[PATCH RFC 0/4] landlock: add LANDLOCK_SCOPE_MEMFD_EXEC execution

by Abhinav Saxena

This patch series introduces LANDLOCK_SCOPE_MEMFD_EXEC, a new Landlock scoping mechanism that restricts execution of anonymous memory file descriptors (memfd) created via memfd_create(2). This addresses security gaps where processes can bypass W^X policies and execute arbitrary code through anonymous memory objects. Fixes: https://github.com/landlock-lsm/linux/issues/37 SECURITY PROBLEM ================ Current Landlock filesystem restrictions do not cover memfd objects, allowing processes to: 1. Read-to-execute bypass: Create writable memfd, inject code, then execute via mmap(PROT_EXEC) or direct execve() 2. Anonymous execution: Execute code without touching the filesystem via execve("/proc/self/fd/N") where N is a memfd descriptor 3. Cross-domain access violations: Pass memfd between processes to bypass domain restrictions These scenarios can occur in sandboxed environments where filesystem access is restricted but memfd creation remains possible. IMPLEMENTATION ============== The implementation adds hierarchical execution control through domain scoping: Core Components: - is_memfd_file(): Reliable memfd detection via "memfd:" dentry prefix - domain_is_scoped(): Cross-domain hierarchy checking (moved to domain.c) - LSM hooks: mmap_file, file_mprotect, bprm_creds_for_exec - Creation-time restrictions: hook_file_alloc_security Security Matrix: Execution decisions follow domain hierarchy rules preventing both same-domain bypass attempts and cross-domain access violations while preserving legitimate hierarchical access patterns. Domain Hierarchy with LANDLOCK_SCOPE_MEMFD_EXEC: =============================================== Root (no domain) - No restrictions | +-- Domain A [SCOPE_MEMFD_EXEC] Layer 1 | +-- memfd_A (tagged with Domain A as creator) | | | +-- Domain A1 (child) [NO SCOPE] Layer 2 | | +-- Inherits Layer 1 restrictions from parent | | +-- memfd_A1 (can create, inherits restrictions) | | +-- Domain A1a [SCOPE_MEMFD_EXEC] Layer 3 | | +-- memfd_A1a (tagged with Domain A1a) | | | +-- Domain A2 (child) [SCOPE_MEMFD_EXEC] Layer 2 | +-- memfd_A2 (tagged with Domain A2 as creator) | +-- CANNOT access memfd_A1 (different subtree) | +-- Domain B [SCOPE_MEMFD_EXEC] Layer 1 +-- memfd_B (tagged with Domain B as creator) +-- CANNOT access ANY memfd from Domain A subtree Execution Decision Matrix: ======================== Executor-> | A | A1 | A1a | A2 | B | Root Creator | | | | | | ------------|-----|----|-----|----|----|----- Domain A | X | X | X | X | X | Y Domain A1 | Y | X | X | X | X | Y Domain A1a | Y | Y | X | X | X | Y Domain A2 | Y | X | X | X | X | Y Domain B | X | X | X | X | X | Y Root | Y | Y | Y | Y | Y | Y Legend: Y = Execution allowed, X = Execution denied Scenarios Covered: - Direct mmap(PROT_EXEC) on memfd files - Two-stage mmap(PROT_READ) + mprotect(PROT_EXEC) bypass attempts - execve("/proc/self/fd/N") anonymous execution - execveat() and fexecve() file descriptor execution - Cross-process memfd inheritance and IPC passing TESTING ======= All patches have been validated with: - scripts/checkpatch.pl --strict (clean) - Selftests covering same-domain restrictions, cross-domain hierarchy enforcement, and regular file isolation - KUnit tests for memfd detection edge cases DISCLAIMER ========== My understanding of Landlock scoping semantics may be limited, but this implementation reflects my current understanding based on available documentation and code analysis.

