs_evict_inode+0x2f/0x40
evict+0xcb/0x190
__dentry_kill+0xcb/0x150
__fput+0x164/0x1e0
task_work_run+0x84/0xa0
exit_to_usermode_loop+0x7d/0x80
do_syscall_64+0x18b/0x190
entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x3d/0xa2

The overflowed pgoff value causes hugetlbfs to try to set up a
mapping with a negative range (end < start) that leaves invalid
state which causes the BUG.
