[PATCH] mm/userfaultfd: do not access vma->vm_mm after calling handle_userfault()

From: Gerald Schaefer
Date: Tue Nov 10 2020 - 14:04:01 EST


Alexander reported a syzkaller / KASAN finding on s390, see below for
complete output.

In do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page(), the pre-allocated pagetable will be freed
in some cases. In the case of userfaultfd_missing(), this will happen after
calling handle_userfault(), which might have released the mmap_lock.
Therefore, the following pte_free(vma->vm_mm, pgtable) will access an
unstable vma->vm_mm, which could have been freed or re-used already.

For all architectures other than s390 this will go w/o any negative impact,
because pte_free() simply frees the page and ignores the passed-in mm.
The implementation for SPARC32 would also access mm->page_table_lock for
pte_free(), but there is no THP support in SPARC32, so the buggy code path
will not be used there.

For s390, the mm->context.pgtable_list is being used to maintain the 2K
pagetable fragments, and operating on an already freed or even re-used
mm could result in various more or less subtle bugs due to list / pagetable
corruption.

Fix this by calling pte_free() before handle_userfault(), similar to how
it is already done in __do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page() for the WRITE /
non-huge_zero_page case.

Commit 6b251fc96cf2c ("userfaultfd: call handle_userfault() for
userfaultfd_missing() faults") actually introduced both, the
do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page() and also __do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page()
changes wrt to calling handle_userfault(), but only in the latter
case it put the pte_free() before calling handle_userfault().