[PATCH v8 0/6] use per-vma locks for /proc/pid/maps reads

by Suren Baghdasaryan

Reading /proc/pid/maps requires read-locking mmap_lock which prevents any other task from concurrently modifying the address space. This guarantees coherent reporting of virtual address ranges, however it can block important updates from happening. Oftentimes /proc/pid/maps readers are low priority monitoring tasks and them blocking high priority tasks results in priority inversion. Locking the entire address space is required to present fully coherent picture of the address space, however even current implementation does not strictly guarantee that by outputting vmas in page-size chunks and dropping mmap_lock in between each chunk. Address space modifications are possible while mmap_lock is dropped and userspace reading the content is expected to deal with possible concurrent address space modifications. Considering these relaxed rules, holding mmap_lock is not strictly needed as long as we can guarantee that a concurrently modified vma is reported either in its original form or after it was modified. This patchset switches from holding mmap_lock while reading /proc/pid/maps to taking per-vma locks as we walk the vma tree. This reduces the contention with tasks modifying the address space because they would have to contend for the same vma as opposed to the entire address space. Previous version of this patchset [1] tried to perform /proc/pid/maps reading under RCU, however its implementation is quite complex and the results are worse than the new version because it still relied on mmap_lock speculation which retries if any part of the address space gets modified. New implementaion is both simpler and results in less contention. Note that similar approach would not work for /proc/pid/smaps reading as it also walks the page table and that's not RCU-safe. Paul McKenney's designed a test [2] to measure mmap/munmap latencies while concurrently reading /proc/pid/maps. The test has a pair of processes scanning /proc/PID/maps, and another process unmapping and remapping 4K pages from a 128MB range of anonymous memory. At the end of each 10 second run, the latency of each mmap() or munmap() operation is measured, and for each run the maximum and mean latency is printed. The map/unmap process is started first, its PID is passed to the scanners, and then the map/unmap process waits until both scanners are running before starting its timed test. The scanners keep scanning until the specified /proc/PID/maps file disappears. The latest results from Paul: Stock mm-unstable, all of the runs had maximum latencies in excess of 0.5 milliseconds, and with 80% of the runs' latencies exceeding a full millisecond, and ranging up beyond 4 full milliseconds. In contrast, 99% of the runs with this patch series applied had maximum latencies of less than 0.5 milliseconds, with the single outlier at only 0.608 milliseconds. From a median-performance (as opposed to maximum-latency) viewpoint, this patch series also looks good, with stock mm weighing in at 11 microseconds and patch series at 6 microseconds, better than a 2x improvement.

They are designed to detect any unexpected data tearing while performing some common address space modifications (vma split, resize and remap). Even before these changes, reading /proc/pid/maps might have inconsistent data because the file is read page-by-page with mmap_lock being dropped between the pages. An example of user-visible inconsistency can be that the same vma is printed twice: once before it was modified and then after the modifications. For example if vma was extended, it might be found and reported twice. What is not expected is to see a gap where there should have been a vma both before and after modification. This patchset increases the chances of such tearing, therefore it's even more important now to test for unexpected inconsistencies. In [3] Lorenzo identified the following possible vma merging/splitting scenarios: Merges with changes to existing vmas: 1 Merge both - mapping a vma over another one and between two vmas which can be merged after this replacement; 2. Merge left full - mapping a vma at the end of an existing one and completely over its right neighbor; 3. Merge left partial - mapping a vma at the end of an existing one and partially over its right neighbor; 4. Merge right full - mapping a vma before the start of an existing one and completely over its left neighbor; 5. Merge right partial - mapping a vma before the start of an existing one and partially over its left neighbor; Merges without changes to existing vmas: 6. Merge both - mapping a vma into a gap between two vmas which can be merged after the insertion; 7. Merge left - mapping a vma at the end of an existing one; 8. Merge right - mapping a vma before the start end of an existing one; Splits 9. Split with new vma at the lower address; 10. Split with new vma at the higher address; If such merges or splits happen concurrently with the /proc/maps reading we might report a vma twice, once before the modification and once after it is modified: Case 1 might report overwritten and previous vma along with the final merged vma; Case 2 might report previous and the final merged vma; Case 3 might cause us to retry once we detect the temporary gap caused by shrinking of the right neighbor; Case 4 might report overritten and the final merged vma; Case 5 might cause us to retry once we detect the temporary gap caused by shrinking of the left neighbor; Case 6 might report previous vma and the gap along with the final marged vma; Case 7 might report previous and the final merged vma; Case 8 might report the original gap and the final merged vma covering the gap; Case 9 might cause us to retry once we detect the temporary gap caused by shrinking of the original vma at the vma start; Case 10 might cause us to retry once we detect the temporary gap caused by shrinking of the original vma at the vma end; In all these cases the retry mechanism prevents us from reporting possible temporary gaps.

