Fix bugs in the interfaces that allow the underlying memory object of an iova range to be mapped in a new address space. They allow userland to indefinitely block vfio mediated device kernel threads, and do not propagate the locked_vm count to a new mm. Also fix a pre-existing bug that allows locked_vm underflow. The fixes impose restrictions that eliminate waiting conditions, so revert the dead code: commit 898b9eaeb3fe ("vfio/type1: block on invalid vaddr") commit 487ace134053 ("vfio/type1: implement notify callback") commit ec5e32940cc9 ("vfio: iommu driver notify callback") Changes in V2 (thanks Alex): * do not allow group attach while vaddrs are invalid * add patches to delete dead code * add WARN_ON for never-should-happen conditions * check for changed mm in unmap. * check for vfio_lock_acct failure in remap Changes in V3 (ditto!): * return errno at WARN_ON sites, and make it unique * correctly check for dma task mm change * change dma owner to current when vaddr is updated * add Fixes to commit messages * refactored new code in vfio_dma_do_map Changes in V4: * misc cosmetic changes Changes in V5 (thanks Jason and Kevin): * grab mm and use it for locked_vm accounting * separate patches for underflow and restoring locked_vm * account for reserved pages * improve error messages Changes in V6: * drop "count reserved pages" patch * add "track locked_vm" patch * grab current->mm not group_leader->mm * simplify vfio_change_dma_owner * fix commit messages Changes in v7: * compare current->mm not group_leader->mm (missed one) * misc cosmetic changes Changes in v8: * updated group_leader comment in vfio_dma_do_map * delete async arg from mm_lock_acct * pass async=false to vfio_lock_acct in vfio_pin_page_external * locked_vm becomes size_t * improved commit message in "restore locked_vm" * simplified flow in vfio_change_dma_owner * rebase to v6.2-rc6 Steve Sistare (7): vfio/type1: exclude mdevs from VFIO_UPDATE_VADDR vfio/type1: prevent underflow of locked_vm via exec() vfio/type1: track locked_vm per dma vfio/type1: restore locked_vm vfio/type1: revert "block on invalid vaddr" vfio/type1: revert "implement notify callback" vfio: revert "iommu driver notify callback" drivers/vfio/container.c | 5 - drivers/vfio/vfio.h | 7 -- drivers/vfio/vfio_iommu_type1.c | 248 ++++++++++++++++++---------------------- include/uapi/linux/vfio.h | 15 ++- 4 files changed, 120 insertions(+), 155 deletions(-) -- 1.8.3.1
