[PATCH] KVM: Harden against unpaired kvm_mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end() calls
From: Sean Christopherson
Date: Tue Jan 09 2024 - 19:42:57 EST
When handling the end of an mmu_notifier invalidation, WARN if
mn_active_invalidate_count is already 0 do not decrement it further, i.e.
avoid causing mn_active_invalidate_count to underflow/wrap. In the worst
case scenario, effectively corrupting mn_active_invalidate_count could
cause kvm_swap_active_memslots() to hang indefinitely.
end() calls are *supposed* to be paired with start(), i.e. underflow can
only happen if there is a bug elsewhere in the kernel, but due to lack of
lockdep assertions in the mmu_notifier helpers, it's all too easy for a
bug to go unnoticed for some time, e.g. see the recently introduced
PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl().
Ideally, mmu_notifiers would incorporate lockdep assertions, but users of
mmu_notifiers aren't required to hold any one specific lock, i.e. adding
the necessary annotations to make lockdep aware of all locks that are
mutally exclusive with mm_take_all_locks() isn't trivial.