[PATCH v2 0/6] VMM can handle guest SEA via KVM_EXIT_ARM_SEA

by Jiaqi Yan

Problem ======= When host APEI is unable to claim synchronous external abort (SEA) during stage-2 guest abort, today KVM directly injects an async SError into the VCPU then resumes it. The injected SError usually results in unpleasant guest kernel panic. One of the major situation of guest SEA is when VCPU consumes recoverable uncorrected memory error (UER), which is not uncommon at all in modern datacenter servers with large amounts of physical memory. Although SError and guest panic is sufficient to stop the propagation of corrupted memory there is room to recover from an UER in a more graceful manner. Proposed Solution ================= Alternatively KVM can replay the SEA to the faulting VCPU, via existing KVM_SET_VCPU_EVENTS API. If the memory poison consumption or the fault that cause SEA is not from guest kernel, the blast radius can be limited to the consuming or faulting guest userspace process, so the VM can keep running. In addition, instead of doing under the hood without involving userspace, there are benefits to redirect the SEA to VMM: - VM customers care about the disruptions caused by memory errors, and VMM usually has the responsibility to start the process of notifying the customers of memory error events in their VMs. For example some cloud provider emits a critical log in their observability UI [1], and provides playbook for customers on how to mitigate disruptions to their workloads. - VMM can protect future memory error consumption by unmapping the poisoned pages from stage-2 page table with KVM userfault, or by splitting the memslot that contains the poisoned guest pages [2]. - VMM can keep track of SEA events in the VM. When VMM thinks the status on the host or the VM is bad enough, e.g. number of distinct SEAs exceeds a threshold, it can restart the VM on another healthy host. - Behavior parity with x86 architecture. When machine check exception (MCE) is caused by VCPU, kernel or KVM signals userspace SIGBUS to let VMM either recover from the MCE, or terminate itself with VM. The prior RFC proposes to implement SIGBUS on arm64 as well, but Marc preferred VCPU exit over signal [3]. However, implementation aside, returning SEA to VMM is on par with returning MCE to VMM. Once SEA is redirected to VMM, among other actions, VMM is encouraged to inject external aborts into the faulting VCPU, which is already supported by KVM on arm64. We notice injecting instruction abort is not fully supported by KVM_SET_VCPU_EVENTS. Complement it in the patchset. New UAPIs ========= This patchset introduces following userspace-visiable changes to empower VMM to control what happens next for SEA on guest memory: - KVM_CAP_ARM_SEA_TO_USER. While taking SEA, if userspace has enabled this new capability at VM creation, and the SEA is not caused by memory allocated for stage-2 translation table, instead of injecting SError, return KVM_EXIT_ARM_SEA to userspace. - KVM_EXIT_ARM_SEA. This is the VM exit reason VMM gets. The details about the SEA is provided in arm_sea as much as possible, including sanitized ESR value at EL2, if guest virtual and physical addresses (GPA and GVA) are available and the values if available. - KVM_CAP_ARM_INJECT_EXT_IABT. VMM today can inject external data abort to VCPU via KVM_SET_VCPU_EVENTS API. However, in case of instruction abort, VMM cannot inject it via KVM_SET_VCPU_EVENTS. KVM_CAP_ARM_INJECT_EXT_IABT is just a natural extend to KVM_CAP_ARM_INJECT_EXT_DABT that tells VMM KVM_SET_VCPU_EVENTS now supports external instruction abort. * From v1 [4]: - Rebased on commit 4d62121ce9b5 ("KVM: arm64: vgic-debug: Avoid dereferencing NULL ITE pointer"). - Sanitize ESR_EL2 before reporting it to userspace. - Do not do KVM_EXIT_ARM_SEA when SEA is caused by memory allocated to stage-2 translation table.

[PATCH 0/7] Replace "__auto_type" with "auto"

by H. Peter Anvin

"auto" was defined as a keyword back in the K&R days, but as a storage type specifier. No one ever used it, since it was and is the default storage type for local variables. C++11 recycled the keyword to allow a type to be declared based on the type of an initializer. This was finally adopted into standard C in C23. gcc and clang provide the "__auto_type" alias keyword as an extension for pre-C23, however, there is no reason to pollute the bulk of the source base with this temporary keyword; instead define "auto" as a macro unless the compiler is running in C23+ mode. This macro is added in <linux/compiler_types.h> because that header is included in some of the tools headers, wheres <linux/compiler.h> is not as it has a bunch of very kernel-specific things in it. --- arch/nios2/include/asm/uaccess.h | 4 ++-- arch/x86/include/asm/bug.h | 2 +- arch/x86/include/asm/string_64.h | 6 +++--- arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess_64.h | 2 +- fs/proc/inode.c | 16 ++++++++-------- include/linux/cleanup.h | 4 ++-- include/linux/compiler.h | 2 +- include/linux/compiler_types.h | 13 +++++++++++++ include/linux/minmax.h | 6 +++--- tools/testing/selftests/bpf/prog_tests/socket_helpers.h | 9 +++++++-- tools/virtio/linux/compiler.h | 2 +- 11 files changed, 42 insertions(+), 24 deletions(-)

