Subject: [PATCH v8] oom_kill.c: futex: Don't OOM reap the VMA containing the robust_list_head
The pthread struct is allocated on PRIVATE|ANONYMOUS memory [1] which can
be targeted by the oom reaper. This mapping is used to store the futex
robust list head; the kernel does not keep a copy of the robust list and
instead references a userspace address to maintain the robustness during
a process death. A race can occur between exit_mm and the oom reaper that
allows the oom reaper to free the memory of the futex robust list before
the exit path has handled the futex death:
CPU1 CPU2
------------------------------------------------------------------------
page_fault
do_exit "signal"
wake_oom_reaper
oom_reaper
oom_reap_task_mm (invalidates mm)
exit_mm
exit_mm_release
futex_exit_release
futex_cleanup
exit_robust_list
get_user (EFAULT- can't access memory)
If the get_user EFAULT's, the kernel will be unable to recover the
waiters on the robust_list, leaving userspace mutexes hung indefinitely.
Use the robust_list address stored in the kernel to skip the VMA that holds
it, allowing a successful futex_cleanup.
Theoretically a failure can still occur if there are locks mapped as
PRIVATE|ANON; however, the robust futexes are a best-effort approach.
This patch only strengthens that best-effort.
The following case can still fail:
robust head (skipped) -> private lock (reaped) -> shared lock (skipped)
