Subject: [PATCH 2/2] mm, oom: fix potential data corruption when oom_reaper races with writer

From: Michal Hocko <mhocko@...e.com>

Wenwei Tao has noticed that our current assumption that the oom victim
is dying and never doing any visible changes after it dies, and so the
oom_reaper can tear it down, is not entirely true.

__task_will_free_mem consider a task dying when SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT
is set but do_group_exit sends SIGKILL to all threads _after_ the
flag is set. So there is a race window when some threads won't have
fatal_signal_pending while the oom_reaper could start unmapping the
address space. Moreover some paths might not check for fatal signals
before each PF/g-u-p/copy_from_user.

We already have a protection for oom_reaper vs. PF races by checking
MMF_UNSTABLE. This has been, however, checked only for kernel threads
(use_mm users) which can outlive the oom victim. A simple fix would be
to extend the current check in handle_mm_fault for all tasks but that
wouldn't be sufficient because the current check assumes that a kernel
thread would bail out after EFAULT from get_user*/copy_from_user and
never re-read the same address which would succeed because the PF path
has established page tables already. This seems to be the case for the
only existing use_mm user currently (virtio driver) but it is rather
fragile in general.

This is even more fragile in general for more complex paths such as
generic_perform_write which can re-read the same address more times
(e.g. iov_iter_copy_from_user_atomic to fail and then
iov_iter_fault_in_readable on retry). Therefore we have to implement
MMF_UNSTABLE protection in a robust way and never make a potentially
corrupted content visible. That requires to hook deeper into the PF
path and check for the flag _every time_ before a pte for anonymous
memory is established (that means all !VM_SHARED mappings).

The corruption can be triggered artificially [1] but there doesn't seem
to be any real life bug report. The race window should be quite tight
to trigger most of the time.