[PATCH RFC 0/3] selftests/landlock: scoping abstractions

by Abhinav Saxena

Hi all, I was starting to work on the memfd-exec[1] feature and observed that Landlock's scoped-IPC features (abstract UNIX sockets and signals) follow a consistent high-level model, which I'm calling a resource-accessor pattern: Resource Process <-> Accessor Process - Resource process: owns or manages the asset - socket creator (bind/accept) - signal handler - memfd creator - Accessor process: attempts to use the asset - socket client (connect/sendto) - signal sender - memfd executor RESOURCE-ACCESSOR PATTERN FUNDAMENTALS ====================================== This pattern appears fundamental to Landlock scoping because: 1. Consistent enforcement model: Landlock restrictions are enforced only on the accessor side; the resource side remains unconstrained across all scope types. 2. Reflects actual security boundaries: In practice, sandboxed processes typically need to access resources created by other processes, not the reverse. 3. Scalable design: This model works consistently whether processes are in parent-child relationships or independent peer domains. 4. Real-world usage patterns: Container runtimes and sandbox orchestrators routinely start multiple workers that restrict themselves independently. CURRENT TEST COVERAGE GAP ========================= Existing self-tests cover hierarchical resource <-> accessor pairs but do not exercise the case where each task enters an independent domain. While 'sibling_domain' tests exist, they still use parent-child relationship patterns rather than true peer domains. Current Coverage (Linear Hierarchies Only): ------------------------------------------- Type 1: Parent-Child (scoped_domains) P1 ---- P2 Type 2: Three Generations (scoped_vs_unscoped) P1 ---- P2 ---- P3 Variations tested for both types: - No domains - Various scoped domain combinations - Nested domains within inherited domains - Mixed domain types (SCOPE vs OTHER vs NONE) Missing Coverage (True Sibling Scenarios): ------------------------------------------ Root | +-- Child A [various domain types] | +-- Child B [various domain types] Missing test scenarios: - A <-> B cross-sibling communication - Mixed sibling domain combinations - Sibling isolation enforcement - Parent -> A, Parent -> B differential access SOLUTION ======== This series implements the missing sibling pattern using the resource-accessor model. The tests create a fork tree that looks like this: coordinator (no domain) | +-- resource_proc (Domain X) /* owns the resource */ | +-- accessor_proc (Domain Y) /* tries to access */ This directly addresses the missing coverage by creating two independent child processes that establish peer domains, rather than the hierarchical parent-child domains covered by existing tests. Both children call landlock_restrict_self() for the first time, so their struct landlock_domain->parent pointers are NULL, creating true peer domains. The harness exposes four test variants: Variant name | Resource domain | Accessor domain | Result -------------------|-----------------|-----------------|---------- none_to_none | none | none | ALLOW none_to_scoped | none | scoped | DENY scoped_to_none | scoped | none | ALLOW scoped_to_scoped | scoped | scoped (peer) | DENY The scoped_to_scoped case was missing from current coverage. TESTING ======= All patches apply cleanly to v6.14-rc2 and pass on landlock/master. The helpers are small and re-use the existing kselftest_harness.h fixture/variant pattern. All patches have been validated with scripts/checkpatch.pl --strict and show no warnings. This series introduces **no kernel changes**, only selftests additions. Feedback very welcome.

[PATCH 00/14] vdso: Add support for auxiliary clocks

Extend the vDSO for fast-path access to auxiliary clocks (CLOCK_AUX). The implementation is based on the generic vDSO infrastructure and works for all its supported architectures. Namely x86, arm, arm64, riscv, powerpc, loongarch and s390. No changes to userspace are necessary. Based on timers/ptp of tip.git. This also depends on v6.16-rc2 *exactly*. The specific dependency is commit 11fcf368506d ("uapi: bitops: use UAPI-safe variant of BITS_PER_LONG again"), which is available in v6.16-rc2. Unfortunately that got broken again in v6.16-rc3 by commit fc92099902fb ("tools headers: Synchronize linux/bits.h with the kernel sources"). Another fix for this is pending [0] and should make it into v6.16.

Fix mem_usage error in previous version - Add min_qlen_step to the dualpi2 attribute as the minimum queue length in number of packets in the L-queue to start step threshold marking. In previous versions, this value was fixed to 2, so the step threshold was applied to mark packets in the L queue only when the queue length of the L queue was greater than or equal to 2 packets. This will cause larger queuing delays for L4S traffic at low rates (<20Mbps). So we parameterize it and change the default value to 0.
