But of course that's a pretty minor thing. Indeed it feels wrong that so much work gets discarded. However, memory allocations can block, right? In the same time, our main objective here is to make sure that when a page fault happens, we fill in the page that VMA is intended to refer, and not one that was re-allocated. Therefore, I'm trying to avoid a situation where: 1. thread A checks mmap_active, finds it at zero and proceeds into the reallocation ioctl 2. thread A sleeps in get_free_page() 3. thread B runs mmap() and succeeds 4. thread A obtains its pages and proceeds to substitute the buffer 5. thread B (or any other) pagefaults and ends with the new, unexpected page The code is not pretty, but I don't see an alternative. Heck, I would love you to find more races if you can. -- Pete commit 5252eb4c8297fedbf1c5f1e67da44efe00e6ef6b Author: Pete Zaitcev <zaitcev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Nov 21 17:24:00 2019 -0600 usb: Fix a deadlock in usbmon between mmap and read Signed-off-by: Pete Zaitcev <zaitcev@xxxxxxxxxx> Reported-by: syzbot+56f9673bb4cdcbeb0e92@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx diff --git a/drivers/usb/mon/mon_bin.c b/drivers/usb/mon/mon_bin.c index ac2b4fcc265f..f48a23adbc35 100644 --- a/drivers/usb/mon/mon_bin.c +++ b/drivers/usb/mon/mon_bin.c @@ -1039,12 +1039,18 @@ static long mon_bin_ioctl(struct file *file, unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg mutex_lock(&rp->fetch_lock); spin_lock_irqsave(&rp->b_lock, flags); - mon_free_buff(rp->b_vec, rp->b_size/CHUNK_SIZE); - kfree(rp->b_vec); - rp->b_vec = vec; - rp->b_size = size; - rp->b_read = rp->b_in = rp->b_out = rp->b_cnt = 0; - rp->cnt_lost = 0; + if (rp->mmap_active) { + mon_free_buff(vec, size/CHUNK_SIZE); + kfree(vec); + ret = -EBUSY; + } else { + mon_free_buff(rp->b_vec, rp->b_size/CHUNK_SIZE); + kfree(rp->b_vec); + rp->b_vec = vec; + rp->b_size = size; + rp->b_read = rp->b_in = rp->b_out = rp->b_cnt = 0; + rp->cnt_lost = 0; + } spin_unlock_irqrestore(&rp->b_lock, flags); mutex_unlock(&rp->fetch_lock); } @@ -1216,13 +1222,21 @@ mon_bin_poll(struct file *file, struct poll_table_struct *wait) static void mon_bin_vma_open(struct vm_area_struct *vma) { struct mon_reader_bin *rp = vma->vm_private_data; + unsigned long flags; + + spin_lock_irqsave(&rp->b_lock, flags); rp->mmap_active++; + spin_unlock_irqrestore(&rp->b_lock, flags); } static void mon_bin_vma_close(struct vm_area_struct *vma) { + unsigned long flags; + struct mon_reader_bin *rp = vma->vm_private_data; + spin_lock_irqsave(&rp->b_lock, flags); rp->mmap_active--; + spin_unlock_irqrestore(&rp->b_lock, flags); } /* @@ -1234,16 +1248,12 @@ static vm_fault_t mon_bin_vma_fault(struct vm_fault *vmf) unsigned long offset, chunk_idx; struct page *pageptr; - mutex_lock(&rp->fetch_lock); offset = vmf->pgoff << PAGE_SHIFT; - if (offset >= rp->b_size) { - mutex_unlock(&rp->fetch_lock); + if (offset >= rp->b_size) return VM_FAULT_SIGBUS; - } chunk_idx = offset / CHUNK_SIZE; pageptr = rp->b_vec[chunk_idx].pg; get_page(pageptr); - mutex_unlock(&rp->fetch_lock); vmf->page = pageptr; return 0; }
