[PATCH rdma-next 0/6] BAR mappings fixes in RDMA

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

>From Jason,

Upon review it turns out there are some long standing problems in BAR
mapping area:
 * BAR pages are being allowed to be executable.
 * BAR pages intended for read-only can be switched to writable via mprotect.
 * Missing use of rdma_user_mmap_io for the mlx5 clock BAR page.
 * Disassociate causes SIGBUS when touching the pages.
 * CPU pages are being mapped through to the process via remap_pfn_range
   instead of the more appropriate vm_insert_page, causing weird behaviors
   during disassociation.

This series adds the missing VM_* flag manipulation, adds faulting a zero
page for disassociation and revises the CPU page mappings to use vm_insert_page.

Thanks

Jason Gunthorpe (6):
  RDMA/mlx5: Do not allow the user to write to the clock page
  RDMA/mlx5: Use rdma_user_map_io for mapping BAR pages
  RDMA/ucontext: Do not allow BAR mappings to be executable
  RDMA/ucontext: Fix regression with disassociate
  RDMA/mlx5: Use get_zeroed_page() for clock_info
  RDMA: Remove rdma_user_mmap_page
