Subject: [PATCH RFP-V4 09/13] RFP prot support: use FAULT_SIGSEGV for protection checking
From: Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso <blaisorblade@...oo.it>, Ingo Molnar <mingo@...e.hu>
This is the more intrusive patch, but it couldn't be reduced a lot, not even if
I limited the protection support to the bare minimum for Uml (and thus I left
the interface generic).
The arch handler used to check itself protection, now we must possibly move
that to the generic VM if the VMA is non-uniform, since vma protections are
totally unreliable in that case when a pte_file PTE has been set or a page is
installed.
So, we change the prototype of __handle_mm_fault() to inform it of the access
kind, so it does protection checking. handle_mm_fault() keeps its API, but has
the new VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV return value.
=== Issue 1 (trivial changes to do in every arch):
This value should be handled in every arch-specific fault handlers.
But we can get spurious BUG/oom killings only when the new functionality is
used.
=== Issue 2 (solved afterwards):
* Another problem I've just discovered is that PTRACE_POKETEXT access_process_vm
on VM_MANYPROTS write-protected vma's won't work. This is handled in a
specific patch.
=== Issue 3 (solved afterwards):
* Also, there is a (potential) problem: on VM_MANYPROTS vmas, in
handle_pte_fault(), if the PTE is present we unconditionally return
VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV, because the PTE was already up-to-date.
This is removed in next patch, because it's wrong for 2 reasons:
1) isn't thread safe - it's possible the fault occurred when the PTE was not
installed and the PTE has been later installed by fault from another thread.
2) This has proven to be a bit strict, at least for UML - so this may break
other arches too (only for new functionality). At least, peculiar ones - this
problem was due to handle_mm_fault() called for TLB faults rather than PTE
faults. I'm leaving this note for reference, if any other arch does similar
strange things.
=== Implementation and tradeoff notes:
* do_file_page installs the PTE and doesn't check the fault type, if it
was wrong, then it'll do another fault and die only then. However next patch
removes this peculiarity.
* I've made sure do_no_page to fault in pages with their *exact* permissions
for non-uniform VMAs.
Actually, the code already works so for shared vmas, since vma->vm_page_prot
is (supposed to be) already writable when the VMA is. Hope this doesn't vary
across different arches.
However, for future possible handling of private mappings, this may be
needed again.
* For checking, we simply reuse the standard protection_map, by creating a
pte_t value with the vma->vm_page_prot protection and testing directly
pte_{read,write,exec} on it.
I use the physical frame number "0" to create the PTE, even if this isn't
probably realistic, but I assume that pfn_pte() and the access macros will
work anyway.
Changes are included for the i386, x86_64 and UML handler.
