The patch titled Subject: mremap: fix the wrong !vma->vm_file check in copy_vma() has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is mremap-fix-the-wrong-vma-vm_file-check-in-copy_vma.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/mremap-fix-the-wrong-vma-vm_file-check-in-copy_vma.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/mremap-fix-the-wrong-vma-vm_file-check-in-copy_vma.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mremap: fix the wrong !vma->vm_file check in copy_vma() Test-case: #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <stdio.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <string.h> #include <sys/mman.h> #include <assert.h> void *find_vdso_vaddr(void) { FILE *perl; char buf[32] = {}; perl = popen("perl -e 'open STDIN,qq|/proc/@{[getppid]}/maps|;" "/^(.*?)-.*vdso/ && print hex $1 while <>'", "r"); fread(buf, sizeof(buf), 1, perl); fclose(perl); return (void *)atol(buf); } #define PAGE_SIZE 4096 void *get_unmapped_area(void) { void *p = mmap(0, PAGE_SIZE, PROT_NONE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1,0); assert(p != MAP_FAILED); munmap(p, PAGE_SIZE); return p; } char save[2][PAGE_SIZE]; int main(void) { void *vdso = find_vdso_vaddr(); void *page[2]; assert(vdso); memcpy(save, vdso, sizeof (save)); // force another fault on the next check assert(madvise(vdso, 2 * PAGE_SIZE, MADV_DONTNEED) == 0); page[0] = mremap(vdso, PAGE_SIZE, PAGE_SIZE, MREMAP_FIXED | MREMAP_MAYMOVE, get_unmapped_area()); page[1] = mremap(vdso + PAGE_SIZE, PAGE_SIZE, PAGE_SIZE, MREMAP_FIXED | MREMAP_MAYMOVE, get_unmapped_area()); assert(page[0] != MAP_FAILED && page[1] != MAP_FAILED); printf("match: %d %d\n", !memcmp(save[0], page[0], PAGE_SIZE), !memcmp(save[1], page[1], PAGE_SIZE)); return 0; } fails without this patch. Before the previous commit it gets the wrong page, now it segfaults (which is imho better). This is because copy_vma() wrongly assumes that if vma->vm_file == NULL is irrelevant until the first fault which will use do_anonymous_page(). This is obviously wrong for the special mapping.
